I think I was actually the first person to vote for the Q.. but it was completely random.. and I didn't know I could hold my vote off till today..

Seeing as what everyone has said, there are a couple reasons to think a couple different people are wolfs..

As some people are bringing up really good points they are either looking like really good thinkers or really good deceivers..

The same with the people that aren't really saying anything.. they either look like idiots or someone who wants people to their name to make people think they are with us, but not post too much so that we don't really think of that person as a lead suspect..

I voted The Q because I didn't know about the insta-lynch thing.. If I would of known that us voting on someone, and it not being right got that person killed.. then I wouldn't of gone for him because he looks like he could be a valuable thinker to have.. but seeing as I can't revoke my vote then I guess Im going to stick with on and assume that he's the second part of my first thought..

Now I think sleepless even more because he hasn't voted. I also don't want to get rid of Q. So my vote stands.

[blahblah18]

RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: TWG III - The Backstabbing Bucca

chardish oyu should remove my vote from Q

[zildjian133]

RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: TWG III - The Backstabbing Bucca

Oh yeah blahblah is up there twice.

[Cenright]

RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: TWG III - The Backstabbing Bucca

He did change it. His name is up there twice.

Trey (87x, for those not aware).... you are allowed to change your vote.

do you have any idea what is going on dude? clearly you haven't read the other 2 games, or it would have been obvious to you that you are allowed to change your vote. please read those 2 games and their post-game analysis so that you have a greater understanding of the nature of the game. this holds true for anyone who hasn't read them either.

so, since you want to change your vote... do so. but, be aware that once you make a vote, you can't un-vote. you can only change your vote.

[Kefit]

Ok, if Q is a wolf, then I imagine that there would be a voting block against someone in an attempt to save him. But there isn't. All of the other votes are spread between various people. Remember, there are four wolves this game, with four votes to use towards saving one of their own. That's a rather significant force, and one that I do not see any evidence of being in use now.

I see a few possibilities:

What if Q is a wolf, and the other wolves are letting him die to throw off suspicion? This would be idiotic. Assuming that Q is lynched, then after this coming night the game would be left with 17 players and 3 wolves, which is not a friendly ratio for the wolves. Furthermore, we all know Q is smart, and if he is a wolf, I very much doubt that the wolves would be so unreluctent to lose him.

What if the wolves are waiting to change their votes, or looking for the right oppurtunity to jump on someone else's bandwagon? Well, the only reason Q isn't dead yet is because Tass and Sleepless haven't voted yet. Even though Tass said he wouldn't vote until today, it was still a very real possibility that he could have voted last night anyway. No one knows anything about Sleepless, so his vote could have come at any time as well. The wolves cannot afford to put off saving Q, since he can die at any moment now.

Crap, I gotta run to class now. I might have something to add to this line of reasoning later.

[blahblah18]

I completely agree with kefit, except there is one other possibility... say Tass and Sleepless are both wolves, they wait until there's enough votes on someoen else and both jump on that person... not that I believe that, just rtht its a possibility

[Tasselfoot]

so you know blah... there are a few flaws in that theory.

1. i change my vote all the time, so just because i would have voted for one person doesn't mean i wouldn't change.
2. all i talk about is not bandwagoning votes, so why would i just jump on someone without some form of logic or reasoning.
3. sleepless is always quiet. he's been quiet for 2 full games already.
4. if i was a wolf, i would have blended myself in more already.
5. i've already said my reasons for not voting. i have nothing to go on and refuse to cast a random vote, or bandwagon for no good reason. kefit's logic makes alot of sense.

[blahblah18]

no tass, I agree with you completely, I'm just saying the possibility exists, thats all, and what kefit is talking about is the main reason I voted for Q.. as the first person to vote for someone that already had a vote, I wanted to see who else would think that there was a chance to cast a deciiding vote and push someone out, hence why my Real vote changed to Eric

[Kilgamayan]

As it stands now, The Q would not die as soon as Tass and sleepless cast their votes because at most he would have 7 which is not instalynch material. We're playing the game the normal way this round, so if no majority is reached by the time limit, the top two candidates are put in a run-off.
