Thanks for a good game Johho - It was a blast again. Too bad I got suckered by Randy... *shrug*
My perspective was pretty annoying. I hit Enkh as an apprentice night 0, but since then it was villagers galore. At the end of the day Enkh died, Randy contacted him and gave him his scan list. At that point, there was 3 possibilities. 1: Randy was fishing in which case I might be dead. 2: Randy was bad in which case I would die and 3: Randy was indeed the priest and we'd have a chance.
Since I had no chance of confirming anything except whether Randy was a wolf or not, I had to take a leap of faith to get a JL going. It was either post in the thread which is damn hard to do when you don't have a wolf to give as credentials or hope to hit a goodie. The wolves deserved this one.... GG Baddies!
We were hoping for the first days that the priest would scan Enkh and get him as an apprentice, but that never happened. Too bad, but now we know why.
I must also say, that I really like the destiller role and that this might be the answer to the overpowered lover. We got Kiwi this game, but he might as well have been surviving by not being home.
Also letting us choose the roles looks to be another way of possible nerf of the Iron JL's. With no before knowledge, we might have ended up with 1 Seer and 3 Seer apprentices. It would have been an advantage to getting the seer killed and getting 3 seers instead to fast trawl through the wolfs, but the point is that it really was impossible to guess what was in the game. In this case we ended up without a priest which along with me hitting villagers all day long prevented a JL forming. Should have realised it was too good to be through when Enkh had been in plain sight without at least some contact before hand. The only other contact we got was from people who wanted me to scan them and that screams SA to me and then I put them lowest on my list.
Ahh, well. Lessons learned and it was a fun game!
