I'm not bugging anyone. I threw your name out as a possible good wagon for today and you way overreacted.

I had read that you said that when I posted my take on it and suffice it to say I disagree, however I won't comment on SK strategy any more as everyone is giving me wolf points for it.

For that reason I'm going to unvote and find a better wagon. Jack doesn't look too bad right now. Neither does corsakh.
i can do with a second wagon on corrsakh but i want night lynched in the next few days cause if he come back wolf or villa it will tell us something about who is defending him since D1

Just make sure you put a wolf alongside me (Karak). If I'm wrong about Karak feel free to turbolynch me tomorrow, but fyi, I'd never put the spotlight on myself like this as a wolf by going cutthroat for another player.
I don't think you're a wolf here FWIW.

I also think you'd be a terrible wagon for today. Might check out the people currently on it if i'm not too lazy.

the correct response would have been "oh yeah i didn't think of that..." as a villager, no matter your actual thoughts, but at least you didn't list whatever reasons you had for disagreeing.

I still think I'm right obv.

Ok, it's d1 so I can buy that.

But you still made it perfectly clear in your post that the SK should be seerhunting, that that would be his best option. The SK might not make the same conclusion on his own, especially if he's a rook, but there's a damn good chance he's seerhunting now. If you thought that the SK would seerhunt, you should have shut up about it and done your best to analyze nk's from day 2 onward until you thought you had a suspect, THEN explain why the SK going after seers is a smart thing and that's why you think XXXX is doing it. Your post guarenteed that the SK would immediately start doing the worst possible thing for the village.

My point was you seemed to be gunning for the people who are typically easy to lynch. Most experianced players would shy off on immediately lynching those until d2 or d3 to get more information. If you know a player constantly seems wolfy no matter what his/her role you don't try to lynch them on d1, it's ******ed. However from a wolf standpoint it makes more sense, the more easy wagons you set up the less likely a wolf is one of them.

You seemed to me to be basically trying to put more attention on UTR players, and not on active ones. It looked innocent enough, but it wasn't out of the realm of possibility for an active experianced wolf to make that post to try and divert village attention away from him. I didn't think much of it.

Then 'lo and behold Kesh immediately shows up agreeing with you, and we know Kesh was a wolf. Now, kesh agreed with me several times as well, he seemed to be following around players taking second seat really, but it does increase the chance of you being a wolf trying to influence the village into suspecting UTR players more and active players (IE yourself) less.

Ok, that's a much better explanation. Why didn't you mention it d1 when the beer wagon was gaining steam though? Kesh was tagging behind me well enough on that one. Also, if wolves generally don't interact too much with each other, that would seem by your logic to indicate that I'm not a wolf, yet you still think I am.

Going from "screaming wolf" to "strongest villa" is a very big swing of opinion, especially when your justifications for both were tone reads. Also especially when it would look bad if you kept calling him a wolf when almost the entire village is sure he isn't. I think if you were a villa you'd move him to neutral or a slight villa lean if you were starting to doubt your read. Your massive opinion switch seems fishy, it looks like you're trying to fit in too much.

I don't think you deliberately did it, but it's possible that while writing out what you thought the wolves would do (which is probably right, so it's likely you would do the same thing as a wolf) you just slipped up and forgot you didn't vote last night.

No, I'm not. I had what I thought were good reasons too vote Beer and so I lead a wagon on him, it's just what happened. I find the fact that you constantly try and claim that it wasn't me, when it clearly was, and then use that so say i'm a wolf intresting.

Kesh suggests Beer but doesn't vote him, stark votes him, then you suggest Beer and don't vote him. You even do it with the classic "for now" wolfy mcwolfenstein tell,
actually I said "right now", not "for now." But as to me not instantly voting for brian based off of that post I wanted to see how he reacted before voting. When he reacted in what I thought was a wolfy manner I voted for him. I don't think anybody will say that I wasn't the leader of the beer wagon yesterday, and I keep mentioning it because you seem to think that I was a follower and so I'm a wolf. I wasn't and I'm not, when I voted doesn't matter.

It is true Bitchie/ Iron Tamer, I gather a lot of info in the first few days and then once about 4-5 people are gone then I fire up a bit more. I really think days 1-2 are a crap shoot so dont say too much. But as I said yesterday I missed the whole first day by accident. For the record I have you down as full villa now too.

I don't have anything real strong. But I will say the post that I quoted above seems 100% genuine villager to me. A wolf doesn't call someone out like he did, analyze the posts, and then offer to be lynched the next day if he is wrong on D2. If this were D6 or 7 I'd think differently. I just can't see wolf Brian sacrificing himself this early.

i am starting to think Brian would be a great wagon just because alot of the experiance players are defending him so if he turns up wolf it could break the game wide open and if not it will be easier for us to trust the experianced players and wolf hunt better.

Answered anyway. I'm really AFK for now but I'll say again... lynching Brian today is fail

I've never said that mdom was easy to lynch or always comes off wolfy. Nor did I have any reason to believe that he did, but I can't comment further as it pertains to an ongoing game.

I've said that corsakh always comes off as a wolf, and I said the same about Kesh (albeit posthumously), but I didn't say that about Karak.

I guess about 1/3rd of the players in this game get wolf points bc we've all been calling out the 2/3rds of the UTR players.

I concluded that my read was wrong, and that in light of WER's posts, he was a villager. So I didn't try to do the "villagery" thing and "slightly" change my read on him. What you're suggesting that I should have done is what a wolf would have done so as to not draw attention to himself when he realized he couldn't get WER lynched.

Also, If you think I'm trying to fit in: LOL.

I wouldn't put it past a very good wolf who knows he's in trouble to do this honestly. He could say this, not get lynched because of it, and then claim there are better lynches than him the next day due to NKs.

When I come up villa, you won't learn a thing. Except from the people that are on my wagon.

Mrsbutton feel free to actually vote me and dirty your name up instead of encouraging others and trying to push me.

Lynching for information is terrible, only vote for people you think are wolves, because when you try to justify a mislynch based on "we'll get information" You'll usually not get much.

Then why don't you stick your vote somewhere and either help start that 2nd wagon or solidify my wagon, which only has 4 votes right now. Instead of yapping about how a 2nd wagon won't get started and how inclined you are to join my wagon.
