    Fair point, that would be the ultimate worst case.

    I’ve just read Will’s role again. I know, it’s a short brief but I overlooked....

    “ Can pick a two hour period of time once a day”

    Question about the DemoG - can he kill or just convert? does he select a convert overnight and they go to his side after munch?

    “ Serial Killer
    Demogorgon – Each day recruits a player to his team. Can only die by lynch or Eleven attack – When he dies his mindless band will die with him. Powers can move with players who are converted”


    Eva’s idea of dividing into 2 groups might be a better way.

    I'd agree with this too, always keep halving, and scanning the bigger of two unequal halves.

    18, scan 9, positive or negative points you towards the next group, scan the 5, if positive, its in the 5, if negative, its in the 4.

    Only way that splitting in three betters the result is on a positive 1st scan. so 66% of the time, halving is better than a 3 split.

    There's only two scans though right? So can only split group twice. Would be better to scan two seperate groups


  • Forum Games Player Posts: 3,202 ✭✭✭Jake WW


    Group 1
    Abigail WW
    Angus WW
    ASLVB
    Barbara WW
    Brendan WW
    Clodagh WW
    Conor WW
    Eva WW
    Fiona WW

    If Group one reveals a positive then the first 5 (Abigail WW,Angus WW,ASLVB,Barbara WW,
    Brendan WW) then post in next time slot.

    If Group 1 reveals a negative then the DemoG is in the following players. The first 5 should then post in the next time slot.

    Frank WW
    Jake WW
    JP Liz V1
    Kathleen Grant
    Katie WW

    Necro
    Steve WW
    Trigger
    Wendy WW

    That sound right?

    two scans, yes.

    split 3 way = 18, scan 6, then another 6, if both negative unscanned has dg
    split 2 way = 18, scan 9, using the results, scan the next biggest half.

    split 3 way narrows down to worst case 6.
    split 2 ways narrows down to worst case 5.

    split 3 ways narrows down to best case 3
    split two ways narrows down to best case 4

    3 way split requires more luck, split 2 ways statistically gives a better result if repeated again and again.

    Looking at that it like he converts initially, but when he is killed all the players that he has converted die with him,

    Nothing for now seemingly, you're in group two. So if the Demogorgon is in group 1 then you likely won't even be scanned... I think.

    If the first group scans negative, the 1st 5 of the second group will be scanned the following day. If that's negative it leaves a 1 in 4 chance.

    If its positive the first 5 of group 1 gets scanned etc

    Well everyone has to play their part by other posting in the designated time slot or resisting the urge to post in that time slot too.

    We need the first Group to all check in and let us know when they’re available tomorrow to post. Only has to be once with a window of time.

    We’ve also a competition so can be in those hours. Then we’re getting ready for lynch so everyone will want to talk. I personally think 10-12 tomorrow morning would be best.

    Thoughts?

    I'm sure everyone in that group could pop on even to their phone and add one post in a 2 hour timeslot. We would also need all of group 2 in agreement to NOT post during that time.

    Maybe if you agree to the above a quick quote and yay or nay, if you definitely cannot post during that time that needs to be confirmed , and we could switch out for a poster who definitely will be able to

    Yeah that's what I mean, KG is in Group 2 - so if Demi Gorgonzola is in Group 1 she won't be scanned :D

    Couple of older posts that I think are worth questioning...

    I can't sign in.
    So Katie has a backroom. New players could though, right? My gut says that's the most likely, no way a wolf makes this mistake... surely?
    JP Liz V1 wrote: »
    Interesting could DemoG or another wolf be in this group from this talk?

    I'm just speculating guessing nothing concrete, are they trying to catch Will out
    Well this is an interesting take :D
    My reading of the OP is the demigorgan is on their own, so there's no coordination for them, and that the wolves want the demigorgan dead too, so there's no reason for them to try to mess up Will's power.
    Again, my gut says this is Liz being villagery, but slightly insane. Far too unsubtle to be a play.

    Can i swap out into group 2? is there anyone who would like to take my place.
    There is no difference in being scanned or not being scanned, as 9 not dg and 9 could be is the result, so there is no reason other than the reason I now present for me wanting to be in group 2 rather than group 1. I may not be able to get on between 10am and 12 tomorrow.
    If i was to give you a 100%, it would be that I could easily not post between 10 and 12, but there is a chance that I might not be able to post in that window tomorrow due to work, so if someone else could swap out for me, that would be great.

    Just catching up on the thread now. Liking the plan.

    I can post between 10 and 12 if needed tomorrow, but if it makes no difference and any of the early birds from the other group would rather post during that time, feel free to swap with me as I prefer when I don't have to wake up before Noon (and I've had feck all sleep the last couple of nights too, so it means I wouldn't have to set an alarm if someone wants to swap)


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,134 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    The names don't really matter as long as we have the correct number of people.

    If you're available for the timeslot tomorrow say so and we can make our list from that.

    I don't like tying people down specifically to certain times unless they're actually available.

    I'm WFH this week so much more available than I would be if in office as an example so any time suits me really.

  • Forum Games Player Posts: 3,760 ✭✭✭Angus WW


    I agree. We should just get eight names to show -and maybe a sub too, as someone is going to be munched tomorrow morning is that right? And the munched one could be in the first group.

    Does it work if we just keep count of people posting after 10am? Once we got 9 someone could announce that no one else can pay until midday. Might be easier than filling the list now?

    So a flavour munch means no one dies? Only sixteen players signed up and there are 18 in the OP. So two players are fake?

    If this plan of 8 is agreed on, then if I were a wolf, I would be online 10am-12 looking to see a "ninth" player, an "uninvited" player(s) in the online list at the bottom of the Werewolf forum.

    So this is a just a message to Will Byers to be careful not to expose yourself!

    I'm hesitant to even interact with Liz at all because of how much her style of play frustrates me, and I don't want to risk opening a can of debating worms and unleash her tunnel vision upon myself, but I do love that Confident song, so I do have to say kudos on the song choice Liz... :D

    I'm sure Will doesn't need to be on, but the fact is he could be in either group, I think he just gives his time to the mods. Not sure if before or after.
