976: mystyry box of sylvyr I: isis game. day 3

[Gypyx]

Yeah, akarin's reaction doesn't feel genuine, like, he's making kinda convoluted explainations and trying to deflect the pressure

She

And what don't you understand?

Sorry, and wdym by "not understeand"?

What's convoluted? I thought I explained everything pretty clearly and I'd like to clear up any confusion.

The reasoning you expressed about the 3rd parties not counting as scum, that's kinda weird imo, like, because the size of a scumteam is 1, you don't include it?

[Gypyx]

Nic, you're some kind of informed townie or what?

[NicCage]

The thing about 3rd parties is they likely do not have the power to kill at night, at least there’s no way that all 3 can kill. They are also not working together, at least not nearly as closely. It makes the most sense to look for scum because they are present in both scenarios and they are the biggest threat.

Yeah informed is part of my role, that’s where the percents come from.

[SKYEscrapers]

It's Day 1 in a Micro.

Why the fuck are we worried about 3p roles atm!? lol

[NicCage]

Cause it’s mentioned in the setup, either 2 scum and 7 town, or 4 town and 5 non-town, 2 of which share a wincon

...
You think I fully read OPs before playing games?

I've literally been modkilled for not following a rule I had no clue existed before

In SKYE we had an ongoing joke about Awoo being the only person in the game to read the rules! XD

Anyway, what I'm saying is that if that is the setup, it looks like we'll find out sooner than later as 5 3p roles gives us a high percentage of an early elim or NK on one. It's not really worth speculating about atm imo.

[SKYEscrapers]

It's still me. Do I need to sign consecutive posts?

Meh.

You keep saying this but you're also pushing me while calling me 3rd party

At the outset of the game he was 90% town and 10% scum for me.

This is his role claim, by the way.

We're in a neighborhood together; he's claiming that he was told that I only have a 10% chance of being scum.

But now, if I were to put money on it, I'd say he's a third party.

Based on what? Lowposting?

UNVOTE:

need more experienced (with schadd and in general) players than i to evaluate this claim, because i really have no idea.

[DoubtingThomas]

Ugh wtf? Theres a Mason claim?

[DoubtingThomas]

Does it change anything?
Ill come Back when i am not tired and tilted as fuck though

Is niccage the type of player to read instructions a lot? Anyone know? Imo those who are aware of it would only be aware because they are 3p themselves. I will also town read skye for that.

Cage and dunn might be the ones sharing single alignment too

Tgp was not townie and similarly akarin wasnt either imo

[DoubtingThomas]

Ffs i joined this game to play a normal set up

[DoubtingThomas]

rules, adapted from nexus's

--most important rule: be nice and don't be mean--

general:

- Please adhere to the site rules.
- Do not discuss this game of mafia outside of this thread.
- Day phases will last 12 days (or until an execution is achieved).
- Night Phases will last 48 hours maximum. On any given night, if all players PM me that they are okay to speed up the night, it will end sooner.
- During night phase, no talking may be done in the thread.
- Do not quote PM's from the mod at all (real or fabricated).

This includes specific timestamps; please ask me if you're uncertain whether something breaks this rule.

Paraphrasing is acceptable.
- If you have any questions about your role, or the game, feel free to PM the mod.
- "Bah" posts are not allowed.
- If you break any of these rules, you might get modzoinked.

voting / player actions:

- Vote either with vote tags (VOTE: schadd) or with bold (

vote: schadd

). Note that I didn't include the underscore in my username; you may choose to use a string that will uniquely identify a player to me instead of the exact thing.
- Don't try to confuse me with your votes.
- You may vote No Exec to Not Execute.
- An execution will occur once a majority decision is reached. If no majority is reached by deadline, then no execution shall occur.
- Following an execution, it is twilight. You may continue to post until I lock the thread and declare it night.
- If nobody dies for 3 consecutive day and night phases, the town will win.
- If you have a Night Action, you may submit it from Night 1 and each subsequent Night (or whichever nights are specified by the role).

activity:

- You are expected to post at least once every 48 hours. If you haven't posted for 48 hours, I shall prod you. If you do not respond to the prod within 24 hours (either in thread if it's Day, or via PM during the Night) then I will replace you.
- As well, if you require more than three prods, I will force-replace you.
-

If you decide to replace out, PLEASE PM me and don't post in thread after doing so - if you want to rescind the replacement BLEASE PM ME AGAIN and dont post in thread until i have been like "ok np"

mechanics:

-

Aquamarine, 21B35F

is my color. Please don't use it.
- No impossible/hard to read text, or cryptography. For example, I would prefer that no font size smaller than the one you're reading now be used.
- The mod may make mistakes - please point out any mistakes gently. Mistakes will be corrected where possible, but sometimes mistakes are made that cannot be reversed. These will stand as final to be commiserated over after the game.
- If you need to get the mod's attention, either PM me, or bold the text you wish to draw to my attention.
- I reserve the right to alter/remove/add any rules as I see fit. You will, of course, be notified if that happens, however.

there will either be 7 town and 2 mafia, or 4 town pitted against 5 self-aligned opposing factions, two of which have some mutuality in wincon and will be able to communicate via private thread. mafia are assumed multitasking; day talk is enabled everywhere. complementary slackness can be expected to hold given the typical assumptions.

the nine roles in this game each took inspiration from one of the following sentences which were provided to me by list moderator Isis:

• Larger radars usually are used for longer range, while radars designed for detailed imaging of objects may be smaller.
  
• My cats' eye colors were virtually the same at birth, but diverged during their adolescence and became the best way to tell them apart.
  
• Once in Washington Square Park in NYC, I came across a man making music with empty containers, and I really liked it.
  
• Five lefts make a left.
  
• It seems inherently impossible to decide the appropriate amount of time to wait at midnight to assume that a traffic light is stuck on red and it is okay to ignore it.
  
• Dandelions are exciting because you can see their reproductive strategy so clearly.
  
• There should have been more than one season of Firefly.
  
• Drink lots of water every chance you get.
  
• Playing piano by memory and by reading sheet music are satisfying each in different ways.

sample townie PM:

welcome to micro 976! you are a

town horificunx.

if you at any point share separate neighborhoods with exactly two other players, you may choose one of them to be killed and one of them to exit the game in a victory. if both of them were mafia, you must recruit a player from outside of the game to become a neutral survivor.

you win when all threats to the town are eliminated.

please confirm by telling me what the bolded green text says.

Lmao its not even bolded. No town is reading that shit

I am wolf reading everyone but skye atp

[DoubtingThomas]
