I'm not falling for your little trap Dubb

so with that

VOTE DUBB93

Just got out of class early, it was supposed to run till 7. Anyway I pretty well aced the final and didn't break a leg walking there

Anyway, you are just pissed off b/c I outted you last game. I don't believe you are a wolf this game, but being the first to cast a second vote is exactly what a wolf wouldn't do. They would try to bury their vote, spread it out, they would not jump the gun on day 1. It makes no sense, you sir, need to go back and take werewolf 101.

Too much pontification in his part for a friday:

VOTE DUBB93

I don't appreciate your use of big words in a werewolf game, but that aside your logic is flawed. Did I make assumptions that can't be proven? Yes, but I narrowed it down using my logic. Kill me tonight and the villagers lose one of their best assets. I now see why bad players and newbies are trying to pile on me. I'll take your votes more serious when a good player throws his vote on me.

As is, it helps no one by spreading our vote out. It makes more sense to have a 2 or 3 person bandwagon on day 1, spread the votes evenly and dare someone to make a move. That flushes the wolves out. And if by chance one of the people that are in the group is a wolf, when he is later lynched it makes it so much easier to go back to this vote and see who didn't vote for him.

Now I'm off to get ready for a party.

[Vince]

Bonus points for dacman for using pontification in a sentence

I'll be reading along, as usual guys. Good luck!

[Raiders Army]

Not gonna let this be a tie.

UNVOTE KINGFC22

LOL. That's what happens when you write 10 employee reviews and then come check the board. I meant to follow saldana's vote. Oops.

UNVOTE SALDANA
VOTE ST.CRONIN

[st.cronin]

Well, I don't want to be lynched (as it appears I will be), but as a villager, if the villagers win, I win. So hopefully you all get some good info out of the vote.

Interesting "mistake"

[WVUFAN]

Vote Dubb93.

[Poli]

WVU, you can't edit that post. You have to make your vote without editing.

[WVUFAN]

Sorry. I'm brand new at this. :-(

I vote Dubb93. I thought we had to bold it, so I had edited it to add the bold.

Again, apologies. :-)

You seem intelligent. Perhaps a little too intelligent...

VOTE dacman

[WVUFAN]

One more try:


VOTE DUBB93

[RPI-Fan]

After a day that began suspiciously quiet, finger pointing began as the sun made the turn in the sky. By the end of the day, the group had centered around st.cronin. They carried him to the gallows, where he was hanged. The village waited, anticipating his change into a devilish werewolf. But it never occured, and it's revealed that st.cronin was merely a regular villager.

Schmidty (1): Barkeep
Barkeep (2): ardent, Schmidty
st.cronin (4): saldana, dubb, Raiders, kingfc22
Raiders Army (1): st.cronin
ardent (1): Grammaticus
dubb (3): McSweeny, dacman, WVUFAN
dacman (1): TazFTW

Non-voters: Blade, pennywisesb, SnDvls (Jeez, I change the deadlines for two of these people and can't even get a goddamn vote from them!)

It is now Night(1). Players with night actions please have them in by the deadline. The deadline for Night(1) is Monday, December 19th @ 10am.

[RPI-Fan]

Old, Incorrect:

Herbalist - You possess a bag of wolfsbane, the deadliest herb known to all wolfkind. Each night, you may choose to protect someone by slipping wolfsbane upon him. You may not choose someone two nights in a row. You may, however, choose yourself.

New, Correct:

Herbalist - You possess a bag of wolfsbane, the deadliest herb known to all wolfkind. Each night, you may choose to protect someone by slipping wolfsbane upon him. You may not choose the same person two nights in a row. You may, however, choose yourself.

Sorry!
~rpi-fan

[st.cronin]

come on guys, you can do better than that

[dubb93]

Back and not drunk...

Sucks that we didn't get a wolf tonight, but even more troubling is the lack of activity. Nothing to go by so far, at all other than the votes. And they really don't tell me anything at this point.

I guess we can start plowing through the guys that voted for Cronin, that would be as good a place as any to start.

[Raiders Army]

I think everyone is playing the quiet game so far. With a lengthy weekend, I expect it to continue to be as quiet. I think the holidays are also affecting the game.

[saldana]

ok, that sucked. sorry cronin...had to vote for someone, and i owed you from last game i hate day 1...time to go look for anything in the votes

[st.cronin]

no hard feelings - i'd rather be unjustly lynched on day 1 than any other day

I agree. It might not be ideal, but I think maybe we'll end up doing a Monday-Thursday next week, then a while off, maybe even the holidays (as I'm moving right around New Year's myself).

I don't know if it'll have lost so much momentum by that time to even bother, though...

Well I hope that doesn't happen.

[SnDvls]

sorry I was out guys. My wife got her masters from Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff, AZ on Friday so we were gone all day.

[Raiders Army]

Need to keep thread alive. I have some suspicions, but want to see what happens after the night phase.

[Poli]

Yeah, I'd like to see the night actions myself.

[RPI-Fan]

I don't have all the night actions yet... as soon as I get everything I need, I'll be happy to update.

[Poli]

Lazy wolves.

I'm going to have trouble containing my laughter if the wolves kill you.

[RPI-Fan]

You heard loud, shrieking screams piercing the cold winter air. When there was finally light enough to emerge from the safety of your campsites, you realize that kingfc22's eaten remains lay outside his tent.

Playerlist

1) st.cronin: Lynched, Day(1), Regular Villager
2) Raiders Army
3) dacman
4) pennywisesb
5) Schmidty
6) Blade6119
7) McSweeny
8) ardent enthusiast
9) SnDvls
10) Grammaticus
11) TazTFW
12) saldana
13) Barkeep49
14) kingfc22: Killed, Night(1)
15) WVUFAN
16) dubb93

It is now Day(2). Lynch votes are due by 10:30am EST on Tuesday, December 20th.

[Raiders Army]

Well, that was weird. I suspected kingfc22 was a wolf due to his swing vote for the lynch. I wonder why the wolves would go for him...

[SnDvls]

okay let's get this started.

Vote Ardent

he's laying a little too low for just a villager.

[dacman]

Maybe because no one voted for him -- lack of info strategy. That would make me suspect the wolves scattered their votes around.

[dacman]

Ardent is too quiet, but at least he voted! What about these folks:

Non-voters: Blade, pennywisesb, SnDvls

[Barkeep49]

I agree that on day 1 this is the best wolf strategy.

here I pulled my quote for you.

do I need to send you the graduation program too?

[SnDvls]

dola-
in the game of werewolf, not voting as a wolf only harms the team look at the outlaw game for that.

edit-correct spelling

Sending it seems like overkill. A scan of the program will suffice. Please make sure to highlight your wife's name.

All joking aside nonparticipation from villagers, especially nonvotes, hurts the villagers in the long run. Voting and participation are the way we build track records which allows for later deduction. While I'm inclined to believe that you’re innocent and that Blade (bless his day 2 living soul) are innocent, it really is a negative from my perspective.

agreed- and you can see from my track record in these games I'm an active player. I missed one vote. A lot less than many other "vet" players over all in all the games there are. Remember I had to replace 2 players for lack of participation in the game I ran (one was banned from the board for a time too). So I know it hurts the team. I'll I can say is let's get some wolves now.

This is the most important thing you said, we are down 2 right now, so lets get this action going, and Barkeep, in defense of sndvls and blade, they both stated before the weekend that they were going to be out of touch for 3 days because of their preplanned commitment.

actually I did not say I'd be out of touch. I thought with a Thurday start I'd at least get in a day 1 vote, but it turns out that Night 0 was due by Friday @ 10 AM. We left my house in south Chandler, Az @ 8 AM to take the 1 year old to get her one year shots. Then we left to head to Flagstaff, had to be there by 2 PM so hence I missed the day one deadline.....anyhow thanks for trying to defend me, but I can not accept it. I erred in thinking I'd make a day 1 vote in time and didn't bottom line.

Again we've started to get some talk going, let's get some wolves quickly.

[saldana]

I know this is to be expected from me at some point, but I think we need to really look at all the talking dubb did yesterday, and specifically, what he was saying. he had several posts talking about what a wolf would do, and what a wolf wouldnt do. That can be interpreted in two ways....

1. he was trying to educate the newer players in the game

2. he was trying to hide himself by seeming to educate the newer players in the game, when in fact, he is a wolf himself.

seems to me that it would be a great strategy for a wolf to come out to all the new guys in this game as a mentor type, insuring that they would never think that he was a wolf and never vote to lynch him, and if a vote did swing towards him, he could just say "look at all the help i was giving you all game".

this theory also explains why king got whacked last night, as he is usually very good at picking up on people and very active in posting.

this is just a theory, but it makes more sense than anything else i can make of yesterday.

VOTE DUBB
