The Rookie Werewolf - Game Thread

[Robin the Jester]

Much like village is catch a wolf, kill a wolf. Wolves would be catch a role, kill a role imo. Im gonna presume thats the biggest claim of the game so far, although magda does keep saying they will shoot me

Sure you would have caught a role but you would have completely exposed yourself. 

Only concrete info we have now is Dexter calling you the Alpha. So we need to act, shoot Moe Lynch Ina.

on board with the moe stuff, but why you want ina gone?

[Ina May the Midwife]

In terms of the likelihood of Dexter being a bad actor. I've checked the time of the #281 post and that was 6.33pm yesterday evening, so pre-lynch.

I think whatever chance there could be that a wolf would make a claim like that especially with the wolf priest in play, they'd be less likely to when a counter claim could be made. No players had left the game at that stage.

[Kevin the Armorer]

The alternative could be Dexter is alpha and knows it will take two kills or more to get him out? but if we do yeet you we don't know for sure until it's too late when we find the priest. 

Whats your thoughts?

Pretty much what I said in my post a minute ago

The situation is dexter is bad, or dexter is rolled and has incorrect information

.... or Dexter is legit and you've been caught.

Quoting post #281 here for ease of reference.

Maybe the wolves have to try and guess who the traitor is in their den and guessed wrong this time??

Or flavour??

E if the kidnapping is successful, maybe that's when they've recruited.

Alpha making the call

Seems pretty definitive and there's no counter claim to suggest that Dexter doesn't have that power.

Just on that. I'm on the "Dexter is legit" boat but why would anyone counter claim. Surely they'd be happy to let Dexter take the hit that is coming.

[Moe the Innkeeper]

Elijah, seen here in the last sighting of him leaving the Prison for a trip to the Hospital. He has gone to ground since escaping and we believe he has successfully made his way back to his Narcotics crew who are helping him move freely around LA. He will stop at nothing to block Officers from going about their business.

From the OP, if we're presuming dexter is good, then this is Elijah fucking with his power. Absolute headwreck but it is what it is

[Moe the Innkeeper]

From my perspective there are only 2 options. I know im good

I have a vote in from earlier this evening on Vincent,  nothing has changed since I mentioned them earlier

You mentioned you'd shoot them in your list. Did I miss a post where you elaborated why?

You mentioned you'd shoot them in your list. Did I miss a post where you elaborated why?

Well yeah I said they were at the top of my list earlier today after a bit of back and forth with them and they've been fairly absent since. Haven't offered anything so why would I change

Didn't you say you were gonna come back this evening with some reads?

You mentioned you'd shoot them in your list. Did I miss a post where you elaborated why?

The reason I ask is Vincent's post #332 seems very village to me. Don't think they're wolf

I'm leaning towards William currently.

Lots of posts with no substance. Almost posting for the sake of posting. Did some of that detective work I said I'd do.

Having read over Dexters interactions with Moe and the serious breadcrumbs he dropped, I believe him. Even here he's challenging Moes vote on Vincent. Obviously votes William in the end which potentially puts Moe off him. The post this morning, I mean its hard not to buy into it.

Moe thinks it could be a wolf power, it could well be. I dont watch the Rookie, are there any bumbling idiot type detectives/cops or is a serious show?

Moe needs to be resolved regardless.

[Boris the Fool]

Only question I have is does Oscar not peek good been alpha wolf? Or would Dexter have a role reveal?

Op mentions Oscar is hard to track but also flavour about police uniforms. Maybe the police uniforms are he can hand one it to another wolf each day and the peel good??

[Dora the Explorer]

Just my opinions and where I'm looking today.



Next up Dora.

Nothing personal but think Dora is making it very hard to play the game agaisnt them. Was following thread fine but then seemingly can't follow the basic rules of the game and seems confused over everything. Adhd or not you signed up to play so you will be scrutinised like everyone and to me it seems like possible wolf just playing silly.

T

 That is fair enough. 
I don't expect any leciency for any reason. I am open to scrutiny as much as the next person. It was merely explanatory. I get the same complaint each game, if that means I am metagaming.    But sure! I could absolutely be playing silly beggars. 

Question: Why would you not think Magda is the Vig? with the pew pew. 

Ok GTG, meeting is on and I am posting here   I see there are lots of other posts I havent read. TTYL

[Kevin the Armorer]

It doesn't say that Elijah "interferes" with officers going about their business. His power is to the block. So surely that means the peek that Dexter tried would have been block altogether, no?

[Kevin the Armorer]

Sorry that was in reply to post 644 by Moe. The site is taking ages to post.

[Gordon the Cook]

The Dora not understanding autopriest thing is bugging me. Her posts indicated that she had been following the game quite closely, as she was calling out people for specific things. The weird post about copying someone's playing style to confuse thing and then abruptly leaving the thread felt a bit forced. Would like this explored further.

I would also like more from Gordon and Amy. It is confusing if new or rusty but if people don't contribute that is not helpful and gives us nothing to go on. I don't want villagers mistaken for wolves/SK because they are timid and I don't want wolves/SK going under the radar by not posting.

I agree I would like to hear more from Gordon and Amy too. @Gordon the Cook would you like to explain why you voted for me last night seeing as you didn't declare on thread?

No problem Magda! I put in a vote early as I wasn’t sure I’d be able to have time yesterday evening. At that stage all I had to go on was you looking to get bullets. I did call you out yesterday as a potential SK. I didn’t see the logic for everyone voting William off so I stuck with my initial vote.

Well if someone else was the seer and believed that Dexter was falsely claiming that role, then that would suggest to them that Dexter was a wolf. They could counter claim on that basis to help the village identify a wolf.

[Gordon the Cook]

FFS, did  the post from the Moderator not just say that the business card said Monica? And there is CM lying on the floor. Therefore Monica is dead? And Monica is listed as a baddie in the initial Moderator posts.
I swear to God I am just effing shite at Werewolf or something becuase every time I open my trap it gets questioned.

No Monica is not dead. Monica left her card, stating she was to one to kill Countess.

Aghhhh, that makes more sense!

[Ina May the Midwife]

I did something funky with the quoting

[Ina May the Midwife]

Post #652 is in response to you @Kevin the Armorer

I can see a path where Dex isn't the seer but does have information, but regardless, Moe has to go, right? And hopefully when we get the priest, we'd know at that point Dex was legit?

Not a huge fan of not having confirmation after someone dies though. Makes it a bit harder to work out what way things are after we make a move like this.

Yeah fair I have no problem with that.

Good question but personally I'd be happy to take Dexter at his word for now unless he's comfortable revealing - if it's a wolf play then it's a completely bananas one for D1 and I'll tip my hat to him

[Magda the Maid]

It doesn't say that Elijah "interferes" with officers going about their business. His power is to the block. So surely that means the peek that Dexter tried would have been block altogether, no?

Exactly, don't mind Sneaky Alpha Wolf Moe, he's just trying to distract.

I have been saying Shoot Moe, Lynch Ina, if we view Moe as the Alpha the fact he left Ina off the list of low posters screamed wolf covering wolf to me. Moe takes the role of high posting "good helpful poster" and Ina takes the role of low posting wolf, with a 3rd wolf hiding in the middle. 

I think the order of deaths need to be Moe and Ina.

[Weyland the Blacksmith]

Is it just Amy & Friar left to post? I'd say Friar is the more likely of the two to be gone

Only thing I'd add in the mix is that Dora is suss for SK role.

[Kevin the Armorer]

100% Amy is a n00b and has been quiet. Friar has been an active helpful villager.

[Moe the Innkeeper]

Yeah looks like 3 of the top posters gone so by Tuesday by the looks of it.. 1 munch, 1 sk and 1 stitch up. Thats actually impressive to get us all out

When ye are doing numbers please dont just write me off as alpha as your numbers are off until wolf priest is got

[Ina May the Midwife]

I won't quote all the posts where you've indicated that you're suss of me Magda. I see you gave an explainer for your vote last night but I don't think you've addressed my question about how, based on the same post, you've gone from agreeing with me to wanting me gone.

@Ina May the Midwife I voted for you I believe your interaction with Moe seemed off, felt like two players playing along with each other, the half call out of him but backing down right away and Moe conveniently ignoring you again.

I was interested to read this rationale Magda. I think my only interaction with Moe was indirect. I was reading back on posts earlier today and saw him call out Vincent for being a one post wonder. At the time I was also one and couldn't see why I'd escape scrutiny given I fit the exact same box. I responded to Vincent's reaction saying as much but that I wasn't putting too much weight on it at that moment.

More strangely, you said agreed with me about Moe at the time, and then you've voted for me for the same interaction.

I agree.... Moe is suss.

I think there's a flaw in your logic linking me and Moe. If the intention was for Moe to leave me off the low-poster list to cover for me then why would I undo that by saying that it piqued my own interest.

All that being said, I also get that with Dexter's revelations that there's probably nothing that I can say to move your suspicion off me and if I had your theory I probably wouldn't either.

Similar reason as to why I doubted Dexter too. If you have a role you don't come out gloating about it or dropping hints. If Magda was vig why would the wolves not go for them straight away this morning?

[Mick the Drunk]

The 1% is Dexter could be himself the Alpha wolf bussing another wolf or trying to draw a peek. It is absolutely ridiculous in my mind the wolves would try something like that so early in the game though. Its completely unnecessary 

95% Dexter is on the level and has been given the info (whether correct or incorrect according to Moe)
4% Dexter is taking a wild road on a hunch 
1% as above, Dexter wolf

[Magda the Maid]

Let's just keep it simple for now, Moe has got to go.

[Magda the Maid]

Assuming Moe is dead, who else should we be looking at need to get our next targets ready as this is the stage the wolves will scramble and try to distract the village.

I've given my reasons for Ina May but would like to hear if anyone else has strong reads/leans out there for anyone else.

[Kevin the Armorer]

I've already indicated Dora is high up on my list. I know Ina is getting heat but I haven't looked much at their posts. I'll try and take a closer look later. I'll also try and look at who Moe might have been sussing (or clearing) before Dexter made his post. Assuming he is a wolf, it's not going to be great data, but at least it's some data.

[Moe the Innkeeper]

Heading to the car now so will be checking in sporadically for the evening but there's obviously nothing I can do at this stage to show ye im good

Most likely scenario is dexter is what he says.. ive just got caught in the crossfire somehow by elijah I presume.

If Im away I pick up on the thread from where I left off then read forward to catchup before I post. Do you just skip to last post and not follow thread? Or do others help you see anything important you miss?

[Dora the Explorer]

Wagon forming on Moe but Friar's logic is worth considering for sure.: that if Dexter had a power, would he be that clear about it.
And to elaborate on his theory slightly. Why would TWO roled people be that clear about it?

[Dora the Explorer]

I was just making conversation! Of course, if anyone wants to summarise, I promise to read it and then promptly forget most of it!
