Buyers your question is "How many letters long is your word?"

Alternately if you feel that one is too revealing "Do you have a word ?"

I've been thinking about the role of alliances in the game. The tricky point is that like survivor, nobody wants to put themselves at an equal chance of winning with somebody else. People probably will want to manoeuvre on top. A large alliance that everybody was very committed to could give everybody in it an equal shot at winning but also isn't very realistic. Coordinating who talks to who also feels important, you wouldn't want to waste your choice on somebody who chose you. As for voting the two most obvious schools of thought to me are the eliminate presumed favourites or eliminate the weaker links to ensure the game is pure and not won through sandbagging. I'm not really sure which of those I prefer. I know Winvirus is coming hot off a Genius win and all but I can't say I'd be a fan of any game where the final group is whatever players were deemed weakest.

Personally I'm trying to figure out if I should use my code piece as a bargaining chip or if I should create an elaborate series of games, puzzles and codes that would reveal my segment if you beat them all.

I believe the encrypted messages thing meant like, no posting in code and then giving somebody else a way to break the code.

It would be interesting if everybody divided up into groups of 3. Three is an easy alliance number because if coordinate communication then you can end up talking to both of the people in your alliance that aren't you.

Thanatosian posted:I figure Bryers is more likely to pick up more allies this round. I was thinking about that. Winv and him already have The De Facto Alliance and he's implied merk will want to be part of it and PoP seems to like the idea as well.

What I specifically had a problem with was the idea that people should follow either you or byers. I don't think it's something either of you directly said but it's what I felt coming across. Gave me a very two party system vibe. More importantly it was ok when I did it because I'm me.

Power of Pecota posted:Following Byers' proposition for voting gives everyone a chance to play, following Somber's doesn't. Yeah but that's kind of what I was irritated about. It's not like byers and Somber have defined the only methods in which we can play. And it's not a with us or against us situation. Also as discussed earlier, they have defined the same method but with different orders.

I mean like Byers proposal was like eliminate the lurkers and jokers then eliminate the strong. The first part is a reskinned eccogambit but the second part is the same as Somber's strategy. If there are few lurkers and jokers then it's the same as Somber's. If lurkers and jokers is more loosely defined it might become an elimination of the relatively unknown people who don't speak up as much.

I mean like all the best winning strategies will probably have "eliminate somebody perceived to be close to winning" in them because that's the kind of game this is.

Hal Incandenza posted:Yeah, I don't get it either. To be frank, I haven't really considered the best course of action, but I feel like I would work with literally anyone at this point, and the only reason I would have to vote someone out wold be if I thought they were somehow super good at puzzles and wouldn't ever have any interest in working with me. I don't know that I support any of these proposed schemes. This is the Undecided Manifesto

I feel like Merk is a couple of different factions can get behind here. He's a strong player, if that's important to you. He's not added any information if that's important to you. He's certainly not as available as the other players are. ##vote Merk
