EscapeRemastered Mafia: Economy of Madness [Day 3]

[Alisha]

I'm curious to see what comes out of the black market - they're probably both scum so I don't see what's wrong with killing twg first as long as none of you sheeple fall for notty's mind games

you’re living tonight dw

Funny story apparently I pulled an Inf and misunderstood my role. I don't get a coin for every item that I win from an auction, I get a coin for every item that is won by anyone in any auction (including the black market). I assumed I had access to the black market since I thought it said I could also gain 1 coin if I won an item there, but I can gain 1 coin if anyone gets an item there so it doesn't imply I have access and I don't. I just know about its existence and gain a coin if anyone buys something.

I've evolved into essentially just a decently stronger version of Aqua which makes me a bit suspicious but Aqua is decently towntelling. @TheWeakGuy48_ do you buy the poison from the Black Market then?

how?

how convenient!!!

or a lie if you think about it

it could be a lie yes, im just saying what notty said

 

[Nottykitten]

how convenient!!!

One might say unlikely

 

[Alisha]

it could be a lie yes, im just saying what notty said

why did you rate me confusing then

 

[Infected_alien8_]

why did you rate me confusing then

because you acted like i was assuming notty was telling the truth by saying 'it could be a lie if you think about it' and that confused me

 

[Alisha]

oh that makes sense, thanks

 

[Infected_alien8_]

oh that makes sense, thanks

no problem

 

[Nottykitten]

how?

Some sentences have double meanings is all I can really say without doing what Inf did

at first i didnt believe this at all
but now i think about it nottys pm saying they cant gain coins day 0 makes essentially 0 sense unless the black market is available day 0 which it very well might be since how would anyone of us know!
but wait
why is the black market an auction at all if apparently no town people have access to it anymore
why would the mafia not just bid 1 coin for every item
surely it would work in the same way twg's does (set prices)
im back to not believing
im sorry notty but unless sessy magically swoops in to save you with their claim youre dead <3

 

[Aqua]

If it turns out y'all are telling the truth Timdood3 really needs to work on his articulation. ?

 

[Nottykitten]

Ya but I can't explain how I misread it without directly quoting the sentence.

 

[Infected_alien8_]

thats fine it wont suddenly make all your out of nowhere assumptions make you anymore townie this game anyways

 

[Mooglie]

(and if notty is telling the truth and buying items for set prices counts as 'winning at auction' then i take 0 responsibility and blame tim)

 

[Aqua]

but now i think about it nottys pm saying they cant gain coins day 0 makes essentially 0 sense unless the black market is available day 0 which it very well might be since how would anyone of us know!

you know she just stole this from my claim right, I start with 3 coins because auction starts from day 1+

 

[Nottykitten]

why is the black market an auction at all if apparently no town people have access to it anymore
why would the mafia not just bid 1 coin for every item

This is a good point, I'd surely lynch me too if it wasn't for the fact that TheWeakGuy48_ is claiming to be able to buy something from a third store that is not the regular auction or the Black market

(and if notty is telling the truth and buying items for set prices counts as 'winning at auction' then i take 0 responsibility and blame tim)

It's less 'winning an auction' and more obtaining an item from it

 

[Infected_alien8_]

yes but the black market wouldnt be an 'auction' it would be a shop

 

[Infected_alien8_]

also this is undoubtedly going to be an unpopular opinion but my intuition still says twg is more likely to be town than scum

 

[Nottykitten]

yes but the black market wouldnt be an 'auction' it would be a shop

You're not wrong and it never said it was. Good thing TheWeakGuy48_ will be forced to claim they have access to the black market or after I get lynched their claim is essentially proven to be nonsense

 

[Mooglie]

You're not wrong and it never said it was.

I get a coin for every item that is won by anyone in any auction (including the black market)

 

[Nottykitten]

Ya I said it was but my role never did I just assumed wrongly since im not the best mafia player unlike your grace

 

[Nottykitten]

So those who want to lynch me answer me this. If Weak confirms they buy from the Black Market does this change anything?

And if they say no and when I die and it proves a Black Market exists would you be very suspicious of Weak for having access to a third auction/shop?

 

[Mooglie]

Ya I said it was but my role never did I just assumed wrongly since im not the best mafia player unlike your grace

but in the same post where you just said that you never said it was you also said

It's less 'winning an auction' and more obtaining an item from it

which means youre still calling black market an auction

 

[Nottykitten]

but in the same post where you just said that you never said it was you also said

I think you're misreading what I said, I said 'it' not 'I'
