Plus I want Lily to stay here and mod more games and if she leaves, I won't be able to play with her or be in one of her games. :(

A man in a vampire costume (at least you hope it's a costume!) answers the door and places candy into each of your bags, after you say the customary phrase. You turn to walk away, and begin to discuss who should be sent home from this house....

do votes that take place before these statements count or are we supposed to wait to vote?

 

If you got the trigger then I think the trigger is that you were the first to post after we got our candy.

Nothing stopping you from playing with her elsewhere, Rand.

Or the first to quote.

I got the trigger.

 

It is a Magic 8 ball. I get to ask a yes or no question that pertains only to the beginning of the game. It also can't be player specific. Like, I can't ask if so and so is scum. Haven't thought of a great one yet. Maybe I can get some help.

 

I was going to ask if there was a 3rd party but just read the OP and see that there is one. Anyone with good ideas?

 

We can only use the initial conditions of the game but cannot ask a player specific question. So, can we ask a question about a group of players?

 

i.e. Are there more scum in the group of players originally listed as 1-10/11-20?

Brilliance, right here.

Also, don't forget that scum can trigger these too.

Tglems is the best suggestion so far.

 

MOD QUESTION.

 

Lily, do i have a time limit on this?

Just the day 2 deadline.

Hrmmmm... very interesting. I was initially thinking we could use this to help figure out which location might have a town-beneficial trigger, but then I saw this idea:

This seems pretty sound to me. You'd have to phrase it as a yes or no question, but that wouldn't be that difficult at all

where would that be? I haven't seen her on Myndjack and I can't go on JN because I am too young.

You could try Mafiascum if you're looking for new places to play mafia

Oh I missed the key word there which was "her"

 

Nevermind

OK, enough on that, lets get back to the game, any other ideas for the question?

ok, how is this for framing the question?

 

Does the group of players 1-10 have more scum than the group 11-20?

Do we even have 20 players? I think we have 17, so a better one would be "Does the group of players 1-9 have more scum than the remain people alive in group 10-20?"

The question only pertains to the start of the game. Not current facts. So I have to include all 20 players.

 

1. Darthe

2. Kathleen

3. Verbal

4. Random/TGlems

5. Basel Gill

6. Nolder

7. John Snow

8. Barm

9. Player

10. LedZepMan/Sakaea

11. Moon

12. Mish

13. Sakaea, gypsy, roleless townie, went home day 1

14. Rand

15. Lolguy/Peace

16. Christine, mad scientist, roleless townie, went home night 1

17. Tina

18. Lenlo/JLM

19. Despothera

20. Krak

Any reason moon isnt included? I thought her death was before?

Then make a specific list for a longer question.

 

"Does the group of 1-9 on the list comprise of more scum than that of the combined groups of 10-12, 14-15, and 17-20?"

I'm not grasping that Rand. Combining 3 groups is the same as saying 10-20

Any reason moon isnt included? I thought her death was before?

 

Moon's alive, mish is dead scum. Lily hasn't updated the OP yet.

Caught up on Spurs links, not much else to do and no one else is up so I'm gonna go ahead and knock out a reread, analyzing the votes yesterday considering we caught scum should be interesting

Right you know who I meant

where would that be? I haven't seen her on Myndjack and I can't go on JN because I am too young.

 

JN has an age limit?

I really think discussing the trigger is useless. Lily already said each house is different. We're wasting time over analyzing this. Find scum send them home that's the point of the game.

Well I sent in the following question: (Note, I finally understood Rands gist on the grouping's. He is omitting those we already know of and thus tightening our range.)

 

 

Does the group of 1-9 on the list comprise of more scum than that of the combined groups of 10-12, 14-15, and 17-20?
