Bookwyrm627: A better formatted example would look more like this:

if(!shotTaken) {
Shoot();
} else {
AskOthersToShoot();
}

mchack: ok, pretty lamist code though, init? (<- heheehehehe)
what if you're in the mob? wouldn't want to shoot your godfather (or yourself for that matter)
so who do you shoot? if(rnd not in buddies){Shoot(rnd);} ...?
and for that matter where's your scum hunting routine?
would it be possible for town bots to detect abnormalities in the random shooting of mafia vs. the random shooting of town?
Now I wanna see a simulation of these bots doing battles of russian roulette... would be fun to see what strategy would bring out zfrs nash equilibrium.
Who said anything about me being town? I just want to shoot people.
I stand by my code, even if I'm Mafia. Especially if I'm Mafia.
Everyone.
It is already there: Kill people until all scum are dead.
No, because you've already defined the shooting as random.
Bots would probably have a very different equilibrium than human players, because human players can talk.

Ah no. See, the point about Nash equilibrium is that it's the optimal strategy if you don't know anything about the other player (or assume they follow optimal strategy too). If you have extra information about the strategy your opponent uses, e.g. by talking, reading their facial expressions, knowing that they're poor players, knowing they don't make sound judgments... etc. etc. etc, then you can pick a "better" strategy that gives you better results than Nash equilibrium strategy, but in that case you are not in Nash's equilibrium (and if your opponents realizes you're not using your optimal strategy, he can pick a better counterstrategy that gives them better results and makes your play suboptimal. Of course, if you notice that then you can pick a countercounterstrategy).

If you want to play, slot #10 is yours.

Protip: to defeat the Cyberdemon, shoot at it until it dies.

deadbolt and flubbucket complete our set: we have a thirteen-player game!

I'm going to try and set up a board for the russian roulette 'prologue' now, but I'm not on a computer so it might be too much of a faff.

If we could try and compile a list of everybody who's up for Russian Roulette prologue game:

-Trentonlf
-ZRF
-Bookwyrm
-PoppyAppletree
-McHack
-Bler
-adaliabooks


is this right so far? Or if we're doing it by those who AREN'T playing:
SirPrimalform
Elebutterfly

Let's hear from you all.

I'm OK with shooting someone as foreplay to lynching.
Posted August 16, 2018
I could be onboard with shooting people.

Probably not going to be too active for the next three to four days though... but I can probably manage to type

Shoot Lift

At least once a day ;)

I mean, as long as you've considered how to balance it technically you could sign up people who aren't even playing and someone will shoot them.

I'm not opposed to 'playing' but realistically that will mean getting shot long before I'm actually able to log in and see what has transpired. I'm not really online at the same time as most other potential players.
