good night and good luck

Damn. Sorry... I really thought you were off this game.

I was playing with fire, i was trying to avoid the lynch and thought i could. But, well i didn't. I wanted to get a second scan in and break the game open.

Newcastle's reaction to being at N-1 seems *completely* disingenuous to me, BTW. There's something just too performative about it.

that is how I have felt, but Newcastle hates to die early, wolf or not.

I really think i should not "play" anymore on day 1 and 2, since my engagement seems to be a passport to lynchville. alas.

yeah its cuz i cant seem to last past day 2 in the last 2 years or so. i mean them's the breaks i get it.

Hmm, while i am here, maybe i shoudl think it through a bit more and toss a few logs on the fire.

1. What if BB & ELG were both in cahoots and the day 1 squabble was indeed a set up?
2. I kind of am believing holman's excuse.
3. Scoop still seems a bit muted, but probably innocent
4. I think you'll find our wolves in Elg & Punisher; quite possibly BB.

I assume they'll kill Lassr tonight.

Uh, doesn't everyone hate dieing early? I know I did, especially since it happened in my first 2 games.. Didn't really get a chance to play that much in those 2.

Hey. I thought you were stiring the pot perfectly. I just did not think you were the Seer since most play it low key when they are. At least we got your scan. If you had annouced you'd be dead over night anyway. It was a calculated risk. If we had a protector you'd have handled it differently.

Lassr you might as well dump your threat list now too.

It crossed my mind you may be seer when you painted me as good but something seemed off. Seer off, not wolf off though. Eh, sorry. You are entertaining in these games. So wolves take me now and let Newcastle play one more day!

Since Lassr is clean, my top suspects are El G and BB.

I don't think a wolf would have swept in for the Scoop the way Punisher did, but I could be wrong.

I had just been coming to post that Newcastle hadn't actually said anything about his role in his posts, which suggested either special (so seer) or wolf.

i generally dont, because its dumb if you are a villager to give up your role. Because as a unpowered villager i tend to view that role as a fog of war against the wolves.Kind of a pawn protecting a kngiht.

I dunno. Since the wolves would know that Newcastle wasn't a wolf, his lack of disclaiming a role would probably scream seer to them. And Punisher's arguably well positioned to be the kill vote, since he (being relatively new) could claim the bumbling newb-type role.

On the other hand, arguably the better play would be to pull their votes, try to get someone else lynched, and then night kill Newcastle.

BTW, Newcastle, when I called "disingenuous" I meant nothing insulting. There just seemed to be an element of hiding something (like, well, being a wolf and hopefully not the seer).

serious top suspect is punisher though; i really dont liek his day 1 posts. Put the heat on him please.

no offense taken. It was over teh top playacting. i take no offense of anything in this game anymore. outside of being an early lynch.

DIdn't have time, Punisher pounced quickly. I was taking No Fear Act online training and it took an hour so I was distracted and didn't realize you were lynched when I had posted earlier.

1. vorret - ripped open
2. bb2112 - El Guapo, Newcastle
3. newcastle - punisher, scoop, El Guapo
4. punisher - Newcastle
5. scoop - bb2112
6. Moliere - shot open
7. Lassr - El Guapo, Newcastle
8. Holman - bb2112
9. El Guapo - Newcastle

Majority is 4

bb2112 - 2
Newcastle - 4

Any errors I'm certain you all will point them out politely.


Voting is Closed. Newcastle is dead. Write up coming soon.

Wish we had 10 players and start with a night kill. These small games the seer does not have much time to operate. Ideally the seer would come out the day before the last day so we can believe him. With us starting with a lynch he had no scans until last night. If he lived and revealed tomorrow we would have a hard time deciding if he was real or not.

SO, if Newcastle is the seer, then tomorrow is our last day with 2 wolves alive.

So could Punisher have been the Alpha and chose BB since BB played a masterful game a few games back and Punisher wanted that experience to help him?

Damnit. That is what I was worried about. I was pretty sure Newcastle was a special with his play, I was just hoping he was an evil special.

I don't claim that this was a bumbling new guy move... I just didn't feel right about him. He kept mentioning my "laissez-faire attitude" even though as I mentioned, that's been my play style since game 1. That's not an abnormal tell of some kind, it's a normal thing. I figured he was a wolf trying to put pressure on me in case I was the seer (I have only been a special twice so far I believe). That push was what pushed me to vote for him.

Sorry for being so busy. Life is intruding (which is why I offered to run this rather than trying to get someone else to do it so I could play).

Newcastle's life is cut short by the moderator's busy schedule causing a knife to appear in his chest. He crumples over dead. Human to the end.

Newcastle was not a wolf.

Wolves, who shall you kill?
Seer, who shall you scan?

Well, guess Remus took Newcastle instead of me so good luck. I have no definite leads. Be nice if my first guess of BB & El Guapo were right.

Punisher slipped into the top 3 with his kill move.

Geez.. Newcastle wants to off me for being laissez-faire and you move me up on the list because I made a move..
WOPR was right..

You made a move, and it sounded like you used Newcastle laissez-faire as an excuse to get the kill. May be legit, may be a wolf move. We'll know in hindsight.

I guarantee you it was a legit reason on my part. just doesn't make sense to use someone's normal behavior as a reason to make them sound wolfish. But, to be fair, I don't think there have been many true tells or obvious things in this game so you need to deduce with what you have.

The funny thing is that you think Scoop even had a leash.
