SFM75 - Waifu uPick: Revenge of the Waifus
Hosted by watchme1
Overseen by TrueGent

I just wanted to expand my waifu collection please no bully

Image

Last time on Waifu uPick, the last waifu standing was Rem. Who’s Rem you say? Well that’s a good question my fellow waifu. All I heard was that it was a massacre and the bad waifus went out of control! So what can we do about it you might ask? Well fear no more as you have a chance to battle it out again and prove you have what it takes to be the best waifu! It’s time for the Revenge of the Waifus!

Well with that introduction out of the way lets get started

Rules:

  • You might be cute waifus, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t follow the rules!
  • Be Respectful to others! We’re all friends here so lets not try to be toxic or be one to cause harassment.
  • Don’t gamethrow (throwing a teammate under the bus is fine, outing your whole team for the sake of losing isn’t), don’t angleshoot (use information outside of the thread as an argument).
  • Don’t quote your rolecard word for word or I will have to banish you to the shadow realm .
  • If there isn’t an FM rule listed here, assume it is :3
  • Don’t be a dick :^)
  • We all like to have fun! Or not, up to you to decide T.T

Setup:

  • 15 Waifus, which means 15 of you will be playing!
  • 72 hours a day, 24 hours a night. How original b-b-baka!
  • Waifus don’t get prodded. We want content! No content for 24 hours = prod. Failure to post after 12 hours the prod has been sent = force replacement. (Also getting replaced means the backup will have to play as some waifu that they didn’t choose so please don’t get replaced)
  • Plurality and Majority are in play. Whatever that means.
  • Multitasking is a thing. Yes.
  • No kill credit. Basically the cause of expelling a waifu will not be told unless lynched.
  • If for some reason there is a tie, the lynch target will be rng'd. Oh no winning via luck!
  • Upon death, the full rolecard will be posted.
  • Night feedback will be given where appropriate.
  • There may or may not be any bastard mechanics but definately no role conversion. I will not lie to you unless another player intervenes.
  • All night actions are to be either pm'd directly to me via forums or discord whichever is more comfortable for you.


Picking a Waifu (the hardest part) :

Upon signing up, please pm me either via forums or discord your waifu choices. Send at least 2 waifus to be considered into a custom rolecard. You can send as many as you want actually. But please at least make it have the following characteristics to be considered as a waifu.

  • Is female
  • Is Humanoid
  • Is a character from Japanese animation/manga (easier to reference flavour)
I will be more strict than Torque with regards to what a waifu is so don’t bother trying to send Dio as a choice or I’ll make it so that you get auto mod killed at sod1.
If your waifus don't satisfy the following points you'll have to give ample reason as to why they're waifus and I might consider :3

If for some reason you don’t have any knowledge of waifus, some recommendations I have is to look at the Danganronpa series as they have a sizeable collection of suitable waifus which would work well as a rolecard for this.

I don't think I said this in the OP but I'll just say it now before the game begins.

This game has notifications where appropriate.

A quick note about WW theory and how I will play this game. Note that the arguments and facts presented here are indisputable, and that I will not engage in arguments about them, because those arguments are you wasting everyone else's time about meta that is well and comprehensively established. Go make reads so we can read you.

I've reflected on my role and realized that there is a GTO play for me in this game, and therefore I am compelled to pursue it. I am going to brute force my clearness immediately upon the opening of the thread.

I am hard-claiming, I am the Best Girl
Benefits:

1. I will survive tonight: I do not believe the wolves are able to kill me tonight, because it is so objectively unlikely that I would ever do this as the Best Girl. I believe that this decision reduces the importance of the Best Girl cover to be provided by all of you to the point of it being negligible. The wolves have already been outplayed, as it were.

2. I'm lock clear: All of you already know I'm lock clear, because it is so objectively unlikely that I would do this as a wolf. You know this for at least two reasons. First, this is the easiest, lowest-stress, lowest-demand game to wolf in that I've ever played in (except for turbos). I have no need to complicate my life, as a wolf, by open-claiming on thread open, when all I have to do is provide like a C-level wolf game to probably win. This is the rare instance where you literally know that I have a billion other options as a wolf, AND that I would pursue probably ALL of them before pursuing this. Second, I engage in FPS exceedingly rarely, which necessarily means that I *know* that this will look WEIRD and SHOCKING to you. There is no merit to a wolf play that instantly generates WEIRD and SHOCKED responses that I would be obligated to finesse and manage for the remainder of the game. As a villager, which I am, the burden is totally on you to not $#@! up and lynch me. Makes my life super awesome.

3. There are only 13 players you need to try to read, rather than 14: I have already provided a "free" check of me in a game with a mere 15 players. Our win equity is dramatically improved by my being entirely off the table for the entire game.

Conclusion:

The burden of sound reasoning is now entirely upon you. I am the Best Girl, and thus a villager, and thus lock clear. The game is immediately simpler than it would otherwise have been, because of my decision. Now, let us enjoy that benefit and win the game.

Also, to preempt a lengthy and pointless discussion.

It is NOT dumb to ponder this post and convince yourself of its wisdom. That is your obligation as a not Best Girl, and I encourage you to think it over for as long as it takes to quell your (initially valid but ultimately unnecessary) concerns.

It IS dumb to, AFTER doing that pondering, conclude that I'm "neutral" or "wolfy." That is legitimately stupid, and I won't entertain it. ONE of the reasons it is a stupid conclusion is that the upside of this play as a wolf is absolutely DWARFED by the upside of this play as a villager. There is no equivalency between the EV gain for wolf-me in this position and villager-me in this position. They're universes apart. That means I wouldn't DO the poorer option of the two (by extension, wolf-me also wouldn't BELIEVE that I could convince the entire game of the truth of these assertions for the entire game, which as an end-game wolf I would have to believe if this strategem were to be worth pursuing). A SECOND reason that conclusion is stupid is that the EV bonus of doing this as a wolf is COMPLETELY DWARFED by me baseline wolf EV anyway. Anything that complicates my wolfing life is RIDICULOUSLY stupid for me to do, given that my wolfing life is ALREADY one of the smoothest, highest expectation wolfing lives in WW history anyway. A THIRD reason that conclusion is stupid is that you would probably have to worry about being EXPLOITED by this gambit in order to get there. However, I have NEVER engaged in this, or any similar, gambit in my entire career, meaning that if there IS exploitation to be had with this play, it is in FUTURE GAMES, not this game. For these reasons, pressuring me is extremely wolfy and should not be engaged in by any villager, ever, in this game. There will be no less productive pursuit than that in this game.

Sucks for the wolves when meta is wielded this brutally, but my allegiance is plain and my strategy perfect. Get #rekt.

Postby Varanus » Mon Aug 03, 2020 7:03 pm

trying to think why i wanted to play this game. i only like rolling town. basically the only thing thats appealing to me about mafia is the concept of pouring large amounts of effort into something that's superficially useful. i wouldn't enjoy coloring an entire page with a pen. i don't think it's the difficulty of the task of solving the game which is appealing either, it's just the fact that it's possible to spend a long time doing it. a good analogy is a jigsaw puzzle, which is something i enjoy as well. i'm not sure that's quite it though. it feels bad to have players you think are wolf flip town, but i couldn't care less about the actual outcome of the game. if a jigsaw puzzle just dissolved in front of my eyes i wouldn't care that i hadn't finished it and some of the pieces were in the wrong place. perhaps it is about being proven right and as flips occur i steadily lose interest over time because there are fewer players left to solve, and by the end of the game i give zero fucks? i think it's aspects of both.
You were expecting a decent signature...

First, this is the easiest, lowest-stress, lowest-demand game to wolf in that I've ever played in (except for turbos). I have no need to complicate my life, as a wolf, by open-claiming on thread open, when all I have to do is provide like a C-level wolf game to probably win. This is the rare instance where you literally know that I have a billion other options as a wolf, AND that I would pursue probably ALL of them before pursuing this. Second, I engage in FPS exceedingly rarely, which necessarily means that I *know* that this will look WEIRD and SHOCKING to you. There is no merit to a wolf play that instantly generates WEIRD and SHOCKED responses that I would be obligated to finesse and manage for the remainder of the game. As a villager, which I am, the burden is totally on you to not $#@! up and lynch me. Makes my life super awesome.

3. There are only 13 players you need to try to read, rather than 14: I have already provided a "free" check of me in a game with a mere 15 players. Our win equity is dramatically improved by my being entirely off the table for the entire game.

Conclusion:

The burden of sound reasoning is now entirely upon you. I am the Best Girl, and thus a villager, and thus lock clear. The game is immediately simpler than it would otherwise have been, because of my decision. Now, let us enjoy that benefit and win the game.

Also, to preempt a lengthy and pointless discussion.

It is NOT dumb to ponder this post and convince yourself of its wisdom. That is your obligation as a not Best Girl, and I encourage you to think it over for as long as it takes to quell your (initially valid but ultimately unnecessary) concerns.

It IS dumb to, AFTER doing that pondering, conclude that I'm "neutral" or "wolfy." That is legitimately stupid, and I won't entertain it. ONE of the reasons it is a stupid conclusion is that the upside of this play as a wolf is absolutely DWARFED by the upside of this play as a villager. There is no equivalency between the EV gain for wolf-me in this position and villager-me in this position. They're universes apart. That means I wouldn't DO the poorer option of the two (by extension, wolf-me also wouldn't BELIEVE that I could convince the entire game of the truth of these assertions for the entire game, which as an end-game wolf I would have to believe if this strategem were to be worth pursuing). A SECOND reason that conclusion is stupid is that the EV bonus of doing this as a wolf is COMPLETELY DWARFED by me baseline wolf EV anyway. Anything that complicates my wolfing life is RIDICULOUSLY stupid for me to do, given that my wolfing life is ALREADY one of the smoothest, highest expectation wolfing lives in WW history anyway. A THIRD reason that conclusion is stupid is that you would probably have to worry about being EXPLOITED by this gambit in order to get there. However, I have NEVER engaged in this, or any similar, gambit in my entire career, meaning that if there IS exploitation to be had with this play, it is in FUTURE GAMES, not this game. For these reasons, pressuring me is extremely wolfy and should not be engaged in by any villager, ever, in this game. There will be no less productive pursuit than that in this game.

Sucks for the wolves when meta is wielded this brutally, but my allegiance is plain and my strategy perfect. Get #rekt.
