Witchunt V1.0 (WW Variant)

[Sotek]

*facepalms* I hate the internet. My tone always fails to go through. I was just trying to make a joke. I figured that would look less suspicious than just having no explanation for switching to who I switched for.

Worrying too hard about how suspicious you look ... well, you know. Witchhunt! Really anything that looks "not natural" is what's scummy, I guess.

I guess I should put more effort into making sure my jokes don't come off sounding like I'm trying to get people to make deals with the devil. Or maybe I shouldn't? I mean, if I manage to mess up this way enough times maybe people will reach the conclusion I'm being way too careless to be on team evil?

Or maybe they'll conclude you're caring too much about it and guess you probably are evil ... ;)

[Sotek]

Smilies tend to set mood pretty well.

They do help with that!
that vote tally update I was getting distracted from, btw:

Sotek's unofficial vote tally! (13 alive, so 7 is lynch, 7 is sufficient to force nolynch)

Tydude: 2 (Murska, Aemoh)
VA_beds: 5 (Tydude, Internet Flea, InaVegt, Sotek, Eternal Drifter)
Sotek: 1 (VA_beds)
InaVegt: 1 (Ramsus)

Haha, I suppose you're right.

[lostlittlebear]

Too busy studying to catch up on the discussion, so I'll reserve my point for now. I still think Fleeing Coward is being suspicious though, for his attack on Sotek yesterday, then his point switch to end the day early - something that is clearly anti-town.

[Fleeing Coward]

Frankly I'm not paying too much attention to this game but I still think Sotek is bad
As for my switch to end the day, there wasn't really much more left to discuss since Mordokai obviously wasn't going to defend himself anymore. If I didn't do it, someone else would have. At some point, you just have to move on with the game.

I disagree.

This, however, I agree with - ending a day early when we've already decided who to lynch is good. We can't use any extra information, and we run the risk of accidentally pressuring the spy and forcing an early spyclaim or something. Any information we can gain after being sure we want a lynch... we can instead wait for the next day, where the town gets first crack at using it, not the witches. It's the same reason we don't want to say much of anything at all at night - just sort of fluffy posts and/or schedule-related ones.

Thought of an unlikely but better solution to the Inavegt thing.
If the DoB dies at any time before we expose a witch or the werewolf, please target Inavegt with the revenge kill; there are four classes that survive the lynch, but only the Survivalist survives any other type of kill.

And if InaVegt is the werewolf, then he's the ideal DOB target - and enchantress/warlock aren't terrible targets, but they mean more work for the spy... but an early DOB loss means that anyway, so whatever. Yeah, this is a decent plan.

[Sotek]

Sorry, InaVegt, I just realized I used "he" and you have repeatedly said you are a "she". My apologies!

[CitizenFry]

VA_beds, do you want to roleclaim or something? Or are you going to go down without a fight too?

[Milskidasith]

Since I didn't mention, the deadline for this day is now in 24 hours.

[Sotek]

So uh, 24 hours left in the day, and non-negligable odds of a dead judge. (we can argue Mordokai would have claimed if he was judge, but I don't know. dizzylover55 had no chance to claim, really, and of course the two nightkills didn't have it.) We should probably be lynching someone soon.

And if the game's gonna continue at this pace, I think we'd better aim to take out anyone who isn't voting or at least posting and declaring that they're abstaining from voting, since otherwise we're going to end up letting the witches win by default.

I mean, yeah, take out scummy people, but ARGH, this is insane.

[lostlittlebear]

Okay, Va_Beds, to force a lynch.

[Sotek]

Okay, Va_Beds, to force a lynch.

That puts us at one short. I'm doubting VA_beds is saying much of anything so I wouldn't have a problem with someone dropping the hammer, but that's just me.

[Istari]

I'll vote for VA_beds at the deadline, if anyone has another suggestion though, I'm all for it.

[Sotek]

I'd be down for listening to other suggestions although who knows if we'll have enough time to actually even switch votes over - in which case we'd be better off just ending the day now and then revealing some information tomorrow when we're (probably) down to 11.

[VA_beds]

i am a villager...though what role i shant say
could come in very handy at some point
lets just say i could mess up a well laid plan

and there was no post yesterday as the comps at work were in use all day for training

[Istari]

Well if you don't specifically claim, you're going to get lynched, so soft claiming isn't really an option.

[Ramsus]

Well if you turn out to be the Martyr makes sure to jump in front of yourself and get killed in place of yourself.

Seems like anyone except vampire hunter could say this honestly, which means it's pretty safe for any non-town to lie and say? I mean, you're not running any counterclaim risk at all, here, which kind of makes it not seem so helpful to say. At least give us a bit more than that.

[VA_beds]

my role is in my previous post....if you think about it for a moment

ramsus got it...somewhat...just called it wrong name

another hint to solidify it

i DO INDEED have chicken

[Sotek]

Unvote from VA_beds. If he's lying, real Leeroy, now is the time to go off and screw him over.

Ok uh. Who next? I guess Tydude is a good next target, but I guess we kinda have to hurry.

Also, InaVegt, don't know if you saw my question, or if you've even looked at thread since I asked, but: are you one of the lovers? the answer to that may be important in understanding vote patterns.

[Sotek]

I'm heading in the direction of bed, though, so I'd better post a vote tally now if I'm gonna.

------------------------

[Internet Flea]

I guess it's back to Tydude then.

[Internet Flea]

This brings up a point; assuming there's no judge anymore, can Leeroy activate after a no lynch has been reached, or does it have to happen before day's end?

I'm not the mod, but I assume Leeroy can go off after an explicit no-lynch vote is declared but not after time runs out.

Also, a minor thing that people may not realize - if you kind of hint at your role without actually saying it, the people who are most likely to figure it out are the witches, since there's more of them and they can hash ideas out. The witches are smarter than us! In this case, well, whatever, we can say it outright, but if you're the BOD or whatever, you probably want to not hint at it.

[Ramsus]

Switching to Tydude since clearly nobody is gonna join me in voting for InaVegt.

[Istari]

I will change my vote to Tydude

[InaVegt]

Also, InaVegt, don't know if you saw my question, or if you've even looked at thread since I asked, but: are you one of the lovers? the answer to that may be important in understanding vote patterns.

No, I'm not.
