Re: Twg Xxix Postgame Wolves Win
Moreso that Guido... but that wasn't even why the game was ended.
The game was ended because LD figured out that Chardish used the same exact set of wolves from the 2nd attempt at running it and the 3rd attempt, which was in play. Frankly, that had no bearing on the outcome of the game (which was stated at the time), since who is a wolf and who isn't has zero bearing on the outcome when 9 people are in agreement on a tribal victory.
Also blah... if you feel so strong about me being hypocritical about this, then all it means is that I'm better at arguing my point than you are, since in ALL THREE cases, the rest of TWC has agreed with me (in at least a simple majority). OR, it means that I'm right. You'll also recall that I've been banned for cheating before... and I served my time without bitching (too much). So yea, I've bent the rules before and got punished for it.
Nobody is denying that you played an excellent game... we're just saying that the means by which you got me publically framed were illegal, which vastly changed the rest of the game. Nobody is saying that the humans WOULD have won... but I wouldn't put your odds at winning at 95%+ or anything remotely near there. At most, 60%. At least, 10-15%. As opposed to the other 2 games that are "similar"... tribal game that WAS 100% guarenteed, and TWG22 that was easily 95%+.
My one regret was not pushing you to see if you were a wolf when we were at dinner. I pretty much told myself that I wouldn't take advantage of our meeting IRL to deem your humanity/wolfism.... which is the same thing I did when I met TPS. What I'm going to have to remember is that whenever I meet a TWGer during a TWG, they have to be a wolf. I'm now 2/2 in that regard. So look out Panda/Guido if you come to visit!
PS - What are people's feelings towards Whorli and I playing together while I'm in Europe? I'll be there from June 5th til June 29th. Clearly we won't be together IRL for me to gain any edge... I also wouldn't be on AIM, but would remain able to post at one time during each game day. If people feel that I would be too inactive to play, I won't... but I'd like to still attempt to play.
