Off Topic Mafia VIII - Mafia vs Zombies

See the problem I see with Bobby leading the way is we all just sit here and do as he says.

We we had the same thing with afc when he was known cop... I personally felt the game got a bit dull as you weren't allowed to really think for yourself instead following orders. And what happens tomorrow, does Bobby pick another 3 names and we all do the aame?

 

I think I have an innocent read on two people, plus I know I'm innocent and BobbyD is. None of them are in those 3 so I'd go with that.

I change to ACS

 

Agreed, i think tennis ball mentioned it earlier. You guys / maybe small input myself should come out with the main town plans and then i kind of step in at the end. Just pretend i'm not here. On day 1 though there is no particular tactics just random guessing so i have randomly generated some names

 

Bobby has spoken

think need to to be clear on what we are doing, are people happy to go with Bobby picking 3 names (guess the 3 he picked probably aren't)?

 

Fsir enough. I'm happy go with what the majority want and as a known town can't fault your motives for picking those 3.. Just don't think it should be tactic for whole game as we don't learn much and it takes away a bit of the fun just following someone's lead

 

Did I say it changed the knowledge? I said there is a better option in terms of percentages than one vote per person and we have a innocent who can choose the individuals for once. Why go for a 26% chance of getting a bad guy with no potential voting patterns or reactions to go off when the known innocent can choose three or four to go on presenting a better chance of getting something even if it is only information.

 

I'm already on one of them

 

I retract my vote for myself. As that suspect plan is now up in the air.

Putting three up means there's a massive chance of missing the bad guys all together, the flaws of all up have clearly been exposed. How about some middle ground?

 

Are you the psychic

 

Agree with IBWT that Bobby picking names leaves us little more room for discussion than the one for all and all for one approach but prefer it nonetheless so so be it, even if I'm one of the three. Let's get this going then.

ACS

 

Agree with that. I was the SK in that game and i latched onto AFC for three days (until I killed him )

 

mikey

think that keeps it even

 

Gerrez I think you should move off yourself... Being on you, you can change and it would constitute a 2 way swing in votes so better to sort that out earlier than later

 

You've played Mafia with me often enough to know I won't move

 

Gerrez

 

so not its time for a voting table please. I think half the group want to go do one thing so some who were big proponents of the one vote thing didn't actually help it along.

I voted for myself first so i'll change to GERREZ for now but thats only cos acs and mikey have earned votes as well.

I'd like to see a real voting tbale too.

 

The converse arugument is that if we pick 3 at random and they're all innocents, then we'll learn **** all from the voting patterns, in fact quite the reverse, people will see things that lead them off on tangents that are futile, and no doubt lead to the lynching of more innocents, as we've seen in the last couple of games.

 

The problem is balancing between our odds and the bad guy's odds, we want the numbers to be the best they can be in terms of pure likelihood for one to be in the vote, whilst still keeping the odds for them uncomfortable to a point they will not be happy to let it go through and spin the wheel. 3, in general, is agreed to be the middle ground in that regard.

 

I think right now ACS might be in the lead on 3... i think nev voted for him earlier but did not switch

i make it 3 for ac and two for the others. @Swarbs should do his count.
