If that happens it benefits town, yes. There is no way of knowing if it happened, and it is irrelevent to town, if someone moves from one cult to another, even if they were town a one point.Smooth as silk when he's scum, and very much capable of running things from behind the scenes while appearing to be doing minimal effort. - Almost50

If a town is picked and a cult member is picked? Of course. Heck if 2 cops are picked that's awesome.kabenon007 wrote:I'm just saying that, in those ideal circumstances, it is helpful to the town.
But what does that have to with whether it succeeds or not?
The correct scenario should've been
Cult A and B, A picks a townie, B picks a cult A member. Either:
1. Cult A stays the same size and B grows 1 and town loses 1
or
2. Cults A gains 1, B stays the same because it fails, and town loses 1
Same scenario for the town. Your scenario had them targetting different people. But how would whether it fails or not change the target?ShowGames - 31
Town - Win=9, Loss=10
Mafia - Win=5, Loss=4
Abondoned = 3
I feel for the rest of the players every time I get a town PM.-

EBWOP: Why did that take almost a full page to discuss and come to a conclusion about?
It's not hard. If town's green and cult's are red and blue, no matter how much red and blue swap, how does that affect the size of the green?ShowGames - 31
Town - Win=9, Loss=10
Mafia - Win=5, Loss=4
Abondoned = 3

Sigh but the cults don't KNOW who is in another cult so they will be targetting other cults and the town.lord_hur wrote:Hmm actually, if CRs can fight with each other for recruits, that's less pressure for town, since they're not the only pool of players who can be recruited.
Whether it fails or not no matter who they target doesn't affect the town in any way shape or form. It only affects the cults. And since it affects the cults equally it really doesn't matter whether they're recruitable or not, just makes it really complicated for the person who shifted cults five times =pShowGames - 31
Town - Win=9, Loss=10
Mafia - Win=5, Loss=4

I changed my vote to mizzy but forgot to unvote. I don't know if I believe her myself, but since she will be leaving us. (Good Luck by the way the next few weeks will be rough and I should know). I think TSN is the better lynch.

No because remember the blues reds and greens don't KNOW who's blue red or green =pkabenon007 wrote:Because if the blues and reds hadn't been swapping each other, the green would have gone down. But because the red and blue are fighting amongst themselves, they are not depleting the green. While the town doesn't gain members, it doesn't lose them either.
Please re-read my scenario and see how it never affects the town.
Either that or someone else post on this and explain it better.
If the cult KNEW who the town/other cults were then it'd make a difference because they'd obviously choose the town or choose the other cults depending. But if they're simply picking from a grab bag and you take 2 scenarios where they take the same people it matters not.
Here we go, nice and in depth lol
Cult A, Cult B, town
Scenario 1: Both cults take from the town(by chance since they don't know).
1a and 1b. town loses 2 whether cultists can be recruited or not.
Scenario 2: Cult A takes from Cult B and Cult B takes from Cult A.
2a. They switch places being recruited, town loses nothing.
2b. They don't because it fails, town loses....wait for it...nothing.
Scenario 3: Cult A takes from town, Cult B takes from Cult A
3a. Cult A stays the same and Cult B grows 1, town also loses 1
3b. It fails so Cult A grows 1, Cult B loses 1, and town also loses...wait for it...wait for it....ONE!!!
So as we can see class, IT DOESN'T MATTER! Whether they're recruitable or not does NOT ever, ever, EVER affect the town.
Now is this discussion helpful in any way or necessary? No. But don't quote statistics wrong and expect me to sit back and watch =pShowGames - 31
Town - Win=9, Loss=10
Mafia - Win=5, Loss=4
Abondoned = 3

Unvote, vote TSPN.
If it will take two pro-town players dying to get this town to stop going in circles and start lynching, then so be it. Besides, Iamrecruitable, so I need to die before this day is over anyway. (So does mizzy).
I don't buy macavenger's claim. Its just such a convenient "probably not in the game but believable anyway" choice. Jedinight also rubs me the wrong way.-

Wrong. If a CR targets (at random) a player already following another cult, that other CR knows that that particular player has been stolen from his cult and is currently in another cult. He can thus try to steal him/her back. This can be a good option because the CR already knows that the person is recruitable, so that his action WILL have an effect. And this is pro-town because the CR is not trying to tap from town.Muerrto wrote:lord_hur wrote:Hmm actually, if CRs can fight with each other for recruits, that's less pressure for town, since they're not the only pool of players who can be recruited.All lurkers unite!

Nothing wrong with going in circles. Later we can look for relationships. The more and the faster the merrier.
Now we should pick on Xtomx.

You say it's important not to go to night yet your not voting someone likely to be lynched. It's easy to say "Lets keep it day people!" but words without action are pretty useless.
And... well I'm mostly voting because of the self vote thing. I think doing that is stupid in any game. Probably why i do it alot XDIt's not my job to be right, it's my job to be convincing.

I just meant I can't see a case in which voting "End day" wouldn't be anti-town.Korlash wrote:You say it's important not to go to night yet your not voting someone likely to be lynched. It's easy to say "Lets keep it day people!" but words without action are pretty useless.
As I said earlier, I will follow Adel's strategy involving quicklynching. I knew I'd be active today and TSPN is still at L-3, but you're right, I could as well have voted him earlier.
