I have sent in a destination.

I don't think one spot automatically leads to wolfhood. I think that might end up becoming obvious in some way, and then all the wolves are hung as soon as one is. I don't think Alan would do that.

I thnik st.cronin is right that this will be more complicated. Alan tends toward the more complicated. My guess is the wolves will come from multiple places, with the one chosen from a given spot being determined by some factor like order of destination choice or game sign up order.

In any case, as long as there is a possibility that role can be determined from your first destination, I think it best we keep that a secret for now.

I've been on one actual cruise in my life and enjoyed it about a thousand times more than I expected to. Hopefully this one won't disappoint either. I could use the R&R.

I sent in my destinations and agree with cronin that the destinations mean something, but I don't think I buy any of his analysis except about the canoe.

I don't actually buy that analysis either, ftr. Those were just wild guesses.

It is our N0 decision, I would figure, that will determine which of us is underground. There is no randomness in this game, including the handing out of roles.

My hunch is that Alan has a set number of wolves in mind for the game, and that all the wolves will consist of people who have gone to the same place -- and that place is whichever one the right amount of people go to (so if four people go shopping, and he wanted four wolves, everyone who went shopping is a wolf).

I hope this is a booze cruise.

I'm checking in.

Am I correct in assuming that all we need to do before tomorrow at 3 PM is send in my destination?

Interesting theory. The randomness of the point of wolf origin is a new aspect I didn't consider. I still don't think Alan would make so obvious a connection amongst wolves.

Im sorry sir. I guess I still assume everyone gets the tone of my posts. I was joking about being a villager for the moment, because it is a very wolfy think to say yet we are all villagers. Then I was just messing with you by saying something suspicious. Sorry.

No need to apologize. I was pretty sure you meant it that way. But I didn't want anyone else reading (particularly newer players) taking it literally and thinking we already have wolves amongst us when I am pretty sure we don't.

This is the easiest game of WW ever. Obviously the wolves' fur will stink due to the salt air so all we have to do is vote for whoever stinks the most.

Now, if we could only smell over the internet...

Nibblin' on sponge cake,
watchin' the sun bake;
All of those tourists covered with oil.
Strummin' my six string on my front porch swing.
Smell those shrimp
They're beginnin' to boil.

Wasted away again in Margaritaville,
Searchin' for my lost shaker of salt.
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame,
But I know it's all these damn wolves.

That's the wrong time to suggest it. After the results you might be bad. By talking now we at least all know that we're on the good side.

Well, I see your point, but anything I might suggest now would be nothing more than an unsubstantiated wild-ass guess.

So then, no, I don't have any theories

I don't think all the roles are necessarily going to be handed out after day 0, either, for what it's worth.

I agree which is why we can't win until Day 4. I think at that time we can assume that all roles which are to be had are in the game.

The cruise ship comes to dock at Cozumel and you all make way to exit the ship. Many of you have chosen various adventures to spend your day, and it appears that it will be beautiful out! Wasting no time, you set forth for your day excursions to see what adventures may wait!

PMs will be sent out shortly!

All PMs have been sent. Everyone should have received one. If you did not receive a PM, please drop me a PM so I can make sure that you get yours.

Deadline for responding to any events is 10pm EST tonight. At that point will start Day 1, which will have a vote and have a deadline of 3pm EST tommorrow.

ok, so I think we can toss out the theory that everyone who visited a ceretian location is a wolf since I was told who else was with me.

Anyone see a downside to revealing where we went?

I went shopping and did not learn of anyone else during the process.

I now have a series of three other actions I can take for this evening, one of which pretty clearly suggests a role to me.

I'm amused that I was able to not post for a single day (72+ hour day!!!) and not be called out for it Now that I've finished up that little social experiment, time to focus on a game of werewolf.

Jackal + Lathum - do you see value in publishing who else you saw at your location?

I have no problem telling who was with me buut I will wait a bit to see if anyone has concerns.

I would assume if you didn't meet up with anyone else it is because you were the only one who choose that activity

I went to the Chankanaab National Marine Park. I was not alone and it was popular. We swam with the dolphins, so that was nice. I also don't know who went with me.
