[No Players] WW 36 Lurkers In The Gallery Of Peanuts

[Bobchillingworth]

I'd like to run my game, if I can get 13 players available for Role Madness. I can probably accommodate more players, should I be so blessed.

I'm still not fully convinced you aren't town. You were incredibly convincing.

Why couldn't you have been playing and been town then.

[Lewwyn]

I would be up for another game. I think everyone taking a break for a long while really calmed everyone a bit. Maybe a better perspective. In any case I'm enjoying the less antagonistic approach the last few games have taken on.

@Bob
I'll play.

My money is on dtay as the last scum. He's been working hard to earn town points but is running out of stamina. And he's all words, no action. Some of his posts gave me "muddying the waters" vibes, too. If you make a loooong post and at the end of it I cannot really tell what your conclusion is, that's a bad sign.

AdrienIer is contributing steadily and seems just as townish now as on day one. (I.e., slightly above average.) Point being, he doesn't get scummier with time.

Sunrise and Jabbz are just terrible lurkers. If it's one of them then the lurking is very coolly calculated. They look bad, but that is par for the course in a "mountainous" game. With no roles taking priority as night kills, that's what you're left with in the endgame.

I agree with all this. In a way though, Jabbz and Sunrise make things difficult for Dwolf. If there was just one ultra-lurker left it would be easier to swing a lynch onto them, but if he's left with both Jabbz and Sunrise then they might be more sympathetic to each other's low contributions.

If it is Dtay, I guess he has to decide between trying to get Jabbz and Sunrise to turn on each other, or keep Adrien alive and play the line that Brick's gambit was designed to get Adrien through. I think he'll go the latter, and I would as well, but it's a dangerous game because it leaves the most dangerous remaining player alive to defeat his evil plans.

By the way, I think the setup for this game was great - old-fashioned scumhunting-wise, with the Powerroles perfectly designed to be useful, and spark off discussion rather than "X is wolf because Y".

BRicks claimed role also fit into the setup, that was an extremely believable claim - and I think that role was very much something that could have been in the game. Both a positive result like you claimed and a negative result would have been useful to know, but not enough to lynch directly. I'd not be surprised to see this role added in future games.

And as to who the last scum is...well glad I don't have to choose. Generally speaking, if I'm in an endgame and have to take a 50-50 shot between someone who contributes and a lurking lurker, I'd lynch the lurker. At least then the "most desering" guy wins.

[Lewwyn]

I'm pretty convinced the last scum is not jabbz or sunrise. Dtay is def most likely scum. I do think Adrien gets tainted by brick a little bit, but I still believe his play to be the most villagery. If I were scum I'd kill jabbz tonight.

[Rowain]

jabbz or sunrise have to die tonight no matter who the scum is. Given that sunrise has yet not revealed what his passive role is killing Jabbz is the saver way.

So if sunrise gets nightkilled I would lynch Jabbz else dtay does look scummier than Adrien.


This is/was the first real WW game since a long time
Many thanks and to Commodore.

[Gazglum]

Nice work Jabbz. Its going to be hard for Dtay to come back from that, though he has done very well for his second ever game.

[pindicator]

That has to be Jabbz' best post all game. If it is dtay, and I can definitely agree with the reasoning, then bravo.
