Old West Mafia Day 1

Post by Don't Panic » Wed Sep 07, 2011 10:49 pm

Ok, we're started.

First off, I will be missing for large chunks of Friday due to travelling, will check in as much as I can.

Second off @@vote irre@@

Third off, I'm not seeing the rationale behind a mass claim this early, we will be handing scum our specials on a plate. FOS zigmen for that.

Fourth off(on a roll here), feck claiming seer day 1, not even he is that mad, although a bit odd.

Fifth off, I'll vote in the morning when there is more to go on, going to bed now.

The world is a thing of utter inordinate complexity and richness and strangeness that is absolutely awesome. I mean the idea that such complexity can arise not only out of such simplicity, but probably absolutely out of nothing, is the most fabulous extraordinary idea. And once you get some kind of inkling of how that might have happened, it's just wonderful. And . . . the opportunity to spend 70 or 80 years of your life in such a universe is time well spent as far as I am concerned.

Mass claim diverts from the need for scum hunting. This whole debate does that. However, I'll turn it around . Tentative call of zigmen and Feck as town. I don't think scum would be likely to do what they have done. Zigmen to call for a mass claim first post. Feck, to joke about being the seer. First nomination for scum I have is gonzo for joint on zigmen.

More thoughts on mass claim.

12 players, there's no chance that we'd all agree to a day 1 mass claim.
It places specials in a difficult position of not knowing if they are being lead to doom by scum.
Every vanilla that claims puts more focus on those that don't, even if they don;t agree with the concept.


However, the discussion itself is revealing. I hope.

I'm also interested that Jerome was sober enough to make a judgement about a zigmen post and vote, but not sober enough to string together a coherent thought.

I never usually like mass claims cause it seems to take the fun out of it. In this case we'd probably have 2-3 cleared players, and the rest vanilla town. 2 would be worst case scenario, and if the doctor protects properly, they might stay alive until day 3 or so. But then after that, just a bunch of vanilla town's to work with. Are we sure this game is only going to last several days?

Also, MZ - I'm pretty sure Jerome has a posting restriction

That's kinda the point. There's not much else to discuss in a 12 player game, so I figured I'd see where people sided on the issue.

And, mathematically, it works pretty well.

Maybe we can claim tomorrow, but I think we'll lose our advantage by then and it will become pointless.
