What waste? We have a lock now for someone not being a wolf. This is a step in the right direction. Let's not knock it just because it didn't kill/unveil a wolf. |

Aren't we throwing around the word 'lock' fairly easily? The holy water might protect him, we don't know do we?

Who's talking about protection? Fact is, holy water plus evil is usually a bad thing for evil. Ergo, BK is likely not evil. And since Pass would probably be thinking the same thing, he likely isn't a wolf either because it would make more sense as a wolf to just keep that potentially dangerous potion in wolf hands. For at least a day, IMO, it likely removes two people from our lynch discussions. There are nine of us left, and the general reasoning has been probably three wolves. So that means we have a 3/7 chance of finding a wolf today--I will take those odds right now. And there's still more we may be able to do with other potions and ingredients before this day ends. We get one wolf--just one--and we likely knock over the domino that will point us to the rest of them. If BK is protected, too, well, that's just a bonus. |

I don't mind leaving Barkeep out of the voting conversation today for reasons I've previously stated. I just questioned the idea of saying he is now proven good. Elevated chance, sure. Proven, no.

Isn't that semantics though? Is it 100% sure? I suppose not. We don't really know exactly what Holy Water does or what effect it has on good or bad. But we can make a pretty reasonable guess based on the traditionally good nature of Holy Water, and I hardly think something that brings up angels and harp music when it's around someone is an indication that person is bad. Until further evidence comes out to suggest he is not good, I am fairly confident we can rule BK out of our calculations for who is a wolf. |

OK, I've made up my mind where my vote is heading today.
Path has earned himself an elevated position of trust through the passing of items this game. However, when looking closely at the actions in Day 3, heading into Night 3, you can build a strong case for him as a wolf. 1.) He knows Pass has items, as this has been announced in the thread. Holy water is one of these items, something that just might concern the wolves, no? 2.) Potions are passed as a day action, results are received prior to night completion 3.) Path doesn't get notice on receiving the potion of holy water, so who else might have it given that Pass said he was going to move the item 4.) Kill Swaggs However, Pass held the potion thus foiling that plan. They still took out a largely trusted villager, while retaining a villager that trusts Path nearly completely. So it isn't a waste, but the holy water was still in play. And has now been used, pseudo-clearing both Pass and BK for today. That isn't the result they are looking to achieve. VOTE PATH12 |

Pass, I think BK was exactly the right person to test. Because it provides - for me, at least - clarity about Day 3. There were late votes coming in for him that comdemned Lathum to death. We know that those were not orchestrated by the wolves to save one of their own if the Holy Water works the way we think it does. Which means Day 3 just sucked and that at least three of the four people in Day 2 were villagers (LSG as the sole person who is not determined for me, I recognize the rest of you do not know that I'm a villager).

Pass, I'm making that assumption for today. It requires a bit of a leap of faith that holy water helps us and hurts them, which seems reasonable to me.

Going through Barkeep's list of posts by Path, he left out a detail in #92:
"laying the groundwork early" in response to Lathum saying I'm likely a wolf if I'm around on Day 3. We now know that Lathum was a villager. This statement set off some minor alarms for me at the time towards Path, since I didn't see a reason for him to defend me. Similar to how Barkeep felt yesterday that Path didn't have reason to defend him for playing his normal game when others didn't see it. In post #814 he is willing to try to make the eternal bond potion if he gets the ingredients. In post #842 he thinks that I'm being "wolfish" by suggesting that we try naming two people and that he isn't the one listing the names and I get his vote. |

In all fairness to path, he did pass me the ingredients for the eternal bond potion. I guess the village might have been pressuring him to do it, though.
So far I know that path has passed to the village: the holy flask (used for making holy water) newt tail and vine (used for eternal bond potion) And maybe the peppers. That's a lot to pass. |

Checking my PMs, he definitely sent me the peppers. Going back into the thread, I'm wondering if Swaggs didn't notice that I passed them to him.

Passing items is worth it if it
- buys trust, which means you might get them back - know where to go to get them if you need them, given public/small trust lists I'll go searching for order of posts this afternoon (about to disappear for a few hours) but wasn't Swaggs the first person to work with you, and Path joined in afterwards? |

I really want to examine the posts of LSG and hoops, but I am leaning towards voting for path as well. His reactions just seem a little off the whole game, especially as he became more prominent in Day 4.

Well, it removes the wolfish element from the late vote on Day Two, yes, as it would be supposed if Barkeep is not a wolf (as it appears) that saving a wolf is not a reason for the late run or switching of votes. I wouldn't say it clears us involved, though. If a player was a wolf but simply holding his vote for some other reason or maybe because he really wasn't certain who to go for (after all, if you're a wolf and there's a fight between two villagers in a vcote, is it at all clear who you should vote for? not necessarily...), then a late voter could still be a wolf. Not saying there isn't some grounding for your theory on that part, but I would advise caution making assumptions on that basis. As for path, I'm up in the air on that. I'm not sure how much we have to go on here, but am listening to the theory and will try to work out some things myself. One thing that bothers me is that, hoops, you are not some person cleared in my mind at all, and my fear is (as a potential wolf), you might actually be attempting to steer us all in the direction of a villager. But I am listening to all viewpoints at the moment. |

Right, it doesn't absolve late votes from being wolves, per se, but reduces their motivation to rig the vote. If we had seen something different with BK + holy water, then we would have to look really hard at the Day 3 (and Day 2) votes. |

After what happened with Lathum, I don't know why everybody isn't suspicious of Hoops. I think that Path is a wolf too, and if need be, I will switch my vote to him later today, but I would like more people to put pressure on Hoops.

I feel even better now about my vote for hoops. Again, one of our most careful players has just made two misstatements: 1) The only reason we have holy water is because I passed the holy flask to Pass. If I was a wolf, there was really no reason for me to introduce that into the game. 3) The potion that Pass thought Swaggs passed to me was blinding potion, not holy water. A flat out misstatement used to justify his vote on me. I'm very confident that hoops is a wolf.

Dola, but going forward I see he is either swaying some folks with another false argument (as with Lathum), or else he has some fellow wolves trying to point the finger in my direction since he knows I'm onto something.
When you're deciding whether to vote me, go back through Barkeeps log of my posts. I maintain there is nothing there that says anything but a villager. If you still want to vote me, fine. We're probably losing the game anyway.

Path, if you want to try and get into a game of semantics to discredit what I'm saying, that is certainly your perogative. However, this has nothing to do with Pass thinking Swaggs was passing you a potion. It has to do with you not ending up with the holy water -which you had knowledge of prior to the night actions - and then acting in a manner to simultaneously take out a trusted player and go hunting for items.
The act of passing the items is considerate and all, but it really doesn't mean all that much if you think you can just go retrieve them before they are used. Which is what I position that you intended with the public passing of the flask. Buy the trust, then take the item back ASAP. If I was just trying to build an argument for who I think I should go after to try and live another day, I don't think you are the best choice. But I'm going after the person who has the most to gain by the wolves play, and whose play I can associate with the game I've seen the wolves run up to this point. I didn't ever think I was going to convince you that you are a wolf. Either you are, and you know exactly what team we are both on, or you aren't in which case I'm wrong again and you obviously should object. Either way, of course you are going to take my approach as justifying your vote for me. LSG is a lost cause this game in my eyes. If she isn't a wolf, then her fixation on me being alive past Day 2 and all that crap is completely driving bad decisions. However, there are still plenty of others here who can try to make the right decision between now and the deadline. First, figure out if I'm wolf/not wolf. If the latter, then lets work together to see if this game is still salvageable. I think it is, and I think it starts with taking out Path today. |

Still going through the 100+ posts of hoops (I'm on Day 3). But LSG is looking more and more suspicious as I go back and see some of her posts as I do the recap on hoops. I'm going to go that way with my vote for the moment.

I will in in and out all night, no idea if I'll be on around deadline time or not, I got a migraine thats blacking out my right eye currently (c'mon excedrin migraine...) Currently the two people that seem the most suspicious in everyone's eyes (including mine) are hoops and LSG, I've had a real bad feeling about LSG all game long (note my votes for her on earlier days before popular sentiment caused me to change votes later on) I'm going to stick with my guts on this and keep my early vote today on her: VOTE LSG |

If I ever said that I was voting for you because you were alive past day two, (which I might have, but I dont remember and dont feel like looking) it was a joke. I am tired of people following you because you are Hoopsguy and believing every piece of BS you throw out there. Just because I don't have the time or patience to go through and analyze every post like you and Barkeep, doesn't mean that what I say or believe is crap. You made a big mistake with Lathum and people have already forgiven and forgotten... but if I would have done that, or ntn or path, we would be on the chopping block right now. |

Pass, do you still believe that your entire COT from earlier was wolf-free when we are down to nine players?
Help me understand why you think I'm barking up the wrong tree with Path. I want the conversation around this, both for the benefit of today and for the next day of action whether I'm around or not. |

Ok I got up until today with hoop's post recap and I will be leaving work soon so I will likely finish later. I do feel much better about hoops though I will point out that Swaggs was pretty fericously anti-hoops and Swaggs is now dead, just as DT was on D1 and DT ended up dead. But like I said I feel slightly better about hoops after what has transpired during D4 and after doing this recap.
Day 1 58 Says he has name an item but doesnt want to say what they are 64 In response to me says there are pro/cons to item reveal. Is concerned about giving wolves a roadmap. Generally favors free information just not in this game. 66 Is also concerned about reveal names due to power in magical cultures 96 Feels that there is only between 10-20% of finding wolf [favoring no lynch] 97 Wishes there had been a Night 0 Night 1 142 Wants his no vote considered a vote for no lynch. Claims to not really understand impact of rules Day 2 150 Was in kitchen and found nothing. Asks Pass questions about how recipes work 158 Suggests if people are going to help Pass not to post about it in thread. Suggests eternal bond as lovers potion 168 Agrees with CR that PM suggests future kitchen searches to be more successful 190 Suggests I drop my no lynch questions 192 Asks if recipe is a potion or magic item 215 Says that DT was more likely killed for his ingredient than because DT was suspicious of him 224 Got no idea of who else was in the kitchen 225 Suggests location of DTs body is important 236 Asks if item passing is done in real time or at end of day 242 Asks what happens to items of lynched person 244 Beginning to think name is not important 245 Thinks a villager who is going to lynch passes items rather than risk a random dispersal 247 Wonders where everyone went 250 Asks how wolves would have played with their information (report vs not report) 258 Clarifying that I did not see anyone in my PM 260 Lists what everyone has posted about their night results 261 Asks Ardent and I if we saw each other 265 Defending against a vote says he doesnt have a cool role but that he is a conversation starter 267 Explains to LSG that he didnt realize that she had also failed to send in an order 270 Feels that putting out info about who has done what is helpful to village [vs. keeping this to himself[ 273 Reviews all the Izulde related posts 277 Vote count 309 Feels I have been close to the vest. Is interested in the fact that others have suspected me 310 Encourages Izulde to pass items before hes lynched 316 Thinks LSG is more likely wolf than Izulde. 317 Is closely scrutinizing me and path over current vote leaders 326 Asks who I trust 336 Feels that I am off track with my assumptions about him 338 Votes for LSG and gives vote count 342 Fixes mistake from vote count 343 Leaving vote on LSG, distrusts her more than me 346 Feels she has multiple posts ignoring run on Izulde 352 Sent in conditional order to pass item if hes tied or in the lead 259 Unimportant post Night 2 370 Explains to LSG that his vote on her was not throw away as she had multiple votes when he cast his vote 372 Explains to path that path is suspicious from Day 1 Day 3 389 Found nothing in the kitchen again 390 Would like explanation for why Lathum voted for him 392 Would laugh if Day 1 after Lathum votes for him with no explanation in 391 395 States when he is bad guy biggest goal is to randomize results in eyes of the good guys. Also points out that he more frequently is dead by Day 3 when Lathum is a wolf 399 Encourages Lathum to think of risk/reward of voting him out 400 Encourages Pass to use judgment about making recipe publicly available 414 Thinks cronin was killed for destroying recipe. Is reluctant to name his starting ingredient 423 Names starting ingredient as cactus bulb and states he will be giving it away by end of the day 430 Explains again he has no items and that the second search was more likely to result in something 433 Encourages people not to be afraid to move items to Pass as they can be moved again 434 Posts information about rooms/people/items 445 Thinks the game is about to be interesting [as path is passing Pass container] 472 Doesnt think bad guys are anything but humans. Suggests holy water might be a tone time seer 481 Thinks there is overlap in spells/potions 482 Thinks holy shield would include using holy water 510 Tells Pass that yellow flower counts as an item 534 Is less opinionated about vote than on D2. Assumes Pass is a good guy. Gives elevated trust to those who have helped pass, Swaggs and path. One of the four D2 people was a wolf. Wants to know why LSG got leeway for yesterday 541 Asks if I think that it was four villagers on D2 542 Explains about leeway for LSG: People removed votes from her but not Izulde after Alan clarified rule regarding not receiving a PM 549 Shows LSG that when he voted for her that she was still in contention 553 Gives Izulde vs LSG timeline. Asks LSG if shes voting for him because of his vote on her or because she suspects him 566 States that while he is wrong frequently he is willing to reevaluate his assumptions fairly quickly 569 Asks Pass if he made something besides holy water 579 Lists posts which caught his eye. Seems to find contradiction by Lathum 580 Vote count 582 Suggests Lathum could have been playing it close to the vest 585 Suggests to Swaggs that I have been inconsistent for several days but he hasnt pulled the trigger 586 States that Izulde was always in vote lead on Day 2 589 Votes for Lathum 593 Vote count 597 Admits he misread Lathums post. Votes for me 606 Insists Lathum mistake was honest and is why he gives post # so info can be validated 612 Vote count 617 Says Swaggs should vote for him if Swaggs feels like hoops was double crossing 618 Vote count 626 Points out that AE and Chief still havent voted and I can move my vote 641 Vote count for 9:59 and 10:00 649 Gives reasons for voting for me. I pushed for info on Day1 but didnt reveal on Day 2. Had better flow of info on D3 651 Thinks it will be 10:00 vote count Night 3 711 Is confident that he will not be night killed 713 Unimportant post 724 Explains why he would be a bad night kill after yesterdays Lathum controversy 743 States he was passed a recipe and ingredient by two different players. 745 Is happy to say who passed things to him 746 Wonders why NTN is on Passs trust list 749 Im not sure what this post is referring to. I believe it is something to do with Pas 751 Wants to know if Pass will talk about what he did with the potions |

I want to be very clear: My vote is on LSG but I believe both she and path are wolves. Just feel stronger about LSG.
I do think she has a fair point, however, that hoops has gotten off pretty lightly for his mistake. Of course I now think hoops is a good guy so I'm not sure what all that point has accomplished |

We have all pointed fingers at path, hoops, bk, me and a little at Pass but we have basically ignored NTN, AE, Chief and Render. One of those four have to be a wolf that is just staying out of our way. And from what I know about playing wolf with ntndeacon in that Marvel Comics game, he is a great wolf because he likes to stay out of the limelight.

Yes. I don't know why you thought path said anything about having the holy water, but it was always me who had it. Path sent a bunch of things, without question, and didn't ask for anything back. I guess my thinking is that he's done so much to help the village (gave us an ingredient for the holy water that I used, gave me an ingredient for the blinding potion, gave me both ingredients for eternal bond potion), so much more than several other people around here, it's hard to be looking at him as a wolf. |
