Webadict, have you ever kicked, planned on kicking, or even considered kicking a puppy?
Of course not. Who do you think I am, a Ne'er-Do-Well?

Confusing...
So the key here is how you get ejected.
I think we should agree on some plan, like all betting one person or something.  I don't know.

MOD: Who has the authority to decide who is ejected?  Who ejects them?

That's all I really have time for tonight. :I

At least the day won't end until we have some definite theories to test on how this works.

Seems like I'll have to make a time limit then, now won't I?

Alright then, since the issue is now being pressed...

Who do we experiment on?

I'm willing to volunteer as a guinea pig.

I'm thinking Web bummed some ideas from Argembarger's "Decisive Mafia" idea, since we can't unbet.  I'm guessing there's a predetermined list of ejections, either randomly made or influenced by the scum.

I haven't placed any bets.

Mod: Can you bet on multiple people in the same day?


The mod is encouraging us to bet.

Thus, in all probability, we should bet.

Part of me wonders if those who do not bet, or who are unable to bet, are ejected from the game.

I would prefer Org as a guinea pig, as he is doing the "I'm completely useless" dance.

I agree - If we're guineu pigging someone, then someone like Org who is less than helpful might be the best bet. Heh. Bet.

Webadict, can you tell us the odds? After all, betting isn't fun if you don't know the odds.

The odds of winning, the odds of being kicked out, the amount paid if you win, or something else?

Both, and other time.

Also, motion to remove time limit. Don't give us a time constraint in a Bastard Mod.

Should these not be related? Or are the odds at this casino non-standard?

A gambler never bets without knowing the odds!
Is the chance to payout the same for every person, and what's the payout compared to the bet amount?

You cannot remove the time limit. It would take you too long to play without it!

But the odds to win are clearly 1 in the number of players remaining, but the payout is slightly less.

The payout depends on how much money was not bet on the player that is ejected.

So... winners get money back plus...

 ( (winner's number of votes / total number of winning votes) * total value of losing bets )

Correct?  Possibly minus something for the house?


Does the house always win?


I'm thinking Org is a safe bet.

Err... What?

You win your share of the money if you win. Good enough?
