Funny, I seem to have the opposite problem. Everything happens while I'm asleep.
Eevee, who is your top lynch priority?

Non-Mafia Game Threads / Gobblet
« on: December 08, 2012, 06:03:19 am »
Anyone care for a game of Gobblet with me?
I've only played the lite version, and I'd like to start off with that to get a feel of if/how it works over forum, and then maybe have a go at the full game.
Here's how the lite version works:
It's a Tic Tac Toe variant. 2 players, 3*3 board, each player has 6 pieces of 3 different sizes. On any given turn you take a piece of your colour, either from your supply or from the board (if it's visible) and place it on the board, either on an empty square or one which contains only smaller pieces, covering them up (a different square if taken from the board).
Winner is the first player to have 3 visible pieces in a row of their own colour, vertically, horizontally or diagonally.
The full game has a 4*4 board and each player has 12 pieces of 4 different sizes, and you need 4 in a row.
The first few turns might go something like this:
1 2 3
1 2 3
0 0 0
0 0 0
0 0 0
1 2 3

Anyone want to play? First in just start a game. You may choose your colour and turn order.

I was originally XXII, but as someone pointed out, in the index it was listed as XXI, so I changed it. SFS, would you like me to move back to XXII?

I'm here, but won't be for long. Before deadline, I'd like each of our suspects to provide both their most likely scum team and most likely scum member, with reasons and/or evidence to back it up.

« on: December 07, 2012, 05:29:10 pm »It's more than that one post for me, shraeye is devious enough to fake that but his unvote-shenanigans with me at the end of yesterday felt towny.. and also everything else he had said and done. Like I said, I'm more comfortable with that read than with any of my scum reads (again, super fortunate because it means I know the scum team is Munch-Ins-Galz*).
*Historically, people who have said they know who all the scum are have been right.. never. Still, being wrong about shraeye wouldnt automatically even lose the game for us so.
This is false, even if you are town. I'll assume for a moment that your town. IF you are wrong about shraeye then there is a town inside of Munch-Ins-Galz. For the sake of argument this is me because I know my alignment. IF you choose to lynch me today and are wrong about shraeye you just straight lose the game off of a bad read. I DON'T at all like people giving shraeye a free pass
I wouldn't call it giving him a free pass, I would call it a strong Town read. For me at least, I'm willing to be talked out of it, but mostly just by Robz.

Dominion General Discussion / Re: Now that Dark Ages has been out for a while...Thoughts on cards?
« on: December 07, 2012, 05:27:01 pm »The presence of Shelters brings Fairgrounds up to a potential 8 VP in an otherwise completely standard kingdom. (10 Kingdom cards, Cop/Sil/Gold, Est/Duc/Prov, 3 Shelters, and Curse = 20 different cards.) If the cards available can even remotely support that kind of "one of everything" approach, 8 VP for $6 is incredibly powerful and makes for some very fun games.My experience is that Fairgrounds (like menagerie) is way better with shelters, but 20 different cards is really hard to swing, even with knights. I'd guess that if you went for 20 cards and I went for 15, I'd get more FG than you. If you're playing with shelters and Black Market then maybe, but I still think you're better off aiming for 15.
I suppose the good thing about Fairgrounds is that you can often empty the pile and then focus on getting your unique card count up where you want it.

Isn't that how the game was initially invented? Maybe you're right though, that it's not interesting in this sort of setting.

Which of course means we have to pick the last Townie out of {Eevee, Galz, Insom, Munch}.
And also this.

I'm sorry, I missed the memo on shraeye being an Innocent Child. Why?
Wait, what? I'm playin g this game? Munch just came and said I wasn't posting. uhhhhhhhhh, isee. Ash just randomly threw me in, I was pretty sure I hadn't actually signed up, and now I see that I was right. I was worried for a moment that I signed up but completely forgot. Ok, I'm reading now, drinking corfee, coherence somes later.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but that's either the biggest obvTown I've ever seen, or an incredibly clever scum play.

« on: December 07, 2012, 05:13:43 pm »Jimmmm suspected Robz might be SK, and while it's a clever idea, there's less than a 50% chance that there even is a SK, so the odds that any one particular person is SK is like less than 4%, whereas the chance that someone is mafia is more like 20%. I know SK hunting is considered kind of a "classic" scumtell but maybe someone with more mafia experience than me can weigh in on whether that's actually valid.
I feel like this either misunderstands or misrepresents my post a little. I wasn't SK-hunting at all, I was putting across a theory which I thought was interesting, but probably not the case. I actually ended the post with "I actually think Robz is probably Town". Of course, having said that he's now my top scum-read.

Whomever my town partner is, along with our two IC's (I realize you can't trust me to be town, bit bear with the post):
DO NOT cast a vote until we're decided on the lynch. Period. Don't do it. Of your target is town, scum can coordinate a 10-second quick hammer to end the game. Remember, they have day-chat, so can coordinate precisely.
Or you could pull an Insom and throw the game by voting a "known" Town to "catch" the hammer.
And then one of our Townies could pull a me and join the scum-hammer.

Well, for the simplest version, from a player's point of view they're basically just two normal games, except the roles have been chosen by the mods, and you know, maybe you can deduce something from that.

I wouldn't say the effect anti-synergize. I mean, obviously you have to choose one or the other at any given time, but in a slim deck with lots of Gold, +buys are great. I've only played one game with them both, but I thought Chapel/MS was a great opening.
