The Wolf Game

DastardlyOldMan

Woohoo - knock 'em dead (well, if you're a wolf, that is).

DastardlyOldMan

Absolutely, go for it.

DastardlyOldMan

21 May sounds just fine to me; I'd suggest we continue with the "if all votes aren't in by 24 hours, extend by 24 hours" mechanic that we've been using a bit of late, to keep WoGs down. I'm definitely in, will make sure I'm near civilization around that time.

DastardlyOldMan

Think that I found the original Village. There were *not* a lot of Villagers (but there was a winery across the street). https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/3pTQJsdSlclv885zDaXlD7j12MI_dsz1d4bdlhrj8SnvVB6bPiTC-4QAKX14qqHlEsaJOV6w0VkzFUossipdmQVG72WSa6oR6PN_Hvop1hEPYX3uRoi9lNvC2vKuFCbBf4mmkEklfg=w2400

A game starting mid June wouldn't be possible either, perhaps?

I'm traveling for a couple of years or thereabouts.

DastardlyOldMan

Not here - no way that I have the time to commit to a game of that caliber, and I'm going to be in and out of wifi range quite a bit.

DastardlyOldMan

On the one hand, I'm a little jealous - just because you're in the middle of it all doing what (I highly suspect) you love, and orchestrating the whole madness to bend to your whim (or maybe having your whim bent around the madness a touch). On the other hand, I'm getting ready to go hike up around ...

DastardlyOldMan

This gets tricky, because we've gotten what looks like probably the ~first two wolves, so looking back to Day 3 or so isn't going to do us much good. I kind of see what rekard is saying about Admetus, but the timing of it doesn't sync for me - in order for Admetus to be a wolf, he'd have to have bee...

DastardlyOldMan

No - just getting into the mindset of "people who would target FCM" a bit, and since she was targeted at Level 1, we have some of that info available.

DastardlyOldMan

I'll agree with Aldax ; as I mentioned earlier, he'd be one of my main conversion targets if I were converted. I'm also considering who would've converted FCM first - both JRS and Ryvvn are out of the game, so it's not pointing to them. In the first iteration of this game, who was the driver for mau...

DastardlyOldMan

I actually agree with FCM on this one - LoL is the right time for any info we can get, even though a seer in a conversion game is less useful. Um Dom? Scroll up. FCM, unless I'm wildly misreading things. Of course, if I'm not misreading it, and you two are chatting elsewhere, I might have to consid...

DastardlyOldMan

#Vote for: Aldax

would be my choice of conversion at this point, if this is conversion. Quietly active.

DastardlyOldMan

Bah, humbug.

#Vote for: Clearasday

, then - since he's been a bit in absentia.

DastardlyOldMan

OK - the proper response during that game was to

#Vote for: SHODAN - Invalid Vote

. Let's see if that doesn't help us along. Otherwise, I think Ryvvn might have had the right idea

DastardlyOldMan

No escape from reality.

I'm still voting for

#Vote for: 7-Zark-7

; IIRC, he was the original creator of SHODAN.

DastardlyOldMan

#Vote for: 7-Zark-7

DastardlyOldMan

Ha! So these are all lazy vig shots, in that the targets are all still alive, eh?

Well, if we're going to be lazy about it, I can do that. We should totally lynch a wolf.

#Vote for: A Wolf

DastardlyOldMan

This power struggle is all well and good, but given the chance, I don't see how we can't

#Vote for: Omega

DastardlyOldMan

I feel like I've got nothing, here. The Day 3 voting still makes me wonky, and the Day 4 voting isn't much better (especially with the wolf not voting). I suspect that we've been giving the wolves little choice in the matter - that's the only way I can explain the lack of self-defense voting that we...

DastardlyOldMan

Guh - no discussion in my overnight, eh? I'm really tempted to go back to Visigoth today, but I don't have a great read anywhere. Aldax is feeling a little iffy to me - he waited until sphenodont posted before voting, and looks like he was setting up to throw some shade my way, but he came out, tone...

DastardlyOldMan

Just glad everything's relatively OK, Zark, and happy to have you back (even on a limited basis) to entertain us. Now - dance for us.

DastardlyOldMan

Tally looks something like: spheno - 5 - jrs3, RaveBomb, Ryvvn, Visigoth, Aldax Visigoth - 2 - DOM, rekard DOM - 1 - sphenodont And alive-ish players, I think: DastardlyOldMan Ryvvn Aldax Visigoth rekard2 RaveBomb Clearly (at least, to me, because I know I'm human), there's at least one wolf on sphe...

DastardlyOldMan

Yeah, like i said, it's maybe a soft clear, and the whole meta argument is dicey as usual. Reaching for what I can get with only a day and a ~half of voting record.

DastardlyOldMan

Wolves are getting crazy lucky with the maul choices. If Admetus left a tell, the only thing I can see is maybe a soft clear of RaveBomb. Going into metaland a bit (I do still have that title, don't I?), we know the wolves logged in and posted a maul yesterday: dferrantino voted for Visigoth sphenod...

DastardlyOldMan

I'll add on to

#Vote for: dferrantino

(of the four votees available). The FCM maul might point to Ryvvn, or it might be wanting us to point to Ryvvn.

(The left-to-vote list still shows the flipped tally.)

DastardlyOldMan

It's not necessarily hand-wavy; last person to vote for a singleton, who themselves is not going to create a singleton. Ozymandias used to do it all the time; with a fresh Day 1 (not worried about ~last-game type concerns), it's nice to be able to take that approach.

DastardlyOldMan

Two items of note: A) Six singletons with 12 players is bad, mmmkay? B) Anyone else note the wording on the role PMS? While you are a member of the crew, for parity purposes, you count as a Passenger. That could be taken two ways: Although you are a member of the crew, you're not really a wolf; As l...

DastardlyOldMan

Something's wrong on this ship! Let's all gang up on someone and bring them to the bridge! Where the wrong things are going on! It's not too late to make it a party! I say we bring both Carrot Top and Jrsthethird. Let's see who else is going: This. Anyone who did not immediately note "Carrot T...

DastardlyOldMan

I've waited so long to climb on board of Ozymandias . . . and double-occupancy? Hello!

OK - now that I'm fully disturbed, I'm going to try to play this one; I'll be relatively static for a week or two (Brisbane, here I come).

DastardlyOldMan

"Vanilla" - nice try, Omega

DastardlyOldMan

I think I have to consider myself kind of half-active at this point, given the traveling. I don't always have reliable wi-fi (I'm off to the wilderness again in a couple of days). I'm definitely still visiting regularly, but I don't know that I'll be actively playing for a bit, and most likely not G...

DastardlyOldMan

I'm back in the land of consistent wi-fi, and I've got a home base for a couple of weeks - so count me in, please.

DastardlyOldMan

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, everyone (it's sooo weird having warm weather for the holiday season - Xmas is the beginning of Summer in the Upside Down).

DastardlyOldMan

One does not simply walk into Mordor. There's a shuttle bus from Taupo. Tongariro Crossing - this one was a tough climb, and by the end, I was dragging quite a bit. We couldn't climb Mt. Doom itself (Ngauruhoe) - it's considered tapu , or sacred ground now (you used to be able to go to the summit), ...

DastardlyOldMan

Ryvvn - if you'd rather drop me GM access, since you're still in-game, I can try to finish things off, depending on how much note-taking Zark left us. I'm way off timezone, but I can at least roll the days along.

DastardlyOldMan

Happy Thanksgiving to all you people living in the past - Friday afternoon here :) The future is just lovely. Was a lovely, Thursday here in SoCal. Where are you at these days, DOM? Just got in to Rotorua, NZ yesterday (after Auckland, Paihia, and Whitianga). Redwood forest, geysers & geotherma...

Happy Thanksgiving to all you people living in the past - Friday afternoon here

The future is just lovely.

DastardlyOldMan

The word is "wolfy" (but "anxious" or "anticipating" might cover it as well) - have fun - picking out spots and house hunting can be a real treat, especially when you're just mingling and not necessarily under pressure to buy and such.

DastardlyOldMan

Available for sacrifice here, and add me to the dead, unless you want to hold me back as a substitute paramour. Aukland! How goes the container ship? (Figured I'd reply in the F5 rather than the signup thread): Container ship was good - quiet, peaceful, and just gorgeous - surrounded by the most pe...

DastardlyOldMan

About three hours until I'm offline for the next ~25 days. See you on the other side - try not to eat the entire village while I'm gone.

DastardlyOldMan

One more week!

DastardlyOldMan

Keep me in quarantine for a couple of days in case you need a replacement, but after that, go ahead and pop me out of the airlock and into the dead thread, if ya please.

DastardlyOldMan

I'd better duck out on this one - I'm on the road now, and by the end of this one, I'll probably be on a boat -- and offline (the horror!)

DastardlyOldMan

It wasn't a matter of clearing meta4, necessarily - I just needed to specifically call out my intent to shoot *someone*, and convince people that I was going to pull the trigger. If that person was a wolf, then game over. If that person was human, then they needed to shoot the other player in order ...

DastardlyOldMan

Bah - I got close, but something off in the subfora; everyone has access to human and dead thread, but not wolf (and then I removed my GM permissions to verify, so I can't correct that).

DastardlyOldMan

#Vote for: Fairy Catmother

My desired intent here is to shoot FCM, which means Meta4 shoots me.

DastardlyOldMan

Started Pandemic Legacy yesterday, and time disappeared under mysterious circumstances. I'll give it some time for the west coast to wake up, but if you're not a wolf, the best way to prove it is to take the shot. Otherwise, I'm shooting you, FCM.

DastardlyOldMan

rekard already outlined very good reasons why Meta4 wouldn't be a wolf. Since I know I'm human, that means I shoot FCM, Meta4 shoots me, and Meta4 is last man standing for a human win. I'll most likely take the shot tomorrow ~early afternoon, though, to see what everyone else has to say - Meta4's sh...
