Ten Year Anniversary Game: Living Thread - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Thinking about the "outs". And what I should do.

We are only going to get opinion from the dead from now on. As a source of factual information that well is dry. Even if the Ranger was killed last night his or her return tomorrow can only tell us about the dead. Only the dead wolves know more and thy aren't likely to tell.

It all hangs on Boro really. and now I see he has posted .

I don't think the village has the luxury of lynching Boro on spec. The wolf is only going to pick off known ordos rather than fellow suspects and you can't rely on the ranger picking the right one even if still alive. And you can't deny Boro has been most successful. Couldn't really have been more helpful.. if you want to kill him before you know it is necessary, when there is still a wolf there well you probably deserve to be eaten aux petits oignons...

Save that it is going to be obvious if it gets to that point that the surviving unknown is a wolf.

Anyway there doesn't seem any really good reason not to follow my heart and vote Mc Caber. Don't have to give Kuru a decision about a vote if Boro can kill me anyway.

Why not tie it up now and score one for the Europeans.

Boro... if I vote Mc Caber, Kath pretty much has to for self preservation. If you did too it fits with your plan. If I am right and you are honest game over.. if not then well you are welcome to kill me tonight.

Worst case it would be a tie if all the others voted for me or Kath and the dead could decide or not.

Ok, so you're saying if we both vote for McCaber, that would force Kath too for self-preservation? It would also force McCaber to vote for self preservation. Makes sense.

I'll be leaving for the rest of the day in approximately 3 hours. That seems like it would be the best option for me. I'll ponder it some more, and as I said, my vote has to come within the next 3 hours. So, that will give the living plenty of time to decide what they want to do with me. They've heard my offer.

I really don't have anything to lose since between lynching, modfire and your fangs most options are fraught with peril. And I think I am right

Gives the Dead time to choose.

Consider the offer I've made today. If you want to see this thing home by finding the final wolf on your own so be it. I personally think what a fantastic return it will be go with this:

Quote:

Lynch 1 unknown today. I kill one. Wolf targets Shasta or sally, and successfully kills one. Leaving Shasta/Sally, me, and 1 unknown the next day. We all self-vote and then let the dead decide who they want to empower. Now what could be a greater end to this anniversary reunion than that? Am I right?

And actually if it's the wolf we lynch today than there will only be my kill for one of the other unknowns, and it's all over. If not than I think what a great end it will be to tie the votes on the final day and let the dead decide.

++McCaber

I'm out. It's all on you (Shasta, sally, Nilp) to decide.

Edit: changing vote to highlight
