This is an interesting point, but nonetheless I have a few counterpoints to a no kill.damo666 wrote: ↑Fri Nov 08, 2024 1:00 pmThe more town we have alive at night the greater the chance of a mafdeathdargorygel wrote: ↑Fri Nov 08, 2024 12:26 pmAside from bozo's math... i still do not see the value of No Kill here, damo.

One has already been stated, that the tradeoff of statistical advantage for vote and reaction information is not worth it.
Similarly, trying to get statistical phaser advantage at night may be mathematically dubious, but more importantly a phaser kill is an eventuality loaded with so much WIFOM and so heavily dependent on the individuality of all game agents that it is not worth basing a strategy around. It is like a lottery ticket: a great windfall but not something to base our finances on.
Finally, I think that whenever there is a no kill, for example through a tie, it is injurious to town morale. Mafia is a game of people more than numbers and it is better to be wrong and miskill town and keep the blue team engaged and interested in the game than to chase some mild abstract advantage.

Do you think that damo is scumo for wanting a no kill?
Re: Mafia 1033 - The Next Generation [Hidden]
Darg has found stuff to talk about. I like his musings.
Foodcoats being charismatic mechanic messiah might be reminiscent of scummy times (i like how that sentence rolls of the tongue).
Rdrivera sort of responded how I expect him to respond as scum. Trying to be funny, and dismissing me with kindness.

This is just the beginning. We've only charted 19 percent of our galaxy. The rest is out there, just waiting.

It's not a sure kill.dargorygel wrote: ↑Fri Nov 08, 2024 12:49 amFwiw, I am opposed to a mass reveal this early. We'd give up our phasers for one sure kill. I'd rather hope we can catch more than that.
The rule was changed.

Did you know that there is a surprising amount of mech in this "mostly vanilla" setup that I will not be sharing with you for reasons that I will not be sharing with you?

if we no kill, mafia might no kill as well.
people would waste their phasers for no benefit to town at all.
no kill is anti-town

Re: Mafia 1033 - The Next Generation [Hidden]
I wish the NK was forced because that would bust the setup however then it becomes a vanilla game and we are bad at that
However theres still probably some way we can do somethingabout it

Absolutely scathing criticismghug wrote: ↑Fri Nov 08, 2024 7:51 amYou really want to do this?bozotheclown wrote: ↑Fri Nov 08, 2024 7:40 amI spent some time reviewing my poor performance in the last game I played, and despite how much I helped the mafia on the last day, we still would have won if you and BunnyGo had RBed Fluminator and worcej when I said I would go along with it. Why did you lock in your RB vote on me an hour before EOD?
My opinion of your town play was already low, but I didn't believe you'd play that poorly as town, so Occam's razor said you were scum. I apologize for overestimating you. I won't do it again. I figured at that point that my words weren't moving anyone and that locking my vote could prove my sincerity. Even that didn't work on Glitter, so it wouldn't have gone any better if I'd been right, but nothing else was working, so I don't really fault myself for trying it.
If the question is why I doubted you, this was explained quite thoroughly at the time. Why are you trying to pick a flight?
Also like idg why people have one bad game or bad take and then all of a sudden everyones like ‘oh they suck dont tell me they’re actually good’
Everyone has bad games, they are considered good because on average they are good, not because they are perfect
