Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

It's entirely possible the mafia might have multiple/different kills, one unattached to their group kill.
@Kay: OS is right, your numbers suck because they assume they'll kill each other 100% of the time. This is Phalla, not an implementation of Life.
They might both be mafia, but they might both be villagers. The problem with your logic, as others have pointed out, is that there's nothing intrinsically tying the numbers to the two of them. The same math works for you and me.
Vote how you want, but we're getting a bit low in numbers. Kuhlmeye still has a lot of explaining to do, and the day is young. Why are you trying so hard to focus our attention elsewhere? He already distracted us once.
In fact, if he turns up evil, you're next on my list.

2) It's not two random players. It's two people that are constantly at each other's throats, they're both alive, and that is the interesting thing.
3) You're ignoring the combination of the information provided. On their own, each piece isn't that useful. Altogether, that is when it becomes interesting.
Doesn't matter though, I see everyone's made their decision. Therefore it's all of you that are terrible, and I'll laugh at the end of the game.

We know that the only people with access to kills that they could be are either the mafia, if they're the standard type, or the serial killer that likes shanking people with icicles. On either side, they'd want to avoid drawing attention to themselves, thus not throwing a kill at the other, or they're unable to throw a kill at each other.
Anyhow, kuhlmeye does have some explaining to do, but I wanted to bring this observation to light anyhow, and I have certainly done that.
Also, if I modified the numbers to take Darian's confirmed goodness into the equation, it just skews the percentages towards one or both of them being evil, making it less likely that they're both good. And this is only an issue because they are both alive - keep that bit in mind, please.
this is my biggest concern with your plan kay. i agree that the fact that both of them are still alive is interesting, as i know several players (myself included) who would take advantage of their public grudge and off one to cast suspicion on the other.
i just think you should have brought this up earlier... ie day 2. instead, you have forced us into a situation where we have to choose between:
a) a plan built on faux-math and interesting intuition which ties up both kills for the night
b) someone who has dodged the vote (both pretty stupid reasoned votes, but still, dodged none the less) twice.
c) voting off someone who epic revealed as a goddamn janitor. also, who has yet to contact the confirmed vig.
personally, i want to see the result of the kuhlmeye thing. this is mainly a placeholder at the moment. we'll see if his arguments sway me.
a final thought: if (by your own admission, a 40% possibility) neither OS or BL is evil, the best case scenario is that the cold kills only 1 person again. even in that scenario, it is likely 5v5 at that point.
if one of them is evil, it puts us at a presumed 6v4.
if in any case, the ice kills more than 1 person tonight, we are so very screwed.
i want to test out your theory, kay. but only as a last resort. as in, if darian clears kuhl and we have no other info to go on.
i would, but im heading out for much of the day. should be back long before vote close though.
not more suspicious then the janitor, mind you, but still.
Also, for those of you who are specials and just waking up: I'm the vig; get in touch, please.
Come talk about boardgames with us
I am so surprized.....
also so very awesome.

"What would MacReady do?"
He would drink some !Orange Soda mixed with whiskey.
More like he was bullshitting about the heatpacks?
// Steam, LoL, & WiiU: VWinds // Livestream //
And then he would shoot you both, or blow up the whole facility!
I mean, don't get me wrong, guys. I love you both, but the fact that you're both still alive is a bit... y'know?
I was not bullshitting about the heat packs. I can give one person a night a heat pack, and keep them from freezing to death. I gave them to myself the past 2 nights due to lack of better targets.

There were better targets. And conveniently this means that no one else can verify you since you're only giving heat packs to yourself.
Exactly. Kuhlmeye until someone presents a better target.
And I think Kay is reading wayyy to much into the sunkist B:L thing.
Thats cool. The death list will show Boris Grishenko, Janitor, and then you will have no way to prevent hypothermia.
PSN: the-K-flash
Boris...Grishenko? from Goldeneye?
SPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEC
Uhh, he was quite the invincible bad guy, !Kuhlm.

Actually, after a little googling, we've already lost a scientist from Resident Evil and LL Cool J. So Spec may have just seeded related stereotypes/archetypes/tropes/GET ME OUT OF HERE, I'M A CELEBRITIES.
I share body heat on a nightly basis. It's all the heat I need.
Besides, they were stolen from the supplies for everyone.

Exactly. Without someone to vouch for them it's highly likely he's telling a bad lie.

I concur.
This is totally not a fluff post to increase my count.
Steam: DigitalArcanist | XBoxLive: DigitalArcanist | PSN: DigitalArcanist | Backloggery: Houn
even after numerous theories were put forward that the hypothermia kills were based on post count. you didnt think to try and save a low poster. like ebfan.
in fact, saving ebfan would have been the perfect way to confirm yourself. you could have even pm'ed him to make sure he stayed at the bottom of post counts.
but no. you used it on yourself.
thanks for the help.

Neither is this. It's just me complaining about having to work again tonight.

Fluffing is hard work, eh?
