Look at todays tally and you see that MJW is the one.

You are correct ... MJW is the one with the 1.1 vote power .... ?_?

I'm curious as to why you view a 1.1 vote as a wolf power. Could you explain that?

Ah, well, its typically called 'Mayor' ... and I guess I've seen some set ups using it as a wolf power .... but largely it was a kneejerk reaction b/c I was already beginning to suspect Zakalwe. Honestly MJW's village read leads me to believe that the Mayor might actually be town in this game, so I am less likely to suspect MJW on similar evidence, due to differences in how they've been acting.

What I mean is, I'm not going to be going meta-wolf on MJW b/c he has seemed town to me thus far, but due to my suspicion on Zak I was willing to grasp at meta-straws to find something ... perhaps not the best play, but then again its only Day 2 ... (well, night 2 now).

Jabbz, what is your opinion on the 1.1 vote? (ive shown u mine now show me yours :P)

We're not obliged to torture anyone. You've been saying it should wait until all the discussion revolves around whether or not a specific player is guilty. I wouldn't say that was the case with Jabbz?

It doesn't, because your argument was nonsensical to begin with. Even if Mattimeo had flipped as a godfather, as you were hypothesizing, that would have done nothing to implicate me.

Name flips/claims so far, in chronological order:

Brick - Kassandra / Hades
Gazglum - Daidalus
Marcus Aurelius - Melampous
Jabbz - Perseus
Mattimeo - Orpheus
Lewwyn - Sisyphos

Going into the game, the only names here that were in some way familiar to me are Kassandra, Hades, and Sisyphos. And I only knew about Kassandra because there's a database system named after her. I had heard of Medusa, but I didn't know that her story involved titans, or anyone named Perseus. So please forgive my ignorance.

the game ends in a "tie" (ie) 3 villagers + 3 wolves, = wolves win ... so a 1.1 voting power is either, in this context, useless for the wolves b/c they have already won, or its useless for the villagers b/c they have already lost.

So then I suppose we need to look at pre-tie scenarios. A 1.1 vote power in Village hands helps to form a Village/wolf coalition (hard to be certain all are village, but still) ... easier to form a coalition favoring at least 1 villager's idea.

On the other hand, 1.1 vote in the wolf's hands helps them to push a mislynch, etc.

Ergo ... in a villager's hands its a moderate role, in a wolf's hands its more of a power role. If I had a read on Serdoa, I'd have to guess that it would make more sense for him to place it in a villager's hands since I havent seen any super-powers so far ... but the idea that it was in Zak's hands, and potentially a wolf super-power-role ... well, that was a bit unsettling.

The story of sysyphous is fairly common, to be sure, but is mostly used in analogy and people often forget his name ... (along with whomever it was whos liver was eaten out each day by an eagle, b/c he stole fire from the gods and gave it/ taught it to humans)

Meanwhile Orpheus and Persues are names easy to remember, which makes me think that you probably never took a Greek Mythos class and instead learned of the other names indirectly. (maybe a philosophy course, or the Hercules movie, etc ... a novel, etc). Still, I suppose its passable, but rather a strange collections of names remembered and names forgotten, as compared to the averages, imho.

Going by name-claims, someone being tortured by the gods seems like a likely candidate for someone who is being puppeted by a god ... hence Lewwyn might be a good choice to consider talking to tomorrow.

It's quite possible that its just Paranoia leaning towards Scum-Zakalwe, but I still think it is at least worth pursuing ... other than the inquisition of me, I haven't seen a lot of hunting from him.

Correct, I've never taken a course on Greek mythology.

...and I take it you've never taken a course on the scientific method? :P

I'm indeed "Mr. 0.1".

Well, assuming that the village wasn't wrong about the wolfs not-bussing Brick, Rowain is probably my best suspect. I could be up for a Zak lynch but he attacked Brick. Jabbz and AdrienIer, assuming he can show to me he's not SK, are safe. MA can be lynched but he feels like a confused villager to me now. MA are you sure your not a double-logon? Your posting style seems familiar.

Oh Lewwyn is an option but he hasn't done anything that wolfish and vanilla-Brick happened out of his timezone.
