Re: U-Pick Mafia Vol 1 - Day 2
NIGHT 1 ACCIDENT REPORT
Sorry folks, lessons are cancelled today and forever. Your climbing guide Marmot has fallen to his death.
His cries were heard from across the valley. A trauma expert happened to be nearby, and was on the scene within 10 minutes. He was greeted by a gruesome spectacle, and a marmot who had clearly died on impact from a climbing-related fall. The distance of the fall was unknown, but presumably upwards of 1,000 ft.
A small section of rope was attached to his harness and severed. Clearly his rope was cut, but by an unknown source.
Please be safe out there.

Wow you folks have been busy!!
Save some energy for tomorrow. We start ropework bright and early. The only way we're making it up any rock faces is with the right equipment and knowledge. That takes some time and dedication.
But for now, enjoy the rest of your evening!

Re: U-Pick Mafia Vol 1 - Night 1
One important rule of climbing, always back yourself up. When you're on the side of a giant rock face and a long way from the ground, multiple points of attachment to the wall is ideal for safety. If one of them fails for some reason, you've got a second or even a third option keeping you safe.

Re: U-Pick Mafia Vol 1 - Night 1
Good morning everyone.
This is Marmot here, and I'll be your rock climbing instructor for the remainder of this game. I'm glad to see you all here in this wonderful place and ready to climb. You don't have any gear? Oh well that's ok, I'll take care of that for you, and we can begin lessons tomorrow.
Charlie Blackmon, what are you doing here? Oh I see, you just happened to be in the area. Well, I know you can't climb with us, but I'm sure your insight and perception will be helpful nonetheless. I'll need another set of eyes with all these other folks here.
As for the rest of you, thanks for coming! We've got a looong climb ahead of us, so brace yourselves for what stands ahead. You've got a lot to learn, but we'll make it yet.

He usually kills my game when I'm townie, and frustrates me till I start dreaming of rage quitting. :P When I named him as a suspect, I hoped it would trigger a different kind of response where I could be sure of his towniness, as I have been in past games. How will Jay respond? That is a huge tell all in itself."

Re: U-Pick Mafia Vol 1 - Night 1
The thing I like about the triple lynch is that suddenly, more players will have made meaningful votes.
Instead of Player X being lynched with 6 votes while Players Y & Z live on with 4 votes apiece, all three players are lynched. Instead of Player Y's and Player Z's alignment remaining a mystery going forward to some unknown future time while the players who voted for them continue to have uncertain intentions, they would die immediately, and more information is gained about the players who died, as well as the players who lynched them.

Re: U-Pick Mafia Vol 1 - Night 1
I can crunch numbers, but I can only conjecture on whether it's better for town to have 2 extra days of discussion while those three players are lynched, or to get as much information as possible as quickly as possible, or some other benefit that either option will provide.JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Sun May 20, 2018 12:57 am Thank you Marmot. I have a feeling your alignment guesses are off, as 23-4-4 would be highly civilian slanted. Still, the basic concept of what you are saying is apt.
The question here must then be: going one at a time offers a slight improvement in raw probability while also increasing the probability of night killed civilians during the nights between those one-at-a-time lynches. One can also say to be fair that the increased time frame adjusts the raw probability further in an ideal world, to some unknowable degree.
Is it an agreeable trade?
I will stop screaming and allow others to pipe in.

Re: U-Pick Mafia Vol 1 - Night 1
No it's not. 2 mafia members out of 7 is .286 of the players. The probability of selecting 2 mafia members from a group of 7 players is .0476 (4.76%), a much lower rate.JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Sun May 20, 2018 12:33 amThe probability of a single civilian correctly identifying two mafia members out of 7 players (5v3 minus self) in one try is .286 -- the number Golden reported.

Re: U-Pick Mafia Vol 1 - Night 1
Simple scenario regarding the maths. I will make some assumptions on this. One player will die each night, and that one player who will die flips civilian. Also, that there are two teams of 4 mafia each, and that all independent players count as civilian here, leaving 8 mafia and 23 civilian roles in the game.
SCENARIO 1 - We lynch 3 players in one day.
We lynch three players tomorrow. Assuming there are 30 players alive after Night 1, the following odds result from this.
We lynch one player each of the next three days, allowing two nightkills to happen in the process (2 more dead civilians over those three lynches). The following odds result over that span.
Addendum: yes this requires assumptions. The odds are pretty similar, slightly edging having the tri-fecta lynch. Additionally, Scenario 2 requires that two players are nightkilled by the time the third player is lynched, adding two additional deaths to the toll.
SCENARIO 1 - We lynch 3 players in one day.
We lynch three players tomorrow. Assuming there are 30 players alive after Night 1, the following odds result from this.
- Lynching 0 mafia = 37.9%
- Lynching 1 mafia = 45.5%
- Lynching 2 mafia = 15.2%
- Lynching 3 mafia = 1.4%

Re: U-Pick Mafia Vol 1 - Night 1
I was about to do a statistical analysis of Syndicate games to see what the top three vote-getters were alignment-wise. Then I realized that the effect is lost if people don't realize they're lynching the top three players, so the point would not help.

Re: U-Pick Mafia Vol 1 - Night 1
Remember that just because we lynch three players doesn't mean we each get three votes. We likely each only get one. That's the biggest downside of Option 6. Each of us only has the say to lynch one of the three players, and no say (with our vote) to lynch the other two.

Think about it. We'd most likely end up lynching the same people within the next couple days, and if they end up being civ, then that sucks but it sucks more if we waste three days doing it. Better to get that over with early and learn from it, and odds are we'll lynch someone bad and have much better direction going forward.
The town will control the top lynch. It won’t be at all difficult for the mafia to control the second and third. The idea that you just march on and lynch those people anyway is demonstrably false, often second place in an early lynch survives the whole game. I cannot overstate how strongly this option favours mafia.
What’s more generally speaking speeding up the rate of death in any given fashion is considered not to alter balance so for jay to make this claim is HIGHLY suspect.
