The Syndicate

Was Made silenced today? He voted without saying anything, and he did say something while insanified similar to "why not just silence me then?"

Crap, it's getting down to the wire and I'm not sure who to vote for. I obviously am going to have my own best interests at heart but I don't find LC suspicious at this point.

I didn't even notice that. It looks like he was in that case.

True, she would only be really really likely to be right... moreso if she's on the Gay Parade baddies, because then there's only one Coquelicot baddie left (barring Made's recruitment).

I'm down with saving myself, so DisPor it is. I hope he's bad.

This might seem weird, but something LC said Earlier made me change my mind so I'm going to vote do too

*DP too. I was typing fast so I didn't miss the vote, lol

I voted for DP. I didn't want to die and I don't suspect LC.

Hm, well that could've been worse. Could've been better too though...

How did you know voting DP would be a shot at saving yourself? At the time you voted he had one vote and you had three. BR hadn't voted yet. Did she mention her intent to vote him before that?

Shit, you guys are on a team together aren't you... I just went back through BR's posts and found nothing in there about DP. If either of you wanted to save yourselves (like you both said you did), then voting DP does not make sense. And your post looks like you slipped up there LC and gave away that you guys can talk outside the thread.

I should have stuck with my original suspicion of you LC, but you looked like you had some serious civ intent. Now I feel like a sucker... Someone tell me if I am missing something that explains this.

DUDE! DP had two extra votes against him.

That was posted before the lynch, I guess you missed it and forgot about the Host announcement saying the same. But chill on your latest theories, because that is the actual explanation.

EBWOP: at the time of sprityo's post, DP had 1 'apparent' vote, and BR and I both had 2.

Derp. Don't mind my tin foil moment there, lol!

Day 4 (sorry, I didn't save Day 3)

It's all good, I do appreciate your intentions with your vote, despite the reality that I had already been more than saved.

My attitude right now is that there are no Indies left in the game, assuming Scotty was an Immortal and not saved by the Civ role that pardons lynches. I don't think it's very likely that that role would have used up the save on Day 1 Scotty.

Just Civvies and baddies here, folks!

Dana wrote:I think I am going to vote Typhoony again because I still don't feel great about his Boulders vote and his vote for dispor seems kind of similar in a way. I have this (maybe not too well thought out) theory that someone who doesn't really play much in a game is probably a civvie since if they weren't, their teammates would be encouraging them to be around more or at least vote to avoid penalties. And while I would like dispor to be more involved, lynching him just because he's not here isn't helpful to us because one less civ is still one less civ and helps the baddies get closer to winning.

Have you ever been on a baddie team where people actively tell the lower posters to be more active in the thread when there hasn't been any suspicion thrown against them so far?
I'd love to hear it if so.

Also, I'll try and explain the tie vote thing one more time.

It's not about your indifference to either of them being lynched, it's about the possibility of giving baddies a chance to save their teammate. Or, in statistical terms, about the expected value of your action.
If you widen the gap between the front leader in the lynch and the next person in line, the chances of baddies saving their teammate is lower than before.
If you create a tie, the chances of baddies saving their teammates is higher than before.

The only way your line of thinking would work is if you are 100% sure that both persons are bad. In that case, it truly doesn't matter who gets lynched (well, it may depending on other factors, but let's not get into that).
But you are not 100% sure, let's say you are 70% sure or something instead.
Let's assume that, in the case of a tie, baddies are more likely to save their teammate than not.
Let's assume for simplicity's sake that the amount of teammates both players can have is equal.
This is based on probability. It does not mean that what in my eyes is most likely to happen will happen every time, just that I think it will happen most of the time.

Player A has 4 votes.
Player B has 3 votes.

Now let's look at the scenarios we can possibly have.

Scenario 1: Player A is bad. Player B is bad.

Doesn't matter what you do, a baddie dies.

Scenario 2: Player A is bad. Player B is civ.

- You vote player A, increasing the margin. Player A's teammate(s) will not bother to save their teammate. A gets lynched. A baddie dies.
- You vote player B, tying up the vote. Player A's teammate(s) see an option to save their teammate and act on it, giving B more votes. Player B gets lynched. A civ dies.

Scenario 3: Player A is civ. Player B is bad.

- You vote player A, increasing the margin. Bs teammates will not let B get lynched. Player A dies. a civ dies.
- You vote player B, tying up the vote. Bs teammates will not let B get lynched and will vote A. Player A dies. A civ dies.

Scenario 4: Player A is civ. Player B is civ.

A civ dies no matter what you do.

------
Your vote only matters in Scenario 2 in this case, and voting for player B like you did will only make it more likely that a civ dies. Voting Player A in that scenario is thus the better option.

Why are you obligor to reason with Dana if you mastermind her vote was baddie-motivated to begin with and she is therefore not genuinely confused wagon to why a tie wouldn't be beneficial? Oh I know! Because you're the one who's putting on saving act.

I have never been on a baddie team at all ever. I am just assuming that a baddie team would not let their members accumulate votes for not normally voting/playing since it would just hurt their team to lose members.

I still don't entirely understand your statistics. I was going with scenario 1, so I didn't think it mattered. Of course I wouldn't create a tie if I didn't think both people were bad.

Bill the Lizard focus phr energy on everyone equally. I suggest you do the same.

I implore everyone to look at every time Typhoony irreprovable responded to me obligor how Mock Turtle dodgy and manipulative he has been with each response. exenterate I do not see how he hasn't been lynched yet with how suspicious he has been throughout the game so far.
