Is that a Hobbes stuffed animal? Adorable!
Also I'm bored, more lynching! Dead chat is more alive than this thread lol

I'm thinking if we have a poacher, that was the source of our second kill n1.

Too bad our blocker is a wolf and won't be inclined to tell us who they blocked 😛
Yeah, looks like it. We should've caught that in the N1 write-up because this was there when genny died.
Seems some poaching took place.
But why would a poacher kill N1? If the poacher is equivalent to a vig, I feel like it's bad strategy to kill N1. Could the poacher be chaos? I'm not sure I've seen chaos have a vig ability before, but more experienced players might know.
 
Lynch capri

for same reasons as yesterday.

Also want to throw out that that Sporty was starting to weird me out upon catching up yesterday. Could also vote there.
 
Kinda want to throw an MJ lynch just for his typical lack of participation, since I don't have much read-wise to go off of, and he can certainly skate by as a wolf pretty easily. Very well could be our blocker we're looking for. Or he's not, and he gets lynched as usual for being quiet. :I
Yeah but... like you said, that's typical for MJ. So you want to lynch him for acting normally? :eyebrow:
 
I need to give the thread a re-read because at this point I feel like I'm missing something obvious. I'm not out until 5, but I'm going to go back and look at all of the lynche votes since I've got a feeling wolves have been jumping fast and hard onto leading/directing lynches.
 
Okay well apparently it was not a good call to think I had time to cook dinner before (original) lynch close.

Also a little nervous about Mel not chasing my tail at the moment. He's fooled me once with amiability, so I wouldn't be surprised to see him quietly pocket me again.
I've participated more in this game than most. Mel is not the droid you're looking for unless my spreadsheet is way off. He's one of the easier wolves to read and he's not reading wolf at all.
 
Oh wait, I just realized Mel died last night (I've been on rotation and haven't had the chance to read through things). That leaves Pippy as the only person I really read village, and I've got wolfy feels from jboo, but not much of reads on anyone else

cuz they killed all the cool people!

What does that make the rest of us? Chopped liver? 😉

Jboo, we had a chaos vig in our noob game :laugh: but it was only one shot, not two, and they won if they vig killed Santa. (Don't remember the actual role name though.)
 
Great now that you're here what are your reads? And why?
Dubz - strong village lean
Jboo - has been sketching me out over the past 24 hours, I rebutted her reasoning for voting me but she hasn't responded
Pippy - the quietness is unusual to me, I know she's said it's real life stuff, but I thought she said at sign ups she would be more active later in the game. Idk maybe I'm remembering wrong, but I'll give the benefit of the doubt here because there's not much else sketchy about her.
Sporty - is also sketchy to me, roughly the same level as Jboo, and I can't stop thinking about what if the wolves wanted one of their own to win mayorship.
Coop - don't really have you leaning one way or another
MJ - too few posts to go on
 
Just in case it helps anyone, I made a(n updated) lynch tracker, all waffles included.

Thank you for posting that vote summary.

I guess what I'm looking at is that there must be at least one wolf on the staffy lynch.

I like Dubz and Pippy for convert options, but I don't know who a better choice would be.

My inclination is to think that one of capri/jboo/Coop is going to be our last original, but that's been going off my feels the entire game... which have kind of sucked so far.
 
Looking at that tally, I don't like how jboo backed off of the staffy lynch when it was actually a thing that was gaining traction. BUT I also don't see how she and Staffy would end up on the same less-viable candidate, when if one or both of them had thrown their weight against a Coop lynch, that may have actually gone through in lieu of a wolf lynch.

Also don't like how many times Coop bounced around on a staffy lynch...AND it would make sense that staffy would not have wanted to vote for Coop if they were both wolves, particularly with this tie mechanic. Otherwise, he probably would have voted her for self-preservation, no?

So, sketch points for Coop looking at that tally alone.

idk I feel like I need to go back and read that whole day again, though.

Will do that when I get home; expect to see more thoughts from me around dinner time.

Ohai.

You have a spreadsheet? Since when?

+ Multiple pocketpocket comments aimed at me...

You get converted, or what? 😉
 
Lynch Coop

...for now; may change that after re-read for timing & context
What an abrupt about face from your earlier comments about me being one of the most cleared players there were based on my interactions with Staffy. Were YOU converted? Besides the only reason I back off was because some personal issues were brought up to me off thread (in a mod approved, non game related, PM). That's why I bounced around so much. But hey you gotta do whatcha gotta do 😉
 
I think tomorrow might be lylo so let's pay careful attention here.
I think you are correct, former accountant/mathy person...

Likely wolf #s for balance are:
2 original + 1 convert = 3 total

1 wolf dead = 2 wolves remaining

7 players left, so that'd be a 5:2 split

Lynch villager today --> 4:2 split going into tonight
Kill villager overnight (no protector, so will go through if blocker is wolfy) --> 3:2 split going into tomorrow

Tough lylo, too -- would have to get all 3 villagers on that 1 wolf lynch for it to go through, if I'm math-ing right. Otherwise wolves can swing the vote the way they want it to go/take out a villager in a tie. Probably better to treat today as lylo 😛

Yes, I am aware -- that is why I said I needed to re-read context. I hadn't looked at votes alone yet...and on votes alone, it appears that Staffy didn't want to vote for the other viable candidate on the board that day. Which begs the question: why not self-preserve? Answer: if both are wolves and therefore both are going to bite the dust in a tie. If the other candidate was village, why not take them out with you?

By that same logic jboo should be equally sketchy.
She is also sketchy based on those waffles; I thought I said that?

But the main difference is that she was not really a lynch candidate that day, at least based on what the tallies look like when looked at in isolation.

I'm concerned about this poacher business too because that changes things...especially if it's not a village vig (which i really don't think a poacher would be a villager), worst case scenario they shoot a villager tonight AND wolf kill goes through

We may be looking at 4:2:1 rather than 5:2. In which case, village lynch today brings us to 3:2:1 and we're ****ed unless that vig takes out a wolf for us, or wolves hit the vig.

All that to say I agree we should treat today as LyLo to be safe.

Yeah I mean all the more reason to treat today like lylo, I guess?

Edit: wait, would we not have already lost if poacher was wolfy? ughhhhh I spent all day doing stupid basic math for nutrition and my brain doesn't work properly anymore

Re-quoting just in case she fiddles with this again lol

If the poacher is a wolf then we're 4:3 and it is actually lylo

I fiddle with my posts constantly 😛

The part that sporty missed was I had a "post in progress" message in there because i initially hit post before I was done. This is what happens when I'm trying to post quickly from my phone :lame:
 
Are you serious? I literally had typed villager and vig four different times, it was a typo.
I mean, you edited it in between there, too -- I saw an interim edit. So, you noticed something was wrong, and said something about posting before you had finished doing the math. That has since been replaced.

Sketchtaaaastic why not just say what the typo actually was

Edit to add:

Yes, this is the interim post I mentioned^. But you said the math was wrong, not that you had misspoken.

EDIT TO THIS EDIT:
LMAO the irony of having a duplicate posting error when getting after someone about posting error.

The edit to fix the villager typo was after that.
It was a series of like 3 edits. The only reason I put the "in progress" thing in there was because I knew that edit was going to take a little longer. The villager thing was a typo and took two seconds to fix, so I just fixed it like I would with any other wording mixup...
 
So if Dubz is the convert (assuming that's not just a typo), just gotta find the original....
Since we've just pointed out that this is either LyLo or every close to it, you should probably base your vote on more than a typo.
