Poor Devin. A martyr on the altar of Llama's half-baked theories.

Kiss a llama

*votes llama* Love ya buddy, but others are right in saying that a 16-way tie would not be beneficial. Now you are tied with Dev

#154

I woudln't have minded a 16-way tie, if you know what I mean.

I would point out that just because you disagree that a 16-way tie would be benfecial (I think it would be) does not make me a baddie.

Consider this: the longer the game goes on, the more information we have and the more likely we are to discover baddies. This early we are just guessing, and odds are we are guess ing wrong.So, if we consolidate the votes, odds are we will leave a civ with little life and all the baddies with full life. By the time we discover who they really are, they have have too many lives left for us to do anything about it.

If, on the other hand, he wear EVERYBODY's lives down early, when we have more information and determine who the baddies are, it will be easy to kill them.

I know

But it could.

#161

Everybody wants to rule the world.

#162

Game theory suggests this would be implausible because it would benefit everyone to not participate over participating.

#163

I can't stand this indecision married with a lack of vision.

#164

A flaw, llama - all of the baddies have some way to do extra damage. It doesn't matter that there are more civ lives than baddie, because we would be distributing our damage around and they would not. If I were a baddie, I would be *cheering* for your plan. Though not out loud, since it would eventually become fairly obvious how rough it would be on the civs.

You can go your own way.

#166

Tears for Fears is a trade worthy of a Caveat Emptor warning.

linki - Yeah sorry, agreeing to take apart in this charade is tantamount to asking civs to lose.

linki 2 - Until a landslide brings you down.

#167

Also, since we wouldn't be voting with intent to kill, we would be gaining much less information every vote.

I don't think you're bad, llama, but take a careful look at anyone who agreed with you.

I don't mean not participating in the vote, silly. I mean not participating in your Ponzi scheme.

How would it benefit each individual to consolidate the vote than to spread it out? How would I as an individual have been benefited by voting for Devin, who had votes, than INH who had none?

#176

I am very happy with how this day has gone. The way Nev and Rob (and possibly BWT) disagreed with me makes me feel much better about them. The way Elohcin, Mongoose and INH disagreed with me makes me feel much worse about them. I think a lot of information has been gained here.

7 players missed the vote? The host is not pleased.

They will feel only a glimpse of my wrath! And hopefully it will be enough. Otherwise, the punishments will increase.

Day 1: Hello, Forest (Again)

No one has died.

It is now Night 1. You have 24 hours to find Dr. Fetus!

#180

Fuck.

#181

If any player wishes to know his or her current life count, shoot me a PM at any time. I am tracking them.

#182

Sorry everyone! I was at a family event and thought the poll ended at 19 instead of 13. I went to log on at quarter after on my phone and it was already over. Oh well.

I was leaning toward voting for llama, but I'm not 100% sure if I would have.

So wait. Did you throw out that idea of yours to gauge reactions then? Was that the main purpose behind it or do you actually believe spreading the votes out that much would be better?

I initially floated it as an idea because I thought it made logical sense in the early stages of the game. I still think it makes some sense, although I am not 100% committed to it. Others pointed out some very sensible flaws (particularly Nev.)

However, I was also happy to see people's reactions and I thought some people were a little too eager to use it as a rationalization for voting for me.

I had someone ask me some good questions about this, so I thought I would make this clear in thread just in case there is anyone else wondering.

I will not update you on your life count every time it changes. That would be too much work for me given my schedule. You should know how many lives you started with and how many votes you have taken. However, if you ever want to know your up to date life count, please feel free to PM me at any time to ask. I will be happy to provide it to you.

Also remember, 1 vote = 1 life taken away. A player will be lynched when his/her lives are reduced to 0.

#185

Cna you just post my life to the thread for everyone to see so they know how hard/easy it will be to kill me? That is information I feel that the public has a right to.

So you can say that you aren't Dr. Fetus?

Oh, I have not forgotten about you, my friend. I think you have played enough mafia games with me and know me well enough to know that better than to jump on me about a crazy theory, so I have an eye firmly planted on you.

Can we have a night poll please? I am in the mood to vote.

Trying new things is overrated. Status quo is the way to go!

I will now allow space for Epi to quote Hues Corporation's "Rock the Boat."

I'm also in a tremendously bad mood unrelated to any of your lovely people! (And not James either!)

One other note on this:

If your life count is affected in a way other than by losing lives due to votes cast against you, I do alert you of this fact. If you lose lives due to votes, then I do not update you on your life count.

Hopefully that makes sense. If anyone has any other questions about this, please don't hesitate to ask!

Can I have a million dollars and a Lamborghini?

Is this just a game or real? If it's the second, does that mean the host has to give us whatever we ask for?

Good point! Since there are more civvies than baddies, can we assume that o aggregate there are more civvie "lives" than baddie "lives?" If we can make that assumption, shouldn't we spread out the vote as much as possible each lynch, so that the baddies will die off by attrition?

I'd argue that baddies are likely to have been given more lives by our host in order to keep things "interesting" for longer. By this logic, if everyone received one vote a night, civvies would die out first.

#199

What kind of fuckery is this?

#200

Ooooohhhoho! Too many lols to quote

I'm glad to see that no one died!!! I honestly don't think llama is a baddie... At least I'm not getting those vibes from him yet, anyway. But for now I won't be voting for him. I am intrigued by the information that Llama was able to gain from his suggestion, though. Very interesting reactions that I will be looking into more

Well done, Llama!! *there needs to be an applause emoticon, or a slow clap*

And thanks for the vote Hedgey!!! I knew I could count on you!

Linki Boomslang: I believe that your assumption is correct.
