Derps Grand Idea - Day Four (10/18)

@Diggity69 Are you going to mention your redcheck or not?

hmmm

you may get a gift on n3

you fool
You don’t even understand who the fuck you’re dealing with. I have advanced degrees in statistics and computer science and I’ve created a simple program with an advanced algorithm that I’ve been working on for years. I have read and tracked over 600 forum mafia games, recording every fencesit, every association, every scumtell. I have over 50 documented, specific forms and versions of scumtells and towntells, and at this point I can just skim a thread and put it into my machine. I have reduced the cacophonous lies of forum mafia into a pure, beautiful mathematical formula, and it’s led me to literal hundreds of wins.

Why do I think you’re scum? I don’t deign to think about you myself. Instead, I thought about how to create a program to know mathematically whether you are scum. I don’t need to think about you, because my algorithm has determined that you’re scum to an 87% certainty. You cannot beat those numbers at this stage in the game. We’re talking about a mere 13% chance that you’re a town member so monumentally bad at this game that you fooled a computer program that has successfully identified over 500 unique mafia players as scum with over 96% accuracy. Your only defense, in other words, is that you are so naturally scummy that you are an outlier.

Whether you’re town or mafia, this is a message from mathematics – you are bad at this game. You have played so scummy that a perfectly objective process has labeled you as scum. Whether that makes you bad at playing your specific rolecard or bad in general, there is no question that behaving like scum means you have not performed well. Consider this a welcome wakeup call, as hundreds have before you: If a player decides you’re scum, it’s possible you just got unlucky, but if a computer program can be that certain of your alignment, there are some serious holes in your game, because it means you’re scum in an objective sense, rather than a subjective one. For that reason, I’m willing to roll that die and take that 13% risk, because even if there’s a small chance you might be town, there’s not even a remote chance that you’re good

You’ve done very little solving the entire game, instead deferring to mechanics and the most barebones of reads (of which Esquid very likely could have been coached but it was ignored, so there’s some plausibility that it’s TMI)
You constantly complained about how nothing was going on yesterday but did nothing to remedy the problem

i tried time and time again but nothing stuck

i can quote all of my spice-creation attempts but there were at least 4 or 5 that petered out

and i would have made reads and shit but i thought those were being discouraged due to confirmation bias

None of which actually tried to solve the game
You didn’t provoke people to start posting with your attempts to spice the game up
You haven’t been reading people worth shit

You’re top poster, and you aren’t trying

Terrible excuse

@Diggity69 if you have a redcheck, say so
If you don’t, say so

Lack of clarity regarding the matter isn’t helping anyone

my WiM has been low this game but i’ve decided to cruise d1 more while also trying to make spice

my d2 has been lackluster really only due to a lack of content while i am awake.

@Mistyx
What are you thoughts on game and where do you think scum are

scum are probably in scum chat :>

anyway on a serious note I have not been that good at absorbing information so I’ll have to reread

call it a bad excuse but it is my reason.

if you want me to make reads then i will but you posted that we shouldn’t be posting reads after a certain point and i didn’t feel like doing too many reads anyways so i didn’t really argue
