It doesn't. I am guessing 3 wolves, maybe incorrectly, but that would seem more likely than 2 with a stray role in play.

I don't know, I think I know. I am not going to tip my hand too early. I want to give everyone a chance to talk it out so I can either change my opinion or solidify it.

Oddly enough one of the last few games in which I played you were a wolf and making this exact argument. "It's too obvious to be a wolf play" You then proceeded to turn up as a wolf.

I also think it is interesting how quick Jackal voted, means he wins in a tie.

Let me lay out some thoughts:

Jackel:
IIRC his post came like 5 minutes after deadline? So in 5 minutes he got his PM and read it and had an entire self-discussion about coming out or not and managed to type up that post and post it? That seems really really quick. Makes me think that that scenario someone posted (forget who) about why it would make sense numerically as a fake reveal may be true. Came out early without any pressure. Only viewed Schmidty so has no corroberation.

Schmidty:
Was the second reveal. Said Lathum was good (corroberated by him). What else am I missing as a negative on Schmidty?

I feel like I'm missing something in the case against Schmidty and that's causing me to hold back on laying a vote yet - any thoughts EF?

DT, just wanted to point out what was pointed out to me as I was saying the same thing. Schmidty didn't say Lathum was good, just that he didn't do anything night one. He followed him and saw nothing.

You bring up a point I didn't even look at which is the timing of Jackal's post. I'll have to look at that a little farther. Granted, since it looks like he was online when everything was going down it could be possible as it depends on when he received the PM and not when the post of the results happened.

The only case against Schmidty is from the Jackal reveal so it depends on who you believe.

If Jackal is a wolf there is also the approximate 1 in 6 shot that he happens to reveal and pick the person who actually has the role in which he is revealing to "out".

good point semantically there EF about what Schmidty said about Lathum

The speed at which Jackel came out with it and the level of thought he put into the process of coming out just seem "off" a bit. Like I've done reveals right after deadline based on info I just got and they're typically very rushed. Jackel's seemed very well put-together.

Thinking about this a little more. If Jackal is a wolf and fake reveals there are a few options that could happen:

1) There is no actual stray role in the game. In this case it's almost a slam dunk for the wolves as there would be no counter reveal and it could come down to his word aganst Schmidty's who would not have anything to come back with other than "I'm not a wolf".

2) There is a stray and it's not the person he outs. In this case he could have just built a CoT as the real stray may come out and reveal who they followed which could give us two people to eliminate from suspicion (the outed person and the real stray).

3) There is a stray and it's the person outed. It's now claim versus counter claim.


Usually a wolf would only fake reveal quickly if he were caught doing something at night. Jackal was not caught doing something as far as we know since Schmidty came out saying he followed Lathum and saw nothing.

It still keeps coming back to the numbers game which I threw out as a possibility. With the wolves up two people already it would not make sense to fake reveal until they see where today starts to go. UNLESS there was already another wolf under the gun day one, in that case they could make the number game move to try to "win" the game with that move. Time to look back at yesterday a bit closer.

This statement bothers me. Why would the real stray need to say that last sentence?

I am probably overthinking things.

For the record though it is true. In one game a spy saw me attack someone who was converted and then outed me and the convert pretty much stacking the odds too far against the wolves that game.

That actually gives the wolves a little incentive to try to bring out the real spy if that is the case, hoping if Schmidty is not the spy that the real spy would reveal.

vote Schmidty

If he is good we stay away from Jackal tomorrow as he is the brutal and needs to be the last one to go so we can win with a sole survivor if we get the other(s).

Other suspects:
Pass - something doesn't sit well with his day one flopping
Abe - was he being saved?

If Schmidty is good these two go right to the top of my list.

Other:
Lathum - always good to look his way where wolves are concerned

If he is a wolf fake revealing it would only make sense for him to do so as the brutal, especially since he was not in danger. If they are playing the numbers game they want the brutal used early to get that win condition.

The idea is that if Schmidty is good, then we'd go after The Jackal next, and the wolves know it -- so if we go after him, they'd make us lose another one.

You saved Abe. If the reveal was due to worry that a wolf was in danger and to try to avert our attention it could very easily be because not only was Abe in the running but your vote to save him would be looked into.

I saved Lathum -- Abe didn't have any votes on him at the end of Day 1.

That's right. Wow, what was I thinking. This makes things much different. I need to rethink things even more. I had remembered there being Abe votes and thought he was a target (probably confusing this with last game).

Abe had a couple votes for a while, from both me and Lathum. Then I unvoted Abe to vote Lathum, and Lathum unvoted Abe to vote me. But all that was well before deadline.

I've been back and forth between this and getting flooded with work emails. Hopefully I haven't answered any of them with WW references. I just remember the Abe thing standing out for some reason, have to see why.

That changes my opinion on the vote a little now. It would make more sense that Schmidty would follow Lathum than Jackal would follow PF with Lathum being in trouble day one and PF being silent. I can't speak for Jackal but my list of who to follow for day one would have been Lathum, Pass, Abe with PF not cracking the top 3.

I really need to stop overthinking things.

I followed PF on a gut feeling that he was either a wolf or that he'd be targeted .. I knew the people in the vote wouldn't be targeted and I figured the seer would scan at least one of them.

Right, I just answered EF's points from 336. I assumed that none of Lathum, Abe, and Pass would be targeted for the kill, and I wasn't convinced at the time that any of them were wolves. PF on the other hand, playing it silent, could've been the seer/bodyguard or a wolf, and boy did I predict their attack well.

Futhermore, if I was a wolf trying for delay tactics, why would the wolves nominate someone who didn't even have a vote on them the first day to fake a reveal? I wasn't under any heat, if I was a wolf, it would've been dumb.

I'm a writer, that's the only reason I can come up with that my reveal was "well put-together." Another reason I went for it so early is because I didn't want to wait until close to the deadline or give the wolves a chance to successfully deflect the attention if I tried to go after Schmidty and no one else followed.
