Werewolf: Hunt for Necromancers - GAME OVER! Post #3469 - Page 43

Vince · 06-23-2006, 03:55 PM

I think that he's actually going after Lathum...which may or may not clear Fouts at the same time.

Barkeep49 · 06-23-2006, 03:56 PM

I want to say, in my defense, if I had remembered that dubb was going to do his scan today I'd never have said it was going to be a slow day.

Imagine how long this thread would be if Blade, hoops and I were still playing.

This game makes me laugh sometimes. Lets all lynch a guy way before he gets in the thread to defend himself. It's like throwing a poison dart at someone and watching them die for 2 days. I suppose it's much easier to assume guilt than wait on proof.

Kind of like:

3.) Disease (two days to live - cannot be stopped by bodyguard). Available 2x per game.

Fouts what could you do to possibly change our minds? I mean let's look at it this way:

There are two ways for a new player to be introduced into the game. One by a good player and one by a bad player. The good player is dead. Which leaves...

How do you explain that you could be good? I grant you it's a pretty sucky position to play, but there you have it.

dubb93 · 06-23-2006, 04:03 PM

Anyone see anything more recent...like today or yesterday on Lathum. If I proceed my my can of 591, it assumes what he knew at the time...not right now.

SnDvls · 06-23-2006, 04:05 PM

why doesn't Lathum repost it again without quoting it...or would that be out of the rules?

Vince · 06-23-2006, 04:05 PM

Man, you're killing me with these delays! I have to leave soon, and I want your info before I vote

hoopsguy · 06-23-2006, 04:05 PM

Fouts - I'm sorry about the dagger. I'm a dick who made bad assumptions in that game (and many games after that as well ...)

Easy. There are multiple good and bad guys in the game. It's as simple as that.

I dont understand why its a big deal if its what he thought at the time.. I mean if he was a villager then, wouldnt he be one now? Or do people think a conversion was involved? I think this post was after he made the statement about being scanned that I have issues with right?

I think that would be out of the spirit of the role...it's not meant to force people into saying things. It's supposed to be used throughout the course of the game.

I think the problem will lie with his statement that he is a "simple villager".

If he is not a simple villager then his statement is false. Then do we believe that he is an Egyptian with a role or is he a necromancer?

Fouts not sure if you saw this, but I'd love for you to put together, with the information we already know, a list of how the players were divided up assuming two good gusy who could summon you that would be balanced. right now I'm having a hard enoguh time coming up with a balanced set, from what I know, with just one mystic, let alone two. I asked this question earlier (changing Where to What) and I would love to see you answer it

This could be what he is hinting at. From the rules.

Quote:

95%+ of the rules are listed below. The remaining 5% will be realized over the course of the game, depending on actions and surviving roles.

Vince · 06-23-2006, 04:10 PM

Before I leave...even though Fouts has already publicly claimed the Avatar, is it possible that he is the Prophecy? There's nothing in the rules about him being introduced later, but it is very vague about the prophecy to begin with.

Abe Sargent · 06-23-2006, 04:10 PM

For example, to clarify my statement:

Maybe he was summoned through the use of an item.
Maybe he was summoned officially two nights ago but takes a day to finish, even if the mystic is dead
Maybe there are multiple mystics

Of course, the greater liklehood is that he's the mummy. Sure, he may not be, there are ways he could have appeared as the Avatar, but the money says he is.

To be fair, if he is, it was still a great move by the Head Nec becasue now we waste a day killing off someone we believe to be a mummy instead of digging any deeper.

Anyways, I've decided to trust Dub for the moment, although I still find his actions just shortly to be VERY suspicious and he has left my trust circle.

Unvote Dubb

Well, that is going to take some time. For now - every game has at least 2 seers, right?. The fact that a seer has to forgo his visions for 3 days to summon an Avatar, is balancing enough to me.

What are you talking about? Most games don't have two seers. If you're talking about dubb and Blade you're only reinforcing my point: all known advantages seem to favor the good guys.

Tyrith · 06-23-2006, 04:14 PM

God, another six pages, catching up now.

Abe Sargent · 06-23-2006, 04:14 PM

And Barkeep, I mentioned this once, but I want to reiterate. We've all assumed that there are a small (4-5) number of necs and we've gottten lucky in offing two. What if there are more and that is why we've taken out two quickly? Having more necs is a way to offset two mystics.

I think all have only had 1 except for the game I ran. I think that was the first time that two seers were introduced, but I could be wrong.

dubb93 · 06-23-2006, 04:15 PM

If I do that earlier post, it forfeits all information he may have gained since that moment thus at the moment I'm looking at this post

Quote:

dubb- Thats an interesting theory but why on earth would I call that kind of attention to myself. If I was the head necro I would keep my mouth shut knowing the avatar was going to be killed no matter what. I would have nothing to gain by making that kind of play on a day where the lynch candidate was so obvious.

Does anyone think this is a better scan target? He is trying to decieve me here? Does he know the avatar is going to be killed? Does he have anything to be gained by making the play I described?

How big are you talking about? 6? 8?

Dubb that looks like a better one. Sure. Go for it. Let's get some results while we can still have time to correct a wrong (har har har) if Fouts is (har har har) innocent.

Seeing how we only have had 2 night attacks that means that the necs have been searching for one another over 4 nights. If there are 6 or 7, which I highly doubt, don't you think they would have found each other by now and at least have 1 night kill.

Well, I didn't design the game. I'm not sure what you want me to do. I have told you my position.

I was thinking of the vampire games from last year. They had 2 seers, and that got me killed right quick. I should have said most games I have played in have two seers.

I am a meannless villager and the seer is to valuable to us.

Or alternatively that more than 1, or 2, would be willing to take a risk and try and kill somebody on their own?

Abe Sargent · 06-23-2006, 04:20 PM

Obviously, I don;t knw, but I was think 7 - around a third.

BTW, that'd also be why so many dead Egyptians have roles. With a smaller number of Egyptians, there'd be a larger percentage of them with roles.

Let's look at a few disadvantages the Necs have:

Their big gun, the Mummy, loses to our big gun, the Avatar.
They don't know who each other is at the beginning. As we've seen, taht's given us a huge tempo advantge over them as we have early momentum.
The EG role is much more powerful than normal.
The Necs don't win when they get even numbers, they only win when they eliminate all Egyptians.

And consider, for a minute, that we have two mystics.

How many Necs in this group? My guess, around a third.
