Well, that's just it, for 80% of the game, he WAS absolutely trustworthy...
Just he didn't change behavior once he got converted.
That is the sign of a werewolf play master.
Show no change, no matter what you are.

Oh, if I start to play serious and often, I'm going to do horrible things to my likes to posts ratio...

I'm fine with mine :D, need some likes?
the question is, do likes mean anything?

I never trust the guy who writes walls of text. It's simple, he's trying to cover himself in complicated words so people don't notice him.

Or people who talk in riddles.

The riddler is never taken by the thought of his... oh, never mind.

Except that it talking in riddles gets you noticed and killed before anyone else. Shame my power hadn't been used on two people, according to Euno, they would have met every night by force.

I would have sent a message to every one of them, showing the names of every other one of them.
No time for them to actually comunicate anything.
Thus your followers would know how far along you where, but never YOU knowing how far along you where, until ... a post of you winning.

Note without the power stripping conversion it makes the pied piper the least dangerous form of the cultist.

Most dangerous is the suicide cult version.
Most likely to win is the mentor and aprentice verson.

Bwahahahahahahah, I played you all like a fiddle from Day 1 Day 5! Which is only slightly a lot less impressive!

I still desperately want to know why the wolves killed PeggleFrank on day 1. This question has been eating at me for days.

This is a common theory touted by people who tend to play a more reserved game... and it's utter and complete nonsense. This idea results in more villagers being lynched than just about any strategy out there.

Post length says more about the player's personal style, not the role they play. Most people tend to the same word count whether they're a wolf or a villager (compare last game to this game). When I'm a villager, I talk to get others to talk, so I can catch them in a lie or find reasons to believe them (a strategy, I'll point out, that worked well this game). As a wolf, I'm not trying to "cover myself in complicated words so people don't notice me" (which, to be honest, doesn't make much sense to begin with)---I'm trying to control the flow of the game. The latter is riskier---as in, it's riskier for the werewolf to talk a lot, not the villager; if anything, a werewolf role encourages less talking, not more. Though I still maintain that "amount of talking" has more to do with personal style (introvert vs. extrovert; responsive vs. active; cautious vs. controlling) than it does one's role.[DOUBLEPOST=1378394424][/DOUBLEPOST]

You people wondering about pegglefrank? yeah. Big mystery why he was killed, right? frankly, I just killed him because he was annoying me, and also because he's dangerous. He won the last game by getting a herd of followers as a false seer. (really, I was just kind of sore about the first game and peggle gave me a good excuse - being annoying. :p)

Awesome: goreae has just illustrated the central conceit abused by just about every single mystery, legal drama, police procedural or detective story every written: The assumption that nothing is random; that all actions taken by the opponent(s)/unsub(s)/suspect(s) are goal-oriented, meaningful clues that need only be put together to explain everything.

I guarantee you, the most enduring mysteries of our times (I'm talking Amelia Earhart, the few JFK mysteries that actually are kinda odd, etc.) have explanations that are as bafflingly random as they are completely mundane---explanations that will scarcely be considered, let alone discovered, due to that human predilection to seek patterns, purpose and meaning in everything. Earhart stubbed her toe on a screw and dove into the ocean; the magic bullet bounced off the rib of a seagull; the Tienanmen Square "tank man" just thought the tanks were parking, etc.

Who knew Werewolf could be so profound?

Now you are reminding me of murder by numbers

"it's not a random choice, if you keep coming up with reasons not to pick them"

If I ever get to be GM, I have a pretty clear Idea of what's going to happen...

A dummie guy as seer

A clever guy as fool

An ex-wolf as bodyguard

A dummie guy and a clever guy as wolfs

(With dumie, I just mean people that can't explian anyone, not really dum people)

i like the mystery of Agatha Cristie - She dissapeared. Without a trace. Here car was found besides a lake and she wound up at a hotel three days later with no recollection of what occurred.

Funny enough, I only know about that mystery because of an episode of Doctor Who.

Bingo. That's the episode mine is loosely based off of. The investigator is supposed to be agatha cristie, and I was originally going to replace werewolves with vespiforms, but decided against it.

That's literally the last reason why I would kill somebody. The person makes for good lynch bait.

This is why we can't have nice things moon-moon shouldn't be given wolf claws. Ever. Put those little balls on his claws to make them harmless.

Sorry, but from now on I will never trust you, and hopefully people think twice now before mixing up a crap player with a wolf.

lol, you've been listening to dgdas9 too much.

You were the third member of the Villager Bloc that almost won their team the game---in a 5-man landslide.
You (alone) identified the real werewolf at the end. (dgdas9, on the other hand, trusted me completely)
And who did I try to manipulate into lynching the last villager? Not you. I thought manipulating Staxed had a better chance of working.

Yes, definitely a crap player.[DOUBLEPOST=1378413429][/DOUBLEPOST]

As a Martian, I can explain this: Aliens. It was aliens.
