Any Poli Sci geeks around?
Hi, it's been a while. The political science department at my school can be dead sometimes and I've been looking to bounce some ideas around. I don't know why, but I remembered this site and thought there might be a few of you around with some interest for discussion. I know that for the most part, the discussion on this site is news/opinion based, but I don't know what kind of theory backgrounds some of you might have...

Yeah. Vote for who you think is mafia. It's early, so we'll all have different ideas. It'll put a bunch of people on the spot. See how much talking we've already gotten out of my accusations?

@Yoyo, Mafia in M6, Vig in M2 and M4, SK in M3, VT in M3.5.

Mintyboy4 (100 D)
15 Jan 15 UTC
Alex you pose a good point, the more people we vote for the higher the chance of hitting a town power role, but still statistically speaking we're 2x more likely to accuse a mafia. Is getting a power role lynched worth that risk? Debatable, but as the previous game showed, even in a 2 person show down, power roles still get lynched on day 1.
thdfrance (187 D)
15 Jan 15 UTC
Here is an interesting question, if one of the say five or six people we spread the vote between is a power roll should he claim? It would be bad if we hit more than one power roll with the first vote, and then had them both roll claim. Then, the mafia would know who to target.

If I was a day vig, I would shoot you right now France. (Why aren't those a thing here yet?)
I mean this with the utmost respect :)
thdfrance (187 D)
15 Jan 15 UTC
My initial thought is that the power roll should only claim if he's sure that they are going to be the ones lynched.
thdfrance (187 D)
15 Jan 15 UTC
haha flum, I've actually got homework that I should be doing right now, so get on it.
ghug (5068 D(B))
15 Jan 15 UTC
Are we really considering keeping the vote spread all day? Guys, that would be terrible. The mafia could easily shift votes onto innocents without giving away any information and there's a much increased likelihood of a tie. Also people just won't do it in practice, even if they agree to it, but that's a good thing.

I never said my idea was flawless, I merely suggested it as an alternative, I think it has it's positives, but I won't deny it has negatives to it too.
Yes, there's a larger chance of hitting a power role, I don't think I have enough game experience to decide if it would be wise to claim so early on.

Chaqa (3971 D(B))

Like most Day 1 discussions, not a lot to base stuff on. I don't find no-lynch to be particularly scummy, since I supported it in Mafia 1 and 2 (and died for it in Mafia 1) and I remember it was mostly townies that wanted it.

I'm not going to lead the charge for it, though, and I'm not anti-lynch. I think we should be able to find someone that is at least a bit scummy by the end of Day 1. As I've never gotten past like Day 3 (I think it was Night 3 I died in last time I played?) and I've not played since M4, I'll just try to get a feel for this again.
Mintyboy4 (100 D)

Also Ghug, I completely agree my idea practically guarantee's a town lynch day 1, I don't deny that, but I disagree that you say it doesn't give much info.

We should vote for who we think is scum

Seeking advice from people that have taken a cruise. My last one was 20 years ago, and I am picking between Norwegian, Royal Caribbean and Carnival. Carnival seems cheapest....but...is there a reason? Is it volume discount, or am I going to be eating greasy burgers and slop instead of the fine cuisine I might get elsewhere?
