Werewolf XLIV: The Fightin’ Fundies vs. Them Gays - GAME OVER

[Blade6119]

given a team*

[DaddyTorgo]

Awww Path...you're my beautiful wife? May the good lord cherish and enrich your soul dear...I am sure that he will provide for you a bountiful harvest so that you might be able to achieve your dreams my love.

[st.cronin]

I don't think it means much, Blade. My guess is that's more a way of organizing/limiting night actions.

[Blade6119]

Ill find out soon enough, unless someone else catches my eye

Thank you, my dear husband. I certainly do seem to be embracing my feminine side lately, thank the Lord.

[Blade6119]

So do we basically just sit around all day and wait for someone to be declared a liberal? Or like good ole times cant i just accuse someone of being one and we kill them(like the salem witch trials)

Our Lord works in mysterious ways, that is for certain. But we must trust in his rightousness.

[Blade6119]

Hey DT, path...anything either of you want to share about the little families we have? You seemed to indicate you knew you were cronins father, so do you have any knowledge of him?

[DaddyTorgo]

none at all. I have no knowledge beyond "you are father to this person, husband of this person"

I know that I am a fine and upstanding member of the church. I would presume that my wife and son attend with me, their absence would be a bit conspicuous

[Blade6119]

So you dont have any extra knowledge of game mechanics like your son is claiming to have? I just want to make sure i understand this point...

[bulletsponge]

just catching up. nothing to see here move along

[DaddyTorgo]

nope.

although (to play devil's advocate) I suppose it's possible he has a more powerful role than me, for the side of good as well. I don't know how LIKELY that is, but if anxiety used say...random.org to assign special powers after assigning "roles/families" then it could happen that my kid was the seer, or the bodyguard or whatever.

and I might catch heat for suggesting that. But I'm just raising the possibility. Right now nothing that's really gone down between cronin+you has me leaning either way.

[Blade6119]

My understanding from my own role is that our powers are strongly tied to our position within the community. My role and power relates heavily to my profession i hold. Thats why im pushing hard here, as i would assume you might know your sons job or standing in society.

I dont know if others have a similar connection in their role and their power, and dont expect anyone else to come out really. Just putting that out there for thought

nope. I have no idea of his job or standing. For all I know he could be a kid.

[LoneStarGirl]

Drama already? Oh dear, you fellas need to calm it down and pray some more. I am very confused on what to do without a liberal list so I am going to pray that God tells me who one of them Gays are so we can cast them out from our beautiful city.

[LoneStarGirl]

And I agree that Sister Marie should be considered liberal after her comments about... about... I cannot even say that dirty word. Blasphemy is all it is! Blasphemy!

[Lathum]

I'n not really sure what we are supposed to be doing here.

Did anyone else get a role in their PM? I did but I am not sure if I am supposed to say that?

[Blade6119]

I told you i did...i got a name, what job i hold in the community, and what power comes with it.

[Chief Rum]

I am leaving to spread the Lord's word for the day. Though I have my suspicions, it seems that none of you have been outed yet, so I will need to with hold the Lord's stoning vote in me. I leave it to my husband's will to vote for me, should a candidate arise while I am gone. For now, though.

VOTE NO STONING

I certainly don't, but Leroy has always been a special child, and maybe he has been chosen by the Lord to help us maintain the path to righteousness. I do not have any reason to doubt my beloved child.

You could give it a try, see what happens.

[st.cronin]

dola

I honestly have no idea what would happen if somebody tried to "officially" accuse somebody of being subversive.

well with Blade in the game its wont be long until we see it

There will be some of the faithful that will be percieved as liberal, as Brother Anxiety pointed out in the rules. I firmly believe that at least some of our loyal Sisters and Brothers will not have any tendency to appear on that list at all.

I pray however we find these unclean people quickly. We may be able to save them then (with God's help) I hear those gay retraining camp save many of them from continuing down thier path of sin and damnation.

[hoopsguy]

Allow me to say my piece on the matters at hand today. I have no reason to suspect that I have any liberal leanings in my heart. My parents raised me with proper respect for the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Only one who has lost their way spiritually could find comfort in pleasures of the body in a manner that these fornicators have seemingly embraced.

I am not able to vouch for either of my parents. Although it would sadden me greatly to learn of any deviant activity on their part, I am not possessed with any particular knowledge of their activities. I will seek over the course of the next few weeks to protect our community and honor the Lord.

I remain a little perplexed that the list of liberals remains empty. I was of the belief that at least one, if not more, people in our community had comported themselves in a manner that would require a listing.

Oh, im not sure your too wrong...i just think my choices would suprise you, and everyone for that matter. But thats what i love about WW, its all smoke and mirrors

[Blade6119]

Anxiety, is there a reason Bullet was not made a liberal? He made comments that very much resembled those you warned DT of...im still wondering what it takes to get on said list if not that.

I felt it was on teh line, actually just on the side of being liberal-ed. However, since it was close, and it was hte first thing all game, I would be a little lenient.

[Blade6119]

I didnt accuse you of being a liberal...trust me, you will know if i accuse you. Your not my priority now, though you are entertaining

[Blade6119]

Beargrowlz, next game..you playing...just so you know

[st.cronin]

How many different ways can Anxiety misspell "the"?

[Abe Sargent]

This post woud have been at 5:00 but my RHA meeting ran significantly over.


Since there is no one on the liberal list, you feel that you shouldn't waste your day. Therefore you may choose to vote someone as liberal and label them unmutual. A simple plurality of votes is needed to place someone on the list.

You are no longer able to vote for stoning today, no matter what happens over the last part of the day.

[DaddyTorgo]

oh. So no lynch tonight, but we can vote someone onto the list for tomorrow.

I don't know who i'd like to see up there...

[Ironhead]

At this point there are is less than 3 hours to add a name to the list. If I learned anything from reading past threads the most dangerous thing for the villagers is to lose a day without any information/voting patterns coming out of it.

As a firm believer in God and the sanctity of the family I feel it would be morally wrong at this time to place any member of the two families on the liberal list. That leaves me with seven other possible names:

Females
ntndeacon
LoneStarGirl
bulletsponge
Kwhit

Males
Lathum
Blade
Tyrith

Given that to this point only men have been found guilty of these acts against God and our community I feel that is the best place to start. Blade is at least posting and active at this point, and Lathum is an experienced player that could prove to help our community in the future. In the hopes of getting some discussion going I will:

VOTE TYRITH

Label them unmutual? I don't get it. Back to the rules.....

[Blade6119]

VOTE CHIEFRUM

Here is where i differ iron...i think at least one of the family members is a gay..therefore i see it like this

1 out of 6 for the family

1 out of 7 outside of family

1 random

So in my opinion, we have a better shot looking in the families then out. Chief is a good player, but has been very quiet so far. The first family(cronin, path, and DT) have all been active in posting. The other, not soo much...hoops stated he would be quiet for a day or two though, so its chief or ITC. Of those 2, chief scares me more.

[Tyrith]

The family line seems highly suspicious. The fact that some of us have the gift of singleness, as Saint Paul wished for us all to have, is not a reason for me to be labeled with such contempt. Alas, perhaps you have fallen into heathen ways?

Realistically, for the time being, I'm fairly clueless, so I'm going to reciprocate the vote given to me for lack of better options.

VOTE IRONHEAD

I too agree that there will likely be at least 1 member of Them Gays in the family. Anxiety's line about "stated genders" made me think that one of the spouses might be concealing their true self. But by simply looking at your own stated odds, we either have a 1 in 6 chance (16.7%) of getting a wolf by going after the family group or a 2 in 8 chance (25%) by going after the other grouping. I know that I am pure of these acts against God and ourcommunity, which increases the chances for that grouping to a 2 in 7 (28.5%) chance. Or I could just be confused since this is a strange game so far and my first Werewolf experience to boot. lol

[Tyrith]

No, Ironhead, the random would come from either group in the "random" case.

[Blade6119]

yes iron...this is prob. the most confused ive ever been in WW...dont be discouraged

[hoopsguy]

hoops stated he would be quiet for a day or two though

/ooc That is actually for next week. I was anticipating being available and active this week but had a client emergency today that severely curtailed my access. I'm hoping that won't be an issue going forward.

While the "family" argument would be convenient for me today (seeing as I'm a member of one) I don't think it is the proper filter for locating the miscreants in our town.

[DaddyTorgo]

hmmm. I don't have any brilliant thoughts about family vs. single people. no one has really...grabbed my attention yet. Prolly cuz this is one strange game of WW.

[hoopsguy]

That said, I'm in the same boat as everyone else in not really knowing where we can begin our hunt for sinners.

Given that we began with a Night 0, I'm going to conclude that some people had the ability to complete an initial action. Instinctively, I think that would probably include some gays looking for partners to convert to their perverted lifestyle.

I'm hoping that some of those who hold God in their hearts also were able to initiate actions to cleanse our community but the complete lack of direction provided up to this point makes this seem unlikely.

What concerns me is that we know the normal rules for day lynching have changed. What about night kills? Unless night actions provide valuable information to the village and no wolfs slip up during the daytime then there might only be a lynching during every two day phases. If night kills have not changed then that would give a serious advantage to the wolfs.

[Ironhead]

Ugh...no editing is going to drive me to drinking. I cannot believe I just typed "wolfs" and not "wolves". Proofreading is not my friend.

[DaddyTorgo]

well that and I can't stop playing OOTP. Trying to figure out why smokey joe wood + walter johnson have both become busts according to the scouts but are still pitching strong.

[hoopsguy]

I'm willing to change this vote if a real reason emerges to do so. But it is just about random at this point. I sense the capacity for evil and godlessness in this man, who is the self-described "Worlds greatest wolf".
