Screw the players - Bad Idea - Game Over

[Elmo]

Here's an interesting setup.

[Bookitty]

I don't want to waste a bullet on Jordan considering he's probably not even /in.

[YagamiLight]

[quote="KaleiÐoscøpe"]I've decided to cut the playerlist to twelve, with 2 scum. It makes it more enjoyable if the outies are in more numbers, as they would be in a small amount in case of 20 players. Sign ups will end tomorrow.[/quote]Nope skitzer, only 2, unless he went back after this. Did he and I missed it?

[JordanA24]

shoot: JordanA24

What?!

[skitzer]

No, I missed it. Sorry

OMG! What are we doing? You could have at least waited until Kalei posted to see if Jordan was killed or not...

This game is going down the tubes already.

[Bookitty]

Skitzer cares about the game, therefore he's obviously /in, therefore I'm saving my bullet for later, when he doesn't expect it.

[skitzer]

Yeah, i'm in, so what? Last game I tried to fly low, and it failed. We're trying a diff strategy.

[YagamiLight]

I haven't decided the strategy I'm going to play by yet, until I do I'm just posting whatever. My current favorite idea is to save my bullet for use as one of the last 3 bullets, in a showdown style with my intended target, have someone else post fire at any time, and the first of us to fire. Of course that doesn't matter if my target is /out or scum as they can't shoot anyways.

[PokerFace]

First

what we need is a foolproof way to determine who is /in and who is not. This way we can conserve ammo.

Second

we need a systematic way to decide who shoots and when and at who. The AT WHO part is based on who is scummy through normal hunting means. The WHO SHOOTS part can pretty much be anyone. Since mafia can't shoot perhaps there is a way we can ask mafia to shoot and learn they are mafia merely by the fact that their bullets don't work, we may be able to use something simular to determine that the /outs bullets don't work.

these are brainstorming coments. If anyone can find the answers to either of these coments feel free to expand on these ideas.

[Elmo]

The person most likely to be /out (or scum) should be doing the shooting, no?

[Vaughn]

See the problem is, Scum can lurk like crazy and act as an out just to prevent himself/herself from becoming a target. Overall, hitting scum without even knowing who's in the game is nigh-impossible.

[Cephrir]

Shoot: JordanA24

[Elmo]

Well, they can't ultra-lurk, that's in the rules. Beyond that, yeah, it's going to be interesting.

[skitzer]

I'd say Jordan is sadly dead by now.

I'm about to shoot myself....lol.

[klebian]

gah i missed the beginning

anyway just for fun

shoot: jordana24

and yagami's right: 2 scum

[Guardian]

lol@random shooting.

[skitzer]

lol@random shooting.

Hey shouldn't you be:

post.

[Iammars]

C'mon guys, this is Bad Idea mafia. The whole fun of it is that people do quick killings!

[JordanA24]

Why do I bother?

[JordanA24]

Honestly, nobody post any more strategies in this game, you'll just end up as human target practice by the looks of it.

[hasdgfas]

Skitzer cares about the game, therefore he's obviously /in, therefore I'm saving my bullet for later, when he doesn't expect it.

Did you read the first STP? The first one had Troj, who cared about the game a lot, but was /out.

FoS: Boo

[Bookitty]

I didn't read it, Asdf.
Is it required reading before being in this one?
If so, EEKS!

[Alan Redgown]

I really hope most of the people shooting Jordan are /out or scum.

[Thestatusquo]

Shoot: Jordan

[hasdgfas]

I don't think it's required, but don't make any assumptions on who's /in or /out based on number of posts or how much they care about the game.
