Long Game 92: Process of Elimination
DrakeMarshall replied to Kasimir's topic in Sanderson Elimination
I don't really understand it either, honestly. Just that e!Steel seemed likely to me despite the oddness. I'm also surprised neither me nor Orlok was blocked last night, although that might be bc Sart or Steel was our e!Roleblocker. ...is it possible that the elims wanted to troll Randby N4, but somehow didn't get the order in? This might honestly be our best explanation at this point. Or... What if their roleblocker was already dead? Say you are the elims and you have no roleblocker on N4. This is a tight spot to be in. You could troll the scanner, but unless you could deal with the meme makers, it would be pointless. So maybe e!Fadran trolls Araris, claims to have been roleblocked, and calls it a day? That might be the best way they could do damage control. That would have a decent chance of throwing doubt on the redscan, as evidenced by the fact that it was doubted by people. Alternatively: <foil>What if Meme Makers just aren't a real role? I mean, there are obvious advantages to inventing such a role for the elims, getting to tell the village when to believe or not to believe that a person was trolled... And anyways, what does any of that role have to do with "meme making" the other role names feel like they make more sense than this one. This implies v!Steel and an evil team that in the very least includes (Araris, Biplet, Wizard) in addition to (Tani, Sart). Edit: This tinfoilland also pretty much requires evil!Orlok.</foil>- 3885 replies

When did I say I wouldn't listen if people gave advice about who they thought I should target at night?! Have you, at any point, tried to weigh in and give me advice about who to shoot? If you sincerely wanted input on who I targeted, then how come you never put in the effort to come up with suggestions during the night? This doesn't just go for you, it goes for everyone else too: literally the only requests I got for who to shoot last night was that I should shoot myself, and you'll all have to forgive me for making the executive decision that this was a stupid idea from my vantage (edit: Tbf, Aman did do some analysis with me last night, and it remains to be seen whether going after a PM Spider would have been the right decision) But it is particularly relevant in your case, because you're kicking up a fuss about a lack of oversight without previously having attempted to engage in my CS decision-making process in any way I can remember. Hmm. I think Steel and Sart are both evil from the evidence, and I don't think a 6-elim team would be likely if the elims had a coinshot. Apart from that, do you think e!Stick/Drake takes down Tani, and then follows it up with being the first vote on the huge e!Steel train, and then follows it up with immediately voting for e!Sart following his claim and pointing out why that claim is fake? It already is a bit of a party I voted on page 2 sorry Archer but I do currently think the PoE from Orlok's Tie Guy scan points your way unless e!Silhouette maybe Vote Tally (I think) Archer (3): Amanuensis, Araris Valerian, DrakeMarshall DrakeMarshall (1): Archer- 3885 replies

No I would not agree I don’t think would not voting from here on out give us a better chance at winning? the only way the bots will stop coming is if we do something about it! they aren’t gonna stop plaguing the shard on their own now will they i dont understand how disarming the village of kills near the end of the game could be a good thing anyway if i gave my word to not seek would village!you even believe me? if you are actually village and i promised “yo im totally a pacifist for real this time” would you actually be satisfied by that? X (doubt) so then why are you asking hmmmm >:P edit: like, idk, you can tell me where my reasoning breaks down if you can, but: case 1, your a villager and think im an elim, but then if im an elim i wont keep my word so its odd to ask for it case 2, your an elim and know im village, and are worried that if i continue shooting the elims will lose faster this is what it looks like to me edit2: like if you just want to say you think im an elim and that you want to vote me out, that's fine, the part that rubs me the wrong way is where it feels like you are trying to leverage the pressure of being voted or sussed or whatever into pressuring me not to shoot anyone that does not feel like it comes from a village mindset- 3885 replies

Long Game 92: Process of Elimination
DrakeMarshall replied to Kasimir's topic in Sanderson Elimination
i am questioning whether i should have left my order on JNV instead of switching to TJ bro it does make logical sense!! all of this "the elims would never do X" is sheer IKYK, if they think you'd think they'd never do X then maybe they will do X ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ if you ignore all that and look at the way the actual claims lined up, Steel was a dubious individual, and that's before he got scanned as an elim or e!Sart tried to save him anyways i want to assert that unless you think Stick shoots e!Tani and then I go as hard as I did after both e!Steel and e!Sart, i am indeed village this game is utter madness yes :'( the lack of alignment flips hurts on a spiritual level but we do what we can we do what we can agree, I think knowing e!Steel with a pretty high certainty improves v!Fadran and v!Biplet confidences both Sart and Archer don't have the same role but pretty sure thats already been pointed out However, this is still a valid point you're making I think? Sart and Archer had similar roles seemingly, and do we think the elim team had 2 similar roles that do the same thing? we don't really know anything solid that much about Sart's power tho so that makes all of this kinda murky oh I'm pushing towards the end alright that much is true no matter what stay tuned to find out which side im playing for assuming you dont already know which side im playing for no but yea i dont think either me or aman is evil so im going to have to respectfully disagree with your vote bro have you met Tani- 3885 replies

That's a requirement for me being evil! I mean I don't disagree that it's sound strategy, but also, like, isn't that kinda ruthless? like unless you have somebody who volunteers on D1 of being an elim to get shot, you are basically doing a way more extreme version of bussing have i done something like that b4? well yes actually kind of, i had a special win con at the time to justify it it worked really well too but that is besides the point i wasn't part of this game on N1!!- 3885 replies

smh I just sought TJ killing and seeking are very different, the fact that TJ happens to have been DDoS'd on the same night I targeted TJ is just one of a long line of coincidences but anyways the point is the elim RBer is probably dead, one way or another My vote is pending what Orlok has to say today, probably- 3885 replies

After careful consideration, I have decided not to shoot Drake. I want you to know that I value input from each and every one of you, though. Even though I am unable to comply with some requests, it was a difficult decision to make. Tbh I'm still not sure who to hit >:| I'm leaning TJ rn since Orlok's scan result will be relevant to Biplet and JNV is seeming village but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ feels like whatever i do will probably be a miss tonight but i hope not- 3885 replies

well, a wise man once told me better late than never AFAIK these are the PM Spiders, or at least the ones that actually claimed and made PMs and such: Wizard: (+) Scanned village by Fae. Evil!Wizard requires two elim PM spiders, which is not inconceivable but less likely than other options. (-) Has at various times requested that I don't shoot specific people in our PM, namely Biplet and then Araris. Both of whom are potentially suspect at this stage. (-) Last-minute Steel vote yesterday JNV (-) Claims to have village-scanned Matrim, who made a last-minute Steel vote yesterday Archer (-) Last-minute Steel vote yesterday Fae requiescat in pace any of these could be evil tbh the "last minute vote on Steel" yesterday criteria may or may not be relevant, depending on whether Steel is village or not JNV is a slightly preferential target because there is a JNV->Matrim dependency and there seemingly has always been something more urgent than verifying it also archer is bulletproof ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ edit: "well might as well go after JNV to cover the bases" ya know this feels a bit familiar......

the sacred numbers actually agree that Bip is a bot, or at least the most likely remaining player to be one i did not expect this i think the sacred numbers might be drunk but is there something to it? imo e!Bip makes a ton of sense in a v!Steel world and very little sense in an e!Steel world, so Orlok's scan will really be helpful here- 3885 replies

Never don't gambit This was a clever little trick to pull and I only vaguely noticed in the back of my mind that it had shifted from Analyst to Vote Analyst, nicely played I told you dawg, v!Sart is total kayana I respect thinking the best of people but the timing and wording of Sart's claim raised all of my hackles even before I even thought through how the logistics didn't line up Do you subscribe to the theory that Sart was doing this on purpose to distance from Biplet, then? Because I did bring it up but I do think it's a bit tinfoily. I dunno, I might actually embrace pacifism tonight. I really don't feel confident about any shots. Who am I kidding that won't stop me from trying. As it is the night cycle, the convention is that votes cast are nominations for who we think the coinshot should shoot.

Yea but bro the last few minutes of D4 was confused Nobody knew if the tie was going through or if their vote would help or hinder it I believed my vote was helping the tie happen but I didn't really have much confidence Why, in that climate, do you go out on a limb to save the life of a confirmed eliminator?

I respect the sheer paranoia you bring to the table a village that is not constantly paranoid and willing to second-guess things is a dead village But I do not think you are right in this case. I don't understand why village!Sart would retract a vote at the last second to save the life of somebody he knew was almost certainly an elim, in order to have a highly uncertain impact on the status of the tie. And that is without getting into how not voting for anyone that cycles throws away his scan when previous cycles would require that he was actually being fairly tactical with his votes to line up scans. Idk. Like, I'm pretty sure Sart was evil, and just goofed up a little. It happens. But if he is village, or if he is evil but was deliberately falling on his sword to distance from Biplet or something, it isn't completely crazy to hedge bets by going after Biplet.- 3885 replies
