Dubulous said:RAVERIST WHAT YOU SAID IS FALSE A MAFIA FACTION CANNOT WIN IF IT DOES NOT HAVE THE ABILITY TO KILL, BECAUSE IT CAN ONLY TIE LYNCH VOTES ASSUMING THE COOPERATION OF THE NEUTRALS. LOOK AT IT THIS WAY:
THERE ARE NINE (9) PLAYERS LEFT NOW. NO ONE IS KILLED IN THE NIGHT SO WE HEAD TO THE LYNCH. MAFIA HAS TWO (2) VOTES, NEUTRALS HAVE A (1) VOTE EACH, AND VILLAGE HAS FOUR (4) VOTES (THOUGH WE HAVE FIVE (5) VILLAGERS ALIVE, ONE (1) CANNOT VOTE). IN A BEST CASE SCENARIO (ASSUMING EVERYONE REMAINS ACTIVE), THE VOTE WOULD END IN A TIE LYNCH. THEN REPEAT THE PROCESS, AND BECAUSE IT IS WELL KNOWN THAT LONELYNESS (NATURAL LOG) AND AORYUHA ARE THE REMAINING MAFIA, THE VILLAGE CANNOT POSSIBLY SCREW UP THE LYNCH VOTE. IT WOULD BE 4/2/1 AT THAT POINT, THOUGH AGAIN IT WOULD BE EFFECTIVELY 3/2/1 BECAUSE A CERTAIN USER CANNOT VOTE. ANOTHER DOUBLE LYNCH ENSUES, AND THE GAME IS OVER BECAUSE THE NEUTRALS CAN WIN WITH EVERYONE.
NOW, IT HAS COME TO MY ATTENTION THAT THE MAFIA HAS GAINED ANOTHER KILLING ABILITY. IF THIS IS INDEED THE CASE, THE GAME SHOULD BE CALLED RIGHT NOW BECAUSE ALL LONELYNESS (NATURAL LOG) OR AORYUHA (WHOEVER HAS THE KILLING ABILITY) HAS TO DO IS NOT KILL THE USER THAT CAN'T VOTE. EVEN THEN THIS ONLY PROLONGS THE INEVITABLE MAFIA VICTORY, ASSUMING THAT THE KILLING POWERS WOULD AGAIN BE TRANSFERED TO THE REMAINING LIVING MAFIA MEMBER ON THE TIED LYNCH.
mhmm, yeah, thats a good point Natural_Log is making. Unless the neuts betray the mafia, how do they lose?
my point exactly
As you look around, a pile of dust appears, and a voice gives you a message:Dear Kharozz
You are the Catfish
First of all, remember that Dogfish hate Catfish. Sorry about that. Anyway, as a useless creature in the sea, you have finally figured out a way to be half useful and keep your god happy. Yes, a miracle has occurred in this new world.
Each day night cycle, starting from D1 & N1, you can choose to do up to 2 of these 3 things:
To use your martyr ability, send the hosts (Dogfish44 & Raverist) a Pm saying ‘Night X – Protecting USER with my entire worthless life’ where USER is the Smogon account name of that person. The USER in question will automatically be protected from all roles, which will target you instead.
- Speak in the forum topic words other than your lynch vote.
- Cast a Normal lynch Vote with no additional text
- Use Martyr ability.
If you try to use all 3 actions, the Martyr ability is cancelled for that D/N cycle.
You win if the town win
Day ends in 48 hours or till a majority is reached.You gotta know when to hold 'em
Know when to fold 'em.
Know when to walk away.
Know when to run.
You never count your money when you're sittin' at the table.
There'll be time enough for countin' when the dealin's done.
Congratulations Biohazards, it is a well deserved win.
