Tol-in-Guarhoth CIX - Ten Year Anniversary Game: Dead Thread

[Nogrod]

Just thinking then.

She gives us two wolves (more or less confirmed by their actions) on one Day (one already dead, one living as she declared them).

The next Day she gives us one innocent (who thence died by Night), more or less gives other three by ignorance (leaving them out of the list of where to find the wolves & jokingly defending them when asked) and as an extra one long dead innocent.

That makes 7 - among them both dead and living (at the time she mentioned them) or just four (2 dead, 2 living) but with fex. tp dying already on N2 it doesn't seem to make sense.

I'm not sure what to make of this.

If she is the Seer this is superb playing, walking the tightrope between giving as much info as possible (from 8 dreams) while remaining an enigma to the wolves... well to everyone.

Other option of course is that she is of a more sinister kind and either has some info or just got lucky with at least Lottie.

What kind of bothers me is that if we should read her posting as her revealing 7 roles it's interesting only two of them were dead when she claimed them (Mac the Night just before and tp on the first game-Night). With half the population here in the Dead Thread you'd think the dreams would have fallen a bit more evenly (even if the seer of course can decide every Night not to pick any already dead) - or maybe the maths work in some other way my intuition would tell me.

Also it is interesting that she first wails very strongly the lack of information and suddenly starts to produce it, a lot.

I hope she is the seer but I'm not totally convinced she is one (that's good actually if she is one, it means she is playing it well).


Btw. could it be possible there was such a role-messing that the seer would be a different person every Night but there would be one mouthpiece who'd receive all the dreams? Well, of course it is possible, but could it explain something, like the lack of a more "normal" seer-revelation?

That's an interesting idea for future werewolf games: The seer doesn't pick their own dreams, but others do it for them. The people who send the dreams would have no reason not to reveal who they picked (unless, for example, you give the power to the most recent wolf-kill), which would add some new mechanics to the game.

Should note that down, certainly. If you want to Mod sometime soon yourself, you can even use it...

And forgot to mention, I am basically also for checking Lalaith toNight. My preferences are basically in the same order as Nog listed them.

I might like to go to sleep in something like two hours, so if anyone has any major ideas why we shouldn't check Lalaith, please come forwards before that for the next two votes, if going to her, will seal our choice.

Now it can be changed (4/10), with one more there is the haunted chance of a tie, with two more votes it's a done deal.

YesterDay could have been a disaster (thanks guys for handling it that well!), and toMorrow might be worse especially if we have more than two known wolvsies in here by then. I second Agan - Nilp my dear, do scold them for us if you go back, won't you?

Personally, I really hope they will notice something was wrong and not repeat that mistake. Wishful thinking maybe, but, hey, there is always hope.

*ahem* Same for me. You actually at least went to sleep at the time you announced.

Indeed. I don't know what it is that people always seem to assume that if a Seer (or somebody who claims to be something similar) lists someone among the people she thinks innocent, they automatically assume it is a dream. It annoyed me mightily sometimes how people were interpreting my "dreams" in this game. Of course, usually majority of that is Wolf-work.

Actually, not. In fact, I have absolutely no idea where she had picked that from. You'll have to ask her yourself (hopefully when you come back to the Living, for instance).

Or if she and Lottie are packmates; that would be literally a killer. But let's hope not.

Oho! Well some time ago I have been thinking about something similar, but then I really think it's a bit overcombined. But then again, what Nerwen says is already fairly overcombined.
