JanusTwoFace: You're being awfully chatty for the RVS. Really, really chatty. What's going on? You're not Cabal trying to make yourself look good by trying to make the RVS somehow helpful, are you?
I was sleep deprived and trying to get people to be active (perhaps a little over hard).
I thought it would be fun to see two Fire Mages duke it out, assuming they choose fire as their element. I thought they would because of their names. Do you get my reasoning now?
I was mainly attacking you on a whim, there's not much to go on day 1. That being said, I'm still going to keep the 'omission' in mind.
Well, I don't think I would have too much of an advantage, Their stat boosts seem to give them a pretty large advantage to start with,.
I'm going to stick OrgAnd ExKirby out there, since Org always lurks a ton, and ExKirby is just ExKirby...
The stat boost for the Cabal has been reduced to only +1 each IIRC and health has been doubled. I haven't run any test battles yet (I hope to tomorrow) but I don't think that the Cabal will have nearly as crazy an advantage as before.
Also,
FoS for going for an 'easy' set of targets. I'm not saying that I would mind sending Org in for lurking (and he's been Cabal both games, not that that means anything) and ExKirby always seems to want in the circle, but this does look somewhat like a Cabal mage relying on public opinion to do his work and send two Tower mages into the ring.
"If anyone can tell me why I wouldn't want to see Org and ExKirby in the ring, I should like to know."
Pretty much ditto the same thing I just said to MagmaDeath.
FoS you as well.
Votecount before I say anything else!
You don't need a vote count to interact with people. You really don't...
Oh, well if that's the case, I would throw the other guy in the ring. It's simple logic; the survivor of the fight will not have full health at the end, and it increases my chances of winning if he fights before I do.
Unless the rules have changed, mages regain full health between duals. So it does acutally increase your chance of being declared the High Mage if you stay out of it, but not the way you think.
Also, there's a problem with your analysis. Assume that you and the other town mage both follow your advice. Then there's two votes on the Cabal mage and one on each of you. The Cabal mage votes both of you and there's a 33% chance the two Tower mages fight to the death and the Cabal mage has a 50/50 chance of killing the winner by incapacitation. Hopefully, the Tower mages could come to an agreement to avoid this situation, but still. It's something to keep in mind.
Org is his usual lurker self, (admittedly I'm a lurker, but at least I try to be active) and ExKirby is just being weird in my opinion, anyway ExKirby, what makes you think that you will be able to survive enough duels if you start fighting at the beginning? o.O
Another person voting on Org and ExKirby.
FoS again. Also, I think you are implying that fighting a second dual is harder than fighting one. Granted, you have a better chance of losing by fighting more than one, but it's not because you are weaker after fighting a dual.
Kashyyk and Pandar are voting for the same people.
As are Frelock and MagmaDeath. Why are you singling out Kashyyk and Pandarsenic?
To be honest, I missed Frelock as well.
I shall place my two vote on Org and ExKirby, you cannot fight tradition.
Dude. You're the 5th person to vote Org and ExKirby. If that's not a bandwaggon by this point, I don't know what is.
I know. But to me I feel like I post more content. I'm most probably biased however, so we might need someone esle to comment on that.
Not really,
@Rick: ? No. FOS. because he didnt have a great reason.
"If anyone can tell me why I wouldn't want to see Org and ExKirby in the ring, I should like to know."
Still waiting.
As of this post, you've posted 5 times. Of those, 3 were completely useless and 2 were sort of maybe kind of useful. Post longer, more in depth posts please.
1: Is it better for the town to leave matches between pairs of suspected scum evenly balanced in terms of assists; Please explain your answer.
2: If a player is unsuspected for being scum, and is in with someone who is suspected for being scum, how should you help; Please explain your answer.
3: What implications do turn 1 to 2 victories have on the victor; If they used their opponent's element? If they used a neutral element? If they used the opposite element?
4: What implications does a particularly long or drawn out fight imply for the victor; If they used their opponent's element? If they used a neutral element? If they used the opposite element?
5: Do your homework; If you check, for this game health was increased, which should cause many battles to be slightly more drawn out. For that matter, one other thing changed notably that should be factored in, what is this?
1: Evenly balanced. Easier to statistically analyze.
2: I would assist the less scummy one unless the difference isn't that much. Duals are our lynches, if we don't think someone should be lynched, we should think twice before putting them in the ring.
3: I don't think that this will happen as much this time around with the boosted health and lowered bonuses.
4: Ditto #3.
5: Cabal bonus is now only +1, Archmage is only +2, Light is a perfect balance for Dark. I think that's the gist of it.
Agree with Pandar. It's good that you are asking questions, but the answers are pretty obvious. Except for maybe the first two questions. Also, IMO, directed questions are better because then its harder for lurkers to just ignore them.
