Glad the game ended before my classes begin again though

That is true. And there isn't a player I'd rather get paired with than redwill.

I was hoping since I've brought people back as green, blue, and Indy, that there might be some hope for you in it. If only silentom had followed through after his see.

Man, I had the RP's pegged when I died, albeit for the wrong reasons. Awesome game obhave, had a lot of fun while it lasted, and take a little pride in extending discussion after redwill outed me.

I was napping, thank you, on night 8. My dreams of a frozen adult beverage on my mind. Gin and Juice on my mind and my mind on Gin and Juice.

Why did I die, and by whom? No mention of my rubbers in the recap.

As a true blue, I was a few hours behind due to the time zone. Work travel caused an extra border to play. My absence is my issue.

You all played a great game. I am still trying to learn. I would have sweated being on the clock, because this game would have taken forever.

obhave, thank you for the chair. I cheated by looking online for help. Crazy, but some banker in Nigeria that play Warz will give me $100,000 if I put up $4,000 in his entry fees.

He owns the next game here. Please, entry fee $200 for the 20 players.

I killed you because you were obviously blue, you hadn't voted for willeyeam (who I had to try to frame the next day) and you are also an unpredictable voter.

I killed MR25 because he's mean to me.

Postby **MR25** » Thu Jan 26, 2017 10:30 am

I figured that much out

Postby **dodint** » Thu Jan 26, 2017 10:32 am

There was a point at which, and I can't remember if it was PM or not, where someone threw your name out as the angel. I figured I was going down and wanted to take an RP with me, if possible. Without a recruit my best outcome was stalemate.

Bad move, but too late.

Did the baddies know Om was the seer before this post?

We did not. I was pushing for Columbia or Hockeynut at that time.

@obhave, we were curious... if we were to try and recruit a green, would it have went through?

Postby **slappybrown** » Thu Jan 26, 2017 12:16 pm

astounding

Postby **MR25** » Thu Jan 26, 2017 12:26 pm

Yeah. I'm surprised you guys didn't get it when he voted c2i out of nowhere.

Postby **MR25** » Thu Jan 26, 2017 12:27 pm

(yes I understand he didn't see c2i until that night, but I figured it would've set off alarms.

Postby **Willie Kool** » Thu Jan 26, 2017 12:42 pm

Yeah. I'm surprised you guys didn't get it when he voted c2i out of nowhere.

It was actually a combination of the two. Since the vote and post were only 14 minutes apart, I saw both posts at the same time.

Your "why?" question to his vote is what got me thinking that maybe you were the angel. We could kill and protect (or one time recruit) each night, so I thought maybe you got a protect each night plus a one time roleblock.

No, recruits fail on any role player only work on blues.

It was kind of odd... I was completely playing this game as a villager during the time I was alive. Looking for baddies.

The idea as an independent was to offer up baddies to the village, get them killed, then turn on the village itself. I've done that before. But it was still strange to be talking baddie-hunting with MWB knowing that that wasn't our primary goal. It just didn't progress to the more interesting turning-on-the-village part, 'cause I was killed.

Speaking of which, I was genuinely surprised when I was killed at night. MWB had a night protect and asked if I wanted protection. No, definitely not. I didn't expect the baddies to come after me, 'cause:

1) I think they had an indication that I was independent, yet didn't know my powers. Maybe I had a night protect power or was immune to night kills; and
2) I had already called out CBear, WK, and c2i. Generally, as a baddie, you resist killing people that have called you out.

So kudos to WK and c2i for going ahead and killing me. That was taking a risk. I didn't expect that. I don't think I would have done that.

Fortunately for them (in the short term), the village took too long to kill CBear and didn't pick up the WK/c2i thing for several days. Haha. All's well that ends well.

Postby **count2infinity** » Thu Jan 26, 2017 4:44 pm

I selfishly didn't want to kill Silent Om because I knew that would be the death of me, but it had to be done.

Postby **count2infinity** » Thu Jan 26, 2017 4:46 pm

Also, we had a thought that you may have had some sort of bomb thing where if we killed you we would die as well. We decided to risk it and I sent in the kill and protected myself hoping that it wouldn't kill me.

Postby **redwill** » Thu Jan 26, 2017 5:51 pm

Oh, and I wanted to mention that the reason I was on c2i so early was because of Gaucho's post (page 2):

You ask very unusual and suspicious questions, young man.

Gaucho had him Day 1. Probably got Gaucho killed.

Postby **MR25** » Thu Jan 26, 2017 5:54 pm

Eh... that's kind of a reach, but not surprising, considering most of the game here have been so quiet that anyone actually attempting to participate is seen as a bad thing.

Postby **count2infinity** » Thu Jan 26, 2017 6:03 pm

Yup... the two biggest reasons I stopped playing were:

1. People would just coast through, stay under the radar and not participate regardless of red, green or blue.
2. Too many people were focused on living rather than helping the village win.

Call it a reach if you want, but I went with it. What pissed me off a little is that few others were willing to go with it. I've been wrong so many more times than right, but you gotta push it, if only for the activity and the fun value.

That's what's missing.

The PM with my role was that my goal was "to survive, unseen."

Sorry, no can do.

Postby **MR25** » Thu Jan 26, 2017 6:47 pm

I was referring to you saying Gaucho had him pinned.

In hindsight it looks good, but at the time, it is what I was referring to.

Postby **MR25** » Thu Jan 26, 2017 6:50 pm

Because, arguably, that's part of how we have what we have in the state of our warz. The talkative ones get killed early and then the game stagnates until one person tries to rah rah everyone into participating...

Then they get killed for it.

Postby **MR25** » Thu Jan 26, 2017 6:52 pm

I mean, that's why I complained about the Election Warz game at the end. It was hard to play that one as a red because you want to try to be under the radar (without arising suspicion), but no one was doing anything, so even if I had tried to start a vote on someone, I would have needed to defend myself because I had the gall to try and start a vote.

Can't be under the radar when everyone else is already there.
