Duke


:rolleyes:

Another villager checking in. Maybe I'll survive longer this game with none of that bandit craziness that we had last time.

Our votes are due by 6am CST? If so, I better get to voting soon.

6AM is for night actions. It looks like 7PM is the voting deadline.

:eek:

Cool. That means I don't have to break out the randomizer too early then.

I'm not in this game, so your odds are better. :)

Well so much for that. I couldn't resist the random number game.

I got 13, so

VOTE SIRFOZZIE

What does a 9 mean?

Let's hope we get lucky and the descendant sees a vampire early ,....like tonight!

Some of you guys need to clean out your PM box :D

Night 1
You sleep uneasily tonight, not knowing what is in store for you. You wake in the morning and come down the stairs into the great hall. Everyone is here, and there was no signs of a struggle last night. Hopefully no-one was attacked.

I'm here, but I'm waiting until I see more activity to vote.

9 would be dubb93 to me, but ardent enthusiast to you (not counting you in the equation when you're the one randomly choosing, since you can't vote yourself).

Got to love the first day.

Should we all just vote for Lathum now and get it over with? I mean his posts make him sound like the Duke might as well give him what he wants. Something to remember is that the Duke could be changed to a vampire at any time.

Would he lose his Duke "powers" at the time of conversion?

Do we really think he would ask to be lynched if he was the Duke? He can use his powers when anyone gets lynched, so it doesn't really make sense to bring attention on himself. It is also too early for him to know who to go after. I don't know why he is talking wolf-like, unless he is going to claim to be a wolf and not a vampire? Do people smell tasty to vampires?

Ugh. The good news is, if we kill a master vampire.. any thrall vampires go up with him, so we have a chance, but every day, there likely will be another member of the vampiric gang up on us.

Our best chance at not being tasty meat with blood sauce snacks for a vampire is to vote your best guess in Round 1.. spread the vote around. Force the Vampires to ake themselves pick a person to vote for to save their own necks. If we spread votes out amongst five or six people, then they can't force a bandwagon onto a target of the vampires choosing.

So, to start things off at least for me..

I VOTE FOR MR SIMPERLESS

Spread it around early? Sounds good.

I vote blade6119

He is accusing people of being tasty. Sounds like a vampire or some other undesirable to me. Also, I don't think he is the Duke, but I'll take that chance.

I vote Lathum.

I am assuming my vote for Sirfozzie is still good. No offense, Sirfozzie. You were randomly selected.

I'm not sure about the spread it around plan. I'd rather vote out someone who isn't participating. I'd like to vote for blade - he has only posted once in the thread (to say he wanted in the game). My thinking is that if he's not a werewolf, at least we won't be voting out somebody who's actively helping.

If we all just spread the votes around, don't you think the vampires will do the same? And if there's a tie with one vote for everyone, the last person to vote really decides who's lynched all by themselves.

I'm open to trying out the strategy, I'm just not sure what it buys us. So, if I'm missing something, try to explain it to me.

I agree. I used to not, but Peregrine brought up a good point in the other WW thread.

No matter who you lynch, chances are they are going to be innocent and that it was a dumb reason to lynch them. Might as well vote off the guy who may go awol.

So anyone want to admit they are the vampire?

I like the strategy of voting for the non posters first. If you are gonna gamble may as well have some purpose.

I VOTE BLADE6119

With out any evidence I always vote for the person who isn't posting

I vote for Blade

And the mob begins to stir.

I like the idea of keeping the vote spread out for now, so I'll follow that plan. Absolutely no rhyme or reason to this...

Vote ardent enthusiast

The odds are, if we spread our vote over 5 or 6 targets, each getting two or three votes each, that at least one Vampire will be caught in the net. They then will have to scramble to cover their asses, because with that many votes spread, all it takes is one or two switches at the end to catch em and stake em. That means they'll have to work together to make sure it's not one of them who gets it.

That's not so useful in Day 1, especially if we get a villager.. but day 3 or 4? Hell yes, it helps.

Also, it forces people to defend themselves... which is useful for catching people in lies.

I still want to know why he's going to lynch himself.

Very true. However, if everyone votes "Randomly" it also makes the voting patterns more difficult to analyze. However, I definitely see the merits in this plan.

Just a quick vote count if I missed any sorry:

Sirfozzie 1 - ae
mrsimperless 1 - sirfozzie
blade 3 - BrianD, Lathum, Kevin
Lathum 1 - Eaglesfan
ae 1 - mrsimperless

I haven't seen this plan yet, but I like it. Keep them vampires confused.

I vote BrianD because he's usually some kind of evil.

Taking the quiet ones on day one route.

I vote Blade6119.

I vote Lathum

why i don't really konw, but if we're spreading out votes i'll push one his way, sorry!

just to be random about it
I vote Fouts

Ok. I'll go along with the spread out the votes plan. But if we're doing that, we should probably keep it with the 5-6 guys that already have votes right now. It does us no good to have every single one of us vote for somebody different. So I'll randomly vote for somebody to give him his 2nd vote and even things up a little.

Vote SirFozzie

Current vote count (I think - somebody correct me if I'm wrong)

Sirfozzie 2 - ardent enthusiast, KWhit
mrsimperless 1 - sirfozzie
Blade6119 4 - BrianD, Lathum, Kevin, jeff061
Lathum 2 - Eaglesfan, illinifan
ardent enthusiast 1 - mrsimperless
Fouts 1 - ntndeacon
BrianD 1 - fouts


Blade's starting to run away with it a little bit.

lol, two games in one day...well, anyway...im checking in and ill add my 2 cents

Vote Lathum

I'm voting this way for 2 reasons.

#1, either Lathum is the duke and to reveal himself like this means he MAY have some inside information. Don't know how this early, but just prehaps he does.

#2 Lathum tried to make us think he is the duke to throw us off and he is really a vampire. I have no clue, so at this point, both of these options sound good to me.

Vote Lathum

Nothing much to go on, but I like dubb93's explaination, so:

Vote Lathum

Whoa! Can't anyone make a joke around here.

And it is obvious Blade is just trying to get attention off himself. Voting for me is a mistake, I am a simple villegar.

I would seriously look at Blade. He sits back and watches the voting then jumps in really late, then Schmidty jumps in, pretty suspiscious.

I mean really, has a wolf/vampire EVER been vocal early on?

If I am lynched you all better take a close look at Schmity, Dubb and Blade. Their voting pattern is WAY to suspiscous. C'mon people.

Well it would be a potentially very smart strategy to make such a comment and then just pretend it was a joke. I'll stick by my vote. I think you are a vampire trying to hide in plain sight as it were.

Sorry Lathum, got nothing to on right now, so I have to have something. To be honest I thought you were the duke, if something else comes up, I may just change my mind, it is EARLY in the game. My vote is far from set right now, I'm taking a hard look at Blade, something shady is going on there.

Everything I do in these games seem to be very suspicious, that's why I always die on the first or second day. :)

Honestly, I had nothing to go on, and didn't have time to pick apart everyone's posts, so I looked at the front runners, read that one dude's post, and picked you. Sorry, but dems, the breaks.

To add something, Lathum actually defended himself, which may, if he stays around hurt him in the long run. Blade comes in, sees he is getting voted heavily, and just plays it off. I may be changing my vote, as big of a no-no as that is.

Voting 8 minutes after Blade makes you look suspicous. When it is discovered I am a villegar you are gonna look, real, real, bad

Some of you stragels should switch over or you will be making a mistake.

Very odd delayed bandwagon on Lathum. If he's lynched I suggest we look at who started and/or supported it.
