Spoiler: Setup

• Neighborhood membership is public.

Scum have daychat on top of their neighbourhood.

Ame, Chemist1422, and dsjstr are one neighbourhood.
Kanna, clidd, and Datisi are another.

The game begins!

[Chemist1422]

First

[Chemist1422]

I'm with Ame and dsj, since Hectic didn't announce that despite the fact that it's supposed to be public

smh smh

[clidd]

Im with Datisi and Kanna.

[clidd]

If the selection of roles were not random, I have a hunch about Hectic's selective reasoning.

[clidd]

I imagine 8 ~ 9 possible scenarios, and I believe that I can reduce this number with our interactions.

[Datisi]

Oh this already started
It's almost 3am here I'm about to fall asleep
See y'all in the morning

[clidd]

Waiting for opinions on my theory.

[Chemist1422]

isn't it against site rules to have non-random role selection, at least without it being announced beforehand

[Datisi]

What

is

your theory? That Hectic assigned us roles as opposed to randomizing them?

Pedit: and that maybe

[Chemist1422]

hi dat did you rand town please tell me so I can decide whether ending the game on page 1 is worth it

[Datisi]

I did rand town but i also haven't been in a mafia game for like 5 days and i felt bad withdrawal symptoms so please don't end the game on page 1

[Chemist1422]

I'm currently in like 6 because I thought that was the healthiest way of having too much time taken up by school, apparently

note: do not ever let me make decisions

[Chemist1422]

I was also going to offer you to join my mini theme but then I remembered you're co-modding

so that's exciting

[Datisi]

I'm sure the site mods won't mind

[Chemist1422]

On a more serious note does anyone have any reason we should be using the hoods as opposed to the main threads other than like

important stuff that we don't want to get buried (even though it's a 6-player game so)

[clidd]

My theory is that he sought to balance the scum alignment by adding a player, theoretically, more experienced with an intermediate / weak player.

So Ame immediately came to mind. I was in a scum game of Hectic (which he won), where only Ame had an SR on him, while the rest of the players had him as a TR. I believe that this event changed Hectic's perspective on Ame and, as a result, selected her to be a scum in this game. Part of it was balancing, because he knows she is good, and the other part is curiosity, because he never saw scum!Ame before.

[clidd]

This game: https://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.p ... start=1750

[Chemist1422]

I might be getting trolled but I would like to redirect you to the part where that's breaking site rules

[clidd]

Well.

[clidd]

I thought that because there were few players, there would be more flexibility.

[clidd]

Forget what I said then.

[clidd]

So what now ?
