wait what? all unpopular characters at the end lets the mole wait till last two-three and fail the challenge.

popular + unpopular at end forces a win

[/ QUOTE ]
1. No it doesn't, because 3 popular + 1 unpopular at endgame is just plain awful.

2. How so?

3. Obviously, username rand has to go into this past the first 2-3 people.

Basically, my proposal is this.

Bart, lisa reveal. Rand everyone else and get them to post their name in that particular order.

i have made 41 posts in this thread (42 now) and we still have like 50 less than the other team. i am an attention whore.

ok well since you guys didnt reveal at this point do whatever. the mole could be anyone. it could be me if i wanted to give up the round and clear myself. if could be lastchance or chuck for trying to talk us out of revealing. it could be tokyo for coming up with an idea and then not doing it. it could be fnord for saying he didnt read the rules. or it could be any of the 7 people who are afk.

does this post help? nope.

Whoa... this task seems unfair to the mole, and very easy for us. In the tv show, mole had extra info which I think they should have here.

With chuckles brilliant idea, we should have a 23% chance of narrowing the mole to one of two players (bear with me for a second).

Pick ANY order. We can have someone volunteer to rand() and reveal FIRST (that way we dont run the risk of having the mole rand and pick themselves as last to go). If the mole rands, he/she will have a 1/14 chance of picking the unassigned role. If they go, say, 5th, they'll have a 1/10 chance. Etc etc. The average chance of success is 23%.

Now, if the mole guesses wrong and calls out a taken role (likely), that person will pipe up and say HEY YOURE THE MOLE. Then we know that the person who just revealed is the mole OR the person who called them out is the mole. So we just have to watch those two like a hawk from then on.


There have to be problems with this plan right?

the mole is not going to lie unless he goes near the end

even then he would be dumb to lie cause we will easily figure out who he is

by the way everett i thought i had a 30 minute conversation with you last night on aim .... until finally the person said"who do you think i am?" i said everett ldo and it wasnt (it was bravos).

i already revealed so if u guys want me to rand i will.

i still say the problem is people havent posted and to time it so that they all post in order on time and giving us time to vote seems unlikely and unnecasary especially since i doubt the mole is lying
