The battlefield really did give the town an edge though.

We were able to zero in on some people right away.

That is also what makes the games fun.

If it was always the same...then it would get kinda boring.

 

 

Good game everyone.

And good job of modding to Narsis.

 

@Mole - please update the win/loss thread. :wink2:

actually the town made two incorrect assumptions regarding the battlefield. i'm actually somewhat still surprised you managed to catch scum using it after day 1...

 

Edit: and for the record: Kaziocore was a 1-shot vig.

I wanna play another game with a role.

 

What tip you off to shoot Alasdair?

That's pretty funny if we used the battlefield incorrectly but still managed to lynch scum.

What were the wrong assumptions?

Hehehehe

First of all, well played. I think you have improved greatly since the last time we played together. You had some highly valuable posts and of course you made a great decision to take out Alasdair. Overal, I'd say the calmer style makes you a much better player. Of course it is easier to stay calm if you don't catch any flack ;). I'd like to echo CD's question though. Why Alas? After the Kasa lynch, I was convinced that the scum were 3 out of CH, Ccabal, Nerau and Alas. CH was, of course, confirmed and out of the others, I would have picked Ccabal and Nerau over Alas. Not by much, but they were slightly higher on my scum radar. What made you go for Alas?

  • Author

i also need to give some serious congratz to ccabal. this was his first game i believe, but he made some great posts and excellent points.

 

as for the assumptions...:

 

First: post counts. yes there are some posts that i haven't counted. so the numbers they are using aren't completely accurate(although they are more or less within 5 posts per person).

 

Second: an assumption about how the battlefield percentages work. everyone so far has assumed that the modifier for the number of mafia posts is based on living players. however there is something they are missing:

 

ok let's assume for the sake of argument that there are 5 townies and 2 mafia left alive. if their assumption is correct and both the town and mafia have the exact same average number of posts, then what will the battlefield percentage be? here's a hint: it's 50%.

 

so then what happens if later in the game we have 1 townie and 2 mafia left alive. and again they have the exact same average number of posts. then what's the percentage? well guess what...it's 50%.

 

so we have a problem here. in order for the mafia to win they'd either need to kill all the townies or the win percentage for them would need to be around 60% or 55%. however, if it's that low then it'd be very easy for the mafia to win just by posting more than the townies. so then the townies win percentage would need to be low as well, 60% or maybe 70%. but now again if the town happens to overpower the mafia's posting, then they'll get an easy and early win. which leads to a very swingy game.

 

so i will allow you guys to try to figure out what the exact problem is with that assumption.

Day 1: 7-3

Day 2: 7-3

Night 2: 6-3

 

=================

I. Successful Kill

Day 3: 5-2

Day 4: 4-1

 

II. Failed Kill

Day 3: 4-3

Day 4: 3-2

 

III. Without Kill

Day 3: 5-3

Day 4: 4-2

 

I was actually thinking whether to use my kill now or later at that time.

What motivated me is that between II and III, the former has less people

which means more chances of getting the mafia.

 

Also, at that time I'm not yet convinced that Ccabal is really a scum (a little but not that much).

If I did not kill and the game leads to III and Ccabal was lynched, we will lose.

 

I chose Alasdair, although I was also thinking of killing Nerau, because

he was inactive and I'm afraid that later in the game, no one would vote them

because people have nothing posts really to analyze.

If I'm wrong, at least there's one less suspect for me.

 

From time to time, I'm tempted to give hints that I'm a vigilante especially

when it was told that there could be a serial killer.

I wanted to say that you're wrong or something ^_^

 

And thanks again Martino. I became conscious of what I post.

Unfortunately, this led to my suspicion of Kasabian which

led to his death.

 

Anyways, great game guys!

So what it really means is that mafia posts will always be multiplied by 7/3.

Is that correct?

 

in this case yes.

 

also it's worth noting: if we had two more players join i would have reworked the set up a bit to include a third party role :P

Ha ha...so you lucked out on the shot.

I thought you saw some tell from Alasdair.

Good shooting anyways.

 

 

Everyone's game has improved.

Or maybe I'm just getting worse.

I really couldn't scum-hunt this game.

Yeah :D

It was luck that Alasdair is an inactive scum.

 

That's one reason I'm not posting much. :P This may be futile, but I'm not really wanting to attract any attention from the Scumbags yet. I'd rather stay in the game a little longer than that.

In any case, for now...

 

Unvote

Vote: No-lynch

 

 

Because I'd rather reserve judgment for when I'm sure. I have a few ideas right now, but I'm going to wait on them.

 

Maybe his no-lynching and this part of his post made him suspicious.

Did someone think that I'm the killer of Alasdair during the game?

I said on day one that I'm suspicious of Alasdair and Kasabian.

I was only slightly suspicious of Kasabian but I put him there beside Alasdair

so people would not immediately think that I'm some vigilante or serial killer.

It just so happened that the next day, Kasabian became too defensive so he became more suspicious to me and

add the false doc claim of CH.

Yeah :D

It's nice to have a pro-town power role.

However, I find that I play better as a townie if I'm just a vanilla townie.

Maybe cuz I only got one pro-townie power role in all the games I've played.
