Voting insanity, that's not a knock on Monte.

Don't know who to vote for in Dwetz vs. Domer.

You should get back to the pub, they're probably missing your funny cracks over there.

Think it's pretty clear it's insanity and domer here; dwetz is pretty comfortably in my top 6 overall though -- just a bad rand.

Honestly I think domer and me is more a clash of styles rather than a clear skill difference -- do you like hard rock or smooth jazz?

domer is unquestionably a higher IMPACT mishmash villager (and probably better at reads too) in the early game; I think my early game villaging is probably the weakest part of my game so I'm more content to let others carry the action. That does have some level of advantage, in that when I'm wrong (and domer IS often wrong, though I'd give him that he has >rand reads) I'm not driving a mislynch; sometimes allowing the thread to take its own course instead of strongarming a lynch yields much more information down the road. My style lends itself well to generating useful information and using it to later advantage; his lends itself well to wrecking a few people and hopefully some of them are wolves.

I think that once a game gets going (say after ~20% of the player pool is dead) or in rare situations where I actually get extra information from a role, I'd very happily put my reads up against his. It's hard to compare mid/late game villaging because his style doesn't lend itself to it (either he gets offed by wolves for being too annoying or he gets offed by a villager for being too loud and wrong), but I think I've shown that my skills in keeping a village on point in the midgame are highly valued.

Similarly, our mash wolf games are different styles. He's more out on the edge (due to meta), I'm more of a survivalist working in the shadows who can still push a crucial high-leverage mislynch through when needed and stay out of suspicion while doing it. I think if you're a villager that just went to DVC after n3, my name is one of the two or three you're least happy to find out is a wolf because you just know the rest of the game is going to suck while you watch your team get pushed off the edge of the cliff and you just pray the volume of lock clears gets there in time.

my village stats:

dies day/night 1, the village is 2-5 in those games
dies after night 1, the village is 12-5 in those games

killed day 1/night 1 in 30% of my village games

as a villager, i've only been killed by the village three times. in two of those games, I was accused of being a neutral because i simply owned the wolves too much (true story) so that probably doesn't count. and in the third, duckburg killed me, so again, not sure that counts.

your village stats:

dies day 1/night 1, the village is 2-1 in those games
dies after night 1, the village is 17-16 in those games

killed day 1/night 1 in 8% of your village games

you've been lynched 5 times, and have a fair amount of day kills

it seems like it doesn't matter if you live or die; the wolves have almost no interest in killing you; and you are killed by the village in a decent amount of your games
