Warbears: The Forum Game™ – GAME THREAD

I'll chime in. I am voting reject, because of 2 reasons:

1. I suspect Globox is a spy because of his vote to approve the first mission. Therefore, his team cannot be trusted, but those he picked are unlikely to be spies.

2. If he is actually innocent, then his choice of semi-random members is statistically very likely to contain a spy.

Funnily enough, while Jurgen and Tango argue against each other, both use statistics at one point or another to support themselves. I'm still unsure whose side to take, and honestly, it's not impossible both are civvies/spies!

I voted to reject this team after reading Jurgen's post when he made it yesterday. Just finding the time to put my take on things.

I agree with what Jurgen says, that probability suggests the team is way more likely to fail than it is to success. The difference between Jurgen's numbers and Tango's numbers is that it felt to me that Jurgen was basing his numbers off of something, instead of Tango basing something off of his numbers. (Sorry if that's a little confusing.)

Frankly, I don't care for the numbers. I feel that they're a nuisance in the game because it kind of objects to playing as a person. As if that person is a robot; you can't then find out about their personality to state your suspicion because, well, they don't have any personality. Sure, the numbers can be helpful but I'd suggest using them a little less. Everything seems negative with them around and I doubt the town(non-spies? whatever we're calling them) are going to have much morale about winning with that around. People should be sure of themselves and learn to trust others, not numbers and then have no trust in anything because of it.

I can see why Tango sees me as suspicious, I guess probably the way I have played so far is. But that's really just because at first I didn't know what I was doing (still don't, not really), and that I've been very busy in real to have a lot of time for other things. I'm still trying to put the effort in, nevertheless.

However, though, I don't agree with the suspicion on Globox. Or at least I don't suspect him. He chose to choose a team of people who hadn't already been on a mission, but that's what other people were doing, too and on the first teams to be chosen I think this is a good idea to see where peoples credibility's lie. But, that's probably the first two teams in my opinion.

Furthermore, it may be worth pointing out that I really doubt that Knyh would place all of the spies on one side of the list. They're going to be spread out.

Roles and the Mission Leader order were both randomised I did not change anything about them. There is therefore equal chance of spies being spread out or in a group on that list. There should not be anything to go on from that.

I agree with Jurgen, I am voting reject on this mission too.

I pick my mission next so that also factors into my decision.

Globox acted quickly choosing a team. Obviously choosing himself, he also picked three randomly who had yet to be on a mission. This lead to immediate backlash and Math Corner brought out a new book "Seven Reasons Why Statistically This Is Dumb", followed by a hundred revisions to the book to make it less dumb because nobody really understands statistics fully, right? Anyway, the vote came and the team got soundly rejected. Some scrubs didn't vote (probably because nobody poked them to make sure they were awake) so the rest of the group took their votes as a rejection.

THE REJECTION COUNTER HAS INCREASED TO TWO

Gamecard:

(Ruined Bar kindly donated by Rojoco, Avatars acquired by Marshall <3)

Your mission leader is Takeoshi Theboyo. They must select FOUR people for this mission. The deadline for selection is Tuesday 20th February, 23:59 GMT.

casual reminder you can discuss your proposed team before confirming them as your selection and you probably want to do that at some point before the rejection counter hits five....

So, since random chance isn't a good enough reason, Takeoshi, as our latest team leader, who are you considering to take on the team, and why?
