yeah, in for part II too

just rand me villager, ok?

Glad to hear that there's interest in a Part II. I haven't begun development on it yet but will promise to be all kinds of paranoid about trying to think through every contingency up front so that nothing can feel like a surprise late.

Suuuuuuuure you will

Obviously the whole rand goes differently if you don't come into the signup thread and convince me to pull some firepower back from the wolves.

Well, yes, there is that

like, just put a role in that automatically modpeeks me n0

I'm cool with that

That was before I got home. I called you a villager as soon as I read more than three of your posts.

Yeah true to form they found a way to lose.

wasn't following closely after I died; what's the deal with people being mad at gambit?

Awful gif game.

Monte saying that he suspected that gambit may be putting on a Kaufman-esque performance art piece was hilarious.

suq, get your vote off me, I'm the seer

Suqata

i'm still not convinced that wasn't the case, actually

I'd like to think I put in a decent enough shift Friday. Captain Monte asked for 50+ posts giving thoughts on the game and so I did. Was actually a lot of fun with it hanging in the balance like that.

did anyone speculate that one of the reasons I was killed was that I thought DWetzel was a wolf?

Lots of people thought I was vaguely wolfy

Then I wasn't

Then I was

Then I wasn't

Then we ran out of game states where other people could be not villagers

Also, if hero shooting me every n1 is going to become a thing just let me know in advance

I know I didn't. I thought they killed you because they thought you were acting wolfy/emo because you randed a PR and wanted to make it to d2 and because you're good and stuff. I didn't angel you because I thought you might slip through the web, sorry

it would have been d2, and it wasn't that much of a hero shot

i realized after EOD that the line you were taking w/r/t me on d1 made no sense (in part because it was so gratuitously aggro) and is something you would never do as a villager, because you are ~always one of the most level-headed and analytical players in the game

so going HAM on me because I had voted you without giving a reason, and then going HAM on me for hounding you when I had done no such thing, and then disregarding any attempts at actual dialogue, and then going HAM on me for faking being sad because I was supposedly tired of wolfing was extremely, extremely out of character for you

so, yeah...if you're like that next time, then i will definitely shoot you at my earliest convenience

no apologies necessary at all for not angeling me; i wouldn't have angeled me in your spot

and approximately ~2 percent of my posting like that was because I'd randed a PR (compare my d1 posting there to my d1 posting in Dexter)

next time i rand villager and make it to d2, though, i definitely need to remember that wolf nks in mishmashes are pretty straightforward a surprising amount of the time

HOW MISHMASH WOLF TEAMS USUALLY CHOOSE PEOPLE TO KILL N1

here's how most of the n1 nk decisions are usually made in my experience:

1) is this person generally a strong player?

2) has this person pushed one or more wolves that most of the thread thinks are villagers? (bonus if they have also cleared one or more villagers that most of the thread thinks are wolves)

3) will it be difficult to mislynch this person?

if the answer to these three questions is yes (or if two or a strong yes and one is a maybe), then the person is a top nk priority, and then you do the secondary calculus:

1) of the top nk priorities, which have seer or strong PR equity?

2) of the top nk priorities, which are least likely to be angeled?

3) of the top nk priorities, which is likely to cause the least amount of blowback onto the wolf team?

...and then you usually end up with a pool of nk targets to match to however many kills you have

all of which is to say that i think it's actually somewhat easier than people think to reverse-engineer the identity of some of the wolf team based on the n1 kills (i.e., assume as a strong starting point that the person who was killed probably got a lot of stuff right, or at least one or two really important things right (like the identity of 1+ deep cover wolves), and further assume that strong and active players who weren't killed are >rand wolf by virtue of this alone, in many circumstances), and i'm interested to put this into practice next time

(future wolves will not adjust even if they see and remember this post, because wolves are generally lazy and disorganized on n1 and tend to default to straightforward solutions)

i assume gab was a spk

monte, i think angeling yourself was the correct play for sure
