Why "strange"? To ban someone, an absolute majority (50% + 1 vote) needs to vote. However, due to various vote restrictions, things like this sometimes happen:smile26:
Why "majority" to ban someone? Whoever gets even a single vote is the one who gets banned, and the question for the other players is what motivated the single player who voted and why they took on that responsibility.

I think this doesn't work with 10 players (the game ends too quickly), which is why it's often suggested as a "No New Votes" rule.

why "majority," if it's just to hang someone? Who even voted, and even if it's just one person – that's the one who's "dead," and what motivated the single player who voted and why they took responsibility – that's a question for the other players.

Well, I think it doesn't work with 10 players (the game ends too quickly), which is why "No New Victims" is often suggested.
It's not that it's bad, but it makes Mafia much harder to play. After the first vote, they'll be exposed (even if only two or so people vote for the Mafia, the Mafia will have to counter with their own votes to prevent someone from being hanged). This requires a much more intense game. And logically, it's strange... A jury is guided by the majority of votes, not by a couple.

In a live Mafia game, no one counted votes; everyone simply voted, and that was it, without any of those "no new votes" rules. No one kept track of the number of votes, whether it was more than half or not; the main thing was that there was a majority for someone. I don't know why the rules needed to be changed here.

Because the rules weren't changed here; it's just that the game is completely different. The rules on our forum also aren't arbitrary. /topic/at/258919/

There are some minor differences, but the format is generally the same.

I understand you, I didn't take into account that each mafia member seems to have a night action, so it's not very beneficial to eliminate your own teammate for an alibi. The last time I was a mafia member, my partner and I planned from day one to try to eliminate each other, and in the end, I succeeded – I got rid of the suspicion until the end of the game, but I lost in the battle of night actions because there were too many peaceful roles left.
