Andy said he'd post more specifics on it today.

But from what I can gather, if their are wolves in it, their chances of success are decreased, and if there are vikings in it their chance of success is increased.

trying to wrap my head around best strategy for the mansion/tavern but im not sure, i think it would be very wise to try to keep nothing but villas in either spot to potentially cost the wolves 3 nk's or force them into outing themselves. people seem to be against it but i really don't see how not admitting people for the first couple of days (or at least very selective admittance) is that bad.

This is helpful.

Other than fighting wolves, what is the goal? Save the king? I'm assuming the the king is a villager, right? Also, WHY would we want to accept an invitation to go into the tavern or wherever? It kinda smacks of going into the portal, if you know what I mean.

I have more questions than answers at this point. I do like the game as it seems rife with puzzles (I like puzzles).

Jebus christ....

I won't be around from 12 and around 4 hours a head.
To be frank, some of you guys should spend some time with the rules, or at least just listen to me.

Could people please try and just - think about what properties the the Mansion/Tavern has and what the can offer in different circumstances.

TomVeil and Telco should interact with people asap.

It seems so simple in my head.

I'll explain it in a couple of days, if I find it necessary or you do.

i used to have solid OR reading skills, and I would have said villager based on very limited posts today.

thats fine
like i said im still not sure at all how to use the tavern/mansion, the only thing thats really making sense to me is that people inside them are less likely to be killed and a wolf is required for anyone to be killed at all

there's an entirely opposite strat too, i suppose, but right now i'd just like to hear other peoples opinions

Duck, I'm happy to follow your lead. I may be trying to complicate things here, so maybe that's why I'm confused.

This post is strange. Has rebonk ever posted 75 times in a single day? I don't think of him as that kind of player. It seems like he's just making this up to naturally convey how confused and villagery he is.

Similarly, it would be optimal to fill each place entirely, then switch up who goes where so we can link the kills together as the game goes on and people start dying. This game almost seems like a puzzle that we need to solve.

The strategy here seems silly, which is probably not very relevant. But the last sentence again looks like something rebonk made up because he knows it's villagery to be trying to solve the game, so he wanted to explicitly say that he was doing that.

dunno about the 2nd post but that first post is fishy as hell, will be good to see just how much posting he does today.

Here's where I'm confused: The spreadsheet has a column that says, "Wolf/Villa". Some of the column says "Wolf", some says "Villa" some says "Wolf/Villa", some says "Yes".

WTF is "Yes"?

I thought so, too, but didn't say anything.

I think I need to re-read bobman. I wolfed with him once (crimeney, who haven't I wolfed with?) but I seem to remember him being utr at first. I might not be remembering right, tho.

Bob, what game was that wolf game?

Is it bad to ask here? I assume if I don't get it maybe someone else doesn't.
