0A symbol for zero, a large dot likely to be the precursor of the still-current hollow symbol, is used throughout the Bakhshali manuscript, a practical manual on arithmetic for merchants.[39] In 2017, three samples from the manuscript were shown by radiocarbon dating to come from three different centuries: from AD 224–383, AD 680–779, and AD 885–993, making it South Asia’s oldest recorded use of the zero symbol.

General Rules
  1. The Basics

  2. All site-wide rules apply.
  3. Play to your win condition.
  4. Do not privately communicate with other players about this game, except where explicitly allowed, such as your team's private communication space.
  5. Be respectful of other players; do not insult them. Attack the argument, not the person.
  6. Do not quote your role PM; do not quote any private communication with other players. Do not pretend to quote your role PM or any private communication, as doing so will be treated as if you actually quoted them. Paraphrasing either of these is fine. This rule includes communication with your teammates;
    any private communication with teammates that is posted in this thread must be very clearly paraphrased, and not quoted
    .
  7. Do not use provable randomness.
  8. Do not use cryptography, robust steganography, invisible text, etc.
  9. As the moderator, I reserve the right to make any judgment call I deem fit, regardless of whether or not any explicit rule exists.
  1. During the Day

  2. Day phases will last 14 days.
  3. During the day, votes must be posted with either
    bold tags
    or VOTE: tags. Don't try to get tricky; if it looks like a vote and is bolded, I will count it as a vote. Any attempt to abuse voting with trick votes or fake votes will be punished harshly.
  4. When a majority of votes is reached, that player will be eliminated. If no majority exists at deadline, no elimination will occur.
  5. Prods will be issued upon 48 hours of inactivity; if unanswered after 24 hours, I will begin seeking a replacement. If the player posts in thread before a replacement is found, they will retain their spot.
  6. I may or may not grant deadline extensions if asked.
  1. During the Night

  2. All nights will last 48 hours.
  3. All night actions must be received by the deadline; if no action is received, or if an action is received after the deadline, no action will be taken.
  1. Setup specifications

  2. This game adheres to the Mafiascum normal game rules.
  3. Any private topics will be open at all times.
  4. There are 4 mafia players and 14 town players.


Sample role PM:

Vanilla TownieHello, NAME, and welcome to the Team Mafia 2021 Large Normal!

You are a
Vanilla Townie
.

Your only weapons are your voice and your vote.

You win when all mafia members are dead, and at least one town member remains alive.

Please confirm by PM to me (implosion) by stating your alignment and role.

The game thread can be found here. Good luck!

1In the philosophy of Plotinus (and that of other neoplatonists), The One is the ultimate reality and source of all existence.[8] Philo of Alexandria (20 BC – AD 50) regarded the number one as God's number, and the basis for all numbers ("De Allegoriis Legum," ii.12 [i.66]).

3Three is the only prime which is one less than a perfect square. Any other number which is n2 − 1 for some integer n is not prime, since it is (n − 1)(n + 1). This is true for 3 as well (with n = 2), but in this case the smaller factor is 1. If n is greater than 2, both n − 1 and n + 1 are greater than 1 so their product is not prime.

4Karl Popper outlined a tetradic schema to describe the growth of theories and, via generalization, also the emergence of new behaviors and living organisms: (1) problem, (2) tentative theory, (3) (attempted) error-elimination (especially by way of critical discussion), and (4) new problem(s). (See Popper's Objective Knowledge, 1972, revised 1979.)

6The evolution of our modern digit 6 appears rather simple when compared with the other digits. The modern 6 can be traced back to the Brahmi numerals of India, which are first known from the Edicts of Ashoka circa 250 BCE.[26][27][28][29] It was written in one stroke like a cursive lowercase e rotated 90 degrees clockwise. Gradually, the upper part of the stroke (above the central squiggle) became more curved, while the lower part of the stroke (below the central squiggle) became straighter. The Arabs dropped the part of the stroke below the squiggle. From there, the European evolution to our modern 6 was very straightforward, aside from a flirtation with a glyph that looked more like an uppercase G.[30]

7On the seven-segment displays of pocket calculators and digital watches, 7 is the digit with the most common graphic variation (1, 6 and 9 also have variant glyphs). Most calculators use three line segments, but on Sharp, Casio, and a few other brands of calculators, 7 is written with four line segments because, in Japan, Korea and Taiwan 7 is written with a "hook" on the left, as ① in the following illustration.

10Most countries issue coins and bills with a denomination of 10 (See e.g. 10 dollar note). Of these, the U.S. dime, with the value of ten cents, or one tenth of a dollar, derives its name from the meaning "one-tenth" − see Dime (United States coin)#Denomination history and etymology.

12Derived from Old English, twelf and tuelf are first attested in the 10th-century Lindisfarne Gospels' Book of John.[note 1][5] It has cognates in every Germanic language (e.g. German zwölf), whose Proto-Germanic ancestor has been reconstructed as *twaliƀi..., from *twa ("two") and suffix *-lif- or *-liƀ- of uncertain meaning.[5] It is sometimes compared with the Lithuanian dvýlika, although -lika is used as the suffix for all numbers from 11 to 19 (analogous to "-teen").[5] Every other Indo-European language instead uses a form of "two"+"ten", such as the Latin duōdecim.[5]

13Strikingly folkloric aspects of the number 13 have been noted in various cultures around the world: one theory is that this is due to the cultures employing lunar-solar calendars (there are approximately 12.41 lunations per solar year, and hence 12 "true months" plus a smaller, and often portentous, thirteenth month). This can be witnessed, for example, in the "Twelve Days of Christmas" of Western European tradition.[1]

Quebec has a different rating system for films.

16Saint Markandeya is said to have been granted to live to 16 years of age. When he turned sixteen, the god of death, Yama, came to look for him and fastened a noose around the saint. The saint hugged the idol of lord Shiva that he worshipped (which can be still found in the Amritaghateswarar-Abirami Temple in Thirukkadaiyur, Tamil Nadu, India.) As the noose was wrapped around both the saint and lord Shiva, this made the lord angry and he appeared in his fierce form and vanquished the lord of death, causing a brief catastrophe in the world where no one died. Eventually, lord Yama was revived and the saint Markandeya was made immortal to be of age sixteen forever.

18In Chinese tradition, 18 pronounced 十八 (shí bā) and is considered a lucky number due to similarity with 實發 (shì fā) 'definitely get rich', 'to get rich for sure'.[3]
According to applications of numerology in Judaism, the letters of the word chai ("living") add up to 18. Thus, 18 is considered a lucky number and many gifts for B'nai Mitzvot and weddings are in $18 increments.[4]

20In some countries, the number 20 is used as an index in measuring visual acuity. 20/20 indicates normal vision at 20 feet, although it is commonly used to mean "perfect vision". (Note that this applies only to countries using the Imperial system. The metric equivalent is 6/6.) When someone is able to see only after an event how things turned out, that person is often said to have had "20/20 hindsight".[12]

333333331 = 17 × 19607843
3333333331 = 673 × 4952947
33333333331 = 307 × 108577633
333333333331 = 19 × 83 × 211371803
3333333333331 = 523 × 3049 × 2090353
33333333333331 = 607 × 1511 × 1997 × 18199
333333333333331 = 181 × 1841620626151

3636 is both the square of six and a triangular number, making it a square triangular number.[1] It is the smallest square triangular number other than one, and it is also the only triangular number other than one whose square root is also a triangular number. It is also a circular number – a square number that ends with the same integer by itself (6×6=36).[citation needed]

5353 written in hexadecimal is 35, that is, the same characters used in the decimal representation, but reversed. Four additional multiples of 53 share this property: 371 = 17316, 5141 = 141516, 99481 = 1849916, and 8520280 = 082025816. Apart from the trivial case of single-digit decimals, no other number has this property.[4]

I'll extend deadline by 48 hours. No additional extension will be given. I'll be lenient for a bit with replacing for prods, but I'll still be handing them out normally (note that there's no replacement after 3 prods rule, so a prod that is replied to has no ill effect).

NOTE: I actually messed up action resolution this night. OkaPoka blocked Almost50, and I mistook the target. Ythan should not have received this PM, but I realized this just after sending the PM out, and decided the path of least harm was to simply treat announcing roles that are blocked as still sending messages for the remainder of the game (since this is technically not clarified on the wiki, though it should be). This never really affected anything so I don't feel too bad about the result.

no need for any result PMs, as the only person targeted by an announcing role is dying.

I'm happy to talk about the setup design for this one (or the other) if people want. It basically started with the announcing roles, with the idea being that all of those roles give interesting info to the person being targeted regardless of whether they're town or scum (e.g. Hopkirk and Oka getting targeted by the neapolitan told them both that they needed to fakeclaim real roles).

The announcing vanilla cop was not intended to be negative utility. Announcing, as I see it, isn't really negative utility in isolation, at least; you're informing someone that a role exists, but that's not a super exploitable piece of information. If you hit scum then you're telling them what they need to claim but that's not
negative utility
, it just means that you're forcing something they might not have wanted to do.

Part of the point of the role in this setup was to potentially synergize with the neapolitan; if the neap gets a not-a-VT result and the vanilla cop gets a vanilla result, then the scum is put in a nothing-i-can-claim-saves-me situation, though this would only work on the two goons.

I think the scumteam did a few things that were very impressive in this game. First off was pulling off the fakeclaim obviously; it kind of makes sense in the setup with symmetry with the announcing neapolitan being gated, the issue from a design perspective being that vanilla cop doesn't really need to be gated in that way. Hopkirk managing to find a fake breadcrumb out of whole cloth and present it believably was impressive. Second was associatives; I feel like scum did an unusually good job making associatives really muddy. I definitely don't envy luca or bell having to replace in with the context of the first game, though obviously as I said I am very grateful to both of them.

One potentially hilarious version of this that did not play out: if innocentvillager targeted Hopkirk n4 and everything else remained the same, Hopkirk would have gotten a PM saying "you were targeted by a vanilla cop" and probably had a moment of horrible panic before opening the thread and seeing he was dead.

(the thread is closed so i'm asking there)
By "between" you mean what was the idea of this one compared to the last one? It was basically an entirely different setup if so. The idea of the first one was large number of info roles that can maybe piece together something useful if they combine knowledge but with some of them belonging to scum.

The first setup had more iterations, this one I came up shortly after the first game got cancelled and it only needed like two changes (the neapolitan was originally ungated and the mafia activated bulletproof was originally some kind of mailman).

The first setup was actually originally conceived as a mini when I thought I'd be moderating a mini normal and changed to a large at some point, and the visitor was originally part of that mini. I'm not sure if I'm gonna release that thread but here's at least a tidbit from it where I'm talking about the compulsive visitor:
Would have the effect of making the town roles more potentially useful, adding in more play around claiming and counterclaiming, giving scum a modicum of negative utility over not being able to pick their killer fully the first couple nights, and giving scum a bit of ability to speculate about the setup or try to pull off a coordinated fakeclaim with the tracker if they're feeling spicy.
