    First off I think based on numbers that there are between 5 to 7 wolves including the rolls mentioned on first page.

    Frank: village lean prior to his assessment of me

    Orla Still not sure she is village.Yesterday felt like a script between her and Fiona

    Fiona hopped in to control things from the start, organising and had an onging head to head with Orla which felt orchestrated.

    Angus - TWTBAW I think village ALso the way shade was thrown on him by Fiona as an experiment

    Nigel- wolfy questions everyone but uses someone elses ISO to decide about me lazy

    Emily - still decided

    Phil- village lean voted for him as I wanted to see how Anghus Orla and Fiona played out and I knew he wasnt going to be voted off. So a throwaway vote, sorry Phil.

    Derry -I feel village maybe on a task yesterday but was trying to keep away from code input Why?


    Abigail - Wolfy based on how she intereacted with Anghus and used her vote.

    Gertie - Old Gerties not much posting yesterday. New Gertie questioning and catching up tbd

    Conor - good analysis, though I cant make head not tail of it, it looks pretty helpful leaning villagey but could be wolf pocketing

    Vernon - wolf based on his ISO which is waaaaay off in its final outcome

    Mary - Village as ye will find out tonight:D

    Oisin - village lean, will look into more


    Vote to be decided.

    7 wolves????

    Yeah I dont follow that either.

    Surely the interaction data isnt worth much as it doesnt capture exactly what people chatted about and most of the content can be subjective anyway.
    Conor WW wrote: »
    Its a fair point for concern Oisin but overall i think she is pro village and has done her best. Her interactions with Orla and Angus seem legit and not theatre; i believe Angus is a wolf and Fiona is not on the same team as him; and tbh id be amazed if she could maintain the level of interaction she had yesterday.

    Added to that is Nigels point that the dataset for the 'after' phase is low.

    The lean is more based on posts, reading interactions and the hard data rather than just the hard data. While the data points to her, i just cant see her and Angus on the same team, so have to put a pin in it for now.

    Lets not get hung up on terminology. Reveal is perhaps a loaded term when it comes to WW. Wrong choice of word there.

    It will average out - wait and see! :)

    I just cant see it catching a wolf, but hey prove me wrong. Good luck Conor.

    And FYI, JUST BECAUSE YOU ARE WORKING HARD (like really hard) IT DOESNT MAKE YOU VILLAGE!

    How will we find out tonight Mary?

    Like I said yesterday have seen games with ratio of 1:3 so i am thinking between 5 to 7 more then likely 5 as I am not sure we hae high enough numbers for 7 but would not be the first time nearly a third have been wolves

    As i said all along its a tool that will help alongside wagonomics and detective work.

    Im working hard because im village, not the other way around.

    Go fourth and do it for the village (its obvious sarcasm after he wanted to appear to be sooo village earlier)


  • Forum Games Player Posts: 2,715 ✭✭✭Fiona WW


    Oh thing I love is the "this argument appears scripted or made up in a backroom" narrative.

    Has this ever happened here? I cant recall it.

    Yet folks, like Mary and others, think its a realistic thing.

    I certainly didnt purposefully change my behaviour because your logging intercation data. I couldnt care less.

    You can see how a wolf might care though, right? If a wolf thinks their interactions are being monitored they might start thinking "I need to interact more/less with my fellow wolves".

    For villagers, interactions have a random nature to them but wolves know who they're interacting with. Once we get a red flip, I think this analysis will give us pointers to other wolves

    Read back the Simpsons game. It won the game for one of the wolf teams.

    I can, but we all put too much thought into "calculated" wolf behavior. Wolves, largely (but not always) just wing it.

    I think if you're a villager and someone makes a remark that seems odd to you, you question them on it.

    If you're a wolf and someone makes a remark that seems odd to you, you check whether they're on your wolf team first before you question them on it and you probably question them in a different manner than you do if it's a villager.

    Conor's data isn't the bee all and end all but in a game where we currently just have Senan's interactions as concrete wolf data and the rest is just wild hunches, I think it's helpful data and will improve with time

    Its happened more often than just that game. Wolves plan and adjust their behaviour all the time. Eastenders was another one. Sherlock Holmes wolves got the sweep with it.
