Oh man i can’t read and thought Zig created a tie. I was like oh snap. Increased my heart rate then realized i can’t read. UNNECESSARY STRESS

 

[ziggyandjazzy]

Wtf? That is WW 101. Never miss a lynch, the more lynches the more chances to get a wolf. Grow up.
And who wouldn’t tie if they are in the lead wolf or villager, that is WW 100.

Don’t get your vehemence for basic facts,

I don’t like her lurking, but self preservation is normal,

Weirder is not joining the MSU lynch

Your logic makes no sense

If I was a villager and could tie it up with someone I thought was village, potentially taking them out with me, then I wouldn't do it

That's the exact reasoning I have a village lean on you, because Mel was willing to take you down with him.

See you messed up a tie between 2 wolf candidates, would help,village to eliminate them both now.

What the hell. No. You're going to be mad at me but not sporty?!

I never considered Dina to be a wolf candidate

If you are really sure the6 are village ...agreed. But this is WW. If they are a lynch candidate they are also looking wolfy to people so better a chance to take out a potential wolf, the logic makes perfect sense,,,trust me when it comes to strategy...I have been doing this for more years than you have probably played games,,,,well, maybe not,,but you get the point I hope

 

[MSUcvmHOPE]

See you messed up a tie between 2 wolf candidates, would help,village to eliminate them both now.

Or you could instantly lose 2 villagers in one day.

 

[StartingoverVet]

What the hell. No. You're going to be mad at me but not sporty?!

Others do. You only seem to see this game through your eyes, that is dangerous

 

[WildZoo]

Or you could instantly lose 2 villagers in one day.

Such a pessimistic way to look at things

 

[StartingoverVet]

Or you could instantly lose 2 villagers in one day.

Villagers win by lynching, it is mathematically proven that more you lynch ...all else equal....the more you increase your chances of winning, if you never lynch anyone you learn nothing and lose

 

[ziggyandjazzy]

Oh man i can’t read and thought Zig created a tie. I was like oh snap. Increased my heart rate then realized i can’t read. UNNECESSARY STRESS

No, I was hanging around in case someone tried to pull some bull****. And yeah, someone did. Wtf sporty. idk how she is getting village read by everyone...

 

[ziggyandjazzy]

Others do. You only seem to see this game through your eyes, that is dangerous

I really don't care what you think lol of course I see the game through my eyes, they are my eyes

 

[StartingoverVet]

Anyway...you guys don’t want to accept this, fine, but there are some very weird misconceptions how to play this game by the new generation IMO.

 

[StartingoverVet]

You really miss the point, let’s leave this conversation and ask me again post game,

[MSUcvmHOPE]

That's not relevant to this tie.
That's about people voting in general. Yes absolutely true. But let's just say me and whoever I chose between Cray and Dina was village. Oop and we both get RNG killed and maybe even the tie maker, then a villager gets NKed.
Explain how this would be better?

 

[MSUcvmHOPE]

Such a pessimistic way to look at things

My brain is almost paranoid with my level of pessimism irl. Always think of what could go wrong and be prepared.

 

[ziggyandjazzy]

Of which I apparently have neither

Sure ..if you give me perfect informatiom and tell me all villagers are involved then you are correct. Doesn’t work that way in ww does it? You need information, and the only confirmation we ever get is when someone is killed. We learn something every time.

Think of it this way,,in a straw man argument...,if you are a villager and can lynch every single other player wouldn’t you?

 

[WildZoo]

If we get rid of all the sketchy people during the day before the wolves can get rid of all the clear players at night, we have a much greater chance of lynching a wolf.
Sure you might lynch two sketchy villagers in one day. But then, you only lose one clear villager overnight, and the next day you have a greater chance of lynching a wolf.

Or, you lynch one sketchy villager. Lose a clear villager at night. Probably lynch the other sketchy villager the next day. Lose another clear villager at night.

Of course that's not how you want to play endgame, but we've got wiggle room here. Ties are good, guys. It's too bad the game design disincentivizes making them.

 

[StartingoverVet]

Of which I apparently have neither

Youre on my villager list, so clearly I think you have done s9mething right,

 

[WildZoo]

And that's not even going into the fact that one of those people might be a wolf anyway.

It makes sense but the anxiety over that quick loss in numbers late game makes my brain sad.

Day 7
***

Today we journey back to Vermont, to a mountain that is known for being family-friendly and happy. Okemo Mountain Resort sees over 600,000 visitors per season, making it a very popular place to ski. Many families who ski there feel a strong sense of loyalty to the mountain and return year after year.

The South Face area has the highest peak on the mountain, faces the sun in the morning, and is served by a 1,100-foot (340 m) high-speed lift. This area is known for its more difficult terrain, including most of the double-black diamond trails. Intermediate skiers find their home in the Solitude region, which also has its own village below, complete with lodging, restaurants, and shops. One skier found herself to be ravishingly hungry after a day of tackling the blues, and settled in for a Belgian waffle feast in Solitude Village. She was so passed out from her food coma afterwards that she missed the bus to the next mountain.

Late game with half the wolves dead (2/3 of the originals!) is different than late game with all the wolves still alive. We have all the info of two wolf flips to help. It's not like we're creating ties at random.

My manator told me to be suspicious of people who make ties. Particularly right near lynch close

Well I found nothing to indicate when the conversion occurred or anything else super useful. I am assuming it has occurred since we're down to one original but who knows.

Did find this though, and got a chuckle. Hadn't caught it before

Dead is @Mad Jack , Mad River Glen - Vanillager

Indeed, a ski area for those with a little touch of the crazies.

 

[SportPonies]

No, I was hanging around in case someone tried to pull some bull****. And yeah, someone did. Wtf sporty. idk how she is getting village read by everyone...

Hardly bull****, chill out. MSU was reading village to me, and there was no way for me to flip lynch off of her, so the best I could do was tie it and RNG and hope the other (presumably less village-y) person died.

UNLIKE one (and arguably both) of my parents, I don't just cause chaos for the heck of it.

ETA: Apparently I also keep forgetting how the tie stuff works here so that logic was definitely flawed, but by god, it was the logic I was running with.

Can't tell what your motivation was here. You doing that is what caused me to lynch her. Did you not know your own neck was on the line or not care?

@Dinashadow can we get some spicy analysis out of you??

c'mon @Skimble don't ruin your perfect record

I know I haven't given much to go on this game

it always happens when I'm behind on thread to drop off the planet... the live PbPa I usually do shows you when I'm keeping up and where, and where I'm catching up from, with my reading to catch up it's mostly been scattered likes which also shows where I am in all of this

wolf or not, I don't lurk, and where I am in the thread is always pretty transparent, as well as how active on SDN and on the game, and exactly why

I have zero to gain by being less active for wolfy reasons.

I don't think my Mel vote was placed in a wolfy bandwagon spot but I haven't looked that closely

Are you caught up? do you have reads?

If I can't lynch SOV today I want to lynch either sporty or SAR.

But for self-prez

Lynch Coffee

I think thats who's in lead? Dubz what the **** are you playing at right now? and next time y'all decide to put me in the lead out of nowhere, I'd appreciate a tag.

Unlynch coffee

I don't even know anymore. I didn't put you in the lead though.

probably staying here so I don't cause any more trouble. Let the people who have their brain turned on figure things out.

DONT LYNCH ME
