@jmo1012 If you are confused highly suggest talking with your mentor or reading the old noob game thread. That will help get your focus on figuring out what you know, and not trying to figure out wtf is going on.

[jmo1012]

first it was a circus, then a witch hunt like from the 1600s in a village, and now we're on a farm. this is an unacceptable number of scene changes guys.

Stop it. A wolf is an animal. If it is not intended to be an animal, why don't you just call them villains. Then you have villains and villagers.

And why do wolves stay quiet? I clearly have missed the point of this whole game.

It is my noob-y understanding that wolves vs. villagers just denotes "bad vs evil" not necessarily "animal vs human". After all, the wolves are supposed to be werewolves I think so technically they're kind of both haha.

Wolves would stay quiet because they don't want to draw attention to themselves, because then they might get lynched. Basically we are trying to find the killers, but to do so we start lynching people to try and eliminate possible evildoers/suspicious individuals. It's based on the Salem witch trials historically, and books like the Crucible.

Someone's getting a little defensive.....
The wolves MAY be animals, but I don't think necessarily ALL animal roles ARE wolves. And I personally don't think that the wolves are ONLY people with animal roles and that they could be people with human roles. There are other games that DONT have animal roles, but there are still some people who are assigned as wolves. Some games EVERYONE is an animal role, but not everyone is a wolf, like @cdoconn said above

still just a circus. with people who have wolfy roles attached to whatever else their role is titled. The farm was an old game thread that cdoconn pulled in to show that animal does not equal wolf every time

Are there roles out there who "win" by getting themselves lynched? I know of a couple of variations of this game that have roles like that so I wouldn't be surprised... Might explain?

I have not, unfortunately. I have SOME help--a professional poster guy made missing posters and helped me put them up all over town today. I was out doing that for about 4 hours. It's quite below freezing here and it's tough because I lose feeling in my fingers within a few minutes. But I got some done. Trying to arrange a group search/neighborhood canvas for tomorrow, possibly Sunday if it snows too much. I've had a lot of nice people help search. No calls about sightings, though. Two theories: someone took her in and wants to keep her, or she's injured/dead somewhere and immobile. I can't really think of anything else. You can't miss a young pit running around in a bright red jacket, lol.

Anyway- I don't want to flood the game thread with anything unrelated. Feel free to message me. I'm trying to catch up with my mentor, ask some questions, then figure out how to best contribute right now. They might have gone to bed already, though. I have never done this and really don't know how to conduct myself, haha. Thanks btw!

Edit: It doesn't help that I got my 3rd rejection today out of 4 >_>

[PrincessButterCup]

I know nothing since we haven't talked about the game yet hahaha. Just saying that's why she might not be around as of yet. Anatomy exams man, they suck your soul and bleed you dry.

Not sure if you meant it this way or not, but you should not talk about game-related things with other players if you see them irl. Don't tell them your roll. Don't speculate abut wolves. What happens in WW stays in WW (until the game is over).

you can, just say unlynch whoever and lynch the other but bolded and with names instead (obviously)

Cool, unlynch Doctor S, lynch hygebeohrt.

Oh, no, no! Don't worry! We know the rules and figured talking in person is the same as PMing and therefore not cool. I meant I hadn't talked to her about the game having been started yet! Sorry for any confusion hahaha.

 

[cdo96]

Don't buy it.

I mean, I'm sure the dog thing is true (and sucks), but Rule:

Having **** going on in real life does not mean someone is a villager.

Look back a handful of games to where kaydubs (?) was sick (?) and/or had some other real issues going on and nobody would touch her because of it. She skated by as a wolf a long time on the sympathy vote.

WW does not allow for real life. There is only wolf and villager in WW. It has a zen aspect to it.

Real life is for the Rant thread.

Show no mercy.

 

[LetItSnow]

(But I hope you find her, sheltermed.)

You say that now. Just wait until someone plays a sympathy vote move on you.

Smart ass.

[Doctor-S]

Alright. 2 of the 4 wolves are obvious.

Btw, the defense "If I were a wolf, I would never do X" may work for a n00b game but would never work elsewhere.

***unlynch whomever***

***lynch BottleBear***

Message to everyone:

I have to leave for a while to check on some of my patients.

I'll come back later and catch-up with this thread.

Just remember: the villagers love me and trust me because I am a wise and logical truth-seeker.

That's all I can say at this time.

Returned ... and now I'm catching-up with this thread.

 

[Doctor-S]

Someone brought up that Dr. S is "over eager" but that's kinda just her style I think...I'm a little more suspicious of some of these people who aren't talking so much...

Agree with @mmmdreamerz. I have noticed that some individuals haven't posted anything on this thread yet.

So, I may have to cast my lynch vote for someone who is silent.

 

[SnowshoeDog143]

Probably not in this game due to the noobieness nature of the gamegplay... It's probably kept pretty simple.

LYNCH jmo!

 

[Doctor-S]

1. It appears as if cdoconn and some others in the circus may have formed an evil alliance. In this alliance, they seem to be trying very hard to deliberately discredit some of us; and to incite panic and paranoia in the circus village. To my logical and truth-seeking mind, cdoconn's confusing pictograms signal evil behavior.

2. I want to help my fellow (guy and gal) villagers find the killer wolves. We villagers need to stay logical and stay alive.

3. Thus far, I have not found any posts on this thread from killerleaf or from wallydo: they have both been silent.

Is there a logical reason for their silence at this time? Does that mean they are hiding in wolves' dens? Hmmm ... is one of them being held hostage by a wolf (or wolves) and, as a result, one of them is unable to post any questions or comments on this thread?

The reason I ask the above question is because Bottle of Bear has already posted some cryptic comments that "his or her daughter is missing." So, is there a possibility that either killerleaf or wallydo is being held hostage by a wolf at this time?

4. I am confused by thedrjojo's picture of the Rutgers' Grand Rounds notice. Does that have any significance about wolves or villagers? Anyone know?

5. How do we know there are 4 wolves? Anyone know?

[Note to @sheltermed and this note has nothing to do with this WW game. I have been thinking about you and your dog for the past few days. I hope you get some good news soon.]

I had this thought last night...

I feel like these kind of assumptions are dangerous

 

[Karabiner13]

Unlynch Dr.s

defense seems believable and a very useful role. Thinking about who to lynch

Hi everyone! sorry for not jumping in sooner, I had a biochemistry final. Catching up now.

I'm just not sure yet either...

wallydo posted twice yesterday but we have yet to hear from @killerleaf. As far as I can tell she is the only one who hasn't said anything yet.

I think thedrjojo's picture is just an off topic post related to Bottle of Bear lynching DVMD and forgetting the D

Right now I really think Dr.S is a very useful villager. I think cdoconn is likely a villager. I haven't found many past games where wolves have posting restrictions like cdoconn. It does make some chaos but I think that is just the nature of having to post only with gifs. Still not sure who to think of as wolves

I agree that Dr S seems like a villager. LetItSnow jumped right in to discredit ShelterMed, maybe a wolf?

LIS was also the first one to cast a lynch vote...

Lynch LIS

we should try and figure out what Dr. means by being a truth seeker and maybe cdoconn is chaos? it is the nature of posting with gifs, but maybe thats the point

 

[Animal Midwife]

Unlynch Dr. S

That defense is good enough for right now.

 

[killerleaf]

There is not a real excuse for my absence other than just trying to get into the hang of doing this. Have never ever never played; only lurked; and totally forgot to check and post last night. duh.

 

[raf2769]

good morning all! catching up now 🙂

Lynch LIS

LIS wasn't the first to cast a lynch vote, if that's why you're voting to lynch him...
