Why?
Aes Sedai have to tell the truth and darkfriends have to lie, so we can use that to our advantage.

Maybe later in the game if we find a player is AS, we can examine their posts as we will have had assurance that they were not lying.
At this point, though, you'd have to out the AS to use the fact that they're not lying, and outing them at this point is dumb.-

Dude, the idea of the game is that scum have to lie because of their allegiance, and Aes Sedai and town can tell the truth!sajin wrote:"IF scum HAD to lie, then I would totally support your theories (and every game of mafia would be incredibly easy).

I don't want to out any Aes Sedai, it seems most people are against my idea, I just thought I would put it out there.
I don't see any difference in my idea and the thought of getting everyone to say "I am not scum" like people were doing earlier, and in the mini WOT, I'm just trying to take make sure the questions are foolproof and peple can't avoid telling the truth.Indubitable-

@ Kison: Yes you were correct
This whole post seems filler, I mean the riddle doesn't even seem very relevant and it's just, I'm not even sure where the start of it came from. I don't really even understand it, it seems your logic is flawed tho' as is the analogy to the riddle.xxFabianxx wrote: I wasn't making a filler post, I can't figure out what the question would be, but I do know that with some smarts it could be effective.
Bob is correct in 117 too in that there's going to be nothing like that, as it wouldn't make sense.
MacavityLock; Verin is an enigma, for sure. But we still don't really know enough about her, in the books. She's obviously not B.A. but yeh, still I think. Let's not hypothesise too much about possible roles anyway. P

Fabian, from what I can work out your idea is quite frankly not very good. It's not 100% making sense to me on how you felt we could exploit it, but suffice to say I think it'll do more harm and good.are you thinking of me when you're with somebody else?-

Yes, VanDamien could eventually become not-town. However, VanDamien wasn't bound to the three oaths.ML wrote:Given Van Damien's role from last game (which tl;dr was a town role which may have gone insane), I didn't think it was out of the realm of possibility that there was a role bound by the no-lying post restriction that currently has a town win cond but may not in the future. If someone refused to say the second part of the sentence ("I am not aware of any circumstance in which I do not win with town."), that would be an indication that we'd probably need to either immediately or eventually get rid of them.
The ONLY people bound to the three oaths are Aes Sedai, and the ONLY people in the entire books that could not lie were Aes Sedai. So, unless you can figure some reason why an Aes Sedai would suddenly become a SK or other non-town role, then this whole pursuit was pointless.
My beef with this is different though. ML, being in the mini, should have known that last time all this little plan did was distract the town and cause arguments over things that did not help scumhunting in the least.
So, I say,for distracting the town.FoS:MacavityLock
Fabian wrote:I do think it can only harm the game if people come in with a dislike towards a certain player simply for something as simple as a disagrement about playstyle.
WIt's a valid point, we're all human and we have bias, and I don't think we should have been allowed to speak before the game started, that's why I didn't, and I think what I said before is a valid point, not about this game but about mafia games in general.
I apologise for being vague before when I said we should be more clear with our questions, but I did actually have a point about the questions, I just failed to convey it.
What I was hinting at was the age old riddle.
"You stand at a fork in the road. Next to each of the two forks, there stands a guard. You know the following things: 1. One path leads to Paradise, the other to Death.
One of the two guards always tells the truth, and the other guard always lies.
Unfortunately, it is impossible for you to distinguish between the two guards.
You may ask one question to one guard. What do you ask?
I'm honestly not sure how to ask the question in this situation, but if we have a group who can't lie and a group who lie, we can use this, right?
I wasn't making a filler post, I can't figure out what the question would be, but I do know that with some smarts it could be effective.
Ok, this is bad. BAD. The group who can't lie is Aes Sedai,pro-town. Any sort of situation where we out the honest people isan attempt to out pro-town power roles.
[quote="Fabian]Aes Sedai have to tell the truth and darkfriends have to lie, so we can use that to our advantage.[/quote]
NO! WRONG! Aes Sedai have to tell the truth. Darkfriends do whatever the hell they want to. Your strategy here will ONLY out Aes Sedai. Bad bad bad baaaad.
I think we need to stop discussing schemes and plans to try and break the game in Day 1, and instead try looking for scum, yes? All this speculation is starting to make me uneasy...ShowMy mini normal is running! Yaaaay!

Right now? On Day 1 with 6 pages of role speculation and bullshit about how best we can do the scum's job by outing potential Aes Sedai for them? Pretty damn much everyone stupid enough to take part in such a worthless sidetrack, because the more of this deliberately obfuscating crap clogs up the thread, the harder finding scum becomes, and I'm pretty damn sure that most of this crap is coming from scum.-

It looks like people have stopped coming to the town now, but no one is leaving. You would think they all intended to live here now... Or die here.

No, I was FoSing Shadow because I wasn't sure what he was getting at, and all I really wanted him to do was to explain what he wanted to happen a little more clearly, now if he has done that, I will gladly take off the FoS. My vote on Fabian is completely for trying to out Aes Sedai and for trying to find a way to implement a plan that would be very harmful to the town.
Looking back on the thread now, it has become clear that Shadow doesn't want to out the AS, so with that, I apologize for any confusion as I had missed Shadow's post where it was clear he didn't want to out the AS.UnFoS2-1 as Town (including the 39 minute final day)

It also (in?)directly avoids the question by not giving any names.
Could you elaborate a bit, maybe instead of making vague statements about crap coming from scum.are you thinking of me when you're with somebody else?-

ugh, this game is moving fast, and the fact that I've never even heard of Wheel of Time is making this difficult. I'll read the topic and post some opinions soon. Question though: are these Aes Sedai guys bad guys or good guys in the books?Taking a temporary retirement from playing mafia games... damn you invitationals.

Where do you see that he says that he doesn't want to out the AS?
Why are you so quick to trust that if you thought he was before? Of course he's going to deny it.
I have to agree with Isacc here about the backpedaling.jdodge1019: hasjghsalghsakljghs is from vermont
jdodge1019: vermont is made of liberal freaks and cows
jdodge1019: he's not a liberal
