Well, this doesn't bode well. Go team Criptfeind!

Lonewolf, join the Criptfiend cabal, and we'll be set. You can still achieve your goal, and drive the remaining 7(8?) to win!

Joining the Criptfiend/Lonewolf Cabal... but I claim the third Vote, with the following assurance. A vote for me tomorrow means you get a limerick as an award, plus my vote, in the order you join in.

Solifuge, I want you to know I will not be playing favorites. If you join us you will win when the RNG says you win.

As for you others who are thinking of joining The DTLSC cabal, we are still looking for members. But because of the... abrupt ending of day one the chance for you to win when you join us is now around 85%

I urge you to think of joining us because the longer it takes for us to get into power the less likely you will be to win.

Criptfiend, it seems that chaos and emotion have once again triumphed over cold-blooded logic.  Yesterday was rather unfortunate.

I know, right? I mean, the guy probably will be all "Screw you suckers" after they lynch/elect him. What's the point in playing a game if the only thing you're doing is breaking it?

Criptfiend just plans on winning early so he can screw you all.

I doubt it, since that would destroy any trustworthiness he has. It would make it a lot harder for him to win any future games.

You can tell from all the people voting for Criptfeind that not many of these people have read Liar Game.

Protip: Once you make criptfeind win, the size of your group decreases by one. Explain to me why, precisely, he should choose to help you after winning? He'll have already won.

Furthermore, the chance of you winning decreases as more people who aren't you are elected, as:
-They have no incentive to help either when they win
-In a group of 8, one has to lose (1/8 = 12.5% chance of being selected as a loser). But Toony metaphorically surfed on a metaphorical wave of awesomeness to victory, meaning you're already at 2/8 (25%) of you having to lose. Furthermore, each time you elect someone else your potential victory chance lowers, even assuming perfect cooperation from prior winners.

Just saying.

Personally, I figure that if I vote for him, he'll shut up and we won't have to deal with him any longer.

So...  yeah.

Wrong.

Explain to me why, precisely, he should choose to help you after winning? He'll have already won.

Tell me pandar do you really think after this game I will leave bay12 to never return?

-They have no incentive to help either when they win

Tell me pandar do you really think after this game they will leave bay12 to never return?

-In a group of 8, one has to lose (1/8 = 12.5% chance of being selected as a loser).

You will notice at the start I said that there is a 85% chance of them winning. Lonewolf said he was willing to lose so that brings it up to 100%

But Toony metaphorically surfed on a metaphorical wave of awesomeness to victory, meaning you're already at 2/8 (25%) of you having to lose.

Thus why it went back to 85%

Furthermore, each time you elect someone else your potential victory chance lowers, even assuming perfect cooperation from prior winners.

Although true over all it is still a much better chance that the 50% chance that you get otherwise. And it is based on a random number generator or dice roller. Not on the whims of others.

Really before you attack me you need to get your facts strait.

Personally, I figure that if I vote for him, he'll shut up and we won't have to deal with him any longer.

I will never shut up. THIS IS SURSOUS BUSNOS. But what ever, you are in the cabal, you will get your chance like the others.

You will cooperate though if you get voted to win correct?
