Assassin in the Palace (WW minigame)

Well even though wehate each other, we apparently made a good if unkonwing and hostile team. :P

FWIW, your "good job" post was the best village post of the day IMO. I was starting to really believe Zak was king going into that gambit, and that post rattled me. Very nice.

thanks. I didn't know you were the assassin until the post right before that when you voted Zak. I had to act like I still suspected Zak, though. I was hoping you would kill Uber (you weren't killing me or Brick).


oddly enough, the first 3 days I was trying to subtly hint to the assassin that YOU were the king. Really didn't suspect you at all - that was all Zak getting you lynched.

Anyways, to explain my play... I was starting to suspect Zak as king. I decided I wanted to try to win the thing now by gaining some clarity while people were still chatty. The plan was to write that post on Zak and jump onto him. I figured Uberfish might recognize it as a possible gambit and join me. Then I'd wait for someone to write up a forced explanation for why I looked guilty. Brick provided that. Unfortunately, Bigger's "good job" post just rattled me into thinking Zak wasn't the king, so I re-evaluated and went with my game-long gut of Uberfish.

Nicely done. Last few hours were exciting.

Eat that? We're on the same team you sod. :P

haha, sorry man, much love . I was just annoyed at you and Serdoa constantly criticizing my early play, happy to help save us on day 4 .

The alternative was I'd just get lynched immediately by uberfish & gang, but that would also confirm it was Zak. So that was the other possibility.

Yeah I thought zakalwe was acting too anti-town for no particular reason and the fact that no one was voting for him stood out.

Trouble was he was posting this stuff about wanting to catch the assassin if the assassin accidentally voted for the king.

Which probably led to slowcheetah's lynch.

Which made it hard to give zak cover by attacking him as scum.

However at least I could still be the king because no one was voting for me.

Yeah, all game long I was thinking uberfish because NOBODY was calling him on anything at all. Then Zak started making a lot of sense so I made that case to try to read reactions.

Nicely played all! Sorry for a lack of long write-up, dealing with a fussy baby makes typing hard. Anyway, looks like it was a fun game, I'd definitely be interested in playing next time one of these comes around.

On that note, any advice criticism on the game style if we do another one?Possible changes to the gameplay?

Yeah, I really regret not joining Slowcheetah on Zak. Also if I had switched to Serdoa instead of making other people switch to slowcheetah on day 2, we might not have had to lynch Slowcheetah on day 3 .

funny, Scooter didn't get any votes until day 4 either. I was actually intentionally avoiding him, while attacking everyone else (including Zak). That was brilliant, trying to make the assassin think that the assassin is the king :/.
