vortox specifically

Could “acting abnormally” count Vortox false information over poisoning?

@Bellatrix
How does the Mathematician count “acting abnormally”?

Any sort of abnormality coming from any character other than the mathematician themself counts

Huh. I didn’t know that.

Since it just specifies how many players, not how many other players, I figured reading into the Mathematician’s numbers would’ve been helpful.

Nobody would’ve received information N4 except for Mathematician. Since it counts outside abnormalities, of which there’d be zero, actually receiving a zero discounts Vortox. Right?

well
unless pithags still alive i think

This was specified in the chat but it might not be the same for if something else happens that makes the math receive correct info but still work abnormally?

I don’t think vortox is possible at all tbh

I don’t think that’s possible? Is there a world?

I was thinking the Mathematician acting abnormally would add 1 to the “true” Math number, which is then scrambled into a false number when given to the Mathematician in a Vortox game.

i think ybw/wazza evil?
but it requires shenanigans

pithag would pit the demon
which would make the demons ability act abnormally

You’d also have storytellers choosing the number of deaths, which is usually done to signal a pit hag demon change to town.
