Yes Jowy but Lewwyn asked you why you voted still for slowcheetah just some minutes ago when it was a different situation.

I kindly ask you to think abit more before you post.

[Lewwyn]

I'm buying Jowy as noob village at this point.

Lewwyn why did you claim that he'd played Mafia before?

He'd exclaimed in the 2 rooms game or one of the threads, "Oh I didn't know WW was forum mafia!" indicating he was familiar with it and would have liked to play if he had known WW was a version of it. That + his play during the 2 rooms game made me confident he was not a noob. But as Jowy has so spectacularly shown in our "conversation" he does seem to be a noob.

[Ichabod]

at the votes I received.

Anyway, MJW is way more suspicious than all the other players (well, I still have some 15 pages to read), so I'll just go back and watch people letting him get away.

my bad. me and lewwyn crosspost earlier. i had already voted lewwyn when he ask me why i vote slowcheetah.
thats why i thought he meant at time of vote.

Uberfish because he believes Brick's sanity based claim but concludes that MJW is the wolf. Just seems incongruent.

Novice must have read my posts out of order to come up with this one, since people explained the brick sanity thing to me after my initial MJW vote (when I hadn't caught onto brick's claim at all), at which point I unvoted. I think this sequence/thought process was clear to most people, for example Jkaen commented on it.

Now, novice probably is telling the truth about having limited time to browse the forum, but the expected behaviour of people reading a WW thread with limited time would be to make one and only one pass straight through. So I think a likely sequence of events in this case is

1) Novice sees zak say he doesn't like one of my posts and opportunistically votes me
2) Novice checks back and sees that no one else follows him so now feels he has to justify the vote
3) Novice reads my posts out of order because he doesn't have much time and needs to quickly find some posts by me

In my experience, RB WW is a pretty intense experience compared to other forum mafia games.

Slowcheetah,

You like how slowcheetah has only attacked people that attack him too, uber?

Narcissism :P? With pressure already being applied I'd be a lowhanging first target for the wolves. primarily because I'm not actually very good.

"so far" meaning one post rolleye

Let's see... my day in a nutshell: I confused MJW with MNG, and saw the same kind of squirming wolf that reminded me of my first game. Still voting for MJW, btw.

I pointed out that Lewwyn was wrong when he said Brick had violated his PR and voted for Brick for that reason. Yes, I did that with questions instead of stating "Brick didn't violate his PR"

I tried to get a handle on the Zak <-> Brick exchange, due to a misinterpreation of what Brick told Zak, to see if anything was there. Turns out I just misunderstood Brick's pictures. (Btw Zak - can you tell me what you thought that string of pictures I misunderstood meant? I'd ask Brick, but... well, Brick, if you can think of a different way to explain that would be nice too.)

And then when I suggested slowcheetah was trying a bit too hard to act helpful, he attacks me

Right now I want to stay on MJW because regardless of my mixup, I still want to hear him tlak and not see him disappear after a few votes go on him. I'm pretty trusting of Brick so far, and by extension that means Zak now too. Slowcheetah I think looks more scummy than not so far. And I would like to dig into the Jowy posts and see what others have noticed there. But tomorrow, after I've slept off this bug a bit (and I feel like it's on the mend, finally -- damn thing's been with me since Monday).

There ya go, Day 1 from me so far. You'll have to forgive me for not finding any obvwolves yet.

You still haven't commited anything here though. You say you want to remain on MJW for the pressure and to hear him talk, but as I remember he a) doesn't have a problem talking anyway and b) the pressure seems slightly obsoleted by the big bandwagons currently rolling on myself and Jowy.
The other candidate you suggest is scummy is myself. A villager who is under severe pressure and where your vote might start making cracks. Why wander off down the garden path with MJW at this point?

Uberfish

If you find a wedding free moment, why Uberfish? It may be because he has agreed with my points but I haven't seen any scumtells.

Additionally, I like the case for Jowy stated by many people, but I think best explained by Gazglum. At this moment I'd be happy to vote for either him or pindicator, but would prefer pindicator.

I definitely don't remember you playing this aggressive as a wolf, SC. And then in your next post:

Looking through the case against Ichabod is interesting as well. I believe it was Rowain who stated that his last vote for pindicator had no reasoning:

Zak, i already posted my reason. It's more of a feel off his posts, and how it reminds me of a prior wolf game of his.

Question back at ya: after your back and forth with Brick, what's your thoughts on him and his accusation on you?

Pindicator.

If he's a wolf it's cleverer then that. The message is confusing, there are multiple different interpretations of the image, and no thorough explanation. Therefore:

1) Ichabod's posts encourages people to look back at pindicators posts
2) If something suspicious springs out they are more likely to come to the conclusion that is what the picture meant and agree with Ichabod.

As I type this I realise that occams razor suggest it more likely the Ichabod also wanted to have fun with pictures. He also feels more like villager Ichabod than the long, wordy wolfabod I played with once.

You're not hammering down on me, instead you're looking at other targets. Well, you decide that Ichabod's village in the next post, so maybe this is just a ruse. But I agree that Ichabod needs to explain his reasoning more as to what he interpreted Brick's picture.

I think that I am a logical target for wolves to test the waters with. They have to attack someobody after all. Posts directed at me get my attention, and I tend to go back and look at their arguments more thoroughly. I believe 5 people are voting for me right now, NOT including pindicator, but he was the one whose postings seemed the most suspicious.

I looked at Ichabod, thought about it for a bit and reckoned that he was a less likely wolf than Jowy or Pindicator, in fact he still feels more village to me. Posting my thought process clearly makes me an evildoer.

Okay, tip for free in case you are village (which it's starting to look more like) – do you think ALL the wolves would gang up on you day one out of the gate? The last thing that scum wants to do is give away themselves or their team.


But I agree with you that wolves will try to blend in and do little. Which makes me vote for zakalwe
