Agreed, there is still nearly 6 hours left to vote. way to early to determine that there should be no lynch today. At least wait until closer to the time to make an argument for no lynch

Steve gets my vote for the bullet but let him come back first!

Few others putting their heads up too at the moment

How do we know when we are close to reaching that and should we stop posting once we hit the 40 mark?

Well I can confirm that somebody (presumably Conor) gave me one of the prizes.

You can shot me to prove I'm village but it is wasted

I disagree. An FFA is a list of who you suspect and why. It's a way for villagers to nail their colours to the mast and if forces wolves to do the same. Posting FFAs is harder for wolves because they know who is good and who is not so they are ALWAYS making up a reason to include people - villagers list their suspicions in good faith; they can and often are wrong but they aren't lying.

If many people suspect the same person and they are village it gives them an opportunity to defend themselves, moreso than an anonymous vote does anyway.

Eva WW wrote: »

Nah, you see day 1 FFAs are always somewhat forgivable if they are well thought through and backed up by what has happened on thread. You could do the above two as an FFA with reasoning and say you aren't particularly convinced by them but it at least gives something to read about you. What your proposing at 3pm, is giving no indications and fence sitting

To be honest I find FFAs quite difficult throughout games regardless of my allegiance or involvement. I think they are good at giving Village data (I’m
Not averse to them being used as strategies) but for players like me i find it hard to find multiple people to pick out. Maybe it’s cause I’m lazy or just not very good at the game (or both).

That said, hopefully I will have some time to review events in this village better, when games have loads of posts it can be hard and daunting to keep up.

Have read the thread twice and what's your reasoning on Steve? To help with this game but also for playing werewolf in general.

Gertrude WW

Sorry havent really got into the game yet getting a lot of bluescreen, computer crashes and freezes.
Will have a read back

Steve WW

Ok I'm back, crazy day thank God it's over.


Gonna multiquote as post count and stuff.

Mary WW wrote: »

Sorry I've not made it on today before now. Just caught up on thread and think Steve has to be the most obvious lynch for tonight. Open to reasons why I shouldn't vote for you stevie boy.

Why because I gave a wrong answer on thread? Flimsy enough.

Barbara WW wrote: »

Right all done.

According to my calculations there is a 0% chance that Steve didn't enter a guess.

My workings are below

Frank WW wrote: »

That's more to do with my googling skills I gave up and guessed some numbers.
But 'the hairs on your neck went up you say? That's WAF.

This is a lazy post from Frank based on phrasing and trying to shade Doris. Would be on my FFA.

Conor WW wrote: »

I won folks, I left as soon as I posted that so only saw the message now. I have to share one of the prizes (bullet and lynch protect) with someone.

Interesting. No idea who to give it to.

Oh, just saw you went with Emily, I guess that's ok. If it was me I'd have passed off lynch protect and kept bullet, interesting to see what you've done

Emily WW wrote: »

Was it Steve?

Nope, not fired. Almost wish I was though.

Barbara WW wrote: »

Left to herself, the serpent now began
To change; her elfin blood in madness ran,
Her mouth foam'd, and the grass, therewith besprent,
Wither'd at dew so sweet and virulent;
Her eyes in torture fix'd, and anguish drear,
Hot, glaz'd, and wide, with lid-lashes all sear,
Flash'd phosphor and sharp sparks, without one cooling tear.
The colours all inflam'd throughout her train,
She writh'd about, convuls'd with scarlet pain:
A deep volcanian yellow took the place
Of all her milder-mooned body's grace;
And, as the lava ravishes the mead,
Spoilt all her silver mail, and golden brede;
Made gloom of all her frecklings, streaks and bars,
Eclips'd her crescents, and lick'd up her stars:
So that, in moments few, she was undrest
Of all her sapphires, greens, and amethyst,
And rubious-argent: of all these bereft,
Nothing but pain and ugliness were left.

Second poem, Babs is making my FFA tonight for the sheer fluff of this and the one last night.

Good post, agree with this.

Fair play Eva at least you'll let me speak. No idea why my post is being scrutinised so much, simply didn't have the time to PM after I had worked out... as it turns out incorrectly but meh - the code.


My own #FFA1 is

Frank - piece of dirty shade on Doris based off phrasing, seems like picking out something for the sake of it to discredit her
Babs - poem posting and general fluff monster, also wouldn't disclose about the bullet.


That's whats I got so far. Mary would be a distant third but it seems a bit OMGUS so leaving her off for now anyways

Frank WW

Conor what was the correct code?

Was Steves guess right?

Just another general point to make, we should all try to at least get used to some posters styles. I’m hoping if T-1000 takes over my beautiful body that they will struggle to copy my melodious posting style.

I suppose we could try to maybe pick out a couple of posters each that we will try to follow particularly closely. So for example I say I will keep a close eye on Lucy, Steve and Vernon. If we kill one of T-1000 lives and they jump to one of the three I’m keeping an eye on I might be more likely to spot a change in posting?

I find it hard to spot things when doing mass FFAs by going through people’s entire posts. Of course a wolf will be doing these FFAs so maybe with 25 players we could all have three to 5 people each. If nobody gets the same person we could randomise who each person gets so it would be statistically improbable that only a wolf would be keeping an eye on a wolf (or less probable). Just an idea to try to balance out the T-1000 powrr

So why did you go suss on me for saying the lynch protect was basically useless?
I don't want to be all "I suspect you because you suspect me" but it seemed to come from nowhere

And according to the OP no one can peek

Clodagh WW

We aren't going to get lynch votes in this right?

Actually I suppose everybody could be doing this in background so no need to announce on thread who you are “following.

Just a little joke Steve. Don't lynch me for having a laugh.
Anyone can see that isn't a serious accusation against Doris, the fact that I am your favourite to hang for it is a bit much.

This is an excellent point. Great catch Emily that could help later on down the line.

So you don't have one. Grand so. Let's see your own suspicions instead of just trashing mine - I can only go on what's posted on thread and so far you've contributed the sum total of FA other than Fluff.

You're more fluffy than a bag of cotton wool

Thanks

Good luck with the T-1000 if he takes over Barbara and tries to start copying the poems. If we all have unique posts T-1000 may struggle unless they are naturally somebody with multiple personality disorder who is comfortable being other people. :pac:

Essentially you post your top 3 suspects and give reasons why you suspect them. In theory they can be all collated and if there are a couple/3 strong contenders for the lynch people are encouraged to lynch one of those, based on the wisdome of crowds BUT ....the latter part doesn't seem to happen as much now as it did previously, often because not enough people do them.

That said, I still find they are very useful to village and encourage doing them for the reasons I gave earlier.

There's nothing to stop anyone at any time going back through an individual's posts to see if there style has changed. I wouldn't be made keen on assigning people to follow. Might be worth checking people in the future and announcing you've done so, so that people know what you've done, who you've looked at and what conclusion you've drawn.
