    If you're doing anything but random guessing for Day 1 or 2 you're doing this wrong. I was originally going to call this "Fun-sized" edition but I didn't know if there were internationals who might not get the joke.

    I would be in, but I've got my driving test tomorrow and I'm going on holiday the day after that. When would it start?

    You said considering. I took it to mean you weren't sure. I'll add you to the list then.

    Already full Citrus. Once you take obs, you can't join the fun. I'm leaving this open for the rest of today. At 1am EST on Friday Aug 1st I'm closing sign ups.

    But you understand that the setup you are planning on doing is defautly scum-sided? There has been research (aka many games played) of similar stances (2v11, 3v10 white-flag, ect) and for towns best chance to win is to actually random lynch is what im saying.

    its is agrubly wrong in terms of playing persay (one could argue random lynching is also a legit thing), but in terms of winning, its is towns best idea to do so.

    Behavioral lynch will always be more accurate than purely random.

    theoretical standpoint town will lose more often then not

    the bolded+underlined explains also why it can easily be scum sided (or theoretically town sided). it comes down to skill set.

    Thats why its is argubly more optimal to just random lynch and hope for the best then to try to scum hunt or do behavioral analysis. It is easily swayed by skills, time (town apaty), manipulation, ect.

    you could also set up a situation where towns are more behaviorally bad vs scum. If scum can look town naturally and the town looks naturally scummy, can it be relied apoun?

    Because you need 2 reserves, I'll be your second reserve.

    Thanks PoD. Regular Sign-ups closed at 1 or about 6 hours ago for those wondering. Reserves are always open.

    Role PMs will go out in about an hour. After that, game will begin at this time.

    Lies. The best way to play mafia is for everyone to pick a number. Mod RNG's to see who wins.
