since there are 10 peple in the game it would be safeto assume that there will be either 2 or 3 wolves. The seer needs to start scanning people to find the wolves. I woudl suggest starting with the more skilled and senior people (the ones we should be scared of) Im gonna say Lathum makes a good first ngiht scan.

Alos you shoudl not reveal your rolls unless there is real good reason too (ie to save yourself from being lynched)

Also Im usualy the first one lycnhed please do nto kill me until at least day 3.

KTHXBAI

The game rules state that there are two wolves and one sorcerer. Does the sorcerer count as villager when accounting for the villager to wolves ratio?

[claphamsa]

so much for reading the rules

Im pretty sure he counts a villegar? maybe BK can weigh in on this...

Just my thoughts here, take them for what they're worth.

The top 5, to the best of my knowledge are new players, so welcome!

The bottom 5 are the "vets" of this game. I'm thinking that the seer should probably be working on scanning them as I would assume there is at least one veteran wolf. The bodyguard may want to work on protecting the veterans as well early because I would try to take out the best veteran villager (and no, this isn't KWhit outlining how he would pull this off).

Just reminder to the new players. Unless it is necessary to avoid being lynched or you think it truly benefits us in some great way, do not reveal your role. The wolves will immediately target you if you do.

new players: lathum is almost always a wolf (he has really good/bad luck with the die). therefore the old saying goes "when in doubt vote lathum". Now this generally isn't followed all the time, but as a random D1 vote it's somewhat amusing, and I really don't have a better thought on who to vote for right now.

disclaimer: this vote subject to change

I had to look this up, but Lathum has played in all three games I have played (Tombstone, Clash of the Titans, and BCS) and has never been on the same side as me. Lathum was a cowboy, villager, and Catholic in those three games. I was a villager, wolf, and villager in those three games. Kind of interesting for me at least.

so are you saying you are a wolf, or lathum is a wolf? or are you two the wolves and you're trying to throw up a smokescreen to deflect suspiscion?

I'm not trying to say anything. Just saying a random stat that I looked up after your initial comment that I found interesting. Really, it has no bearing on this game.

[DaddyTorgo]

lol okay

[DaddyTorgo]

i'm in a boss-free zone the next couple weeks, so i ought to be able to lurk in-thread most the day

[Lathum]

I am not a wolf but if you want to lynch me thats fine.

I am a vanilla villager so while lynching me wont get us a wolf at least we wont kill a valuable role or force someone to reveal early

[The Jackal]

I'll throw out an early vote, subject to change.

Vote PurdueBrad

[Axxon]

Morning folks. We need to pick a target to lynch. I agree we need to worry about the more experienced folks but I'm not the guy who's gonna start piling on just yet.

VOTE claphamsa

vote subject to change of course. Sorry clap.

Hmm, Lathum was a cowboy, villager, and Catholic. Kinda actually sounds like lathum was one one of the village people, is that a hidden clue??

Tell us Racer. What do you know.

I am confused. I really have no idea was Lathum is this time. I would guess he is a villager, but only because there are many more villagers then wolves.

It was a joke. A cowboy, a villager and a catholic reminded me of roles in the old disco group, the village people. Since the word village is in village people and you'd said you were always on opposite sides as him I was teasing you about whether you were subtly revealing something.

Hey, it's day one. We don't have a lot to talk about yet.

VOTE claphamsa

This vote is fine for now. However, I think by tonight we need to place all of our votes on two or three people otherwise the wolves will have an easier time manipulating the vote.

Anyways, here is my vote:

Vote The Jackal

I believe he's the only veteran I haven't played against so I have no idea how he plays and he is experienced. That's probably as good as any other reason to vote for someone on day one. Like others, I'm willing to change my vote.

[Axxon]

That makes Jackal the first one to two votes.

[Axxon]

Correction. It ties him with purduebrad.

[claphamsa]

eveyone is spelling his name wrong!!!

its jackyl!!!!

[Racer]

I believe this is the current vote totals

2 - Purdue Brad (Claph (46), Jackal (60))
2- Jackal (Purdue Brad (50), Racer (65))
1 - Lathum (Daddy Torgo (47))

[claphamsa]

axon voted for me in 61

Ahh, I see. I've heard the reference village people before but really knew what it was from. A little bit before my time I guess.

[Lathum]

Really???

[The Jackal]

Forgot to post in green, sorry BK. And guys, voting for me is a poor decision.

I guess I have to start thinking about self preservation.

unvote PB

vote lonestar girl

[claphamsa]

yeah, we both pretty crappy wolves, neither of us can shut up long enough to not get lycnhed. it seems that the most talkative ones die early

[claphamsa]

Actually he hasnt said anything......

[The Jackal]

If you really want to force me to reveal, I will, but I think that's silly. I'd rather get night killed than lynched and cost the village a day of voting, though.

[claphamsa]

I dont think anyone wants u to reveal, unless your a wolf!

[Lathum]

If LSG hasn't checked in soon I will likely switch to her

[DaddyTorgo]

+1

and she's a woman, another minus in my book right now

[Racer]

I'm going running so I'll be gone for a couple of hours. If LSG hasn't checked in by the time I get back, I'll probably switch my vote to her.

[claphamsa]

FYI I play softabll monday nights. so ill be leaving in about an hour... I shoudl be back before deadline but not alot!

[The Jackal]

im out to class for a few hours, back around 8:30 or so

[LoneStarGirl]

I teach summer school from 7-3! I wont check in at all until 4! Be nice to me and dont pick on me cuz I am a woman. Anyway, before I saw everybody vote for me I decided I wanted to vote for Claphamsa because he said he as a villager before Barkeep even put out his first message starting the game. And that is just too eager.

Vote claphamsa

[path12]

Hey, LSG is back! Yay!

[LoneStarGirl]

[Alan T]

3 - Claph (Axxon 61, LoneStarGirl 92, Danny 98 )

[DaddyTorgo]

finally home - ugh what a day. Nice 2 mile walk in the late-night muggy heat - still sweating it off after my cold shower.

What's the latest?
