    I'll try to look back but I think the key here is that G&R moved off me to move to strawbs. Without that switch I'm lynched based on Yoss's (fake) declare. Its only after G&R's 'Can I switch' post that Lord dives in, which would have saved strawbs if Yoss hadnt been bluffing

    Going from memory so someone should check I've got the sequence right



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,793 ✭✭✭tritium


    See my post above, I dont think this strategy would work given the way all the moving parts go together. Lords late vote relies on me being a viable lynch so when Lord flips it means that Yoss and G&R basically got us two wolves with that play

    But by the time G&R changed Strawbs already had votes, Lord was under pressure too.

    So faced with the prospect of being the last wolf G&R switched to look village.

    Whether he's a wolf or villager it paid off as he was cleared after that, so it's definitely worth considering.

    I've been snowed under with work today but I'm free and clear in the next hour so will catch up properly and give more input then

    I want to have a look back at you, I won't get to that until after 6 but so far I'm at -

    OscarMIlde

    Green&Red

    I'd happily race either of them tbh.

    Just catching up now guys, really sorry for the drop of yesterday. I'll do a full study of the votes when I get home but I don't think Oscar is a wolf, strawbs could have moved to save them on Monday.

    MacD would be me current guess. I'd be almost certain there's a wolf in Lords votes last night

    That won't narrow it down much.

    Yeah, that seems to make sense on the face of it; I'd want to think it all the way through if it comes to that



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,802 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red


    Wasn't Lords vote on Monday at like 8.30? I don't think it was a panicked vote, it was just bad luck for Lord that he happened to be late



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 1,666 ✭✭✭OscarMIlde


    I mean it's plausible as in would probably focus attention on me and Necro. Possibly Jayo, as well, in terms of helping me one of the main suspects.

    It's a risky move, but I think the vote on Trit was insanely risky as it was, since I was a suspect village wagon.

    In a three wolf team I'd be more inclined to believe in one maverick wolf making that decision than a team. I'm not familiar enough with their game play to comment on likelihood of that. I believe people alluded to Strawbs being a machivallean wolf before though. One to consider I suppose.

    Also in that vein in a four wolf team I would be behind similar except with Yoss and Trigs still in league. Strawbs as likely wolf fall guy and attention focused on Lord and I to waste two lynches with two seemingly cleared wolves to munch away.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,802 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red


    For me to be a wolf there'd have to be four wolves, no other reason to bus strawbs out of nowhere unless I was saving someone



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 1,666 ✭✭✭OscarMIlde


    Just to be clear I consider either of those scenarios less likely than straight forward miscalculation by Lord.

    It's a know strategy to softly bus a wolf team mate early in the game so you can point it out later if they're caught.

    I'm trying to get my FFA together and to do that I have to look beyond Oscar. I don't think anyone will consider you for now.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 1,666 ✭✭✭OscarMIlde


    I don't have much of a FFA.

    I'd consider G&R, Trit and Yoss least likely wolves in three wolf scenario.

    I probably still consider Leggy most likely wolf. I still feel Strawbs/Leggy interactions to have been suss and I feel Leggys posting style has been different than usual. I don't think there was any real reason for Leggy to go so hard on me but not even slightly change their views after Strawbs reveal. I could be wrong and she is village patsy.

    Unsure of wm,mc danger and Lorc. I get strong village feels of all. If I had to pick one on gut feeling of so village they must be wolf, I would go with Lorcan.

    I voted for myself. If I had other votes I would go Leggy and then Lorc.

    My take is generally poor though so maybe do the opposite.

    Not quite correct:

    at 7:41 wagons looked like this:

    "Oooh it just got even interestinger…

    Oscar - Leggy, tritium, Strawbs

    Strawbs - Oscar, wrestlemaniac, jayo

    Lord - lorcand, Necro

    Trit - Mac, Green

    Lord voting Leggy

    yosser yet to declare fully

    THIS. IS. WEREWOLF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

    at 8:10 Yoss suggests he'll vote for me
    "i might throw a vote in on trit"

    I am now on the scaffold as far as anyone knows. Lord has 2 but mainly due to Necro pot stirring. Strawbs has 3 but is fine if nothing changes

    At 8:59 Lord has no suspicions on the wagons
    "I belief Leg is a wolf. It’s the strongest lean I have. Trit and Strawb weren’t on my radar yet. Ozzy was someone I named dropped a few times today tho, cause I didn’t like their reaction last night. Are those the three? Kind of feels I’m a forth choice, and not sure if it’s a “wagon” when only three votes declared for each."

    At 9:12 Leggy turn down the offer from Necro to go on a Strawbs wagon

    "That would be racing Lord and strawbs, I've no reason to think strawbs is a wolf yet."
    

    At 9:24 G&R responds to Necro switch by suggesting he might move his vote

    "I'm tempted to switch to Strawbs just to see if you're hiding something?."
    

    At 9:27 he firms that up
    "Any objections to me switching to Strawbs?" -at thia point I am in the hangmans noose based on what we know

    At 9:30, after vote closes, Lord declares he's voted

    "made my choice 😂" 
    

    Basically without G&R and Yoss we still probably have 2 extra wolves in play. G&R would have known a switch would give strabs lynch priority. That vote was set to lynch a now known wolf

    At least tonight I'll know the final makeup of wolf team 🐺🤣

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 3,728 ✭✭✭MacDanger


    Vote going in for Leggy, I've had a niggle about her from the start with the post about Strawbs' lists and I can't shake that.

    Overall, I think Oscar's posting has been more village-like although the Lordy vote switch is obviously the main concern there

    Why would that affect your FFA?

    Also instead of FFA can I have your rank ordered list -please and thank you



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,651 ✭✭✭wrestlemaniac


    Change your vote to who you think is wolf, play the game please



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 1,666 ✭✭✭OscarMIlde


    If I do that and survive lynch you'll have to lynch me tomorrow though.

    I'll only change my vote if there is a consensus on thread to do so.

    If you are village you should be voting for who you think is wolf, you don't need anyone's concensus nor me to try and get you to vote. Your call though.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 1,666 ✭✭✭OscarMIlde


    Interesting quote of racing Lord and Strawbs. Shifting from me would still have two votes, same as Lord. Leggy was hyperfocused on me as 'wolf' would have been aware of that. Was her focus really on her two wolf team mates.

    Maybe I misjudged Lords reason for Trit over me. If Leggy is a wolf than all three remaining wolves are on me if Trit was lynched.

    Leaning more and more towards Leggy.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 3,728 ✭✭✭MacDanger


    100% agree on this. Playing the "poor me" card is not a good look Oscar



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 1,666 ✭✭✭OscarMIlde


    Fine. I'll put in a vote on Leggy now. I like it as explanation for Lord's vote which I couldn't understand.

    If she flips clear I will be out tomorrow anyway.

    Vote on Leggy sent in.
