i hope danny bought him drinks and dinner first at least.

[CrimsonFox]

( and yes I know I stole that joke from Danny. one of my powers is to steal jokes)

[Danny]

I normally would never vote Hoops day 1, but he has seemed a little off this game so far. I don't really get a wolfy vibe from Zinto so far. Nor overly thrilled with our candidates overall.

Yes, I did him right.

[hoopsguy]

Explain how I've been "off my game", Danny. I'm around from now until deadline and can lock in on this to try and help us avoid making a mistake.

If someone feels strongly about a candidate, make a case. I'll vote Abe in self-defense if that is the choice being provided for me but I won't be all that wild about doing so.

[dzilla77]

Clearly a disturbed villager if you're stealing Danny's jokes.

[Chief Rum]

Not going to have a strong player like hoops out on Day One if I can help it.

And apologies to CF and Zinto--but they'll probably acknowledge hoops is a WW God of playing, and won't mind (too much) that I choose to try to save him over them.

VOTE ZINTO

[MrBug708]

I agree...not feeling the candidates

[Chief Rum]

I almost voted CF, so that if he went down, I would be able to keep up in this thread while busy at work.

[CrimsonFox]

what you mean you're actually playing chief? wow

[CrimsonFox]

gone already...nice driveby :P

[hoopsguy]

For what it is worth, I understand everyone gets their number called for an early lynch every now and again. If/when I'm around for it, I'll fight it tooth and nail but I get that it is part of the game.

But you aren't getting Two Face if you promote me as the lynch today. And you aren't getting any closer to figuring out who is Two Face either since I am not one of the people who know who he is. So the only thing you would be learning from today is who felt like it was time for me to get the short straw on Day 1.

[DaddyTorgo]

VOTE ZINTO

[Commo_Soldier]

I would have thought 6 pages would have taken longer then about 20 minutes to read, good thing, or bad, that is was about 150 posts, or at least seemed like, about music.

Some of my thoughts on todays posts about actual game stuff.

I think we're better off knowing that there could be two kills coming the next night or not.

I'm not sure I buy this. I think police should not reveal if they've made a block or not, regardless of how it happens. As someone else stated and quoted below, we will find out shortly if a conversion happened or not. I see nothing good that comes out knowing a block was made as we will still have 5 people we want to kill and just outed a BG. Even if they are a Martyr they can still be a martyr for an important role rather than just being NK'd.

Also, I quoted a few posts and will basically leave them here as a reference later on even if I don't refer to all of them as I found them interesting.

I guess it depends where we are in the game and who is revealing as the bodyguard. If the seer(s) is out of the game why not kill the bodyguard? It is probably important for the bodyguard to come out if they did a successfully block someone, since if they do not do so it is probably going to cause confusion during the next day if they do not.

What about the forensic people, they are just a tad below seers in terms of importance.

Originally Posted by Zinto

I can also see why the bodyguard would want to keep it a secret to who they blocked because unlike other games it does not clear the other person. To even get into more since the bodyguards can not protect themselves, they probably shouldn't block anyone the first few nights since a block on a vanilla villager is a poor exchange for a bodyguard.

For some reason as I was reading, I got a big wolf vibe on you because of all your posts on this subject. Partially because of them being in favor of possibly revealing or not even blocking. I think there should be blocks done as there is a 60% chance they block someone that is not a vanilla and it could prevent a disturbed from being converted or losing an important role. I'd take the chance.

Originally Posted by hoopsguy

Also, to chime in on the bodyguard thing - if there is a conversion won't we know 24 hours later if/when there is an extra kill? Given that we'll see the by-product of a conversion show up as a secondary kill, I'm not sure I agree that the best play is for a bodyguard to reveal. As previously noted, there may be situations where the martyr is preferable to the wolves getting to pick their kill. And if a bodyguard does go out as a martyr then they would definitely have done their job this game by denying the wolves their targets two separate times.

This was the post I was referring to and 100% agree with. Not sure why some are voting for you, will have to re-look at their reasons.

Originally Posted by Danny

Just to expand on that, but if the wolves want to target martyrs that is a good thing as it guarantees are more important roles live longer. I see no reason for a martyr not to reveal upon a block.

I could see this being useful, but I don't know if I'd want to have the wolves be guaranteed to take out a roled villager.

This is just because I agree with it after last game. I'm not a fan of your mentioning several times about being a disturbed citizen even if "in jest" as it is a perfect way for two-face to at least try to NK you. Unless you are just a vanilla, then keep it up.

Originally Posted by The Jackal

I'm thinking about the logic of a martyr revealing. Since there is the opportunity for a multiple kill/block situation on the same person, I would think the wolves would want to remove that opportunity in case an important role is forced to reveal. The less wolves required to kill one person, the better for them. Of course they can't speak to coordinate such attacks, so at least there's that.

Originally Posted by The Jackal

And I'm not sure if knowing there's going to be two kills the next night changes how the day goes. Though if the forensic officers go early, and a martyr gets killed without saying they got a block, then we'll be left in the dark if they don't hit multiple kills in the same night. So I guess I'm leaning towards more public info as well in terms of a martyr reveal.

I think even if a Martyr gets killed without saying there is a block we will find out shortly if there was a block or not. So it will eventually come out.

Originally Posted by hoopsguy

There are a bunch of potential scenarios that could play out:
1.) There is a night kill - no discussion
2.) There is no night kill, by the bodyguards know there was a block
3.) There is no night kill, and the bodyguards know there was no block

I thought the original argument was around #2, but post #225 sounds like you are adding in #3 as a case for reveals as well. Am I reading this correctly?

I also want to clarify now that I'm not a bodyguard, but I'm interested in some of the arguments that are being raised here because they don't coincide with my first instinct for how to play that role. Hopefully the folks who actually are the bodyguards are sitting back and taking this all in rather than inadvertently outing themselves by being too fervent in this discussion.

Didn't get that from any post, but could have missed it.

This is why I believe that we're heading down a dangerous path in terms of bodyguards revealing info on a non-kill day where they did not get the block. Because they would still have their block in hand and be unable to protect themselves. I can at least understand the logic if they got a block and are converted to martyr status, but I don't get it at all in scenario #3 I outlined above.

Again, agreed.

Not getting a bad vibe from Zinto or anything, but I know when I've had a role in the past like a lone wolf sometimes I just go ahead and straight ask a question about the role in the thread or talk about people looking for it to try and signal.

I'm here. As for the whole cop thing, I think I'd agree that a cop that makes a block should come forward and mention it. I agree it wouldn't be smart to have them come forward to say they didn't block anything though (unless they're closing in on being lynched and need to reveal of course).

vote narcizo

I agree, was dissapointed with all the music talk when I saw all the pages to read; however, it was easier for me to catch up when I didn't have any time today to read.

Originally Posted by The Jackal

So that's all we have to harp on, but we've been saying that all day, so unless we actually have him on the block right now, it's going to be pretty useless.

This is not really accurate as the scans can kinda clear people and I thought it was mentioned the BGs know who each other are, maybe that was wrong reading the rules, and the superhero wannabe knows batman.

This ruleset is far enough removed from a normal game that I'm not sure the usual MO applies here - I think a reasonable case could be made for no lynch here. We have two seers, in a sense, and two bodyguards - it might be in the best interest of the village to play for time.

The flip side of this is that it's going to be very hard for the wolves to form a defense, in the event that we do stumble upon someone early. By the same token, though, it's going to be hard to use vote records for a while, since the disturbed citizens can't come to each other's defense. We can still mine the data looking for Two-Face though...and I suppose we have no choice but to lynch people and try. It just feels like this game is a lot higher variance than normal.

In terms of the D1 vote, for meta reasons I'm disinclined to vote for Zinto - I feel like he's part of a subsection of WW players that tends to take a lot of D1 heat, in my experience. But I'm also loathe to vote for hoops just for the sake of not voting for Zinto, because I feel like he'll be extremely useful at putting forth ideas on how to deal with this funky ruleset. Even if he's a wolf he'll have to give us something, and it can at least be a starting point for speculation.

At the same time, dumping a vote on someone with two votes (as I started writing this the thread was through #392) is just going to make me look like a wolf. Blah.

Not sure why him taking D1 heat is a reason not to vote him.

I don't get a wolf vibe at all from hoops though. On the contrary Zinto probably gives me the biggest vibe with all the posts and what seemed conflicting opinions about the BG revealing.

Vote Zinto
