also i think that killing zurvan is incorrect there because chim was left with 2 new players and himself; new players are not likely to think of killing a non-confirmed.

if both the other unknowns were regulars that have been playing for many months i like the play a lot more

Oh, yeah, that was my big problem with killing me (besides preventing me from getting you lynched, ldo)

There's no way in hell zen should've been lynched after I die. He never never never kills me as a wolf. Ever. *sigh*

Here's the deal. I needed a situation I could dominate discussion and make things go as I saw fit. I also needed a situation that was confusing. What I said today is true, the village goes on freaking auto pilot when the seer comes out. I was a target in that auto pilot run. I had to stir it up somehow, and at the very least make people rethink things. Also, I needed players that weren't as vocal as you. I needed responsive not dominating players.

I know why you did it. I figured it out after reading the thread [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

I am surprised that zen got lynched, though.

It was over a year before I was in one, then I got 3 in 2 weeks.

It's not all it's cracked up to be.

Because it's not all that common of a spot.

In a game with 21 players:

a) you have a 1/7 chance of making it
b) it's little better than even money (assuming both sides are balanced) of the game making it that far.

So it's like hitting a gutterball. Have you played 13 or more long games (average of 21 players per) in 1.5 years?

With a few notable exceptions (soah) wolves tend to bring inexperienced players to the end-game. Right or wrong, they feel the new players have a better chance of making a mistake, I think.

I really, really didn't like lynching Zen last night.

I just couldn't fathom being in a final 3 with Epi and Zen, and I was 99% sure that Epi wasn't a wolf after the way he played last night. I couldn't have kept my vote on Chim, so I felt like, by killing Zen instead of Epi, the logic was pretty good that:

- If I got NK'ed, Chim almost had to be the wolf. I had re-read Epi to get some discussion going after the Zurvan lynch and found some wolfiness, and when he switched near night I was definitely worried. But still... Epi doesn't leave FMX alive as a wolf going into final 3...
- So, if I was left alive, I had to believe that Chim would hope I'd lynch Zen on the last day.

I think killing Zen was the key to making it easier on FMX, I just had to hope that he saw through all the wolf stuff and trusted that the logic would be correct. Of course, if Epi levels like that as a wolf for the last day, he's incredibly ballsy and deserves to win.

Yep, if I'm a wolf I want all experienced players gone. Less chance of convincing them that everything they saw was just a ruse.

I need to work on looking less wolfy though, obviously. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I find this phrase hilarious.

Nice job, mets/chuckles/FMX. Chim in a losing effort, too.

gg people, cheers to durron. Messed up badly day 4, if I'm going to fake seer I should have thought a bit more about the post, although I doubt I make anything more credible in any case
