Down the rabbit hole: Lucid dream mafia - Game Thread

[LittleGumball]

Well usually atleast about 24 hours before the day ends I'd say this way we've looked over every suspicious person to find who would be the best to lynch. Now it isn't just that I felt he voted too early, it's the fact that he gave no reasoning for his vote.

Mutiple reasons, yes, but without giving any reason it seems way too random, seems scummy to me.

w-what

Holding off votes until the last 24 hours before a day ends? That is absolutely the worst possible plan. Voting puts pressure on people and that is incredibly important. How people react to votes is literally how the game works. I'm completely dumbfounded - why would anyone want to hold off voting until literally no one has time to react to votes?



Also, Viral voting without a reason is a null tell, he does it every game as any alignment.

OKAY! I learned my own reasoning!
Ari and Jonny: Simply for their being on the latter end of the Shroom wagon. Whenever scum is lynched, people immediately look to the end of the wagon.
SMS: Mask, you silly boy, stop misrepping me
My actual reasons here were because you were pushing for a majority lynch super early yesterday, and now, to make that stronger, you're saying "don't vote until the end of the day". What's up with this?

I'm not concerned about Viral's vote, it's just his playstyle. @Spiritual Mask Salesman there's a difference between voting to lynch someone and voting for pressure. Pressure votes are to get people talking.

Anyway, since it was brought up, the reason I didn't want to lynch shroom day 1 is because I don't like lynching inactives on day 1, especially when I know that person is busy and can't really check in much. Obviously I was wrong, but ya.

No worries!

Whenever scum is lynched, people immediately look to the end of the wagon.

As I tried to detail earlier, Mafia is anti-inductive.
Why should a rule like the one you're suggesting be true? Perhaps there is a natural tendency for scum to jump of the backs of wagons, but as soon this this pattern became noticeable *by you* it would necessarily be noticeable *by scum* and they're incentivized to change their behaviour accordingly.

The idea of "common tells" only works when you assume you're one level higher than your opponents. Right now you're clearly modelling Ari and Jonny as level 0 players, with yourself at level 1. Is this fair? Can you justify it?

 

[DekuNut]

I can justify it by saying that this happens in every game, no matter how good of players they are. Scumbussing just happens. Want me to gather evidence from other games?

 

[Foo]

Would you do it?

 

[DekuNut]

Would you do it?

I would

Xenoblade Mafia

Twilight

Final Vote Tally:

Eoghan (5) - musicfan, JC-Hurin, A Link In Time, Frozen Chosen, Spiritual Mask Salesman

Eoghan has been lynched; no more votes will be counted. Hang tight while I get the Night scene ready.

Eoghan was bussed by scumbud JC-Hurin. This was the only scum lynch that game.

Skyward Sword Mafia

Day 7 Vote Tally:
Sadia – 4 (Batman, Linkdude74, Eduarda, Go_Dark_Link)

There's two recent examples. Neither JC nor Eduarda are bad/newbish players. It just happens.

 

[LittleGumball]

i don't understand the point of this argument

the argument shouldn't be "would mafia do this" the argument should be "would x person do this as mafia"
