@BeautifulBritishColumbia, please don't post strategy between close and write-up. I'm sorry for not explaining that one before.

I'm working on the write-up now. Give me a little bit of time 🙂

Debate bounced back and forth as to the identity of the Guard's killer. Some felt that some players had made comments that were less-than-supportive of the Empire. The bounty that Jabba posted was a additional complication - what did he want with WildZoo, and was it a trap? Even if it was, should they go ahead and trigger it?



Perhaps emulating the Jedi's approach wasn't the best way to secure approval for that vote. The others settled on Ceke because of her awkward response to nyanko's death. She was tried and, despite her protests of innocence, convicted of being a member of the Rebels.

Night deadline is 9am EST. 28 players remain

Okay, I'm hesitant to randomly pick someone when I know so little...what exactly do we think the role will be of whoever we elect?
3M how many games have you played?? I recall you playing in several, and not knowing how the mayor vote works just seems way too naive for that experience. Rubs me the wrong way a little.
Interesting to me that the very first player killed off was one key in protecting the Emperor...
Again, comment that just stands out as weird. There would be no way for wolves to know roles N1 unless someone told them, and after a few games I would expect you to know that.
Sad to lose our emperor's protector.
Not sure what to make of this bounty business. Jabba didn't seem to be on either side but out for himself so maybe this is just meant to cause chaos. Could the one lucky person who gets rewarded if it happens really be a bounty hunter and not random?
You mean a bounty hunter player gets rewarded if everyone decides to lynch the wanted player? Don't get it.

General comments:
I see what people mean about Jil coming on a little too strong with vanillager, but I don't really see her as wolfy. Her enthusiasm for Major I just think is her enthusiasm for Star Wars. It would be an awful coincidence for unseerable wolf to be the most blatant Star Wars fan.

SAR asked a pretty bs question at the beginning, which could be someone asking questions for the sake of asking questions. However, she is a noob and I do tend to give them a little more leeway.

Nessy's mayor vote was a cop-out IMO, as well as Ally's lynch vote. So were several other votes. Considering there was actually stuff to work off of today, the RNG stuff was pretty inexcusable.

I want to stay far away from the Jabba bounty stuff. I get that you won't know how it works until you try it, but I just don't think it is worth the risk especially if chaos is behind it.

Ny seemed like an odd choice for N1 kill, which is why I asked Jil if she had told anyone about Ny's role.

Nessy and Snowy are both posting pretty similar to how I remember from the noob game before Nessy was killed off.

I think Ceke was just being Ceke, I didn't find her posts odd. Hence why I voted for 3M over her.
 
First, please don't call me Hilary. Next, I had at least 3 people perform actions on me last night, and I expect to be investigated many more times, and did you read my post about my connection to Ny after I became emperor? She could protect me from death of ANY kind, meaning as long as she was alive, I couldn't even be lynched, there is NO WAY IN HELL I would have been ok with her being killed n1, or really any night. She would have made it to end game for sure if I were a wolf.
Also, Ny is dead. She can't really confirm the link now. Did you tell anyone else about the link before she died?
 
I know BBC just watched the movies for the first time this week, so I don't really want to vote her because even though some of her comments sound sketchy/weird. I'm not convinced yet.

Wait so @BeautifulBritishColumbia did you watch the movies recently?

"Watched"

I was present in the chat where we had the Star Wars movies on. I was there for the social aspect, and didn't do much more than put names to faces for a few of the main characters.

Those who were present can vouch that I was busy sharing photos in the chat bar and commenting about how I thought Jabba was from LotR. :laugh:

Hahaha. That's a slight understatement.
She was also in class during one movie, so realistically, she didn't really watch the movies.
 
Now I'm confused. Owen Lars was empire affiliated?.. weird.

I feel the same way. I would've definitely classified Lars as a "good guy"...so I guess we are literally looking for the rebels, not just any good guy.

"Jubba" I'M LAUGHING 🤣
 
No, that would be dumb, but the link was mentioned in the night write up.
The night write-up does not mention a PM link? It says that Ny was assigned to protect you, but doesn't say if you knew Ny specifically was your imperial guard. I've seen other games where protectors and protected players were not linked with a PM, and may not have been given each other's identities to start. So if you didn't tell anyone you were talking to her, we just have to take your word that you knew who she was, and not just a really bad choice for you to kill as a wolf.

Oooo.. The geek in me just died a bit... :smack:

Owen wasn't really a fan of the jedi because he believed Kenobi was responsible for the death of his brother-in-law, Anakin Skywalker. He also blamed him for the death of his first wife. So while he was a good guy, I wouldn't necessarily say he was part of the rebel alliance.

If I could add you to the chat, I would. It's literally zen explaining the connection and PM, and me saying hi, great to have you on my side, Ny never responded, but may not have been on at the time either. Not sure what else I can say about that.

IIRC Owen only had Beru has his wife. There was another?

This is my third game, though I played the immuno game a little half heartedly lol because I was way busier with interviews than I thought. I never played before the last noob game and never in a game where you "elected" someone first.
 
Feel better, Ceke!

*****************************************
Hope you feel better soon, @Ceke2002! :luck:

Thank you for the well wishes, I feel slightly more human after an extended rest. 🙂

Enjoy the rest of the game everyone, fingers crossed Jil doesn't get taken out too soon, seeing as you just lynched the villager who was probably the second biggest Star Wars geek in the game & could've been a good back up for knowledge of source material. :claps:

It was just an odd thought I had wondering if it was rigged for a bounty hunter. Probably thinking too much about the movies than game mechanics. Thinking about it, that might only work if Jabba is RNG and there is a bounty hunter player. Or maybe it just doesn't work that way at all and it truly is a randomly awarded reward
 
Tusken raiders were an often misunderstood people. They liked to isolate themselves in the Dune Sea, staying away from outsiders except for the occasional raiding parties. However, not all raiders felt the same desire to stay apart from the galaxy.

One particular raider had made it all the way to the Endor Moon. She quickly became the talk of the moon as many there had never met a real Sand Person before. No one's sure who exactly she talked to while she was there, but she seems to have made someone very mad. Everyone woke up to find @raf2769 slumped against one of the giant trees, dead from a blaster bolt.

NOTICE
JABBA the HUTT has posted a bounty on
@BeautifulBritishColumbia
for today only. If she is lynched, one lucky person responsible for her lynch will be rewarded handsomely by Jabba!
 
If this is chaos, it might not tell us what happens because it could change, or depend on how many people vote will give a certain effect. I think it's worth the chance to see what sort of crazyness we're dealing with, and then decide if it is ever worth doing again. Finally, I know BBC isn't well versed in star wars but she should have known rebels = wolves. If it's an honest mistake, I'll apologize later.

Lynch BBC
 
This is a perfect day for me to not have phone access for most of it.

If Jabba is RNG I will be very surprised. I said I didn't like this bounty stuff yesterday and I like it even less today. Assuming WZ is village, she's a bad D1 lynch because she plays well. Doing what that person wants with then suggesting that, and then throwing me under the bus, seems like a really great plan that will work out great for us villagers.
 
Considering enough of you thought I was Wolfy to tie for lynch lead almost up until close, it is a little entertaining that absolutely nothing was done to me last night. Track me, block me, seer me do whatever you want. Blocking wouldn't help village but it wouldn't prevent any kills because I'm not a wolf.

Though I'm also getting that LIS wants to lynch someone he thinks is a villager just to see what (positive or negative) effects the bounty has, which in my opinion is bad villager play. And if that's the reasoning everyone follows then I hope it works out for you.

Dy, regardless of what I did or said you wouldn't have changed your mind, you decided I was sketchy and nothing I do except dying is going to change that. I've played enough games with you to know that.

Anyway, needed to leave the house 10 minutes ago, I'll reveal when I get back on if this has picked up any more steam. This is a bad choice for village.

that's not true. if someone had info on you, I would probably change my mind
 
Weird that I was chatting with BBC about why Jabba might have picked me and such and then she gets the bounty put on her today.

I still need to catch up on yesterday but I'm not inclined to vote for someone based on the bounty thing alone, for obvious reasons.

I get the feeling that whoever is setting the bounty is trying to make it for someone we will likely vote today...

Although wait.. I'd forgotten who they were, but googling reminds me they were the ones that attacked Luke Skywalker, so I think it still fits if the main wolves are rebel fighters, and pretty much everyone else is villager. So I disagree, I don't think affiliation is random.

Also back to the comment I was typing when you posted - I just reread carefully and I'm finally caught up on everything (sorry busy weekend so I only gave things a cursory glance earlier). Based off of something in my role PM I'm actually leaning towards thinking Jabba is villager - though that totally depends on what these 'bounty prizes' are, since if they are really things that affect game mechanics, then I could see Jabba as more chaos. I also am pretty positive Han Solo is a wolf.

Anyways, I want to see what this bounty is.. I'm on the fence about if bbc is villager or not, because I initially agreed with dyachei that bbc should have been able to guess more about who the wolves are if she had a villager role pm, but based off the random array of characters that have died so far, maybe not. But.. I'm really curious about this bounty, and I believe Jabba isn't necessarily bad, so ****lynch BBC****
 
Oh just kidding, I didn't read your comment very well and missed the 'isn't the first role you're aware of' part. Okay so maybe you're right, but from what I can tell so far and from my role, I'm guessing the affiliation isn't random.
