Now who's defensive?

So if you didn't like either candidate, why didn't you vote for a third one? Why did you wait around for so long until someone else did?

claphamsa 05-18-2009 11:36 AM

basically yes. I couldn't decide and then there were votes for someone i didn't trust, so I jumped on board!

also, look at the payoff if it worked...PB would be dead, EF would be semi-trusted because he had been criticized, and Lathum would have been able to plead some cock'n bull story about having to vote that way because of his role, which would have been completely impossible to confirm. (which is actually what he is doing right now)

So the best way for me to gain trust is to make a play calling attention to myself, in a game where I can't say why I made that play or what benefit the play gives us, on the second day.

Right, makes perfect sense.


there is a cunning wolf in this game, isnt there?

you know damn well your mere existence invites a seer scan! (look, and exclamation point:p )

I'm asking why you didn't vote for a third player early -- when you always prefer to vote. If you didn't like either candidate, waiting only makes it even tougher for you to decide. Why didn't you put a vote on a candidate that you were more suspicious of early?

Lathum, you have just finished the one scenario where I can see you making this play - because you are a cunning wolf and will show up good on the scan.

Of course, I do not think that you really need to do this. You probably get scanned early enough on your own without any antics. Which is why I've more or less dismissed this scenario. But that is the only way that I can see your Day 2 play making any sense as a wolf. Low probability; pretty much discarded. I'll worry about it later in the game if we have a seer emerge with a trust list that includes you on it.

claphamsa 05-18-2009 11:40 AM

Because I couldnt decide. there is a difference between preferring to vote early, and voting early for the sake of it.

i had a reason to vote ealry day 2, turned out not to work, so I unvoted. cest la vie.

just try to keep your railroading on track here pass.

Why do you keep calling it railroading? What am I 'railroading' you into?

ummm, are you on crack? Lets say I am a wolf.

PB does get lynched, then everyone looks at me as the catalyst, lynches me the next day, then comes to the conclusion that I was protecting EF and lynch him.

Right, would have worked out awesome!

I can't help but think of the people who are trying to get me lynched today their is at least one wolf who is trying to get me killed out of reputation and for fear of the mechanic that was triggered for my role.

If you are so convinced then vote me, but there is zero chance I am lynched today.

claphamsa 05-18-2009 11:42 AM

bah, your attacking me for nothing, trying to make me look suspicious. yet your failing to do a very good job of it. since your not hitting anything legitimate. just vote for me and we can go back to wachign for lathum and schmity to go to town in the other thread

Hoops, I was leaning towards a lerriuqs vote myself...i dont know anything about him, so it is tough to get a read...that of course is compounded by the fact that he has said next to nothing until his post this morning about not understanding what is going on....that reeks of New Wolf Smell to me

this will probably be enough for me unless i talk myself into lathum

and you had been preparing your defense for PB's death the entire day...you could easily have gotten out of it, and dont pretend you dont think you couldnt...you have gotten out of way worse.

but again, why?

You and hoops have both said I would be scanned early based on reputation, there were others on the chopping block so why make that play?

If you are so convinced then please, vote me.

but getting scanned by the seer doesnt do you any good against the lynch unless the seer comes to your defense!

a public display that gets you on the trust lists is 10 times better than a seer scan because it is just that. Public.

has anyone voted for you on day 3 or 4 (yet)

hoopsguy 05-18-2009 12:03 PM

And just after PB throws down the posting gauntlet I'm going to have to pull back a little bit. I'm going to have company onsite at my client, which means less latitude to contribute to our merry little discussion.

Eh - I'll still be active right until that guy arrives. And for some kind of window after work and before deadline. Just not able to respond quite as efficiently as the last couple of days.

no, but that has zero to do with my play and everything to do with the fact there are people with far worse voting records, people like you I might add, whose voting record is piss poor.

You are forcing this way to much.

Danny 05-18-2009 12:13 PM

Game Event!!!

The event - Gov. Steelrooster declares that Martian Law has occurred. Tonight, Night 4, no space alien may take an action unless they get a pm from me telling them they can. PMs have already been sent, so if you are a space alien, and you didn't get one, you have to sit tight tonight.

I'm not attacking you. I'm just asking you questions. You're the one getting defensive about it, to the point where you've voted me. What makes you think I'm a wolf?

claphamsa 05-18-2009 12:29 PM

I think it was pretty clear EF was going to either be voted off or scanned very soon, what better way to buy trust then get in early on that sweet, sweet action.

It's what I would do. I think we would be making a huge mistake if we assumed there were no wolves voting for EF.


Voting for him, at least early in the day, may have been a Needie risk that was worth it. I dobut that any voted for him late when they had a perfectly viable villager running mate though.

And while voting for him might have been worth it, building the case against him in the morning when nobody was considering voting him would definitely not be worth it. I don't think there was any sense that EF was destined to be lynched or scanned at that point.

Again, I'm not harping. I'm just asking questions. For example, the most recent question you ignored is the one where I asked what it is that makes you think I'm a wolf. Why does my asking you questions upset you so much?

claphamsa 05-18-2009 12:34 PM

? well you asked why i thought you were a wolf, and I answered that you are lathuming me, for no reason. were you asking me legit questions it would be a differnt story, but your just bla bla blaing.

What makes a question not "legit"? And I know that lathuming is a fun buzzword and all that, but can you be a little more specific about what it is you're accusing me of doing? Because what I recall as 'lathuming' is a lot different from what I'm doing.

Danny 05-18-2009 12:38 PM

Yay! I just finished my last assignment for the semester. A take home case study final. Had to come up with a program of interventions and instructional strategies for specific cases. Now I am off for a whole week before the next session starts :rolleyes:

Also, I will be going out of town on Saturday morning until Tuesday evening. This means, the Friday deadline will be that night and that I will not be around to answer questions / entertain all of you on Tuesday. I will be back to process the deadline, though it might be a little late.

Oh, I get it. This was supposed to be an answer to my question of why you thought I was a wolf. I get it. So if I'm "lathuming" you, even though I don't think I've done anything of the sort, why am I doing it to you, right now? Are there candidates out there I'm trying to save? Does anyone even have any votes on them?

Telle 05-18-2009 12:43 PM

Votes as of post #2143:

1 - Telle - Poli (1981)
2 - Lerriuqs - Autumn (2021), hoopsguy (2057)
1 - Passacaglia - claphamsa (2087)

Either you're simply trying to use "lathuming" as a generic insult, or you just don't know what it means. Anyway, why would "harping endlessly about meaningless things" make someone a wolf? And why do you consider the way people vote to be meaningless?

DaddyTorgo 05-18-2009 12:59 PM

so we should look for people who voted early on EF and didn't provide a reason OR people who voted late on PB

and we should cross-reference that with the other day's results...

Autumn 05-18-2009 01:02 PM

I think we should only look at early EF voters if they weren't around later. Not that I'm sure if we can figure that out, but I can't see a wolf leaving their vote there the way the voting turned out.
