BATTLE OF THE BANDS WW Game Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
There is villager on villager killing going on at night. I am guessing each villager has an assassination song. I don't know if there are wolves or not. I thought there was yesterday, I still think there might be. But something else is clearly going on during the night cycles other than just a wolf attack. Having that many deaths in one night is not due to just wolves running crazy and being able to kill at will. Think about it.

Yeah, clearly villager on villager action. Definitely agree.

I just don't buy the 'no wolves' theory that some people are throwing around, yanno? It's ... too much of a departure, and frankly, there's mind-f'ing the villagers and then there's just being an ass. And having no wolves is in the latter category. It seems a little bit like looking for zebras .... so until proven otherwise, I'm going to assume there are wolves.

These deadlines are probably great for some people, but they are about the worst possible for me (which is fine - just don't expect me to contribute). I don't get down time on this rotation, and lynch closes after I'm on clinic and night closes before I leave. So..... I can put pointlessly random night moves in, I guess, and just play my autoplay song. I at least have a clue what it does now, and it's benign/harmless. So I won't hurt anyone. (Turns out I wasn't one of the people that blocked SOV N1.)
 
I think @kaydubs wants to switch the nights and days around eventually. Maybe it would be good to leave this lynch open super long? Until tomorrow evening, then get us back on to a normal schedule?

Sure, that works. I really don't mind if I get screwed by it ... I think they should just pick the schedule that works best for most people. I just feel bad when I can't even get a chance to get a move in. But it is what it is, and I don't expect to be accommodated.

Yeah, I still think there are wolves as well.

I am hoping the deadlines change some as the schedule normalizes. The lynch ending in early morning over in the US is not great as everyone will discuss/lynch tonight while I sleep and then nothing will happen when I am awake. But hopefully it is just the one time and becomes a more normal schedule tomorrow.

Yes, mods need to do what works for them the best.
 
I think one option would be to reveal which band we all are, and off one of the most obscure ones.

Eh. Might be. But my current leading theory - which has absolutely zero evidence behind it - is that all the players have 'reasonable' role names/bands, and that the identities aren't going to be particularly helpful to us.

But who knows. Maybe we really do have bands like Tesla in the game who obviously should be lynched.
 
I don't think there is a whole lot to lose at this point by revealing band names so I'm alright with it

Since I was on the waitlist for the game, I'm not a band. I am fan #1.
Going along with that, I was the last one to join the game and I am fan #6. Also, just as a little theory, what if they didn't tell players whether they were villagers or wolves? I am not a band, and I am pretty sure my description does not explicitly say one way or the other, but can anyone who is a band verify whether or not they were explicitly told they were a villager?
 
Like ksmi and I'm assuming all other "Mosh Pit" members, I'm just a fan.

STL, I'm a fan and was explicitly told I'm a villager. Has no one else been told whether they're wolf/villager?

I was not explicitly told. Although, if I'm remembering correctly, it wasn't explicitly stated in the Noobies vs Boobies or SoT game. I suppose it's kind of implied that unless you're told otherwise, you're a villager.

I also was not told in the Noobies vs Boobie game. In fact, I had to ask how I knew if I'm a wolf or a villager -- :laugh:
In this game though, I was told I am a villager.. Does it depend on who the mod(s) is/are?

Yeah except evil mods like to do evil things.... It would be the most frustrating thing for wolves and villagers alike, and would fit the theme perfectly. I will see if I get clarification on villager or if Kaydubs won't give it to me.

Not saying you're wrong. Just saying that in the last three games (I checked and it wasn't stated in Neopets either) I've started as a villager, I wasn't told I was one. So it becomes an assumption because 1) You're usually told if you're a wolf 2) You're usually in communication with other wolves

I know both of those have probably been broken in other games, idgaf

But in that one game, there was that time that..... 😛 😉

I would advise asking Kaydubs 😛. And think of all the terrible things we are doing in the game we are planning, is that so bad in comparison? 😛
 
Im KISS. I sent you a song last night @hedgiehog which is why you got the Gene Simmons quote. I sent you my repeat song tonight, care to share what it does? I didn't get a pm back tonight with any details. Last night I just got a pm back that my song didn't do anything...
 
I'm Maroon 5 and I was told I'm a villager. But this is how she said it. (Hope it's ok to copy some of the PM, I didn't see it in the rules).

"You are Maroon 5. Your autoplay song is "Can't Stop." Wait, shouldn't you be a wolf? No way the (former) creator would lump Maroon 5 into the villager group, would he? Yup, you're a villager! Good luck convincing your fellows of that. "

I'm not really sure why I would need luck convincing that I'm a villager. So I thought that was odd. But it makes me believe there are wolves for sure.

Also, I played Goodnight, Goodnight to TP last night and was told it protected her from sabotages. I didn't know it would do that. Maybe I should start listening to the songs for clues lol.
 
For now lynch lhmhtd
see I'm worried that some of the real "great" bands are going to be targeted by this tactic.
By the wolves? Idk, I don't think they know any more about our abilities than we do, unless they have ability seering (and if they know how to use it when they want...:yeahright: ), and being a "great" band doesn't necessarily mean having greater abilities...that kind of ranking is too subjective.
 
And the night before that I played Makes me wonder to MadJack and was told he's Led Zeppelin.

Yeah, well I obviously don't believe that. I think that being a band like led zep will likely have better powers.
 
What number?
I am fan #2 and a "plain vanilla villager" (as opposed to a chocolate villager? jk)
I also was told good luck trying to convince the others, but if I make it to the end, (wink face).
No clue what this means.

Y'all quit lynching villagers off.
 
Personally, I'm tempted to lynch these vanilla villagers. If they're vanilla and don't have powers, it makes a helluva lot more sense (if I have to vote randomly) to pick one of them and risk losing a villager without any ability rather than someone who has a bunch of songs with potentially useful abilities .... Just sayin'....

I'm pretty tempted to lynch you just for being Maroon 5, wolf OR villager.
 
They are classically accepted as great bands for a reason.

I also think we might be looking for boy bands or soemthing
I don't pretend to know a lot about these things...but from my point of view it looks like a lot of the ones that have been revealed are considered great bands? Which is why I said ranking which ones would be greater is subjective.

If MJ was right about BSB being wolfy...🙄
