Right, but they're not saying "I think clap is the most likely player to be a wolf." They're saying "I need to vote for somebody, and I can find reasons to vote for clap." |

Nobody has even commented on the fact that Barkeep has been manipulatively dishonest.

Haha you used my real name In that case, you're right that cronin made a diversionary statement, but then he barely said anything the rest of that first day. And we were all villagers at that point. Are you saying he was being wolfish on day 1?? |

I guess I just don't understand how literally 8 people can go from not posting a thing about even leaning towards trusting clap to now's he's this mega-super-duper-trusted guy who was some stellar conversion candidate all along.
That's the disconnect. Who knows, maybe I'm the red-ass who's wrong here, but that logic just doesn't add up to me. |

Heinz, I think the more appealing argument for Clap would be "we have a positive data point for him - is that true for anyone else?" rather than "the fortune teller reveal bought no trust".
Again, I'm not changing my vote but I think you are making a very tough argument that is loosely supported by the posts in the thread. If Fortune Teller = seer (assumption) and a player is cleared by the seer, then that builds trust universally in werewolf games. Discussion on the relative merits of this by a small group of people does not diminish the fact that it builds trust. The lack of people digging their heels in to defend the complete trust of this reveal does not (to me, anyway) suggest that most clear-headed people didn't assign some greater measure of trust to this individual than the median. |

In a game where conversion is likely (now appears to be a certainty), it is not unheard of for people to think that someone is pretty darn trustworthy and not say anything about it, so as not to draw too much attention from the wolves. Just because people didn't jump up and down saying "He's Good!" doesn't mean he wasn't among the most trusted of us all. |

I'd say how come this is the first time, with 8 minutes to deadline, this has been mentioned as a reasoning. I mean if that was a reasoning all along, that changes things. But to put in the All-Pro QB in a tie game in the 4th quarter hardly changes my opinion to that effect. |

Anyone else find it troubling how the # of votes on significant people has gone down quickly at deadline?
If there's a no lynch, Taz, Lathum or Cronin (I know, shocker) gets my vote tomorrow, no diggity doubt about it. |

BARKEEP IS LYING, and people know it. Yet he has three votes. This is absurd.

Barkeep argued that I was in some way pushing for a no lynch, and I called him on it - his response was to pull up three quotes I made RIGHT AFTER a vote deadline.

I said I wasn't going to move my vote. Very disappointing play from the village if I end up lynched.

Gotcha, I see what you're saying. I hate to put words into BK's mouth, but that's along the lines of your questioning and being at ease with not worrying about hitting a certain % to lynch someone (you thought the tie and the arrest caused the first two). Maybe that's what he was getting at? I don't know, that was my take on it. I thought the lie was something I missed altogether. |

Dude. There is no way you can interpret anything I have posted in this game as arguing for a no lynch. And you certainly can't use posts made AFTER a deadline as trying to persuade anybody's vote one way or the other. That's deceitful. I am very sure that Barkeep is a wolf, and has pulled the wool over your eyes. |

No, I wouldn't say that you *pushed* for a no lynch. I'd say though that you've been very unconcerned up until maybe the tail end of this vote that we would need to worry about hitting a certain # of votes or % of votes to get a lynch. I agree that of the 3 posts BK quoted, the first two are irrelevant. The last one though, I'd say is incorrect on your part. |

I would also look hard at Passacaglia, his handling of the drugs has been very questionable in my eyes. The most village friendly thing he could have done would have been to dose me, or really, anybody. But he held onto them.

Compared to Barkeep, who has pushed for a runaway every day since day 0? Or compared to the several people who haven't bothered to vote, even saying "I'm not voting today?" |

Deadline has passed. If there's a lynch, buck sez Cronin is a villager.
If not, I really need to sit back and watch more. |

Regardless of the rules of the game, I am always going to vote for the person I think most likely to be a wolf. That's why I have voted for KWhit and Barkeep, instead of piling on to whoever the vote leader was. I may be wrong about both of them, but Barkeep knows that's how I play, and for him to try to paint my play this game as devious or counter to the interests of the village is wrong, and I think he did it on purpose.

I'd rather have someone get lynched than no one. So I'd (barely) prefer a runaway to a no-lynch. As far as the no-voters, I agree, that's a big problem. But they just aren't the fish to fry today. Maybe the wolves are playing an UTR game this time, I don't know. I haven't seen that much on this board though, and i'm not inclined it's the case. I mean let's face facts, at least one of the major conversation pushers is likely a wolf (8 of us have over 97 posts, then the next most drops to 78). Could our wolves be Olie (24), NTN (25), Taz (33) and KWhit (37)? Sure, but I don't believe it. At least not by themselves. |

As you arrive in Montego Bay, you watch the ship dock at the port. Once everything has been tied up and secured, the Captain opens the gates and waves you on your way to enjoy the day. If he was concerned about removing anyone today, you sure can't tell.
It is now the Event Response phase of turn 5. Remember this is an extended Weekend schedule, so please have your responses in by Saturday night 10pm EST. |
