this is a good synopsis. What would benefit Town would be if the players that did tell they got no result specified (as I related earlier) if it was No PM at all, PM with no information, OR PM with “no apparent result” because we know that is a different animal

I have voted to self preserve as well. I know I’m Town and I don’t know what alignment the other has. I will not “lay down roll over”

See? That’s why we vote - so the majority can decide what is best for the town. It was my decision to vote for I.S. - it was not my decsion to kill her.

Is that an admission of guilt?  
As for the rest of your post, you could lighten up a little there PizzaGuy. This is a game. You really think I’m making up the fact that I was out of the office today? Lame.

The upside is I got paid for putting about 150 miles on my cruiser today - much more fun of agonizing over a game on the interwebs.

:facepalm:  
_die_. s/lie/die

Now that should make cents in context. (wrong word intended this time)

@ **PizzaGuy** with respect to **brewha** ’s latest post: On N1 you didn’t know your power. You _could_ have been Scum and targeted a teammate just to see what happened. It was speculated (probably on D1) that Scum might do just that, so they could compare notes privately and figure out their powers.

We will have to agree to disagree, then. I’ve been up for lynching before as town and I know it sucks but I don’t vote for myself to save myself. I just try to play and get as much posted as I can before the end of the Day so that there is something for town to look at when I’m dead. Now I will say that I haven’t been up for lynching when it was LyLo or anything so who knows what I would do then.

I’ve had a bit of time to read over the thread, and here are some of my thoughts:

> [@Askthepizzaguy](#):
>
> Although some pointed out that Brewha being poisoned means it’s possibly a wasted vote, I think a townie would just vote based on who they think is scum, even if there’s a tactical reason not to.

This quote is in reference to Idle Thoughts. I have stated why I think voting Brewha is a bad lynch today for strategic and game-theory reasons alone. I think it’s a waste of a lynch, and the town only gets a limited number of lynches before the wolves win. I definitely don’t think we should be giving Idle Thoughts townie points for wanting to vote Brewha despite the poison.

If Brewha and Idle are wolves, it is just too easy for Idle to bus Brewha here. If we lynch Brewha and he flips wolf, the wolves have succeeded in making us waste a lynch AND they also get an easy opportunity to look like townies in the process.

> [@Askthepizzaguy](#):
>
> If you took notes on your computer I’d love to see.

This quote is in response to a post from Astral Rejection claiming he had a bunch of notes on townie and scum reads (which presumably only a townie would bother taking). On 2p2 there was a thread where a player was modkilled for sharing screenshots of spreadsheets with all his reads throughout the game to prove he was a villager. The mod decided this was an angleshoot and killed him the next night. I kinda think the same thing should apply here. While you can definitely share your reads and ideas, sharing your notes just to prove that they exist and you’re a townie doesn’t seem to be in the spirit of WW. This is just a thought, it’s completely up to Gadarene and I’d be interested to say what he has to say about this.

AskthePizzaGuy, I think your work is very good and impressive, I just felt I had to respond to some of the things you said.

Night one PCM targets someone and gets a result on the target  
night two PCM targets someone and gets a result on the target  
Night Two PCM is alos told he is teh Apothecary and given the Role PM of the Apothecary.  
Apothecary role is inconsistent with the night one and two results hence PCM does not think he is the apothecary

It’s neither a or b actually. I haven’t gotten any night info about game mechanics or else I would have shared them here by now, and I am not a wolf. I just incorrectly assumed there were 9 wolves in this game (following the usual 2p2 structure) and that it was common knowledge.

When I realized the mistake I’d made and accusations/speculation it resulted in, I was overcome with embarrassment and frustration and basically immediately closed the thread and went to do something else to cool down.

Yes, I was around EOD on d2 but I was busy with work and not convinced by any of the leading wagons. An EOD in the afternoon is tough for me because I’m working, I’m used to 8-9 PM when I’m usually home relaxing. The person I thought would be a good lynch earlier in the day, precambrianmollusc, was no longer a wagon. I didn’t think voting for him in the final minutes would be productive. But yes, I understand that as villager it is our duty to find and lynch wolves and the only way to do that is by voting, and I will do that today.

Right. I didn’t mean to imply anything sinister, just that you probably got the role of another player. Did you get a role and alignment PM like Ed and Weedy? I’m not sure if theirs are exactly the same but from what I gather, they did both get role and alignment.

Actually, I just realized that what you got is different from Ed and Weedy in that it has your name but not your role (theirs had a name and accurate role). I’m thinking misinformation like that would be from a scum.

I would like to see some 2p2 players to weigh in on this. Would such a statement be viewed as PIS/TMI there?
