Ladies and Gentlemen... a Noob WW Game Thread!

It absolutely killed me that nobody questioned Trashpan very thoroughly even though they implied heavily on thread several times that they had a seering role and people knew there was likely a scum role that could seer with tarot cards.

I've never seen noobs who were so hesitant to discuss and share roles, I think the mentors impressed it upon them that it's usually not good game play and they took it to heart. Honestly I think it made for much more thoughtful play from most of the players. At least they weren't trained into bad habits early lol.

Instead of panda they just kept circling back to me and then lynching someone else

 

[Trilt]

Oh, and the dead have heard this, but we just have to call out that @LetItSnow, with no actual info, lynched BYOB and correctly pegged there being four wolves.

It caused quite the tizzle.

 

[SkiOtter]

Also, @cdoconn I tried to open a PM with you for Day 2 BUT THEN YOU WENT AND DIED ON ME and apparently you would've been able to speak in real words in it WE WOULD HAVE ACCOMPLISHED SO MUCH.

 

[vetmedhead]

also, just to clear some stuff up, I was going to take out DrS the night I died (N3?) because even though I thought she was a villager, I wanted to A. Not die with my ability (which I did anyway..) and B. I thought she was too much of a distraction to everyone and was taking away from conversation for looking for actual wolves.

You're spot on with this. If I were a wolf I would have kept cdo, SkiOtter, and DrS around because they probably would either be the most distracting or the most amusing. A focused village will find wolves, a distracted village will serve wolves well.

 

[vetmedhead]

Okay, okay, I guess I can forgive you hahaha. My fault for trusting too easily! And you did such a good job of convincing me you were legit.

Can I have a moment to express my frustration every time my name came up as a wolf? Hahahaha. It was literally me sitting in front of my computer ranting to my boyfriend "HOW CAN THEY THINK I AM A WOLF? WE ARE WASTING TIME HERE. NOT WOLF. NOT WOLF." I'm sure he got thoroughly sick of me 🤣

Before I played WW I wondered why people would get so worked up about getting lynched, because it made no sense.

Then I played WW and got lynched and freaked out so hard I earned the nickname meathead lol. Lynching is srs bznz

I still don't know if he actually knew anything when he said 2 wolves are obvious on day 1... or was it just a lucky BYOB vote?

 

[Trilt]

If I'm reading the spreadsheet right, she would have died after three days.

This is correct. I think these mason/lover roles are neat, but they're scary near end game. So I set up a pretty long delay so that they can't immediately change the course of the game by both dying.

 

[Karabiner13]

whatever it was, it led to killer seering BYOB and then having a very poor reason to explain why she was lynching him the next day

 

[WildZoo]

I loved that I got to explain that role to the wolves because MJ and I had it so recently 😍

so next time take them out earlier. Good to know

I would be amusing

His hearing aids probably have great range.

 

[Trilt]

And I in turn stole it somewhat from the dragon-rider roles in KC's Pern game. A circle is round, it has no end... 😛

 

[SARdoghandler]

...Okay. I've gone through the stages of grief and have reached acceptance... And need. Can we do it again??😍

 

[vetmedhead]

I would be amusing

I will also add that I'm definitely a distracting player. Nothing against your play style, it's just something that would have made me hesitant to kill you right off (especially because amusing players are, well, amusing). I would have kept BYOB around too if he weren't already a wolf lol

Also not saying there's no room for jokes and fun in WW games. Jokes and fun are what it's all about!

Though, I do say, I would have been FABULOUS in cdo's mime role since I basically speak in gifs on a daily basis.

Yessss!!

 

[deleted806434]

HEY WOLVES so did you appreciate when I accidentally argued for you when HH was up for lynch? Hahahahahaha I had so much regret

 

[LyraGardenia]

I'm kinda glad I have a couple days to breathe before STL's Immuno game starts, I'm scared I picked a tough game to move up to the big leagues!

 

[cdo96]

Also, @cdoconn I tried to open a PM with you for Day 2 BUT THEN YOU WENT AND DIED ON ME and apparently you would've been able to speak in real words in it WE WOULD HAVE ACCOMPLISHED SO MUCH.

WE WOULDVE BEEN AMAZING. SUCH A SHAME I HAD TO DIE

 

[deleted806434]

Also I'm so proud that I guessed the clown wolf role correctly from the evil laughs! If only I would have actually lynched you 😉

 

[vetmedhead]

Nobody ever knows wtf is going on in STL games, you'll be fine 🙂

You saying I did a bad job???


Also, just so you know, I was debating between opening a PM with you or DrS, but I didn't trust her and I wanted a chance to ensure she's not a wolf, and I was going to PM you the next night. But then I died.

 

[Karabiner13]

you guys believed my vague response about N3 too easily. I didn't stop anything that night. BYOB just decided to take a random night off

 

[Doctor-S]

@vetmedhead ... I'll remember that next time and add more ... ummm ... hooting!

Geez! A Human Owl ... honestly!!!

 

[deleted806434]

brb gonna go cry about how much I doubted myself thx

 

[vetmedhead]

Hahahaha. That's definitely a tough role to explain or deal with

Yo I seered dr s that night (With a fortune teller's crystal ball item from KMittz) and then D3 I opened a chat with her IN HOPES OF GETTING SOME INFO FROM HER SINCE SHE WAS BEING ODD AND HOOTING AND IT WAS FREAKIN EVERYONE OUT. Then I ended up thinking she was converted because of something she said that I read too much into and almost told everyone everything but didn't because then it was BoB day

 

[SkiOtter]

Nah it was because he promised to save me for last 😍
(Tru luv)

 

[deleted806434]

@Doctor-S... hopefully no hard feelings 😛 we had a pretty rough back and forth between us, and the wolves laughed the entire time hahaha

there was a reason we kept DrS around 🙂

Yeah. The problem with me is that I knew if I didn't tell everything that night, I would have to go back to gifs and pictures (shoutout to my amazing mentor Kam, btw, for helping me through the frustrations of being a mime) and I had PM'd DrS some fierce accusations, so I figured I was going to be dead anyways.

 

[Doctor-S]

@serher, I thought you were the bloody clown - no fooling!

 

[SkiOtter]

But if you had stayed alive we would've been able to pm all that next day. And who knows I might've been able to try a pm with you a second time, I never got the chance to try with anyone. (And the mods said "we'll see........")

Haha Trashpan.

I got off really, really easy. I think the whole game, I got one actual lynch vote on the very last day. I got lucky that Snowshoe happened to track me when I wasn't doing anything (besides seering seher) and then basically rode that plus the twins not dying instantly the rest of the game.

that and the distraction that was me

@serher ... NO hard feelings at all ... no worries. 🙂

You did an awesome job!!!

Hahaha so much regret TPain!! I doubted you were a wolf even in dead chat until the very end. I thought for sure if you were a wolf I would have seen you talking to the other wolves...

And shout out to Kara who managed to be vague and convincing enough.. So many nights the villages started to vote you and changed our minds.

 

[SnowshoeDog143]

I don't really know why I quoted serher in that last post

 

[SnowshoeDog143]

"You are a Human Skeleton, a man whose thin frame leaves almost nothing to be seen. As such, most night actions are ineffective on you, and it's hard to say who may fall victim to them instead..." wait so did anyone have an action performed on them that was suppose to be on h&h?

 

[vetmedhead]

I find it extra amusing because you were super quiet, absent a lot, super unhelpful as a "village" seer (you didn't even have a narrowed down list of potential wolves, which many seers give when LyLo happens), and you weren't particularly scared of dying in many of your posts. All things that people usually get lynched for. 😛

you don't know how much I started to hate day cycles and just wished it could be night

haha and for a village so strong on killing off inactive players at the beginning of the game... I think towards the end people started to forget about Panda a lot.

Exactly! I'm always suspicious of people I forget about in end game

they tried to be but that was after they were convinced I was a villager and wally was a villager and there wasn't much time left to think

A number of really quiet players made it to the end of the game and I just copied them. I also got super, super busy/had major changes in plans towards the end of the game and asked trilt for a replacement but she couldn't get one. I was half hoping I'd get lynched because I didn't have time for the game (though it was a lot of fun!) and not being around much seemed to help.

The villagers tended to have short attention spans. I'd see something kind of accusatory or threatening, think about replying, and then think "eh, I'll just wait until they forget about it." It mostly worked!

 

[wallydo]

Oh! I wanted to add... I was offered some cotton candy today in the game (left outside my tent), and could eat it if I wanted but wouldn't know what it would do to me until after. I did eat it. Was this an item from someone?

 

[vetmedhead]

Yeah, scrambles are never good for anyone. I'm surprised they were convinced you were village, I think everyone knew the least about you in general. You were very good at the Obi Wan handwaves

Yeah, super absentee wolves are usually a combination of strategy and IRL stuff. Most wolves try to hang in the middle of the pack so as not to stand out too much, so being super quiet actually probably helped you a lot because most people would reason that it would be silly for a wolf to be so quiet that it would be noticeable during a game. Very much a WIFOM situation
