because 37 is always a good number to choose.

Homer: "I'm thinking of a number between one and fifty"
Marge: "Is it thirty-seven?"
Homer: "D'oh! .. I mean .. No."

I am ReneLuske and I promise the following:

- My dedication to the village
- No drunk posting (unless i get drunk)

Oh and: either Xr8ed or FCBL is probably a wolf

Okay guys, I'm an incredibly selfish person and I like VR games too much so I'm going to (truthfully) claim "plain vanillager who wasn't chosen by whatever thing chooses things"

Since my name isn't on that list above I'm telling the truth


I will also show my ignorance by asking: "What do those 7 names mean, exactly?" I am fairly sure I could learn this information by reading the rules more thoroughly, but asking this question is easier.


I humbly ask companions or whatever the choosey guys names are to never choose me so I can live until the end of the game. I'm not a wolf, so this should be okay.

And gee golly, while I'm horribly ignorant even after reading the rules, thus showing that there's no chance I was chosen or am a companion, don't the companions just know who the wolves are if they fail in choosing, or at least most of the time?


Wheeee bumbling villager here guys!

So we've got 7 confirmed villagers already, the companions

ElliotR
Epicurus
GetThere1Time
Jennifer Garner
lukethefluke
Pyromaniac
sopoRific

that's quite nice

also, apparently the wolves win if they kill all the companions so we have...7 days to win the game? Which means we have to lynch 5 evils in 7 days?

Am I missing something here?

How is not following GetThere1Time not the best strategy here?

Luckay how would you rank the following on a scale of 1-10
1. your villager game
2. your wolf game
3. your reading comprehension skills

also ReneLuske has the most forced post so far

HAHA! The wolves have 24 hour chat!!!!

I don't know what's going on, therefore I am a clear villager.

You can never lynch me.

YESSSS

You should read the writeups. These folks cannot post nor vote.

Luckay you spazmonkey, read the rules properly please. The companions (those 7 people) can't be lynched, nightkilled or even post in the thread. They choose someone to be their herald and those people become the village power roles. I think if they pick someone evil then they will know that but they have limited communication with their herald and even if they are able to communicate the wolf name to them it probably wouldn't be worth outing a herald to let us know, at least not for one of the stronger heralds.

9 to someone who hasn't played with me before, I'm hella sly dawg

3 after I actually skimmed but it was a skim. This is where I'm at right now. I'm confused as to whether we actually have all the heralds up and running right now or if it's tomorrow. I'm sort of confused as to if we have 7 clear companions posted in the thread, probably not. But I mean there's 7 companions so that's not a coincidence is it? But evil needs to kill all companions to win wtf? Companions fizzle if they choose someone evil, isn't evil figured out pretty fast?


so right now I'm at a 3
My reading comprehension skills are basically how much time I spend reading a post. Varies 1-10. Currently 3



I decided to quickly demonstrate my ignorance in order to not be lynched and to also avoid getting eaten because I'm selfish and would like to last a while. Don't choose me if you're a companion. That is all.

This is wrong, because power transfer does not occur when a pick failed. So the herald doesnt have powers anymore.

This dude has a village lean, wahoop ur right its forced, since i dont remember playing long games with you it should feel forced to you.

Thats how i usually open (at least in my last 3 games where i was v-v-w) so dont read in to my opening post too much por favor.

Funny story: I had hoped I would be a Companion when I saw the thread go up before roles were assigned because from my quick skim it looked like you got to be someone's secret mentor


I was right, you do get to be someone's secret mentor but apparently at the cost of not being able to post in the thread


I'm glad I'm not a companion


Don't pick me because I want to remain a vanillager
If picks already happened, then a-ha! I'm a vanillager.

oh and they also fail a pick on two powerless villa's, a villa powerrole and chosen-before heralds...so yeah probably doesnt help much if they know who they missed on

this is a good tactic, but i dont think it is for now, Selenay hasnt good a herald yet (amirite) and thus can never communicate ITT.

Although now i think of it Selenay might get communication later and every peek she makes could prove good information ITT later on by the Herald she picks later...

Oh right, this game was the one where I was going to try something really cool.

Anyways, it's a pleasure to have talked to wahoopride and Reneluske, I feel I have gained a lot of insight from this conversation, namely that you're both villagers and even though wahoopride is a new name (to me) it looks like he'll try quite hard

1. The queen
2. One more Herald?


is that how it works or are a lot of power roles going to come online tomorrow
