Mini 686 - Chess Mafia (Done)

[Max]

Btw, despite the fact the mod hasn't announced it I'm a new replacement. We have 15 days worth of information for us to use to find scum, we no longer should be playing the chess, we should play the mafia

[Max]

I'll read through and vote for a player tomorrow

Why?

Because the mafia can influence the moves we make, they have a strategy, so they have the advantage when we play chess, now we are a good deal through the chess game we can now use information that has been gathered throughout the playtime. Though at some points it may be hard to tell who is misleading scum or stupid town we can rattle down a large number of players.

[Max]

You should probably bear in mind that even if we are thinking 5 turns ahead we are giving a significant advantage to scum as they know how not to react for our plan.

On another note Be3 looks better in my opinion

[Max]

Is that "lynch"?

[Max]

If we move to E3 they'll probably move to g5, followed by us a bishop to C3 then they move their knight to C5 (if they're following optimal strategy), then we'll move bishop to d3. It gives us a bishop and a knight at most, overall a disappointing plan.

Vote: Qe3

[Max]

I played a friend from a position exactly like this today, when I say exactly like this I thought, "god now I've got to decide which one to do, Qb3 or Qe3. Then I did Qb3 and lost, though I suppose this time I probably would see what was coming. Just I feel the space may be jinxed

[Max]

I will be gone From Monday-Friday, possibly Saturday too, I have a funeral to go to. Sorry Guys, feel free to replace me.

[Max]

I don't see why the knight would go to N3.

I personally can see several moves in your list that the mafia would never make

Vote: Indigo Heron

Unvote:Qe3

Vote: Qb3

[Max]

King is better, on every single point.

Move: Kxd2

Personally I agree with the rule change, though it benefits scum this game is really not mafia when you only do one. If there wasn't a clause saying you could change rules then obviously don't but as a moderator I always allow myself to change rules if the game needs it. Imho this game most definitely needs it.

[Max]

How does that rule change benefit anyone but scum? That includes the mod and the game itself. It won't make the game run quicker. I also disagree that this change is needed. The only rule change I would agree to is something like a chess clock system. That is something that would make things go faster while still keep it interesting, but it should also not benefit scum more than town.

I'm not lynching anyone. I'd sooner replace out for the first time in my mafia scum career.

(Max your post is scummy as hell btw.)

If there aren't any lynches I don't see how you can call this game mafia, it has an informed minority and an uninformed majority but there is little/no mafia theme to this, I would rather we use the information that we have found over the past 18 Days to find which moves benefit scum and which don't, and by that find who's been corrupting town the most

[Max]

I agree with the above post

[Max]

Yeah. Lets.

[Max]

Sudo_Nym has actually lost a game of chess :O...
