but honestly, to me, it seems like you might be overcompensating for those quotes. That very well could have been your reasoning but somehow I doubt you put that much thought into a few lines like that.
You find it surprising that someone you know has extensive training as a mathemetician tends to break things down as stats?

I mean, I personally always start everyone off as 50/50. They could be either light or dark. It doesn't depend on how many players there are. I'm going to let it lie for now, though, cause this is all perspectives.
Well, thing is, if you think everyone is 50/50, it's not 'we both have our own equally correct way of looking at things' cse, you're simply wrong. We have never had a game where the anti-town component has been anywhere near 50%, I tihk the highest was 40% in yuna's, 10 players, 3 DFs and one SK, 4/10, last game it was 4/15, normally it's around 25-33%. If you mean to say 'everyone has an equal chance of being guilty' well that's true, they have an equal chance, and it's probably 30% in this game. While we never really do it specifically this way, since hunch, vibe and intuition play such a role but can not be easily expressed mathematically, ultimately, barring ulterior motives, people vote for the person they think has the highest probability of being a DF.
I do, however, agree that at this point, if it comes to random lynch, FT should be our target.
Everyone seems to agree FT is suspicious, and many seem to think he should be the eventual lynchee barring the emergence of a better candidate, how then am I more suspicious for having also stated this?
The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.
