Open 217: Assassin in the (Amish) Palace OVER

[Amished]

At least I believe it counts as a fully modded game >_> That makes this my second! Woo!

Now I'm less burdened and more "experienced"... Thanks?

[OpposedForce]

Gg guys even if it was quick and I had one post the whole game. Don't worry zoraster it happens mate. GG

[Col.Cathart]

So, uhmm... Yay us, I guess...

Awkward... But win is a win

[Seraphim]

I wanted to enjoy this. Dammit.

lol, that was funny.

[Chronopie]

Why'd you vote the king and say all lurkers must die?

[Chronopie]

and I laugh that the king never even confirmed

[Chronopie]

EBWOP: He posted half way down Page 2, but never was bolded on post #1

[Seraphim]

I voted the king to smokescreen the assassin, duh. and the King did, in fact, post once.

[ReaperCharlie]

Biggest fail of all time. rofl <3

[zoraster]

well, for what it's worth, this suddenly becomes the #2 smallest mini game ever played, according to the records page. :-/

[Super Awesome Mega Zord!]

Geez, finally. I thought this game would never end.

[farside22]

best game read every. Zor wins my heart for epic fail.

[Parama]

I lol'ed. Do another one of these please

[Col.Cathart]

Yay, now I'm a part of the game which will be in records book ^^ *is happy*

[XScorpion]

I knew seraphim was confirmed guard, I hope the rest of you caught that after his obvious smokescreen vote.

GG lol, epic fail ftw

[wolframnhart]

not only do i wish i was apart of this game now, but i wish there was some kind of award to nominate zoraster for Lol

[horrordude0215]

That. Was. Amazing. lol

[tumescence]

Let the record show that I did confirm my role PM, but wasn't, and don't need to be, bolded.

Yes, another adeptly handled and well-deserved victory!

[zoraster]

oh, and all this overlooks how damn clever I thought I was being. I thought RC was trying to find out who his guards were with the "who's with me" line

[RedCoyote]

...For King... and... country...

*dies*

Good game, everybody; I wish we would've got to play longer! Thanks to the Mod.

[Red Star]

I laughed, such a short and hilarious game. Good job, guys. =P

[SensFan]

For what its worth, if you're not willing to quicklynch without discussion, don't join AitP. If you talk, you lose.

[zoraster]

Let's assume none of this takes any discussion and is decided on beforehand, the following is what I assume will maximize town's chances of winning:
Each new lynch a person is randomly selected by public dice roll. That person will select but will not discuss who the town will lynch. If he chooses the king, he is immediately lynched by the rest of the town. Just picking who to lynch by dice roll won't work because you might get the king and then you're left outing the king.

If you've got a better way of doing it, let me know. So a few assumptions:
1. Everyone has read their role pm fully
2. Everyone plays optimally (i.e. makes the smartest choice given the odds) at any time
3. When the assassin has been selected to be lynched, he will only actually BE lynched if he is the LAST person to see that he was the one chosen. If he is not, he will choose to shoot.



A little hard to see in my sloppy handwriting, but there you go. That is your game. Each and every time. So I'm not sure why you'd CHOOSE to play this way as every decision in the game would be dictated. Tell you what, I'll run the game according to the "no talking" approach, assuming that no one knows I'm the assassin.

Day 1:
Chronopie was picked to lead the lynch. Chronopie chooses Col.Cathart to lynch. Col.Cathart is lynched.

Day 2:
RedCoyote is picked to lead the lynch. RedCoyote chooses XScorpion to lynch. He is lynched.

Day 3:
RedCoyote is picked to lead the lynch again. RedCoyote chooses zoraster to lynch. Zoraster, the assassin rolls to see if he sees the choice last: he succeeds. He shoots Seraphim. Seraphim was not the King.

Town wins!

That was so much fun, let's play again!

Day 1:
Super Awesome Mega Pimp! is picked to lead the lynch. SAMP chooses RedCoyote to lynch.

Day 2:
XScorpion is picked to lead the lynch. XScorpion chooses SAMP to lynch.

Day 3:
tumescence is picked to lead the lynch. tumescence chooses Col.Cathart to lynch.

Day 4:
zoraster is picked to lead the lynch. zoraster chooses Chronopie to lynch.

Day 5:
OpposedForce is picked to lead the lynch. OpposedForce chooses zoraster to lynch. zoraster rolls to see if he sees it in time: he does! he shoots tumescence!

Assassin wins!

[zoraster]

by the way, i used random.org for those two games and just followed the chart for all choices.

[XScorpion]

I don't think the best strategy is to plan out who to lynch by die rolls, it's just to throw votes down and lynch as fast as possible. For example, maybe 3 guards or 2 guards and an assassin just vote for 3 random different people, then everyone else just piles on votes wherever they feel like and eventually just lynch one. This way the majority will never target the king, and you will never have a case where the assassin chooses the king for lynching and gets voted by rest of town.
