Because the forum's generally inactive. We used to do plurality lynches before. I admit that the hammer only system increases activity, but not enough. The compromise of lynching if the target is at least L-1 fits better.
Activity is not an issue there, but the TeamLiquid site's mafia community uses a hybrid lynch mechanic. Achieve majority before deadline and the game day ends with a majority lynch. If it doesn't, then the player with the most votes at the end of the day is lynched.

And with that, especially if we're going with plurality lynch there's info about my role that town should be aware of.

I'm a double voter.

that's what we used to do around here aswell and what NH means with plurality lynch.

Not Voting - Nyquill, Raging Bull

With 13 votes in play it takes 7 to lynch

Nyquill will be prodded at midnight if he hasn't posted by then.
Sephibro
ok fferyllt is probably town
Raging Bull
Why are people even voting for bubbajack again?
Sephibro
unvote

are you happy now
Raging Bull
No, because now you put me up for lynch.

bubbajack8 wrote:

1. There's no pressure on you. Makes you look like scared scum.
2. If you were actually town it makes you a night target.
3. There's no town reason to soft a role that blatantly.
so it looks like im scared scum when i only had one vote on me. That's bullshit. Granted you don't know my meta, but I never considered one vote to be actual pressure.

And if that makes me look town because of my soft claim, then then its counter intuitive to vote for me.

3 Ok then. Also my fault since I reread my pm when I was going to explain and I cannot do what I wanted to do.

also everybody who's town please vote the majority lynch thanks

why would plurality lynch give scum less incentive lurk? Lurking is probably what they'd want to do if a lynch is happening towards town without a hammer.

I need to dial back the cryptic.

My question was "why do you two have such strongly different opinions about whether majority lynch is good/bad here?" Tanz gives some indication for his position. I don't know what yours is.

I have some biases from offsite play, but I want to understand the pros and cons HERE before I decide how to vote.

Also, a limit of 2 embedded quotes is seriously cramping my style.

watch this game for example

I was mafia with GIF and DakeDekaane, we just waited until the deadline for a plurality lynch without actually doing anything

and this is the scum QT of that game where we talked about abusing the plurality lynch http://www.quicktopic.com/50/H/KA3ghGkDdmQEU

im just saying that with plurality lynch mafia can just sit there and do nothing, if they need to achieve majority for a lynch they can't lurk until deadline

ok let's talk about doublevoter role

we recently had a game where there was a town doublevoter (rEdo) and a scum doublevoter (CalignoBot) (multiball)

there were 2 big differences between these 2 roles:
1. town dv has to post his second vote on topic, as if it was a normal vote, while scum dv could post it by pm to the mod
2. town dv appeared with his name in the votecount for both his votes, while the second vote of scum dv was anonymous
do you need further explanation Caligno or is it clear enough?

Yeah. You forgot the part where roles were given before alignments.
Raging Bull
Something about GiF makes me think he's town. But why do you want to see bubba dead the most?
Raging Bull
Also in the DotA small town, scum was double voter. I don't think we had to post in QT to vote. Maybe all roles were revealed, but I think it's almost the same here since roles are not alignment indicative.
GuyInFreezer
Hmm
let's flashwagon navizel for lulz (and for that newb mafia game)

vote: Navizel
NoHitter
I'm townreading him not because he's a doublevoter alone, but because he claimed doublevoter on D1.
Scum doublevoter would want to hide being a doublevoter until the last moment.
Amianki
How does claiming on D1 mean they won't be able to use it for scum-benefiting reasons? Hiding the double vote until the last moment is giving up a powerful role for your team for the ability to scumclaim later by suddenly bringing it out.
Raging Bull
your bars are full of shit.
Sephibro
also that^

btw where is it said that roles are chosen before alignment - that's just stupid if you ask me
Amianki
Raging Bull
Actually why did fferylt claim when we didn't agree on MC?
Sephibro
that's silly

Silliness of it doesn't mean jack shit if it's true.

That's assuming you can get to LyLo alive first.

And what's with the attempt to flash lynch Navizel whn you wanted bubba dead?

Who said lynch?
I said wagon.
btw

Since the vote on him is unnecessary.

oh, i thought it said lynch. And what was the claim for then?

wouldnt it be better to use in on a scum read player? And why did you not use it on bubba holy shit motherfuck. you don't want to answer my question.

Because I was waiting for him to do stuff that either looked town as hell or scummy. bubba can be very obvtown if he's one.
Anyway, I got bored waiting for him.

aaaaaaaaagh I'm in too many games

RB can be town for role PM shenanigans. Dake is town

I'm starting to realize that maybe I can't read sephibro since he's starting to look like supreme obvscum every god damn game.

In case Navi dies, we can either confirm or lynch GIF tomorrow. I can't read him at all as role likely means nothing in this setup.

Because it's data that should be considered in the decision process.

I'm a consensus based player. I don't really like having the doubled voice, but I do. So, it's on the table. And we can think about what scum has to counter it.

being obvtown produces a shitty meta
Amianki
Being obvscum every game is infinitely worse. Stahp.
Nyquill
being obv anything produces shitty meta.

So here's what I'm getting out of this game so far:

Bubba random wagon produces little to no results.
GIF likes my meta a lot.
fery claims DV, pseudo LR inc.
People want RB dead...why?

Am I missing anything.
Sephibro
im not obvscum, you're just bad at reading

not being obvtown != being obvscum
