Mini 536: Heroes Smalltown. Game Over!

[shaft.ed]

I'd like a popcorn claim if we are claiming. Vote on the first person to claim, then the claimer passes the hot potato until everyone has claimed.

These two posts by Yvonne D1 and early D2 are troubling me as unsubstantial distancing from Adele:

Going by instinct however, I've a generally bad feeling about Adele. Can't really explain it.
...
I passed on my powers 'cause I thought the SK would kill me last night. The voices in my head are still screaming "Adele's scum!!!". No idea why.

Here's how. Double blind and encrypted.

One player orders the players from one to eight. Posts it encrypted. Other player generates a random string of integers on random.org and posts it encrypted. Then they both post the encryption strings and we all go decrypt and claim in that order.

Does anyone think that MatchCam may have been killed to lessen the long case DGB made against Yvonne?

[The Fonz]

for shits and giggles Fonz, I think you should claim too...you have had two nights of not claiming...time you did maybe?

Again, I'm more than happy to do so if a majority want it and/or someone can demonstrate why it would benefit the town. Tell you what, i'll even throw in my protections from nights one and two, just for kicks.

I like Shaft.ed's popcorn idea.

How would that work?

[curiouskarmadog]

dont like everyone voting to see who goes first, dont like popcorn, dont like two seperate player "generating lists"...I like dice..if there is no way to fake them..what is the issue?

[cicero]

generating lists IS dice. I didnt realise there was that function right on the board. Sorry. CKD you make sense.

I cant seem to get the syntax to work right though.


<num_dice>d<sides_per_dice>

Teach me?

[cicero]

<5>d<8>

[cicero]

/shrug.

[shaft.ed]

Good point on the voting and lots of scum.

Dice work by saying 1d8 of the eight players. That number claims (number being order on front page). Then 1d7, so on until everyone gets a turn.

[shaft.ed]

Just in case it wasn't clear I advocate dice tommorow.

[shaft.ed]

Original Roll String: 1d8

1 8-Sided Dice: (1) = 1

[shaft.ed]

cic, just type 1d8, highlight text, click dice button up top.

[cicero]

Yeah. I just cant seem to get the syntax to work for me.

[cicero]

Original Roll String: 1d8

1 8-Sided Dice: (8) = 8

Original Roll String: 5d8

5 8-Sided Dice: (3, 2, 5, 4, 4) = 18

K. Got it.

It's totally cheatable. I can hit preview until I get the number I want. I just did.

[The Fonz]

The number that appears in the actual post is different (well, randomised again) from the one that appears in preview.

[shaft.ed]

yeah it will reroll each time you hit preview or submit.

[cicero]

Ahhhh. Very good. It will work just fine then. We'll just have whoever is claiming do the next dice roll and it will all be ever so happy and efficient. That's IF we are claiming.

Sorry to go all noob on everyone and kill a page of thread.

[Seol]

Here's how. Double blind and encrypted.

No encryption.

[shaft.ed]

the first place, those of you who didn't even agree with watchers going last, you should have voiced out yesterday

Why would we want to have this discussion in advance of the claiming day so that the two watchers who each have a 3/8ths chance of being scum will know they are in the clera?

[curiouskarmadog]

I have no problem doing a popcorn dice rolling thing

[shaft.ed]

Now, watching powers are useful for catching folk in lies, right? Except a watcher can, in fact, be scum. So a suggestion: as early as possible in the day, someone does a dicetags post with (say) 9 sides; if it's 1-4 Yvonne and I both wait to the end to claim, if 5 or 6 I claim first/early, if 7 or 8 she does, if 9 we both do. By doing this in the morning if couldn't affect the nightchoices; if either she or I is scum then we're either crippled or high-risk, while if we're not the other scum still has the chance of being in significant danger.

Would like to note that Adele did propose a randomized claiming strategy but it greatly favored either her or Yvonne claiming at the end of the cycle.

How would that work?

A large part of your case against Yvonne involved her following Mathcam and such. Killing Mathcam reveals him as town and shows that Yvonne may have been buddying someone she knew would be a reliable townie. I know this is bordering on the too townie fallacy, just wanted the idea out there.
