TWG 200 Game Thread: Dichotomy

[DaBackpack]

an important thing to remember is that (im assuming) nobody in the game knew that there was going to be a purgatory game thread. which means, wolves EXPECTED a color flip last phase, just like the rest of us.

this means that we can still use wagonomics in a more traditional capacity for last phase. In the scramble, wolves sought to maneuver their votes in a way that protected themselves and the team as a whole. They expected a color flip, even if one didn't happen, so they most likely intended to spread their votes across all of the different non-threatening wagons in order to avoid stacking in a suspicious manner.

This makes celery stand out even more.

where I'm going is here:
eliminating Xiz here for SCIENCE isn't particularly helpful for the following reasons

Xiz is a good Samaritan and sacrificing himself for town - Good possibility we end up with no flip revealed, and from what we've heard from game 2, it doesn't sound like it's gonna get anywhere closer before EOD. This also means town parity -1
Xiz has information about the setup and isn't forthcoming - As it says on the tin. It could be advantageous for him to be entered into the second game. This is just free help. Most likely the anti-town option.

___

the scenario I'd like to see is a change in the start of day message in the other game. if we vote someone out today and their start of day message changes, we might have a confirmed anti-town on our hands. it could be confounded by the additions of the incoming night kill(s) in this game pouring into game 2, but typically I don't expect anti-towns to die in the night regardless of the setup.

This entered my thoughts as well, but I'm like... what can he do in that game? If he's willing himself to be in the second game and then someone dies in that game, wouldn't that make his mission, whatever that may be, be put in vain for the wolf team?

Or can a lone wolf in the other game submit no kills? I assume not since the second game apparently can't no vote.

Xiz has died in a lot of older games for doing scummy things as town. It is pretty frequent. And while he doesn't really deserve it, by doing it, he did kind of ask for it

if that makes sense

WAT?

I have a Vote on Cedolad

[DaBackpack]

im not opposed to a xiz lynch, not because of any game-theoretical take on his self-sacrifice proposal, but because chaos is annoying to deal with and I'd rather make him someone else's problem lol

Also good morning

[bugkid666]
