Open 396 - Democracy Ho! (D3)

[Staeg]

VOTE: Psyche
Sudden revelations tell me Psyche is scum.

But you're both equally scummy in my eyes.

The what now?

@Psyche - your early posting was uhh-ish, but the wall that followed was mostly good and everything from there on made sense. Omnom is just doing omnom-things and was playing like usual, but then again, I've never seen him as scum (oh, and he hasn't seen me as town so, again, don't come at me with the "hrmmm, stag seems to be scum for doing what he did before...").
I'm also now coming to the conclusion that this is an all-town ticket to lylo due to 2b1s being, well, townie.

[Psyche]

Okay, we have 4 active players and 1 of these will not self vote.

However, with six players, 4 votes are required for a lynch. This is a deadlock.

Furthermore, Kami's last post was on the 24th, and this post was made on the 30th. That means a modkill, and a change of required votes to 5, making a lynch viable.


If Kami is town, then I'll make the case that Staeg and pbrain are scum. However, given the Martian Law, this means we lose unless I'm wrong and either Om or 2b are scum. Which I, of course, doubt.

Damn this BaM!

[Staeg]

Uhh, yeah, BaM doesn't work, and kami won't get modkilled until the end of the day, anyway. Erm.

[Psyche]

Huh?

[Staeg]

12.) If you do not post for the equivalent of a full game day (at least six days long) you will be modkilled

at the end of the day

. Further, you will be blacklisted from any future games using the BaM ruleset. Keep in mind that there are no replacements for flaking in a BaM ruleset game. Other circumstances requiring replacement are up to the mods discretion.

Well, after six days, let's lynch. Kami and Prolapsed get modkilled for not posting. There's a better than 5/9 chance that one of them's scum.

Six players alive.
Two are scum.
All players have an equal chance to be scum.
There is a 2/6 = 1/3 chance for a player to be scum.
2/3 to be town.
4/9 that both Prolapsed and Kami are town
5/9 that one of them is scum.
That's ignoring the fact that some of us are unlikely to be scum.

If it's a 50/50 toss-up that scum get modkilled vs. a 100% chance we have lurkers alive in LyLo.

[2birds1stone]

EBWOP: if it's a 50/50 toss-up that scum get modkilled vs. a 100% chance we have lurkers alive in LyLo, I pick the former.

[Staeg]

As I said, the lurkers won't get modkilled until the end of the day, even if they lurk out the 6d period... sadly...

[Psyche]

I thought he was referring to the "day" of the parentheses, of which six constitutes a death warrant. It wouldn't make sense that it be at the end of a game day.

Imagine 6 days going by and then our kami showing up to give a full game analysis before deadline. He is subsequently modkilled after hammering Om. For just taking too long. It really seems counterproductive to the mod's goal of running a game unruined by flakery.

[2birds1stone]

He wouldn't be hammered because he posted though.

Someone's gonna have to self-vote.

[Psyche]

Someone's going to have to selfvote if the flakers aren't dealt with before deadline. 4 active players and 4 to lynch.

Bah. Wevshould've forseen this and lynched a lurker. Damned pbrain...

And we all know who "someone" is.

[Staeg]

Well, technically a townflip in the middle of a day would have to end it (which makes the town unable to lynch), and a scumflip would be, well, a scumflip. However

Mod: the BaM ruleset states that a lurker is modkilled after 6 days of no posting. Does the modkill occur at the end of the actual game day or the 6-day period?

(by reviewing the 12th rule I noticed that it's AT LEAST 6 game days, so it's definitely at the end of the day if no posts were made)

[Psyche]

Oh. Staeg wins at reading legalese.

I hope Kami is scum, but there really is no way to know, is there?

We need to draw the day out to let kami have a chance of returning. May as well let Om die by deadline.

[Prolapsed Brain]

I'm not lurking. I'm BUSY.

[2birds1stone]

... Ah crap, the six day counter for Prolapsed just reset.

Okay, Prolapsed is officially scum. Content dude, it's important.

[2birds1stone]

Oh, wait, he posted today, he can't be modkilled now.

[Staeg]

I'm not lurking. I'm BUSY.

From what I've seen in your posting history, you've been busy ever since you joined your first game. Correct?

[2birds1stone]

Okay, he normally lurks. However:

http://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.ph ... er_sort=Go

He normally does manage to post content.

[Psyche]

I'm not lurking. I'm BUSY.

Mod: the BaM ruleset states that a lurker is modkilled after 6 days of no posting. Does the modkill occur at the end of the actual game day or the 6-day period?

End of the day. However, it is at LEAST 6 days - it is the length of the game day (7). That rule is in there for swift games, etc.

[Om of the Nom]

Alright, I'll self vote whenever you guys want. I am town, but I think both Psyche and 2b1s are now. I am probably not going to be able to do much later on anyway, as you've seen how much my mind can change.

My scum picks are Staeg and one of PBrain/Kami.

If I hammer now will Kami be modkilled?

[Staeg]

Uhh don't hammer. If you hammer a townie and it really is some combination of pbrain+x, we outright lose.

[Om of the Nom]

So are we just going to stall out the rest of the day?

[Staeg]

No, I want to do something here (and now that I actually think of it, it won't matter in the end). Perhaps pbrain can actually do something.

[Om of the Nom]

So wait, do we want a No-Lynch (from deadline) or not?
