I hate joining a bandwagon late, and when the results are pretty clear; however, I don't see any point in not voting Anxiety. I'm not even remotely convinced that he's bad, but:

Vote Anxiety

Then this vote is crap. Vote for who you want. There's no reason to vote for somebody you think is innocent. None here. So vote who you damn well think is guilty.

The pack alpha is the role I don't have a good feel for at all, but I'm not sure that I want to speculate at all about it - any information released on this is more valuable for the humans than it is for us. I just worry about casting votes on this guy.

I'm going to be really bummed if the alpha was mckerney or tanglewood.

Not sure if anyone told you this but I am trying very hard to not be outposted by a dead guy. I have quite a few posts to go to catch up to you so if you would be so kind as to stop doing things like telling us how awesome the OG is for breadsticks, because really those things are like carbocrack, it would go a long way to helping me . Thanks

Just got back. Let me get caught up.

My guess is that we would know if we had.

[Tyrith]

I think we would have been told if the pack leader was dead now. Nothing else from me till after the vote.

I wouldn't know how. So I just say it and move on.

Well, it looks inevitable. Here are some of my final thoughts, and then I'm loading up UO and playing for a bit.

I don;t think hoops is bad, and I reread the attacks against him. Additioanlly, he's one of the few who beleives me, and I think it would be disrespectful to both vote for a guy I don;t really feel is an antagonist and a guy with my back.

Unvote Hoopsguy
Vote Tyrith

I'm rolling against a guy who came out swinging all of a sudden yesterday from nowhere. That seems odd to me for a guy who claims newness, like me, and hadn't done so before.

I'm obviously not a very good player. I hope to be someday. I'm sure that, over time, I'll learn the right words to say. Since I'm not that good, my loss is nothing special. At least, by lynching me, you'll be able to use the intuitions I revealed and maybe will be able to better use them than me.

I'll check back in later.

[Barkeep49]

Anxiety I don't think your as poor of a player as you think.

[st.cronin]

Unvote Anxiety
Vote Tyrith

Probably won't change things, but you never know.

[hoopsguy]

If Anxiety is revealed as a wolf, my compliments to the humans for stomping on us the first four days.

If the vote stands up the way that it is, what do you think are the chances that the antagonists ended up splitting their votes (versus all being on Anxiety)? This is one of those cases where they may actually end up drawing more attention by being on someone besides the runaway leader.

Like I said, I don't know if he's innocent. I don't have any idea who is, so that vote's just as good as any other that I could make.

[Lathum]

my bad about the night blade was killed, I forgot about night 0

[Barkeep49]

So Anxiety is still at 6 right?

I apologize. I misread it. I thought you said you thought he was innocent.

[hoopsguy]

Anxiety, I've had fun playing with you this game, in a weird, semi-confused sort of way up until last night.

And you are a serious jag if you do end up being human, as I invested a lot of time trying to defend you

I want a doctor to inspect this man to see if he strained himself patting himself on the back

What is a jag?

[hoopsguy]

Here is what I show for votes:

Anxiety - Alan T (998), Tyrith (1002), Barkeep (1081), Coffee (1085), Lathum (1207), Saldana (1316), Schmidty (1347)

Hoops - Sack (1246)

Tyrith - Hoopsguy (1236), Anxiety (1359), Cronin (1361)

[hoopsguy]

jag = jagoff = rat bastard

I guess that is a fun part of werewolf - trying to figure out if I'm messing with you with posts like that. But from where I sit right now it is a little frustrating ... and yes, I know I have brought it on myself based on previous games.

[SirFozzie]

I count the votes as hoopsguy does (damnit hoops, you couldn't have done that 10 minutes ago and saved me typing it up on my sheet? ) 7-3-1.

[hoopsguy]

Foz, just ask Have the votes sitting in Notepad for easy cut/paste and updates when someone flip-flops late.

this is bizarre, imo, you were on about anxiety for quite some time, and now all of the sudden you switched off....i think those of us that have backed you up since your reveal deserve a bit of an explanation here.

Easy, I think they both stink. Plus I'm fairly sure about hoops, and while I don't entirely agree with his analysis, I think it deserves consideration.

[saldana]

dola, you voted for anxiety on FRIDAY, and it was the second day in a row you voted for him...what possibly could have changed that made your switch logical>

meaning you think they are both bad guys or you think they are both bad voting choices?

[st.cronin]

Meaning I think at least one is a bad guy, and possibly both. They are suspects #1 and #1a in my mind right now.

[Barkeep49]

Seems like a Blade play. No criticism at all in that statement (and no sarcasm in that statment).

[saldana]

just bizarre, especially in the perspective that it was two posts after anxiety's vote for tyrith

[Barkeep49]

I don't think it's bizarre. I think he's setting himself up to take credit no matter how this goes down.

[Abe Sargent]

Well, its 10:01 by my clock. Good luck all! Catch ya next game

-Anxiety

[SirFozzie]

Deadline.

What the hell, let's take another week off.



No? You want it now?



You can't handle it now.

Ok. next post I promise.


Would I lie?

or to be able to say he didnt vote for another wolf if anxiety comes up good.

[hoopsguy]

Yes.

16.Blade6119 - Blasted Night 3

As the votes are tallied, Anxiety looks pleadingly at the image of the wizard.. and speaks.. IN A HUMAN TONGUE! "But.... But Boss.. you said we couldn't get in any trouble.."

The wizard snarls loudly. "Shut up you buffoon! Just because we have to sacrifice you doesn't mean you have to give us all away!"

The wizard waves his hands and while you want to wait to see if Anxiety will give up any more secrets, truth be told, you need very little urging to attack him. He fights poorly, and within seconds, is dying, blood pooling in the dark night air.

As Anxiety shudders his last breath, his body shimmers, and fur disappears, revealing skin, great rents ripped into it by your teeth and claws. A wave of palpable blackness rolls from his body, and settles over all of you. One trips and nearly knocks over another wolf who turns to nip at the clumsy interloper and bites the wrong target.. and it looks to devolve into a massive fight... but a bellowed command from the wizard is enough to temporarily stop you.

"You fools.. you've taken your Fate out of your own hands. Now with his death, I can't control the rules! Oh well. It will be fun tommorrow, all you fierce wolves hiding like rabbits in your little warren! It will be fun to see whose vote will doom one of the remaining wolves. Just remember, little wolves, you have won the battle.. but you may not know how to kill who you suspect tommorrow.. while I will have no such compunction about killing folks tonight! Till Tommorrow.... MWAAHAHHAHAHAHA!"

We are in Night 4. Actions due by 9 AM

[Tyrith]

Oh God. But I think third man in on Anxiety ought to buy me some credit now :P

[Schmidty]

Nice!!!!!

I am so smart!!!!!

[saldana]

well props to us for finally whacking a human. there is a lot in that narrative that needs some serious examination.

[hoopsguy]

Good job, guys. I officially suck at werewolf. And for one night I'm OK with that fact.

[st.cronin]

whoot

[Lathum]

well I think that was good, I guess we will find out what foz has up his sleeve tomorrow.

[st.cronin]

yes

more tomorrow, but #1 suspect for me now is LATHUM.

[hoopsguy]

You fools.. you've taken your Fate out of your own hands. Now with his death, I can't control the rules!

Changes in tie-breaker coming up?

5 minutes ago, your number 1 and 1a were anxiety and tyrith....where the helll did lathum come from?

[Tyrith]

I think he realized that I'm probably not a bad guy, seeing that I was on anxiety since Friday as part of the early dogpile.

[Lathum]

explain to me how that makes sense. I voted for anxiety 2 days in a row including the second one to vote for him day 3. I also cleared blade as an innocent long before his night killing.

[Lathum]

dola- Since you claim to have seer abilities then scan me tonight.

[SirFozzie]

BTW, while I'm not going to spill the beans on the new rules just yet, permit me this evil gloat. Remember when I said that I was coming up with new twists that had NEVER been done before in a WW game? This is one of them.

[Tyrith]

I suspect cronin doesn't expect to be alive tomorrow morning.
