Day 7: Contingency Plans

[necklessone]

The boathouse/safehouse was a recent addition, but it should keep all those virgins safe for a bit. It was a bit obvious now; the wolves and humans have to know something is up.

Your sacrifice of the Athletes has been accepted.



Today’s power choices:

• Recon - Seer a player. You may not seer any of the players in the boathouse.
• Manipulate - You may move one of your own votes in secret. This move will be reflected in the final total.
• Desperation - These powers will remain the same each day and are once per game. If you are desperate, you may:
  
  • Make a night kill.
  • Swap the archetype of two living players.
  • Lynch the person who gets the second most votes.
  • Make 25% of the players (your choice) immune to maul/lynch the next day.
  • Force the wolves to maul a member of your team instead of their target

The wolves will be extra suspicious of any further attempts to control them. You may not redirect their maul anymore.

[Omega]

Very interesting.

Gotta get Ryvvn today, I think.

[Rictus]

Yeah I agree. Also, that's a lotta wolves!

[Omega]

Did you update the colored voting charts?

[Omega]

Oh no, they think the protection is some sort of endorsement of humanity.

[Rictus]

I updated that PJ, but I didn't get to add yesterday's votes. On my phone.

[Omega]

Okay, I'll do it today. Thanks.

[Omega]

Almost made some references in there to non-public info. OOps.

[Rictus]

For tonight, let's maul a Fool and get the hell out of here.


Fools:
Dferr, Joker, Ryvvn, Meta4, SimpleSimon

[Omega]

If we can get dferr on the lynch, maul Ryvvn and be done with it?

I mean, Ryvvn is smart. And deceptive. I could see this shift to dferr as an olive branch to me since he knows he's high on my suspect list. Hrmm.

[Rictus]

Oh yeah, I don't underestimate Ryvvn.

Right now meta4 is gaining traction. Visigoth is the alternative, but I think (hope!) he's going to be a second place.

Who do you want to maul? Since there are 3 wolves remaining it's not as critical. The basic question is "do you want to try and help the humans or the wolves?"

[Omega]

Oh, if we use a night kill, it has to be in service of getting the last sacrifice, so, dferrantino or Ryvvn? Probably Ryvvn, because if he is, on the off chance a human, we can easily spin that to dferr.

GM: Can we do conditional power usages?

[necklessone]

Yes, you can conditional any powers with targets. You may only conditional based on the lynch.

[Omega]

Then, I propose

if meta4 is lynched then night kill dferrantino

else seer Ryvvn?

[Rictus]

Maybe I'm not understanding, but I think conditional means


Maul Ryvvn -> dferrantino

So if Ryvvn gets lynched, then dferrantino is mauled as a backup.


If we can do more elaborate conditionals, then:
If Meta4 is lynched, then Maul Ryvvn, else seer Ryvvn.

but I don't think that's a valid order.

[necklessone]

No, I'll allow it. The idea is you don't have to choose what you're doing until you see the lynch results, which could mean you want to use a completely different power.

[Omega]

Rictus, my thinking is that Ryvvn is coming over to my line of thinking. We may not have to kill him tonight. Especially if meta4 and dferrantino go down. That gets us to half the fools, and its game over for us. Pop the champagne.

I guess, they both get us to the same place w/r/t the fools, though.

GM, please see the other thread.

[Omega]

I forgot how nice it is to have time to play TWG. What with the multiple tabs and F5ing and chicken scratch notes all over my desk.

[Rictus]

Rictus, my thinking is that Ryvvn is coming over to my line of thinking. We may not have to kill him tonight. Especially if meta4 and dferrantino go down. That gets us to half the fools, and its game over for us. Pop the champagne.

Ryvnn is a fool as well. As long as we kill one of them I'm fine. Personally I think Ryvvn is a wolf. But that's not really relevant to our win condition.

How about this:


If Meta4 is lynched, Maul Ryvvn -> Dferrantino.
Otherwise, Seer Ryvvn.

So if Meta4 is lynched, we kill a Fool and blast off.
If he is saved somehow and we end up lynching a non-Fool (Visigoth), then we lay low and keep on chugging.

[Omega]

I just reread the win condition, we get removed from the game once we eliminate the factions. So, Fuck it!

If Meta4 is lynched, Night Kill Ryvvn

Else, Seer Ryvvn.

[Omega]

I hope there isn't a coordinated snipe at EOD to prevent this ritual from coming to its glorious conclusion.

[Rictus]

I hope there isn't a coordinated snipe at EOD to prevent this ritual from coming to its glorious conclusion.

Yeah I'm worried about the same thing
