I have questions regarding the voting rules and particularly this:
In case of a tie, the day will last until the tie is broken. If the tie lasts for more than 24 hours, one of tied players will get random lynched by the host.
So ... How long is a day?
I take it is 24 hours... If there is a tie (like now) when do you begin counting the 24 hours from that tie?
And how random is the lynch... Let's say someone has voted for a mafioso, would the chance of lynching this mafioso be equal to the other players in that tie?

* Each phase will last for 24 hours, unless the host extends it. If I extend a phase, I will publicly announce this in the thread.
* If there is a tie
at the end of a day phase, that phase will be extended until the tie is broken. If there is still a tie after 24 hours into this extended day phase, the host will
randomly lynch one of the tied players.
And that is "randomly" as in
completely random

Get sober m8, he's new to mafia, he doesn't even know what mafia tactics are.
I'm quite suspicious of CA, Beefy, Ichigo and Roadkill, who think they can vote newcomers to the game without a good reason.
Would you be voting, say, Kommo like this you would have already been
FoS'ed.

Ok...
This is your call Andres, but I think that if there was a tie at the end of the day, the random lynch should happen without extension.
Oh... the drama. This could be the solution to draw out the lurkers. Just think of the paranoia it would create
I agree with Sigurd actually.
Partly as well because I don't like extending fases, it draws people (those that lose interest quickly) away from the game, hence why I had such a strict 24 hour rule.
Ok, I'm going to do something to break the tie. Vote for the Australian.
Unvote: Abstain
Vote: CountArach

Well, you can always break the tie yourself by unvoting/voting...

I am new to the online game and the gameroom, but not new to the game of mafia.
Vote:RoadKill...
I know you made your vote in jest.. and ... touché
You wasted a lot of time with those PM's. If you're going to post it in the thread then seems pointless.
@Stig: It's one vote shouldn't freak out.

Yes.. but that was not the point. Sometimes the town could use it as a tool to force the hand of the reluctant or the players having a higher stake in the game than that of townie.
A townie should never be afraid of being lynched... the pro town roles and the mafia would be.
Let's say the town put a tie on all the lurkers... would that draw them out? At least the mafioso hiding amongst them would start sweating.

It serves as a reminder for those people who don't regularly check the thread...

2 mafia and 39 players... It's already hard enough for the mafia, don't you think?
FactionHeir 10:52 09-07-2007
Sounds like a lot of us townies will get lynched by their fellows before a mafia player can get lynched... a 5% chance to get a mafia on day 1 actually.
Twilightblade 10:55 09-07-2007
Hey Zorg and Amazing Me
Took you guys a while to get here
Vote:Abstain I dont like day 1 lynches
Edit: Unless theres a night preceding it that is
Beefy187 11:03 09-07-2007
Nobody... Well at least im not looking for someone to lynch. If I am I wouldve stayed with Pever
FactionHeir 11:06 09-07-2007
Beefy: Still you voted me? Contradiction immplies you might be Mafia!
Twillight: Well, actually this is the day after night 1 where an unknown was killed according to the first post. So tonight would be night 2 i think.

Nope..

I now have an eye on Twilightblade.
Changing from your normal play style = not normal.
Vote: TB
FactionHeir 11:23 09-07-2007
You only have 1 vote. You'd need to unvote Husar first.
Beefy187 11:34 09-07-2007
Factionheir: The only reason i voted for you is because i voted for pever then you voted for him as well. I changed your vote to you for trying to actually kill pever, stealing my love (vote) for pever, plus randomly calling me suspecious.
pevergreen 11:41 09-07-2007
Unvote: Husar, Vote: TB
FactionHeir 11:42 09-07-2007
So no one is allowed to vote pever just because you voted him? What kind of reasoning is that?
If you don't want him killed, don't vote him or better, abstain. Voting someone who votes the same person as you is...weird.
Besides, saying that you don't want anyone killed and voting someone does make you suspicious. It certainly is not random.
Some people think that placing just a second vote on some is bandwagoning

All
townies got a role PM - only a mafia would not know that
@enoch - TWC?
Well, here now, sorry if I'm a tad late.
Seems I'm new and already getting votes against me lol! Seeing as we have nothing to go on I WOULD just revenge attack Ichigo, but the temptation of voting for Beefy just for the sake of voting for Beefy is too much (he convinced me to join the forum... so I may as well pay him back

.
Vote: Beefy
Well, its my first mafia on these forums hopefully it will be a good one.
Twilightblade 13:08 09-07-2007
so I'm not allowed to abstain am I pever?
Unvote Vote:Pevergreen
pevergreen 13:15 09-07-2007
I would like to say that Zorg, while new here, understands the logic of mafia.
Revenge vote from TB. Nice, scum.
