Discussion Mafia Game "Discussion" Thread v.5

[Imperium]

It's not discussing the game and actually I think a valid topic. Her point is that a vote is concrete information that is submitted to the game and once given should be impervious to edits. It is something that shouldnt be changed without there being a record of the change.

I think that it should be discussed by everyone to be honest.

...the fuck

Well, I'm not disagreeing that it should be counted. But I don't know what is gleaned from him having voting for Nana and then changing to KD once he saw he was online. He still hadn't voted yet and it has no ramification in the remaining phases.

I rest my case.
You guys don't care about what's said, but who says it, and that's not only about the game.
If anyone thinks it's worth it to discuss it, feel free. I shared my opinion and pointed to everything I believe I'd have to point.

You honestly think I am biased against you?

Uh, no. But sorry you feel that way...

I don't think it's personal towards me, LOL
But you are biased.
Don't worry, we all are. Some of us just don't mind or don't notice that we make this evident sometimes.

 

[Imperium]

We should have a longer nightphase.

 

[digitaldude]

9 hours left btw.

 

[xi0]

What the fuck Nana...

 

[Nuno]

The wait time is so unbearable...

 

[xi0]

I don't understand the bias thing really. If the solution isn't host killing him then what should have been done to not be biased?

 

[digitaldude]

This all depends on the players, it can be 12 hours or 20 minutes.

Nothing.

 

[xi0]

Nothing.

...sigh

 

[Evil3ye]

No, LOL.
I never said that >.>
But for the future, hosts could ask people to keep the important info people edits for whatever reason, and count things or do whatever else based on those infos, unless people say it was a mistake or something like Imp said and justifies it.



^there, above

I've seen during some discussions, between Hakuteiken and Org for instance, that one posted something, then the other replied, and the othe first one edited his stuff and partly answered the reply, then the other was forced to edit as well.

This is bullshit, and should be prevented.

I see why you have a problem with it, Nana, but at the same time it's rather harsh to force someone to not quickly edit their vote. It all depends on the circumstance, and one can always blame a beneficial circumstance e.g. "I wrote the wrong name!" (Imp's example).

I don't think there can be any rules set in stone for the issue. It all depends on the circumstance, and if no one were browsing the thread and you accidentally wrote the wrong name, I seriously doubt you wouldn't quickly change it (hmm?). If it's picked up, and worthy of discussion/pointing out, sure, why not discuss it. Go nuts on him during the day phase. But in this case it was a pretty clear case of the vote being seen as useless exactly when he posted. I understand why he edited. But I do of course agree that editing should in general be avoided if possible in the game threads.

Well, sure. And if he had already voted prior he shouldn't have been allowed to change it. I don't think anyone would disagree with it.
