*Sigh*, so many posts to go through with so limited time.
My first thoughts- why on earth did so many people just switch votes towards the end of the day? That was some pretty strong bandwagoning going on, and in the end a villager got lynched. Not that I'm entirely surprised, because we were unlikely to nag a wolf quite yet, but it's still a bit shocking to me at least. Lazy voting is lazy voting.
It's quiet, too quiet. In the interest of spurring discussion, I'd like to ask the following five players to go on the record and state exactly why they all switched to HDK right before switching to Eusebio almost immediately after.
Putting these two quotes together since they're related, even if they're about different aspects of what happened D2. Yesterday's votes were virtually stagnant - everyone agreed Chefjones was suspicious (deservedly so, but still) and put him in the lead, and while a couple other candidates jockeyed for position not much really happened. So we basically learned that lots of people would be OK with Chefjones dying, and not much else, and if we kept it that way that's all we'd have gotten out of the day.
Now perhaps Chefjones is a wolf, and that would have been a good outcome. But with everyone seemingly OK with lynching him, it felt a little less likely to me. So I looked for people who I might want to start a switch onto, saw things I didn't like from hdk and Cody on a very quick read, and tried to see if a switch would get traction - and it did very quickly. Maybe too easily, with a lot of hitherto silent people suddenly jumping on as well. So lots of people, including some who may be sketchy, apparently are OK with killing hdk - boom, that's information we didn't have before, and might make hdk less of a good lynch. So then I moved to Eusebio, who was not one of my picks but who seemed to have some traction as an alternate candidate, and who hadn't done anything to make me think well of him with his posts on the day. And by the time that switch happened, it was too late to do anything else (although I thought I still had two more minutes, since I didn't realize that my computer clock hadn't been properly synced up). I was pretty sure once I read Eusebio's last post that he was a villager, but we were already at deadline.
So there's the logic behind it, if you're interested. In the first couple days of the game my goal is to get information on as many players as possible and hopefully luck into lynching a wolf while I'm at it. The latter hasn't happened yet, but all the same I don't think it's been entirely unproductive, and as we learn more about the allegiance of other players the picture should become clearer than it would have been in the absence of the switch.
