Fallout Mafia - Commonwealth Edition (Day 8)

[davesaz]

Oh great, now instead of just RC being an egomaniac we have two of 'em.

Oh great, now instead of just RC being an egomaniac we have two of 'em.

who do you think we should lynch?

[OnTheMark]

I think we've done it

I think we've made a second undertale

Can I opt out of that

You’re only making it an Undertale by refusing to lynch scum.

I am 100% telling you Dave will be lynched.

You can join on and progress the game forward, or you can complain about not getting Dave out of this, but it is happening. If people would use common sense this wouldn’t be difficult.

[Ankamius]

And if we get scum lynches every day it 100% doesn’t matter if it’s brute force or not.

You’re reeking of scum who can’t breathe here

The problem

Is that those lynches aren't natural

Brute forcing lynches creates a vacuum

That vacuum makes flips give less information
That vacuum makes everyone's reactions unnatural and harder to read
That vacuum

makes the game difficult for everybody else.

[OnTheMark]

Oh great, now instead of just RC being an egomaniac we have two of 'em.

I am not an egomaniac hell I don’t pretend to have this game solved.

Also instead of helping you’re attacking me.

You’re pulling a Maxous in Undertale.

At least we are going though the stages faster.

Hooray!

[Ankamius]

There's a fucking reason I was trying to bait a wagon on myself going into day 2

That vaccuum makes flips give less information. Iioa is a scum tell even if it did apply which it doesn’t.
People are reacting to the vaccuum and reads happen off of that. Again if you sign up for a mechanics game and don’t want to acknowledge mechanics that isn’t a game state problem.

The vaccuum only makes it harder for scum. Mechanics only get brought up as issues when scum complain.

If we keep dropping scum it legit doesn’t matter.

This is still day two. Why are you?

[Ankamius]

oh ffs

[OnTheMark]

So Davesaz? You know I won’t let this go Ank. Dave is being lynched today.

[Ankamius]

I'm going to fuck off before I go full bitch mode and then replace out

see you guys tomorrow

[projectmatt]

The Real Way™ to play mafia is to make the game as boring as possible

easier for scum.

I'll give reads, fear not. I've already given plenty of them if you're willing to actually read.
Whether town will be smart enough to actually follow them is another question.
It's going on 11:30 and I have a 6am conference call. Don't get in too much of a rush.

[Ankamius]

btw matt don't bother

Mark and I had this back and forth for literally like 2 months in undertale

The only reason it ever stopped was because they got lynched

[OnTheMark]

I am going to bed. You’re literally just being antagonistic to spam. And I won’t contribute to that.

You’re being an antitown clown who refuses to acknowledge reality.

Dave is the lynch today.

Any temporary scum led counterwagon will die a very quick death as none of the conf/very likely town will ever join it.

[projectmatt]

i greatly look forward to another 2 months of this, then

OnTheMark: Pop quiz
You RB someone tonight and there is no kill. Do you

automatically

lynch them tomorrow?
If your answer is yes, what is scum's

optimum

strategy for the rest of the game?

Yes.
Kill someone as otherwise they lose.

[OnTheMark]

Myself ETL/Jingle hydra and Kaede are never lynch pile

If scum don’t kill they lose.

So yes if scum don’t kill we lynch whoever I block

[projectmatt]

i think i understand now, onthemark. in fact, i've developed a comprehensive strategic guide to help lead us through the rest of this game:

SCUMHUNTING = BAD

MECHANICS = GOOD

Quit spamming. Mechanics are a part of scumhunting

Facts > Reads though

[projectmatt]

honestly, why do mafia games even have talking? i think we should just automate the process of lynching the person with the highest statistical likelihood of being mafia and be done with it

[projectmatt]

Quit spamming.

you joined this game 2 days ago and you have 160 posts

[OnTheMark]

I agree with lynching the highest probability to be scum. That is what towns do. However the talking before mechanics come in helps influence the actions needed for town to win.
