We don't even know if voting mafia to be put in the box will help town lol

We don't even know if voting mafia to be put in the box will help town lol

We don't even know whether a scum exist here lol

Frankly unless there's strong evidence of the contrary it's probably best to just assume there is

So if we can spot a player here playing like a jester, we may assume 'putting mafia in the box doesn't help town'?

[heipizhu4]

Oh no, miss the pagetop lol

[heipizhu4]

Do you guys know similar serups concerning crazy mechanics with numbers? I couldn't come up with any.

[JasonWazza]

Maybe a certain other number (EG +1, +2, -1, -2 etc.) receives the box and gets to decide when they look in the box?

That I doubt may be the case, since there is only one Box, not one box for each boxed player (as proved by the fact that the (empty) Box already exists, and is also capitalized)

Seems weird that it's only capitalized in the one instance though (this is my paranoia kicking into overdrive)

But will also point out it is also referred to as the box each time, so yeah maybe so.

This would assume the "Mafia" have knowledge of the mechanics, and that's not necessarily true.

[heipizhu4]

Nobody (this is not a person, there is simply nobody inside of the box.

And anyone noticing the bracket is incomplete?

Hmmm, that's true. Haven't thought about that, though.

[Aliana]

Maybe there's one box that gets passed around?

I mean, if we spot a player obviously trying to be limmed they may just be an actual jester.

I realize that this game is likely whack, but if we don't want to vote for scum then it's basically not even mafia and I don't see the need to bring out that much tinfoil yet.

I don't like that the votes are with post numbers so i want to test something for the next VC.

How do we (the town) even win/lose the game if there isn't an anti-town faction opposing us?

Why don't you like it? That's a pretty common thing for mods to do.

[heipizhu4]

Because we don't know the full setup yet! Imo the scum may only appears after we put someone in the box, or the setup just can't be that annoying to deal with.

I'm a very paranoid person, and bugspray in previous games hasn't used post numbers in VC's (i checked)

Day phases last for 168 hours (seven earth spinnies). During this time all players must vote on who to put into the box.

And i'll note that the above doesn't actually say that the deadline passes when we put X people into the box

Day phases last for 168 hours (seven earth spinnies). During this time all players must vote on who to put into the box.

Elimination
- Days end early when a simple majority of players (50% of living players + 1 rounded down) vote to eliminate somebody. If a majority is not reached at deadline or if a majority of the players vote for no elimination, the day will end without an elimination. At evens, 50% is sufficient for no elimination.

Are these rules paradoxical?

[heipizhu4]

I'm going to vote for no elim after the next vc, and see if bugspray would allow this.

See, now I'm thinking that you chose the word

bracket

(which is an unusual way to refer to () marks; it would generally refer to [] or 〈〉marks) deliberately to crumb something since it is relevant in quantum physics

Ok, interesting.

[Aliana]

My brain is way too fried for this game right now (what was I thinking joining? XD) so I think I'm going to call it a night.

I can do this though.

VOTE: No Elimination

[JasonWazza]

bianco, that might be a bit paranoid, because at least as far as i know, they are all referred to as brackets at all times (at least in Australia, might be different in other versions of english)

[JasonWazza]

Actually, you know what i want to ask this, does everyone have Reality feels unstable in their role PM?

(which is an unusual way to refer to () marks; it would generally refer to [] or 〈〉marks)

Tbh, I call all these 3 'brackets'. Anyway, interesting observation.

Is the paradox in the

must

? I think "nobody" is a fine answer to "who should be put into the box?".

This is a test:

Fair. I would generally call () parenthesis or parens, but full disclosure, English is not my first language
