First of:
YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
My very first WOLF victory in Lite! (and complete big game).
And I actually beat jonti, whom I consider my favourite fellow WW player, and the best player around. I actively didn't hunt him, nor did I want to hunt Lem (before he outed himself as seer), AOK (before he subbed out) or hdk (until I suspected him being the seer).
I'd love to make a TIE stick, and to kill both wolves tonight.
However, they'd not let it stand so we must make sure one or the other wolves dies tonight. Then we kill the other tomorrow.
Now if you'd just bloody surrender, we could begin the new game.
I realised that the fact that the apparent wolves did not surrender might make you actually change your mind about trespoe being a wolf, and vote split instead. Despite the inherent logic in calling a clear wolfpack to surrender, might give troubles when that clear is actually wrong. Something like always showing your cards with poker, except for that time you actually bluffed).
Why didn't Rysz votesnipe and end the game the day before?
And WTF with Lemeards scans? Did everyone he scan die?
I was killing off mostly of the new players. I can't help it the seer also scans the same ones.
Also, I didn't snipe friday, because I had an appointment 30 minutes before the deadline, and feared I might not return in time (which I didn't, arrived 10 minutes later).
One more thing:
Thanks Rysz for not getting me killed when you could have done so easily and without endangering yourself. That is how CAWZ is supposed to work. Whether you considered that in your decision or not, I appreciate that.
I think you refer to the tie in the first days? Yes, I did that because of CAWZ. Also, as I said above, I wanted to win this game against the veteran players. Too bad you subbed out, although I am curious if you did suspect me to be the 4th wolf?
I had a bizarre thought at the end. The last wolf was playing for himself, not the pack. And would vote another person at the end, causing a tie w/ me and Split.
Hunt jonti or the other
and have the win all to himself.
I was thinking Cymsdale for that, because I just didn't see Rysz failing to votesnipe and bring 3 wolves to victory.
I wasn't there the night EURO died. More on that later.
Some GM Notes:
5. One of the weirdest parts of the game were the last two days, when rysz apparently overly concerned that he would be outed as a wolf, voted for his packmates, which, ironically, delayed the outcome of the game.
No and yes. Ofcourse I would be concerned about being
suspected (not outed, which is inherently different), and I played to keep as unsuspected as possible.
I don't understand that people say they are puzzled that I voted my packmates, delaying the game, or playing for myself. Part of being wolf is hiding yourself well enough that other people don't suspect you. Ofcourse, OUTING a fellow wolf is absolutely not done. But EURO was outed by the (soon-to-be-confirmed) Lem-JL. Perhaps not yet on that day, but because I couldn't be online at deadline, I couldn't take the chance. Yes, I offered EURO there, but EURO was outed, and would have been lynched sooner or later. Would a snipe be succesful? Perhaps, but why would I take the risk, if I actually had been at home?
Remember that day begun with the fake JL-outing. This was Split's idea, and although I gave him some tips, and my "approval", it was his risk to take. Why should I place myself at risk in case it backfired? If he didn't, EURO would have been outed that day anyway. You cannot blame me for voting and lynching a packmate in that case.
All wolves were outed. walrus was already dead by the first JL-outing. EURO was outed by Lem. I suspected jonti was bluffing about Naut's PM, but I couldn't risk defending split in case it was true.
Any wolf would vote his packmates in that case. If jonti changed his mind today, and changed to split, there would be another day, in which case I would have a hard time defending myself why I voted the villager trespoe, so I did split. I knew split would vote trespoe, breaking the tie, and winning it for both. But just in case jonti sniped to split, I had to build that safeguard.
Yes, I played on safe. Yes, I was not hesitant in backstabbing an already outed wolf. Is that bad wolf play? Is that playing for my own win? The first no, the second perhaps, but isn't that part of being a wolf?
Anyway, I thoroughly enjoyed this game, and I am very glad I finally succeeded in a wolf-victory. To me, it was one of my best WWL-games.
Any comments?
