Mid-Range Game 25: Lowborn Intrigue
Straw replied to TheMightyLopen's topic in Sanderson Elimination
Personally, I doubt this for these reasons: 1. Joe didn't know he would be lynched. 2. Why would Joe immediately draw suspicion on a teammate, causing them to be a lynch target? 3. Joe could've waited a few cycles, and then added a vote on Jondesu if there was a cycle where Jon was a possible lynch target, but the other person had a few more votes than Jon. This would have had nearly the same effect, but would've had a much lower risk of Jon dying.- 433 replies

I personally think that we shouldn't try to read too much into votes on Walin. After all, Walin was confusing, tried to cause chaos in the village, and acted somewhat suspicious.- 433 replies

@Roadwalker In response to your last post last turn, it was because I was bored and felt like attacking Walin's post- 433 replies

@Walin I personally try not to guess the meta of team distribution, both because it takes away some of the fun and also because many GMs try to make team distribution hard to guess.- 433 replies

Straw replied to TheMightyLopen's topic in Sanderson Elimination
@Walin seems like you're either trying (and failing) to cause chaos, or you've lost your grip on logic. Why exactly would you want to reveal your teammates? Also, your "I'm an Elim so I'm more likely to tell. the truth" statement is fundamentally flawed. Your win condition is to defeat the village, which is often assisted by confusing the village, thus causing the Lynch to kill innocent villagers instead of Elims. This means that you are almost certainly trying to further your win condition instead of helping the village. Additionally, the suspicion of Joe's analysis is an argument between the "Joe is an Elim, therefor his reads should not be trusted." people, and the "Joe did correct analysis, making the assumption that if he died, people would assume his reads were incorrect, thus providing a boost for his team. Additionally, this has the benefit of helping him seem like a normal villager." people. Personally, I think that some of Joe's reads are false, but others are not, which would allow his reads to appear as a normal set of analysis (almost every analysis has some errors) while also creating a divide in the village after his death.- 433 replies

@Walin a couple points: 1. If you are an Eliminator, I doubt that anyone will trust your statement about who your teammates are. 2. The list of "teammates" is almost certainly incorrect, given that at least one of them (myself) is a villager. 3. If it actually is a list of your teammates, then you just ruined the fun of the game for almost everyone. 4. You mention "pandemonium" which probably wouldn't occur if the list contained any of your actual teammates. A Final Note: People have tried this before, and it didn't work. Nice try though.- 433 replies

@Drake Marshall I see a poke vote as a vote as a vote that is "poking" someone to do a certain action (post, retract a vote, explain reasoning, vote on someone, ect...) instead of out of suspicion that that player is an Eliminator.- 433 replies

@Walin My "weird" vote on Darkness is a pokevote on him. Voting on someone who votes on you is actually fairly common behavior.- 433 replies

Straw replied to TheMightyLopen's topic in Sanderson Elimination
The latter. I will be changing my vote from Jondesu to Joe. Joe seems to have participated in far more role swapping, which only helps the Elims. Additionally, there is the possibility that Joe is an Elim, and thus engaging inrole swapping will benefit him.- 433 replies

Based on @A Joe in the Bush's evidence, I will be voting for Jondesu. Role swapping benefits the Elim team by allowing them to know where their non-lethal poison will be best used.- 433 replies

@Araris Valerian your only reason for wanting me to be dead is my playstyle? That seems like sort of an Eliminator-ish thing to do. Then again, in other games we've played together in, you have seemed to have a problem with my playstyle. A small clarification: I tend to place my vote on someone near the start of the cycle, often with little justification. That is because I'm using that vote as an opportunity to see how the target of my vote responds, therefore adding valuable data to the game. Basically, think of my start of the cycle votes as poke votes.
