Although that would mean an innocent Lottie, and if she's innocent she needs to stop looking so evil.

Are you going for the safe bets here? No theories about whether Hui was bluffing or double bluffing? Or that I fake revealed so late on purpose because I thought Brin is a wolf? ;)

Could have, and I was aware of it at the time I made it, but I think that's anyone's guess. To be fair, nobody seems to have paid attention to what *I* intended to be my "Seer-hint" (or rather a Seer-probe), but it isn't like anybody besides Lommy (and perhaps the WWs at Night) seems to have analysed my posts. To be fair I'm glad they didn't, it would be a waste overall. But Lommy overlooked some stuff and if it was correct, I understand why the WWs wouldn't bring it up. (I will just leave this here open-ended so that our resident baddies have something to wonder about.)

satansaloser2005 05-11-2020 02:36 PM

Well, this is certainly interesting....

Galadriel55 05-11-2020 02:37 PM

People holding on to votes - I hope they realize it's not just who gets the most votes, but who gets the most votes *first*.

Huinesoron 05-11-2020 02:37 PM

Both people who have voted Lhuna so far have done so solely on the basis that they trust the Cuties. It's rather adorable.

How thrilling if the InnoCuties turn out to be wrong. :Merisu:

10 posts per Day, max 280 characters each, each post can contain a single quote of no more than one sentence (not counted in length limit). Vote can be a separate post, not one of the 10, but most only contain your ++vote.

The setting: a Faithful hideout on Numenor during the height of the Dark Times. Everyone has to be quiet in case Sauron's priests hear.

hS, game theorist? Maybe not.

Why not?

There has been a similar setting, but you could enhance it. That might be fun.

The original setting was my very first game, modded by Mac, but it was unusually the other way around: the "Wolves" were the good guys. It was "The Isle of the Were-Faithful". The former queen Tar-Míriel was the Cobbler.

Alternative setting: you are the Druedain during the Great War, living on different hills and communicating with drums using Morse code. While Morse code can be used to communicate even quicker than typing, it has the benefit of people having to take turns to speak rather than massive cross-post rambles.

Huinesoron 05-11-2020 02:51 PM

10 minutes to go, 3 left to vote (Shasta, Boro, Brinn), and it's Lhuna or Eonwe...

Legate of Amon Lanc 05-11-2020 02:52 PM

And looks like it may be Lhuna. If yes, we're going to see very soon whether we were right, or what...

And it looks like various Living can't count; they're still talking about making it interesting when it's already been decided.

Yeah? Watch me write a massive post of usual size, all in Morse code...

Oh, I think I read that one! I enjoyed it. :) Werewolf is fun to read afterwards (though gets tricky when there's multiple threads.)

I am surprised how easily the living are swayed. I was not super optimistic about our influence on them.

With great power comes great responsibility. :eek:

Also, if we get it wrong, which is absolutely possible, if not likely, regardless of what these two taunting pain-in-the-necks in this thread may or may not imply, I worry slightly that our influence will diminish toMorrow.

Good times :)

I spent a fair amount of times digging through HoME and whatnot to find quotes and snippets to turn into narrations. Great fun!

What was it that people kept repeating on Day 1? People who wait for the QT vote and then make decisions that are guided by it, without a dead Seer, are subject to suspicion?No, it can't be that.


Honestly, they are analyzing the vote of a collection of un-Seer innocents more than they analyzed the vote likely cast by a known wolf. :rolleyes:
