My role pm says that I win the game when all factions that require the townies for their wincon are dead.
Fishy and all his undersea friends do not require townies to die, even if he lied and his point conditions give him bonus points for lynching townies.
I'm gonna apply some super Bayes' theorem (aka watching for people moving towards their actual wincon) and say that everyone on Fishy's wagon is super scummy."Let us say that you are right and there are two worlds. How much, then, is this 'other world' worth to you? What do you have there that you do not have here? Money? Power? Something worth causing the prince so much pain for?'"
"Well, I..."
"What? Nothing? You would make the prince suffer over... nothing?"-

I knew you were town. But here's the thing. What happens in end game situations if all these "others" begin to outnumber the townies?popsofctown wrote:Fishy and all his undersea friends do not require townies to die, even if he lied and his point conditions give him bonus points for lynching townies.

Mod: Please replace me.
I apologize for having to replace out of this game, but I'm swamped with work and other commitments right now. I knew when I was invited that I couldn't handle another large game, and I should have declined, but I figured maybe my workload would slacken a bit around the corner. The opposite happened, and I'm not going to string you guys along with a bunch of "will catch up soon" posts. Good luck, and I'm disappointed I missed out on this because it has a great mod team and a great playerlist.I will fuck up your name and gender. Deal with it.
PM me to replace into Infection Mafia, a semi-open Mini Theme.-

To be honest, I don't get why we should even take the chance. There's a good possibility that Fishy will flip scum Roleblocker. If there's a Bus Driver out there, then we should cross that bridge when we come to it.Jack 725 wrote:I would rather lynch pops, but it seems pointless to try when most people are just going to be all charter like.

I'm assuming this is the new position that a majority of people are taking. I suppose players are also considering that maybe farside is lying and maybe I am lying. Knowing what I know, however, is that a Roleblocker visited me, Fishy doesn't deny using a roleblock, and farside said Fishy visited me. I mean, I get the idea of leaving "non-threatening" third parties alive. I really do get that. I played a large game with the Mod some months back where we spent over a dozen pages arguing about whether or not an admitted Lyncher should be lynched or not. In that game, it was officially impossible for the Lyncher to win on the first day, even if his target was lynched.pops 728 wrote:My role pm says that I win the game when all factions that require the townies for their wincon are dead.
Fishy and all his undersea friends do not require townies to die, even if he lied and his point conditions give him bonus points for lynching townies.
I argued, unsuccessfully, that the Lyncher shouldn't be lynched. Guess what? I was scum that game and I primarily wanted to cause chaos in the town.
So, frankly, I don't really get the mentality behind leaving Fishy alive. I don't know who Bayes is and all that jazz, but I'm guessing I can't go toe-to-toe with pops on advanced mafia theorems. All I know is, it makes sense for the town to kill a player who's throwing roleblocks around and admits to not being town. If someone wants to dumb down the advanced, high brow strategy for the town to manipulate the third parties in their favor, then they are welcome to try. Right now I don't get it though.

Mod, if you don't have Internet access for whatever reason, will there be an official substitute Mod until you get back? Congratulations on graduating!-

Pretty sure that pops means "require killing townies for their wincon" - it's just sloppy paraphrasing.RedCoyote wrote:Wait a minute, pops.
pops 728 wrote:My role pm says that I win the game when all factions that require the townies for their wincon are dead.
And actually - doesn't that mean that "non-hostile others" are indeed like townies in end game situations? Can someone win with the townie win condition AND their point stuff and be a double-winner somehow?
If that's the case, we can leave Fishy alive, leaving us free to lynch Zorblag, whom I'm sure put in a special request to be SK.Paraphrasing a role PM takes seconds, fabricating a good fakeclaim takes an eternity.

Actually im just going to say its just a high ammount of "other" on his wagon. Especially if there is a 'other v other v other' subgame going on here.I'm gonna apply some super Bayes' theorem (aka watching for people moving towards their actual wincon) and say that everyone on Fishy's wagon is super scummy.-

Im not voting fishy today. I am, beyond a shadow of a doubt, sure that he is what he has already claimed. Actions match up with driver, and what he is claiming matches up with the "non hostle" flip we have already seen. I believe he is "basically town" as well.
