The deciding logic is pretty clear -- give everyone their lowest ranked.

Since two of us had the same answers, he used seniority as a tie-breaker.  Hence why I got the banana.

(Or he flipped a coin and I won.)

Either way, LaLight saying he can't see the logic is a misdirect and scummy.

That's such an amazing feeling to know for sure someone's scum. I have never been in 3-person LyLo.

To be clear, I know there are many ways to solve the tie, I just don't know what exactly was used and anyway it doesn't really matter.

Seniority? Really? :D

Wow, seriously you guys couldn't have chosen something's different? Not making my job easy.

At first I was wondering if the fact that I ranked loser above banana could affect which of you is th banana, but there really is no way to distinguish between you two. Hmm. Maybe the order in which we're listed matters?

I think I might just have to play this like normal win-lose-banana

Both incorrect.

f.ds rules says to always bet on ash.  If a setup has hidden mechanics, they will always favor ashersky.  It's just physics.

Also fruit. 

I don't even understand what's happening here.  Why exactly am I a banana?  But I am.

You said you would rather be the loser than the banana. If the mechanics favor you, then wouldn't you be the loser?

LaLight, why did YOU say that you would prefer to be the loser over the banana?

I am aware that I also did this same thing, but I see no reason for me to talk about that.

The odds of winning favor me.  If I had been the Winner, for example, liopoil would have been the Banana, as the mafia gods know I'd choose you.

You're pretty sure he will act according to Mafia gods? :) Then he'll lose.

Ashersky, you win if I choose you no matter what you are. So the odds of winning favoring you has nothing to do with who you are. That you're pretending otherwise is suspicious

I never confuse my words.

He's the loser because I'm the banana.  He's scrambling because I'm the banana.  Banana doesn't worry.

I don't agree.  To me, loser is scum at Lylo, winner is IC.  The least pressured player is banana.  I'm in the easiest role -- if town loses, it's more liopoil's fault than mine.  (I know it's other town job to be towny enough, etc. but the guilt always resides with the wrong voter.)

You and lalight have exactly the same wincon, and so will play exactly the same way. I'm not sure how you're making this distinction, and fault has little to do with anything
