T-I-G CVIII: Wolves of the Galadhrim (Game Thread)

[Coppermirror]

Wow, did you dream of a wolf Shasta, then?

[Loslote]

This might be village victory, then, right?

++Shasta

[Farael]

Not that I NECESSARILY distrust Sally but are we 100% SURE that there were two wolves? A wolf has already pretended to be the Seer... and why hasn't our alleged Seer told us of any other of her dreams?

I counsel caution here... Sally please tell me some more about you

[Rikae]

Whoa, whoa there, hold on people.

First off, calling for reveals is premature. We don't know that the seer dreams are all still alive - if they are, yeah, a seer reveal of three dreams + seer would narrow our unknowns down to three people, but if not, it really would be unwise.

Second, we don't know that there's any kind of ranger at all. "Very strange" suggests there isn't, and something else prevented the wolf kill, quite possibly something we can't count on in the future.

Third, the narration suggests there are three wolves.

Lottie, what the heck are you doing? Sally, you'll have to give us more than that.

[Rikae]

Or rather, the narration suggests there were three wolves, and now are two.

Hmm...

Or perhaps there was a cursed, and that's who the wolves attacked...

Huh. That would be 'strange indeed', so I guess that could be it. That's...not as good.

Either way, the narration said the Agan was going after Galadriel, and if she was right, she'll be back again toNight, and we'd have lost our Seer. Even if that's not a guarantee, I think the risk that the wolves know who the Seer is and that they'll kill her as soon as they can is great enough to justify a reveal, especially since we're far enough in the game that the dreams can be useful - especially since I believe Sally's reveal - she wasn't in any danger of being lynched, and if she lied about Shasta being a wolf, we'll know toMorrow and lynch her accordingly. A fake reveal from Sally at this point in the game doesn't make sense.

Third, the narration suggests there are three wolves.

Oh. I misinterpreted it, then, my bad. Still, even if it was three wolves, we'll be down to just the one wolf after toDay, so that's still not bad.

Are we sure we don't have a cobbler? I really wish i was home to be able to read up on things

If she's honest she can and should tell us everything she knows. In fact, she hasn't even called herself the seer, or Shasta a wolf.

I wonder... let me go check something.

[Rikae]

Just looking at Shasta/Sally interactions. Seems he did suspect her, and the reasons look a little fabricated to me, but he went after Lottie far more strongly.
I could, however, see a wolf-Sally thinking Shasta was the seer. Or perhaps Shasta was the cursed...? Sally could decide to sacrifice him and win our trust long enough to win the game.

This may seem paranoid, but she's expecting people to trust her before she's given us much of anything, and that doesn't sit right with me.

[Coppermirror]

Assuming that Sally's telling the truth and that she dreamed of a Shastawolf, and that as of last Night there may now be a Cursed wolf, I should apologise for failing to vote on Day 2. What happened was that I plain couldn't decide who to vote for, but didn't feel comfortable leaving Agan, who hadn't voted yet, in a place where she could be the one to decide the outcome. So I got a half-baked idea that maybe I would wait to see who Agan voted for and vote the opposing way. But, possibly anticipating that, she placed her vote part way through the final minute before the deadline, and I was too slow.

Single elf seer seeking trusting villagers to help eradicate wolf infestation. I'm a Taurus (but I don't drive one), I like short walks to the cupcake store, and my hobbies include catching wolves and staring quizzically at villagers who don't believe me. My favorite color is wolf blood red, and my favorite food is the humble pie the wolves will be eating at the end of this game. If you respond to my reveal, we'll have a lovely evening ridding ourselves of pesky wolves and doing a victory dance (though this may have to wait until our second date if there is a cursed around). Please respond by voting for the known wolf I've given you toDay.

Hello. I'm back.

Hello. I'm back.

Cheeky believe me, I WANT to trust you! But I'm going to need a bit more than what you've given me. Who else have you dreamed about? Surely now it's not the time to hold back, any known Ordos you can give us will narrow the search for a possible third wolf

[satansaloser2005]

Both of my other dreams are ordinary villagers. Yes, I said are; both of them are still alive. I'd like Nimrodel to reveal first purely so that if one of the innocents has been turned and they lie about their role in an attempt to clear themselves, I'll know they have been changed. It's a slim chance, but, well, this is a trippy game, man.

[Farael]

I'm not sure I follow your logic here. By revealing Shasta you've made it so that the only person with an incentive to fake reveal is him.

Why would a fake lover come out, when you would know better? And why are we all assuming the lover is on our side?

[satansaloser2005]

For those of you who want a bit more, I'm amenable to revealing this now: I dreamt of Shasta Night 1. Observe.

There's my first hint (bolding mine because italicization won't show in quotes).

There's my second.

This was highlighted in the original post purely for the sake of a later remark and also to help point out my other dream result if I was killed in the Night. It was also highlighted because how dare the wolves kill Boro that early in the game.

Here's another tip that I've caught a wolf.

Agan being in trouble at the time makes it a way bigger red flag than it would have been otherwise, but your timing looks incredibly sketch, and I'm an easy bandwagon, which is why I think you picked me.

The red flag comment here was meant to reinforce the highlighted note about Boro above. Also, my apologies to Shasta; I had meant to put "in trouble" in quotes to indicate the debatable nature of Agan's status at the time, but I was sleepy at the time and apparently forgot to add said punctuation. That was unintentionally contradictory of me. Whoops.


x'd with Farael

[Coppermirror]

Whoever Sally dreamed of on Night 2 might have been turned into a wolf later, but since if anyone was wolfified it was on Night 3, there's a possiblity that the innocent Sally dreamed that Night is the only person who could be counted as a known innocent. Might it depend on exactly when Nerwen-moddess gave out the information?

[Kitanna]

I realize I am playing a pretty terrible game and have barely been here and I am sorry, but...

++Shasta

I'm choosing to believe Sally because my dog died today and I am most certainly not in the mood to pick posts apart right now.

I'm really sorry *hugs *

[satansaloser2005]

So I'm thinking Nimrodel should step up now. Yes/yes?

[Coppermirror]

If there's a Nerwen-moddess around, would you consider answering this question? For the purposes of this question, setting aside whether there actually is a cursed villager who became a wolf last Night, if there had been one, and if the Seer had dreamed of that person last Night, would you have told the Seer the updated information about that person, or would you have told them the non-updated information?

[Rikae]

I'm sorry to hear about your dog, Kitanna.

Well, my vote actually doesn't count anymore at this point. What Sally's saying about a cursed-dreamed-ordo false revealing as Nimrodel sounds like utter nonsense, for the record, but so does Shasta's "I show up as a wolf".

Whatever.

++Noam Chomsky

Sally, if you're the seer, please plainly reveal your ordos before the end of the day. If your hints are like the ones about Shasta I wouldn't count on us finding them.

[satansaloser2005]

My ordos, she says. Then again, she's not among them, so I shouldn't be terribly surprised.

I am back and will read and cackle a bit before I reveal my other dreams and go to bed.

[satansaloser2005]

Known roles:
Shasta (wolf)
Copper (ordo)
Farael (ordo)
Sally (seer, duh)

Unknown roles:
Lottie
Rikae
Kitanna

In case anyone cares, the dreams are listed above in order.

Obviously this is a rather difficult question for me to answer. To my way of thinking, this hypothetical Cursed would probably not have assumed wolf status until the Night was over- so would *not* have shown up to the Seer as a wolf last Night.

The above should not be taken as confirming any part of your scenario, however.
