We have five people from the NYC division of LW. We need two more players
When the five SIAI Fellows allied against my two friends, they ensured there was a five-against-two alliance with themselves on the winning side, and successfully reduced the gameboard from six opponents to four. Although they could have done this with anyone (eg Jasen could have selected two other Fellows and my two friends, and forged an equivalent coalition of five), Jasen would have been at risk of five other people having the same idea and excluding him. By choosing a natural and obvious division in which he was on the majority, Jasen avoided this risk.
I put Jasen on notice for that, and have made it clear this is somewhere between Cheating and Very Bad Form. Also, it's Anonymous communication, so we won't know which 5 we are unless we compare notes. We have 6 and the game starts in 6 hours.
