NOTW XL: Return of the Baron (Game Thread)

[Romanichine]

choxorn!!!

We win!!!

Didn't think we would win after Nictel was controlling the votes.

Good game everyone, and thanks for hosting Autolycus.

 

[mythmonster2]

Aaaaaaaand it's done. Random tidbit: I had to kill the Juggler for my personal goal. I completely ignored that.

 

[choxorn]

Wow, I was completely wrong at the end about the wolves. I honsetly thought that at least one of Skooma, BananaLee, and Nictel was a wolf- and that there were 4 of them if there were also 4 of us. Oh well, I can't complain about winning.

 

[Romanichine]

Maybe they could convert one but never got to do it. Hrm, and I'm still wondering why they didn't kill anyone on Nights 1, 2 and 3 (and failed on N5). It felt like we were doing most of the bad stuff at the beginning. Inactivity?

 

[Kennigit]

Good job choxorn.

Threw me off with lynching cdpwane

 

[choxorn]

That wasn't entirely intentional- I was trying to vote for cpdwane a couple of times to distance from him, but I was hoping Seon would get lynched on day 3. Oh well, it did work in making me not look like a cult for the rest of the game.

Good job choxorn and congrats to the cult.

Yeah I read your quicktopic. Curses!

 

[Earthling]

Congrats cultist team! Wasn't expecting it to finish quite the way it did but great job to choxorn hanging on and lynching SK when he was actually town, not even a wolf.

Hrm, and I'm still wondering why they didn't kill anyone on Nights 1, 2 and 3 (and failed on N5). It felt like we were doing most of the bad stuff at the beginning. Inactivity?

Reading their QT it was partly that robbiecon was inactive but you killed what seemed like their main killer (landlubber, highest strength for strength kills) at the very start.

I was out early and rather disappointed to not have anything at all to do at night but that didn't stop this from being a good game. It was still close but the early days did seem painful for the town if anything could have gone better in retrospect, the remaining townies gave it a nice effort at the end including Winston, Kennigit and Nictel. Really we didn't capitalize on the wolves slow start and several things went wrong, for instance classical's lynch or Seon vs. ATPG (claiming a scanner was in contact with him too, and it all blew up with civplayah) was an unfortunate distraction. I wasn't happy that Methos didn't even try to defend me from a terrible lynch either, so many wolves and cultists bandwaggoned on that one and absolutely would have been better for the town if we hadn't lynched off so many Circus in the early days

Thanks to Autolycus again too!

 

[Optical]

I was watching that and thinking 'choxorn's tricking them'.

...No, seriously. But I'd have been fooled were I still alive by then.
Cult faction deserved that win, very good play

 

[Nictel]

Yes good win choxorn! Though I kind of object. See the night before I used the beef, when there we're only us three left. The result pm was:

Spoiler :

I just realized I can win this. Because with my ore I'll always have more votes at my disposal. With the meat I can prevent a wolf night kill. My only threat is some other killer like that ghost/smoke thing.

It is indeed possible for you to win this game.

Just in case, I don't think there is another werewolf but you never know lets use the beef/meat

You set out half the beef outside an abandoned house to sate the hunger of the roaming canines. The next morning, it was gone.

Beef item use successful!

Which made me believe there had to be one more wolf left. If it had returned unsuccesful, ergo no more wolves I would have lynched choxorn. Oh well.

 

[Autolycus]

The roaming canines that were left were the sheepdogs of the shepherd, let loose for the night. The meat successfully blocked all 0 wolf attacks. I knew there was a good chance it would mislead you, but the meat's purpose was never to be a wolf-existence scan. And yes, leaving SK alive would have won you the game.

 

[BSmith1068]

Awesome job Choxorn!!! I though for sure our win was out of reach, but you pulled it off!

Yeah though it was also robbiecons fault. Since he was also totally lurking I got the idea both of them were.

Tell me, to rub some salt in the wound: I thought of vigging choxorn with my knife the night nothing happened. Would that have been succesful?

I never was suspicious of choxorn purely on the base of me being alive xD

 

[Autolycus]

Yes, you were stronger than everyone left in the game for the last several days. For about the last three days, it was guaranteed that you would be one of the last people standing, the question was just who would be the other one.

Edited in Circus PMs, will edit in Town PMs and other mechanics later.

 

[Kennigit]

Okay I laughed when I read red_spy. I took wanting to trip up people as a PG to mean harm them.

When it literally was to trip up people.

 

[Winston Hughes]

Thanks for another quality game, Auto.

And congratulations to chox & co. for a deserved win.

 

[choxorn]

Funny thing was, which you could probably tell by reading the last few pages of the Cult QT, I honestly thought that Southern King was a wolf, too.

 

[civplayah]

I hate the way you guys reacted to my death.

I loved my role, too.

 

[Aiolos]

Dang... I almost kept Nictel alive...
