i didn't actually read but I assume the point is the opposite of being intuitive and to inject logic (this is a phrase Jared Tendler uses)

I knew. It took me a good few hours to read it.

You would punish me for reading a few pages and seeing no thesis and most points speculative. You already know I can't comprehend the Dan Carlin style

Not punishing. There's nothing I can say. You suck at basic statistics. It takes purposeful effort not to suck. You can train yourself to think about games in a basic statistical manner and should. If you trained yourself to think about werewolf in a basic statistical manner, like Zeckhauser does with bridge, you would never again believe "The WW gods have it against FTR. They refuse to let anything that has >10% probability of happening actually happen."

[wufwugy]

Well, I don't actually believe that line about the WW gods. I believe what I said in game. I just don't know if I'm viewing it the right way.

Wuf, I feel pretty strongly that if I find myself in a spot where the leading wagons don't want to defend themselves or vote each other, I'm lynching both of them in quick order and I feel like I'll be lynching 1.1+ wolves

[Eric]

I hope you draw villager next time Eric you poor bastard

lol, you and me both!

Eric: It is a big problem that you have never experienced the game as a villager, so you don't know how to replicate that as a wolf. What I tried to do as a wolf, and I think if you check the last game, what Scourrge did, was to play up the "hey i'm new not sure how helpful this is, but this is how I see it..."

Agreed, I'm looking forward to being a villager one of these times.

I played this game assuming that the wolves were allowed to reveal to each other, but they weren't. Harsh lol

Eric, gabe, gator - did you guys figure each other out at all?

Nope, I didn't know gabe was gravy until he was killed. Didn't know gator was LP either.

Gravy not defending himself and also not voting Agua are two tells that I missed, but that's partly because of the anon-ness. All too often we have Agua's type of behavior and it's just an uninterested villager

It should be pointed out that none of this would have happened if Gator hadn't added steam to a wolf wagon when the only running wagons were two wolves. If you asked me before this game, I would say never in a million years would a wolf do that except by accident or major FPS, because all it does is ensure a wolf dies without adding much to the path for victory of the other wolves

This d1 saw no wagon of a villager with more than 1 bold until like four hours were left. I mean, c'mon! I'm still surprised. I guess anything is possible

I was reading den and thread in real time. I don't know the exact details but it became obvious very early that Gravy was taking a lot of heat and Agua wasn't going to be the world greatest wolf.

Gabe and Gator truly are democratic and team players as wolves but I think both needed to fight for self-pres there and bus Agua. Gator is in a brutal spot and, I'm not sure if he felt people were reading him as Gator at the time, but any villager worth his salt had to be suspicious of at least one of Agua/Gravy.

yeah amazing day for the village. As I said, really solid villaging, a nice turnaround from the last game.

[gabe]

fun idea, i wish i didnt fish the account stuff. sorry wolf bros

i didnt defend agua because that would be spotted too easily later. i definitely wanted to live but fighting for it is easier said than done. its easier to come up with words as a villager than it is as a wolf. (thats 3 wolf games for me in a row i think?)

i didnt post in a way to disguise who i was. i mightve done more to seem gabelike. people will at least consider logic behind posts on the gabe account, while gravyhog gets 0 respect

[baudib]

i thought there were 1 or 2 posts that were remarkably, uniquely Gabe-like.

I faced a dilemma regarding the gabe "mistake" as a non posting forum MOD. At the time duck had made his "sigh" reply so duck had read Gabes post and wasn't sure whether to soft delete gabes post and inform the Game mods so they could decide how to proceed or leave the post up. Since duck had obviously seen gabes post i decided that alll players should have the opportunity to see the same post that duck had. However the post was then hard deleted so i PM'ed Baudib to let him know as i think the no editing /deleting posts is about the most sacrosanct rule we have.

so basically should a non playing forum mod delete posts in the game thread. It also came up in the captcha padding posts and was the reason i started the thread for that and i PM'ed BID asking if he wanted me to move the padding posts out of the game thread.

This game was fun
