Not neccesarily. I've already said I may switch my vote to Blade, which obviously means I haven't been told *who* to vote for, or that it makes no difference. I realize I may be playing this a little bit too openly. At any rate, I don't think there is any danger of a dogpile on ardent. |

I'm glad I got that vote out there -- seems to have stirred up some debate (the villager's best friend in a werewolf game, usually). That being said...
Unvote Blade6119. Vote Mr. Wednesday Execute. After consideration, I see no reason for Blade to make a play like that if he were a bad guy.

Doesn't talking about 'making him talk' defeat the purpose of the play?
For now, I guess I'm going to leave my vote on him -- I see no other candidates, and if I continually switch my vote, that looks rather foolish. Pass -- I've deduced (though he's trying to convince me not to now) that I should believe him. Not much more to it than that. Also, now that I've voted, I have to have someone voted for at all times, so I can't just say 'unvote blade,' because that wouldn't (according to the rules) change my vote at all.

I'll back McSweeny on this one a little bit:
I'm interested in knowing who the other faction leader(s) is/are, since they are known nobles and because they are secondary opposition. My biggest interest is figuring out who is part of my faction, but figuring out the other roles (both assassins and other factions) isn't too far behind. Thus, I don't think that trying to deduce who the other faction leader is particularly wolfish behavior. Sure it benefits a wolf to know this, but if the blackmail is a Night 0 only opportunity, then is there really any greater value of this noble versus another noble for the wolves? If they take down the faction leader another person in the faction will assume his mantle - it isn't like the faction goes without a leader. Unless I'm really not recalling the rules very well, which is possible on Day 1 .... |

Pass, everyone who is a noble should know the identity of their faction leader. I know that I'm aware of my faction leader. I know that I received a message last night.

Is blackmail a night 0 only option? I'm going to go re-read the rules to find out. If so, wouldn't it behoove the nobles to wipe out the leaders early, if only to avoid the potential of a blackmailed noble leader? The point penalty would be severe, but the reward would be great. I'm not suggesting it as a potential course of action yet, but as a source of discussion. Would this be a plausible strategy?

Completely ignore the post above -- I hadn't fully read the blackmail rules yet.
So they could have blackmailed anyone. Hrm.

Double dola --
I'm probably not going to be around much tomorrow -- I open at work, and am not usually an early riser. So I probably won't be online until after work (~4:30 PST), and then I have a softball playoff game tomorrow night. So I'll have to slog through everything, and then put a vote in. If I'm still alive, that is -- you never can tell what's going to happen.

:sigh: I haven't played a ww game in a while and I forgot how confusing things get sometimes.
If I read correctly, blade voting for Wednesday is to fish out somebody. st.cronin is voting based on something he deduced from a pm and the other votes seem to be because blade cast the first stone. I have no idea who to vote for. |

Ok, I'm out of here in a few minutes, and until then I'm going to be paying bills and other such nonsense. So good luck tonight gentlemen -- looks like I'm sticking with Mr. Wednesday.

Time to start thinking about a vote ...
I've got nothing for or against the people involved in the voting patterns so far: 1.) Blade vs MrW 2.) Cronin vs Ardent Has anyone else received votes besides Blade, MrW, and AE? I'm starting to form an initial circle of trust but I don't see any value-add in discussing it within this forum since that would provide linkage to my faction. I'm not inclined to cast a vote for the silent guy because I don't believe that wolves take the first day off from posting (Desnudo, Pennywise, and RPI are beneficiaries of this belief). So removing my early trust group, the four finger-pointers, and three silent guys I'm left with a little less than half the group to choose from. Random number generator at this point would be nearly as strong an argument as I have for picking the person I ended up choosing. Hopefully it helps with auditing voting patterns later and in an ideal world would lead to an assassin lynch. EXECUTE DUBB93 And, just to set the record straight, it has zero to do with our last werewolf game where I felt like he played a very good game as a villager. In fact, that thought almost kept me from firing my initial vote in this direction. But post #141 "You guys seem to have actually gotten good messages from your leader, all I got was my leader wanting to be crowned." left me a little anxious. At this point I think there are only two factions and that your leader message doesn't seem to gel with anything other people have posted up until now. |

I will count all such votes before now but make sure the vote is the last thing int he post. It makes it FAR easier for me to count votes.

Well, if you can trust me on this one hoops...I CAN (and will) back up dubb's statement, now that you brought it up. I must of glossed over it the first time around. But, the message from my faction leader was indeed a "let's get me crowned" message. I'll go out on a limb and stick my neck out for dubbs here. |

That's interesting, hoopsguy. I didn't notice that post by dubb. Should we ask for people in his faction to defend him (I mean, other people should have received the same message).
Also, I might add, that I've only seen one person follow the instructions my leader has given. So my guess is there are more than just two factions. |

hoops -- not sure if this will change your vote at all, but here are my thoughts on the factions.
Two different possibilities here --
I have come to the conclusion that there are 3 different factions, and the assassins. Four assassins to start seems incredibly stacked towards the assassins, as they are assured of at least 2 possible converts (Fast Talkers) and one potential blackmail, making a total of 7 Assassins possible at one time. I think that's just too much. On top of that, the assassins can 'get tired' of fast talkers -- I don't think that would come into play with only two potential fast talkers, so I would assume there are three -- one for each faction. I guess this doesn't include the possibility that there are additional fast talkers beyond the guaranteed one per faction, but I still think there are three factions. Any other reasons to execute Dubb other than post #141?

And further, while I'm not going to change my vote yet (because I don't for the life of me have any idea WHO to vote for now), I now think I have figured out why Blade voted how he did and when he did, and believe him to be on the up and up. If I'm not just second/third/fourth guessing myself, it was/is a badass strategy.

Sigh. I hate to pile onto anyone right now, but the only even REMOTE suggestion that clicks with me at this point is the twitch from McSweeny. I feel confident I've figured out that Blade fiasco, and as I've got mostly jack anywhere else...
(and for anyone questioning execute instead of jail...I don't believe jailtime serves us any purpose right now. We need SOME sort of real voting record to work with.) Unvote Blade Vote McSweeney Execute |

Honestly, I think the voting record would be fine from the jail votes as well -- it just doesn't tell us anything because we don't find out who/what the jailbird was.
Pass -- when you say three in your faction, are you including yourself and your leader? So you've only identified one other person? Also, for Barkeep -- how are you determining first votes when people change their vote? Each vote is it's own entity (ie, I vote for X as the first vote, and he is a noble, then I change to Y as a first vote for him, and HE is a noble as well, do I get both penalties?), or is the final vote that I make in one day the only one that affects my points?

alright, i guess i've got to act in self-preservation mode now huh? Blade's reasoning was rather cryptic and his vote was alarmingly quick. There's too much of this "i know something you guys don't and i won't be telling you or doing anything to alleviate your fears" for my liking. So with that....
