RE: TWG XIII - Dark Matters (Night 1)

Please note that I have come home for the weekend. If you wish to contact me over AIM, send a message to RabiEnRoll, because bjstrattonIM won't give you a response until Monday.

The new day began, and 13 guests slowly gathered into the main bridge.

Ganondorf was first to notice that 13 wasn't 14. "Wait, where's Bowser? If I have to be dragged along on this stupid expedition, then so does he!"

"He probably forgot to get up this morning. I've had days like those before," Donkey Kong said.

Peppy was on the situation immediately. "ROB, scan this ship for Bowser's location."

"Scans indicate that target is no longer aboard this ship."

Everyone was shocked by this news. Fox came to his senses first. "What? How? Check last night's activity log, ROB!"

"Affirmative." A few moments of typing passed by, and the bombshell dropped.

"Log indicates use of air-lock system. Unknown sentient being was jettisoned from the ship. All space suits remain in the ship - proper protection was not used."

"..."

Zelda voiced everyone's thoughts. "Look like this Dark Matter is willing to kill others to survive this ordeal..."

"Krystal, can you run a telepathic scan on everyone? Maybe you can tell who's been infected."

"Sorry, Fox, I did that once already when everyone arrived. All 14 scans came up clean. Whatever this thing is, it can hide itself from me."

Panic swept the room. Who was infected? Who wasn't?

Peach offered a solution. "Well, if we can't figure out who's infected the easy way, why not do it by trial and error? Get rid of potentially infected people until we're sure they're all gone."

Falco was not happy with the plan. "Wait, you want us to kill MORE people? What are you, nuts?"

"How else can we ensure the threats are removed? If you've got a better plan, I'd like to hear it."

Peppy spoke up. "She's right, Falco. As much as I don't like it, this looks like the best course of action..."

It is now Day 1.

Tasselfoot has been killed. 15 players left, 8 votes is an insta-lynch. You have 72 hours to vote.

By the way, Peach saying "trial and error" was not an intentional pun.

Holy shit.

**alainbryden** · 03-25-2005, 04:08 PM

wtf

I can see two things wrong with this.

1) After what happened last week the best players should have been guarded first day.
2) After what happened last week the wolves should have assumed 1 and not even tried.

I can't decide whether it's more likely this was done by a player with alot of guts or someone who didn't think any further than their nose.

Look at that, flypie, you could've been a central figure in the story, but no, you had to go and change to a bit character.

I couldn't betray CF. He is my favorite character.

EDIT: He is my best character, too :>

I suppose it was about time that the wolves got past that whole reverse psychology thing on wolfing the best player.

I have to disagree with you Alain, when you say they didn't think farther than their nose. There are 3 wolves, so it's safe to assume we have an experienced wolf "group". Obviously a veteran player isnt likely to be led by a newer player, so what the better/more experienced player says goes. This being said, it's likely that it was a good player who is willing to take a risk. This ought to narrow down the possibilities a small amount.

**nforcer06164** · 03-25-2005, 04:40 PM

I don't completely agree, Lupin. Any player, veteran or newbie, could've seen Tass's recent first-day strategy: tell the seer to see him as soon as possible to confirm his humanity. Now, in TWG XII, when he used this strategy and was a wolf, it would've been wise for the seer to see him first, but unfortunately, the seer was bumped off night one. Tass, who we now know is human, could've given the wolves an extra day to kill others while the seer wasted a day on him, if he or she chose to buy into his strategy.

I don't quite think you are right in saying whoever it was had to be a better or more experienced player, but whoever did it was, indeed, taking a risk. However, I think the wolves may have made a small error in wolfing him when they could've let him lure the seer into using up one night, as he usually does.

**evilbutterfly** · 03-25-2005, 04:41 PM

I'd bet it was somebody who knows what they're doing rather than some newb who just saw that the top dogs could die. People who have said in the past that they'd kill Tass night 1 (me, blah, alain I think) are most likely behind this. Of course, we can't instantly condemn all of those people because it would only take one of them being a wolf to get Tass killed. It's just something to keep in mind.

What I meant was, any newbie could've read any past TWG and understood the situation. It's highly doubtful that we have three newbies on our hands, but anything is possible.

Also, anybody that may have caught onto the idea of wolfing Tass night 1 could easily use that information to frame one of you that had discussed it. I think it was wise to get a jump on that like you did, but I don't necessarily think that means that one of you are behind it. It wouldn't be smart to throw around wolf strategies and then use them, it would make yourself too obvious. Then again, some reverse-psychology could be involved, but it's too early to rule out anything.

I don't think would be really practical to place a vote for that reason, making that idea of framing them not the brightest one. Doing so makes you look suspicious, not to mention the fact that no wolf will get a lynch on one of the more experienced players this early in the game without a hell of a lot of evidence.

**blahblah18** · 03-25-2005, 05:08 PM

Ok, the wolves want to take this risk, good for them.. but let me say several things for future reference to maybe stop the bleeding in the future...
If the wolves want to try and take me or tass out night 1, so be it... lets agree that one of us should be guarded, and that it shouldn't be said who..
they have a 50 % chance of killing a main player, but that only helps them a lot, it doesn't guarantee a win (see last game)
On the other hand, they'll have a 50 % chance of GIVING THE GAME TO THE HUMANS... all roles will go to the acquitted and the game will be a cakewalk (see me guarding EB)

so although this sucks, and nothing can be done about it., hopefully this post will offer some protection to us in future games...

More to come when I have more to say

**Tasselfoot** · 03-25-2005, 05:44 PM

GL Guys... just gotta say that this is some unlucky bs for me:

Kilga told me the wolves initially picked someone else and switched to me.
Kilga told me the guardian initially guarded me and switched to someone else.

GL. See y'all in TWG XIV.

**evilbutterfly** · 03-25-2005, 05:58 PM

Oh, and I'd just like to say: Tass is not the god of TWG. Losing him does not mean we're screwed. In the past, sometimes people will lose a power player and feel lost and hopeless because they rely on them way too much. Don't take this loss as any different from the loss of another player, it's just as bad. As long as you people don't give up now, we can win this :P.

t wouldn't be smart to throw around wolf strategies and then use them

Seriously, I would have killed him. You thinking that is what makes presenting strategies you'll use such a great thing. Tass dying shows that the wolves have progressed to like...triple reverse psychology, so what makes you think they'd stop there?
