Title: Mafia - starting badwagons
Post by: wandering on September 13, 2007, 03:04:58 AM: I'm not very good at getting other players to vote with me, and was wondering if anyone had any tips? Starting a successful bandwagon is often a bad idea, however, sometimes it's necessary for survival.

If your fellow players seem unsure of who to vote for, then throw out a name. Get an associate to vote the same way immediately after your post to get the ball rolling. Also, it helps to bandwagon a townie, so the mafia can vote out an innocent and later blame you for starting the bandwagon.

The more important question is after starting a successful bandwagon that accidentally kills a townie, how do you avoid being voted out yourself the next day?

Looks like that strategy no longer works.

At some point it will be forbidden to randomly vote on day one if it keeps up. What happens if someone else votes for the same person all the time? I thought 'vendettas' we part of the fun in this game?

Maybe I just don't trust Pale in mafia farther than I can spit (and I suck at spitting).

It would be if the one being voted for actually REACTED to it. You're supposed to be all :o, not 8).

But that's part of the mystery, the suspense, the intrigue and the mystique! Who will blink first and who chickens. A test of mental mettle! The thrill of the hunt-the kill! An intellectual battle to whits end!

Also I think you meant "wits". :P

Post by: that Baby guy on June 10, 2009, 06:29:34 PM: The true best way to start a bandwagon is to cast enough suspicion on yourself that one's started against you, then use logic traps to set up one of those who would accuse you, and bandwagon against that person. Unless you're a townie. Then just collect evidence, and use a bandwagon against yourself as bait. Soon after, people will bandwagon the one you point fingers at. Mwahahaha.

Post by: Khushrenada on August 19, 2009, 12:58:54 AM: I never did get the meaning of that message. And to be honest, this isn't much of a post. I just wanted to have all the community forums show me as the last poster. Maybe I can claim this as community service. I apologize for that last joke. It completely crossed the line of good taste and logical sense. But this doesn't. Three men walk into a bar. A rabbi, a bishop and a buddhist. I forget the rest of the joke but your mother is a whore.
