The Peeps

Happy birthday you Saucy Casual Gentleman!

As far as I know, I've not sent you any invitations :p

The change report will be up at 4am on Monday. I'm looking forward to it too! I've got 1 player on 18dv and 5 on 17... none on 16 strangely enough but 5 more on 15

I do mention DV in the guide I put up for all new managers :p (I'm sure it also mentions the sponsor bonus too)

I was not aware that I had done that? lol

I don't think I was on the fence. I was quite adamant about following the plan all the way through that was my ploy for the game - to just keep to the plan for as long as it suited and luckily it suited all the way through!

Seeing as a 3-way split doesn't help anything and I do trust Sheikah... I will change vote: Rummy

Congratulations to Intergalactico, Haden and Madpool for winning their respective leagues!

I could be persuaded to vote Rummy if things go that way I guess. I'll see tomorrow.

Vote: Cube happy?

I would prefer to go for Cube. I understand why you'd want to go for Rummy as it does make sense that the mafia would want to go along with the plan thus far... but I think Cube is more likely to be mafia.

So what is the course of action? Jonnas obviously was biased in his choice and I don't think I believe Sheikah is mafia... as he said himself, why would anyone of the mafia suggest a plan which has a high chance of getting one of them lynched before the end of the game? Currently I'm most inclined to go for Cube or Jimbob.

That wasn't the whole reasoning and you should know that. It was that we can trust his target is impartial because he's not mafia. We can trust that he gave us a purely random target free from any agenda because he flipped town. [new post] awwwkwaaard

Jonnas says his choice is Sheikah. I don't think it was RNG.

Actually yes it does matter. If everyone picks randomly, we know our targets have come from a trustworthy source. We're not saying it guarantees catching a mafia every time because clearly it doesn't. What it does do is make sure that our next target is coming from somewhere devoid of outside influence. If you pick your target based on suspicions, you could be wrong. You can interpret things wrong and get a townie lynched because of your own bias which is worse than getting a townie lynched based on cold, random numbers. If you've based your vote on your own bias and get a townie lynched, that's on you. You can then dwell on what might have happened if you had picked randomly.

I feel like we don't need to base it on patterns because Jonnas is the next target anyway and he's the most suspicious in my eyes. If Shorty had RNG'd someone else I might've been more willing to step off the plan tbh... but Jonnas may not have tried to sway the voting at that point so maybe I would've still stuck with it, who can say :p Also you say as long as we keep the RNG rolling on a townie but there's no way to know until we've lynched them. Do you think it'll hit a townie every time? It's not in the mafia's hands, it's in luck's hands :p

I'm thinking the mafia don't want the lynches to be out of their control tbh. The way we're doing it has a good chance of getting one of them lynched before too late. Cube the only reason you have to be suspicious of myself, Sheikah and ReZourceman is that we're going along with this plan. I'm curious as to why you don't think Rummy is suspicious too as he's followed it along as much as anyone else. I'm suspicious of anyone who is trying to orchestrate a lynch given that we have no information to go on. I think the mafia are scared of this plan and are the ones trying to talk us out of it.

I have to disagree with online being considered a poor imitation of local play. Online is more convenient and gives you access to more players and better competition. You will never get 12 players on MarioKart locally. If they ever added proper voice chat into the mix it would be like your friends were there anyway.

I fully believe this strategy has outed us a mafia in Jonnas. I expect him to flip as mafia so Vote: Jonnas. He's the only one I'd say has acted suspiciously so far in this game!

I think Nintendo won't be happy with the game unless both teams tie every match. 50% coverage and exactly the same amount of 'kills'... "oh perfect balance!"

Oh no, too late!

No, Jay! Don't do it!

We won't have to worry about patches on Nintendo games because that would be them admitting the game isn't perfect.

Lots of heavy characters too, I keep getting knocked all over the course!

Mushrooms are so pointless when literally everyone gets them at the same time. The item system in this is my only complaint about this otherwise perfect game.
