Default Average Speed XVII Game Thread

GAME MECHANICS

Some ground rules:
Roles

21 players - 14 villagers, 5 wolves, 2 seers.
Seers are 3/4 seers in that they receive peeks on every night, with the exception of n1, n5, and n9.

Everyone should have received a PM with their role. If you did not, please let me know immediately.

Outside Communication

No talking about the game outside of the thread, with the exception of wolfchat, which may take place at any time throughout the day (24 hour wolfchat).

Night/Day

Night will be called at 10:00PM every night (9:59 good, 10:00 not good), except over the weekend, where there will be a single day consisting of both Saturday and Sunday, where night will be called Sunday night at 10:00PM.

Day will be called around 9AM every morning, so night actions are due by 9AM.

Night Actions

Wolves, please submit your nightly kill via PM. The last PM I receive (that closest to 9AM) is the one that I will accept as your final kill, so please make sure you're going to agree if you choose to send in multiple kills.

Seers, please submit your peek via PM. The first PM with a peek that I receive is that one that I will accept as your final peek, so please make sure to get it right the first time.

Posting

Standard rules about posts. No deleting of posts, and if you must edit, make sure that you aren't changing any content, just fixing tags, punctuation, etc., and make sure to note what the changes were.
Please don't post after night has been called. Accidents are bound to happen, but try to keep it to a minimum.
A killed player is allowed a single, brief non-content post after they have died, but please be sure to keep it non-content.

Majority Lynching
If, at any point, during any day, a single player has the majority of the votes, night instantly occurs, and posting should cease. Even if a mod is not around to call night, if you notice there is a majority, please call night yourself.
Under normal circumstances, multiple days in one won't be an option, but we'll see if there is a situation, where this would be an acceptable idea.

Mets has graciously offered to help co-mod, so he will be helping out with some countifs throughout the day, and calling night in the event that I can't be there.

IT IS NIGHT, DO NOT POST YET

The time is Friday, July 20, 2007.
The location is the Barnes and Noble in your local town.

You and your friends have been anxiously awaiting this day for almost two years.
Speculating, hypothesizing, even arguing about what is to come.
Yes, it is in but a few hours that all of your theories of the close of JK Rowling's epic series will be proven true or false. You can't wait to finally hold that seventh book in your hands. Yes, tonight is the night that Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows is finally being released.





You thought it would be a simple process of waiting in a line with 1000 strangers, laughing at people dressed up in costumes sillier than your own, and participating in a countdown just before midnight.
However, there are rumors. Rumors circulating the Internet. Some true, some false, yet either way, there are people seeking to take this most glorious of occasions from you. Seeking to ruin this experience for you. You, along with your fellow Harry Potter fans, must band together to hunt out and seek out these would-be spoilers, so that you can buy your book and read it in peace. Two among you have the ability to look into a soul and determine whether someone is truly a Harry Potter fan, or is simply here to ruin the experience for others.

Constant Vigilance is imperative in finding these evil Internet bunglers, so take all necessary precautions in hunting them down.

Good luck!

14 True Harry Potter fans (villagers), 5 Spoilers (wolves), two soul-searchers (seers)

IT IS DAY

11 to Majority Lynch, <font color="green">10:00 no good</font>

I am a villlager, will try to read voraciously and participate as much as I can.

Supine's Day 1 BEFORE NOON:

A lot of ppl cleared him for this, i cant be bothered to check if they were wolfs or villagers but it stands to reason that many may have been wolfs.

ok, enough chit chat

Sure. I don't see why you don't like me claiming villager. I'm simply honest. Look up the turbos I've played.

[/ QUOTE ]Well I do agree with clown it's a theoretically great strategy, but the problem is that all you have to do is claim villager ONCE as wolf and the whole thing is shot.

[/ QUOTE ]

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.

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

It will of course be useless after a while, but for now it's a viable strategy.

Well I'm out to work, I presume I will have heavy reading to do tonight. have a nice evening

Supine: the fact that you now contemplate deviating in the future makes it useless now. Do you see why?

[/ QUOTE ]

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.

what exactly is the strategy?

[/ QUOTE ]

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.

am i crazy or is this the same thing?

No you're correct that does not make sense. cut one line

probably not changing

[/ QUOTE ]

I expected this. You've struck me as the worst of the experienced players in pog from the few turbos we've played together. You also seem to vote me every single game i've been a villager (not sure if you have played with me when I've been a wolf).

On the plus side this makes me believe you are a villager, abysmal though

btw this is me spazzing out as a villager 10 hours before lynch, omg don't lynch me ever

im out
