Roles of Madness. Mafia Thread

I'm not sure either. Maybe RE will leave some breadcrumbs in the Stories. We'll see.

What are you rambling on about Sath, you are sounding very strange...

Not really, Goryani extensivly responding to those posts is. I had my snappy comments ready but deleted em because it's useless. Discussing the discussion about day one lynches is retarded and for some reason pops up every game. Everyone somehow has a new opinion and everytime it gets attributed to being scum. Yeah the posts weren't very intelligent, but this almost looks like Goryani got trolled.

If we're gonna lynch random on day one then say so, don't use that reason to lynch a first time player. Goryani should know better.

Discuss!

Let's focus on the gameplay instead of game setup.

Role claim!!

Looks like a loaf to me.

...Let's focus on the gameplay...

May as well start my out of context quotes now huh Valhauros??

[Skjolde]

Do NOT mention the loaf.


Well, we still need to hear from Val, Loz and CG.

[Laarz]

korial do you have a posting restriction of any kind?

This seems like a strange question BA.

[Skjolde]

Maybe he's putting some pressure on him.

[flubbucket]

Goryani's usual postings are a wall with quotes and such. Why would this day one be any different? Simply because it's made of fluff and no substance? His questions of the "new" people also seems ordinary as well.

[Sathoris]

Hmm, perhaps for day one. Regardless, it got Goryani snooping around.

Seems I was wrong about having more posting in the pregame than game itself, which is good. Also, I will also not be on at day ends.






Could be wrong here, but from RE's post it seems like the dream chosen before official game start can effect today or this next night phase. I would guess that mafia have in the range of 5-10.






Could be. Do you think the mafia knows exactly what each dream does? Do you think they can choose the same dream multiple nights in a row?






I am curious what clues about the dreams we would gain by lynching a scum?

they can't choose the same twice in a row see REs post. I am curious by what he means by dreams effect day step or night step from when they are cast, but then he said they are only cast at night. That implys the dreams are only around during day (which makes no sense) .....

Dreams effect only the next day step or the next night from when they are 'cast' depending what it is. Each night a new dream is cast, which in turn effects only the next relevent step and so on. There will never be 2 dreams in effect at once.


The story can hint at the dreams effect but may not necessarly do so. Most story will just be flavor.

Bad Jcakes!


Waiting to lynch until we have more info delays when "more info" happens. The pursuit of a lynch let's town power roles make better decisions that night. The pursuit of a lynch lets the town make a better lynch decision the next day. And so on.


Lack of pursuit of a lynch benefits scum in many ways.
Information is kept hidden longer, which allows more information to be erased from town use during a night kill.
Scum don't have to expose themselves trying to lynch a townie (/wave Valhouros)- especially a townie power role.
Scum won't be lynched that day if no lynch occurs.

Obvious scum trying to hide is obvious.




That is a most curious thing to say. Why would the duration of the current dream affect whether or not we should lynch someone today?

Like I said in my post it was just a question as a relative new commer about how the lynch everyday works when everyone has a powerrole. My main reasoning was if we didn't lynch D1 it gives everyone a chance to use their role and thus have more information. Anyway it was just a question for the more experience people as to how the lynch every day works with power roles. Kegs post explained it very well (without jumping down my throat for asking a noob question of the more experienced people).




RQS for the new players (Solar Ice, Autti, Skjolde):
Do you think mafia have power roles? If so, what power role do you think mafia might have?


RQS for everyone:
How long do you think dreams can last?
How many dreams do you think mafia have to choose from?[/QUOTE]


-See above for my first answer (quoted RE).
-I am not sure, I would assume that it is a largeish pool
