Law appears to be actively attempting to prevent us from abusing the realvote/visiblevote posting mechanic.Kast wrote: We could have each player unvote, request a vote count (check if the unvote results in a lynch), then revote and in that manner determine if anyone in particular has a zero/negative vote. There is danger in doing this that we may reveal double voters, or potentially reveal powerful townies whose power roles are balanced by not having a vote.
Here are the players that aren't currently voting ThAdmiral.
WeyounsLastClone-- Voting for someone else (please switch)
killa seven-- typical non-participatory gameplay
ZEEnon-- Not participating (and complains when he gets voted because he says he's V/LA?)
ThAdmiral-- Self-Voting is in style these days, I swear!
semioldguy-- hmmm...
millar13-- Hell, you've given up the cow already, help us out and vote your buddy off.
The one that I'm honestly very surprised hasn't helped out with this wagon is semioldguy, who appears to have ignored this topic entirely and stayed non-voting. I had a townish read on him, but now I'm confused by his sidelining.Men's evil manners live in brass; their virtues we write in water.-

Ok for my side question, but that doesn't answer my primary question.Empking wrote:Lawrencelot wrote: and if you fakeclaim a role, don't pretend to use the exact same text as in a pm from me..
Millar's post did not claim to be the exact same text as in a pm from the mod. His post does not look like anattemptat an exact quote. In fact, his childish attempt to hide his role name indicates that he does not want to directly quote even something that he would have permission to do.
@Mora-
Yeah, but I figure it doesn't hurt to ask.
@Mod-
Actually to clarify based on Mora's post, would you consider it an abuse of the game mechanics if we try to use the vote counts to determine the number of votes each player has?
This goes for both trying to find out using the real vote count, but also trying to find out by seeing what is sufficient to lynch ThAdmiral
You can try whatever you want, I'll just try to make sure the game isn't ruined .-

Well, I guess it's a bit pointless with my lonely vote on millar and ThAdmiral not coming back to post. I think millar proved himself to be scum. Also ZEEnon really needs to post something. But for the progress of the game I supposeunvote. Vote: ThAdmiral.is the best.
Mod: not counted, there are enough votes for a lynch"I wish you hadn't done that."-

actually don't, we want info on how many votes are counted, so if we can attain a lynch but nothing more, it will give us information.Show"either he's scum and yay 1 less scum, or he's town and yay 1 less zwetschenwasser. " ~Moratorium

I have an idea.
Since we have a lot of consensus against Admiral, what about if we do something to know how many votes we really have.
What about if we massively unvote and then revote massively again in a revealing number of iterations, everytime triggering the real votecount when we reach the amount of votes needed to lynch Admiral?Call me Tajo.

No.
I propose abusing rule 17, the bolded part.
17) The votes of some roles are worth more than other’s votes, so the day might end while it may seem that not enough votes are on one person (or the day doesn’t end while it seems someone has enough votes).Therefore, there will be a difference between a visible votecount and a real votecount. I will not show the real votecount until either of the votecounts has more than half of all votes on one person.
If we massively unvote and then reorder our votes in a way that we can infer how our votes work, then I think we can have some valuable information.
But me thinks its too late since admiral was at L-3 in the last real votecount, before ortolan, Mora, millar and WLC voted him.
Just in case.Unvote.
It doesnt matter since we can test it tomorrow with millar.Call me Tajo.
