How do you plan to judge someone's usefulness when deciding who to vote to touch the objekt?

Are you serious? I'm not sure we have the same definition of 'usefulness' here, but by 'useful' I mean 'not useless'. The most useful people will be those who are the least useless. I'm sure such a thing would be easy to judge once (if) discussion picks up. In any game of mafia, there will always be some kind of (blatantly) obvious hierarchy of usefulness of the players in the town. Or do you honestly not understand where I'm coming from?

It was a sarcastic remark to Natirasha. Pay no mind.

Too risky? You can't steal second if you keep one foot on first my friend......Risks are exciting! Plus Illl die of curiousity if we don't do something

Oh, and destroying it might have an effect too! What it if explodes or something? Nobody says destroying it might make it just peacefully dissolve

Actually, GT said that option D was no risk.

Yes...
Alrighty, I think we should either kontinue talking or just straight up bandwagon on matters about the objekt.

Seeing that there are so many ways to go about it and we'd need to have seven people agree to the same exakt thing.

So
Vote Option: K (being C)

Objekt vote: Vi and forbiddanknight

Seeing that those people put themselves in voluntarily.


@SSK - who is Mbf?

I'm checking whether the stuff you say is consistent, so I'm just curious in what way 1/10 was a margin of whatever error natirasha was accusing you of, since both sides are unclear.

As for touching the object, it doesn't really matter to me. I say that since our chances of winning are lower now, standard protocol dictates that we adopt the high risk/reward route.

I implied that 4 players was half the town, and apparently Natirasha strongly disagreed with that. Of course, I said 'half our chips' because it sounded better in context than 'four-tenths of our chips'.

I would think being more careful would be standard protocol. Two Townies down doesn't make for a five-alarm fire.

High risk reward is also careful. Because the highest risk/reward is one person touching, if you recall.

I was under the impression that high risk/high reward would be four people touching it.

vote option C

Two people touching feels like a reasonable move to me and a good balance of risk v reward.

touch vote: qwints and netlava

I like to be in the center of the action and netlava b/c I agree with his analysis.

I'm suspicious of the people voting for four touchers - that seems likely to ensure that the mafia get their hands on the object.
