Official Vote Count 3.02 Lucky numbers

Lucky numbers are generated with a sieve, like the Sieve of Eratosthenes but instead of eliminating numbers based on their value, they are eliminated based on their position in the remaining set.

Start with a list of numbers, starting at 1. Circle the 1 and then cross out every second number, leaving only the odd numbers.

Circle the 3, and then remove every 3rd number in the sequence.

Circle the 7, remove every 7th number in the sequence.

The numbers that survive this winnowing are called the lucky numbers. They have some stuff in common with primes and there are infinitely many of them.

Some numbers are lucky AND prime. We don’t know yet if there’s an infinite amount of lucky primes, but you won’t get a million dollars if you figure it out. The first few lucky primes are 3, 7, 13, 31, 37, 43, 67, 73, 79, 127, 151, 163, and 193.

Frogger, that vote for DV is worse than BBTs vote for u.


lala, how is lynching BBT win-win? Where is the win if he flips town?

[JarJarDrinks]

mtd are you in this game? who is scums?

bella why don't you wanna help us get rid of bubbly? do you think he's town??

drk halp!!

now we're talking. Lets lynch one of these Lurkers please!

I refuse to let this town lynch BBT when there are 3 people that have basically been prod dodging the majority of the game.

PLUS all 3 sat on the sidelines while we lynched scum. And they sat on the sidelines when y'all lynched mollie. They haven't gotten ivolved w/ ANYTHING happening in the game.

1 or 2 scum in that group guaranteed.

[Espeonage]

bella why don't you wanna help us get rid of bubbly? do you think he's town??

drk halp!!

Lets lynch one of these Lurkers please!

Ok lets talk about this line for a moment.

1. How is this productive?
2. If it's not productive (hint: it isn't) then what is the pro town mentality behind saying it?
3. If there is no pro town mentality (hint: there isn't) then why is the person saying it not scum?

1. It's productive cause lynching lurkers is absolutely something that should be considered in all games mafia and anyone that says otherwise is completely wrong.

2. NA

3. NA

BBT, I can't be your knight in shining armour and rescue you from the likely combination of (I'm starting to believe) misguided town and evil evil scummy scumz that are trying to get you lynched. All I can say is what I have already said. I know of a possible explanation for the lack of kill, different from All Alone's roleblock. It's hard for me to say how likely that is. I consider it possible but by no means definite. I'm not willing to elaborate at this point.

I understand what you're saying but I hope you can see what it looks like from my position. I feel like everything so far is lining up for me to be lynched.

Do you have a theory you want to share? Or anything else to say on the matter? Bias shouldn't stop you from speaking your mind.

I'm glad you asked. My wagon would be gaining 0 momentum if somebody was still alive...can you guess who that somebody is? Anti. Anti was very much not buying into the whole 'BBT is conf scum scenario'.

Further, who the hell leaves a claimed PR alive? Somebody who is trying to direct the momentum of a game, that's who. Look at the people who are alive and look at who has died and ask yourself why has that happened? What are scum trying to achieve? Why does scum!BBT leave all of All Alone, Lala, Fro99er and JarJar alive? I mean, that just looks like suicide if I'm scum, right?

This is part of the reason that I'm not fully sure Fro99er is scum - I think he would just kill me. I don't think he would try to lynch me because he should be well aware of how difficult I am to lynch (a bit egotistical, but it's true). I'm wondering whether scum are people who don't have much experience with me and expected me to be speedlynched today.

lol, BBT if you really are town this game that is the worst vote ever.

Would you like to respond to my reasoning and show me why I'm wrong?

(Also BBT I'd like to hear why you think Fro99er went on an all out Wanderer attack)

Because if he genuinely thought Wanderer slipped he wants to be the one to capitalise on it? That's pretty good for town cred to be the first to point out a scum slip (he would be more sensitive to slips as scum who knows who the other scum are). Further, he unvoted Wanderer when nobody was buying the slip,

despite apparently having numerous other reasons for thinking Wanderer was scum

. The unvote doesn't make sense because his scum read wasn't based solely on a perceived slip from Wanderer.

Oh here we go DV and BBT jumping on me. FWIW I don't think scum BBT tries to mislynch me because he knows what will happen and would rather buddy me (as he's done twice before).

DV is probably scum trying to set himself up to jump on to me.

VOTE: DV

This is the second time you have tried to push me and backed off of it very quickly when it has started to stall.

Aint NO WAY scum posts that.

I don't understand why scum doesn't make that post?

[Espeonage]

Why should it be considered?

Ok then, let me put it this way. Say half the game is lurking, you will determine a lurker to lynch first. You do this through scumhunting of the content they have posted. Ergo you lynched them because they were most scum, not because they were lurkers.

So, if it's not productive and not pro town to state, then why is the person stating it not scum?

[BlueBloodedToffee]

Esp, your scum read on me is super stale.

Let's talk about it.

[Espeonage]

Unvote, Vote: Jar Jar

Lets roll.

fucking hell mate, second time you ninja me, this time it was important.

[lalaladucks]

lala, how is lynching BBT win-win? Where is the win if he flips town?

then we lynch all alone!!

if neither of bbt or all alone are scum i'm going to quit playing mafia for the rest of the year

[Espeonage]

Esp, your scum read on me is super stale.

Let's talk about it.

Placeholder?

[BlueBloodedToffee]

Say what now?

JARJAR IS ONE OF THE MOST TOWN PPL HERE

what's going on

[Espeonage]

And he did something on par with claiming scum.

[lalaladucks]

he wants to lynch lurkers so he's scum??

[BlueBloodedToffee]

Are you serious Esp?

You would be happy to go to D4 with the contributions to date from Bella, DRK and MTD? Like, I have no idea where any of them stand in this game. You can't have 3 people getting to D4 having done nothing.

[lalaladucks]

sure lurkers (if town) are lynchbait but newbs also often wanna get rid of them in my experience??

That's the funniest thing I have read in a long, long time.

Thanks.

[Espeonage]

Why are people scared of rogue elements?

Why am I not on the list when I had I think two post total yesterday?

[Espeonage]

he wants to lynch lurkers so he's scum??

yes

If half the game is lurking, town's gonna lose. nothing u can do about that.

Lemme turn the question around. What if half the game is lurking and all the scummies are in the group of lurkers?

How does the town win if they listen to ur horrible advice?


Like if I was scum right now, I'd have the biggest mafia boner reading what you wrote here. Why would scum EVER stop lurking if you're flat out telling them that you wont lynch them if they don't post?

[lalaladucks]

did i just do that

ughhh

i mean to respond to those >_>

Why are people scared of rogue elements?

roentgenium??

Why am I not on the list when I had I think two post total yesterday?

well you've had some semblance of a presence today i guess? laying down a vote and stuff? jarjar can answer this

he wants to lynch lurkers so he's scum??

yes

no!
