I think it might be best if we just peek who we think might be getting lynched in the next few days. We aren't going to have any useful information until we can start putting peeks together with lynches, and if we all peek different people than that assures that we get the least amount of information about who is useful. But its still going to take at least 2, and possibly 3 or more lynches of people that we have seen before we can figure anything out about ourselves.

I think this is wrong - we should be following pretty normal seer strategy and peeking people that we expect to be alive near endgame. Since we don't have role reveal on death we don't actually ever have 100% peeked anything because we can't KNOW that someone is a real seer or an insane seer - they could just be a useless seer that ran well. The best information the village can have about anyone at endgame is that someone is either more likely or less likely to be a wolf based on previous peeks and the more times that player has been peeked the more likely we are to draw an accurate conclusion.

herbie,

if all you have are peeks of people who are still alive, you're basically useless.

Re: Hacker Attack (All Info Game Thread - Feb 19 Start)
 

i plan on peeking whoever is most likely to die in the first 2 days. traz/xorbie, consider yourselves peeked.

Re: Hacker Attack (All Info Game Thread - Feb 19 Start)
 

The rogue agents have just as much information we do on who's going to get lynched the next few days. If we try to predict, then they can use their powers to try to mess us up by making the same predictions.

Trying to gain an info advantage quickly is tempting, to be sure, but we can't do it in a way that lets those pesky rogue agents trap us.

But peeks in the early game are going to be fairly useless anyways because they will seem misleading and contradictory. It will probably be a week into the game before the information that we have has much of any value. If 3 people who could only be either regular or useless seers all peeked the same person as a wolf than that person should probably get lynched ASAP - that is when the peeks are going to become useful.

what if...

everyone peeks the same person tonight and we lynch him the following day. and likewise tomorrow. it should really narrow down your specific seer abilities, yes?

i wouldn't mind being one of the 2 if we decide its a good idea.

Re: Hacker Attack (All Info Game Thread - Feb 19 Start)
 

Also as my previous posts imply it is imperative that everyone post their correct peeks every day and not FPS them even if you suspect that you are a real seer and may get eaten for posting it (Luckay I am talking to you).
