    Fine, you lied to me this whole time, lied to everyone this whole time, made me waste an ability day 1 then "Screwed up" your part of it and somehow you are still on the field. Since there doesn't seem to be mafia, this is a faction game, which means now that I know your faction, I can see that I don't need you alive for me to win, so take your post and smoke it.

  • discriderdiscrider Registered User regular
    I did not make you "waste" an ability day 1.
    You decided to use it to check my claim before I even looked at it, although I did agree that yes you could indeed use the ability to check.

    And afterwards, when it became certain that I had lied instead of just highly likely, yes I was flippant about the fact that I had lied.

    I am rather surprised that so many people expected me to be telling the truth about Rock Paper Scissors when I was not offering any information about my card.

    Like, did no-one else ever play Rock Paper Scissors as a kid?
    The whole point was trying to second-guess your opponent.

    Also the math in this game kills you if random people try to tie.
    But that's not quite so obvious.

  • discriderdiscrider Registered User regular
    And I also never organised anyone's chips for them through those messages.
    The whole point was to put some information out there and have people try to play RPS with me.

    I'm pretty sure everyone's got me on Random now permanently so I guess that didn't work out.

  • discriderdiscrider Registered User regular
    So in all, I apologise to everyone who apparently did not play Rock Paper Scissors the way I play Rock Paper Scissors, and therefore did not immediately expect lying from their competitor.

  • discriderdiscrider Registered User regular
    (Note to self: Next Rock Paper Scissors game, message everyone the truth immediately and win the first round)

  • discriderdiscrider Registered User regular
    Also if anyone who hasn't messaged me about what attributes they share with my card (3 green squares) wants to, now would be a good time to do so.

    @Brody @Cythraul Since, like me, you each have already had a night of inactivity, don't forget to vote tonight. That goes double for Cythraul since his missed vote was last night.

    Sorry discrider but GG only has a reason to contact Assuran if there's a chance of being knocked out of the lead if he switches votes. While I wouldn't be a party to that convo, I might be able to learn things from what happens as a result. Since you're the runner-up, that requires bringing your count back up into contention.

    Yes yes.
    This is of course why you have a vested interest in attacking me.

    To be clear why I want to see if that deal goes through: It means they've got a shared wincon. I think I've worked out the list of what cards were eliminated each night, and which are still in play. But the voting record has been really uninformative so far so I need some interesting switches to work off of if I want to deduce who's who. I won't know automatically what they are or even what their shared wincon is, but it's a step forward at least.

    Okay, so, host says there are:
    • 3x 1's, 3x 2's, and 5x 3's left
    • 2x reds, 4x blues, and 5x greens
    • 5x triangle(s), 5x square(s), and 1x circle(s) remaining

    If I've worked out the missing cards and days' eliminations correctly, then there are 3x 3 green [shapes] and 3x [#] blue triangles still in play. These are the only two blocks that share more than one win con that have more than two players left. Of course I should point out that if I'm right, one or more players were lying about their card in PMs. If I'm wrong, one or more other players were lying about their card in this thread. Edit: I'm inclined to believe the in-thread statements over PMs, because there's a bigger risk involved.

    Unless GG has announced his alignment somewhere I missed, I'm good with this vote.

    Barring a bunch of people using the 2x vote power against you (and no one using it for you), I think you're still alive. Even at a tie, GG reached 5 first, so if I understand the OP's 'in case of tie votes' rule then you should be safe.

    Edit: I just realized that's why Virgil bought it and you didn't day 3 (at the time I just assumed someone had 2x voted him off).

    Well, initially I wasn't taking this seriously at all. When I'd survived to day 4 I decided that since I was still in, then I might as well be in it to win it (sorta like Jeremy Clarkson on that one Top Gear where they had to do a fuel-economy race from France to Blackpool and he tried and failed to sabotage his run). So I started trying to reconstruct who's who, do vote analysis, network a little more, etc. And I get killed on day 5. :P

    So Brody's the only person who hasn't told me he shares an alignment with me.
    Seems like a safe bet?
    Although he's been voting my way so idk.

    Yeah, I don't particularly want to vote for you, or vote for anyone, but there are too many triangles left for me to just throw my vote away :/

    Like ideally at this point I'd just let my attributes sort each other out.
