Grammaticus is the witness. That should be clear by now. I thought he was the seer pretending to be the witness. I was wrong. But we should be able to agree, without a doubt, that his netting of a wolf on Day 2 makes him the witness. Voting against a known villager? That's a voting offense.

He only claims to be the witness. There may or may not be one in this game.

Primary Roles

Werewolf - You belong to a pack of werewolves.
Villager - You are a villager, and your sole purpose is to survive.
Seer - You are the seer, and can view the true identity of a man or wolf. Each night you may choose to view the true identity (pertaining only to wolf/villager) of one player.
Herbalist - You possess a bag of wolfsbane, the deadliest herb known to all wolfkind. Each night, you may choose to protect someone by slipping wolfsbane upon him. You may not choose the same person two nights in a row. You may, however, choose yourself.
Secret Role(s) - There are secret role(s) in this game.

I’ve laid it out in prior posts. I also feel Dubbs post for RA on day two says something. Dub used the word “role” out of context to id RA and in parenthesis. I think he was telling us that he (Dubb) had a role and was identifying RA as a wolf. Hindsight is 20/20, but all the same, it is one of the reasons why I felt good about Dubb before he was lynched.

Reposting to reflect the error in naming Dubb where I intended to name Dacman.

Well, now that dacman has been outed as the seer, it is fairly clear that I am not a seer. I guess there could be 2 seers, but not likely enough to try and work that angle. I didn’t say anything before, because I though it was clever of ardent to suggest seer, maybe making the wolves go for me thinking they were getting the seer. Bottom line is, I Witnessed the killing and reported it. Yeah RA, I don’t think I need to spend a lot of time trying to defend now.

A wolf is not going to sacrifice another wolf just for deception, that is silly. There may be 3 wolves, you can’t afford to let one go for any reason. Would you sacrifice one third of the villagers to trick the wolves? Sacrificing so much for something that does not ensure a win does not make sense. It just doesn’t pay off in the long run.

The following is not a defense of me, but a shedding of light upon RA. RA, you are wolfish in your attempt to get villagers to vote for me. It could be because you are angry that I am pushing you as a wolf. But, then it is not in the best interest of the villagers to lynch me, so acting in anger does not help. It could also mean that you want to try and get the villagers to waste a lynch on me to help the wolves reduce their ratio and ensure a wolf does not get lynched in my place. Probably the second option, either way not good for villagers. I think you have to go, just because you are the most likely wolf.

Hmmm...at this point, I'm not suggesting a scenario. I'm not positively sure Grammaticus is a wolf.

The ones I think may be wolves are you (Barkeep) and Blade. Even then, I'm not so sure.

So this is the only wolfish thing I've done? LOL.

Anyhow, as I posted above, I am not sure you are a wolf. I agree I have to go because I am most likely a wolf, although I can assure you that I'm not. I'm sure the wolves thought I would point to the Pennywisesb defense of how it looks like I'm "framed" by voting for him yesterday. I just can't think of a reason to kill Pennywisesb unless they thought he was the bodyguard.

I'm trying to leave my thoughts out there for now so after I'm dead I can continue on. On the other hand, I think I've mucked up this game enough I deserve to die. :)

I guess it is time to come clean. I was given the special role of empath. It gives me the ability to check 2 sentences from the game and determine if the person that said them were telling the truth or not.

Last night I decided to use up both of my chances and checked the following 2 sentences.

Also, simple villager checking in.

That was a quote from RA in post #67. RPI said he was telling the truth.

The other sentence I checked was...

Villager checking in.

That is a quote from TazTFW in post #66. RPI said he was lieing.

I made this move b/c my role is completely used up, and it allows us to get a wolf. RA is not the right vote tonight, Taz is. He's played under the radar the whole game, he's a wolf, I have the proof.

Also, to be clear here are the numbers:

10 of us left. We can assume there are at probably two wolves left, maybe three.

Worst case scenario is three wolves left. If we make the wrong move today, it's 6-3 villagers. After the night phase, it's 5-3 villagers. This is obviously not an endgame gambit.

That could be a point to argue, but Dubb’s ability uncovers your post stating you are a villager to be a lie. The quite part just indicates why he chose to review your post versus someone else’s.

I suppose it is possible, but like I said I'm the empath. If I was lieing at this point it would be stupid. I'd be giving the villagers 2 wolves. That wouldn't make any sense. RA is a villager, I'm the empath, and you are a wolf. It's really that simple.

Now that I think of it, if Dubb and RA really are wolves, why would they sacrifice themselves by obviously lying and killing a villager? The only thing I can think of is that they know that if one more villager is killed they will win somehow by tommorow. Basically, this vote could be do-or-die for the us villagers. I'm hesitant to vote either way.

Well there are 10 left. Lynch me and its down to 9. Maybe the wolves have a 2 kill wolf on their side or have friends that will give the wolves the win in a tie.

I don't know. I just don't trust Dubb or RA, or ANYONE for that matter. I guess it makes more sense that Dubb is telling the truth, since there seems to be no way the wolves could benefit from him lying. I hope I'm right.

10 people left. IF I was lieing, which I'm not, then that would mean that even after Saldana's death, and no no kills at night(a no kill could either be a bodyguard type protecting or a possible conversion) THAT THERE WOULD HAVE TO BE 4 WOLVES LEFT. That is beyond highly unlikely that of 16 people starting there would be 5 wolves.

I'm telling the truth, this isn't anything stupid. I'm simply the empath, I checked RA and Taz and found Taz to be a wolf. If I'm lieing I would be giving the villagers 2 wolves. It would be stupid. Taz is a wolf and RA is a villager. Do the right thing guys.

TazFTW
12-22-2005, 05:16 PM
I'm not voting for Barkeep or RA since they both have been wolves in the last game they played, thus in my mind making it less likely they are a wolf this game.
That is from post 90. The reason I mention it is because RA played last game and he was not a wolf. Last game was the assassin/noble game and me, Mr. W, and McSweeny were the assassins. If you want to believe this statement then I being an assassin in the last game would not be a werewolf this game. Or you can see it for what it is and it is dubb protecting another werewolf.

I'm not sure we're doing the right thing right now with Dubb. Like the last game, someone who's vocal on Day 1 is probably not a wolf. I have a few thoughts but will wait an hour or so to post them (just a theory I have) and also post my vote.
Post 161. Proves my theory of fitting in.

Dacman is next if they don't get over this stupid shit. I've done nothing but try and help and they seem willing to tie a noose around my neck at every corner.
Post 172. It should be noted that dacman, the seer voted for dubb93 twice.

There really isn't anything more I can say, I used my power and saw Taz to be wolf. If anyone has any other questions post them and if I get back in time I'll be happy to answer them. Please, just make the right decision. We don't need to lynch another innocent tonight.

To me, the math is simple. There is no way the wolves win today. Why make the play?

If you don't go with dubb, you know that both he and I are wolves.

There are 10 players left. There are likely 2 or 3 wolves.

In the worse case scenario there are 7 villagers and 3 wolves.

If Dubb is lying:
Today we kill Taz. 6 villagers 3 wolves. Wolves kill tonight. 5 villagers 3 wolves. We kill Dubb tomorrow as a wolf. 5 to 2 villagers. Even after a wolf kill that still leaves the villagers up 4 to 2. The wolves would have to be confident that they would not be killed two days from now, when there would be a 1/3 chance of it happening, for this play to make sense. That's a pretty bold move for the wolves here then. It only makes sense if RA is NOT a wolf as based on the circumstances he has benefitted the most from this revelation and thus would seem likely to be once again on the block two days from now and so perhaps the wolves were thinking that we kill RA and then they end the game that night. Counting on the mood of what villagers will be like two days from now seems pretty risky if they have 3 wolves. And if they only have two wolves the numbers just don't make sense.

Therefore I'm inclined to believe Dubb.

I am inclined to believe Dubb and go with the Taz lynch. If Taz is not a wolf, then the path is clearer. If Taz is a wolf, that would be one wolf down and RA in the clear.

Remember my post a page ago. I think Blade might have been backing my losing play because he knows I'm a villager and it would clear him.

Just a possibility, but maybe not a probability.

Why are you trying to not get involved? We are pretty much going to lynch Taz. If you think that is bad, lets hear it.

I am inclined to believe Dubb and go with the Taz lynch. If Taz is not a wolf, then the path is clearer. If Taz is a wolf, that would be one wolf down and RA in the clear.

i said i wouldnt comment past my vote for barkeep(which im keeping), but ill toss a few random thoughts out there as food for thought.

*Saldana targeted dubb and was pushing hard to get him killed, making dubb look clear to me.

*It could be that both taz and raiders are innocent and dubb is a wolf...he figures you kill raiders(who had a bazillion votes at the time) you then kill taz thinking dubb was telling the truth. If you kill taz and see hes a villager, he has 50-50 odds we kill raiders first.

*the most important point of all, though i havent seen taz play to it and if he does now ill be doubtful, but the phrase was villager checking in...it seems within reason that if he was the bodyguard/doctor(a possibility, since we havent lynched him and we dont know the roles of night kills) RPI might say it was false...i doubt this is the case, just food for though.

*gramat - seer had 3 views, as there was a night 0...dont forget that...but dacman is new so i doubt he knew who to scan as the best players...and he left absolutely no clues which tells me he hit diddly squat.

*I STILL WANT TO BLOODY KNOW ABOUT THIS POSSE...RAIDERS IS IN IT, AS IS BARKEEP AND I THOUGHT SUN...THEY SAID THERE IS A THIRD...IF ONE OF THE MEMBERS OF THIS POSSE IS A KEY PLAYER IN THIS VOTE WE NEED TO KNOW WHAT IT IS. OTHERWISE IM STARTING TO WONDER IF THE POSSE ISNT A FAKE ROLE REVEAL.

*The wolves has targeted the quiter players, the ones with no real ties to controversy. Sun accusing ardent before switching two more times to other people is odd. Wolves want to kill people that are going to put heat on other villagers. You dont kill the guy nobody cares about, you kill the guy accusing another villager. So if their not killing people like me(who has had 0 votes on himself this game while accusing a certain few) there must be a reason. That leads me to believe im barking up the right tree, as killing me would draw attention to whoever i attacked. Killing penny leaves us all clueless. The first would be more beneficial to the wolves if i wasnt accusing any wolves. Thats why im sticking to my guns.

Without revealing too much about the posse, in case we need to verify claims of being a posse member later on, individual posse members have the ability to kill someone at night. There are a rather lengthy set of restrictions which will not be mentioned here, but that is the short summary of what the posse is Blade. I'm glad you're posting since even though you're wrong with me, I think you've had other good insights this game.

Barkeep49
12-22-2005, 07:40 PM
Also I think the "setup kill" is the most over rated thing in Werewolf. I think it's far more likely that the remaining wolves haven't aroused any real suspicion, as Taz had not, and thus wanted as many different people to argue as possible. Generally as a wolf I wanted the quieter players around. With so many different "loud" people saying so many different things we could have been missing the boat completely on the wolves. Somewhat selfishly I'm glad for this strategy, but I really think if Dubb pans out that after saldana they've been working hard to stay under the radar.

WVUFAN

My reason for voting for Taz is that Dubb doesn't really have a reason for lying -- if he is, he's next on the lynch post, which makes little sense if he's a wolf. Since Taz says he has no secret roles, there can't be some sort of out, so either Dubb is telling the truth, and Taz is a wolf, or he's not, he's solely responsible for the death of an innocent, and he'll be next on the block, for certain.

Heres one gigantic reason...Raiders is a wolf...if thats the case, and then you can assume dubb is, it makes all the sense in the world. Raiders was down like 7-1 in votes? This lie(if it is) single handidly saved him today. Its a numbers game, and if raiders is a wolf they get two villagers today instead of losing a wolf. Makes all the sense in the world if thats the case.

If that is the case though, bad thoughts arise...they are either closer to the win then we think(if we lost 2 villagers today, it would take us two days to kill dubb and raider so we lose two more villagers....thats at least 4 of the 10 left, and all they need is 1-1 ratio). That also would mean we still have 3 wolves. 4 out of 16 or whatever we started with seems high, but it is possible.

The last thought i have is i wonder about a cunning wolf....could make things very interesting if either taz or dubb are one.

What's a cunning wolf? Is this an adjective for a good player, or a special ability?

A special ability in which when a wolf is lynched he is revealed as a villager instead of a wolf...there has also been a brutal wolf who kills someone when he is lynched, as well as many other secret roles. But if we had secret roles like witness and the posse, its hard for me to imagine in someway they didnt recieve extra help, be it a 4th wolf or secret roles of their own.

Actually those first few games are why I like to stay quiet now. I would get lynched early every time I started discussion about who could be the wolves. I learned being quiet kept me in the game longer. Now it seems like it could be my downfall.

If thats the case i aplogize, as i wasnt around for those. As for being loud, it usually gets me killed but being loud enough has tought me a lot. Wolves dont just mess up and give up clues. Wolves must be provoked into an argument, or provoked into emotions that might cause a misstep. I learn 10 times more by accusing people then by sitting idly by...besides, quiet people die on day one

So, you are saying that an individual in the posse can on their own cause a kill? Does that mean two kills can occur in one night? Also, from what you said earlier, a wolf could also be a posse member?

Does the bold in your grid posts mean you suspect those people of being wolves?

No. It means they changed their vote. It's my way of telling at a glance which votes I should look at when tallying votes.

I know that Dacman voted for me twice, but he did so on day 1 before he could use his ability, then again on day 2, but was more than willing to remove his vote from me, and did, to break the Saldana/RA tie. If he had hit a wolf, he would leave his vote on me as a hint for when he died. On night 2 is when I'm guessing he viewed me, since he DID NOT COME OUT AND VOTE ME AGAIN! He I was a wolf and he viewed and saw me, he would not have removed his vote from me, and would have voted me again on day 3. I believe that further clears me.

As for no bad guy ever using the voting for yourself trick, I've seen it done many times. Infact I remember it used to be refered to as the "wolf trick." I myself busted it out in the spawn game and got some people to unvote me. Don't believe Taz, he is a wolf.

There probably was not much to id Taz as a wolf, because there is not much by way of posts from Taz to look at, period. Also, waiting to use an ability like that is not such a bad idea. It lets you try and get a feel for who's posts make sense for review. Otherwise, its just a blind stab. With an ability like that, you would really want to nail a wolf.

Here is a question for all, If you don't want to try Dubb's reveal by lynching Taz, why would you lynch Dubb over Raiders Army (no offense RA)? If Dubb is not telling the truth, then he was trying to save RA and it would make sense for non believers to nail RA.

I also see by Barkeep's post #551 that Taz did not explain any of his votes for Day 2 or 3. Obviously an "under the radar" type play. That makes sense in that one wolf is probably doing the silent thing and another is doing a vocal thing. Nice strategy.

I think Taz is the most likely candidate to be a wolf, therefore we should lynch him. The other benefit to this course, if he is not a wolf, we have tested Dubb’s claim of using the empathy ability. We either get a wolf or we get good knowledge regarding RA and Dubb.

Does anyone know what a “bribed villager” is and how that works? Someone brought that up earlier. Is it possible that Dubb could be forced to make the empath statement against his will?

Either way, I think you go with Taz. If he is a wolf, bingo and RA is clear. If not, then RA was the one being protected and you go for him first over Dubb, the next cycle.

The day seemed positive. Most people were comfortable the town would soon be eradicated of the wolves, with TazTFW the next to go. But as you hang TazTFW by the ropes, he never changes form. You're horrified to realize that TazTFW was a villager!

Don't lynch me before dubb. This is my thought process:

If you lynch me and see that I'm a villager that will put doubt in your mind about dubb. If you lynch him first and me second then at least he'll be gone. I realize by saying this, you may think I'm trying to attempt a "strategy". It is not. Yesterday I would've fallen on my sword to prove that dubb was right.

Argh. I really thought he was on the level.

Why might i ask do you have raiders ahead of dubb?
I initially think

1. RA
2. Dubb

Because the heat has been on RA so many times and each time we changed it has been to the detriment of the villagers. I'm still wondering about this bribed villager role and what it could mean. Although, I will concede and go with Dubb first if that is what everyone wants to do. Either way, the Taz revelation is bad for both Dubb and RA.

He obviously dumped a load of crap on us. There also has to be a reason he tried to move the heat off RA. Just like Barkeep moved the heat off RA onto Dacman, then shifted at the last minute (4 minutes prior to end of day cycle) to RA. What is up with that?

On day one, it appears that RA was trying to get Dubb off the block when he started the shift to St. Cronin. Remember Dubb had 2 votes and Barkeep had 2 votes. Was RA trying to get the heat off Dubb or both Dubb and Barkeep??

Raiders Army

Although you guys probably won't listen to me, I'm not entirely sure dubb is a wolf. We do not know for a fact that he is one. There is the possibility that Taz was a wolf that when lynched would appear to be a villager. I'm not saying that it is a probability, but it is a possibility.

That is the only thing I can think of that would clear dubb. I know for a fact he told the truth about me, so that is why I'm leery of voting for him today.

Upon a search of his belongings, you see a notepad with a list of names, and various evil paraphenalia. Before long, you realize that dubb93 is The Cultist.

Cultist - You win if the werewolves win. You know who the wolves are, but they don't know who you are. You are counted as a regular villager in headcounts, including the victory headcount.

After a quiet, solumn day, you decide that it is time to again sniff out a wolf. Convinced of his evil, you hang Raiders Army to the gallows. You're dismayed to realize, however, that he never changes form. Raiders Army is a regular villager and a member of the posse.


Posse - You are a member of a posse organized to help protect the village against the wolves. You've only had a brief opportunity to organize yourselves, and for fear of collusion you can no longer associate with each other. You don't know who the other posse members are, and in fact one or more of them may themselves be werewolves! Nevertheless, in the organization of your group, you've come up with a scheme to attempt to eliminate the werewolves. Each of you were given a weapon that may be used one time, at your discretion during the night. As a one-time night action, you may attempt to kill one person. If a werewolf is a member of the posse, they may make a kill in addition to their regular nightly kill. If you are protected by the herbalist, you may not leave your room, and if you attempt a kill while protected the posse will be immediately disbanded. Additionally, if you attempt to kill the person protected by the herbalist, you will be unsuccessful. You will search your victim's belongings afterward, and their role will be revealed in the morning. If more than one member of the posse attempts a kill in the same night, the posse becomes disorganized and is immediately disbanded.

If the posse has not been disbanded and they make a wolf kill tonight, that will keep the ratio from becoming 1:1, so technically, it is not over yet. Although, I'm guessing it was disbanded, too many rules to make it work.

You have trouble getting to sleep, and in fact before you can close your eyes for long you hear terrible screams. Next, you hear the howl of two wolves on the prowl, and soon they come after you! Grammaticus has been eaten!

There are two wolves and two villager remaining, and the wolves wreak their havoc!

The wolves have won!!!

Primary Roles

Werewolf - You belong to a pack of werewolves.
Villager - You are a villager, and your sole purpose is to survive.
Seer - You are the seer, and can view the true identity of a man or wolf. Each night you may choose to view the true identity (pertaining only to wolf/villager) of one player.
Herbalist - You possess a bag of wolfsbane, the deadliest herb known to all wolfkind. Each night, you may choose to protect someone by slipping wolfsbane upon him. You may not choose someone two nights in a row. You may, however, choose yourself.
Secret Role(s) - There are secret role(s) in this game.


**Secret**

Witness - As a one-time skill, you may choose to view the killing of an innocent during the night. If noone is killed, then you waste your view.

Posse - You are a member of a posse organized to help protect the village against the wolves. You've only had a brief opportunity to organize yourselves, and for fear of collusion you can no longer associate with each other. You don't know who the other posse members are, and in fact one or more of them may themselves be werewolves! Nevertheless, in the organization of your group, you've come up with a scheme to attempt to eliminate the werewolves. Each of you were given a weapon that may be used one time, at your discretion during the night. As a one-time night action, you may attempt to kill one person. If a werewolf is a member of the posse, they may make a kill in addition to their regular nightly kill. If you are protected by the herbalist, you may not leave your room, and if you attempt a kill while protected the posse will be immediately disbanded. Additionally, if you attempt to kill the person protected by the herbalist, you will be unsuccessful. You will search your victim's belongings afterward, and their role will be revealed in the morning. If more than one member of the posse attempts a kill in the same night, the posse becomes disorganized and is immediately disbanded.

Brutal Wolf - You are a regular werewolf, except if you are lynched you will gain a surge of power and feast on one person of your choice prior to being taken to the gallows.

Cultist - You win if the werewolves win. You know who the wolves are, but they don't know who you are. You are counted as a regular villager in headcounts, including the victory headcount.

Well this was a great game. I'm going to do my thoughts and observations in the form of awards.
Most Improved Player -- Blade
The last few games, Blade has been just scary with how on he's been about stuff. I fear what'll happen the next time he's playing a wolf in a game I'm playing since I think they'll be very hard to defeat. Blade you scared me alot this game.

Most unfortunate lynchee Dacman
Poor Dac went away for the day and found himself lynched when he got back. The whole Dac lynch scared me so much. With that vote I was trying to lay low after all the attention I raised with Raiders the previous day. I thought to myself that it was far safer to vote for some random person, who it wouldn't be discovered one way or another if I was right or wrong, rather then voting for someone with votes and being accused of starting a bandwagon. And what should happen instead? I started a bandwagon. The fear I felt was greatly allieviated when I found out that he was the Seer. I figured at that point even if I got lynched for it, that I had done WVU, who NO ONE suspected, a world of good.

Great Wolf Performance by a First Time Player WVUFan
WVU made a great wolf. He laid low, but only briefly did anyone (naturally it was Blade) suspect him. I hope that I get to be on his time again in the future.

Great job of almost not being killed after a Witness spotting Saldana

I am of the belief that the Witness is broken. By including a witness in the game you basically are killing a wolf. So when Saldana was spotted on the first night, I advocated fingering Grammaticus. Saldana went in a different direction, and with Grammaticus trying to be sutble about his see, it almost worked.

Person most responsible for the Wolf Victory Dubb
What a brilliant move. By fingering a complete innocent he bought us the three days we needed to win. I was amazed that no one pointed out the possiblity of a Brutal Wolf when considering why a "wolf" would fake a role. Great great play dubb.

And thanks to Raiders, Ardent, and everyone else for an enjoyable game. It was truly a fun one.

Of course thanks to RPI for running this one. With each new game it expands the number of people we have that can run games here which is so nice.

A few final questions:
1. Ardent who did you protect?
2. Raiders and Schmdity who did you try and kill on Night 2?

WVU, one of the better "quiet games" I've seen in some time. You were never on the radar at all.

Blade - you were on the right track with Barkeep early but Dubb pulled you off of it. But it was fun watching how good your instincts were this time around.

Dubb - awfully, awfully good.

Ardent + Raiders - tough games for you guys here. Both of you ended up being worked pretty well by the wolves while holding positions that could have helped the villagers.

RPI - nice game. Fun read.

12-27-2005, 07:29 PM
I was completely lost initially in this game, but Saldana sacrificed himself early to protect me, and Barkeep was prepared to do the same. They were great wolves, and really made this fun for me.

Again, great job, everyone. :-)

Blade - you were on the right track with Barkeep early but Dubb pulled you off of it. But it was fun watching how good your instincts were this time around.

Honestly he never did, i just came the the conclusion myself that no matter what i did to sway people i wasnt getting barkeep killed before dubb and raiders...i figured taz was good, and even thought that raiders was good too, but just knew the momentum from everyone else was too much and decided to play follow the leader until i saw an opening.

I think dubb knowing the wolves off balanced things a bit, as other turncoats dont know the wolves....his knowledge of them basically granted them an extra wolf who counted as a villager. I would have liked to see either dubb have to meet a certain criteria to find out who they were or not at all as i think it tipped the scales a bit.

Wow, thank you for the kind words barkeep despite my losing performance...I think ive been fairly lucky the past few games in just getting the right reads. I at first thought dubb was good, then after his reveal(pre taz lynch) bad...i never considered turncoat so i was off their. WVU i suspected somewhat, but i figured i had to get the vocal wolves before the quiet ones as the quiet ones dont have evidence i can use against them.

Barkeep, you did a wonderful job all game. I knew, but i couldnt get anyone else to believe me and after dacman died and dubb made his move i knew it was over. Congrats on a great play blinding everyone else to your role.

Barkeep49
12-27-2005, 07:37 PM
I would say Dubb equaled the Witness in this game as we almost killed him (or at least I seriously considered pushing him). Once he made his empath play I was able to figure out who he was and what he was doing, but the wolves not knowing who the cultist is, and even that there is a cultist, is a disadvantage.

A special ability in which when a wolf is lynched he is revealed as a villager instead of a wolf...there has also been a brutal wolf who kills someone when he is lynched, as well as many other secret roles. If we had secret roles like witness and the posse, its hard for me to imagine in someway they didnt recieve extra help, be it a 4th wolf or secret roles of their own...id bet on a brutal or cunning out there

I had the idea, just on the wrong guy as i thought dubb might be the brutal and raiders a cunning...nice game again wolfs

Why? It's very hard to kill people that are going against you without raising suspcion. That's a big reason why we kept knocking off the quiet players, of which Dubb was one. Don't forget that the witness basically equals a dead wolf by Day 3.

12-27-2005, 09:43 PM
I tried to make this as balanced as I could. I figured that a "base" game is 3 wolves (1 of them brutal), 1 seer, 1 herbalist, and 11 villagers. Here, I added a witness (+ for villagers), The Posse (small + for villagers), and a cultist (+ for wolves). Seemed alright to me... I hope that someone in the future, or I guess perhaps myself, messes with The Posse in the future.

RPI-Fan
12-27-2005, 09:46 PM
FTR, Raiders & Schmidty tried to get dubb & ardent (not necessarily in that order). I believe the dubb kill was in my inbox first too. If you guys had gotten The Posse to knock off dubb, that would have been huge.

12-27-2005, 09:54 PM
nice game everyone! i have to echo the sentiments of others that Blade is a scary player...i didnt think barkeep had a chance of surviving once he was in Blade's sight.

I would like to point out to those saying that the cultist was basically unkillable, that i tried really hard to kill him instead of dying myself, which would basically have given the game away, as his midgame move turned this into an unloseable situation for us. Great job barkeep and wvufan...i would have been onboard with all the kills you made if it werent for the fact that my rotting pelt was hanging from a tree somewhere.


thanks RPI, great job....see you all in the demons game :)

Grammaticus
12-27-2005, 10:42 PM
Well, I pretty much hosed that game. It took me a long time, but when it came down to the last two days, I figured Blade was good and was pretty much going to follow whatever direction he took.

Well, the whole witness thing is kinda like a freebie, but honestly the wolves could decide not to make a night 1 kill (fake out). The fact they were able to ID the witness, pretty much takes out the ability to use a lot of deception. It probably would have been just as good if you had 2 wolves and no witness. Actually, probably better for the villagers.

I don't know how I feel about the posse, the rules just seemed too convoluted and extreme for it to ever work.

Good game to all, RA had me fooled up one side and down the other. And Dubb's play was awesome. I think Blade pointed out somewhere that both of Dubb's player identifications were probably villagers. When I read that, I really thought that made sense, but it was so hard to listen to that internally.

Also, I now understand why people want to gun for the silent players.

Actually I wouldn't have went along with them trying to kill me. On day 1 I tried to hint support for Saldana, but on day 2 he came out gunning for me and I went back at him. Only late in the day b/f Gram revealed his role did I unvote him, hoping Gram was out for the night.

I had my fake reveal planned from day 1, I was just waiting for a chance to frame 2 villagers. In my mind, I felt taking a shot @ killing off 3 people that count as villagers was more important than saving 1 wolf. So if Barkeep had pushed me he probably would have ended up dead too.

I'm just surprised at your willingness to die. Had I had the role, I wouldn't have been so willing.

In my mind/opinion, being dead at the end of the game doesn't mean you've won, even if your team does end up winning.

I believe that is where we differ in thought. I feel that if I was a villager and die and the villagers end up winning I didn't win. But on the other side it is completely different. Sometimes on the other side you HAVE to sacrifice yourself, and that is exactly what I did. In dieing I set up RA and the winning kill.

When i was the turncoat, the famous like 5 fake role reveals i pulled game surmounting in the newspapers reporters assistant, i survived and won with the wolves. Speaking myself, if i had died but the wolves won i still would have felt like i lost. If i die, i lose...regardless of who wins ultimately...

Wow, thanks again guys...i really just got lucky on a few reads, nothing more. If i was a good player the villagers would have won as i had a few reads down pat and couldnt change a thing(dacman, sun, and taz still got killed, barkeep lived). Saldana just got unlucky to get witnessed. The wolves played a great game, and all the kudos go to them.

Sorry to let you down then...after dacman and taz, i got to the point where i was dismayed that no one was listening to me and basically just gave in to the group momentum. If i hadnt, and had stuck to barkeep, we might still be playing and closing in on the win. I apologize to my whole team for letting them down

You didn't let us down, we just hosed ourselves. I was so bent on testing RA that I was not vocal about much else. What I meant was, I should have listened to my instincts about what you were saying earlier, because you were pretty much on the right track. About the only instinct of mine that was right, was dacman being good.

You did really well and I learned a good bit from this game. It is difficult to really peg who is full of crap and who is not.

In my mind/opinion, being dead at the end of the game doesn't mean you've won, even if your team does end up winning.

when i am a villager, i agree with this idea...being dead but killing all the wolves doesnt count as a win for me, but as a wolf, if the wolves win and your death counted for something, i still count it as a win...which i do for myself even though i was dead on day two...we (the wolves) assumed that the witness would be one of the newer players and that he would use his role on the first chance he had instead of trying to save it for a more tactical time in the game, so i volunteered to make the kill knowing that i would be seen because i was the only wolf with no special role...basically i took one for the team, and it worked out because WVUFan was able to knock out the posse by sending in an action that disbanded them, and barkeep would have been crushing to you all if he had been lynched. add the fact that my play on day 2 caused enough confusion to leave you all with no idea who the other wolves were, and i think i did enough to call this one a win even though i was dead for 2/3 of the game.

and Blade, you are very welcome, all the praise is well earned, which i think explains why you get killed on the first day all the time...and you will forgive me if i take a certain amount of ego points from the fact that i had you fooled on day 2. :D

I'm really surprised at the dead/not-dead school of thought. I think those who feel they lose if they die hurt the villagers. Some of my "wacky" villager plays are designed to reveal information, even if it means I die before the game ends.

I think next time I run a game, I'll emphasize that you wni equally if you die or are alive at the end, as I think that migh thave an effect on gameplay.
