Hmm.... couldn't the town win by threatening anyone who posts an answer with lynch? If the mafia can't act at night they can't kill us, after all.

We need to be smarter about this whole "trivia" thing, guys. It doesn't matter, cause you guys already blindly rushed into answering, but tomorrow let's take a little time to think about the implications first, all right?

I'll wait to see if anyone has a conflicting answer on the Earth question, I have no clue.

Locus Cosecant · Post Post #65 (isolation #3) » Fri Jan 21, 2005 12:13 pm

If feasible, justinl should be modkilled and the question replaced with another in the same category.

I, uh, played the

of that game... for some reason I keep wanting to say SOLDIER, but that's from FF7.

Anybody else know?

category-War

And I propose that anyone who posts an answer to a question before the town has a chance to use the trivia aspect to its advantage be immediately lynched. Do you folks agree with this?

I'm not sure what you mean by this? The category selection pattern?

No, I mean that if the only people who can make night choices are the people who give correct answers, and we can see who gives answers, we can exploit this to our advantage. It seems to me that it would be correct to go no lynch every day, and only let one person a night answer questions. The next day, if anyone dies, we lynch that person. If that person is a cop who got a guilty result, he comes out, we lynch the one with a guilty result on him, and we let the cop answer again if his result wound up accurate. As long as people don't foolishly answer questions without thinking, I think town's got this one in the bag.

Locus Cosecant · Post Post #135 (isolation #12) » Sat Jan 29, 2005 9:32 am

So no one dies unless we lynch them, and we lynch no one until we have a cop investigation. Sounds good to me.

Locus Cosecant · Post Post #137 (isolation #13) » Sat Jan 29, 2005 9:43 am

The longer we wait, the liklier we are to lose cop. And how on earth can you not play mafia to win?

I kinda thought that was just flavor. If it isn't, maybe we should just have cop come out, to accelerate things a little.

Explain. This at least bears thinking about before we go answering willy-nilly.

No one should counter-claim a false copclaim, I guess... it would be criminal not to try some sort of strategem.

Locus Cosecant · Post Post #149 (isolation #17) » Sat Jan 29, 2005 1:37 pm

They could play it that way, but 2 town for one mafia is not that bad a trade.

Who is this Lotus Cosecant person, and why are you bandwagoning him?

Also,

vote Dragon Phoenix

. We have information now, so random wagonry is the height of folly. Also, if you're doing what I think you're doing, you're randomly bandwagoning the most vocal member of the town, which is a disgusting way to play.

Fair enough.

unvote Lotus Cosecant

Now, let's see, what next? Ah yes:

vote Locus Cosecant

Why?

Locus Cosecant · Post Post #169 (isolation #20) » Mon Jan 31, 2005 6:56 am

We've had more than one day, though, surely you have more to base your decision on than the fact that I post more than many of the people.

Locus Cosecant · Post Post #173 (isolation #21) » Mon Jan 31, 2005 11:12 am

Pooky, you are wrong. I did not show you that I did not submit a nightchoice. I believe you may have me confused with Coron.

Lancaster was red, so that would make York white, right? It's been too long since I've cared. about this.

Blatantly giving the wrong answer despite the fact that we haven't worked out an answering strategy yet, and despite the fact that we went over this with Coron on day 0.

I agree with Coron, Dmi, though I don't know that I'm willing to place a vote just yet based on that. Do they

suggest

it? Or do they outright state it?

Why does an electrical engineer track night actions?

Actually, thrawn1020, the pertinent part of that quote was "But if you want to know, I track electrical flows to see who accessed whose cryopod during the night." That was the explanation for which I had asked.
