Open 861: The Turing Test [game over]

[Loki Dokie]

game setup - The Turing Test

here is the md thread of the setup. it will also be explained below. pm or dm me if you have any questions.

setup:

~

8 human subjects (the town)

~

5 malevolent AIs (the mafia)

mechanics:

day 1 plays as normal, with the players voting someone to eliminate.
~ if the person voted out is a townie, nobody scores any points.
~ if the person voted out is mafia, the town scores 1 point.

the mafia does not have a factional kill. instead, each night, starting from n1, scum must choose two players to participate in the turing test the next day. the only requirement is that the two people participating are 1 townie and 1 mafia.

from day 2 and on, there is no votes to eliminate; instead, each day there is a turing test. the two players selected by the mafia are announced and removed from the game, but not flipped. the votes are locked between the two selected players, and the living players must vote for the person in the pair they believe to be mafia.
~ if a mafia member is voted out, town scores 1 point.
~ if a townie is voted out, mafia scores 1 point.

after one of the two has been hammered, the alignments of the selected players are revealed, and the game goes back to the night phase.

the first faction to reach 3 points wins.

both the day yeet and the mafia factional night action are mandatory.

if a hammer is not achieved by deadline, ties will be broken by seniority. if the mafia doesn't submit their action by deadline, i will randomize it for them.

@Vivax? What that’s correct.

[fireisredsir]

i think that even if kitty is scum then there's scum on that wagon

That would mean you and Loki are both town and Vulture is the scum on my wagon

why vulture

why vulture

When I was 'talking to' Greeting in the thread it felt like they weren't as serious as their posts suggested. Like they wanted to get SRd, but not explicitly.
Then I asked that question, Vulture got beamed in and pointed me at the VCs (which admittedly I didn't focus my attention on, on my own)

That slot has had two really suspicious replace outs, so I’m not convinced it can’t be scum.

[Vivax]

So, mafia picks one of theirs and one of town to go against each other every day, from Day2 on?
Interesting mech

[Loki Dokie]

the wagon is on a slot getting replaced, they are effectively dead votes

The slot's scummy actions are not undone, we should wait for a replacement though.

What do people make of this?

It’s not a gladiate though because both slots are killed and removed from the game and then people get to vote for on their alignment and if correct get points for it or something.

I thought it was weird that KT replied to that post when they hadn't expressed a read on DonGreeting at the time, see 215. The reference to "scummy actions" especially, kinda felt like he was nudging along the general "DonEmpire=scummy" narrative without explicitly taking responsibility himself. It makes most sense to me if KT is S and DonGreetingVulture slot is T, though it could be S-S as well.

I think there is probably scum on KT wagon (regardless of KT alignment) but the people I think are best candidates for scum on it (namely Bell and posssssiiiibly one of Vulture/Vivax) look more like reluctant bussing votes rather than scum-pushing-for-a-miselim votes. I have opposite feelings about the Vivax wagon, it's not hard for me to imagine any of RR/kuti/KT/Roden votes there as scum hopping on a limbait townie

[Aristeia]

does anyone actually townread KittyTacky?

[Aristeia]

it feels like everyone is more or less ready for the day to end.

i think that this is a pretty reasonable view of things and is also p close to how i see things if i assume that you're town. im not exactly confident on that point but maybe that's a sign that i should be

[Vivax]

ohhhh I hope the mafia doesn't put me into gladiator mode ohhhh

[Aristeia]

fire are you waiting for a hand written invitation or something?

[fireisredsir]

idk i always feel like there's more things that i want to see how people respond to

are we in a hurry

[fireisredsir]

i guess maybe it's better to vote kitty and not let it swing towards vivax or something

[Aristeia]

I feel like I am herding cats

[Vivax]

Not in a hurry
Game is over after 3 pts

If KT flips red that's hard to take home for mafs, even if Loki somehow is red, which I doubt

[fireisredsir]

alright fine fine

maybe it's not too late to get a flip before bedtime

~ this is a mod note.

[furtiveglance]

Hey.

[furtiveglance]

I'm realising how much WIFOM there is in this game. My initial thought was that Dannflor is the mafia because they were more TRed than kuti plz.
