Now it looks like I started a band wagon...I'd love to jump off now that he's here, but it looks like in order to have some self preservation I need to stick on him.

In Ardent's case, it seemed like self-preservation to me, which good or bad probably was a good reason. He was tied and didn't want to put his fate at the risk of a tiebreaker. So that move does not jump out at me really badly.
The two that jumped out strongest to me in the bunch was Dubb who started the initial bandwagon for Neon with the second vote for him (but then later bailed when others started voting for him), and Lathum who voted for Neon because someone else switched off of him.
Right now without a whole lot more to go on, I feel pretty ok with St.Cronin if Neon is vouching for him, so that clears 2/24 players. I'm not voting yet, going to wait for more discussion and see what happens, but right now I'm just basing my possible vote on how people behaved.
actualy that wasn't my reason for Neon. My vote for Neon was totaly random and I switched once he revealed his role early on.
The comment about being suspiscous of bandwagoners switching votes was completly seperate from my vote.

Coder
what doesn't make sense about coffee's argument?
Reading his post once again, I might have been reading it wrong the first time.
However, the way I read it was that he made Neon out to be evil (?).
"After Neon fingered Qwik, and eventually was proven to be evil"
Reading it again I'm sure he means that Qwik was evil...
However, he also seems to be diverting votes away from himself and his own action.. he was also very quick to get the voting going without mentioning his own name.. further more, he "had to" post how all he had was a wizard hat and a wizard's robe!? Bla bla ;-)
To be honest, I don't see what the "band wagon" jumpers did that was wrong.. I would have done the same had I not been asleep when Neon revealed Qwik. Why NOT vote out the most obvious choice? That's one less deatheater for the night instead of spreading the uncertainty and possibly kill an innocent wizard..
My vote stands.. Coffee is too anxious to prove other people's actions wrong rather than defend his own.. ;-)

It is standard first day fare. My 1st vote for Neon was a joke. If you would have been around long enough you would realize he has DM'ed about 70% of these games. That is why I said I always wanted to do that and included a smiley. When I voted for him I glanced over the 1st vote that was put on him.
Qwik came in and tried to start a bandwagon against an innocent player. I wasn't willing to give up Neon, who I figured would know more about werewolf than anyone else. Afterall, he has DM'ed all those games and has seen how people on both sides act. That is when I moved my vote off of him. I went out for my anniversary, came back and saw Neon's reveal. Knowing he is a good player I believed him and voted with him. Would you rather me have left my vote on an unknown?
Alan T
01-10-2006, 02:39 PM
I don't have any problems with people who jumped to vote for Qwik either on day 1. It seemed to be the best move to make. If Qwik was on our side, we would have gone after Neon on day 2. Getting a bad guy on one of two days is a decent start.

A large portion of trying to dig out the evil-doers is by looking at voting records. When an easy opportunity to hide your vote comes around, it's a standard-issue wolf tactic to do so. BECAUSE many people hopped the bandwagon to whack Qwik, that's a day of voting history that becomes even more obfuscated. Which benefits the wolves.

I'm willing to give you that. But if you are looking at me you are looking at the wrong guy. Stand fare is usually 1 wolf votes for the wolf, the rest spread them out. I atleast has a reason and explanation for my vote, and the lateness of it. I'd look at some of the people who didn't.

I do agree with this train of thought to an extent, with one caveat - when the bandwagon is as quick as yesterday's was, the death-eaters don't neccesarily have time to get their strategy in order.
That being said, the last people to vote Qwik were
Desnudo
Dubb
Jesse
SnDvls
Lathum
Kwhit
For some reason I have Kwhit's name circled in my notes, but I forget why.

At what point do you consider voting for him hopping on the bandwagon?
When Neon revealed his role and his info about Qwik, it was:
Superman 5
Neon 4
Ardent 2
Qwikshot (and others) 1
Obviously, you needed 4 others to join in to even tie Superman (unless people jumped off him). Im having a problem seeing where you draw the line between people feeling that was the best choice for the villagers to lynch Qwik and hurrying to make it so, vs people piling on to hide in the vote. I understand what you are saying about them wanting to hide in the masses, I just do not know how you pull people out of yesterday's vote on Qwik. It happened so quickly.
It seems to me something a bit easier to watch when it happens over the course of a few hours instead.

if you look at my reason for going after blade you'd understand. It's also a commen setup for the wolves/demons/death eaters ect to set up someone who voted for the person you kill. If lynching an active person gets the game along I guess it happens.
Coffee Warlord
01-10-2006, 03:06 PM
We all know day 1 votes are crapshoots, and pretty much any *shred* of a good reason to lynch someone is jumped on. Neon comes out against Qwik with a bit more than a shred of reason, at which point it's almost a foregone conclusion Qwik is screwed. Any other day it might have been questionable, but on day 1, it's a HELLUVA lot better than the Random Number Generator, the Vote Schmidty Rule, the Die AE Die Rule, or any of the others.
So simply because this WAS A day 1 vote, I consider most anyone after the first couple to be a "bandwagon" vote.
My take anyway.

not by you directly, but by the wolves and by chance. You look at who voted for who was killed last night (happens that I did vote blade and unvoted him) The wolves kill him and the finger goes to someone who voted for him or in this case barkeep too. Then because I switched along with many other people I'm the unlucky one. It's too early for me to say my role, I'm holding out hope that you will realize the error in your vote.

On the other hand, wolves don't properly utilize who and whom. As bolded above.
These posts were just kidding, BTW. I'm not sure who to go for at this point. I'm pretty sure that at least one of the late people on the Qwik boat are evil.

I need to head from work to pick up my car from the shop, so probably will be gone a few hours. Right now in my mind, the people I am most likely to vote for are one of these:
Lathum, Dubb, Coffee Warlord, SnDvls, king and jeeber. I'll hold off for a bit though to see what discussion happens between now and later. Most of my opinions is based solely on one day of voting, which isnt much. Superman's responses to people voting for him made me a little curious as well however. Not the response I would expect from someone who was trying to work as part of the team.
Other food for thought, with everyone focused on Superman primarily because he didnt vote yesterday, not many have mentioned WVUFan or Pass who neither voted yesterday nor showed up so far today in the discussion.
Also I see the subject says deadline is 12pm (which would be noon), Is that supposed to be 12 midnight instead?
See you all in a few hours.

I agree with coffee, day one is always a crap shoot.
And if you got back on before the deadline to see the results and saw the hour old seer reveal and changed your vote it makes you a bad guy. The reveal was good b/c we got a deatheater, but it came so late in the day that it makes it the votes less likely to mean anything. I'm sure Desnudo and Jesse were in the same boat I was, out for the day after saying their peace and then back at the deadline. The reveal came as a shock and we all quickly changed it.
If Neon's reveal came at 4:00, then the case becomes much better against the deadline switchers. Again, I'm not vouching for Desnudo or Jesse, I just know I'm not a death eater, and assume with the late reveal they stumbled into the same situation I did.

Once again, I am not worried about you voting for Blade without a good reason. I am worried that you SAID you had a good reason for voting for Blade, when you didn't (and, as you point out, few people had good reasons), and now you are changing your tune.
show me what post I SAID I had a good reason? I said go look at why that is all. Prove where I "SAID" that. I think you are trying to read into something that isn't there.

I tend to agree with the idea that one of the late switches was a wolf, but I haven't seen a really solid reason to think that it's SnDvls (not saying it couldn't be, I just haven't seen a reason that resonates with me).

And if you got back on before the deadline to see the results and saw the hour old seer reveal and changed your vote it makes you a bad guy. The reveal was good b/c we got a deatheater, but it came so late in the day that it makes it the votes less likely to mean anything. I'm sure Desnudo and Jesse were in the same boat I was, out for the day after saying their peace and then back at the deadline. The reveal came as a shock and we all quickly changed it.
If Neon's reveal came at 4:00, then the case becomes much better against the deadline switchers. Again, I'm not vouching for Desnudo or Jesse, I just know I'm not a death eater, and assume with the late reveal they stumbled into the same situation I did.
I'm on the West Coast. My deal went something like this:
1. Get home from work around 6ish PST
2. Log-in and start reading the thread to catch up
3. See Neon's reveal
4. Realize I have about five minutes to post my final vote
5. Scroll through the last two pages of posts. At that point I'd pretty much picked up that Quick likely had enough votes, but I figured, might as well make sure.
6. Vote for Quick
I know full well from past games that voting late, even for a guilty party, casts you in a suspicious light. If I'd wished to remain unnoticed, I would have let my vote stand.
Edit: right now I'm leaning towards WVUFan, because he hasn't posted at all and I don't feel that anyone really jumps out. I have some suspicions, but nothing concrete.

I thought the same thing going into today. I don't have a feeling for any particular person, but I feel fairly certain that more than one DE jumped on the bandwagon to confuse us later in the game when we look at voting patterns.I agree with the expectation that DEs jumped on the bandwagon, but disagree that it will confuse us later in the game -- by now, we're familiar enough with these types of bandwagons that we will expect a mix of folk in the anti-Qwikshot side and basically count the vote as a throw-away as far as analysis is concerned.

IT WAS DAY 1!!! did anyone have a good reason before Neon came out? The Death Eaters were the only ones with anything like a good reason -- any vote for a villager brings them closer to victory. :)
There is way too much angst and heavy thinking about day 1. There's practically nothing to learn from the vote, IMO. We're sort of back to square one, except that we believe we can trust Neon and we believe we can trust st. cronin.

Shifting votes to Qwik yesterday really does not tell us much about someone. With Qwick getting fingered as a DE, obviously enough people have to vote for him to get a lynch. Others want to vote for the lynchee to look supportive or hide and others don't change for the same reasons. What has WVU given you as reason to take the heat off him, yet.

It just seems a little too pat for me. Maybe it's nothing, but it seems like those two made a dual effort to deflect attention onto the Qwik vote switchers. My question would be, since everyone knows that the band wagoning draws attention to your name, why would you do it if you were evil?

Yes. Let's look at the scenarios:
1. Sun Devils is telling the truth, he lives and Neon lives another day. If I were Neon, I wouldn't waste the view on SD as being alive would be good enough for now.
2. Sun Devils is telling the truth, he dies and Neon dies. Back to square one except that everyone who voted for SD is now under suspicion.
3. Sun Devils is lying, he lives and Neon dies. SD is then lynched tomorrow.
3. Sun Devils is lying, he dies and Neon dies. Suspicion on those who didn't vote for SD.
So lynching him would provide some insight, but having Neon alive another day (and possibly two if another bodyguard exists) would also provide insight.

Hmmm.. this to me is alot like yesterday. I have very little to go on, and would be happy for a 1 for 1 trade for another DE kill. So thinking about our options here:
1) Sndvls is lying, and is a DE, and we have no other bodyguards. They likely will kill Neon, regardless of what we choose.
2) Sndvls is lying and is a DE, and we do have another bodyguard (who should be protecting Neon tonight), they try to kill Neon, fail, he scans Sndvls and we just lynch him tommorrow.
3) Sndvls is telling the truth, and we manage to not kill an innocent villager here, and keep Neon around at least one more day.
I guess I think if Sndvls is lying, they will kill Neon anyways, and it will at least be proof to us that Sndvls lied and we should lynch him next. I do not see any great reason for him to lie this early in the game. They would be way behind to lose two DE in 3 days in this large of a field.
That said, Sndvls was one of the people on my suspect list, but right now I think we should give him the night to prove if he is telling the truth. Any other bodyguards we have out there should still protect Neon as well. Neon can scan sndvls for us and let us know in the morning for sure if he is good or not.
Other things to look at, right now I count the vote as:
Sndvls 8
wvufan 4
coffee warlord 3
Sndvls and coffee warlord were both on my odd activity list, and wvufan was on my laying low/hiding out list. Perhaps one thing we should work for is what Blade suggested last time. he seemed to hint that we would be able to clear more villagers by use of tiebreakers. If we arent 100% sure on someone, we could at least form a tie that helps us rule out people too.
For now, I think my vote will be:
VOTE Coffee Warlord

He says he's got some goofy item, if I recall correctly. If I read it right, and I'll admit right now I'm moderately confused, it sounds like it emulates a bodyguard for 1 night.
from my PM it says I have the Anti-Disapparation Charm that I must chant. and that it is a one time use for me. I guess I read the word charm as an object, but I guess you could make it out to be using charm as in spell. I was more thing an object to go with the other thing I knew the reparo thing.

you are not. What was shady? you chose me for being late on the qwick bandwagon and now stated this one on me. I trust you St. C. partly from the scan that Neon did on you. I would think if you were hiding anything he would have picked it up in his scan blocking it or not and he will find the same with me. All I'm asking for is a chance to prove myself tonight by not lynching me.

I'll I really only want to say that I used to work for someone in the minsitry of magic. I don't want to give out my whole role as I'm not up on HP and if I say it all it might tip off the death eaters as to who else is out there.
All right. I'm not up on HP either. You've got to give us something to go on. I'm not sure on how revealing your role would do anything more than clear you. So the bad guys figure out that there's more roles, who cares? They probably have more roles that we don't know about if that's the case. I'm on your side at this point, but you've got to throw out something other than non-specifics.

I didn't occur to me how they would get to someone to kill him until I read about Sndvls charm.. then it hit me that the most likely way to "infiltrate" a wizard's house without raising an alarm would be to apparate into it.. hence, the anti-disapparation charm would be a means of protecting oneself (or the house you're at).

Here's the kicker though.
As is his usual habit, goblet after goblet of mulled mead is consumed by your Ministry Advisor, and <b>shortly after he finishes explaining that thanks to the charm he cast over the town this afternoon, no one can apparate or disapparate within the village borders any longer</b>, he changes the subject.

The only reason I feel he's legit is because he seems to have no real HP-knowledge, thus he wouldn't make up having the item. Had he been a confessed HP-reader he could have made up having the charm and tried to trick us all.
We've got nothing to lose giving Sndvls the benefit of the doubt for one night if it can save Neon, so therefore Coffee's relentless attempts at lynching Sndvls is only making himself look more suspicous in my mind.

But I, as I stated before, have no special role, and unless I am mistaken, have no ability to gain any special role. I'm as vanilla as they come, which is why I'm playing a lot looser than I normally do. We don't lose much of anything if I bite it, so I'm going to be the loudmouth and cast my suspicions around.
Frankly, at this point, I want to see SnDvls lynched. Settle it right now. If he's a villager, we look at who pushed for him (and I'm fully aware that I'm included on that, but there have been others today who have pushed on him as well). If he's not, well, one more down.

St. Cronin just laid a vote on him for a somewhat random reason of being in the pile on. Then of course another pile on occurred, which does not help any more than it did yesterday.
Cronin brought up the point of the DEs skipping Neon tonight and when Neon scans Sndvl, Sun could be using a skill to mask himself, thus looking clean for the rest of the game.

SnDvls has been very defensive, and I question his role reveal, considering, in my mind, it contradicts the opening post of the game (note the quote I posted up above).

Sndvls was on my short list of people who I thought had curious voting the day before, but I had a list of 6-7 people. I didnt vote for him because of the huge bandwagon. I think in the end I agree that having a tie might not be bad to clear another villager possibly with a tie break. However I still stated before why i dont think its a bad thing to give sndvls one more day.

I think the other effect of the item which is supposed to stop DEs from entering a defended area may make the item legitimate. Not sure though. I'm not saying Sun is a DE or not, it just would help to not hang him so soon when there is more to learn. If we tie WVU and Sun, then WVU will give us some reasons why he should not get lynched. Then of course there are tie breakers, which could very well clear another villager.

I will say this. In this game we have so many people, it might be best to trust people early we normally wouldn't. If Sun had just sat there my vote would have sat on him as well. I said I had a feeling he was being defensive b/c he had a big role. I think in this situation the risk outweights the reward, and I'd hate for Sun to be legit and lose the tie break.

We've had bandwagons on Sun b/c of his late vote yesterday, but most feel with the lateness of Neon's reveal that yesterday's vote didn't mean anything. However the votes got more intense when Sun came out very defensive and did a poor job defending himself.
Then we went for the silent WVU, he came on and said nothing except he wants to be attacked by the death eaters instead of being lynched.
Sun revealed that he can protect the seer(neon) for 1 more day even thought the bodygaurd(barkeep) died last night. He can do this as a one time act, but requests that the seer view him tonight as a favor.
People wanting to give him a chance to prove it have been moving off to the other vote leader WVU since there really isn't any other option at this point.

I think that even Day 2 is very early to be sure that someone is a Death Eater, so what everyone is doing is just guessing. Given that, without giving away roles or any such thing I did last game, I can only say I am not a Death Eater. By killing me, you're eliminating a potentially useful person later in the game. As for doing or saying something that will clear me, I can't do that.
My vote for SunDvl isn't based on some intuition that he's evil, it's simply to save myself, so, without giving away my role (which I will not do), I'm asking for y'all to trust me. You did last game, and I was not the bad guy. Trust me this time.

I've read everything. So, hear me out.
saldana's story was that noone could Disapparate or Apparate to leave or enter the town, so SnDvls' story still holds ground.
I have one BIG problem with SnDvls' story. He says he owns an Anti-Disapparation charm... and is going to protect me... HOW, EXACTLY?
There are two stages in Apparation... to disapparate (disappear) from a given location, and then to apparate (appear) at any given location.
An anti-disapparation charm would disable a wizard's ability to disapparate, not his ability to to apparate.
Captured Death Eathers are cast Anti-Disapparation charms to prevent them from disapparating.
Private houses in the Wizarding world are protected by Anti-Apparation charms, charms, charms that prevent someone from appearing inside the house.
An anti-disapparation charm only prevents someone from disappearing, which is basically useless in trying to defend me.
I call bullshit, Sndvls... if I'm wrong, then we're probably screwed. :)

B/C my gut is telling me Sun is bad and this is a ploy, but I'd rather vote WVU and force a tie. If no one moves to tie this back up, I'm going to go with my gut and put my vote back on Sun.

I think in a game this big and with what appears to be a lot of roles, it is more important to try and validate someone to trust rather than go for a blind lynch. At this point Sun is offering something to test. At this point I'm willing to go that route.

Im about to head to bed, but with this vote, I likely will vote for Pass tommorrow.
This seems strange in one vote he eliminates the chance of us validating sndvl's story or vallidating another villager through a tie. I guess I'll see what happens with the lynch and night actions, but right now this seems very suspicious to me, especially of someone who has been laying low.

I don't have either of them that I feel in my heart is guilty where I would think the Duke should vote for one of them, I think mostly I wanted the chance for us to clear some people and expand our circle of trust, which seems that is falling from us fast with the way people are voting now. Im hoping we end back up in a tie somehow at least.

Would you want the Duke to change the vote and if so, to who?
Here is my take. My gut says Sun is bad. But, he is in a situation, if he is a death eater, where they have little to gain from the ploy he pulled(seriously, look at the numbers). If it works they would have to take their chances with Neon for another day. And if I were a wolf I would much rather have a dead buddy than a live seer.
In a perfect world, Sun is given a chance to prove himself. Also, he asked for a scan, he wants a chance to prove himself. On day 2 it is a situation where it may be a good place to use your power to save him, BUT ONLY IF YOU ARE CONFIDENT IN HIM. Its early in the game, and we still have a massive number of people.
At worst we kill Sun tomorrow and gain valuable info from todays vote. At best, our seer could get several more views depending on if another bodygaurd is around. But in the end it is your choice. And I have no clue who to switch the vote to, but Pass and Superman would have to be the top 2 choices at this point.

I'm suspicious of Pass for coming in and breaking the tie. He is pretty high on my list as well. Not sure about Superman, I'm nuetral there. I don't have any assurances on Sun, he could be good and he could be bad. I just have not figured out if letting him live another day will assure a clearing or not. If he has the ability to sheild his true nature from Neon, then we get nothing and Sun has a huge smoke screen.

I don't understand entirely how you feel that from my switch unless you think I'm a DE (which might be what you are alluding to). I can assure you that I am not (which is the exact same thing every one else will tell you too I realize).
My reasoning over the last 2+ pages has stayed the same I feel the entire time though.
The two things I wanted to try to accomplish tonight was:
1) a tie to clear one villager through some tiebreaker role
2) giving sndvls an extra night to "prove" himself. I honestly feel that it is really really early for the DE to pull a move where they will be down 2 DEs in 2 days. With this size game, that would give us a huge advantage over them. Worst case scenerio in my mind was sndvls was lying, we lose you and lynch him tommorrow. Best case in my mind is that he is telling the truth, and we manage to keep you around a little longer.
Either way, my fear is that you might be a huge target for them tonight.
If this doesn't address your concerns about my voting, I would be happy to try to explain further.
Man, Alan, you're screwed either way. :)
I don't know either way at this point. I want to trust both people. Sndvls gave us a role reveal and a storyline or something, and wvu is just asking us to trust him. Neon is throwing the flag on sndvls.
Man, I don't know.

Pushing for a tie, when there is enough evidence to show that Sun is lying is a stupid move from a Wizard and a good move for a Death Eater.
Granted I may be wrong in my analysis, but the moment Sun said Anti-Diapparation charms to help protect me, alarms rang off in my head.
All I'm saying is if Sun is killed today and is shown to be a DE, I want your head on the chopping block next.

I would like to see a tie and observe another wizard break the tie to clear one more person. Whether that gives sun another day or not is less important. Is there anyone else that can claim a tie breaker that would like to clear themselves?

Maybe its my lack of understanding about the Harry Potter world here, but we have proof he is lying? I honestly have no idea what these charms are or do other than what was described. As you and St.Cronin are in my mind the only two "cleared" people here, you obviously carry alot of weight in these discussions and I think alot of people are interested in your thoughts (including me).
I don't think I am alone in what I have been saying though, I think alot of people have been trying to push for a tie (including one of our dead villagers).
To me the more people we can clear early on, the better for us to hunt down those who we can't.
