There are two gimmicks in this game that I've noticed. To come out firing about them seems silly I believe. It's not as though I'm doing anything in character, with the exception of that one joke reply to clown's joke of a first post.

firing at gimmicks is just a cop-out d1 vote, like voting for a brand-new-player, or voting for me or bobo or a few others d1

i'm confused why we have only 3/4ths seers this game..

this game: 5 wolves, 14 villagers, 2 3/4 seers
as8: 5 wolves, 16 villagers, 2 full seers starting n1
as7: 5 wolves, 16 villagers, 2 full seers
as6: 5 wolves, 16 villagers, 2 seers (1 starting n1, other n0)
as5: 5 wolves, 18 villagers, 2 seers
as4: 5 wolves, 18 villagers, 2 seers
as3: 5 wolves, 14 villagers, 2 seers


as u see, those other as games had MORE villagers (except 3), same wolves and better seers

[/ QUOTE ]ASXIV used a full seer and a half seer with 21 players. ASXV had 21 and used two three quarter seers, whcih works out to the same number of peeks with.

Its obviously just going to cause distractions, which is anti-village, so I'll just reveal now. Also I'll probably be fairly utr which makes it unlikely anyone will guess at who I am.

<- Eskimo.

Kenny feel free to do what you want.

Like I said, I never intended to hide who I was. Once I had signed up I figured it might add some fun to play readless, but its obviously just annoying people so I'll fully reveal.

Shorty - I pretty much never fake who I am as villager, I probably fake a reasonable amount as wolf tho. Just fwiw.

Nicholasp27 07-30-2007 10:42 AM

Re: Average Speed XVII Game Thread
 
basically, it just means both seers must come out d5

they'll have 4 peeks each + 2 of them = 10 confirmeds

by d5, 8 people will be dead, so 13 remain...so 10/13 confirmed will be lock

so the n5/n9 missed peeks don't really affect us

the n1 does tho

its more odd that he called clowns post a joke, and didnt vote clown, and his definition of joke would make it appear he would be even more inclined to vote clown

I understand this and have so far never claimed villager first post as a wolf (been wolf three times), so for this game I think it's a great strategy. I will evolve eventually, but I'd like to play my first long game in a straightforward manner.

Nez477 07-30-2007 11:02 AM

Re: Average Speed XVII Game Thread
 
I get more and more comfortable with Kenny as my first wolf read

And Supine, don't worry about it, my first inclination as a villager is to say "I'm a villager" as well so everyone knows

But how does everyone know? I've said I'm a villager as a wolf before, so it's moot and means nothing

Unless you are saying you'll never lie to us when you say it, which is, well, kind of bad for your metagame

nevermind, Kenny is probably not a wolf

I see your point, but my way of progression would more likely include stop claiming villager even if I am a villager, to stop claiming villager altogether, until finally alternating between claiming villager and not doing so in a hopefully random and unreadable way. For this game I can assure you my line of true villager claims is unbroken. I'm sure it will become obvious later anyhow.

Since you can see that I've been a villager every time I've claimed to be, you would reason it is more likely for me to be a villager this time as well. I do realize I eventually have to change, but see above post.
