True, you didn't go overboard like Blade, but Blade is always overboard so it's kind of expected. But you let Fozzie get under your skin which led to posts like (crap, I can't figure out how to do multiple quotes, so I'll just paraphrase): Post 176: "I refuse to work with you guys this game" Post 196: "I didn't mind playing until...(complaints about Fozzie & Desnudo) Post 215: "I hope I'm not on the same team as you because if you're a samurai we won't win." But hey, everyone gets frustrated at times. And I did mention that I believed you were likely good at this point, and that I wasn't voting for you.

I hear what you're saying, but as far as working out a logical pattern -- it's day 1. There is no pattern yet. Voting based on ruffled feathers is as valid as a random number generator far as I can tell.

I honestly doubt the wolves touch dubb or I...why would they at this point(esp. me). No one trusts me or wants me alive, and ill will prob. be lynched in the next day or so...what purpose does it do the wolves to kill me now, unless fozzie is a wolf.
And fozzie, i know hoops asked you to play, and i apologize if ive forced you to not want to play WW again, as i loved some of your games. Ive been playing mind games all weekend, and having fun playing with you. I would hope, as someone who made quite a bit of fun of me, you could take it as well as give it

Ill reiterate, i purposely tried to rile people up to see what reactions i could get. I have never gone broad with my attacks before, but i decided its day one and i wanted to draw out some discussion...and boy did i. You may not like it, but were on page 11 before anyone has died or a event taken place...thats discussion, and discussion of any nature is good.

Your attacks were certainly broad. I think you've offended a lot of people and will likely be hung quite early in this game. I don't know if I would consider that a good tactic. |

Dola (or maybe not) -
The exception is when a seer speaks up early. Then day 2 is not such a crapshoot, otherwise, there is usually scant "real" evidence to go upon. |

I did say internet man crush at first, which is different than out and out love. Dubby is a pet name, while muppet is derogatory. And yes, I think it's the only post in the entire thread that didn't reply argumentatively to someone. |

Actually, I think there is very little real evidence or information from most of this. You ruffled feathers, some people voted against you because of that. Other people will vote against you tomorrow because of your feather ruffling if you survive today. It gives an inherent excuse and makes the data biased and unclear. I actually think this tactic muddled the game. |

That's a pretty broad statement. And granted, I may not be teh WW super-genius, but I don't think there was a whole lot in the first 10 pages that will prove all that worthwhile. YMMV.

You can somewhat factor it in. For exampe, by reading back it's pretty easy to see who is/was most annoyed by Blade's tactics. At least the evidence is in plain sight so you can account for it. |

As we come down to the last few hours, I thought an updated tally might be useful:
SirFozzie - AlanT (137), Blade (149), Dubb (167), Tanglewood (324), Saldana (405), PackerFanatic (460), Kingfc22 (481) Dubb - Schmidty (146), Eaglesfan (180) Mustang - Coder (168) Blade - KWhit (383), Lathum (387), SirFozzie (473), TazFTW (506) Qwikshot - RPI (400) Kingfc22 - Desnudo (466), Path12 (496) Looks like SirFozzie is in the "lead" with 7 and will face the awesome might of Chuck Norris unless there is some late movement. |

Also, actions speak louder than words. I'm perfectly willing to let it go, and I appreciate the sentiment, but I wouldn't expect to be granted a full pardon just because you post an apology. It takes a little time to rebuild trust and make people want to work with you. |

So much bullshit this game. So little substance. It's really sad, and really makes me miss the good old days of WW.

In no way is my vote on Sirfozzie meant to be an indication of me choosing sides with you and/or Dubb for the record I have a no idea if you two are ninjas or not, I just don't see this much of a storm being caused on day one if you two were ninjas, which is why I said I'm guessing you are samurai. I votd for fozzie only because I didn't like his strategy and he was the first person to try to start a run on someone voting. Those two reasons were the main ones to pick him on a day 1. I just wanted to make it clear that I don't have any desire to be grouped with anyone right now. I don't trust any of you! |

I think the problem is day one has lasted way to long and everyone is getting restless. In future games I think we need to have a shorter day one so this BS doesn't take over.
That being said it seems blade is playing a risk vs reward game where he hopes to survive the first few days and then coast using the defense of he can't be a ninja because there is no way a ninja would be that vocal the first few days. I'm not buying it. |

Blade: I'm actually quite sure that you're not a ninja, because if you were, the other ninjas would have outted you by now, just hoping to get you to STFU.
Thank god my role in this farce ends in a couple hours, unless a couple people change their minds (which I don't think will happen, but the 10,000 fortunes have smiled on lesser people) BTW.. supreme irony, here ladies and gentlemen. He doesn't think I'm playing a samurai game.. when he refuses to stop saying villager/wolf/etcetera.
