    Yeah, probably so.
    I'm now wondering- why is it that you'd rather have someone else choose?

    I don't really like either wagon. Captain Cap's silence on the wagon (not saying his vote is fishy, just his subsequent silence) makes him feel... of... ta me.

    Right, I should speak up first.

    It's kind of an arbitrary decision from the biggest wagons- in this case I went for the one that is usually the least online.
    I like that Valmark is starting discussion, but why poke a quiet player if your goal is to get people to talk?

More wolves seems very unlikely, unless we're in a situation like the townies have powers and the wolves have none.
    IMO two wolves is more likely, to avoid the awkward case where town gets lucky and lynches the only wolf D1. But this is an AV game, so who knows, I'm sure there's some unusual roles around somewhere.

    The four-way tie is interesting but I'm not sure how much information we can get out of it before we see some flips. Could be that the wolves were fine with all the targets, could be they were only fine with the first person to hit 2 votes, could be they wanted the lynch target to change but decided that with more than half of D1 left it wasn't worth drawing attention by changing votes, could be Valmark is a wolf who wanted the lynch target to change...

    Not exactly a poke, being a 3 votes wagon- if nobody's talking it doesn't really matter and with it ending up becoming a lynch being a real possibility I'd rather go for one of those who are usually less active (we are not yet at a stage where we can take consistently more info from somebody else, I think).

    I don't really have much to say at the moment. The only thing that caught my eye is JeenLeen unvoting The Outsider (and not vote anyone else), but Valmark is already questioning him on that.

    I wanted to wait until the morning to answer this to give others time to vote/respond before I answer. I wish more had been said, but I don't have time to wait around and still make sure I get this in before Day's end (if, as I think, the Day is ending today.)

    Basically, I know I'm Town, so I'm more curious leaving that to others to see if someone makes a play to save The Outsider or PartyOfRogues. If either is a wolf, my leaving my vote off for now should potentially make the wolves more nervous and more active to act to save their buddy. (I didn't want to mention that while unvoting, but since attention has been brought to my actions, it's probable enough the wolves are thinking about it, so I might as well say why.)

    It was also that (in the scenario that both The Outsider and PoR are Town) I think PoR's death will give more intel regarding some players than The Outsider's death will give. Since (as you pointed out and I overlooked) my vote put The Outsider in the lead to die, I hoped by that unvoting PoR would get back in the lead once The Outsider did a self-preservation vote.

    Is this correct?
    PoR currently has 4 votes on them, with Captain Cap and The Outsider at 3.
    If I put a 4th vote on Captain Cap, PoR can do a self-preservation vote on Captain Cap. So Captain Cap dies, but we don't get much info from the death.
    If I put a 4th vote on The Outsider, PoR is still up for lynch as "first at 4", and actions by others could yield interesting info. E.g., if anyone votes The Outsider to save PoR, or moves to the PoR wagon to make it less likely a last-minute vote lynches The Outsider.

    So putting my vote back on The Outsider.
    Seems the best way to gain info, if anyone responds in an odd way.
    I will check back sometime before 2 pm in case my putting my vote there didn't do what I thought it would, but otherwise I don't plan on changing my vote. Really, right now I hope PoR gets lynched to yield info, but I'm willing to risk The Outsider getting lynched in hopes of more info.

    Ok, that makes sense. My understanding of your original post was that you were hoping for PoR in particular to say something, in which case it didn't make sense to pick someone quiet. But I see that your post asked for anybody to talk.

    Vote Count:

    PartyOfRogues (4): Book Wombat, Captain Cap, Valmark, The Outsider (1°)
    The Outsider (4): Caerulea, Elenna, PartyOfRouges, JeenLeen (2°)
    Captain Cap (3): Libro, CaoimhinTheCape, Xihirli




    So... not much is happening. If PartyOfRogues was a wolf we would have probably seen more effort in defending him.

    Is there anyone for a quick new train on someone else? If I'm not wrong we still have 2.5 hours.

    - - - Updated - - -

    @CaoimhinTheCape: You haven't barred yet your first vote on Libro.

    - - - Updated - - -

    @PartyOfRouges: Same, first vote on Xihirli still not barred.

    Come on guys!

    - - - Updated - - -

    I will count the first uncrossed votes I find from you, so don't come crying to me if I counted the ones you didn't intend to vote because you didn't cross out the old ones.
    This is actually the true count if PartyOfRogues and CaoimhinTheCape don't undo their previous votes:

    PartyOfRogues (4): Book Wombat, Captain Cap, Valmark, The Outsider
    The Outsider (3): Caerulea, Elenna, JeenLeen
    Captain Cap (2): Libro, Xihirli
    Libro (1): CaoimhinTheCape
    Xihirli (1): PartyOfRogues

    - - - Updated - - -

    @JeenLeen: Maybe you should cross the UNVOTE too, just in case.

    Just crossed out my first vote, though I can't say I'm exactly on board with voting Captain Cap... I just don't have anyone else I particularly want to go after?

    I'll be around in the next 2 hours before deadline (mostly) so if anything changes I should see it. Just not sure there's much to do.

    That's fair, but you are also now defending him (in a way) and looking to change the vote. Admittedly I have a town read on you atm so I'm not going to push it, but you are doing what you're saying no one has done to protect PoR.

    Done.
    With how things stand now, PoR is still up for lynch, right?

    - - - Updated - - -

    That is, the "done" is I've striked-through the UNVOTE, so my The Outsider vote (after PoR reached 4 votes) should be active.

    - - - Updated - - -

    For all of us who forgot (or 'forgot') to strike-through our votes: we've had plenty of games where the strike-through is appreciated but still optional. I genuinely missed that it was necessary for this game. I'll (for now) give the same benefit of the doubt to the others. But we should keep in mind it might be something sneaky.
    And I understand y'all should keep that in mind for me, too, though I don't see how what I did could be sneaky, since it seems whether I was UNVOTE or The Outsider won't change the results, at least if no other votes change.

    I believe so. I suppose we'll see in about an hour if that's still the case. Maybe PoR and CtC will deal with their vote issues too, and that'll shift things a bit.

    Is not that I'm really pushing to save PartyOfRogues, I didn't even move my vote when I made the proposition, because if I have to choose between him ad The Outsider (and this situation hasn't changed), I would lynch the former, as he's been less active.
    Even Elenna sort of defended him in relation to Valmark poking, but I didn't bother to mention her because that's not what I would consider a significant effort.
    I mean, what you make is a reasonable point, but I don't really agree.

    So does that mean a vanilla villager?
    Also, if they were a mason, would we have found that out (as a power) or would that be something not revealed?

    If so, well, I guess PoR did a good thing in taking the hit. I was wondering why they weren't claiming anything (even if fake-claiming as a wolf), but a vanilla town dying is better than a powered town.

    Fair point. Let's wait until day. Night chatter is usually a good thing to avoid, and I don't see a benefit to discussing it sooner.

    I think from the opening post it should be removed that ties are decided by who first reaches the vote count then (to avoid further confusion).

    Or was that purposefully left like it (since the unknown random factor was... Well, unknown)?

    It's being handled the way it was intended to be handled when I originally made the recruitment thread. Bit of a bastard narrator move, but eh.

    All the details of their role that you need were revealed. They are a villager, and I've already said that I reveal roles on death. If there's not more information than that given, I think you can go ahead and take a guess at whether there is more information to be had.
