I should probably find my defense post from earlier and just paste that here. It all still stands. I am and always have been village. I've attracted alot of bad attention and I think having focus on me is detracting from wolf hunting.

And I do realize that I only have 1 vote for me right now , but enough people have mentioned that they'd be willing to lynch me that a switch of leaders wouldn't be that hard to make happen.

I was actually quite surprised that I wasn't the leader from the start of the day after my screw up at the last Lynch.
 
I don't really feel too suspicious of rocky either. I actually don't have strong feelings for any of the leaders, I'm running out of time to make a decision. I still want Jil to pay for the Pokémon game, but she doesn't feel like she did to me when she was a wolf then.

So these last two posts by you really sum up the general feels I've had on you. Only 6/21 got yesterday's lynch right that's not a landslide. You seem awfully concerned about being right. To me you don't seem to be making decisive lynches. It seems like you are hanging back waiting to chime in on other people's reasoning.

I really was leaning more towards BBC this morning because she seems to be doing way too much "don't look at me, direct your attention elsewhere" type posts, but these last post by you have me on the fence again.
 
I think we've only wolfed once together in STLs game. I don't think I've been a wolf ever besides then.

I really did make a mistake with my reasoning for my voting yesterday. Tiredness/brain fart or whatever happened, but it luckily didn't change the results of the Lynch (netting a wolf).

I do realize that I've dug myself a hole in this game by making some dumb posts. The more I speak, the more likely I am to say something that'll get me in trouble. All the extra focus on what everyone is saying and trying to find holes in peoples stories is really exploiting what dumb things I've said.
Hmm I must have been thinking of someone else with the modding comment.

It is just very odd. I accept that it could be an honest mistake, which is why I'm not voting for you right now.
 
Also, are we now on a 48 hour cycle? Or is that just for after this day?

Don't know if I need to stay up and keep reading and thinking, or if I can afford to sleep
This lynch, I believe, ends in an hour or two. Then 12 hour night. Then 48 hour cycle. I think.
 
Well I thought the my vote for deva was reasoned, and had some thought behind it. But I want to be right with my votes and feelings. That means that I'm paying attention enough and able to sort out what's what in the game. Isn't that what everyone hopes for?
 
@thedrjojo is always an etchasketch. LIS is always a villager. Sobsob is a mantis shrimp. STL IS BANANAS. MJ is a heartbreaker. And Teep is my favorite. We don't even mention hewhoshantbenamed cause he will ride in on a chocotaco and no one wants that.
Didn't make the list 😢

If you're gonna criticize the leading lynches, you should come up with a good alternative 😛

That said I'm not sure if rocky's nonchalance is wolf ploy, or actual village apathy. I know she's busy, I just prefer more effort. Seems it is more often villagers than wolves that shrug and disappear, but I don't have actual data on that.

I'd say it was the closest you've come with your lynches, but she's been dead for hours now. This feels like stalling to me since I believe lynch closes in 30 min.

I am trying my best to try to find the best candidate to lynch. But I'm running out of time and battery to do so at this moment.
 
Lynch BBC

I need to sleep and I think kaydubs is trying to send me a hidden message
 
I don't think there are enough people on right now for my vote to make a difference either way at this point. I really should lynch Teep for that reasoning, but I think BBC is closer and has been trying to draw attention off herself for awhile now.

lynch BBC
 
Huh. How come Rojo, who made such a big deal at some point early in the game about his longstanding rivalry with STL, didn't vote for STL on the Day 1 tally?

Or am I misremembering what Rojo said?

...................
That's how I remember it too. A few of you "old timers" have mentioned your rivalries and normal voting patterns and then not followed though. The whole STL rivalry stood out more because of what happened next.
 
I can't make up my mind on any of this. Every time I get close to posting my vote I read something that leans me in another direction. I could go either way in the rocky/ BBC thing. I don't think I voted yet, but unsure since I have typed so many votes and erased as many so:

Unlynch whoever
Lynch Rocky
 
Mod abandonment?

Or we have a 48hr lynch cycle. I have to admit, I assumed the current lynch would last that long. That's why I felt Ok abandoning the thread when other stuff came up.

Hope I made the 10-post limit, but I'm not sure

Dy said last night this lynch would end at 10am, and then later said the weekend cycle would be 48 hours.

You can always go back through the posts on this thread and count yours for this day cycle to see if you're at least close.

I'd estimate at least 9 for you, I did count your statistics posts
 
I don't think I made it to post limit this time. Wed, Thurs and Friday are my busy days. As soon as this day starts, I'm pretty useless for the next 7 hours.
 
As far as the lynch on AB3 went, I just got lucky. I was torn on that vote but decided that AB3 was slightly sketchier and wasn't contributing as much to finding a wolf. I had no magic power.

50 hour day and this is what we have left. Assuming 3 wolves, based on kills, I would guess at least one considers themselves a veteran.

I agree with the veteran part. Just based on numbers left....and wolves have done welll....and left a lot of vets still standing.
 
I'd be interested to know which of the more vocal players give you feels then.
Didn't i just say no one should listen to me? :rage:
Jilary right now i think, but i have to read over her posts and adjust things based on how yesterday turned out.
I am going with

Lynxh LIS

On the theory That where there is smoke...there is fire....many of us have had feels on him....probably for a reason.
I would be ok with that, for the reason you stated. Haven't had many feels on him personally but if he keeps popping up on multiple radars...
Lis and jojo and you come tomind for me.
And you come to mind for me so i guess we're even 😛

Kidding. Like i said, need to reevaluate. I think i had reasons to have you low on my list but i can't remember right now.

As for me, do you have reasons, or just the feels?

I think rojo is unlikely.
 
2/3 of the people haven't posted yet? I guess holiday weekends means we can throw the 10 posts out the window, and analysis of play styles is going to mean little.

Hard to make meaningful comments without some help.
 
********** wow you guys are doing terribly lol *************

I find it interesting that Jilary managed to avoid voting for both STL and AB. She responded when WTF dropped that bomb, but never put a vote in. And in the AB vs. 1dog lynch, she voted for LIS. She had a half-hearted defense of AB, which I can't really fault her for because I felt the same. But then she says things like these that make me wonder:

I know others have said in past games that it used to be fairly common for wolves to be able to kill and convert on the same night. I'm still voting for no converts in this game, but that is only because that is what fits in my idea of a basics game.

Just FYI - I would not defend multiple wolves if I were a wolf, not even soft defenses. It's just a really bad idea. I'd probably just avoid that aspect of the discussion.

And then I was trying to figure out how the wolves got so many villagers with roles killed so quickly. So my guess is that STL lied about knowing who the protector is, since FB wasn't killed until N4. STL seered someone N1, and my guess is that was vetmedhead, which is why she was killed N3 after WTF but before FB. So how did the wolves figure out that FB was the protector? FB posted about the strongman role, and liked a couple of Jilary's posts on the subject. I suppose any wolf could observe that and make an educated guess, since the wolves would know about that role too. But it would really throw up a flag if Jilary was a wolf, and saw those posts of hers being liked by FB.

So those are my thoughts on Jilary. Anyone else think the same way?

Not voting to lynch multiple wolves is more villager than wolf. Good wolves would vote for their fellow wolves to throw off suspicion.
 
Also wondering about SOV. STL, Sandy, and RM(SOV) posted before Dy's disclaimer about vanillagers. The wolves killed off Sandy N1. They went after Guis last night, instead of SOV. Makes me wonder why.

Oh, ok. Good thing the wolves know and follow these rules.

it;s not a rule. Don't be ridiculous.

If you are a wolf you try to act as villager like as possible and blend in. Why would you possibly want to avoid voting for wolves being lynched? It would just draw attention to yourself.

Hell when I am a wolf I lead the charge against fellow wolves. "throwing your fellow wolves under the bus" is a time-honored tradition.

your response is both unappreciated and idiotic. But maybe you are just following the rules.

Not really because I don't really agree with your chain of events. I think it's pretty likely that STL did idiot savant FB. The wolves seemed pretty confident that they could render the protector useless and that looks like what happened. WTF outed herself and wasn't protected. VMH was probably too obvious on the thread. I had talked earlier about the post of hers that seemed to indicate villager role to me. She also had a post that got a bit specific on tracker restrictions that some other people had picked up on. She also was not protected. FB died last because she was essentially rendered useless (just based on how things played out I would say it feels more like a wolf blocker than the strongman role).
 
Teep's stalling yesterday really gave me the feels. I could really see his Deva post as being some pre-planned thing by the wolves to try and get a lynch on a villager going.

lynch Teep
