I just want to write abstract haiku about falling leaves and the impermanence of human existence! I think accusers are the ones we should fear and distrust, particularly accusers who post before me.

Hi everyone. It's time to kill scum and chew bubblegum. And I'm all out of gum. QuoProQuid posted:Is it a bandwagon if there are only two people involved? I would say no.

I feel like "ironically" trying to start a bandwagon is either 1) a person who doesn't realise they're actively aiding the scum or 2) scum trying to double their income in a way that's plausibly denial Either way can we cut that poo poo out?

Standard mafia practice: first day is a no-vote. Random voting (ESPECIALLY in early stages) has an extremely high chance of hitting the town. You need to build up a profile.

We could point out the OBVIOUS CORRUPTION IN CREATIVE CONVENTION POLICIES! What I'm saying is everyone should vote for sebmojo.

You're going to get information from the moderator anyway -- somebody innocent is going to die and who they are tells you a lot. I mean if a random lynching happens, it happens and that's more data, but I'm not voting in it today. I guess it's kinda a bad risk-reward? You double your data (from kills), but also half your window. There's a lot of data potentially lost, because the thread doesn't last as long and people aren't talking as much.

I mean if a random lynching happens, it happens and that's more data, but I'm not voting in it today. ![]() Assuming true randomness in lynch targets, the town has a greater probability of eventually hitting scum if it lynches someone D1 than it does in putting the decision off. In the "No-Lynch" scenario, there are four town members and two scum members alive on D3. If the town mislynches the game ends that night when the scum kill. In the YOLO scenario, there are three town members alive and two scum left on D3. The town mislynches and the game ends. Putting aside math, a No-Lynch forces all the town roles to operate on minimal information. There's no way to use the flip, bandwagons, and cases to inform role choices. Nor is there as much information to operate on D2. While people can analyze the scum kill, there's little information to glean from the day itself. Everything ends up swaddled in circular reasoning. In light of your recent posts, I really don't think you are scum. In fact, I'm about 85% sure of it. I do, however, think that a No-Lynch on D1 is the worst possible move that the town can make.

ALRIGHT THIS IS WRITER MAFIA LET'S GIVE IT SOME WRITER JUICE Mr Muffin, clad in yellow, tapped his pencil to his chin. "If a man is silent" he said, "he's either hiding something, or he's not helping. Either way, his loss is felt less keenly."
