Just pointing out we have no reason other than PBC's own words to believe she was really a lone wolf, unless the mods went back and made adjustments to the writeup. She's in the same color as the other wolves and there was nothing in what they told us of her role to indicate that she was alone.

When was the conversion related one received?

This makes it sounds like "the selfish one", who was one of the converts, could convert another.

Tuesday. Yeah, I could see that.

Hey, who tithed last night? Abney and who else?

Three plot against Pern ... early, don't know exactly.
Tithe or all will cry when threadfalls .. Mondayish - You know, right when I started shouting for people to tithe, for serious!
Conversions .. Tuesday.

So d4? Ok, so by that point Gwen was already converted. I think you're right in that she could have been changed back if dy had been resurrected. But since she wasn't, if I'm right in my interpretation I think we are probably looking for two converts, plus a chaos/neutral.
 
I'm always sure that wolves are going to eat me in my sleep.

I got an interesting tithed ability. No idea how to deploy it helpfully. Trying to sort out what it might suggest about the person who handed it off, if I can suss out who that was.

I'd actually only guess 1 convert, since the message itself makes it seem like Gwen had not yet converted another, only that she had the potential to. The following night was cancelled, and then we lynched Gwen.

Oh, good call. I had forgotten what day gwen was lynched. That's better then.
 
Yes, I have a bug up my butt about DVMD. But there are reasons for my continued distrust, besides that she keeps wanting to lynch me, and that she cancelled night on a night when Sands rez ability had been tithed, and I'd all but said outright that I planned to use it to bring her back so we could have a healer.

Is it just me, or is it at least slightly off to have a villager have only a one time use ability, and nothing else? Particularly in a game where a major mechanic is donating abilities to other players? And for that ability to be something as extravagant as cancelling an entire night. In a game with so many communication abilities and other minor abilities?

Here is my thought... if she is a villager, she doesn't have an ability, can't tithe, (and wouldn't when she could.) And, since she doesn't have a dragon, if lynching her is a mistake, at least it isn't a kill two villagers with one stone kind of mistake.

If she is some kind of neutral/chaos/other thing, maybe she did have a baseline ability and didn't want to be found out by tithing it. Also, lost a dragon... even if her role was benign to start, could have been converted.

So, finally, Lynch DVMD

Believe me or not, I'd be happy to be wrong about her. If anyone can speak for her, if anyone has a strong vouch that she is a villager, I'll reel it in.

If abneys tithe really didn't go through, then it had to be from FFM

We'd be happy to! :hungry:

While you all are chasing your own tails on thread, I'm at homing cooking brisket. Tasty villager brisket. 😏

Have fun!

It could be protective, villagey.

It could be something else. It doesn't seem wolfy, exactly.

It just isn't an ability that I've encountered before. I'm over on the mafia rules wiki trying to sort out whether FFM is a good witch, or a bad witch.

What I'm saying is it doesn't sound like what I assumed FFM's ability to be...

Vote WZ then so I can figure out whether I should be pleased with myself or should feel like an idiot.

Stop it. Now you're just being ridiculous. It's one thing for you to vote on your tenuous feels but to push a lynch that you don't have anything for except your paranoia? Please.

Everything is feels at this point. We're looking for converts. I don't feel like mine are particularly tenuous but I certainly understand why you disagree.[emoji14]
You're an egg that's going to preoccupy me until you're cracked.

No, not everything is feels. There is analysis. There is reading posts and looking at the interactions between known wolves and living players. Even when looking for converts there are things you can point to in the thread, in the posts, that would lead to your conclusions. But you have none of that or at least you haven't shared it.
 
Kam is likely village. Feels. I've gone back and forth, but...
Lupes trusted Abney and Rez Mike up through her untimely demise and that carries weight with me.
FB role revealed... did she give a specific dragon name? Just curious. Dragon would be a great thing for a convert to claim, after all.

We are all going to get more and more paranoid as we move into endgame. That is why I am for a DVMD lynch. At least I will get to feel good about it. The risk/benefit ratio looks favorable to me. I can't say that about most speculative lynches.

I've shared it in our hold. Will post it here shortly. And yes, I've used the above to narrow my list down to 5, the others I feel very comfortable excluding. I meant it was feels past that point.

Deplaning. Will copy paste from hold PM in a sec

I believe DVMD is village, for what it's worth.

Nothing you said in the hold said anything about my posts, my votes, my behavior, or anything that I would count as basic analysis.
 
QUOTE="Kam325, convMessage: 4299835, member: 602233"]It's a lot of little things. A feeling. Some I won't point to. Some others---the fact that MJ, Guis, and I are all still alive, when I wouldn't expect us to be. We've all been openly trustful of you. A good convert would leave a buffer of villagers who trust her. The fact that as far as I remember you've never been seriously considered for lynch. The fact that if I was a wolf, you're likely the one I would have chosen to convert. The nature of Meathead's defense last night in Hold PM, though there's one thing I think you might have caught and stopped, giving me a little pause. You've seemed exceptionally villager all game, so I realize this must be really obnoxious if I'm ****ing this up, but that's what you'd want from a talented convert, and you're a talented wolf. Sorry, I realize that doesn't give you anything to defend.[/QUOTE]
 
Well that quote is ****ed but you get the gist.

From the 5 I have it narrowed down to, you're my pick based on the above. I know it's not solid, but we don't have anything solid, so we go with what we've got.
