SFG I asked LadySuburu as soon as I found out there was another cop and he said that Sane mafia is justa name, apparently it's only called sane mafia because crazy mafia was taken...
So we don't actually know if there are sanities or not.

Does this mean that my brownies might be "special" brownies? X3

I would be surprised if there wasn't different sanities this game, having multiple sane cops seems unlikely...

It was renamed from "Nightless Crazy Mafia" because I didn't want LS's series mixed up with my CM series.

With two Cop claims, I doubt one of them will survive to tell his or her tale for Day 2, unless one is lying (WIFOM: Mafia know this and don't kill a claimed Cop, making them both suspicious (how many Mafia are there anyway?)) or we have a Doctor (or two? xD) and some luck.

I'm inclined to believe 0_o on his role because he mentioned "Twilight Townie" instead of "Vanilla Townie." I don't think anyone but a Twilight Townie would know the name of the Vanilla Townie role except by a wild guess and a boat load of luck, or some knowledgeable Mafia or aux role (or cheating...).

These unkown role games just have too many possibilities :/ I think it's best to stick to assuming that everyone was assigned a common/basic role. Yes, someone could be a Mafia Cop that shows up as innocent to other cops and also has 2 votes, but we'll never guess that right and I'm sure LadySuburu is aware of that fact. Speculation will never amount to more than pure guess work. There's also only 7 players in this game, which means that having too many aux roles or special abilities would make the game imbalanced.

Lucidity wrote:

There could be two Mafia and five Doctors? xD That seems pretty balanced.

Anyway, there is a chance there are two Cops running around, at least one Vanilla Townie (aka Twilight Townie), and, of course, one or more Mafia (probably one or two for a game this small; perhaps two if we really do have two Cops).

Actually, with a bit of thinking, that means D2 is LyLo assuming two Mafia. That's either one or two investigations with two Cops. Assuming one (Mafia kills one of the two Cops), that's a 1/5 chance of winning past D2 (if a Townie is lynched D1) based on the living Cop's result (and even then the Cop could be insane, screwing that all up). Unless there are more, highly helpful or protective Townie roles, two Mafia is much too imbalanced. So I think it's safe to say there's only one Mafia. Perhaps the Mafia is a role blocker to counter the two Cops?

So here's what I suspect:
1 Mafia Goon or Mafia Roleblocker
1 Sane Cop (adam or SFG)
1 Insane Cop (adam or SFG)
1 Vanilla Townie (0_o)
3 Unknown Townies, probably Vanilla Townies
Remaining players: Derekku Chan, Echo, Lucidity, strager
This assumes all serious claims thus far are true. I'm not so sure there are two Cops unless the Mafia is a Roleblocker. We'll have to wait until Day 2 to figure that out ("no result" from one of the Cops).

Comments?

Yes Yes.

i move that the topic be renamed "Nightless Mafia" then cus thats both different and doesnt imply that we're all sane here.

On a different note, i wouldnt put it past Subi to have all sorts of crazy "imbalanced" roles in here to balance things out.

inb4 unknown shadow lol

also i still think theres a doctor around...somewhere...maybe adam fake-claimed cop because he was actually the doctor or maybe one of the other people who havent claimed

imma cool cop~

oh also its kinda stupid to speculate on setup just based on what i know of Subi. i mean theres gonna be some super-crazy role or two or four in here anyways, and 0_o might magically morph into a knowledgeable townie or smth.

Lucidity, Echo, adam, i want you guys to start talking so i can scumpaint people

Having any idea on the setup (even just a guess which you can discard later) is better than having no idea on the setup, especially for certain roles like the Doctor (so he knows who to protect) and the Cop (so he knows if he'll get a Guilty on a Townie due to their role).

You're implying that roles have extra abilities only during the Twilight? I can't think of anything other than Night action-style abilities, but there may be some...

Still, this "proves" there are at least some aux roles.

Not that one. This one.

"(Also, the title is a lie... somewhat.)"

Though... I'm not saying there aren't roles that have actions in the twilight. :3

i think he means the "this title is a lie...somewhat" thing

Hmm, do you think it is wise for both Cops to investigate themselves? On one hand, we can discredit two possible sanities. On the other, the Mafia could pick both off Cops before they come up with anything conclusive about another player. In that other hand we see the chance of a Doctor who protects one of the Cops long enough to get two investigations (self and another person) and hopefully discover who the Mafia is. Or, the Cop could be the Mafia and win D2 (D2 has 7-2*2 = 3 players) by framing someone else in the same way.

You could also both scan the person who is lynched D1. Pretty much the same as investigating yourself, I think.

Or you can both target different players and hope for the best. I'm hoping for a Doctor so we can at least get two investigations.

What good is it to the town if we know that there is, for example, a doctor or a cop? But if the mafia know that they exist, they can start looking for tells because they *know* the role exists. When they don't know the role exists, they'll need to resort to guessing, which increases the chances of survival of the PRs.

Also rolefishing is a scumtell because there is no benefit for town to know who has what role (unless you're the doctor and trying to find the cop(s) or something), whereas the mafia will love to know who has what role so they can plan the NKs

seeing as strager's only on 1 vote, there's no harm in vote: strager for rolefishing

DAY COP
DAAAAAAAAAAY COOOOOOOOOP
Sheesh
It was clearly bolded.

I still don't see how that works, but you're entitled to your own logic and I don't have to agree, really. However, you did say the same thing in BM1, where you were a Mafia, so I'm kind of suspicious about that.

I wouldn't say I'm rolefishing. I'm not asking people to claim. I'm just looking at what information we have from claims to see what's possible and what is the better action to take given this information. For example, see my post about who/how the Cops should investigate.

I do have to agree that rolefishing is probably suspicious, though I haven't seen it applied in a game I've played/followed (unless I'm that blind), so I can't say if it's reliable. I'm sure you've the experience, and it does sound like a possible tell, so that's why I'm agreeing on this point.

Care to clarify?

You can investigate during the Day and have results by the Twilight?

In that case, that's pretty useful. Have the Doctor protect you so we get two investigations by Twilight 2. Some WIFOM: Mafia sees this and kills the other Cop, but the Doctor sees this and protects that other Cop, but the Mafia sees THAT and ... The least-risk scenario is to protect adam because he is more valuable than SFG (investigations are a turn earlier, before the Twilight kill) (also, sorry SFG =X). Of course, the Doctor should keep quiet about who he's going to protect. =]

However, I fear adam being Naive or Paranoid, and SFG being Sane (or Insane), to balance this.

First was about how Echo feels information about roles (how roles work, and what roles are in the game) helps the Mafia and not the Town.

Second was about how collecting roles (trying to get people to claim) helps the Mafia and not the Town.

I get results right away.

I might have.

Hmm...

Mod: Do Twilight actions (in particular, a Twilight kill by the Mafia) take place immediately, or are all actions queued to the end of the Twilight like in other Mafia games?

I ask because if adam doesn't investigate speak his result during Day 1, and Twilight actions are taken immediately, he may be killed before we know his results.

At my own choice, I will tell you all this piece of information.

In this game (and this game only), unless a role can be blocked by another, the actions will take place intantly. Therefore, for example, if a cop does his action and gets results almost immediately, then there isn't a role that can block the cop during that phase. Other than that, I will not give any info on this subject.

Does a kill count as a block for Cops?

Scenario one: Cop investigates, tells results. Then is killed.
Scenario two: Cop killed. Then, investigates. Can't tell results.

Which scenario will take place?

strager is definitely digging too deeply into roles for my comfort.

Echo wrote:

Well, I kinda usually do that. I like to know every detail about every role I can so I can see how things can play out, and make a decision (and encourage others to) which is most benefitial for the Town.

If you're a cop and want to work out the details, you would be PM'ing LS.
If you're a pro-town, there's no reason you need to ask LS - anyone playing cops (especially in this game) would be smart enough to work out strategies themselves without your input, and no one really has reason to trust any input you give anyway. You're helping to give away information that may not have been given away.

There's one other possibility, of course.

Ah, I see what you mean.

I was trying to help, but it seems in doing so that'd help the Mafia. I guess this is what you meant by your information-about-roles-is-bad... I see your point and agree.

People only post when I sleep ~_~

I have to agree with Echo about strager. Rolefishing benefits the Mafia the most. Apparently Echo explained this to him in BM1 and he still persisted in doing it in this game. After Echo pointed it out to him again he brushed it off and continued.

Not to mention the inconsistency in his post pointed out by 0_o. Did he type the post and then decided to throw in an "I agree" to make sure he doesn't ruffle too many feathers? He might have just thought about the idea while typing the post and by the end of it realised that Echo was making sense. The problem with this theory is that he tried to make a (bad) excuse for his inconsistency in his next post. (Which means he did not have an epiphany halfway through the post) He also carries on throwing information out into the public domain, completely disregarding Echo's warning, which he claims to understand.

(Hopefully?) he has stopped now, by acknowledging Echo for the second time.

strager, you're on the top of my suspicion list at the moment for trying to get all the information you possibly can into the open. The best course of action is surely to trust that the aux roles do their jobs to the best of their ability with the information that they've managed to obtain. If you throw all roles into the open and devise (incomplete) strategies publicly it only benefits the Mafia. They will know exactly what to do in order to stop the strategy from working, wouldn't they? The only time you should try to implement a strategy publicly is if it is guaranteed to work, no matter what the Mafia do.

Finally, what is the point of speculating about possible roles? Especially on Day 1. LS has admitted that she uses basic rules, which might apply to roles too. But any guesswork is just as bad (or worse) as not guessing at all. If your guess is wrong (and let's face it. you have nothing to base your guesses on yet) then it is to the detriment to the town. Could you explain how guessing roles and devising (public) strategies around them benefits the Town?

Plox explain all the points I made strager D: I might be horribly wrong.

BM1, Echo was Mafia and I was a Townie. Echo used the same argument there as he is here, which makes me suspicious of him. Not really something solid, but it's something.

Also, as I said, I didn't really understand his argument then.

fffffffffffff I knew you'd bring this up again. I've already answered you. Regardless of what sillyness LS added to this game, I (and most likely 0_o) are "townies". Let it be vanilla, twilight, or brownie.

Derekku continues with his running joke, and it's kinda annoying. Not sure if it's meant as a distraction or something, or just to add fun to the game (ineffectively here).

The random vote random vote random vote random vote thing gets a little boring after a while, so I tried to have a little fun with my role. Why didn't you attack anyone else for their jokes and fun? FOS strag-*gets shot* I didn't mean it as a distraction, and if anyone thought it was, then I'm sorry for having fun

It wasn't that others were distracting. It was just that yours mostly interrupted my thoughts.

Also SFG you can't do a serious vote then go "oh ok never mind, it's a random vote now". It doesn't work that way

I agree, but I kinda let it be. It's not like the vote does anything serious for now (like all random votes). Because the argument was defunt (I think) a bandwagon didn't follow.

Just like 0_o said, we know how you act. You're strager x3

?

I only pointed it out to show that I had made a mistake in that post. I wasn't re-asking the question.

So why'd you said "again?"

Someone pointed out that maybe Brownie == Cop.

I just saw there is a Backup role on MafiaWiki. Seems possible for 0_o or Derekku.

EDIT: That, or a Deputy. Seems a 0_o-SFG or Derekku-SFG link would be possible.

(Just wanted to post a finding; not suspecting anyone or anything.)

EDIT: D'oh, just realized that making this public probably helps the Mafia. I'm not one to remove (posted) information, so I won't delete this post's contents, but I'll stop adding to it. =X

There's just something about strager's behaviour that screams "mafia" at me but I can't quite put my finger on it :/

Maybe it's just a trick of light...

it seems to me that if strager were mafia, instead of posting his findings and leaving them there he would be sharing them privately with his mafia friend or, if game contains only one mafia, keeping them to himself.

im going to tentatively clear strager in my head.

He could just be overposting to be seen as a non-lurker though...I know that a gut feeling is probably not the best thing to go by in this game, but my gut is telling me strager is Mafia -.- My previous post highlights some non-concrete things :/

I should talk more? Other than strager I've probably written the most? -.- In terms of post count I might not be the highest, but most of the posts so far have been rubbish. Quality over quantity to be honest...You also need to realise that we're in completely different time zones. I never seem to be online with the Americans, so don't expect a lot of instant replies in the conversations that you have during your night.

Anyway, gonna have a read through of the thread and post some thoughts.

Based on the past ways that strager has acted, I think that he's acting "normal". Thanks for the information, strager. I had completely forgotten about roles that gain power that they don't have at the start. Maybe I am one, then, who knows? Only time will tell.

I think I still have my (random) vote on uhhh adam? So I'll just go ahead and Unvote since random votes are pointless :3

dude why are you guys getting on strager's back? He's acting perfectly legit and you're all like "well i have this sneaking suspicion that hes mafia hurr"

scumpainting much? and you both agree...i think i see two mafia members

vote remains on Lucidity
FOS on Echo

And the same could be said about you defending strager. Excessively even. :/

If you think about it, it's highly unlikely that both me and Echo are Mafia in this game as we were the two Mafia in Newbie Mafia 3 as well...Should I not agree with his perfectly logical "anti-info barfing" point of view purely because I would be seen as scum? In fact Mafia members would try to distance themselves from each other would they not? Reasoning behind accusation denied -_-

In the only unkown-role game that I've played with strager he was definitely NOT this keen on finding roles. He barely posted at all. I think he was a Cop in BM1? This is the total reverse O_o

If you know anything about probability then you'd know that since the two games are independent events, then their probabilities are also independent.

Lets say you roll a dice, and it comes up a six. Does this mean if you roll another one, it's less likely to be a six than any other number? Each number would still have an equal chance of of being rolled, regardless of what was rolled before.

Anyway, I actually don't think there is more than one mafia this game, personally I think it's too small for that.. but I guess we won't find out for sure till tomorrow =/

Izit?

Let's look at it closely shall we?

The probability of Echo and I being Mafia in this game is:

1/[7C2] = 0.0476

The probability of Echo and I being Mafia in NM3 and NSM is:

1/[7C2] * 1/[9C2] = 0.00132

That's 36 times smaller ~_~

I don't have time to post much.

I know it's not a defense, but that's WIFOM.

Logical fallacy IIRC, as 0_o pointed out.

I was a Cop, yes. The game was so large I didn't care about roles until it got much smaller, where the game is easier to work with.

Gotta go...

game is seven people, right?

*checks*

yeah so its the same size as the newbie mafia games.
which, i might point out, had two mafia members each.
this is why i think this is a two-mafia game.

also@Echo, Lucidity, im not talking about you two "buddying" im talking about you both say strager is mafia based on "gut feelings" - maybe you thought you could bandwagon a vote on him? youre being pretty stupid about it.

That's only if you don't know the outcome of both games. The probability of rolling 2 sixes is (1*6) * (1*6) = 1/36, but if you are given that the first roll is a six, then the first roll has a probability of 1, making the equation 1 * 1/6 = 1/6.
Also by your logic, any pair of us has a 0.00132 chance of being mafia. The probability of you and Echo being mafia in the first game, followed by say, me and strager being mafia in the second game is exactly the same.

Heh, you're quite right 0_o. The probability of Echo and I being Mafia partners in this game in isolation is the same as any other combination of 2 people. You're looking at P(B|A) when that is obviously equal to P(B) if A and B are independent events. You have to consider the purpose of the calculation though. You're calculating something different.

What I'm suggesting is that you look at a longer time horizon. The probability of Echo and I being partners in 2 games is equal to P(B)*P(A). There is no point in assuming Event A is given, because we're not just looking at this game. I'm saying that picking Echo and I in two consecutive games is less likely than being picked in one game. I don't know how else to explain this, but I am quite confident that my method is correct. I used to get firsts (A's or whatever you want to call it) in my undergrad for this basic probability theory.

I have no idea how LadySuburu assigns roles. It might not even be completely random so the point is moot.

Anyway, we're straying way off course here. The difference is that you're calculating the probability of the event in this game in isolation and I'm considering the event across two games. If you disagree I think we should leave it at that. We've wasted enough posts on it It is certainly not helping us catch the Mafia. Was fun though ;p

Weren't there nine players in the newbie mafias? I'm too lazy to check X3

Regardless, I think there's two mafia =<

Yeah there were. Dunno why SFG thinks it's 7 O_o?

If there are 2 Mafia in this game and we lynch a townie today we're in LyLo in Day 2 (Assuming the Doctor (if one exists?) fails to protect). Unless she had a really short game planned I don't think LS would do this.

This means we either have only 1 Mafia or there is an abundance of Cops around to counter the bigger Mafia threat. If the Cop claims are all truthful then we probably do have 2 Mafia -.- But at least one of the "Cops" probably lied :/ And there's really no point in speculating about it, because we'll know what's going on when LS announces LyLo (or not) in Day 2.

Just compare these two scenarios, listed are the mafias for each game (completely hypothetical)

a) M1: You, Echo | M2: You, Echo
b) M1: You, Echo | M2: adam, SFG

Do the calculations, the probabilities of a) and b) happening are exactly the same, no matter which pair you come up with for M2 in the b) scenario.

Going back to the dice roll example: if you roll a dice three times, the probability of rolling 4,1,2 (in order) is exactly the same as rolling 3,3,3 no matter which way you look at it. Seeing as our role assignments are random, this pretty much is a dice roll, so by your logic you are saying that if a die rolls a 3, then the die is less likely to roll a 3 on the next roll.

And yes this does matter, because you are using this "logic" to say you and Echo and very likely not to be Mafia, when you have statistically the exact same probability as any other pair.

What you are saying is listed in MafiaScum as Gambler's Fallacy.

if you thought one of us cops (assuming adam wasnt lying) was mafia, why aren't you voting for one of us? 1 cop for 1 mafia is a good trade.

@0_o: As I said, you're quite right. :p I was referring to P(A)*P(B) which is smaller than P(B), but I didn't consider that it is equal for any alternative combination in this game too, so yeah it doesn't really mean much~ I'll concede that we're just as likely Mafia as anyone else~ (I haven't done this in 3 years ok!:p)

@SFG: Sure it's a good trade if we know that there is only 1 Cop. We don't. Both of you might be Cops. Until Day 2 we won't know how many Mafia there are either. The safest option to pursue if we followed this strategy would be to vote adam, as he is a Day cop and can then investigate before he is lynched, reveal his results and have it confirmed when he dies.

I am leaning towards you being a fake Cop though. You just seem too uninformed to be one :/ Examples are here and here.

Here (and following posts) she is fishing for info on what a Cop (Her role) can do. Why not ask about it in a PM instead of giving it to the Mafia in the thread? Unless she's Mafia looking for info?

In comparison adam has provided information about his role that LS later confirmed to be true. I don't know how he would know it otherwise.
