I was trying to say that without saying it. Oh well never mind at this point. Ruins the plan.

Reading my reason is fundemental.
Sarcasm is just a way of saying how stupid you think someone is but in a more polite way.-

Can you please clarify? I don't see why people who played games with others will be more likely to place an alert on them for that sole purpose. The games are separate and the roles are different.farside22 wrote:Reading my reason is fundemental.

That sounds good. I think we should just think of the amount of time we can hold the kill as a deadline. The deadline for every meeting is a week. Instead of lynching, we decide by majority vote who should be assassinated.Also do we want to talk about who we think should be shot and make is so the person who has the kill does it before the week is up so we know who we feel we can trust.-

Scum know each other. Therefore they need not worry about putting an alert against there scum buddy. The rest of us don't have that knoweledge and would have picked someone just at random for what ever reason we could think of.SleepyPanda wrote:

But the thing is, not everyone has alerts. It's also unknown if only loyalists can have them, or if rebels can too.farside22 wrote: Scum know each other.

Page 1 has the answer

Don't really see how that answers it as it's pretty vague. You can interpret "not everyone can block" as in only loyalist can block. That fits the clause as not everyone can. But from how he replied, I guess they can.farside22 wrote:Page 1 has the answer

I think the answer to that is also on page 1:
He implied that not everyone has alerts, so that means not everyone can block.ABR wrote:2.c)Some of youhave alerts. Before an akatsuki meeting begins, you will PM me your alerts in the following format:
So I'm guessing that most likely, all or almost all of the scum have alerts, and there are at least 1 townspersons with no alerts.
@Claus: could you explain why guessing the setup day 1 is bad? I've been thinking about it and I can't seem to figure it out.-

EBWOP: Whoops, just noticed that sleepypanda already posted that in 82.
Addendum:
But couldn't they just lie about their alerts anyways? I don't think there is anything useful about everyone claiming who their alerts are.farside22 wrote:Scum know each other.

Catch them off guard how? By having them admit who they placed their alerts on? And you somehow believe that they would not place their alerts on a fellow scum buddy, right? You seem to have an awfully lot of faith in scum telling the truth. What if a loyalist revealed who they placed their alerts on? That would completely ruin your plan. Besides, I don't see how admitting alerts will help everyone else narrow down anyone. You don't know their alignments, and you don't know if they are telling the truth. The only thing it does is help the rebels.farside22 wrote: I was hoping to catch them off gaurd, but alas I explained myself poorly.-

Would you place your alert on a scum buddy day 1? No I don't expect them to tell the truth now, but at the time they may have flobbed and gone along with it without realizing the information they were giving away.SleepyPanda wrote:

You're still assuming that anyone that reveals their alerts would be scum. If a loyalist revealed, you'll be on the completely wrong track then.farside22 wrote:

Sorry for not being around. Weekend and stuff (points at profile).
Setup discussion is bad because it detracts from scumhunting. Scum can discuss the setup just as well as town, without leaving out the necessary clues we need to hunt them down.
A certain ammount of setup discussion, of course, is necessary - but speculation about the number and groups of scum like batt did on page 2 at this stage of the game is empty discussion.
I think there is a thread at MD right now that talks about it.
I'll be back to play later.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XVVmAG0RXmo-

A majority vote on who should be assassinated is a good idea. We can still lynch someone, but every two kills a new meeting starts. That resets the steals and alerts. This means we really need to keep track of a majority vote of who should be killed. If the person with the kill doesn't follow that, we can be sure they aren't being loyal.
Discussing the set-up is bad, because the Mod warned us that claiming is not helpful, ever. As Claus said, "it detracts from scumhunting." No reason we need to.

I'd also like to establish how assassintions would be done.
1) Assassinate instead of lynching so we can prevent it from going silent.
2) UsingAss:to place assassination vote instead of lynching vote.
3) Assassinate a day early before deadline. This is to prevent the assassination skill from accidentally going silent. I rather not wait until the point of the deadline to take action.
4) Have a follow-through, lynch when no assassination takes place. For example, say our majority vote is on a rebel, but the person who holds the assassination skill also is a rebel. They might be inclined to not assassinate their partner.Do the rebels also have a time limit to how long they can hold the assassination skill?
Discuss, modify, add to your heart's content.-

This new rule makes things very interesting. You didn't think ABR would make a vig themed game and allow the vig kills to not be utilized did you? :p I personally like the new rule, that's why I joined this game in the first place. Having said that, if assassinating against the majority's wishes, and you get it wrong, do so at your own risk. We should stow the set-up talk for now, as has been noted. Also I don't think alerts should be discussed unless you are desperate (about to get the chop etc.)In a permanent state of Limited Access. I'll understand if I'm replaced in my current games.-
