So, we don't kill Frodo, the village decides to lynch Carver on the premise "his usefullness/powers are done so let's do it". I think at most one of us should join that, and not vocally, just low key play along.
If someone in the village won't do it for us, one of us, me? snow? early? anborn? greco? should post something along the lines of:
"Tell me again, why are we doing this? Will this give us any credible voting analysis?"
This plan needs work so please chime in with your ideas how to handle it.

The plan is to save carver.
Voting analysis supposedly helps the village. When you have a clear lynch candidate, like a viewed BG, everyone, including BGs, vote for that person. This makes the vote analysis for that lynch crap. If Carver is put forward as the days lynch just because he's no better than a PJHobbit now that he's supposedly used his power, it acts like a lynch of an outed BG in terms of the village doing vote analysis. I'm hoping if that happens that someone other than us will point that out. Maybe Joseph. But if they don't, do we want to?

k i think i follow... you're saying under the assumption that carver indicates that he has used his power for Day2. (which he hasn't yet done, besides if the village isn't going to lynch him wouldn't carver want to promote using it N2?)... then to bring up the question of vote analysis being a reason to hold off? its literally my 2nd game so vote analysis isn't something i understand, but isn't it too early for them to mean anything anyway? i guess looking back from the future. imo thats more of a stretch in trying to save him, than needing to risk having frodo have as much protection as possible, and it may be a risk the village needs to take.
that said... what about the possibility that worm/eg are merry/pippin masons? i think norwood is just jocksniffing worm and following them along.

i think doing anything as stretchy as future vote analysis in trying to save bigruss, will do that person more harm than good later on when he eventually gets lynched and shows up as BG.

It means the village is spinning it's wheels pointing fingers at each other. Best thing all of us can do is just let them go. Post, but don't go after anyone. Not just fluff posts but nothing accusatory at this time. |

I'm just putting out possible strategies for tomorrow, if we ever get there. Vote analysis from the early days can be crucial, at least in the eyes of the general village. The analysis won't come into play until later, but polluting an early lynch with a drop dead candidate does screw things up, at least in the opinion of most players. We could use this to deflect a lynch from Carver if the only reason is "his powers are done, lets lynch him". But we have to be real low-key about this or when he does go, and turns up BG, they will look hard and anyone trying to protect him. |

i think we have to rely on joseph or another vet doing it... i know I can't do it. if russ/carver leaves, than i'm the only "partial seer" we have with my corrupthobbit attempts (if i get an unsuccesfull attempt it basically confirms them as a ggrp or indy). don't think we can risk that.

I'm not suggesting you do anything, not yet. In fact, none of us should do anything right now.
DO NOT RESPOND TO FOOS!
Really, lay as low as you can and don't let anyone bait you, like FOOS is trying to do.

Those are fishing posts. only thing i'm gonna go do is post that i won't be around tomorrow till the evening due to my work sched. will probably wait till the morning to do that though after i get to work. so it doesn't look like i'm skipping out right after foos's posts. |

Everytime someone says in thread that they're not going to be around, I mark them roleplayers. Just reply to some posts with I agree or what makes you think that or we should check the vote talleys. If you're leaving say "off to work, school, whatever' don't give a detailed account of your next 12 hours. It's a red flag.
