I could eliminate any knowledge of me being SK by having my sister do the random.org target and pm and play as if I were town.

Why would I want to play a game where I can win 100% with a strategy that players are too obstinate to use, or ~100% lose because I have no information whatsoever to base my lynches on?

See Quantum Werewolf for an experiment very similar to this. However, the creator realized the importance of a cop if there are no hints about the scum.

Of the two options, I would pick the second. Also, ~100% in this case is around 87%.

It's a prisoner's dilemma. If the rest of the town plays according to your strategy, I can increase my personal winning odds by lying to town in order to determine if I am the serial killer. If the rest of town lies, I have no interest in playing along as that would put me in a position of disadvantage.

So there you have it. And sign up already.


The thing is the order has to be decided day 1 before you know whether or not you are SK.

Now the second option. Let's all just random.org our lynches everyday and random target at night. I can do that in R without needing to play mafia.

You can do that, but in R your town will automatically follow you. If everyone put their votes in random.org we would be unlikely to lynch at all. Fortunately, minority also means a lynch in this setup... But you know very well that R is not the same as blind mafia. All votes are weighted and there will be a party actively sabotaging town.

You know why we disagree? You disregard the possibility that you are an SK entirely.

I don't discount it entirely. I just think a mountainous setup with 2 SKs is an exercise in randomly lynching.

This world overflows with meaningless interaction, even with only the tips of your fingers there are more ways than can be counted; texting, tweeting, acupressure massaging, forum gaming, etc.

This town however, for good or bad, has had a break in their harmony; death touches everything a couple of people do, at first it was passed off as harmless accidents, but today people decided to start paying attention.

Too bad they decided to do so far too late for hundreds of their town's population...

There are fourteen alive, it takes 8 to lynch, deadline is in approximately 72 hours.

Vote aage for contributing only with noice.

So, what about the idea of Thechuck51 in targeting ourselves? That would be a crack in the system....or we better play within the obvious patterns from the thread?
