[Game Thread] WW49: Wizards and Werewolves

[Rowain]

Fine you do not defend that thrawn
you do not know from which pool he spawns.
Does that preclude your ability to give a thought
as to whether he is or is not?

If thrawn doesn't start hunting no problem with voting him off. If he posts one more time how lost he is I'll vote thrawn myself.

Yes but thrawn has posted since you posted that,
has your mind changed since this act:

I am more convinced the WarriorKnight that is somehow neither warrior nor knight and yet showing off to all how he is so powerful must certainly be duplicitous.

Who is this WarriorKnight you speak of? I am Megumin!

All Crimson Demons show off how powerful they are when introducing themselves, that is the Crimson Demon way! And while my Explosion spell is indeed powerful, it comes at a great price. Not only do I not know any other spells aside from Explosion, but I can only use it once a day. And after I do cast it, it drains me off all my mana and leaves me unable to move, forcing someone to either carry me home or give me some mana so I can move myself. I don't care about any of that though, I love the Explosion spell more than anything! When I started, I chose to walk the path of the Archwizard just so that I could cast that one, glorious spell!

Is this spell something your learned in the pleasure house with the barbarian?

He made a joke. He did nothing more. My quoted statement stays. So far he has not started any looking for scum.

[AdrienIer]

Well I have to sleep now, I swear if by the time I wake up none of Pindi thrawn and DS have participated I'm asking for a triple lynch.
IIRC Warriorknight's few posts had content, but I'd like more of them if possible too.

Rule n°1 of WW : play the game.
Rule n°2 : play it in a pro-town way, or pretend to if you're not town.
How about we get to discuss who to lynch based on rule n°2 instead of rule n°1 ?? 

[Rowain]

@Gazglum I don't think you are scum. pindi has not done much so far but I won't vote for him today.

It’s still not an opportune time. "Admittedly the discussion didn't seem very productive", is me more or less disagreeing with both sides.

You are disagreeing with Lewwyn and me but my point was Serdoa is suspicious which you just said yourself  .
And me pointing out to Lewwyn that he is unproductive raises your eyebrown while you agree that it was not very productive  

Your point was that Serdoa was suspicious for voting Thrawn, wasn't it? That was certainly not my point. I think Serdoa is suspicious for hammering AdrienIer.
It's not you calling Lewwyn unproductive that raises my eyebrow, it's your vote on him.

You had a conversation with Lewwyn which was not overly productive in my mind, but it certainly didn't qualify as time-wasting either. You're complaining about four posts of his in short succession, but those are answers and followups to things you said. That's how conversations work, right?

Let me see if I can paraphrase the discussion:
Post 127: Lewwyn: Rowain, why is a vote on thrawn cowardly and lazy? Is thrawn a patsy that you are protecting?
Post 128: Rowain: I'm not here to protect anyone.
Post 130: Lewwyn: So you don't have a read on thrawn. Even patsies can be scum. You're gatekeeping Serdoa from hunting thrawn.
Post 131: Rowain: I'm not gatekeeping, but Serdoa's vote justification is too weak, I expect better from him.
Post 134: Lewwyn: It's early day one, what do you expect?
Post 136: Rowain: Thrawn is an easy voting place for scum. He is the "if you don't know what to do throw dirt on thrawn and vote him" for all bad guys. It is easy play and it is wrong play for town. Why need I explain that to you?
Post 138: Lewwyn: Last game thrawn was scum. Easy is not always wrong.

I feel like if anyone is responsible for the discussion dragging on, it's you and not Lewwyn. If you want Lewwyn to spend less time composing poetry to you, maybe try answering all his questions at once?

What question do you speak of? I answered that I'm not protecting thrawn.so question answered. I explained that thrawn is an easy place to park a vote for scum and that I expect different from Serdoa so question answered. there were not any more questions there so what are you after at?  So what is your reasoning to post that ? I should answer questions that aren't there? I'm Barbarian not diviner to imagine what in this bards brain happens.

Why did I post this? It was in response to what you posted here:

@novice: He spent 4 posts reiterating the same: 127130 134138
Nothing else from him in that time. But the highlight is:

You characterize my use of hours
as focused alone on you
but your the one who responds so dour
and draw me in to stew.

So he would prefer if I don't answer him? Since when does Lewwyn prefer those he accuses to not answer him? That doesn't raise your eyebrows?

Curious but I find myself in agreement with Serdoa here.

By the way, Lewwyn wasn't saying in that poem that he preferred that you didn't answer him, he was saying that if you had responded better he wouldn't have had to keep on questioning you.

In response to Lewwyn's initial poem, where my paraphrase is "Rowain, why is a vote on thrawn cowardly and lazy? Is thrawn a patsy that you're protecting?", you could haved answered
1. Why is a vote on thrawn cowardly?
2. Why is a vote on thrawn lazy?
3. Is thrawn a patsy?
4. Are you protecting thrawn?

You chose to only answer question 4.

[WarriorKnight]

This will be brief, as I'm crazy busy this morning.

novice, you are right that Lewwyn coming forward with his ability is a rather null tell all things considered, which upon rereading seem to be what most of his posts revolve around.

May I ask, why do you single novice out here? He wasn't the only one pointing that out.

Specifically, I'm responding to his statement directed at me in post 98.

I am more convinced the WarriorKnight that is somehow neither warrior nor knight and yet showing off to all how he is so powerful must certainly be duplicitous.

Who is this WarriorKnight you speak of? I am Megumin!

All Crimson Demons show off how powerful they are when introducing themselves, that is the Crimson Demon way! And while my Explosion spell is indeed powerful, it comes at a great price. Not only do I not know any other spells aside from Explosion, but I can only use it once a day.

Is this spell something your learned in the pleasure house with the barbarian?

Thrawn, I think it's a little late in the day to make posts solely commentating on roleplay no? Although since you asked, absolutely not! I don't care for puny axes or swords, I love only the raw destructive power that is my Explosion magic!

I have to say I'm not impressed your contributions so far thrawn. Aside from the above quote, since my last post (calling out non-contributors including yourself) all you've done is commented that Lewwyn's ability is a null read, echoing what others have said in the day. I second Gazglum here, please respond to his questions in post 209.

Dark Savant, I'm still waiting for you to check in. While I don't particularly want to vote a new player on their first day, your lack of contribution since the early RP introduction phase has forced me to strongly consider the possibility. Please jump in and provide an opinion on something, if you are lost please start with providing your own thoughts on Gazlgum's questions to thrawn in post 209.

Everyone else I've called out in my last post for low content has contributed in some form but I don't have time right now to look at any more of them in detail, that will have to wait until tonight.

[superdeath]

Ser Superdeath (though I have doubts about your knightdom), you mentioned your timezone. From whereabouts do you hail?

Iowa. Central Iowa to be exact.

Also, id prefer to be called Lord Momonga rather than a knightly Ser Sir. As a spellcaster of a respectable level i would never join the knighthood. Although i respect those that choose such a route.

[novice]

I'm getting flashbacks to reading Trainspotting.

No.

But I fired a shot at almost the same time as our monk (AdrienIer), at the same target, which was not intended.

Ah, but tha nay why ye jumped off him, was it lad?  Ye didn't change until more people voted as well.

So I think novice be lookin good fer jumpin in on this as well.  But nay jumpin in with 2 feet, if ye get me meanin.

It's funny, I had that exact same thought, but I don't remember posting it. I was planning to spring it on the Ranger after he'd sat down at the campfire with us.
But apparently I'm still looking good for voting him? Based solely on shooting from the hilt, is that what jumping in with fewer than 2 feet refers to?

Read my posts I have answered the questions way before already.
Here

@the rogue and the warrior: It is a very easy and cowardly vote on the sorcerer. With an easy argument.
For me this a rather un-Serdoa vote.

I'm kinda getting annoyed by novice asking the same questions that I have in mind but it makes sense to ask them of course:

1) Why is it un-Serdoa? I would actually say that it fits my way of looking at the game quite well. Basically I don't feel thrawn flailing around is honest. One post about the subject, maybe a second ok. But posting up a flurry about what character to play makes it seem as if that was somehow really important. And that either means that he wants desperately to fit in or he wants to post about something to be or appear active. Both things are common among wolves because you the first few times, you always feel like everyone is watching you. You basically mirror your own knowledge onto the others.

2) Why is that vote in your opinion easy and cowardly? I honestly just don't understand how you even mean that, given the amount of time the game was underway when I made that vote.

He is an easy targets for badies to put a vote: And the argument "you try too hard " is impossible to counter.

For me that is not you.

Strange that neither you nor Lewwyn could find it. What kind of game are you playing?

A game of communication where we try to help each other into achieving a common goal.

Also, when I say shoot from the hilt instead of shoot from the hip, that's just the medieval fighter in me seeping through.
