But wait! Dead mafia members still win if their team wins.

Sometimes, to kill a suicide bomber, you have to think like a suicide bomber. By committing suicide.

That's a very good point. Com'on guys ... take one for the team!

What Happens when He Sleeps

Calumon in Outer SPACE!

The next one will be a little later because I didn't have a picture of Luiga and Nidoqueen at work and my Memory of them wasn't up to snuff.

I finally died....

but yeah, the random generator seems screwed to me :/

That there is a 25 percent chance checker. Change the 25 to check other percentages.

That's what I'm using to figure things out.

I just got a string of 5 successes... hmm... I wonder what their seeding with.

wandering · « **Reply #105 on:** July 25, 2006, 03:26:06 PM »

the success rate does seem a little high. I'd use random.org to get an integer from 1-100, with any number from 1-25 being success.

Athrun Zala · « **Reply #106 on:** July 25, 2006, 03:54:37 PM »

seems like:
a pseudorandom generator, which gives us X, and 0<=X<=100
the chance of success is Y
and you fail if Y<X

interesting method, but would've been better if we had known our chances

Pale · « **Reply #107 on:** July 25, 2006, 03:58:35 PM »

I seeds with the PHP default, which I believe is either current time, or current time millis. Either way, I'm not refreshing it fast enough that the seed would matter...

ShyGuy · « **Reply #108 on:** July 25, 2006, 04:01:38 PM »

wait wait wait. Are you saying it was part of someone divine plan that Meowth would die??

Ok, I can accept that.

Death of a Queen

I'm proud of this one. Took some artist license on the time of day though.

That one looks great Ceric, probably your best drawing so far.

So Im confused, are you using the twenty five percent for everything, or do you change the percentages around depending on the person's role?

"Here's a crazy idea: why not try and find out what is keeping my alive and eliminate that."

But that you?... and the last assassin dosen't have the balls (lol, I should know I am a ball) to do it.

Ceric · « **Reply #113 on:** July 25, 2006, 05:42:07 PM »

Thx. It took a while to do the cobble stone (brick). I like it too.

Pale · « **Reply #114 on:** July 25, 2006, 06:13:49 PM »

I am using several different numbers. 25% may not even be used. It was just an example to show you how to work the script.

18 Days · « **Reply #115 on:** July 26, 2006, 06:19:23 AM »

Confirmed 100% is being used.

"Goldeen Goldeen"

Hi everybody! I knew if I tried hard enough, I'd end up here! ^_^
At least I went out in a blaze of glory, stoicly pulling hoppip with me unto that great abyss, plunging headlong with that evil one, thinking, even though I die, others may live, and OH WAIT NEVER MIND.

I think I had most things figured out by the end, but it doesn't do much good when the townies can't rely on the only weapon at their disposal (voting) to get rid of the bad'uns, and in fact their only weapon actually hurts THEM more than anyone else.

EDIT: I do dig the mangled avatar, though

And I agree, Ceric - nice one. Looking forward to seeing my noble fall immortalized in lead and paper, er red green and blue pixels.

18 Days · « **Reply #117 on:** July 26, 2006, 06:27:17 AM »

Well maybe if the townies were intelligent and voted for Mafia that wont kill them. Like you know vudu and all the others I've been screaming at since Day 2.

Well, the voting COULD'VE been an effective weapon for the townies, if we'd had the luck. But 7 times out of 8 we didn't

None of us believed that it was anything more than a fluke that you kept surviving. Besides, what would that mean at the end? We eliminate the rest of the other mafias, then leave you to pick us off? It would've been delaying the inevitable. At least if we voted for you while there were other mafias around, the chances for a non-townie to do the deed would've been higher.

Nope, we were already screwed.

18 Days · « **Reply #119 on:** July 26, 2006, 06:38:11 AM »

If the townies chose to vote off the people protecting me, who knows what coudl be happening? Gosh I even SUGGESTED that. notice that? The reason I keep surviving is because more than one person is protecting me.

decoyman · « **Reply #120 on:** July 26, 2006, 06:53:08 AM »

I don't think so, 18 Days. From what I understand, you can be protected from a hit, but you can't be protected from a vote-off. It's just bad luck for the townies.

ShyGuy · « **Reply #121 on:** July 26, 2006, 08:25:52 AM »

Vote Pale he's obviously taking bribes from 18 days.

Crimm · « **Reply #122 on:** July 26, 2006, 08:57:40 AM »

Seriously, there should be a point where he dies without any dice rolling. "After 4 days you're exhausted and you can no longer defend yourself."

vudu · « **Reply #123 on:** July 26, 2006, 09:12:10 AM »

This game was so broken it's not even funny. Secret roles is one thing. Probability is one thing. Both of them in the same game is too much though.

A Framed Event

Vudu's is coming later this one took some time.
