koff, by my understanding the space marine can only kill villains... if he doesn't get himself doing it.
i understand this and i'm not sure where i implied otherwise?
but nonetheless i apologize for the lack of clarity, we'll chock it up to the fact that it's nearly four in the morning!

and on that note, it looks like it's bedtime for koff.

or we can just hop on jericho's remark about silent players and lynch tardis and ark. 13.33% is still pretty crummy odds and i'm not inclined to target ldida or space monkey, so it makes little difference to me! i'll let you guys make this call.

Mafia...IN SPACE

alright, well

by my reasoning (and please do chime in if you feel my thinking is unsound) our best hope is to abstain tonight and take our first shot at lynching tomorrow. since the mafia will kill one of our guys tonight, meaning that we'll have a smaller pool to draw from tomorrow and therefore a slightly better shot at a favorable lynch (though we'll still need to do it twice in a row to win). one day is the most we can afford to abstain from; any more than that and we'll wind up in a position where the mafia's numbers match ours. assuming everyone has the same chance of being mafia, this course of action should improve our odds from 8.33% to 13.33%.

it's late at night so i'm not very confident in my explanatory abilities so here's a spreadsheet that will hopefully clarify my point! :

"plan 9 from outer space"

you might notice that these figures don't factor in the space marine's (unreliable) power. the reason for this is mostly that i am bad at math and i'm not really sure how to work that into the calculations. however, i am fairly sure that this works out favorably for the space marine as it gives him an extra night and therefore an extra shot at nailing a villain. if anyone wants to crunch the numbers for it though, just to be sure, then be my guest.

just wondering, what happens in the event of a tie vote? i'm looking at a few possible game outcomes and can't really predict where they'll all go if i don't know how to handle ties.

(i'm not actually giving up, i just really wanted to say space fuck)

let's see, uh... we actually have a chance of surviving if the space marine gets lucky and kills a villain at night, so there's at least some hope if we mess up today. i guess for now all we can do is stir up some conversation and see if there's anybody says anything remotely lynchworthy.

Mafia...IN SPACE

so... four space village, two space scum

if we mislynch today, or if we mislynch the next day, we're space doomed

and our space cop is dead right off the space bat


... you'll have to pardon my negativity when i say that we're space fucked.
