I'm going to hold off voting to see what theohall and Lassr do.
withdraw Isgrimnur
I will tell you what I am waiting for though. I am waiting to see what you guys have to say regarding RMC's arguments before I rebut them.
Just because I have my position doesn't mean I am sold on it. I remain thinking that RMC is the last wolf. I am not certain and I wish to get as much posting out of the rest of you as possible. How is that wolfish?

Re: OOWL Game 2, Day 3
Everyone else has to post their thoughts because I know my own innocence but am not certain of theirs. I also tend to post more so there is a lot of stuff out there regarding my thoughts and the way they have developed while there is very little on others. RMC, Isgrimnur, and (shockingly) Lassr, have posted very little in comparison to either of us. Things tend to draw my interest. For instance there was a comment made about Lassr being "out front" and agitating that I feel was a large mischaracterization of his play this game. I'm trying to get more of those types of things out there so that folks views of each other are shared today when we have a possible miss than tomorrow when it is game over. If you feel the need to vote for me over that feel free. I don't mind being lynched today if I can get a good feel for who the last wolf is (again, to assuage your need that I take a position, I currently feel it is RMC but I am not 100% sold on that) so I can leave you with good advice in the event of my lynching.

Re: OOWL Game 2, Day 3
The problem is they are not the ones RMC accused so there is no reason for them to say anything. They can just sit back and wait while you hope they say something.
I still think it is more Lassr or Isgrminur.
RMC's reasoning as to why he accused you seems sound.

Re: OOWL Game 2, Day 3
Here are my thoughts after much observation:
Isgrimnur was my prime suspect for his behavior after I voted for him on the 2nd day (defensive over just my 1 vote). He has since settled down, lesson learned or really a villager. I don't know.
Theohall was my #2 suspect. But I kept asking myself would I be all over the place like him if I was evil or more focused on getting someone lynched. His bouncing around may seem evil but I don't get that vibe anymore.
Remus was #3. I have gotten a good vibe from his posts which means he is probably evil since I've always had a hard time reading him.
We come to RMC: He was #4 on my list but his lack of posts makes it difficult so I really am willing to lynch RMC today even though he is not my top suspect. If it's a miss then we have more to work with tomorrow.
So I'm asking myself is it better to lynch my top suspect today and if it is a miss be left with RMC tomorrow (if he survived the night) or get him out of the way today.
Sorry for my lack of posts Remus but I guess I could have ezmated more since Unagi wasn't in this game.

In comparison, yes. But has been noted already, I have been much more vocal this time around than any time in the recent past.

Re: OOWL Game 2, Day 3
Then he's going to love this.
I'm going in for surgery Friday morning at 6 a.m., and will likely have limited to no forum access during the weekend as I recover.
We have the deadline tonight at 9 (Eastern again, I assume). Depending on nighttime action, the denouement might run up against my absence, which I would like to avoid.

Re: OOWL Game 2, Day 3
Well, it looks like the others are not going to share their thoughts beyond what they have done already.
As for RMC's accusations of me, to take that seriously you have to consider that were I a wolf it would mean that one the first day with a thirty five to go before the deadline I removed an innocent (as if I am the final wolf then theohall must be an innocent) from n-1 to vote for my partner and thus started a run that got him killed. So you need to ask yourself why a wolf would pull his vote and place it on his partner like that. Then ask yourself if it is much more likely that I am innocent and pulled my vote from theohall simply because I thought triggercut more wolfish and wanted to see what could happen. I think that even if you feel I was just intending to move my vote back you would see that it is not a wolfy move since if I pulled then replaced my vote on theohall and the lynch came up a miss it would only have served to get me way more attention than simply leaving my vote in place and letting him get pushed over for being to near the edge as the deadline closed in.
Anyway, I'm going to stick with my thoughts.

Re: OOWL Game 2, Day 3
I don't think anyone ever places the first vote on someone with the expectation that there's going to be a flash flood. A wolf could conceivably pull a vote late and move to their partner, figuring the groundswell won't be there.

Re: OOWL Game 2, Day 3
Which simply leads to the next part of the question. What wolf would pull his vote that late then place it back - possibly as the kill vote - on an innocent. What other action would scream quite so loudly that someone needed to be looked into.Isgrimnur wrote:I don't think anyone ever places the first vote on someone with the expectation that there's going to be a flash flood.

Re: OOWL Game 2, Day 3
Yes, but that part's speculation in this situation. You're stating that could have been your action, when it wasn't the case. In either case, you could have pulled the vote and not placed another one, and not caused any wonderment.
Regardless, we're on the same vote at the moment. Now we just need the Crimson Twins to weigh in and see where we're going to end up this evening.

He pulls his vote without re-voting and a wolf dying would not cause wonderment??

Re: Re: OOWL Game 2, Day 3
Pulling the vote from an innocent on Day 1, not placing another vote, and the wolf dying from 5 other votes of the remaining 7 villagers? I wouldn't be trotting that out as evidence of certainty of wolfitude. I would think it just as likely that his partner voted on him to gain credence.theohall wrote:??Isgrimnur wrote:Yes, but that part's speculation in this situation.

But then, we're not the same in readings. That's why we play the games. If it could be reduces to probability algorithms, we could just run 100 simulations and award the crown.

Re: OOWL Game 2, Day 3
As with the past two days, the village debated and debated, trying to decide who would get the noose.
Today, RMC was chosen.
As night fell, though, the same thing that happened to scoop upon death happened to RMC. Nothing.
RMC was villager.

Another sleepless night. Another gloomy dawn. Another villager missing.
This time, it's Remus who was some wolf's dinner.
Anxiety set in. Would the village survive, or be obliterated?

Re: OOWL Game 2, Day 4
Yeah, and I feel that I'm going to be the short one here.
Lassr's been dogging me almost the whole game, so I doubt he's going to pull back and re-evaluate at this point. I'm still not convinced he's a wolf, but the aggressive has kept him off everyone's radar to this point.
But you've been relatively off the radar as well. I may be forgetting something, but I don't think anyone's ever put a whole lot of heat in your direction to really see which way you jump.

Re: OOWL Game 2, Day 4
N-1 on Day One equals no heat? What game are you playing? Remus busy calling me the wolf, essentially because I called him one (twice) = no heat. The only one who has put heat on you was Lassr and my one vote - which clearly no one followed.Isgrimnur wrote:Yeah, and I feel that I'm going to be the short one here.

Re: OOWL Game 2, Day 4
I'm prepared to join you, and if you're the last wolf, call it a masterfully played game on your part. We've really got to quit getting the seers offed early.
I may have to try the bulldog strategy in a future game. Pick someone that's not a popular vote target, hound him regularly, and paint myself as not a threat to either group. I'm pretty sure I've seen it work a few times before this game.

Re: OOWL Game 2, Day 4
Alright then....
Lassr
It's up to you if you would like to let Lassr talk first and try to convince you to vote for me. I'm not budging on this one, because my re-read before painted him as constantly wanting to get a specific person killed - with no consequences as to their role - same thing we killed Scoop for earlier. And you earlier reactions don't seem that out of whack to me. It all seemed more tongue in cheek than upset. He also had very little interaction with triggercut, although the same can be said for you in that regard.
So, Isgrimnur, if you are the wolf, well-played to you, too.

Like I said, I'm fine with it. The chips are down, it's likely to be this afternoon before we hear from him, and I'm on a personal time clock, what with my doctor's appointment this afternoon and surgery tomorrow. I'd like to see the scoring after the game and get the boards set up for Game 3.
