4/26 HUSNG Forum WW Game - Page 3 - Heads Up SNG and Spin and Gos -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

O shi thread up. Would just like to start off by saying that in my defense I live in/am staying in Thailand, which is like completely opposite of USeast time zones so any strange patterns of activity comes from that.

Anyhow Hookt was the one who linked me to this game so until further notice i'll give him my vote.

vote hookt

I was thinking it would be a good idea to start lynching inactive people at first since they do not do us any good anyway, but as long as maruchan takes care of them himself I guess thats waste of voting.

seers please read the strategy guide. it's crucial to the village that the seers play well and stay hidden.

generally it's bad to talk too much about the seers because its almost the only info in the game the wolves do not have. they are desperate to find the seers.

if you are a seer and you have a question about something you should ask the mod in a pm.

you should be peeking people you think will stay alive. peeking a player who dies is a waste.

No, I am glad you posted the link, just seems odd that you get votes against you and then you have a post about helping others. So essentially "you're helping the village to hide your bloodthirsty wolfself"

fwiw filthy is experienced so it's pretty bad for us to lynch him since experienced villagers are extremely important to keep alive.

i agree w/ this and i'd add that the seer might want to consider saving filthy as he's likely to be a target for the wolves.

elaborating since i'm not on my phone anymore. The first comment seemed forced and kinda awkward. Then the second comment was that he knows it's wolfy to lay low, which explains why he would make the first comment. That said, if he's active I don't see a reason to lynch him yet.

He scares me

if i live past the halfway point in the game, my role should be pretty clear. if i am not a very clear villager by the end of the game then i should totally be killed.

i won't be here for eod(end of day). i am flying from ny to sf tonight. but i will be sure to post all my reads at some point before night. 1st days reads aren't all that great though.

lynching mersenneary seems bad for the same reason as filthy--he's experienced and an important asset to the villagers. yes he'd be an asset to the wolves, but that being said he would be even more useful to the villagers and statistically more likely to be a villager. lynching him is very -EV IMO. In the previous game he was night killed d1 because the wolves were so afraid of him.

the way the poggers play is that villagers(and wolves) leave "seer cover". they leave fake peeks. so its hard for the wolves to seer hunt.

the wolves kill off people they think are seers because of the posts they made indicating who they might have peeked.

that means that information in the posts of the players who were killed by the wolves is often accurate.

so whoever gets killed by the wolves tonight, the next day the village goes over that persons posts looking for reasons why the wolves killed him.

seems like it would be not a good idea to vote off heavy posters from the start since in the long run we would be more likely to find out their true role since they are giving more information out, so i think filthy may be a bad vote.

waiting a bit and seeing who is inactive and is likely to be inactive throughout the entire thread is probably still my best bet for a first day vote, even if the OP removes them eventually. If he replaces someone for inactivity a few days in, then we get a new person with somewhat of a blank slate assuming which is better for wolves than for villagers anyway. if y'all catch my drift?

Reason is because I think Earl is a wolf (obv) and I think filthy is suspicious. They both voted for me even though some thought I was an obvious villager. My vote on filthy was mostly to counter his vote and make him as voted as me.
