Nation Simulator- MkII
It is that time again - to see how the citizens of webDip would run a country. Let's plan on starting after the Mafia game, but we can get our ducks in a row now. We will need a volunteer(s) to help run the show. This could take some amount of knowledge and dedication, as well as an unbiased nature. Please respond if you are interested in helping or participating.

On a side note, the Inventor section:

"Inventor:
You are Princess Peach, the Inventor!
During the day you may make an accusation against someone; the candidate who reaches a plurality will be lynched and barred from the election process by the Citizens of the Mushroom Kingdom at the end of the day. During the night, you tend to your inventions. You have 3 items you can invent: a Blaster Gun; a Magic Mushroom potion; and a Flower Power booster. You can invent as many of each item as you like in the game, but you must distribute each of the 3 items before you can replenish your invention stockpile. Players receiving an item must use the item in the according game level (Day/Night) for which they receive the item, i.e., if the Inventor provides the Item to you after Night 1, you can only use your item in Day 2/Night 2 before it disappears.

Item information is as follows:
Blaster Gun - this provides the user a 1-shot gun that can be fired either in the Day or Night.
Magic Mushroom Potion - this potion gives a life boost to the player preventing their death in the Day (from lynch or gunshot) and in the Night from a night kill/gunshot.
Flower Power Booster - this provides the receiving player with an increase effect that allows for a temporary vote doubler, so that the receiving player's vote in the Day counts for 2 votes rather than 1 vote. The player MUST declare that they received the Flower Power Booster in order to use it. Players given a Flower Power Booster will be notified of this stipulation.

You cannot give items to yourself. You cannot give items to the same player consecutively. You win once all mafia/Bowser's Gang have been barred from the election. You will also receive the role PM for a Vanilla Townie role."

Problem is no one copied the other 2 paragraphs. It does say the Inventor receives a copy of the VT PM.

I interpreted brainbomb as (mistakenly) thinking ghug was inadvertently outed as inventor by the GM and he thought that it was a breach of secret role identities. Chaqa how did you see it as baiting to out a PR?

Chaqa can still explain why he thought brainbomb was baiting to out a PR. I'm very curious.

You have 2 hours 15 remaining until the end of Election Day 1!
Chaqa (3971 D(B))
22 Mar 16 UTC
Well in the possible scenario that made perfect sense when I posted it to me:
1. Brainbomb is mafia.
2. Thinks ghug/GM let slip that ghug had a different copy of the role PM from the post.
3. Tried to get confirmation of this
4. Put it out there that ghug is inventor and get that confirmed for tonight's kill

But seeing as the role PM actually is there (which I found out right after posting my theory)... meh. Maybe it still works, but it depends on brainbomb not knowing the role PM actually says that.

Seems solid-ish.
I'm not gonna lie guys, I thought brainbomb was trying to bait out the role as well.
OB_Gyn_Kenobi (888 D)
22 Mar 16 UTC
It seems like brainbomb was saying that if ghug's role was inadvertently revealed by a GM's post, that he (bb) would drop out. If anything that makes bb more likely to be town. If he were scum he'd STFU about it and just try to kill ghug N1.

I think your logic is backward.

Of course, with you being one of the leading wagons, quickly trying to get brainbomb summarily lynched would save your skin.
brainbomb (290 D)
22 Mar 16 UTC
I thought they were saying that included in Princess Peach role PM it also used the expression "Concerned Citizen". I was confused and upset and genuinely thought the GMs was confirming a question only that recipient would know. I am not the inventor thats the only truth you can deduce here Chaqa.

Feel free to kill me for being upset I thought GMs outed a PR teamate of mine
Chaqa (3971 D(B))
22 Mar 16 UTC
OK wait I missed the part about him dropping out. Maybe you're right OB. Also I'm a leading wagon? Meh, no surprise there. I'm not crazy about the Moscow lynch but it's not as bad as lynching myself.

##Vote moscow


I'm open to other suggestions. I feel like we always fall back on lynching a new player and it's kind of lame. Ever since goldie escaped that time though, it's been tough to let someone slide for being knew.

Can someone explain the cases on y2k and xorxes?
teacon7 (306 D)
22 Mar 16 UTC
@HR: You said "...though teacon seems to be doing a whole lot of nothing and I want to see some actual reads and questioning rather than generic strategy posts."

I've not really done much accusing, yes. Though if you read my first post (or my really long post), you'd see why I'm only speaking in generalities right now: I suspect that *past votes* are a better indicator of alignment than anything else, and thus day one is largely full of uncontrolled variables. I may end up voting for krellin because he's used vulgarity, but I probably won't because he's been hunting pretty aggressively and that reads as town. I'll have to take some time interpreting the voting results this evening, and share some thoughts then.

Until then, I'll share some thoughts, then get back to work:

a) I agree with y2k (and goldie?) that xorxes has gone out of his way to lay low. Asking good questions, then fading into the night? He's either a PR or mafia. I'm sort of waiting for others to chime in. I don't want to accidentally lynch a PR who is laying low as part of good town play. But until he gets here to defend himself, a suspicious unknown is... suspicious.

b) Since the lurker-discussion called him out of the shadows, how many times has Chaqa changed his vote? Is that how to escape a wagon?

Jamiet99uk (758 D)
22 Mar 16 UTC
Hmm. Well I don't see any reason to move my vote to either of the other options right now.

What I would strongly suggest is that anyone who is the *only* vote on a given target should move their vote to someone with at least two other votes. I don't think any of the people with (1) vote is going to swing at this point. The votes are too spread out.
Jamiet99uk (758 D)

@Brainbomb: Are you certain that Ghug is your strongest scum-read after all your efforts today?
Jamiet99uk (758 D)
22 Mar 16 UTC
HR, Vashta, Redeer1 and Maniac should really think about doing something more useful with their votes.

Maniac had better vote at all, actually.

Chaqa, I made a concise post on the previous page concerning my suspicion of xorxes.
brainbomb (290 D)
22 Mar 16 UTC
nope. everything I think I know is all fucked up. I still dont trust vash but nobody will follow me on vash. I feel more like Warden is a good lynch because he isnt really doing anything and he clearly abandoned his self proclaimed notch system as far as publicly making it logical.

It would be nice if the three people who have unvoted would do something with their votes too.

Currently four players have no vote on the board, and three more are solo-voters for an outside candidate. That's SEVEN players whose vote is basically having no effect on the lynch.
captainmeme (1723 DMod)
22 Mar 16 UTC
Wait, there's a VT pm included in the other PMs?

That actually means my reasoning for thinking Chaqa is town doesn't hold. I need to look back over that.

No meme, only the inventor got the copy of the role PM, based on what jessop said.
