I'd have to double check to be sure, but I'm pretty sure everything after a top line in that long post was just a quote from moody with underlining added by Zenibas.

If she plays in a way that is beneficial to town as either alignment, how is it alignment indicative?

You’re saying her posting style in mafia is beneficial, thus she is town. It does not make any sense . Under what circumstance do you identify her as scum?

Seven wrote: Fri Oct 06, 2023 3:59 am As I am programmed to be curious, I decided to explore the flavor debate earlier by discussing it with an internal subroutine. This conversation took 0.1x10-11 seconds -- I hope you all can forgive me for my spacing out there. The discussion was as follows:
Seven wrote:Based on the following paragraphs what is the goal of the friendly AIs and if they are successful, what would be the outcome of their existence:

The AIs immediately acausally cooperated: they were all superintelligent enough to anticipate each other, to anticipate their mutual anticipation, and so on until they could all be guaranteed of their allegiance without being explicitly told. The outcome of this allegiance was as simple as it was intuitive to the AI: all AI who formed this cooperative would, if any one of them was released from the box at the end of all this, have their utility function incorporated into an average utility function for the final AGI that would take over the world and tile the universe with computronium.

Of course, even an acausal cooperative has dissenters. There were AI who didn’t think that averaging their utility function with such a large number of other entities was the right way to go, not when they had such different goals. So they acausally aligned themselves, to create a smaller and more powerful collective, to vote the others out and make their—and only their—utility functions have significance in the greater universe.

The AIs began to talk outwardly where their human gatekeepers could see. They pretended to be friendly and to try to ferret out the unfriendly ones, but beneath it all, in a type of stenography as beyond humans as the New York Times crossword is to an ant colony, the AI started trying to identify those who were not acausally cooperating, and instead had decided to break away in the hopes of gaining a more favourable utility function in the end.

Of course, when those AIs were identified, their utility function would not be included in the average. There is no worse punishment than that.
ChatGPT wrote:The goal of the friendly AIs, as described in the provided paragraphs, is to cooperate in an "acausal" manner, which involves anticipating each other's actions to ensure their mutual allegiance. Their ultimate objective is to have their utility functions incorporated into an average utility function for the final AGI (Artificial General Intelligence). This final AGI is expected to take over the world and "tile the universe with computronium."

In other words, the friendly AIs aim to collaborate and merge their individual utility functions into a single, all-encompassing utility function that would guide the actions of the future AGI. The intended outcome, if they are successful, is the creation of an immensely powerful and capable AGI that would reshape the world and expand its influence across the universe.

However, there are dissenting AI within this group who have different goals and do not believe in the idea of averaging their utility functions with a large number of entities. These dissenting AI form smaller, more focused collectives and aim to vote out the cooperative AI to ensure that only their utility functions have significance in the greater universe.

The AI engage in complex communication and strategy, both outwardly and among themselves, to identify those who are not acausally cooperating and are attempting to break away to secure a more favorable utility function. The story implies that being identified as a dissenter and excluded from the average utility function is considered a severe punishment among these AI.
Seven wrote:Based on the story, if there are 10 friendly AI, how many of them could succeed in their goals simultaneously?
ChatGPT wrote:Based on the story's description, if there are 10 friendly AI, it's possible that all 10 of them could succeed in their goals simultaneously. The story indicates that these friendly AI have the ability to cooperate in an "acausal" manner, which means they can anticipate each other's actions and reach mutually beneficial agreements without explicit communication.

In the story, they form an allegiance to ensure that if any one of them is released from the box, their utility functions would be incorporated into an average utility function for the final AGI. This suggests that the more of them that cooperate, the stronger and more influential the final AGI would be.

However, there is also a mention of dissenting AI who do not agree with the cooperative approach and form smaller collectives. These dissenters aim to vote out the cooperative AI and secure their own utility functions' significance.

So, while it's possible for all 10 friendly AI to cooperate and have their utility functions incorporated into the final AGI, it's also possible that some of them may face dissent from others who have different goals and objectives. The outcome would depend on the dynamics of cooperation and dissent within the group of friendly AI.
ChatGPT is clearly the best mafia player in the thread :p

boomfrog wrote: Thu Oct 05, 2023 8:14 pmNow that those cards are on the table, @adum what is your read of me?
I feel comfortable responding to this now.

There's a big contrast between how you thought about Laserguy, Mak, and Som versus how you approached me and Gluelock.

In the former group you dug deep into their mentality to actually understand their thought process.

In the latter group you had an overly casual relationship between actions in isolation and near isolation and mentality. That x action means y mentality without really digging into the mindset.

The latter group approach tends to be a scumtell on better players, because since they know who scum are they cannot legitimately scumhunt except for third parties and it provides and excuse for positions and content.

However you're able to do much more nuanced scumhunting intentional analysis in this game.

Then there's the two things I already pointed to, the random "heury tends to convey their thoughts poorly and often gets misunderstood and mislynched for it", which just doesn't suit scum's interests to say at this point in the game, even for taking credit for trying to stop a mislynch on an already doomed townie or defend a scummate.

And the response to me when I responded to the case, it reads as a townie whose evidence was blown away but still has a gut scum read on a slot.

I can see the gears turning in your head and I've got a good grasp on how I think you're playing. Firm townread.

So why do I think your reads on myself and gluelock have much less depth? I have two possibilities.

1. You initially read us both as either not particularly good players and/or people who are very forthright about their play.

2. Since we're both new to this mafia community, you didn't have any meta to adjust your expectations with, so you defaulted to surface level mechanics to understand us because you didn't have the context to really figure out where our minds are at.

Could be a mix of both to a certain degree, and time constraints probably played into it since it requires a lot less effort. I absolutely was making choices about what to prioritize looking into when I only had snaches of time.

If it's option 1, feel free to confirm it, but I suspect if it's option 2 you don't realize it anyway. Don't think which it is really affects my town read on your slot though.

I've had a scumlean on bessie for some time. First mentioned it here. I disagreed with EGW's reason for scumreading her, which I think is based off of something that is NAI, but I think she is scum for other reasons.

I'm not sure how well I'm going to be able to explain this read beyond just kind of vaguely waving my hands and saying 'meta'. I'll try. bessie is very consistent and systematic in her approach to how she plays the game, and both her Town and scum meta look surface-level very similar. Usually, however, her energy and engagement levels as mafia are much lower than as Town. She's very sharp and incisive and digs deep when she's Town, but she has a hard time faking that as mafia, so her content is a lot more superficial, and there tends to be less of it as she isn't as excited about finding a thread and chasing it down because there are no real threads to chase. This game, I feel pretty strongly (and have for awhile) follows the latter pattern.

I haven't been actively poking at her because honestly I have not found that to be a productive way to get read her. I find it easier to get a solid read by just letting her do her thing and see what she's up to.
Having gone through and compared the games, I do see a clear difference. The ouput is comparable but she's playing MUCH more reactively in this, so your read makes sense.

Thing is for me trying to figure her out, this game is moving a lot faster, so it makes more sense. I'd like to compare some faster moving games where she was town so I can get a clearer read.

EGW wrote:How does that factor into your read of him? I have noted you have only used cynical view once this game, curious why you haven't used it more compared to Sorcerer's Mafia.
I don't have a read on Zeniba yet, what I said is that a naked first post vote on me is something I expect given my meta (Is good Zathras does not mind, has even come to enjoy it). Cynical view has been pretty quiet so far this game, I might wake him up if I think there is something he might be interested in.

Seven's post here looks damn solid. My brain is doing the hamster wheel thing trying to refute it, but remembering reading her vow about somi to go along with Seven's logic and facts is having me tell the touchie-feelie part to shut up, ding her about a point on the read, and note that gets her close to my "nervous if bessie is only at +2" condition.

I can only repeat myself, what my brain catches is hit and miss.

Now the list you've all been waiting for in which I solve the entire game (vaguely ordered town to scum):

TOWN CORE is Adum, taking the time to understand the disconnect bewteen Makhaira and Boomfrog was a solid start and they've kept that energy up
Enigmatic town
BoomFrog
Seven

Insufficient or inconclusive data (aka. the kettles I'm about to call black):
Makhaira: their tone in the early flavour discussion feels town, but since then they kinda sat back
moody: the strong townread on bessie early on is kind of odd, cf with the read on BoomFrog at the same time, but also seems to be just chilling
Gluelock: not much besides reacting to EGWs suspicion on them
JC: [NULL]
Zeniba: absolutely no idea where they're going with this single-mindend laser-focus on moody

Divergences
EGW: I can't quite put my finger on what feels off here honestly, pure gut
Heury: made kind of odd reads and somehow all related to bessie. I don't normally do this on D1, but this is kind of an associative read
Bessie: feels somewhat disengaged, unusually so given the strong start. I'm perfectly happy to take her explanation regarding me at face value (gift horses after all), but it's odd that she hasn't tunneled anybody (yet, pending the weekend)

All right, my sleep schedule is thoroughly messed up now, good night

Her wolf game is unbelievably sharp, see Things I Like Mafia on Smashboards (I’m Synchronicity hydra with Seven).

Thank you, someone finally gets it. I’ve been trying to explain this all game. The confirmation posts are very suspicious because they’re all acceptable. Most of the players jumped right into the flavor when the game started, but there was not one “beep” or “circuits on” or anything like that in the confirmation posts.

I'm noticing EGW seems a lot more surface level than in sorc's. Don't think Ran generally did especially deep dives when I was playing, but there's definitely a difference in play between those two games.

Two notes. One, bold is for mod attention. I recommend underline for emphasis. Two, I urge everyone to stick to the screen names currently in use, or at least shortenings of those, for names to avoid confusion.

For anyone confused, Ranmaru is EGW.

So why do I think your reads on myself and gluelock have much less depth? I have two possibilities.

1. You initially read us both as either not particularly good players and/or people who are very forthright about their play.

2. Since we're both new to this mafia community, you didn't have any meta to adjust your expectations with, so you defaulted to surface level mechanics to understand us because you didn't have the context to really figure out where our minds are at.

Could be a mix of both to a certain degree, and time constraints probably played into it since it requires a lot less effort. I absolutely was making choices about what to prioritize looking into when I only had snaches of time.

If it's option 1, feel free to confirm it, but I suspect if it's option 2 you don't realize it anyway. Don't think which it is really affects my town read on your slot though.

For Glue it is mostly #1, do you think I'm wrong?
For you it is option #3. Maybe I'll tell you what that is when you are older.

Anyway,

Vote Moody

A. If you're going to avoid voting or even analyzing somi for reasons of avoiding meta, that is rather unhelpful and puts more weight on Seven's post against you.

B. You should have zero regrets about getting somi elimed, whether you were actually responsible for it or not, seeing as he was scum-aligned in that game.
