OK, here is why SnDvls sticks out a little for me:
#1 Taken from my list on Post #575 Quote:
#2 Quickly follows Blade onto Alan T (post #946 for Blade, #951 for SnDvls). I suspect Alan T (based on my earlier comments, and vote for him in post #1011), so now someone that I'm also a little suspicious of votes for him in a point where he is putting him at some risk? This doesn't make sense to me ... #3 SnDvls removes his vote for Alan T in post #1077, pulling Alan out of the lead two hours before deadline. Now, I know this is me going conspiracy theory ... 1. They are both wolves 2. There is some concern that there is a coalition forming (with me in it) of survivors and that I'm blowing heat at Alan 3. A wolf is always happy to have a vote on a wolf early in the game if it doesn't mean anything 4. But a wolf doesn't want to put a wolf in jeopardy for no reason 5. And it is suicide for a wolf to help another wolf too late in the day 6. So the vote comes off early enough to not draw too much attention I recognize the odds of this being true are pretty damn thin. But this idea is running rampant in my head right now. |

dola - I should also add. He isn't in the lead, but he's far from out of trouble too. If I was trying to keep him out of trouble I would plead for everyone else to move off him. I just don't feel in my gut, which is what most of us are going on, that today is his day.

I don't have any problems if you want to vote for him. Just don't vote for me! In all seriousness though, right now the vote today is 3-3-2-2-1-1-1.. I think the wolves are trying to get us go in all kinds of directions, and we are waaaaay spread out right now. TOday's vote looks more like a day 1 vote to me than yesterday's did. |

you'll have to bear with me I'm not quite as good as others in doing this.
post # 548 you talk about roles that were heavly discussed on day 1, to me you are trying to get some roles out there to help the others post # 871 you ask for a summary of penny's guilt/innocence post #954 you ask again for a summary (to me both wolf moves, you act like you care, but don't quite following along or make it seem that way. the kicker that still sticks with me was the pile on vote on Mr. W |

SnDvls, offering up hints that you are Sawyer by saying "freckles" doesn't make much sense at all to me. I haven't seen enough episodes by now to construe any kind of in-game advantage that would give you, other than to distract from something else. So I'm not buying the "hints being dropped".
If you are Sawyer, then I would love to follow up with you on this after the game. |

Sawyer is sort of a tweener, he's with the survivors but he has a bad past and really hasn't moved off of his bad guy tendencies much. |

Sawyer's a con man, but has come through for people from time to time. (Shooting the polar bear, trying to make a move on the Others when they took Walt!) In the last episode, he conned just about everyone on the island into (with Charlie's help) taking control of the guns... he's definately a non-Other, and a player. Could fill any number of the roles in WW as I understand them. |

My thoughts are that a Sawyer character would make a good hunter (w/ the ability to strike back if attacked) or possibly Duke-type (w/ the ability to switch out--but that is a little more out of character).

Not much to go on really. He's been extremely inactive and he had a pseudo-bandwagon vote on Mr. W yesterday. I'm probably going to change it since it would be a wasted vote anyway, but I'm not sure which way to go yet. |

KWhit, was just going to post for the people who have the only vote on someone.
Obviously it is close enough where it could turn quickly, but right now the following people have one vote on them: KWhit (Celeval, post 775) Celeval (Saldana, post 788) Desmond (Schmidty, post 1018) I would hope those people are at least considering their options in terms of voting for someone with 2-3 votes. |

KWhit, I don't think he did. He was the first to post that he was a survivor, and he used the word "simple" in a conversation with me at one point, but I never saw the phrase "simple survivor" in any Blade post.

I just searched the thread, and the only times I see the word simple in Blade's posts are either somewhere that he quoted someone else saying it, or he used it in other context such as keeping something simple. |

Updated vote count for people who asked:
Desnudo 3 mckerney 3 Alan T 2 Raiders 2 celeval 1 Desmond 1 ALOT, and I mean alot of people have unvoted or held their votes back, which is making this look like its going to be really a fast finish. Could really go any direction right now (including people who have 0 votes) if a bandwagon starts fast enough. |

okay going with my gut and putting a deciding vote out there
vote Desnudo he still hasn't voted. I think he's saving it up to try and trap someone along with at least one of his other buddies. I could be wrong, but I've got too strong a feeling with this. |

Blade was very very clear in his trust in you - moreso than the group of us vouching for each other. He basically revealed everything to us but never gave us any indication as to why he trusted you. I find that strange. And then you vouch for him stating that he was in fact the first to use the term "simple survivor" which is completely false. And the use of that phrase is the only reason that I, Hoops, and Spleen are semi-trusted at this point. A fact that was stated very clearly by Hoops a few pages ago. I have no idea if I caught you in something, but it is certainly noteworthy. |

Hehe... I keep mixing up the 9 CST.
Two questions about WW in general - I've picked up from implications that ties are bad. Is that because we don't know what would happen? Also, something I've been thinking about - of what use is the Duke role, other than to move the vote off of the Duke himself? Essentially the ability to completely move the target during one day, if the person playing the Duke is convinced of someone's innocence/guilt? |

Correct. My point was that the use of the term "simple survivor" (by me incidently) was what created the trust between us. RA saying that it was Blade and not me who actually said it first is odd (especially considering Blade's unexplained trust of RA). |

Ties can be good, bad, indifferent, who knows. In some cases a tie could end up with a tiebreaker that might help reveal a fellow villager. In other cases it could end up in no one lynched at all, and you don't learn anything from the day (big advantage for the wolves).. Since I have been lynched 2 games in a row on this forum for advocating a tie or being involved in one, I will in NO way recommend us doing one here lol As for the DUke, usually its to protect themselves from being lynched yes. But it -could- be used if they feel very very confident that someone is being lynched unjustly and is an innocent villager. |

At this point I'm leaning heavily toward voting for Raiders. However, that looks like it might muddy the water and make a tie more likely. Does anyone else have the same concerns that I do about his Blade - simple survivor comments?

I guess I don't have a problem with you voting for Raiders if that is where your gut lies. Right now out of the 4 people who are most in the lynch race, its myself and 3 people I distrust... so I'm really interested in seeing where this goes. My only concern right now is with so many people holding back votes, this could easily end up in a tie on us. |

Its 4-3-3-2-1-1 right now with 5 votes out if I am counting right.. So right now anything is possible. You obviously being one of the 5 outstanding votes. At this point though I can't give you any reason why to not pick Raiders over the other 3, I'm just hoping however this ends we learn something from who votes a certain way at the end. |
