I don't think we assume that at all.

We need to hear from Schmidty on whether or not the 20% hit.

holy crap, the regular flying mount is slower than dogshit...i need 6K gold in a hurry!!!!!

So until we hear from Schmidty we are at day 1 all over again, I see no reason to not jail BK, dangerous as a wolf but if Schmidty can clear him he would be a great King.

wtf are you people babbling about? :confused:

Agree. The regular flying mount is a waste of time.

our other addiction besides WW...ironically, only one letter different, WoW. (world of warcraft)

epic riding is faster, but for mining, the flyer is gonna be good...tamed a new pet last night too...got myself a fire-breathing dragonhawk!

do you think BK would have taken out Hoops on N1? that is not a play i see him making, unless it was because he assumed hoops would be the scan....even so, no way the seer is going to reveal that he cleared hoops this early, so killing him now wouldnt really be needed.

it's dangerous to go too far down the path of assuming that any one wolf has total control over wolf-actions though - oftentimes i've been in discussions where someone will push for one person and then somebody else will sway them, or they will switch it up just to keep us guessing.

i think using "who was killed" as a way to try to figure out who's a wolf, particularly this early in the game, but largely for the entirety of the game, isn't much better than picking at random.

isnt he king until hes dead? we dont have to re elect him...

unless you are suggesting lynching Schmidty?

I have no idea, maybe the wolves thought they saw something in Hoops posts.

All I know is if we can clear BK without a see reveal I think thats a tremendously helpful thing for us because we can make him King.

I don't want to jail BK because I think it is any more likely he is a bad guy, I want to jail him in the hopes the 20% hits and we can clear him.

We would need to lynch him, and show me where I suggested that??

In fact, I stated the exact opposite

I would think we'd want to wait until the King has done something, acted on his power, before lynching as we could then get some info from it. Or not acted enough times that we get suspicious.

and how does pass get out of jail? its not a set sentence, is he simply stuck there until the wolves spring him?

Lathum, I don't understand why you're focusing on Barkeep. Woudln't it be just as useful to clear anybody?

actually your post reads like you dont understand that hes elected for life :P

Well it appears he didn't check in before he left so we have to wait a while to hear about Pass


Well we really don't have much else to discuss with no lynch and no word from Schmidty.

How do you get that from my post, have you even been reading the thread?

It was mentioned SEVERAL times that the first king probably gets lynched early, and yesterday I even asked if the only way to replace a King was to lynch them, I obviously understand the mechanic.

I find it hilarious you are suggestin I didn't know the rules yet you are asking this question. The King releases him.

I don't like the way you are playing. I know as a wolf I sometimes am a little lax about knowing the rules early on.

I don't believe this at all.

I think BK is best suited to be King so it is more valuable to have him cleared then other players like say, Clap, who obviously hasn't even read the rules or the whole thread.

So, you think he's best suited just because of your feelings about him as a player? Okay.

However, if we want to clear a player we're really going to need a seer scan. Or else Schmidty to clear them and us to lynch/scan Schmidty.

Well we can't scan Schmidty.

am I the only one who picked up on the fact that when Schmidty was elected it was pretty much a foregone conclusion he would be lynched pretty early on?

re:clap - this i agree with looking at

im always lax about the rules lathum.......

I have read the rules, alebeit belatedly, and how the hell do you get this? I have shown no indication of not knowing the ruels.

...

doesnt mean that is the only way....... we also know the wolves can break him out.... might be others!

that's not what you said.

You asked how he gets out and if he is stuck there.

You made no indication to having any knowledge of how the mechanics work.

I would rather not depend on a Schmidty backing of BK for clearance, given how Schmidty was nommed for his current position. Pretty much, BK is the last person I would vote to jail right now (if the intent of that jailing is for clearing).

I disagree.

Schmidty clears BK then for BK to be elected king we need to lynch Schmidty in which case we learn Schmidtys alligience.

If he is good no reason for hiim to engage in shenanagins with BK.

I agree Chief, I think we need to jail people just as we usually lynch them, with the added bonus that we may get them cleared at some point. I'm going to look at the post list and see who's been quietest.

I like that, except it could be days and days before we find out anything about BK from Schmidty.

I would imagine BK would be an early seer scan anyway, cant hurt to give Schmidty a crack at it

We won't know if Schmidty scanned Pass until 5ish, right?

Or at least if he got a result, I imagine if he decided to kill him wed've heard about it

So, here's the bottom of the posts list:

MartinD 5
USFLTecmo 5
SnDvls 4
lerriuqs 4

I will probably vote for one of these to go to jail and send us some nice newspaper articles.

I hate my job.... just so you all know!

Lathum makes some good points about using the mechanic to guide our decision making on a decent king, he's also spot on that BK, based on his play style and his attention to detail would make a fantastic king.

Personally though wouldn't it just be quicker to get a seer scan and somehow get that info out? I know its hard to do so without giving the seer away but I'm sure whomever that is could manage the task.

I have no issues with this strategy, UTR players always give me the heebie-jeebies, but mostly just CR. :)

And Like Lathum I'm not real thrilled with clap's play atm, that could be just his lassez-faire style or it could be him trying to be sneaky, hard to tell wich.

+1

bah, im never sneaky! sadly :(

I'm going to poick Sndvls out of a hat, simply because I haven't played with him before (I don't think) and I know I've been on all three of the others in previous games for being quiet. If there is reason to pick someone else I'm willing to listen.

VOTE SNDVLS TO GO TO JAIL

Sndvls did say he'd be busy today with the twins' birthday, which is a reason I might lean towards someone else.

Especially if you're trying to encourage activity

Activity is highly overrated ;)

I'm on for the day time, just not night.

I have no problem with going to jail if it helps, but I have nothing to provide info wise as I'm just a villager.

has Schmitdy been on today?

I'd like to know if he's gotten anyting on the convict.
