Assuming 3 scum, it's 4/225 that they are all paired together.
For them to be paired with the scum god too, it's 4/675.
Chances are slim that scums will be paired together like that.Yes my Lord, but questions are dangerous, for they have answers.

OBJECTION!Hito wrote:(Assuming three scum, which seems about right for this size setup, there's only a 1/9 chance they're all together, and only a 1/27 chance they're together with the scum Immortal).
Start by choosing one arbitrary scum player and putting him an an arbitrary group. There is then a 4/14 chance of placing the next scum with him and a 3/13 chance of placing the one after him in the same group. Overall, that's 6/91, or a little less than 1/15. Factor in a 1/3 chance they'll be put with their god and that's 6/273.
Alternatively, there are 15!/(5!^3) ways to put players with gods. There are 3 gods to put scum with times 12C5 times 7C5 ways to arrange the town, given positions for scum. Divide to get 6/91.
Just saying.-

Kitty, it isn't 6/91. You forgot to multiply by 5/15. You simply did 4/14 * 3/13 which gives you 6/91.Yes my Lord, but questions are dangerous, for they have answers.

It depends how Zor randomized it as to whether it's my numbers or LL's.

For what it's worth, I randomized the positions as follows:
1-5 are God A's followers, 6-10 God B's, 11-15 God C's.
then I fed numbers 1-15 into a random list generator and the first X numbers (where X is the number of scum in this game) were scum. For example, if there are seven scum in this game and my randomizer listed 3,5,7,9,13,14,15 as numbers, then there would be 2 scum under Gods A and B and three under God C..-

So, questions.
1. Short deadline or long deadline?
2. Double-vote or immunity?
3. Do you agree that questions look better when there are three of them?
1. Short deadline.
2. Double-vote.
3. Yes.

NO.
1. LONG deadline.I INSIST ON THIS. Long deadlines favor TOWN.
2. I'm going to have to piss away that double-vote on Day 1 when it counts the least, I can only grant it every 4 days.
3. Yes, yes and yes.Paraphrasing a role PM takes seconds, fabricating a good fakeclaim takes an eternity.

1. Agreed. Long is better.
2. Save the Night Immunity for later in the game. I agree. It'll be more useful at that time.
3. I see what you did there DGB.Yes my Lord, but questions are dangerous, for they have answers.

A lot of scumtells involve information being somewhere it shouldn't be. Understanding the probable links between mortals and immortals, scum and town, helps us track the information.M=w wrote:Can you explain why? Isn't who's acting scummy what matters? Why do we care about probabilities when they don't relate to anything in-game?
Though on reflection this is the sort of speculation better kept pocketed until someone actually catches something, so.
1. Depends on the dynamic of the day. There are such things as too short and too long of days, and both of them are detrimental to the town. The first day should probably have a pretty long deadline, at any rate.1. Short deadline or long deadline?
2. Double-vote or immunity?
3. Do you agree that questions look better when there are three of them?
2. Double-voter seems pretty pointless today. Immunity is nice if a probably-getting-nk'd player pops up; otherwise it wouldn't be particularly detrimental to have them both off cooldown.
3. Ambivalent."Don’t buy a dozen eggs if you just want a hardboiled egg. Don’t buy a head of lettuce if you just want a salad. Don’t buy eggs and lettuce if you want egg salad because those are not the right ingredients." -Julius Bloop-

Regardless, the meat of my point is still intact. "Immortals do not take requests from mere Priests" is not an answer to anything."Don’t buy a dozen eggs if you just want a hardboiled egg.
