Werewolf LXXVI - The Werewolf Draft! Game over, see last pages for details

Hypothetically speaking, what would your response be if the other ended up being lynched and wasn't a wolf.. Since you've pushed for this theory (in BK's case 2 days) and now you suddenly see either BK or Lathum now lynched and turn up good along with me being good.. What defense do you use when alot of people suddenly want to use your own strategy against you and come after you as the only member of the 3 left not verified as good?

I actualy don't believe that theory at all, I was more using BK's logic against himself.

[DaddyTorgo]

I'm not ignoring your opinion from earlier Alan - but in my present condition, a vote for Lathum is the best vote that I can make.

I still believe that Kwhit's line of thinking bears exploring - if i can convince others of that and we can explore it via voting lathum off that's great - if not...a vote for lathum is still the best vote that i can make.

My guess, since we didn't have a lynch on day 1 people feel a bit lost, I know I do. I don't really feel there is anything to go on with anyone. I don't want to spread the votes out, but these folks seem very much UTR to me, granted this is only my second game so I don't know the usual play style for these folks, or their work schedules etc.

Folks UTR:
Render
Clap (trying to be UTR)
SnDvls
Saldana
EagleFan
GoldenEagle

It wouldn't be the best strategy to just take them out going down the list, but it would be nice to know their roles in the game.

I have about an hour before I have to leave for work, I'll have a vote in before then.

[claphamsa]

I am trying to be UTR you are right cuz im sick of getting lynched early, so im TRYING to only say stuff when I have somethign to say

Who would you list as the next 'big 3' vets that hoops would most likely select for at least 1 (if not 2) of the wolves?

In a list of 6, I'd think there almost has to be at least 1 wolf.

I'm really not a fan of this sort of thing becaue IMO it comes off a little elitist, but to answer your question.

Saldana
CR
SNDVLS

with Olie, Render and GE not far behind

If BK is pinging you, then why would you vote for EagleFan? Wouldn't you just go ahead and vote for Barkeep. This is a very strange vote and your actions are a bit weird.

leaving me off the list?? that hurts my feelings!!

[SnDvls]

both DT's and Lathum's lists are probally very fair lists of people.

good point!

[Lathum]

I don't believe for one second that DT is the BG but UNLIKE BK voting for me I am not going to risk losing a valuable role by pushing the issue.

My vote on BK is based on the fact that despite the possibility I am the real seer he is pushing to vote me and thats not like him.

[DaddyTorgo]

aaaah - but the crafty hooper may be like 14th level analysis and have picked all newbs along with someone like clap who's newbish to us, to guide them...he's a sick sick man

Me????? I'm shocked...and flattered! I don't consider myself a horrible player, but I don't consider myself a good player either, hopefully this means that when you see me signed up for a game you don't say "Oh damn, Olie is playing again...she sucks"

if there was a most improved player you would get my vote and it's not even close.

BTW, wheres sea lion? did he not enjoy WW?

[Mrs. Schmidty]

As I said before with no lynch yesterday I don't think we have too much to go on as far as wolves, though we did find out at least 2 of our roled villagers, but then again, the wolves also found them out too

I don't want to have another tied vote, so my vote is

VOTE BARKEEP

[claphamsa]

not at all, we learn much less from a runaway.

I have about an hour before I have to leave for work, I'll have a vote in before then.

this list amuses me, at least the fact that I am on it anyway, considering I have more posts in the thread than your husband

you should have been around when i used to have single digit post numbers on day 3

[GoldenEagle]

Here are my people of interest at this time:

Passacaglia
mccollins
Chief Rum
SnDvls
Telle

Why were you more willing to vote for the potential seer yesterday than today?

[Lathum]

OK, so who do you all think I should scan today since my scanning of Telle wasn't well received

[Mrs. Schmidty]

No, it's not that, but to push Lathum I again am responsible for causing a tie, or at least getting it close. I really don't want another no lynch. It's lame I know, but I believed Lathum day 1, or at least wanted to give him a couple days to find out if he's the real seer or not.

[Telle]

Yes. Lathum isn't high on my trust list.. but there is the possibility that he is the real seer. So for the moment I'm reluctantly putting him on the back burner.

Also, how do we check post counts? I was just going by who seemed UTR to me.

Awww, thanks Lathum! But if you turn out to be a wolf, I'm going to figure you are lying about this too! I've really really enjoyed playing and hope that I get to have "real" roles in more games - I've been the seer a few times, and the BG once or twice, but I've never been the Duke and only been a wolf once.

He liked it, he felt overwhelmed, it turned out to be a pretty involved game so I think he was in over his head. At first he said he wouldn't play again, but now he's wanting me to talk about the games and is saying he'll try it again sometime when there is a more simple game. He was going to play in the basic game that was just held, but had a lot going on with school and work so it was a bad time.

[DaddyTorgo]

off to my meeting in a little. my night orders are in. i won't be back probably till i get home from work (meeting till 4 plus potentially drinks after)

I kinda did this myself in my head...if I were picking for the wolves whom would I pick.

I'd lean towards 1 vet type player to lead them, 1-2 advanced/yet not as well known players and 1-2 totally new/UTR players.

My thinking is that in most games the other vets quickly distrust eachother and those with roles will go after them 1st which is usually par for the course. (ie a seer scans someone like Barkeep on night 1 or a spy looks at Alan).

But then with AE drafting the villagers it can really get murky too.

Since you are so distrusting of DT in a potentially harmful way, I don't understand why you wouldn't use your supposed ability to try to remove doubt for yourself among people that you are eager to push for...

Likewise I can understand why you wouldn't have scanned DT yesterday (assuming he would be dead), but if that is the case, I'm not quite sure why you wouldn't have scanned BK to try to clear that up in your head instead.

I don't know if I'm going to be interested in joining you on a vote for anyone that you've pushed for multiple days, but chose not to try to clear up their allegiance in your own head at least.

[Lathum]

you are WAY to smart a player to not realize at some point if he is lying it will come out one way or the other so there is no reason for the BG to reveal.

Honestly you would be getting my vote today if I wasn't in danger.

[DaddyTorgo]

dola

and when i say orders i mean "my order + a conditional in case that person gets lynched"

Go back to the WW forum, and click the total post count on the right of this thread.

My post was actually directed to Telle. I found it odd that she voted BK over Lathum, when she voted Lathum yesterday.

Thanks!

[saldana]

i am not sold on any of the candidates...my first choice would have been Chief Rum, but since he is not going to win the race, i am gonna make the safe play

vote alan t

[Telle]

I think Alan's move yesterday gave us the chance to take a step back and breathe for a moment. At that point part of me went "Wow, maybe we DID have two roled players on the block." So, I'm willing to put my doubts about Lathum's reveal to the side for now and look at other candidates.

[Passacaglia]

What's my agenda? Don't YOU find it odd that Telle voted for you yesterday, but now prefers to vote BK?

[mccollins]

I fully agree. I've learned over the past few games that it's better to keep it close even if it means not listening to your gut for the moment.

Didn't that possibility exist yesterday?

i agree with this....(i am sure everyone is suprised)...i dont remember Pass being so aggressive or so defensive, but i figured he may have changed tack a bit since the last time I played with him

Is it not pretty much a known fact he is the duke (making him a villager)? Why would you vote for a villager?

I wouldn't say that -- it's not like I'm in the Top 6 (or 7) or anything!

[SnDvls]

to keep a wolf kill out of the equation for him is my guess

However, your vote for Lathum yesterday was placed before DT made his reveal. So whether or not TWO roled villagers were involved should not have been part of your thinking. I'll have to go back and verify this.
