Mafia 34-Time Crisis(the Play)

[dirtydawg10]

Guess you're his next suspect

Maybe...I'm just mystified as to why you stating 17 made him think up a detailed response quoting exact numbers of evil, sniper and turn. When I read it I just thought you were referring to what I thought was the 3 players who haven't posted yet. 20-3=17.

The other thing that does not make sense about it is he read your post which said 17 and posted about 16 players. Sounds like he's guilty of the same thing. Oh well...maybe I'm just reading to much into his post. What do you guys think?

The terrorist can probably read and count. I'm not sure how my inability to do either makes me guilty but thanks for the response. It seems 4 is your answer to either 17 or 20 anyway.

It has nothing to do with you miscounting anything. You quoted, and were clearly referencing RB's post regarding good v. evil ratios in a 20-person game.

The fact you referred to it as a 17-person game makes it look like you could have '17' on the brain for some reason. Maybe that could be because it's 17 town v 3 scum at this point?

While this may not be much, combined with your heavy concentration on roleplay, and unwillingness to jump into the fray until confronted, it may actually say a lot.

For now, I vote to lynch Chill

Why did you quote a post that says 20 players then ask about a 17 player game?

From your post I'd say 16 innocents vs 3 terrorists + 1 sniper.

20 players usually a 3 to 1 split with 4 already mafia and 1 to be turned to make it 5 would fit the bill.

I retract my vote on Cap and vote to lynch Chill

So why does Chill think there are 17 players?

Is it too early for us to posts lists? :grinyes:

On the serious side, what is everyone's thought on those that choose not to vote or vote no one/yourself on the upcoming night #1?

voting no one night one could go either way for me for reasons already stated...

What are people's thoughts on those who go invisible mode, even though they're clearly posting? Been on my mind some.

No votes/altruistic votes are tough - it clearly hints at innocence/not wanting to lynch an innocent bystander - which then, means pretty much nothing, because mafioso's would jump on that seeming altruism as well. In that case, one would have to examine the context of communication... if that even tells you anything.

It's one of those great mysteries in life - kind of like how someone could name 99% of the mafia, in about two hours into the game. Perhaps that's the person who should be answering your question.

I've been invisible ever since I've been playing mafia...I just haven't changed back because I am lazy...

okay, I was thinking about this while at work so just bear with me...because of the game format we don't need to lynch all of the terrorists to win the game, just need the person with the bomb to survive until the time limit is up. So based on that we should all be careful not to get carried away and lynch people for dumb reasons and keep a sharp eye out as usual for any one pushing lynches based on weak reasons...they could be mafia digging for the bomb carrier. This is kinda why I am iffy about a no vote night one...the more citizens gone the better chance that the terrorists get the bomb...

This response does seem a little suspicious. Especially when the quote which says 20 is located just above your post. That is why I thought you were being sarcastic at first. Now you are making me think.

Ice & Chill are definitely on my radar right now too.

So for those of you who have played this type of game before what is likely number of terrorists in a 17 player game?

Maybe...I'm just mystified as to why you stating 17 made him think up a detailed response quoting exact numbers of evil, sniper and turn. When I read it I just thought you were referring to what I thought was the 3 players who haven't posted yet. 20-3=17.

Dawg how do you get that he was talking about 17 players that have posted so far from that quote?

Dawg I got 16 because he was counting the 3 on his team but not the sniper that is evil but not known to them.

I can see why Chill would be on your radar right now, but am curious as to why Ice is..... he's the one that brought the thought to the front in the first place.

Nah, it was just to get you talking



This has been the best exchange so far.

RE Ice: There really isn't a set number for the bad guys, but it's generally accepted as about 1/4 to 1/5 of the players are bad... depending on other power roles. So 4 (including the unknown sniper) isn't a terrible figure. However, we do have a pretty powerful good guy contingent as well. Also, the bad guys get a turn tonight... right?

RE Chill: Why ask this question? Coming from just about anyone, this would almost certainly be a bad guy trying to throw us off the trail. "Hey look, how can I be the bad guy, I don't even know how many there are."

RE Ice: On the other hand, why even answer this question. We don't know, we weren't told by the ref, so it could be almost anything from 2 to 12. Just giving a figure on this could be construed as a bad guy. "Hey look, I can't be the bad guy cause I said there should be 4 and there's 5."

This is the best stuff so far and as soon as Zsand pops in, I'll probably switch my vote to one of these two.

I'm never a fan of lynching for the sake of lynching. However I would like to know the odds of hitting a bad guy and that's why I asked.

Dawg I got 16 because he was counting the 3 on his team but not the sniper that is evil but not known to them.

Ice how do you KNOW that chill wasn't including the sniper? How do you come to the absolute conclusion that he automatically subtracted 3 from the overall list and forgot that the sniper was really on his side???...it was a nice find but it seems like you keep trying to push this without any clear proof.

I can see why Chill would be on your radar right now, but am curious as to why Ice is..... he's the one that brought the thought to the front in the first place.

So you think that Ice could definitely NOT be a terrorist because he questioned Chill?
