WW17: Lurker Thread

[BRickAstley]

A Pimp can also mean a man that runs a prostitution ring like an agent, and takes a cut of their earnings.

Well, as a non-native speaker I have to admit that I don't know what the word "pimp" really means. I only know it from TV-shows, like "Pimp my ride". As we play in a kinda medieval them, I would expect that zak was able to pimp up someones horse? No clue what for tbh, but I am sure he made it look ridiculous

A pimp is the man in charge of some prostitutes - he hires them out to people ("pimps them out") or just extorts some of the money they earn in return for "protecting" them from other predatory people.

I'm not quite sure where "pimp my ride" fits in, it's more of an Americanism, but I think it might come from a perception of pimps as dressing to be noticed in a sort of gangster sense of if you look the part you'll get the respect?

Yeah, stateside a pimp is generally assumed to be a low class gangster who dresses flamboyantly and adorns himself with money-based status symbols.

It's interesting that Lewwyn and Pindicator seem to both have entered a mental framework where they're more concerned about who loses the game than who wins.

[Rowain]

Just some tin-hatting to pass the time:

Currently known powers of the village:

1 Tracker/watcher
1 double voter
1 Doctor
1 1-shot Commuter (= completly immune to all night-actions)
1 pimp (whatever he does)

Possible additional roles
1 (multi-shot) vigilante
1 rolescanner

Known Traitors:
1 Jailkeeper (protect target and roleblocks)

Given that and the fact that the traitors also have to contest with a bulletproof (immune to vig) SK I think the most balanced version would be the rolescanner as traitor. It would also fit that he scanned me because he thought I might be a PR because of my nameclaim.

Alternatly it would fit if the Traitors have a singleshot vig which would mean BRick got killed by thestick and I got killed by the traitors (perhaps the PR-indication of my name-claim). A multishot vig on the traitors side would be a bit OP IMO.

BTW Azza said his result on Lewwyn scan was vigilante but nothing about multishot (of course this is an uberfish game so he might have withheld that information).

Either way we will know the truth in 2 hours the latest

[Sareln]

Three hours. Gotta budget in the time for an awesome Uberfish writeup.

I expect him to be already writing that so that it is finished and posted at 10:00:01 PM GMT

Prepared reactions depending on the result who the last traitor is:

pindicator: played. Fighting such an uphill battle and nearly winning deserves praise. IMO one of the best wolf-games ever.

Azza: well done and a great move with your claim. That moved you from nr 1 suspect to sure villager in a short time. And at Lewwyn for beeing wrong every single day and night. I guess the happy news you got clouded your brain a bit .

Lewwyn: to that game. And from now on if Lewwyn doesn't deliver a wolf day 3, lynch him he is scum. (And I would have gotten all remaining baddies in my suspect list and been completly right with my innocents )

Jkaen: Hardly realistic but if so *stunned silence*

[Commodore]

6 hours until 2 of you lose along with me.

I play my best village game yet and you want to lynch me for it...

I thought it was Azza, until Pindicator was willing to switch to Lewwyn. That just makes no sense as a villager - you can't lynch 'not me', you have to lynch the scum and only the scum. Pindicator should know that.

Yeah, I just don't understand how he swapped. Lewwyn claims vig. Azza claims role-scanner, and claims to have scanned Lewwyn to yield vig. So either Azza is traitor (lying or not) or Lewwyn is a traitor vigilante? So in other words, traitors get two kills a night? That's a bit much to believe. Although Lewwyn's targeting thus far would be consistent with him being on Team Badguy.

A bit!!??
