lupusintabula - Day 5

Link:15262 Sat Jan 23 00:21:49 2010

A lone Werewolf howled mournfully last night, rage mingled with sorrow. The Village gathers in the square, but the Witch is no longer among you. You easily find the cottage of [info]kraydon. Her headless body is crumpled in the corner. Her head is mounted to the wall and stuffed with her own dried herbs. This is by far the strangest Werewolf attack you have seen thus far.

Summary: [info]kraydon the WITCH is DEAD.

Because the AFFLICTED wasn't activated until Night3, any comments prior to Day4 can be ignored - they both thought that they were plain simple villagers.

Remeber that at this point, as far as daedalus was concerned, the follow characters and roles had been identified:
[info]kraydon as WITCH
[info]flipperchaz as HUNTER
[info]hungryandhollow as BODYGUARD (and unattackable Lover)
[info]pianorain as [info]NADER
[info]the1mouse as MARTYR
[info]herufeanor as VILLAGER
[info]evilben as VILLAGER
[info]princeofwands as CUPID
[info]gnatdbug as fellow WOLF
[info]stride as fellow WOLF
[info]amphitrite27 as HAMSTER (that failed attack on night2)

Leaving the following players and roles:
[info]pergatorigirl, [info]parzanese, [info]perkyevil, [info]girlpurple, [info]gpeefalt
and villager, afflicted, seer, and two masons.

Of the living characters, the lone remaining wolf stands to directly gain only from a kill of the bodyguard, afflicted, or the seer. However, letting the seer live for a while in hopes of getting rid of the hamster is a useful gamble. And since our remaining wolf was one of the lovers, killing the lover Bodyguard was literally a suicide move.

Killing a mason wasn't at this point any more useful than any other villager (the Cupid, Witch, or the ramaining plain Villager). There was no more credability to gain or lose by getting one mason and not the other. Incidentally, there was that late in the game no good reason for either of the MASONS to claim to be a plain villager - especialy in the face of possibly getting lynched. (I've assumed for a while that [info]parzanese was either the SEER or a MASON because he's appeared to have a level of certainty that implied more facts than he could have as a plain vilager. But I don't think this is a required assumption...)

Of 5 candidates that might be the AFFLICTED, only one had come out and claimed to be "just a plain old villagear"... better odds aiming for one of the 2 "plain villagers" (and maybe accidentally getting the seer) than going for the 1 in 5 blind pick.

Add to that consideration of action just from the last round: all of [info]girlpurple's asking about the timing of activation seems equally suspiscious as rules clarification for her role or feigning ignorance to throw us off scent. [info]gpeefalt's lack of action here counts pretty much as neutral.

Why is it more likely that I'm the afflicted? As far as I can tell [info]gpeefalt has just as much a chance of being the wolf and has also claimed to be a "plain old villager." The only thing that seems to lean this in my direction is that [info]parzanese has been trying to (unwarrantedly) lynch me for days.

well you know, if I keep trying, I gotta succeed at some point . . .

basically, you're more likely to be the afflicted because you were the only one who said you were a plain old villager when daedalus (that wolf, i spit on his grave) was around . . . [info]gpeefalt didn't say this and thus had a better chance of being the seer or a mason then you did . . .

oh and thanks for not eating me last night . . . I appreciate it . . .

Ahhh. but on Day3 you claimed to be a "plain old villager" (something [info]gpeefalt had not yet done) just before the AFFLICTED was attacked and activated.

Either of you might have been the SEER, but it was more likely that he was one of the still unidentified MASONS.

There's not much to sway the vote between you two. You're nearly equally suspect, but with very little to go on, it doesn't that sway happens with whatever little there is.

If I was the afflicted, it would have made much more sense for me to have killed you or princeorwands last night because you have both been trying to convince the others to off me.

Look at who did get killed last night -- [info]kraydon -- the ONLY person who voted against [info]gpeefalt yesterday. Why would I have killed her? She was one of the few players who hadn't been gunning for me.

Indeed, let's look at what little there is...

If I am the afflicted, why would I have chosen to kill [info]kraydon last night? She's the only one who voted for [info]gpeefalt yesterday and one of the few remaining players who hasn't voted against me.

The most logical target would have been either you or [info]parzanese. You've both been very clear that I am high on your list of suspects and have both incited the others to lynch me before.

You killed her because she was the only person to vote for [info]gpeefalt yesterday.

Last night's kill didn't matter at all as long as it wasn't the HUNTER:[info]flipperchaz or the remaining VILLAGER:([info]gpeefalt or [info]girlpurple). Killing the hunter risked getting killed in his dramabomb retaliation. Killing the remaining suspect villager just confirms the sole remaining suspect as the certain wolf.

Of the remaining four of us targets, who could [info]gpeefalt kill that might case suspicion on you? Who could you kill to cast suspicion on him? (Especially considering that both [info]parzanese and I spoke out strongly against you yesterday as the AFFLICTED?) It's a good choice for him in getting framed, but not a good choice as survival instinct. Since he's already demonstrated hasty retaliation (against me in day3) and [info]kraydon was the only person to vote against him yesterday.

However, I imagine that a scared, doomed, nasty wolf would feel more hostile toward either [info]parzanese (the mastermind hero of the town!) followed closely by me who has been half a step behind, but quick to support his view the entire game!

However, if I were a calm strategic thinking wolf, I might have killed [info]perkyevil (sorry hon, nothing personal!) as the only remaining entirely neutral candidate remaining. That choice might have left us villagers wondering today. But then, at this point, even that tactic would be turned and argued against you as well.

If we've truly got the wrong person here, then I'm terribly sorry -- but we were all going to hell already anyway - why not get there early for the good seats?

Waiting more than a minute between those two posts would have improved the effect. Your timing needs work, Mr. Mayor.

Just buttering you up (STS) before the end of the game. In the unfortunate event that we are lynching the wrong person today and that [info]girlpurple isn't the afflicted-turned-wolf, I'd like to do what I can to be second on the list of remaining villagers to get eaten in retaliation.

How's that old line go about not having to be faster than the wolf....
