    Mamimi. Try reading the comic adaptation, there's a lot more sense to be made there even if it is a hair trippier in some aspects.

    As Sfor-chan said, if your side wins you win. It's not a matter of personally doing everything or even anything but laying out a foundation on which any player can pick it up and win. Like a recipe for a dish that anyone who can read it can cook. I want to win because I want to beat the game, just as there's white and black in chess there's mafia and town in this game and you should be able to win from either side with a proper understanding of the game.

    You can do that, but you're not making it easier for me.

    I look at the game differently. I said it before, talk is cheap, what I meant by that is I'm ignoring the content of people's posts as far as voting is concerned because it doesn't matter. Certain moves must be made by each side to win and so each side can be distilled to an algorithm or model. Since this is possible, I want to logically and mathematically solve the game through thorough heuristic analysis and knowing I'll win rather than stumbling through it by oversimplified holistic rationalization and hoping I'll win. If I want to talk to people, I can go out and talk to people. For me, competence is the enjoyment I derive from a game not socializing. I play to win and I want to win in a way that I can repeat every time. I want to break the game so that there's no point in playing it to know I'd win. I'm pretty far off from that and I don't think I'll reach it within this game, but that's the end goal.

    tl;dr It's more fun if it's math.

    Gainax, I mean, Trigger likes to reference outside material. A lot. Marcellus Wallace was a character in the American film Pulp Fiction and appeared on the way to school in Episode 4 alongside John Travolta's character, Vincent Vega. So it's cultural, but not all Japanese culture.

    Honnouji Academy is named after a temple in Japan. At the real life Honnouji, a man named Akechi killed a man named Nobunaga. Akechi was one of Nobunaga's generals previously but betrayed him when he was about to consolidate his power over Japan during the feudal times. That's the short version.

    Well, http://i.imgur.com/4h3a83w.jpg

    It's more interesting when you have something to look forward to.

    Kill la Kill requires some background knowledge to predict/understand in my opinion.

    More relevant questions: Do you know what Honnouji Academy is named after? Did you see the death flag in episode 7?

    There are two members that have voted for two confirmed townsfolk. Mystic and Cat~ with 6 and 31 posts respectively. Both are alive. There are 10 members that have voted for one confirmed townsfolk. Cstar(39 posts), hyuge-of-the-twilight(26 posts), skull joke(34 posts), tale_wind(27 posts), Bite the Dust(11 posts), Digital Atlas(28 posts), Judge Sunrose(3 posts), Lana del Jayn(3 posts), Princess<3(3 posts), TwilightBlader(4 posts). Only TwilightBlader has been killed in this group. There are nine members who have not voted for a confirmed townsfolk at all. Jiku Neon(5 posts), Marushi(9 posts), burnitup(11 posts), Krowley(5 posts), Senpai(7 posts), Spike(5 posts), basilisa(2 posts), beau(2 posts), House(0 posts). Krowley, Senpai and House are dead from this group and basilisa has retired.

    Now, if you don't see a very strong trend it's because there isn't one. Post count doesn't seem to be very heavily tied with how many townsfolk you've killed. So while it is bad to have low activity as far as your survival chances, it doesn't seem to be indicative of mafia like behavior.

    Update: Looking back at the numbers I've come up with a few benchmarks for determining show mafia is, because I realize that the raw numbers don't make any sense at all. So, I'm aware that it's a flawed system, duh, it's the first build. I'll be rebalancing it as I go. Anyhow, a negative score automatically confirms townie status in my opinion because it means you have killed more mafia than townsfolk. A score of zero means the user isn't a threat one way or the other because they either do nothing or net nothing. Now positive scores need to be looked at in relation to how many days have past. Now, the scale is clearly incomplete because we have yet to kill a mafia and only have 3 days worth of votes but think about it, the max score right now is 7 while the max possible score is 9. A score of 9 after 3 days would mean killing one townie per day. However a score of 9 after 6 days means you could have done tons of things so think of it in context. So what confirms mafia status? Well, nothing so far. It's totally possible for a townie to have a high mafia score early on because the odds are so out of their favor. The reason why I released the numbers and even the mafia score wasn't to push people in any one direction, it was to see what you thought of it so far and crowdsource improvements to the system. No one has really helped me with that so far. Regardless, I'm still going to start voting by the numbers from today, it just might not necessarily be based on the mafia point system yet.

    That's patently untrue. It doesn't take posts into account at all.

    Talk is cheap. You can say whatever you want and it doesn't mean a thing. Some of you tell others to defend themselves. Some of you try to justify yourselves to others. The only facts here, the only truth and fact you can find is in numbers. No matter what anyone says at the end of the day they are still trying to get their side to win and they can only do that with votes. Over the last three days I've counted every post, tallied every vote and studied them for patterns. So far this is what I've found. From this ever growing store of knowledge I will place my votes. I encourage everyone else to at least think about the data I've collected before voting.

    There are six members with above 20 posts. There are 13 members with below 10 post. There are two between 10 and 20 post. Everyone who was killed was from the 13. Both the town and mafia are responsible. Everyone who has been killed has been town aligned. No special positions have been compromised. This means that there are 16 people left in play since one person dropped out and was replaced. This means that a random guess has a 5/16 chance of being mafia; almost one in three. It means a random guess has a 2/16 chance or 1/8 chance of getting a special townie. So, odds are actually mildly improving for the town if you think about it that way. But random isn't ideal. Targeting it a little is better. So I came up with a scoring system to see how against the town a member has voted.

    The system follows:
    +3 mafia points for voting for a member confirmed to be town
    +2 mafia points for unvoting for a member confirmed to be mafia
    +1 mafia points for voting for a member not confirmed to be mafia, includes No Lynch votes
    -3 mafia points for voting for a member confirmed to be mafia

    All confirmations are from the death cards and all votes are from day of death so the first rule reads you contributed to killing a town member and the last reads you contributed to killing a mafia member. The second rule means you tried to avoid voting for a mafia member the day they were killed and the third reads you voted for someone who wasn't killed at all. Obviously, fewer actions prove innocence and more serve as guilt indicators but is the amount that matters in the end. If we arrange members by mafia score we get the following:

    Members by Mafia Points
    Cat~: 7
    Mystic: 7
    Cstar: 5
    hyuge-of-the-twilight: 5
    skull joke: 5
    tale_wind: 5
    Bite the Dust: 4
    Digital Atlas: 4
    Judge Sunrose: 4
    Lana del Jayn: 4
    Jiku Neon: 3
    Marushi: 3
    Princess<3: 3
    TwilightBlader: 3
    burnitup: 2
    Krowley: 2
    Senpai: 1
    Spike: 2
    basilisa: 1
    Beau: 0
    House: 0

    Key note: members with the strike tags are no longer playing for whatever reason.

    Final note, if there is anything flawed with the data or the totals for anything or even any way to improve the mafia score methodology I want you to tell me so I can update the numbers to reflect the truth. I appreciate everything.
