CFUW team post!

[junkyardjesus]

Okay, here's a place we can talk without anyone noticing. We can talk about strategies here, where the wolves aren't likely to hear us.

I suppose we'll have to be quick, then.

[junkyardjesus]

Yeah, as soon as the clue is given out I'll go ahead and make a post to them.

[prodigious]

It looks like Leo and Crow are the safe sheep.

[prodigious]

And I've gone ahead and set up a post here.

[junkyardjesus]

Thanks, sorry about that, I was a little busy tonight.

[prodigious]

Should I do this?

[prodigious]

- either way, dinner's about to come out of the oven, so if you get back to this before I do and you think we should do it, go ahead and take care of it without me!

[junkyardjesus]

Alright, I'll take care of the rest. You did a good job talking with them so far!

[prodigious]

I'm back, sorry about that!

Are we going to take them up on how we place our vote, or are we rejecting it?

[junkyardjesus]

You know what? Just ignore him. Ultimately it's our vote, we have to decide for ourselves. Getting threatened into voting one specific way isn't the right way to play this game.

Speaking of votes, what are your thoughts about how we vote?

[prodigious]

I'm a little worried about having the safe sheep decide to tell people we're wolves, but you're right. I suppose we can always unlock our posts if we're on the spot again and let people decide what they will based on that.

I...am uncertain, honestly. I find Tiffany and Nita least suspicious, because their missing two suspicion votes so far is giving up an excellent opportunity to control who goes up to vote. The first day, the votes were split 4-4-3 at the end; no matter who the wolf was, they could have brought us up to four and then it would've been a coinflip, which at least has a chance of keeping the wolf out. Because they didn't, the wolf definitely went up when they could've protected them. I can't see a wolf letting that chance pass.

The second suspicion vote, it wouldn't matter much if Laguna and Sanosuke were indeed the wolves, because they would've been up regardless. But the other two teams tied, so if we didn't get a wolf that day, they again could've controlled who went up and kept a wolf off the block entirely.

But I'm torn between the other two. I find Parker slightly more suspicious than Lambdadelta, but I don't have anything solid to back that up, honestly - so I feel that I could very easily be wrong about it.

[junkyardjesus]

Yeah, you're right, with such a close vote there's no way it could have been Tiffany and Nita. And that's kind of why I think Laguna and Sanosuke were the wolves: all the votes went on them very quickly, so the wolves could have jumped on the vote for them to look less suspicious, since there was no way to save them.

...actually, now that I think about it, we can see the vote order in ousting! Parker and Tatsuya voted real quick, but Nita voted near the end. I'm not sure what to make of that, though. If we assume the wolf is either Parker or Tatsuya, why would they vote for a teammate so quickly?

[prodigious]

Admittedly, that's been bothering me too. If they had reason to believe the vote was going to go that way, then I could see jumping on it quickly so they don't look suspicious by voting later, but that is a rather large "if," and the fact that Sanosuke and Laguna were leading in suspicion doesn't ensure that the voting is going to go straight for them, either.

I could see them offering up a teammate as a sacrifice, but it'd be risky to do it if they didn't already have reason to believe the ousting was going to be a lost cause anyway.

[junkyardjesus]

The thing is, there was a majority vote on them even in the suspicion poll, and none of the teams in this clue voted for them. Tiffany's team at least had the excuse of not voting at all, and Parker's team voted for a team that didn't go up to ousting, but Lambdadelta's team suddenly switched from Adam to Sanosuke right at the start of voting. That seems really weird to me, especially since the person they voted for in the suspicion poll went up for ousting.

You know, the more I think about it, the more I think we're both right: Lambadelta's team really is the wolf team. I think we should put our vote on them.

[prodigious]

I'm fine with that, although our vote won't be enough to get them into ousting unless someone else switches. Would you like to do the honors?

[junkyardjesus]

Sure, I'll go ahead and do it. And don't worry if they don't go up to ousting today, We'll get another chance tomorrow.

[prodigious]

And then there's the question of our ousting vote.

[junkyardjesus]

I say we just wait for Rika to vote, and then vote the opposite of what she does. it won't matter much if we have two sheep up for ousting, but if there's a wolf there Rika definitely won't vote for them.

[prodigious]

And seeing your question to the game as a whole...should I be ready to unlock that post with Crow and Leo?

[junkyardjesus]

Definitely. And include a link to the part where he said he would tell everyone we're wolves if we didn't vote the way he told us to, when you link the post as a whole.

[prodigious]

Looks like Rika just voted on Tiffany and Nita, so since we were leaning towards voting on Parker anyway...shall I go cast that?

[junkyardjesus]

Yeah, go ahead and do that. I want to talk to Tiffany and Nita tomorrow anyway, we need to keep them alive if we can.

[junkyardjesus]

Okay, I think it's obvious who is the wolf from the third clue. If we're right about Rika being a wolf, we're going to have to convince everyone else of that too. It's something to keep in mind for Tuesday.

[prodigious]

Right. That could be tough. She's pretty good at this.

[junkyardjesus]

As long as we try our best, that's what counts. And who knows, we might get lucky and she might slip up today.

Also, I'm going to be gone for ousting today. I might show up right at the tail end of it, but it's going to be up to you to take care of things, ok?
