Open 770: Monty Hall Mafia (Game Over)

[PenguinPower]

[PenguinPower]

it was you or penguin and.... the second best bird is more of a personal choice..

[PenguinPower]

There's too many birds in this game.

[PenguinPower]

Gamma at least is a rock. Possibly an island.

Two things that birds...wait...no...I'm not going there.

[PenguinPower]

I can always count on you.

[PenguinPower]

I would kill penguin then duck as well. Good thoughts, so I'm going to steal them.

[PenguinPower]

Lovebird > you/duck

[PenguinPower]

Moving sucks.

[PenguinPower]

[PenguinPower]

Well - I guess I won't kill Lovebird if she doesn't come back. Duck it is then.

[PenguinPower]

Er....hypothetically speaking ofc.

[PenguinPower]

I'm certain I have no idea what you are speaking of, good sir.

[PenguinPower]

I have reason not to protect but only because scum!Jinglejangle made me doubt my own cop inno recently.

So...admittedly not a good one and I’m fine with it.

[PenguinPower]

[PenguinPower]

[PenguinPower]

[PenguinPower]

Pre-game, the mafia must submit a kill list of all town players. They may update this kill list at any point during the game.

[PenguinPower]

Oooh - that was sweet.

[PenguinPower]

No I'm pinging your activity to try shenanigans
VOTE: the worst
I am pretty sure the revelation that the list can be moved mean if 1 of the mafia are active they can dilute the Monty Hall information element out of the setup. I'm not sure if I'm counting it wrong, but I'm 90% sure, it's hard because MH is a paradox

please lolhammer one of the more active players with me, the worst seems like the best target. We get at least a little info with respect to slower people like Bingle and pp

gogogo

I’m slow?

[PenguinPower]

also i'll spam post because both bingle and pp would put off reading the thread longer if it seems like there's more to have to read

not salamence though I think he'd eat that ish up

I don’t think you know me very well.

[PenguinPower]

I don’t wanna

[PenguinPower]

VOTE: duckling

[PenguinPower]

wait the mod probably has "I won't honor nicknames" in the ruleset so that's fakevoting?

Just says not to test their willingness to count a vote so one could infer nicknames count.

[PenguinPower]

What a strange target.

[PenguinPower]

Us getting poison makes me think PP is scum.

? why...

[PenguinPower]

What was the unstrange target for an NK in this list?

Pretty much anyone other than the hydra.

[PenguinPower]

my vanity is flaring up so i'm just gonna get this off my chest

was i actually protected there?

Do you think Nu Ubers would have been anyone's first choice for a kill?

[PenguinPower]

That's not really an answer - and you definitely wouldn't have been my first choice.

[PenguinPower]

Why do you think I have a grudge? I don't even know you.

[PenguinPower]

My stance to any opinions on my guestimations on PP's characteristics is "stand corrected" btw. Mostly inferences about "average players" and how threadcheck frequency relates to post frequency.
Or worse underestimating his post frequency due to the length of his posts

Hopefully if I call PP "not a wallposter" that's not a mischaracterization

I'm going to start wallposting now.

[PenguinPower]

yes tbh

[PenguinPower]

That doesn’t mean multiple. It means the first one to reach the most votes.

[PenguinPower]

^
Typically ime.

[PenguinPower]

If you want to go definition based: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plurality_(voting)

[PenguinPower]

The Penguin agreed it was also the 3 of us.

With the caveat that duckie could be scum but my radar hasn't gone off yet. Wish I had a vig shot.

[PenguinPower]

Elsa posting pg8 struck me as really survivalistic/blending in mindset. I'm really surprised no one else is seeing this?

Not really.

[PenguinPower]

Your backtrack is noted and appreciated. But thanks for not following Ducky onto me. That makes reading you separately WAY easier.

I couldn't pass up a chance to mirror post duck, especially when it mostly lined up with my thoughts.

[PenguinPower]

[PenguinPower]

[PenguinPower]

VOTE: Chemist

[PenguinPower]

Oooh - spicy. Bingle rolled scum.

gj duck.

[PenguinPower]

What a great mod.

[PenguinPower]

Hi, Bingle. You seem to have a different username and avatar today.

[PenguinPower]

@mod: V/LA through Sunday

[PenguinPower]

You're typing a lot of words for not being available, Bingle.

[PenguinPower]

I got 8-Ball vibes from his last post tbh.

[PenguinPower]

I'm also getting not mafia vibes on myself nice

Sorry - are you Bingle or Not_Mafia now? You're starting to confuse me with your different personalities.

[PenguinPower]

The last time I played with scum!chemist offsite he was also run up d1 and he actually reacted to it there - he/his hydra partner were like, playing it cool but their posts where infused with this unspoken panic if that makes sense?

Seems like something one would learn from and not repeat.

[PenguinPower]

PP update me on your Elsa read please?

I still don't get scummy vibes.

[PenguinPower]

Bingle, presuming you townread yourself, you have 5 townreads. It's logically consistent that you voted the player you don't townread. But I'm a little bit concerned about the cognitive consistency in calling me "probably town" if I'm the only player who both hasn't townslipped and isn't a flightless bird.
I was townreading you earlier, help me with how this isn't a perspective slip

I mean he said “potential townslips” which has the same implications as “probably town”

Hi, Bingle. You seem to have a different username and avatar today.

Chemist1422 is a distant descendant of Bungle, Generations of tweaks to the original model, but they can't shake the biological impulse to respond to the name Bingle.

[PenguinPower]

[PenguinPower]

Chemist, are you also Nona?

[PenguinPower]

hi

[PenguinPower]

So, by omission, you

are

scum. Good to know.

VOTE: Nona

[PenguinPower]

for a flightless bird, that's a bit flighty

VOTE: penguin

[PenguinPower]

As opposed to the OMGUS you're comfortable with.

Buzzword Theatre!

[PenguinPower]

I don't subscribe to that belief.

[PenguinPower]

But my opinion on the original Bingle wasn't that strong tbh

[PenguinPower]

[PenguinPower]

To wolfy to be a wolf.

[PenguinPower]

NOOOOOOOOO! I forgot the other "o" and the edit button is screaming at me to click it...

[PenguinPower]

grammar ftl

[PenguinPower]

Oooh. Hammer time.

Not really scum reading EJ though.

[PenguinPower]

PP I think you've been townbloccing but just to kick the tires what's your favorite scumread?

Pretty stuck on the Bingle family right now.

[PenguinPower]

UNVOTE:
EJ and nona can't be scum together
If PP thinks it might be the other one
We have however many days we have to dig in

My issue with my Elsa read is that he can do this as either alignment, and when there is no third party I can accurately place him. Normally I would be fine lynching through and then focusing elsawhere, but we don't really have that luxury here.

I'm actually having a difficult time solidifying scumreads atm, and Bingle/Nona is long ago gut meta. Chemist is probably my preferred lynch.

[PenguinPower]

So what your saying is you were right the first time when we said it was Chemist/Bingle, but we all got sidetracked on me to determine my alignment first.

Fair enough.

I don't think I've ever deviated from it so

y'all

got sidetracked. I'm just here for the memes.

[PenguinPower]

Don't read fogport btw

+1

[PenguinPower]

Nona, we hardly knew ye.

[PenguinPower]

I'm not discussing my scumreads atm.

[PenguinPower]

Yeah - no.

[PenguinPower]

Actually - maybe.

[PenguinPower]

Def not voting pops.

[PenguinPower]

VOTE: Elsa

[PenguinPower]

[PenguinPower]

Why the quickhammer on the Elsa protect there duckling?

[PenguinPower]

Yeah - I can't believe the scum team poisoned me over you tbh.

[PenguinPower]

Desperado: the worst

[PenguinPower]

Well - at least you're not the IC this time.

[PenguinPower]

Pops is pinging my penguindar.

[PenguinPower]

So you think it’s a Chemist/Elsa.

[PenguinPower]

No one is voting until I say so.

I invoke my IC Penguin Power.

[PenguinPower]

You may consider me as such.

[PenguinPower]

Emperor is above Queen. No voting.

[PenguinPower]

Yes, tbh.

[PenguinPower]

I have one. I'm going to wait to share.

[PenguinPower]

Unless one of you two is scum, I agree.

Begs the question: Why would I have been at the top of the list?

[PenguinPower]

honestly i'm basically cleared via another bird being poisoned.

Hmm...

[PenguinPower]

[PenguinPower]

Bllregfhhhh I'm tryinggg

This is how you obvtown.

[PenguinPower]

And, that is how you get a pagetop.

[PenguinPower]

Pengu vote someone already so I don't have to take responsibility if we lose.

That's not how this is going to work. I'm still trying to figure out how to minimize my responsibility.

[PenguinPower]

Much dramas but ok.

[PenguinPower]

I’m going on a weekend trip in the morning. If you haven’t read and done something by then I’m voting you.

[PenguinPower]

You disagree, duck?

[PenguinPower]

VOTE: tw

my head hurts and I’m not even supposed to be on my phone but I hate this feeling of being useless

I skimmed his ISO and didn’t like his early tone with stuff like “maybe I was protected but it’s only a theory”, it felt like subtle LAMIST posts

So...you didn't crossvote duck previously because you haven't read, but you cross vote duck now because you...still haven't read?

[PenguinPower]

I'm glad we agree.

[PenguinPower]

I've forsaken my birdness for "destruction" for the next couple of months if that makes you feel any better.

[PenguinPower]

I mean - I have the power to change my username, so...

[PenguinPower]

To your actual question though...no. I'm still waiting for you all to do your thing.

[PenguinPower]

Increases likelihood of you/chemist though.

p-edit

Oh...I'm still around. I just wanted to pressure Chemist to do something.

[PenguinPower]

See, this is where I get to yell at everyone who was town, and I say that I was right and you were all wrong.

[PenguinPower]

I'm going to find some way to give myself a permanent desperado against the duck.

[PenguinPower]

Remember when I said pops was scum?

Pepperidge Farms remembers.

[PenguinPower]

No - I said I wanted to pressure Chem to do something.

[PenguinPower]

I don't feel like Penguin was decided. Mostly anxious about chem's low content level.

^
yes

[PenguinPower]

Well I pressured him to death. It was very effective.

Hmm...

[PenguinPower]

I think we can all agree that the goat wins this game in the end.

gj goat.

[PenguinPower]

Def not voting pops.

Pops is pinging my penguindar.

[PenguinPower]

I said do something, not vote Duck with the same reasoning that you used previously to explain why you weren't voting Duck.

tbf I wasn't voting Duck first though because I still feel bad about mis-desperadoing him.

[PenguinPower]

No worries, Bingle. Goat won.
