China, France, and Germany have different political systems and beliefs.

In China, the government is led by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), which advocates for socialism with Chinese characteristics. The CCP is a single-party system, meaning that only one political party is allowed to hold power. The Chinese government exercises strict control over the media, the internet, and public opinion, and there are limited freedoms of speech, assembly, and religion. The CCP also emphasizes economic development and growth, which has led to China becoming the world's second-largest economy.

In France, the political system is a semi-presidential representative democratic republic. The French government is led by the President, who is elected for a five-year term, and the Prime Minister, who is appointed by the President. France has a multi-party system, with parties from both the left and the right. French politics is characterized by a strong tradition of secularism and a commitment to civil liberties, such as freedom of speech, religion, and assembly.

In Germany, the political system is a federal parliamentary republic. The German government is led by the Chancellor, who is elected by the Bundestag (the federal parliament), and the President, who is the head of state. Germany has a multi-party system, with parties from the left, center, and right. Germany is known for its strong social welfare system and a commitment to environmental protection. The country also places a strong emphasis on cultural and historical preservation.

In conclusion, China, France, and Germany have different political systems and beliefs. China is a single-party system that emphasizes economic growth, France is a semi-presidential representative democratic republic that values civil liberties, and Germany is a federal parliamentary republic that places a strong emphasis on social welfare and cultural preservation.

Fun reread, and I mean that, only three pages :cloud9:

The few impressions I had last night didn't change from rereading. The first thing that stuck out to me was Omega opening with how she didn't understand the mech, had no time. More posts about being busy, about mechanics, even after Creature made a post explaining them pretty clearly. Alot of OT, followed by "I think Lucy could be evil" (I don't disagree there). A lot more OT, some posts about how awesome her Mafia game is. Reminders about how busy she is.

I have no experience of Omega; but in general this all strikes me as baddie post padding. Lots of kinda on topic, but also lots of kinda not.

You wanted drama, so you are no better than Lucy
Not really much on topic outside of her Lucy suspish. There is this post ^^, which I don't understand what is being said here. Referencing sigs desire to know why Omega got banned from MU? Not sure. Could be on topic. I lean bad here.

Re Lucy, my experience of her is that early game, she banters, makes tons of OT posts; indeed she opened this one by asking if there was a post cap. This is NAI for her, imo. However, I had the same reaction as Omega to the way Lucy reacted to Neons vote; she sounded a bit petulant, which is not a thing I associate with town Lucy. Subsequent posts, she also sounds a bit pissy rather than 'pissed', which would be more the reaction I'd expect from a town Lucy.

This could be a distancing situation with Lucy/Omega. One thing I did take away, I think this unpairs Lucy and Neon. Lucy seemed really unhappy about Neons vote, and I think if they had a chatroom, she would have brought it there.
Creature wrote: Tue Mar 14, 2023 9:32 pm I bet no one read Scotty's post.
I did. I appreciate mechanics discussion, it's a big part of why i joined this game specifically.

The other thing I noticed before I crashed on the couch last night was srceenplays Creature vote.

The first thing I did when I opened the thread this AM was look to see if Creature did come back. So this caught my attention because I wasn't sure if this was Day One Jokey voting or what. I played the GOC with Creature, but we never really interacted at all, it was such a big thread, and I've never seen srceenplay before, so I don't know if this is an existing dynamic.

@lucy to answer your plea honestly, the tl;dr of my mech post is this:

If you look like you’re about to be chopped, it’s best to give away your breath early in the game. If multiple town have been mischopped already, unless someone claims to have ~3 breaths and seems townread, I would just let your breath die with you.

Maybe.

Okay, mech time. We should be able to gain a strong advantage if we do the following:

1. Choose 3 people, top 3 towns, need to so this soonish.

2. Sort the remaining 11 players into groups of 3,4,4 and assign each group to a top town.

3. funnel all breaths into those top town.

4. on subsequent days, townies who have breaths may choose to give them all to someone else without disclosing who (to make it harder for mafia)

This does a few things:

1. very likely that at least one town will get the 1st power. This will out people who did not do the thing. 3p did not do the thing, and if mafia choose not to, they'd also be outed.

2. This should maximize our ability to use doc shots.

3. sure, it could go to mafia, but if there are multiple janitors, that'd be kind of outing.

You know how some people are really good at interviewing for a prospective job only to be a subpar worker once hired? I feel similarly like some people can appear top town on D1 only to get bad breath on D2, if you get my drift.

Most of your mech talk was just reciting things from the setup. Your only plan that I saw was "give breaths if you're going to die... unless we're doing bad" which I think is better than no plan, but not better than my plan. If we don't actively create doc shots, I don't see how we're going to get doc shots. If we don't get doc shots, then meh. Mafia's guaranteed almost assuredly one janitor, so I'm not going to worry too much about giving them a second one, especially since that SHOULD be trackable.

Top town thing - meh. Who cares. If we really miss on all 3 "top town", then we kinda deserve to lose. If we give to one scum by accident because we're shooting for "top town", whatever, we lose one doc, but that still gives us two docs. Also pushing people to list their top 3 towns is pro-town.

1. Choose 3 people, top 3 towns, need to so this soonish.

2. Sort the remaining 11 players into groups of 3,4,4 and assign each group to a top town.

3. funnel all breaths into those top town.

4. on subsequent days, townies who have breaths may choose to give them all to someone else without disclosing who (to make it harder for mafia)

This does a few things:

1. very likely that at least one town will get the 1st power. This will out people who did not do the thing. 3p did not do the thing, and if mafia choose not to, they'd also be outed.

2. This should maximize our ability to use doc shots.

3. sure, it could go to mafia, but if there are multiple janitors, that'd be kind of outing.
1. Did you by chance read my mech post?

2. Your math is off- there’s only 13 players, but ok.

3. K

4. sure, though I still think claiming having breaths later creates yummy WIFOM.

I don’t mind this as a base strategy.
However, utilizing this philosophy in *finding* a top town today is dangerous. I almost would rather give randomly.

You know how some people are really good at interviewing for a prospective job only to be a subpar worker once hired? I feel similarly like some people can appear top town on D1 only to get bad breath on D2, if you get my drift.
Most of your mech talk was just reciting things from the setup. Your only plan that I saw was "give breaths if you're going to die... unless we're doing bad" which I think is better than no plan, but not better than my plan. If we don't actively create doc shots, I don't see how we're going to get doc shots. If we don't get doc shots, then meh. Mafia's guaranteed almost assuredly one janitor, so I'm not going to worry too much about giving them a second one, especially since that SHOULD be trackable.

Top town thing - meh. Who cares. If we really miss on all 3 "top town", then we kinda deserve to lose. If we give to one scum by accident because we're shooting for "top town", whatever, we lose one doc, but that still gives us two docs. Also pushing people to list their top 3 towns is pro-town. Gives good AI content. Don't think randomly choosing gives us any benefit that isn't outweighed by this.
I think our conclusions are similar tho

Doc shots are the best thing town has- getting to 6 breaths is a fools errand I think, but if you get there…cool.

The biggest thing mafia has going for them if they have breaths is to be able to janitor kills, which as I’ve talked about is potentially outing for mafia.

So if mafia happen to get breaths, it’s not so much a positive for mafia than it is a negative for town.

So I dunno- giving breaths probably is something we shouldn’t be *too* afraid to do if you have one to give.

Aren't there only 13 players in total? If we choose three of them, then we'll have to split the 10 remaining players into groups of 4, 3, and 3. Or perhaps we should split them into groups of 4, 4, and 2.
