Aha! Trevor the Alchemist arrives.
Go on, Trevor, make us some gold.
Ha! Vain you old dog! I was keeping one eye open on that role to see if I'd get it, and you've only gone and given it to me!
Suirantes said:You are my rival therefore you shall die.
Thank you master for voting for my rival
So you're saying that you're Mitt Romney?
So he is your rival then? Logically both you and him should be villagers then (or unattached cultists/sorcerers). Thanks.
God marty, you always do this.
But you lie. I know, because I also have this trait, and giving it to both of us would be severely overpowered
You rang?OH THE HUGE MANATEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

St. Peters Port was a disaster for the Empire! We have a survivor among us. Only Cultists Survived. Thus We should all
VOTE Najs
Or packmates with one hell of a plan to make themselves look good
Ah yes, I recognise your face. I fought with one of your relatives in St Peters Port a few years ago. He was a fine soldier, truly exemplary for the Guard up until the moment he betrayed us all to the forces of Chaos. I shed his traitorous blood myself in the heat of melee combat.
I doubt it. You see, back on Saumarez I came closer to the agents of Chaos than any man before me and lived. It was a tragic time, that. Our forces fell one by one to Chaos infiltrator and even though I purged dozens of them with my own hands we failed to root them all out. And then the invasion came and all was lost.
I still have nightmares from that day. I see the faces of my fellow men, twisting in agony as they succumbed to the Warp. I was the sole survivor that day, fortunate enough to retreat in an escape shuttle after activating several explosive devices throughout the city. They won the battle, but I ensured nothing was left to capture...
Take this setup one step further. One single wolf in a group of 30. What reason does the wolf have left to behave differently from a villager? None. And if there's no scanning in the game, what does the village have to go on? All the things you mentioned can be nullified by some simple discipline. 100% random hunts, play like a villager. A single wolf has no good reason to stand out.
Except he said a few wolves... not a single wolf...
pever also plays a system where the GM write-ups can be analysed for information. Nothing so obvious as those sesame seeds that led us to kill esemesas though...

There is scanning, there are other things. You talk enough, discuss enough, and eventually the wolves stand out. In fact, there was a run of about 3-4 games where the mafia got smashed by...
Perfect Information Syndrome: When a mafioso accidentally reveals he knows more than the average uninformed townie really should, either through directly declaring such information while talking about something else, or through their voting patterns. Example:
(And foundation of another concept, Mafia ESP) Star Wars: Return of the Sith hosted by Sigurd, Subotan's voting pattern indicated that he knew who would be alive and who would be murdered by the end of the game, because his votes nicely complemented his murders, and he rarely ended up voting for people who ended up surviving to near the endgame. [There are better and less complicated examples of this... such as accidentally blurting out knowledge of some hidden or in-depth quirk about the game that a common townie shouldn't know]
You guys seem to rely on more of a system of:
Vote Indexing: Method invented by Kommodus in Mafia II to find the mafia. Involved a spreadsheet keeping track of how often a certain person had voted for an innocent. Rendered largely null and void in following games since the Mafia are not so foolish as to be caught by it (Kommodus himself was a mafioso in Mafia III and deliberatly fooled it).
Yup, nothing at all.
Its all moot though, I'm just going to be killed in this game for going off topic now.

I assume you have the same RP trait as me, however, I choose not to use it in my posts as I did not play in that god-forsaken game.

Vote Vainglory, say no to crappy force-fed RP.
Both exist, but the latter isn't used as you describe. The first is usually called Crovax here, although other sites use nomenclature such as scumslip. As for the second, we analyse every vote (or strive to), and it's context, rather than make it statistical. Of course, the bigger the game, the harder it is to do this reliably.
It can take days before something constructive comes out of it. And if your village contains a bunch of easy scapegoats (see: The previous big game ) then there's just nothing you can do ..
