Well played village

I really thought you were gonna do it!

sKeith

well done village.

did you enjoy your first time as wolf on boards virt

You’re a sneaky one

Virtual wolf indeed!

quickbeam

I was seriously 50/50 on Virt and Strawbs. But as Virt voted for me it'd only have prolonged the agony if I'd chosen differently.

Virt defended himself better up to this morning. The work Strawbs put in the last hour or so tipped it back.

quickbeam

Sorry Molly. I was absolutely convinced you were a wolf this morning.

And was absolutely sure I was going to be munched.

We were really against the ropes for a while yesterday, Kolido was all but dead and I was on everyone's suspect list. I though I'd pulled it out of the fire last night after my ISO of Kolido and QB's ISO of me, but it wasn't to be:)

quickbeam

Proof that villagers do flip-flop guys!!

quickbeam

Also proof that I'm sh!te at this game. Love it, but still sh!te!

Loved it. It's actually a much bigger challenge than I thought. It's one thing being a villager looking for leads, but being a wolf looking for fake leads is even harder

Not a single use of the word 'brazen' anywhere

So, me posting a video of wolves howling for five minutes was not enough to spare me the munch

I loved this game. Really have to trust your reads when its vanilla

Did you? I didn't even clock that. We just saw someone who was getting way too close to the truth to be allowed to live

I would like to munch Sk, he is great reader of players and I believe has me pegged. Not to sound rude but I think the girls are easier to fool

Hmmmmmm

I had three tabs open, one to refresh the thread, and one for each potential vote for you or Strawbs. The only reason I voted you was because you voted first, and for me

If you had voted first for Strawbs, or if Strawbs had voted first for me, I would have voted for her. Voting first and for me absolutely won ye the game

That was fun. I haven’t acknowledged anyone in RL so far today lol

Noticed that alright. They're probably not wrong though. They nearly fooled me anyway.

Was surprised to see I'd voted first. I counted to 50 after my computer turned to 12.59 to leave it as late as possible. I must have counted too fast in the excitement.

I should have done it mississipily.

Baggly

Good game gang. Sorry for my absence!

Thank you to my comods for stepping in at short notice and for doing a great job.

I think a battle of the sexes would be great craic. Dunno how it would work though.

Thanks Pter & assistants for the game.

Kolido

Well done village. Virtual you player great, bad luck in the end.

Anything I said in the BR, was purely for the game.

Thanks, mod for a great game, really enjoyed it.

quickbeam

Thanks mods.

Thanks Strawbs for the suggestion of the game (can we go back to talking about how we write our letters now?)

Thanks everyone for making it funner than job-hunting

Virtanen

Yes, forgot to say, thanks to all the mods for helping run this game. Was fun to get my teeth stuck into a proper role - pun very much intended

Necro

Well played all. Was sure the wolves had it after hitting the seer night 0.

Keith did some stellar work, the no lynch was the game changer for the village imo, put them in a stronger position.

Well played girlies for pulling it out of the fire. Molly had Virt nailed I reckon so was a good kill this morning, really though Strawbs might vote QB.

Unlucky Virts and Kolido, ye both played well too!

quickbeam

BTW, that reminds me... had Kitten got a peek by that stage? And if so, who?

Nope no peeks

@Green&Red - I see you lurking there. Who was the super-obvious wolf you found?

Baggly

If you liked anything about this game don't forget the awards nominations thread.

If you have any feedback don't forget the feedback thread.

Thanks!

Yeah I saw that too. Did any of you think to get their answer sent to you in a PM?

Mollyb60

Long live the Spice Girls (as I shall call the 3 of us from now on)! That was a nailbiting morning, especially since no one would tell me who the last wolf was. I actually think that if Virt munched strawbs this morning QB would've totally gone for me as the last wolf and won the game for the wolves.

Very well played everyone. Thanks to the mods for setting it up. Having the small group was much nicer but actually created more pressure for everyone I think. It was a nice change.

Viva Forever Ladies!

Well it’s easy to say now but....
Kilido, screamed wolf I thought but it’s a lot easier when there’s no consequences to being wrong

Too cruel. Who’d you think it was?

Mollyb60

Virt.
My exact words to Pter and Necro were:
"QB is too self doubty and I think Strawbs is too calm"

Seeing as we have the mixer back, I’m off to bake cake.

Orange drizzle ok by everyone?

I even had Strawbs down as my placeholder kill before moving it to you :rolleyes:

I read through QB's posts last night, and thought that she had stronger doubts over Strawbs than she did for you

Ah well, 20/20 hindhight

duffman13

For a vanilla game with such a small player pool the post count was pretty high over should a short period. Sorry about day 1, I got completely bogged down and actually forgot about the game.

Well done every one, good games all round.

tritium

That was a really fun game to watch and (briefly) play in. Thanks mods and we’ll played village and wolves

@ Kolido & Virt - how did you find using discord over COP?

The major plus for me is the speed. You can see if someone posted on the app.

Not sure how well it works if you have to scroll through a full thread or you want to search for something.

Virtanen

Agreed, it was simple in terms of setting it up, but it's more so built for flowing conversation, not for referring back to previous comments, which the game would require

For mod questions, kill orders, things like that, no problem, you can set up a separate text channels on the server without issue. But for general discussion in the backrooms, such as among the wolves, I'd say you'd almost need a new text channel every day, just so you're not scrolling all day to refer back to previous information

are we allowed to lo lynch, that is the best ting to do tomorrow if we can.

6 left before lynch, we no lynch, 6 left before munch 5 after. with 2 wolves and 3 villagers.
it increases are odds of properly finding the wolves from 33/66 to 50/50 for last lynch, if we hit wolf, then its another 50/50 for game ending.
if we don't do no lynch tomorrow then those odds are 33/66 then 25/75.

If there was ever a time to argue for no lynch, its tomorrows lynch.

I also thought this was massively flawed (sorry Keith)
It completely ignores that the Wolves go from 33% of the village to 40%. They just needed one person who voted before them to not vote for either of them, jump on that persons nomination and they were home free

How often are these short games?

quickbeam

At first glance so did I (think it was flawed). It is so counter-intuitive to me. But, when I worked through the two scenarios the 25% v 13% proved it, and sK allayed my fears of the scenario you put forward (one person voting before the wolves). It was a super thought-out plan and one I wouldn't have thought of in a million years.

quickbeam

We've had a few spontaneous live games. I think this is only the second standard game that was sort of spontaneous. The first being the one after Community.
