Oracle, for the most part. I do back-end database work for SOE. Would be fun to move over to the game side, though.

[Kashyyk]

ah, I was wondering cause I am at the important stage where what I do actually affects what job I might get.

[inaluct]

Hmm. I just realized that I haven't signed up for this. Sign me up.

[Mephansteras]

For databases...pick either Oracle or SQL Server if you have to pick. Ideally, you'd want at least some experience with both. For Oracle I also strongly recommend having Unix and shell scripting experience (or perl).

And...we're getting pretty far afield here. We should probably move this conversation over to the general chat area.

To bring this back on topic, here is a run with Karlito and inaluct added in!
There are 13 players, 3 of which are Doppelgangers and 2 are aliens (0.18)

Player	Race	Role	Goal
Alexhans	Human	Army Vet	Town Wins
Beacon80	Human	None	Town Wins
Cheeetar	Human	None	Town Wins
Karlito	Doppelganger	None	Town Loses
Kashyyk	Human	None	Town Wins
Katsuun	Human	None	Town Wins
NUKE9.13	Human	Agent	Town Wins
Org	Alien	None	Contact Agent
Pandarsenic	Alien	None	Exterminate all players
Zaithmeister	Human	None	Town Wins
chaoticjosh	Human	Doctor	Town Wins
inaluct	Doppelganger	None	Town Loses
webadict	Doppelganger	None	Town Loses

What does the "(0.18)" mean?

[Mephansteras]

Oh, it randomly determines the % of players that are going to be aliens. 0.0 up to 0.20 (20%).

[Alexhans]

did you realize i won always?   

Well... I thought about programming some kind of mafia bots to simulate the outcome of my Mafia Bajo Flores Mod but I had the problem of having to find out what were the player's real motives in doing what they do... To have a realistic AI you'd have to build some kind of neural network were the bots remembered a lot of things and reacted depending on their personality to the different things that happen in the game.

[Mephansteras]

Won always? How do you mean? If you're talking about the fact that you're at the top of the list it's just due to the ascii-sorting the hash does.

And, yeah, it'd be an interesting challenge. I've been slowly working on a learning AI (not NN based) that might be able to do it. But it's not quite that far along yet.

[Alexhans]

Won always? How do you mean?

When i was town... town won... when i was not... Town lost. 

[Karlito]

Won always? How do you mean?

When i was town... town won... when i was not... Town lost. 

That's not a result Alexhans, its the players goal.

[Alexhans]

oh... my bad... 

[Solifuge]

I was literally just thinking about starting a game of Mafia/Werewolf! Great minds, eh?

If you're still taking people, I would be quite down with this. (Also, I was considering coding a modified IRC Bot to run IRC games of Mafia/Werewolf too, with expanded roles)

[Mephansteras]

Sure, the more the merrier!

[Masami Phonix]

Hi, I'm Brook's brother Owen, and he invited me so I'm in too, this sounds like fun.

[Mephansteras]

Good to see you, Owen!
