oops
BUT....in my defence....it was only my second option
No, seriously, this probably came across worse than I intended to. You see, I'm gonna tell you a little secret about me, that some of the others don't know. Xardob probably knows, but none of the others. In reality I'm not that big a jerk as I'm playing in this game. This is a persona, it's what I do to keep this fun for myself (and hopefully some others as well). The fact remains, however, that the 1st day ends quite often with a lynch of a new player (as they often don't have their footing in the community sorted out yet), which I don't applaud or criticise in anyway, but it's a fact. More often than not, those end up to be innocent (though not always), and as it's often a compromise vote caused by people not wanting to vote off their buddies with at least a hunch, it is a bit of a sacrifice. No one calls it like that, but it's what it is. That is, until I said it now, because I just added this whole "name it as it is" thing to my persona this game, which makes me weirdly excited and slightly edgy.
So, in a way, despite me trying to get you lynched and talking about sacrificing you, I'm still your best friend in this game. Remember, we had our tre porcellini moment, that's gotta account for something

Congratz, you found us. We're packies. Soot randomly rolled the two most awesome players as packies in a small game without specials and thought..."you know what? A smashing victory by those guys is EXACTLY what's gonna revive WW on this forum. Everybody will be like...woah, that was fun being eaten, let's do that again right away". So yeah, that's totally what happened. But don't tell dem others, ok?
Nothing to fear though, our most present and visible player posting spammy memes and egomaniacal "vote for Xardob because I said so" rants will revive the community all the same.
I want to apologize for this snipe - driving to Portland for a long time after rotten sleep put me in the crankiest of moods.
I'd be cranky if I had to go to Portland, so no worries. In fact, I found your snarky reply quite funny, it was well played! While I might be the most lovable guy around behind that persona of mine, I've FINALLY (took me like what? A dozen years or so?) learned to separate this game from my real emotions.
And seriously, I hope no one thinks I'm earnestly thinking all that bull**** I'm writing here. I'm having fun. I hope so are you. If you don't think my **** is fun, then I hope at least you create your own fun. The more people are having fun, the better the game. And even though I am a natural born leader (as an Austrian, I sorta have to), I'm perfectly happy with people waving me off as a slightly weird, but fascinatingly charismatic, guy.

So we should follow option 1 because of unmotivated trust like sheep? Because of "WE ARE A TEAM"?
Yes. Give it some time, and you shall see how it all falls into place. You'll see the light, and all will be good.
Till you prove your innocence
Vote Big McLarge-Huge
Hold it right there, Lupo-boy. You ARE an experienced player, you've said so yourself. Writing something like this in WW is big bs, and you know that. No one can prove their innocence, not without a specialist on board. You MUST know that, and yet you use this faulty logic to place an OMGUS vote. This is by far the fishiest thing you've done so far, and I won't let it fly

I said that I find your mutual vote bull****. You are both just waiting for people to come along, only to turn on them. There is no way you have already nailed down both wolves.
1) The fact that at some point two players vote each other doesn't make it a mutual vote. Xardobs vote has been on me since page 1, I switched my vote rather recently after his behaviour convinced me he was the best choice for now. My vote on him is serious. If you want to know whether Xardob is serious about me, you have to ask him.
2) Gauging player reactions by placing votes is what every experienced player does. Well, almost every experienced player. There are those that sit in the corner smoking, commenting cynically on everybodies attempts at getting something going, and twirling their chest hair, and that's that. Not sure that gets us a lot further.
3) No way? No way? Ha. We shall see in the end. Plus, don't be thick...Xardob and I have literally both joked about me pulling a Whoopin this time around. It's all part of the persona, lighten up!
For the record, I always roll rolls randomly and never adjust. Hence I also don't metagame in terms of who the wolves might be based on the host's disposition.
I know you do, but most hosts care about their game being actually fun to play

And for all those of you complaining about memes and joking...baaam, here's your first WoT. Enjoy! You'll soon regret it and wish I was back to memes n' ****.
