No, its a fact that you have been mostly slanking and now you are speaking up on who to vote and trying to guide the thread now that wilgy is on the chopping block

Its my opinion that its wolfy behaviour

Wilgy has nothing to do with why I am speaking up now. It just happens to be something I see as I can finally make it back into this game.

I admit that I've been slanking, but that's mostly because I'm hosting a game and I mean to actually follow it closely, so that leaves little time to read here.

No lie, this game has been Mount Threadspewvius since it started.

I'm also crazy busy at work, which cuts into my ability to keep up. It just RL teaching me not to get involved with the things I love.

And, as always, my wife doesn't know I'm part of this game, so that adds a few wrinkles to the mix.

Working off of this, I think that technically DrWilgy should actually have 5 votes- or are votes cast incorrectly still dismissed? Very confusing.

Either way, I feel like Wilgy is actually a player in the game, so I'm not inclined to chop him until we lose more NPC's. I also get genuine player equity from Neon, Ranmilla, Neon, and possibly nutella and Hally too. It's a lot of threadspew though, so I losing this next batch of NPC's should help direct my ISO work. I really do not feel motivated to ISO 37 people when 20 of them don't matter.

This server has become bloated. Reality is dissolving under the weight of these ever expanding volumes. We must do a database cleanse.

At the end of the day. After the daily elimination is flipped. Half of the remaining NPCs will be randomly removed from the game.

Well this is just sending mixed messages. Hopefully our intrepid host will clarify.

But I do hope this latest iteration of the purge explanation is the right one. Deathdeathdeathdeathdeath!

Weeding out the Fakey McFakersons that have been deleted from the game so far yields the following:

That's 37 total participants left, and Mac said in the OP that there are only 17 real players in the game. There are 4 mafia and 13 town, so we're looking at 13v4 and another fake 20 knuckleheads just clowning around.

@MacDougall The OP content says:

5. At the end of day 3 I will kill exactly 50% of the NPC population of the game at random, unless more than 50% of them were already killed via modkill and/or threadkill.

For clarification's sake, this means that you won't be killing half of the 20 NPC's still alive in the game right now, but rather just trimming out enough of the remaining NPC's so that only have of the NPC's from the start of the game are still in the mix?

If that is correct, then we have already gotten rid of 12 NPC's, meaning that there were 32 in the game total, so we're only go to cut out a slim handful of them at the end of the day since half of 32 is 16 and we're at 20.

Any chance I can bribe our host into cutting the list of NPC's active right now by half instead?

Winding down after an 11-hour day at work and a chop post in the game I'm hosting. I will try to catch up tomorrow night. I can't wait for the purge. Free us of some of this needless thread spew!

As stated earlier, votes will only be counted from day 2 onwards if the player's name is spelled correctly. Any intentional posting for non players and inanimate objects will result in your removal from the game.

Woof. I’ve never known Mac to be so nit-picky. Clearly this means those who voted for’Guillo’ are saboteurs and must die!

santygrass wrote: ↑Tue Dec 06, 2022 7:41 pm Lets make Guillotine and guillo competing wagons hmmyes

Wow, so actually Guillotine is tied for the lead right now. Good to know.

Worthless day for me IRL. I will have to poke around a bit after I write a post for the game I am hosting.

Thank you for the updated vote count.

santygrass wrote: ↑Mon Dec 05, 2022 11:35 pm And also kinda sets the tone for the real mafia players to just not take that approach making things more readable in the purge hopefully

When the purge arrives, we'll have a clearer picture of who is actually playing this game. I look forward to it. Too many people and too many posts right now.

Well that was a curious kill choice.

Whoops. Upon further review, I realize that my vote did not count. A lot of votes did not count. Let me fix that:

Up-to-Date Vote Count for Votes Cast Correctly:

Wishing upon the first star you see at night is a bad idea. The first thing most people see in the night sky is likely to be a planet instead of a star.

Wake me up before you go-go.

Worrisome fact: all the vote counts have been bogus so far, because I don't think anybody has recorded my vote for Golden the Coward. Shameful stuff. I'm finishing my ISO list, so maybe I'll work on the ACTUAL vote count next.

Wasting a post to get us to the next page.

Way cool. Jesus was way cool.

Went through the first 500 posts of the game and came up with the following participant list. ISO links as well for as many as I could get through before needing to leave now for my daughter's basketball practice. Please someone work through the member list and add the rest of the links or I can do it when I get home. I think there are a few additional people in the game beyond this list, so add to it if you're able.

Won’t have much time for this game this weekend, so I’m chancing it on not getting chopped. The thread is already too burdensome for a full re-read too. I’ll just have to pick an arbitrary point each time I can check in and try to live in the present. Not ideal, but necessary.

Sure just vote WindwardAway for me

Why?

Really? What is the point of that question if you're not going to read the game? Its obvious that I want them dead, if I want them dead I must think they are a wolf or want to out myself killing a town or just NPC on NPC violence. Isnt it straight forward? You can read my ISO for a breakdown.

That just seems... strange to ask in that way. If you were hoping I would break it down bad luck.

Maybe the answer is needlessly confrontational but I dont want to rewrite it at this point

Well, if you’re not going to give me the Cliffs Notes version of why, then I really can’t be bothered to hitch up to your wagon. This is mafia, not the Affordable Care Act.
