Levin's wager.

Let the battle of the shitlords commence.

The worst part is that, this being Llorg, at least one of these f****** a******* will get away with whatever they want to accomplish.
It doesn't bother me beacuse i want 'karma' or 'justice'. I just want them to get screwed

So the plan is to have both teams beat Infinite? Levin is not going to fulfill his side of the bargain, hell no.

25436: Brilliand - Saturday, April 17 2021 - 2:35 AM

Oh, I didn't realize there was enough fruit left for someone on team orange to outscore Infinite.

But of course, Levin still manages to make a completely unreasonable proposal...

@Brilliand
And in a way that may just convince team Orange to unite against him anyway. Guy needs to learn diplomacy.

Pretty sure a crime lord with a lifetime of experience cannot be called "naive" if he feels really assured of his victory, that's more arrogance if anything... Also, I wouldn't trust Levin as far as I could punch him.

I suspect when (hopefully when rather than if) Levin gets his, there will be some celebrating, in comic and in RL.

I don't think there's anything more to say. That author comment sums it all up.

Start: 501 O, 501 A
Currently held: 198 O save, 201 A kill, 100 O Infinite
Remaining: 200 O, 300 A
Missing in action: 3 O

My proposed total trades (add mindfuckery to get it done as individually trusted trades :p)

104 O to Candidate most likely to honour a promise to nominate nobody, i.e. Tobi
96 O to team save
93 A to team kill

Result:
398 O to Tobi - does a "no nomination"
394 O to Infinite - is happy enough with this outcome
294 O to team save minus Infinite and Tobi
294 A to team kill

3 O missing,

Reasoning:

Team save (minus Infinite) has no benefit from having team kill nominate rather than Infinite, and while having 100k extra from Levin's solution in case team kill didn't nominate you for killing would be nice, it is inferior to not risking being nominated at all.

So the obvious compromise solution for anybody not named Infinite would be to trade 200 O for at least some A, in such a way that one member that can be trusted NOT to nominate a candidate for killing has the highest score (taking into account the missing 3 O), such that it is guaranteed that no further trades can change the outcome. Assuming such a candidate can be found. Let me call the hypothetical candidate "Tobi".

Fortunately, that only requires team save minus Infinite to agree on such a person and put that as their counterproposal, as that faces team kill with the choice between a) their entire team getting extra score and having somebody other han Infinite nominating, which regardless of whether they consider that person trustworthy or not is a better situation than b) having their current score and Infinite nominating.

How can Levin hear Tobi say "get to the point" when she's not on the communicator?

25443: Storm - Saturday, April 17 2021 - 10:19 AM

Infinite walking away does seem pretty suspicious.

Does Infinite have something in specific to do, or is he just acting suspicious for its own sake (to cultivate his image) and taking advantage of a chance to do some exploring while everyone else is distracted? Maybe Infinite can do some magic while no one else is looking?

@deliverance
Bless your calculating, optimizing soul but sadly, i can guarantee people wont be that smart

25446: someone - Sunday, April 18 2021 - 12:22 AM

i'm more surprised tobi's not just using infinite's interest in her as leverage to neutralize his power
