Minority Rule Polling/Voting thread - Part 1

[Farfalla]

I thought 'minority' concept wasn't hard at all @.@
This should now be called "Majority Loses Rule" Game @.@

 

[digitaldude]

Wait so we are replaying the round again??


New host next game!!

 

[Farfalla]

There's also a chance of 12+ people getting eliminated in a "yes" or "no" round XD so should we add a rule saying that if a round eliminates too many peeps we'll restart it? XD

we agreed on smthn

 

[kdowns]

... The thing you guys aren't understanding is that "No" was a Minority as well.

 

[Farfalla]

It was a majority next to the 'maybe' option. You should consider the whole data universe as a single reference there =-='

But I won't argue anymore for two reasons:
1- Gats is the only one that should be complaining about it, and yet he's fine XD It won't change the fact that we all lost anyway, so no point in crying about it;
2- There's a 'typo' (well, maybe it isn't) in the rule:

6)Those people whose choices fall under the minority sides shall win and continue the next round.

Since Des mentioned more than one minority side, even if it doesn't make sense IMO, guess we can't say it's against the rules.

Alright just let me know when the game is over and when the sets are posted. Not coming back to this thread.

 

[TheMoa]

It all depends on the concept of minority that is been applied

Looking at the world, take Brasil, for example
If you take the all the population, black people are a minority but indigenous people are a minority also.
There are less indigenous than blacks, but the blacks won't cease to be a minority just because of that. They still are a minority if you put white and the brown in play.

Anyway, I don't care... just finish it soon!

 

[Farfalla]

It's just to me that 'minority' and 'majority' refer to the extremities when you're dealing with more than 2 aspects? xD

 

[Evil3ye]

Bobsy why the fuck the new round ? You kinda not getting the rules?

 

[xi0]

ill just laugh so hard if u loose again

That's fine. Like I said before, my feelings would have been exactly the same if I had voted "Yes" and you had voted "No".

There's also a chance of 12+ people getting eliminated in a "yes" or "no" round XD so should we add a rule saying that if a round eliminates too many peeps we'll restart it? XD

No because that wouldn't be a tiebreaker. More people than that got eliminated after the first round.

The rules can be clarified and amended, I don't really see them being final. This just makes more sense to me. A regular round WOULDN'T have a "Maybe" option. Maybe that's the issue. Maybe having a third option isn't the best way to break a tie in the first place. If the majority feels this is stupid, if the majority feels this is the right way...as long as it's clarified before we play, I don't really care. The point is adding a third option was something decided by Bob, despite whoever suggested it.

Moderator Notice:
VERY annoyed at the needless arguments from you guys. This is MY decision, and I take responsibility by letting it carry on, if you have any further queries about this, please PM me, I don't wanna see it discussed here anymore. THEREFORE, since the constant bitching anyone who wishes to be exempt from the punishment as a result of the continued round, please also PM me.~ goldb

Admin Notice:
I would also like to add that I don't understand why people would complain about not wanting to receive punishment. It could very well end up with Gats winning anyway. Whoever was already eliminated was going to be punished regardless of who wins. Don't be a poor sport.~ xi0

 

[thornofcarrion]

I am excited to be punished. There is no shame receiving the punishment. The game was played to have some fun. I really don't get the reluctance. I am happy for Gats winning, and would have been for anyone else winning....[sizept=2]save for Gary[/SIZEpt] .

 

[Dried Ambrosia]

No he didn't he said it was up to us.

The Throne is mine by rights...Ancy, Scav, Lawlz they're all thieves. They'll bend the knee or I'll destroy them

I'm the rightful heir to the throne....I'm the Dothraki Dragon Queen...points at my avy. How dare you call me a thief??


Anyways, since I'm new at this, I won't comment...I'll just go with the flow...but it's interesting to see your lines of reasoning. Moa..that was a very good argument. IMO it was the most logical and reasonable conclusion.

...

We're waiting on you Ancy

 

[Dried Ambrosia]

edit:VOTED

 

[goldb]

Round 3 Results:​

Yes=2

I shall pay the Iron Price.

Yes.

My answer: Hellz yeah..I can do it...just bring it on...

No=1

No man gives me a crown. I pay the iron price. I will take my crown. That is who I am. That is who we have always been.

My vote is NO. Always the Iron, never the Gold

Winner is [USER]xi0[/USER]~!!!​

 

[Farfalla]

Ancy didn't win this game, therefore she's the minority. She should win O:

 

[Gats]

I was such a specimen in this game that I should escape punishment for all time. There is no one who is more in the minority than me if we look back actually.

Congratz, THE GAME IS NOT OVER. You win or you die, right ? I'm not dead yet.

 

[Lawl Po Bia]

hey who answered yes they r still minority since 3 players played. THis is a tie,no?
