Mafia 79 - "The Amish Mafia" GAME OVER... WHO WON?

[The Fonz]

Huh.
I was pretty damn sure the Amish were protestant.

They are, they're old order mennonites. But seventh-day adventists are Protestants too, and they have a saturday sabbath.

[Korts]

OT: Korts - the Jews regard Saturday as the Sabbath (actually sundown Friday to sundown Saturday according to Western reckoning), as do some small groups like the Seventh Day Adventists and Seventh Day Baptists. Catholics and most Protestants believe the Sabbath was changed to Sunday with the resurrection of Christ. Some Protestants believe Sabbath observance is no longer required. I am not aware of any non Judeo-Christian religions having a Sabbath concept. As for the Amish, I'm not certain, but I think they follow the Jewish Sabbath.

Cool.

[Evilgorrilaz]

Who has yet to confirm?

[Mellowed Man]

Marmalade and Psychatrog have yet to confirm.

[xyzzy]

Since everyone has picked up their PMs, and only 2 have yet to confirm, let's start this small mammal.

Amish Mafia votecount 1-1

[ValiantValant]

Hmm... don't see anything wrong with Random Voting, since in a game this large, it's unlikely that the Mafia will be able to turn one random vote into a quick lynch.

RANDOM VOTE: Korts

lets get this started!

[Erratus Apathos]

Vote: Rigel

for not confirming in thread. All true Amish know that you're supposed to confirm in thread. How can you claim to be truly Amish when you didn't confirm in thread?

Why bother telling us they're random votes? Surely the we can work that out, this being the very beginning of the game.

Also, interesting that two of the people who felt they needed to state that their votes were random are voting for the same person.

Vote: babygirl86

[Korts]

Hey, nice bandwagon on Korts you got here!

Vote: Korts

Also, what q21 said.

[babygirl86]

I state that my vote is random because even though it's pretty much a given that the first few pages have been random, there have been times I have simply voted without stating that it's a random vote and been called scummy for voting without a reason.

[q21]

Surely no one takes that kind of accusation seriously unless there is something additional to take into account. Two people whose votes are supposedly random hitting the same person out of a possible 20 doesn't seem very random to me. ValiantValant voted for Korts first and already has a vote against him so I voted for you.

[ZombieSlayer54]

Dood. Next time, edit the topic name to let us know the game has started. Please?

And, also, Q21, why are you jumping on people for stating that they are random voting? Very bad reason to be jumping on people, you know...

FOS on Q21.

And, along those lines of logic Q21, why not vote for ValiantValant, so as to get a Mafia lynched?

And believe me, I have seen a random votes tally have that happen before.

[nswhorse]

Korts: I'll second that motion!

vote: Korts

Jason

[nswhorse]

Q21: it is not impossible for two random votes to hit the same person. Assuming that someone won't random vote themselves, the odds of two people hitting the same target are 1 in 19. A sample size of 2 simply doesn't give enough information to decide on the randomness or otherwise.

I also find it unlikely the scum would be arrogant enough to team up to start a wagon this early on.

Jason

[Inquisitor JL]

Yeah, but a dice random vote conceals scummy actions in the real voting. You can get a suprising amount of infomation from random voting in some games.

Woot for being mafia scum.
