Who are you? The ABC?Then why did you let her in the bar?!
does stl even ever have a strategy?
I am still in catch up mode, but I keep seeing people saying me and PbC are clear. Remember later in game that me and PBC are both prime conversion targets. By everyone saying that me and her are clear, you are pushing their hand to convert one of the two of us (and I am hoping this post pushes back against that)
PBC didn't exactly have an ability that would be useful for wolves to have, and especially since STL was so transparent about it, I currently firmly believe he's a village. Also if he was a wolf, it would be a stupid move to admit to having performed the rez, since if pbc went down as a wolf, stl would definitely be up for lynch.
Anyways, like STL said, if people keep putting them forward as strong village, one of them's going to end a convert. So this has no bearings on how I'll feel later when convert hunting, but I believe they're not originals.
Replying to you and Cyndia in the one post.
In regards to what you said, I didn't comment on whatever anyone else said because I haven't read any posts from before my first post of the day. I'm on my phone at work so just checking lynch development and noticed that so wanted to say something.
I think giving people strong villager leaning from something decently superficial is a really good way to have them get completely ignored up until convert hunting begins and thus get bit in the butt if they are a wolf. Especially since STL would IMO completely do that as a wolf to get the clearance he now has. I'm not saying he's wolfy, I have him as village lean, I just think both him and PBC are getting a bigger buffer than the situation deserves.
I’ll come out for ONE drink
Finished the drink I guess.
And seeing as the day cycle lynch is most likely headed straight for me, I don't really think at this point anything I say will make that much difference, but just for the record:
* My waffle off Genny and onto Britzen, and then later saying I wasn't sure about Genny.
As I've already explained I had figured Genny was going to be a definite lynch either day 1 or day 2. I noticed a certain change in the cadence of Britzen's posts which pinged my interest. I decided to put a lynch vote there as a way of at least giving people something to discuss, maybe a 'heads up, Genny is the more likely wolf, but she's getting lynched anyway so for another lynch cycle perhaps consider looking here as well'. The only reason I said I wasn't sure about Genny (at that point at least) was because last time I had seen her as a wolf she fought really strongly to claim villager affiliation right up until the last moment, she wasn't seeming to do that this time so it did give me momentary pause. I say momentary because after some time to reflect I had decided on lynching her. And we all know how that went (ie I haven't quite perfected the art of sleep lynching, yet).
* My waffling onto and off of other people.
I don't consider throwing out some names and getting a lie of the land from others to be 'waffling on and off people', nor do I consider it stretching. I've already said my game style is to go by intuition/feels first off, and often that's not something I can point to specifically - so I put out some names, let people know what my gut instinct is leaning me more towards, and then try to listen to, and analyse what others have to say. So yes it will mean an ever shifting life of 'wolf leans' but I did eventually stay with the person who at least turned out to be neutral and was also leaning towards the other persons most likely to have been wolves in my opinion, and the opinion of others it seems.
If lynching me gets the focus back on finding wolves, then fine, I'll take it on the chin. But I'll just reiterate again you will be lynching a villager, who, if nothing else, is at least participating as much as possible, and trying to do their best (even if my game style is a little, shall we say 'unique'). I would also suggest that if I am lynched then analysing the voting patterns afterwards might prove useful. I am an easy target for a wolf to shift suspicion onto, and away from themselves, simply because my game style does mean I am hard to read sometimes, and people do end up defaulting me to wolf (wrongly, again, this game). I would be suspicious of anyone leading the vote against me for that very reason - shift focus onto an easy lynch target, and people aren't looking at wolves.
Now do we think wolves would stay off of the snowy lynch, not knowing she was neutral? Or jump on it knowing that it would be an easy series of events to flip as sketchy?
You did well, and it did fit nicely with the story narrative. Basically most Absinthe historians now believe that the ban came about due to a concerted effort from Wine companies, because Absinthe was serious competition, especially in the wake of the Wine industry recovering from a major crop devastation in the late 19th century (if memory serves me correct). Basically there was some sort of blight, or disease, that almost completely wiped out the wine industries grape crops one year; wine became scarce and people began to drink Absinthe as an alternative - and Absinthe became popular, so popular in fact that when the wine industry was finally starting to recover, there sales were still way down because Absinthe was 'the thing' of the Belle Epoque era. Because of its popularity it was also open to unscrupulous distilling practices, where poorer people and those who were alcoholics could buy cheap, and heavily adulterated Absinthe, which did have an effect on people's health. The wine industry seized on these incidents and used them to push this idea, to the medical community at the time, and basically anyone who would listen, that Absinthe was basically this evil poison that sent people completely mad, and cause all manner of ills in the world. Eventually they succeeded in their smear campaign, and Absinthe was gradually banned around the world.
Excuse my salt, I'm tired of reading about the ****ing urinary system and it's making me grumpy
What is an absinthe fountain? A small (usually glass) receptacle on a stand, with usually 2-4 spigots on either side, that is designed to drip chilled water into the absinthe at a steady rate in order to open up the botanicals suspended in the high level of alcohol percentage - the water is usually dripped over 1-2 sugar cubes.
This is an Absinthe fountain in action, the change in colour and opacity of the Absinthe is known as 'the louche'.
Go where? To bed? Yeah. You can join me if you like, we can cuddle![]()
So, just to clarify something about my ask-a-mod results from yesterday -- it looks like no lupine conversions after all, because of Finn's role. The message I got back kind of implied that it was making people good, but I didn't really think that could be a thing, so I chalked it up to mod flair.
But, that maybe means we did start with a higher number of bad guys than I thought. (Closer to 5 woofs instead of 4).
What was your exact question and results yesterday for the conversion question? I'm too lazy to find your post right now, but from what I remember you said there would be 1 conversion possible, and I feel like your info is false (or you're lying) if finns role could convert things, and if the neutral role could be converted.
I was able to ask the mods 2 questions last night (seems like someone bought me a double! 😉😉)
I asked:
What is the ratio of players per faction in this game?
And
What is the maximum number of affiliation changes allowed in this game
The answers I got back were kinda drunk, but basically said:
- the ratio is 1/5 (aka 20%), with one chaos and one neutral
- there is one conversion
Yup would definitely like to see a response to this. Seems very sketch.What was your exact question and results yesterday for the conversion question?

Did you consider the possibility that Finn could ONLY convert the neutral OR chaos, hence there is no contradiction to my info at all? Or are we going to immediately jump to me being dodgeball?Yup would definitely like to see a response to this. Seems very sketch.
Hey Pip, don't ignore my follow up post 😛Did you consider the possibility that Finn could ONLY convert the neutral OR chaos, hence there is no contradiction to my info at all? Or are we going to immediately jump to me being dodgeball?
Honestly, converting one of the third parties would make a lot more sense than her being able to convert something lupine to something town.
The results I got were super drunk -- it was pretty hard to decipher what was being said. I believe we're not allowed to quote mod PMs at all, otherwise I would copy/paste and let you try to figure it out.
And I'm on my phone, so no -- I am not going to do other people's legwork for them and dig up my original post right now.
Believe me or don't, but consider that it would be somewhat stupid for me to share ask-a-mod results at ALL if I was a baddie -- which is one of the things I pointed out when my manatee was getting lynched for it. Like seriously, you both think the gains of a move like that would outweigh the risks?
Side eyeing dubz pretty damn hard right now for jumping there, despite having more ticks for her in the trustworthy column based off of the genny lynch.
(Sorry for the grump; just got utterly destroyed by my physio exam and am a little reactive right now).
I'm chill with it. Your explanation is what I was thinking after rereading finn's role description.I could see one way it might make sense but would like to hear what Pip says first 🙂
"Hey look at this thing I said to hedge my stance on this so I look less suspect if it gets explained with reasonable logic"?Hey Pip, don't ignore my follow up post 😛
I'm chill with it. Your explanation is what I was thinking after rereading finn's role description.
I got bored while getting my heat and stim at PT hahaha(EDIT: thanks, Ski)
🙄"Hey look at this thing I said to hedge my stance on this so I look less suspect if it gets explained with reasonable logic"?
Nope, didn't ignore that, either. 😉
@Trilt @Melchizedek can you please clarify?Also missed Ski's posts, but my thought was towards the more specific wording @PippyPony since there was some clarification about it yesterday after your initial post. The rules say no quoting mod PM's, so I take that to mean copy & paste is oki doki.
Think I'm treading water a bit today...feels aren't super strong in any direction. Keeping it to the top portion of my list.
3m - Can someone who is good at reading 3m weigh in here? I've just got a touch of feels.
Cyndia - Not entirely sure I agree with STL's interpretation of the ability or how she's used it. Pretty good info lynch. I'm still a little unclear on the discrepancy between her stuff and my stuff so might end up voting here since i know everything is on the up and up on my end.
Ceke - So like, idk, reading over some of her posts from yesterday I got this feeling of sincerity. I ended the day thinking "Oh jeez maybe she really is village." I may in fact be a sucker. I'm not going to tell anyone else not to vote for her...I just probably won't. I'm thinking some kind of really low power chaos at worst. Her ability is pretty useless for a wolf.
Rabbott - moving up in the world. Need to see more from him.
Ski - Idk. Just a feeling. Will be ISOing posts.
Cray - Snowy's lynch was unhelpful in deciding anything here. Again, keeping her up here because I'll just ignore her if I don't, and that could be bad.
BBC - I've decided I was tunneling due to grumpiness. Will keep an eye there, but moving to neutral zone.
I'm going to continue to reread and make adjustments, but this is where I'm at right now, which is pretty much...nowhere.
Results for the affiliation change question:
"LISTEN I just think their the one yannao? aseourh, they migyt hurt me, but IDK i thinkaican reallay make himgood ya? idk. Man are we havinga heart to heart? AREW E BESTTT FREINDS NAOW?"
Reasons why I'm side eyeing whoever has the moving people ability...it's disrupting communication networks more than it's helping anything.Gah, I'm annoyed I've been moved and can't message either of you. So - I gave stl exactly what my results were and my reasoning behind using it the way I did, he's welcome to copy and paste it with you if you want to see why I was a little confused.
Since I broke rules by messaging him by accident, I'll also post what I said to him on here - I didn't use it last night. If it's an active ability, I trust the results and it may have been mod flair. If it's passive, then I question if n2 meant something different.
Quarters is a self-protection item. You choose a number and if it matches the item RNG you're protected (I think from all actions, need to double check that) for the night. Sounds like whoever's results you got was blocked, potentially due to the bachelorette party thing? Idk because my role wasn't affected by the party.So two people killed N1
one person killed N2
one person killed N3 with potential protection from a kill of STL
sounds like the wolves could have an extra kill every other night or something of that sort?
I had an item last night that allowed me to get the night results of a random player, but I didn't know who the player was.
the results said: "You try to sit by yourself and play Quarters but women from the Bachelorette party keep coming up and asking for a top up. You grumble because the constant harassment is messing with your aim, and you miss, sorry no protection for you tonight."
(there is apparently another night result that the same person also got that hasn't been worked out by the mods yet, but I'll get that message too when it comes through.)
to me, it sounds like whoever's night results these are can protect, but wasn't successful last night. So that leads me to 2 possibilities:
either STL is lying about his protection or there is more than one protection mechanism out there in the game still
ah ok this makes sense. didn't realize quarters was a self-protection item. That makes me lean towards believing STL's protection, and back to the double kill every other night theoryQuarters is a self-protection item. You choose a number and if it matches the item RNG you're protected (I think from all actions, need to double check that) for the night. Sounds like whoever's results you got was blocked, potentially due to the bachelorette party thing? Idk because my role wasn't affected by the party.
Agreedbut having 2 kills every night seems a little too wolf-leaning for the game.. so idk. but if there was someone blocked on N2, it might be interesting to know who that was.
I believe typically blockers (straight block, not jailkeep) are notified of successful/not successful blocking, but not what other actions (if any) were performed on the blocking target, or what actions they successfully blocked.if someone is able to block and they were successful at blocking a kill, would the blocker be notified about it?
