Most of gametime has been during the night for me lol

[damo666]

@GM there are outstanding questions from me

[Jamiet99uk]

@GM

Is it 48 hour days and 24 hour nights?

What happens in an n-way tie for first where n>3?

Please could you use "##Call GM" because I search for "##" when looking for things I need to respond to.

As noted in the OP, normal WebDip Mafia is in play here, except where otherwise stated. So YES that means 48 hour days and 24 hour nights, as usual.

To the second question, I have mostly addressed this, but will expand my answer:

Vote ties ARE possible.
If there is a tie for first, both those people flip.
If there is a tie for second, only the person in first will flip.
If there is somehow a three-way tie for first, all three will flip.
If there is a four-way tie for first, all four will flip.
If there is a five-way tie for first, all five will flip.... AND SO ON.

I hope this helps.

##call GM thanks

So we can engineer a draw with an all player tie....

....if there is a a nine-way tie for first, everyone will die.

[worcej]

I doubt I'll cast any votes until near EOD.

These permavotes are dangerous.

Considering your posting style, I don’t like this position

[worcej]

In the meantime we can use &&s to soft vote.

&&vote chaqa

This requires someone to track it, the person who is "tracking" that soft vote does a lot without doing anything not good!

Loving this entrance. Consider me pocketed

[worcej]

I think it's better to just hunt for scum lmao, but that being said, when all else is equal in terms of my scum sus on a series of people I'll generally vote for the least useful of those people and in my experience it has borne out in history as the better things to do.

When we got rid of shit town early and tracked VCA we tended to do well and when I was mafia, I explicitly tried to force the opposite to occur by going on what I thought at the time to be a suicide run to get rid of durga.

I don't like this take only because you're implying we have free time here to employ VCA.

We have 2 miskills boss - you don't have the luxury to just toss one out.

I am pretty sure this is false, we have 9 people at the start, two miskills brings us down to 7, mafia kill one, now its 6. 4 town vs 2 mafia we still can win the game. Even THREE miskills D1 with that scenario Jamie pointed wouldnt mean gameover

Yes we literally have 3 miskills, but mechanically we really only have one day phase of a complete wiff to use as VCA

[worcej]

##vote worcej

So much hedging to finally get here.

##vote Flavius

[worcej]

It’s pointless to hash out any further anyway. You’ll come around, I’ll have one vote on me at EOD (just kidding, Chaqa will read this and be sure to vote me at some point just to make me wrong), and we’ll laugh about it in postgame.

Plus I have a pretty strong townread on you now, so mission accomplished for you I guess lol. Boat might be ok too

??? Why do you ahve a strong townread on him? EVERYTHING he has done so far has not been good

I find this funny. What is not good about voting scum?

My vote on you is because you seem to be implying voting to be bad here but not actually scummy. Being bad does not inherently make me scummy.

[worcej]

##vote Eden

Soft voting is stupid and honestly anti-town in my opinion. It’s not actually any pressure.

I’m not worried about this coming up with me, but I think it’s stupid and reckless to throw a vote out that you can’t take back this early in the phase without any idea how the day is going to develop. So I’d like you to explain the alternative view because it’s not obvious to me at all

Not only did he do a vote, he did TWO votes, like I am pretty sure he read the setup, this is just a wrong strategy for someone who "watched" the first gmae of the Olympics and didnt want to mess up D1 , he kinda just messed up his

How did I mess my day up?

Explain it from a town perspective and also a scum perspective.

[worcej]

I think it’s far more helpful for me as a town player to put my firm fist down on you for pushing the “soft votes” because ultimately they mean nothing and should be treated as such.

So, FWIW, I don’t think I wasted my vote on you. I firmly believe you’re scummy for pushing a soft mechanic to keep the gamestate in a controlled state.

Your vote also “means nothing” here. It’s not a credible threat. And you can’t even take it back, so now what?

He's backed himself into a wall to view EVERYTHING you and will did and do as scummy, because he has no other choice, his day has been set out for him and he has already laid the groundwork for why
(D1 of other game not being good, cant MK)
Im on the VERGE of voting worcej right now

Again - none of this analysis indicates I am scummy.

[worcej]

Your vote also “means nothing” here. It’s not a credible threat. And you can’t even take it back, so now what?

Can you explain why it means nothing? IMO the fact it can't be taken back makes it a credible threat. Unless you're arguing the wanton nature of it makes it not mean anything?

I think Eden is thinking exactly what I am; because worcej has voted so early, he is going to be arguing that Eden & Will are mafia pretty much no matter what they do or say. He can practically be ignored for them, and he'd rather focus his attention to make sure others don't follow his folly

So because I don’t agree that I can be ignored you should kill me today?

Someone seems to be far more opportunistic than the others

[worcej]

##vote worcej

Yep - literally not a single explanation on why I could be scum before this, just disagreeing with my style.

Confidence of scum in my votes:
Flavius: 60%
Eden: 33.89%
Will: 3.14%

Considering the fact that I had to take my husband to the hospital yesterday right as the game started and then juggle two children without power because a massive storm rolled through, I was pleased with the 3 or so posts I did manage to make. Also, most of the commentary was talking about bots and vote counts which I don’t understand. So just saying I’m going to be a potential vote or that I’m nobody based on those observations is super lame.

Well done Mrs Bomb. You tell him.

PS don't worry about the bot, it's irrelevant this game.
