The hope here is that either; we have more than just those 3 auxs for information and we work on that or we use what information we can get before they die (chances are one of them will get some more information seeing as they already know who is going to be targeted by a mafia) and mount the lynches off that.

My question is what are we going to do if our auxs get lynched or night killed?
Obviously if a Watcher is about to get lynched he would roleclaim, just like anybody else. It's not like I'm telling them to just be quiet and don't say anything even when you're being voted for, just don't claim when you hardly have any information.

They are going to be night killed a lot sooner if they claim today than if they didn't, so I don't get what you're saying.
Rantai
Ok, fair enough on the lynch part.

What I'm trying to get at is if the watcher is NK'd tonight, we've just been shot in the foot with no information taken. I don't really like luck based plans.
Rantai
I think this is a case of guaranteed information vs a potential for more.
Salvage
If the watcher claims now and gives all the information it's 100% NK'ed next night , if he tries to stay quiet and get even more information that could be really usefull D3 or even D4 chances of him being killed are not big at all , and it could be more usefull .. yeah i think that's a better plan that the previous one.
KRZY
I'd like some more input on this.

Rolled, you've been quiet since N1. Any thoughts?
Rantai
Yep.

Hoping they get the right targets.

Hoping they live through the night.

It's down to if you are willing to take the risk of losing it all for more.
Chris_old
It's not really a hope if they live through the night, it's a 1 in 11 chance they get killed.

the second part yeah, but there is 3 different people.

besides themselves it'd bring the number down to 8, and if they each picked a different person that'd be 5 people left out. Not to mention if the Tracker hits a Mafia and they target someone that night, and that person dies it's a confirmed Mafia right off the bat.

technically you could confirm 2 mafia in 1 night on top of the one from N1

that's pretty much game

If I had anything to add or suggest with the plans, I would. But having to refer to mafiawiki every time I want to distinguish between voyeur, watcher, and tracker is annoying. Confusing setup.

Can't get too into the game right now for some reason, hopefully that changes later tonight so I can contribute.

By the way, as hypocritical as this sounds, I think Kiddo ragequit mafia in general so prod him if I may. Let's get him replaced sooner rather than later if that's the case.
Lybydose
ib kiddo is the watcher
Lybydose
also Chris I have no idea where you're pulling these numbers from. There are 14 players alive, not 11.
Rantai
1 in 11 townies, unless mafia want to tactically night kill?
Lybydose
or just not kill at all, which would be hilarious
Lybydose
actually so in that case it would be 3 in 11, but we already know KRZY is the voyeur (which can't really determine any useful information on its own), so it's more like a 2 in 10 chance of the tracker or watcher dying.

Lynching one maf isn't such an accomplishment that it's worth outing three auxes. I think the information from revealing would be more beneficial to scum at this point. Also if we wait, when we finally use the info to lynch the scum we will have more information about them and their likely scumbuddies.

Though really it's up to the watcher to choose. We should move on under the assumption that the watcher wants to stay hidden until s/he reveals. In other words, Plan B for now.

Meanwhile, vote for someone you think is scum. Preferably Raging Bull.

I think I prefer plan B. It seems like a classic case of risk vs reward. We could get those from KRZY's report to role claim now and get 50/50 chance to lynch or we could wait few days to get better results. Although I'm rather curious what report LS has that conflicts with KRZYs ._.

I was half-told not to claim, but now I'm bored and everyone's being quiet. I fully intend to vote KRZY unless I get a good enough explanation for the conflicting results.

Here's the two claims required to explain my conflicting results.


Claim: Cirno

Abilities:

1: Confirmed Masonry. Both me and my mason partner Rolled (Daiyousei) were both told that the other is confirmed town. Each night we may speak to each other via PM or other communications means. There is nothing against claiming in my role PM, and stated my intentions to the mods well before the situation even came up for me to claim.

2. Rolled has no special secondary ability. I have a flavor-based ability. Each night, I'm allowed to choose one person to attempt to kill. However, this ability has a 9% chance to work.


-------------------------

Reason why I suspect KRZY to be lying:

Last night, Rolled was motivated. This caused us to be able to communicate during the day today. I highly doubt the existance of two motivators, and without a watcher claim I strongly believe he is lying.
Rantai
Oh hmmm.

So basically if a watcher doesn't claim then it's most likely that KRZY made it up?
Wojjan
god damnit LS you ruin everything. Now I have to claim the specifics of my motivation >:(

sup y'all Kanako Yasaka here, goddess who is pretty big on this whole faith thing and can help people out with it. It takes some time, so my actions have a one-day delay. I got to pick a target both on D1 and N1 which was a one-off occasion. From now on I can only target at night, and the motivation will start the next night.

The "motivated" that showed up in KRZY's list means that I targetted two and mash, not that they received their boost on that time. If they were alive, they'd get their boost the next night. Since I got to target Rolled D1 (which pieguy counted I guess as N0) he got a faith boost thing last night.
Wojjan
Oh and I guess I'll boost you tonight giving you probably a 99% chance of killing? HAve fun as a vig I guess
Jinxy
Wow that's a complicated role. Interestingly done, though.
Rolled
I believe wojjan, and I believe KRZY. Lyby is quite confident in KRZY's claims as well, so I'm thinking he's amongst the aux roles targeting mash/two. I never really expected there to be two motivators floating around, else there would be counter claims regarding KRZY's information. Wojjan being able to motivate two people is the only thing that makes sense.

Let's get this game kicking. Confirmed town (imo?):

Rolled
LS
KRZY
Wojjan
Lyby (subtleish claim)

Since we pretty much already have 2 claims from the people targeting two/mash, lets go with plan A and find some scum.

<3

Thanks for getting us quite a few mostly confirmed town and clearing that up.

As rolled said, let's go with Plan A still.

As for motivating me, that's fine regardless. Doing so means that unless I'm NKed tonight we'll have a vig kill the next night. I'd say to motivate the Voyeur or Watcher, but the only flaw with that is the one you motivate has to live through the next two nights.


Small text wall, don't skip!

That leaves us with...

Two was...
tracked (???)
killed (???)
motivated (wojjan)
watched (???)

If the watcher claims...

tracked (Player A/B)
killed (Player B/A)
motivated (wojjan)
watched (watcher)

Now, if Rolled motivates me, we basically have a night Vig kill the next night. So, instead of lynching player A or B, here's what I propose.

The watcher and voyeur target the same player. Either player A or B, since they aren't confirmed.

The real tracker targets himself.

Based on that, even if one of the watcher or voyeur dies we'll recieve a result D3 confirming if that player was town or mafia based on if they targeted himself. (Result being Player targeted himself, or player was tracked.)

Then, I can use my power on the remaining player (mafia).

The only downside is not having the watcher/voyeur/tracker gain more results that night. However, due to the nature of their roles (based around aux/mafia targets) and the gain of not having the chance of lynching that power role, I believe it's a better plan than not doing so.

Thoughts?

Writing this pretty long after I got up so I'm tired. I may have made errors and please correct them if I did.
Rantai
x.x my head hurts a bit.

I can't think of any reason why that circle of targeting wouldn't work. I've already stated that I'd rather get this plan through and have some sort of information to run on opposed to waiting and hoping.

I'm going to sleep now, if I think of anything I'll post it in the morning.

fixed

As for the plan itself, I don't see any problems with it, since D3 will definitely net us a mafia even if KRZY or the watcher is NK'd.
Wojjan
I don't like anything of that. Let me point everything out:

One, we don't know how the watcher works. If the mafia played their game even a little cautious in the results of tracking or watching someone would've killed Two who had an expendable secondary night action ability, along the lines of roleblocking, framing etc. If those people self visit the night we're planning this and they kill the voyeur, we ain't got shit but a confirmed town mafia.

Two, we waste three odds of finsing scum. A watcher voyeur and tracker all can potentially find scum, and chaining them together (watcher checks tracker to see to it he doesn't get killed, a presumable doc in a setup this big protects watcher) basically means that the tracker (who is basically a rolecop including the stress of roleclaiming) will lose a night's investigation to confirm himself. We can work around this by sending tracker, watcher and voyeur to another target, but even then we can't work it out. Explaining nextly.

Three, nothing prevents the mafia of killing the appointed target. Since we only have a watcher and a voyeur and no means to link one name to the other, the mafia killing and the tracker tracking a specific target even with both the watcher and voyeur watching will deliver nothing else than "Target got visited by [Tracker] and [Mafia]" or "Target got killed, tracked." This is one obstacle we can work around by having the tracker as their target, but then again we can't really because the tracker will be dead and we lose what is right now our most powerful investigative role around.

Other than that it grievely concerns me that the watcher still hasn't claimed, we've got a shitstorm of lurkers around, we have had next to no discussion for a lynch target yet.

First off, I'll say that assuming the watcher is claiming anyway, we might as well go through with my plan. Even if something goes wrong, we can still lynch one of the two the next day as we would do today.

If we don't have the watcher claim, we leave the rest of our roles to be picked off and the aux roles to play "who is targeted next?" with their abilities and potentially get nothing out of it.

1. "The Watcher learns who targeted a player, but not what actions were performed on them. " Mafiascum wiki. I also find it unlikely that the mafia were that careful. Even so, refer to the above.

2. The voyeur cannot find scum on his own. If the watcher claims, we'll lose one of the other two tonight as well anyway. The watcher has to get lucky as hell to find scum, and the tracker as stated elsewhere here is going to die regardless in this scenario. I don't see how we're losing anything.

3. As I said, the tracker targets themselves, the watcher and voyeur both target the same one of the claimed trackers. Therefore, if the mafia kill the assigned target, the other was the mafia. Boom, easy. As for losing the tracker, by having the watcher do his thing we lose the tracker anyway if the mafia want him gone. However, in my scenario we aren't lynching the tracker at a 50% chance. Instead, if the mafia kill him as I just stated it's a free find.


tl;dr: The only way my plan has any problem based on what you said is if the watcher DOES NOT CLAIM. If the watcher does not claim the rest of our claimed roles are open to be picked off at mafia's choice.


Also, still tired but I believe I've answered all your concerns. If I've missed something tell me so I can answer it.

Tonight the mafia kills that one.

We lose the tracker.

the watcher is on the tracker. The mafia loses two mafia. Not really a gambit I'd take if I were them, with already a member down
LadySuburu

Wojjan wrote:

So if I'm following correctly, this is what you want:

50% chance of lynching the tracker and losing another power role at night, have just the one confirmed mafia.

50% chance of lynching mafia and losing the tracker at night, gain another mafia name next night.

VS

100% chance of not lynching the tracker, and a chance of lynching a different mafia

Basically 100% chance of tracker dying at night. We get the one confirmed mafia.



Is that about right?
bmin11
I was thinking if we just let the watcher target one of the two people without role claiming. We don't have to know the result from the watch to perform LS's plan. This way, the voyeur would be able to do his own thing for the night as well and not risk the chance of losing a watcher for the night.
Wojjan

bmin11 wrote:

Then the mafia will go after the voyeur or the watcher, and both tracker and maf will probably stay unconfirmed. The tracker won't be needing a counterclaim, but since they killed the watcher already the tracker dies next night regardless of the voyeur.
bmin11
and both tracker and maf will probably stay unconfirmed
According to LS's plan, trackers will track themselve. Once the watcher targets one of them for the night and figures if the person targetted himself or not, the watcher can just role claim on D3 and tell us the result of it. I think it would be fairly obvious at that point.

but since they killed the watcher
I doubt the watcher will survive this night if watcher role claims, because I'm also doubting there would be a doctor if we look at the night result. Not a sane doctor would let a double night kill happen knowing there were no guarantees Two had a protective ability. IF we have the watcher not to role claim, we would be taking a 1/6 chance of losing a watcher.

Is that about right?
Basically, yes. The chance of lynching another mafia today that doesn't counterclaim the tracker is slim, because hardly anyone has even discussed the lynch yet, everyone discusses what we'll do tonight. That's important but nothing to lynch on. The odds of lynching town or mafia while not considering the tracker is more leaning towards lynching town than lynching the two mafs I suspect remain in the group.

The odds of lynching the maf that cc's the tracker are one out of two, and we can check for ourselves which claim we think is the most believable.

In your situation that's 2/8 chance we lynch a maf today, and 100% for killing the next when we lose the tracker. so 2/8 for two mafs. That's 14 - KRZY, Watcher, Rolled, LS, Wojjan, Tracker

WARNING: PROBABILITY FOLLOWS HERE

Let's say there's two mafia left. The first choice will be to lynch the mafia correctly. That's a fifty percent chance, but it's a chance that we can influence with scumtells and the like. I'm going to assume we do lynch the mafia correctly.

The next night, the mafia will probably kill the watcher, because he'll be on the tracker. That means there'll be two mafia among 16 living players. Let's exclude uncc'd, confirmed town players (KRZY, Rolled, LS, Wojjan, Tracker). That leaves 8. From those, we can either take two paths. The tracker has a result on a mafia, which is a 2/8 chance. If this doesn't happen, we're left with 7 townies (because a tracker result that's not on the dead guy will exclude them from being mafia) among which we have 2 mafs still hiding. If we lynch a maf correctly after that, it's a 1/5 chance for lynching the last maf, and we have at least three mislynches (IMCAC) to do so. So that's 1/5,1/4,1/3. Basically, the chance that we WON'T hit the last mafia is (2*3*4)/(3*4*5) which is 50% again. If we don't ever hit mafia, the odds will be 2/5, 2/4, 2/3 and that makes a 1/10 chance.

so that's a 1/4 chance that we lynch all mafias on a bad day, and 9/20 on a good day, and that's relying only on chance, assuming there are NO more power roles, no more investigation, and no more lucky breaks from any power roles to out maf.

As far as mafia games go those are pretty nice odds. At least, to my calculations, better than yours.
Lybydose
Ok, this was my original plan for determining which of the two tracker claims were mafia:

Tracker A, voyeur, and watcher all go to the same target.
Tracker B tracks the motivator, who doesn't reveal his target.

B is determined scum if he can't correctly identify the motivator's target.
A is determined scum if watcher/voyeur results don't add up.

I also had a separate plan for if the duplicate claim was motivator, but I preferred this plan over that one. This is why I was proposing a certain claim order, as I wanted the tracker to be the duplicate claim instead of motivator.
Lybydose
Now then, since Wojjan is probably actually just targeting LS now, that plan doesn't really work. So, we could instead have Tracker A track LadySuburu instead. LS picks a target at random (or not!) and doesn't reveal it. It's highly unlikely it result in a misfired kill since it's only a 9% chance.
Lybydose
Oh yeah, and if the mafia just decides to kill the real tracker, they just narrow it down for us and the fake tracker is left. This is also preferable to them killing the watcher, since the watcher is a more valuable role than the tracker.
Wojjan
you mean less valuable but I hear ya.

Also I'll gladly mix it up between some of the confirmed townies. We've got a pretty list of auxes already, so I can target a random if LS isn't cool with taking a shot in the dark.
Lybydose
oops I meant Tracker B but whatever, you know what I mean.

Watcher is more valuable than Tracker because it's easier to predict which person the mafia will target at night than it is to predict who is mafia AND which one is going to perform the kill that night. And even then it could just be some other aux that just happened to target the same person as the mafia that night.
Wojjan
fakedit: the one problem I see though is when they kill me. I won't be around to verify the results, and if I boost a mafia member by accident (which probably won't happen) or if my target dies before receiving the boost we don't know for sure.
Lybydose
if they waste the kill on you, the voyeur and watcher survive to confirm the other tracker as either a real tracker or "isn't actually a tracker"

Actually disagree. Watcher is good for a semiprotection role where the mafia have to sacrifice a member to kill someone, but tracker can definitely confirm a lot of people for "not mafia" most of the time.

Been reading the thread, and it's all pretty self-explanatory EXCEPT...

Okay, so how does this work? Afaik a motivator grants his/her target with an extra action, and the probability of killing a target in two attempts, when your kill percentage is 9%, is not 99%, but rather 17%.
akrolsmir
Also this is all moot if the watcher doesn't claim, so hurry up and claim already.

We still don't have a lynch target for today.
Lybydose
If I had to make a guess, the watcher is DxS. He's still "reading the thread"
Lybydose
@KRZY: what the motivator actually does it up to the host. The default case is to give another action, but it's not uncommon for the motivator to "enhance" the role in some way. For example, it might "upgrade" a role, say by making a tracker into an actual cop. Or give masons daychat. Or turn a normal kill into a strongman kill.

NoHItter did something like this in his TF2 mafia game.

So, no thoughts about Watcher targetting a tracker and role claiming on D2? We would get the same result + Watcher and Tracker may have a chance of surviving the night.

hmm that's also a possiblity. The watcher doesn't claim at all and watches the tracker, who tracks himself? The tracker probably doesn't even need to claim either, as the watcher could probably figure it out (or if he can't, 50% chance anyway).
Lybydose
The problem though is that the mafia might just kill the watcher anyway and we're screwed. We currently have 14 players.

4 town have claimed already
3 (probably) mafia remaining
1 potential mislynch today

That leaves 6 possible watchers.

That gives mafia a 1/6 chance of randomly hitting the watcher. Then there are several people who are obviously not the watcher, so they could narrow it down even more. Probably risky at this point now that several people have claimed.

1/6 doesn't seem to bad to me. Ofcourse, mafia may able to narrow it down...

I don't like gambles like Wojjan or Bmin's plans, but it's also not solely my choice what we do.

At least now I know where wojjan's coming from.

Also, yeah. One of the flaws with wojjan's plan is that they just kill the watcher tonight. In that case, we're basically left with a weaker cop to perform one investigation.

Also Wojjan, we've still got a few days to discuss a lynch.. Day ends on tuesday if I remember reading right.


I'm fine with shooting in the dark, though I'd rather shoot someone I know is mafia.

If i have to choose i prefeer LS's plan , i don't see how letting the watcher die it's a good idea at all .. but the other plans aren't thaaat bad anyways.


I just can't provide ideas cause i suck at making plans , sorry guys :( .. doing my best to analyze the ones already proposed tho ^_^.
bmin11
The watcher is likely to die if we go with LS's plan as well
Salvage
You're right , sorry .. just got it all wrong , any ideas on how to make it work without letting the watcher die so easily?.
Raging Bull
Actually I kinda like LS's plan since it gives us a sure chance to get a mafia. I don't usually like risks orz

Maybe there's a doctor around that hasn't said a thing yet? :s

Not having the Watcher to role claim and execute LS's plan (Trackers track themselve while Watcher watchs one of them. Voyeur, do whatever you want). The downside of this is if the mafia gets a lucky shot and kills the watcher by 1/6 chance, we end up not knowing who were the Trackers.

I really doubt there is. I don't think the doctor would have let Two get NK'd while clearly Two didn't guaranteed any kind of protection for himself.

Yes but that's just by chance , the other one involves the watcher dying 100% , ofc the results are more likely to happen but just letting our most informative aux role to die this early it's an option i'd rather not take.

.......so you agree on Watcher not role claming?
Salvage
i prefeer it , yep.
