well the simple logic is even if he isnt bad.... he should want info on who might be wolves... and not just one solo lynch!

I think cronin was indicating a strategy the wolves might be using, trying to tell us that wolves may not necessarily be voting for each other right now, or trying to call each other out.

I guess clap thinks that kind of wolf thinking could only come from a wolf?

I wish I was a wolf, I don't think I've been a bad guy in any game I've ever been in, but sorry to disappoint you, I'm just a department worker. I got to be the fool and the psychic in those last two games I was in and look where that got me.

I don't know anything about cronin, I was just trying to explain to pas what you might be thinking, but I think I even misintrepreted your post. But uh, thanks for jumping on me so fast, that certainly adds you to the watch list.

That's kind of confusing. I may be missing something.. but for a unanimous vote on a wolf we'd kind of need to know for sure that someone was a wolf. We aren't anywhere close to a unanimous vote, nor should we be, especially with the Observer gone.

How the hell do we get a sure lynch on a wolf without any information, though?

That post was a response to people wavering on voting for the player in the lead, since it would make the vote not close - my point is, a close vote that gets a villager lynched is much worse than a runaway vote that gets a wolf lynched.

Its not rocket science.

Is there some kind of argument that's tempted you? I don't even think finkster has shown up since you said that's what would cause you to switch.

Hm. So you'd rather we stick on one person with the hope that they are the wolf instead of trying to see how voting patterns are working with multiple votes on multiple people?

It's all well and good to hope we get a wolf lynched, but it's certainly not a guarantee. The benefit of having a close vote is that you force multiple people to defend themselves, and that sometimes can lead to role reveals. When it's just one person with a ton of votes on them, there's not much likelihood they are going to get the vote changed. So maybe there's a better chance of getting a wolf with 4 votes on two people than eight votes on one, eh?

There's this idea that some players have that a vote should be "close." I'm not exactly against the idea, I just think sometimes its overrated.

okay I'm going to force some votes and see what kind of reaction we get, plus it's getting late, bathtime for the little one and all...and yes I know I'm making a tie too so don't give me any crap about it, but it forces the non-voters to vote to I hope and that should give us something to work with tomorrow.

vote Fink

I think he's just saying it's better to vote for who you think is a wolf, then to vote just to make it close. I think people are reading too much into this (and going apeshit in the process ).

UNVOTE SNDVLS

VOTE FINK


purely self preservation here. I have to force a tie. Lets see who moves next. Do they save me? Do they same Fink? Since I tied it, if they save Fink, methinks we find a wolf in the vote.

Thank you, for some reason that's the first time I understood it clearly. I think both camps have good points, but which strategy to use usually depends on how the game is going. Since we don't know much at all right now, and someone is going to get lynched either way, putting the pressure on multiple people is okay with me right now.

I get what you mean now, cronin.

I like the idea of a vote being close because it causes people to commit themselves for someone.. There are people who haven't voted yet, or might move their vote.. are they willing to put themselves on the line to save Render and condemn Fink, or save Fink and condemn Render, or go somewhere else and risk people claiming they were throwing away their vote to hide. It puts a bigger spotlight on people's reasons for what they do. If the vote is 8-3 or something, no one is going to risk anything really and you don't really gain anything.

I already have my suspicions on a few people from how Lathum escaped the lynch yesterday, I'll be interested to see how they play a part of today's vote which is possible because of how close it is. We can then start drawing lines to connect certain people based on those actions.
