read the OP again. There are two Mafia.

You don't need to calculate anything, no lynch on day one is disadvantageous for town.
Yuukari-Banteki
also in retrospect it seems kinda stupid for us to, each Day, roll a n-sided die where n is the number of remaining players and lynch that person off, then expect the mafia to do the same and us to win. takes the entire point out of the game.

Of course such calculations ignore the Mafia or aux roles slipping up, but if the probability sways in favor of the Town by not lynching the first day there is likely a better chance of a Town win. (Note the use of maybies and perhapses.)

if we don't lynch today, the mafia get a free kill. im starting to really wonder about you, strager.

Here's what I get with my coding so far:
:!g++ -g mafia.cpp && ./a.out
Setup:
Mafia:
Normal: 2
Role blocker: 0
Town:
Normal: 9
Doctor: 0
Mafia wins 64.790765% of the time with lynch on Day 1
Mafia wins 78.437500% of the time with no lynch on Day 1
Still need to code the Doctor in and the Role Blocker too. Cop is ignored and I probably won't code him because he doesn't really do anything to sway the statistics except in claims and investigations and things, which are human factors.

I call BS, you meant to claim your roll. I was in the IRC with you before the game started. You could have sent your question as a PM to Suburu. You could have easily said that you were just curious. While lies generally do not help the town, the doctor role-claiming on the first day is worse.

Also, why are you ignoring these two posts?

Neither of those two pieces of code deals with our set-up. Why are you wasting time with things that don't apply? You can code all day, but when you get down to it, we aren't lynching someone at random. All that code does is consume time and block discussion.
Derekku
strager, are you NOT fucking listening? There's no point in coding over 9000 lines of code. No lynch day 1 = Free kill for mafia.

Should we also NOT lynch day 2? Day 3? :evil:

Like SFG said, I'm starting to wonder about you, strager :|

BagelBob_old
What you seem to be missing is
A) We have nine people and
B) we aren't going to lynch at random
Echo
No lynch d1 is disadvantageous for town. Plus, a lynch also shows voting patterns, which helps later on in the game to identify mafia. Please don't post pages of code, no one's going to read it anyway.
Derekku
strager, you don't seem to realize that in every setup for this game, there are TWO mafia. Unless you think that one of them is going to kill the other at night, then I don't know what the hell you're trying to get at.

It was relative suspicion at the time. The list can be disregarded now as my opinion has changed, though.

BagelBob wrote:

But you didn't leave them out, and now you ought to explain what you said. Who mixed up a sequence of events and which sequence of events was it? What is it that you misunderstood? Do you need clarification on some matter?
Echo misunderstood. He thought I was saying he thought I was a Mafia because he voted for me, and this is what he posted. What I had THOUGHT he posted was that I should tell him why he voted for me, or something, which was really confusing.

When I finally posted that, though, I DID understand what he meant. The few lines which probably confused people were saying I at first DIDN'T understand but now (and at the time I hit the submit button for that post) I DID.

BagelBob wrote:

This section is just a re-statement. I don't see any explanations, nor a need for any. Of course Echo thinks that you're a mafia. My first clue was the case, my second was the vote. I know you didn't think that Echo thought you were a vanilla townie. There was a whole section about whether or not you were fake-claiming as a townie, with Echo definitively of the mind that that would be a bad idea. You're saying that to make it look like Echo is lynching a townie. You should have at least said doctor, since that's what you're claiming to be.
Again, I wasn't trying to explain anything. I WAS re-stating.

I never said that. The exact thing you quoted:

All I meant to say there that one or two of adam, Echo, nardi, and SFG were bandwagonning as a Mafia, not all of them.

BagelBob wrote:

your junk about random voting is this:
In chronological order:

strager wrote:

In the first case I deduce one of these to be a Mafia: adam, SFG, nardi
In the third case I deduce these are probably NOT Mafia (because they didn't jump on the bandwagon): Derekku, 0_o

For the first case it seems as if adam's vote was random and SFG's vote was only somewhat random, as was nardi's. So my suspicions for the latter two are above my suspicions for adam. From that I really can't say much more though.

For the third case, 0_o seems to be really trying to defend me which either means he's deceitful (and will kill me at night) or genuinely trying to help the town. I'm not foolish enough to denounce the former but based on my observation above he may be a Townie more than a Mafia.
I really don't know what to think of Derekku because he hasn't been doing much from what I can see, really. He could be bad at analysis, not have information to discuss, or is smart enough not to talk because he may leak information. So ... not really sure.

BagelBob wrote:

In addition, did you mean that adam, SFG, and nardii's votes looked like bandwagon votes? You state that you think 0_o and Derekuu were not on the bandwagon, but then you throw junk about random voting. Adam's vote started out random, but he kept posting and saying that he was reading the thread and agreed with Echo's logic.

The random voting part was for the first case, and the 0_o and Derekku part was for the third case.

In that one situation with 1 mafia where it would be better to not lynch day 1, it doesn't make sense to me. How would that work? If you don't lynch day 1, the mafia gets a free kill. At least by lynching day 1 you have a chance of killing the mafia.

Right, because if we did have 1 scum and 7 town, if we lynced every day, lylo would be 3 town 1 scum, instead of 2 town 1 scum. What you keep posting is an 8 person game. We do not have an 8 person game. Stop posting code.

this does make sense, im going to go back to voting on adam like i should have been doing all along. 67% chance of hitting a mafia sounds great to me, and since im pretty sure Echo is vanilla, that means adam and nardi are the mafia members.

tl;dr vote adam, FOS nardi

Right, because if we did have 1 scum and 7 town, if we lynced every day, lylo would be 3 town 1 scum, instead of 2 town 1 scum. What you keep posting is an 8 person game. We do not have an 8 person game. Stop posting code.
My final results are based on the four possible game setups.

it says that 9 players with 2 mafia, the town has approximately 21.5% shot at winning.
With 8 players and 2 mafia, it's 29.8%.

So this means that from a statistical point of view, our odds in fact do go up if we choose not to lynch, since it will make it an even number of players (which is conformed to have better odds)
I personally trust my code more than such low percentages. That'd be a VERY unbalanced game.

EDIT: Actually I don't trust my code for the roleblocker part but I'm not pro at statistics there.

Actually it says "9 villagers and 2 mafia" for 21.5%, not 9 players.

According to that page:
7 villagers and 2 mafia: 15.6% Town win
6 villagers and 2 mafia: 22.8% Town win

The jump up is pretty significant still, but again, I don't trust it.

EDIT: (Just saw 0_o's last post.) Hmm, I see. I'll look into my program more.

It would be circular reasoning if I was saying he was scum because he didn't quick lynch.
I'm saying "If he quick-lynches, then he's probably a scum." This is logical because a townie wouldn't quick-lynch someone who claimed doctor.
You're saying that I'm saying "No one quick-lynched, thus they must not be scum because scum would quick-lynch" which is circular reasoning.

strager wrote:

In the first case I deduce one of these to be a Mafia: adam, SFG, nardi
In the third case I deduce these are probably NOT Mafia (because they didn't jump on the bandwagon): Derekku, 0_o

For the first case it seems as if adam's vote was random and SFG's vote was only somewhat random, as was nardi's. So my suspicions for the latter two are above my suspicions for adam. From that I really can't say much more though.

For the third case, 0_o seems to be really trying to defend me which either means he's deceitful (and will kill me at night) or genuinely trying to help the town. I'm not foolish enough to denounce the former but based on my observation above he may be a Townie more than a Mafia.
I really don't know what to think of Derekku because he hasn't been doing much from what I can see, really. He could be bad at analysis, not have information to discuss, or is smart enough not to talk because he may leak information. So ... not really sure.

In addition, did you mean that adam, SFG, and nardii's votes looked like bandwagon votes? You state that you think 0_o and Derekuu were not on the bandwagon, but then you throw junk about random voting. Adam's vote started out random, but he kept posting and saying that he was reading the thread and agreed with Echo's logic.

Where is this "junk about random voting?"
The random voting part was for the first case, and the 0_o and Derekku part was for the third case.
What is this? You asked what the junk about random voting was and I pasted it. Why is this here? What are you trying to say with it?

On the first day the first lynch is probably random anyway.
It might be in some games, but in this game, you claimed doctor, which greatly changes things.

I do not understand why I am the mafia if Echo is a vanilla, Nardi even less (since I know nothing about him and never see him post much)

Facts and figures please?
I assume you are referring to this:

EDIT: and if you think about it, his theory on strager's bandwagon (Echo, SFG, adam, nardi) does make some sense. Wouldn't you think a mafia member would jump at the chance to lynch the potential doctor? I think it's very likely that both of the mafia members are in that group.
this does make sense, im going to go back to voting on adam like i should have been doing all along. 67% chance of hitting a mafia sounds great to me, and since im pretty sure Echo is vanilla, that means adam and nardi are the mafia members.

tl;dr vote adam, FOS nardi
If we are going by the mentioned bandwagon theory, SFG knows (or says) she isn't mafia, and if she thinks Echo is a vanilla, then that leaves both you and nardi as the potential mafia, since no one else jumped in on the chance to lynch strager.

I'm going to mostly not comment on BagelBob's post because me explaining why I said something would be restating what I already said, then he'll just ask why I said that again.

I'm wondering how they came up with that table of numbers. With 5 players and 1 mafia, you've got an 80% chance of hitting town on day 1 and 66% of hitting town on day 2. That gives ~47% chance of hitting scum if you lynch randomly. I can't understand.

For one, I wasn't talking about our game on the IRC. I was telling strager that his comments didn't apply to our game.
For another, I refuse to read strager and derekuu's conversation on the IRC.
