Pokémon TCG: Sword and Shield—Brilliant Stars

Werewolf IX (Team Galactic's Plot) ENDGAME AND ANALYSIS!!!!!

UNVOTE: Mew*
VOTE: PokePockets
Reason: Bandwagon


I'm sticking to this one
 
OK, enough of the random bandwagoning this early. We've saved a quick Day 1 and now can learn about other players before completely voting. This post will be shorter than my first, but it will still be as thought provoking.

To people just voting: I am not beyond saying "Player X is not contributing to the game except for voting. therefore, he is out." Waliken almost fell prey to this in WW II, and I'm willing to whip it out again if people only post votes or post only quaint, two-four word explanations of their votes. I can and will start posting a list of said people if they don't start contributing. this is my personal warning to those of you doing it now. Some of you may not do as long of posts as I or the other players do, but starting to open up to conversation will make you a better player.

Brawler: What was the edit that you made and was it significant?

Those voting for PokePockets: What reasons beyond his bragging do you have to be voting for him?

Azure Kite: Should we get rid of the bandwagon starter this early, even if he did just start a stupid one?

Others voting for Mew*: What reasons do you have for voting for him beyond my long post?

Bandwagoners on both sides: See my rant at the top of the post. It was AIMed at you.
 
Cardz- I had voted for Lakak but i wanted to delete it so it would make more sense who i was voting for.

Kinda hard to explain.
 
Azure Kite: Should we get rid of the bandwagon starter this early, even if he did just start a stupid one?

IMO, once a bandwagoner, always a bandwagoner. Bandwagoners can lose games, and you should know this. I cannot be any clearer than that people who cause the loss of games cannot be had in the game, and thats just common knowledge of course, assuming you wanna win the game.
 
Vote: Undecided

Random voting/bandwagon voting is wolf-centric. I will not cast a vote till I have seen evidence worthy of my vote.

Brawler1624, you did not vote for Lakak, you had voted for Pokepockets. That was before you had deleted your post anyway. It was the specific reason that I had not posted, because as soon as I realized that Day 1 had begun, Pokepockets was already dead, except the votes were taken away before the mod saw it.

Some of you pokepockets voters should back off a bit. Pokepockets may be a good vote, but I would much prefer further discussion before we turn it over to the wolves.

Also, is there any way that deleted posts could be seen? It seems to me that there was a post deleted before Cardz first post and the mod post above that. Both he and I thought that Pokepockets had already been effectively lynched. That post may be important.

I voted for Lakak, that was in the post i deleted.

But then i changed back to pockets.

Don't tell me who i voted for. I know who i voted and unvoted.:tongue:
 
My thoughts:

Random voting/Bandwagoning is obviously bad. Previous games clearly show that the wolves get the upper hand almost every time.

It’s good to have people talking; it increases the amount of deductive reasoning one is able to bring into the game, if there is more information than just a simple vote.

Though, what was just brought up is intriguing. It seems as if 2 or more people saw the votes for Pokepockets go to 13, but soon after, that was deleted or something. Apparently, there is another person who got rid of their post.

I’m staying neutral right now, as there aren’t any clear targets so far.

Vote: Undecided
 
Vote count

PokePockets - 13
Mew* - 3
Undecided - 4


Seems like Pokepockets is dead for real this time, I recounted twice
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


The group of surviving Pokemon and humans approached PokePockets as he ate dinner. Everyone had been in a bad mood since the crash, and paranoid even since the phone was found with Team Galactic’s Message. PokePockets had been bragging about his survival skills a little too much (one comment) and the group was very edgy. They grabbed Pokepockets, who screamed in terror as he watched his comrades, his teammates, pick him up and throw him into the water. The group carried him to a high cliff on the other side of the island and prepared to throw him down the 90 ft drop into a watery grave. They heaved him, and he fell down the cliff, yelling out as he fell “CURSE YOU ALL, MY TEAM MAY HAVE BETRAYED ME, BUT TEAM GALACTIC SHALL DESTROY YOU AAAAAAAAAALL!!!!!” His voiced was drowned out by the crashing tidal waves, as a Sharpedo and Carvanaha jumped out of the water and caught him mid-air, in their mouths. His body was dragged under the sea, and the red stain on the water quickly disappeared, removing all trace of his existents. The town knew they had killed a Team Galactic member. There was one less wolf out to get them. They felt safe, and confident….at least until nightfall came….

During the night, the group of survivors slept restlessly because they knew the wolves were on the hunt. No one would expect this night to be SOOO full of action. (I certainly did not. This was SERIOUSLY A BUSY NIGHT lol)

A certain Pokémon approached a fellow Pokemon in an attempt to teach him the ways of Aura, but was surprised when a “pure of heart” barrier prevented him from doing so. He got more shock when he saw a human attempting to stalk whoever was inside this “pure of heart” barrier. However the human was unable to see though whatever protected the creature he was following. As the Aura Pokémon crept in the shadows to investigate, he heard someone scream “DARN, THE FILE IS BLANK!!!!” He saw a man in a police outfit, standing just outside of the “pure of heart” barrier. He looked confused and mad. He had obviously been trying to investigate whoever was in the “barrier.” The Aura Pokémon watching all of this was even more surprised when he heard a yelp of surprise and pain. He turned and saw a person with fangs get rebounded by the “pure of heart” barrier as well and saw the creature run back into the woods in fear. Still confused about what was happening, the Pokémon calmed himself with Calm Mind and realized that a bright light had just appeared from within the area protected by the “barrier” He realized that a Pokémon had evolved inside this “barrier” and rushed to tell the rest of the town of his six discoveries that night.

As the Pokemon ran back to the town, more things caught his eye. On the other side of the beach, a flash of lighting attempted to hit a fellow Pokemon, but apparently missed the target. The flash of light illuminated the darkness around him and he saw what he thought was a fight.

He saw several people crowded around a person. Who was it? It was DukeFireBird was surrounded by people who were attacking him with ferocity. The Pokemon stayed in the shadows and saw the same wolf that he had seen attempt to attack the “pure of light” barrier within the attacking group. DukeFireBird raised what looked like a trading card and yelled. “I PLAY, UNITED WE STAND!!!” His body glowed gold, and then proclaimed “My attack and defense have now been boosted by 800 points (AKA the wolves had only a 50% chance to beat him) The wolves charged at him, determined to kill.DukeFireBird. The first few wolves missed, but one of them got lucky (AKA I rolled a die and got tails). A lighting attack, of different magnitude from the one seen before, launched out and struck DukeFireBird. The other wolves took advantage of this chance and grabbed DukeFireBird’s arms and legs. Another wolf pulled out a .45 from his pocket and proceeded to shoot DukeFireBird in the head, point blank range.

The Pokemon watching in the shadows was now scared and used agility to rushed off to tell the villagers that they were in more danger then they thought, leaving DukeFireBird’s body where it lay.

DukeFireBird - Yu-Gi Oh

You are Yu-Gi-Oh….pretty much everyone hates you in every way shape and form…I mean, for gosh sakes, you are on a POKEMON forum!!!!! At any rate, you somehow wandered into the Pokemon World and can use the only thing you have…Yu-Gi-Oh cards. You don’t really like Pokemon either, so you have no problem getting rid of the competition as long as you are here.

Role: Heart of the Cards
WHENEVER YOU MAKE A VOTING POST (when you vote to lynch someone or to change a vote), you MAY also type out the name of a Yu-Gi-Oh Trading card of which you throw down. (you can disguise it in 1 sentence.)

You cannot use the same card more then once during this game.
You will only get the effect of ONE card (if you played more then one during the day)

You might get an interesting effect out of one of the cards you choose (not necessarily the effect written on said card, but some effect. I have to make it reasonable for the game after all.)


Win Condition: All the Pokemon Die, and Town Wins (both need to happen)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And for those curious, you can find the name of the card in his last vote post, and the effect it gave him was 50% defense against roles/wolves, and his vote would have counted twice today….had he survived.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When dawn broke, the entire island was shocked and surprised when a gargled, almost electronic noise shattered the silence of the rising sun. It then seemed as if all reality pixilated for a moment, and the survivors found Lakak with no mouth whatsoever. They realized that Lakak would be UNABLE TO VOTE OR EVEN SPEAK OR DISCUSS FOR (or risk modkill) the entire day (aka only day 2). Speaking of mouths though, for some reason Azure Kite was unusually happy, smiling all day long.

Before they could get over the shock of Lakak’s peril, they heard a shriek off on the edge of the beach and woods.

Metricus lie dead in the grass for all to see. His throat was slit open.

metricus - Team Galactic Mars
You are Team Galactic Mars, one of the high ranking officers of Team Galactic. You also head the technology department of Team Galactic. You are known for your intellect and cerebral superiority.

You are a Werewolf. You are a Werewolf with YOU WISH YOU KNEW!!! Each night, you get to converse with all other Werewolves and decide whom to Lynch that night. You can also communicate with them during the game through PMs, Aim, IM, E-mail, Etc.


Win Condition: Werewolves win


The town had one less wolf to worry about, 2 wolfs were down in a row, and they were confident, they would win. They were getting a feeling of safety….or perhaps they were becoming over confident.




BEGIN DAY 2

People remaining: 21
Votes needed to lynch: 11

VOTE: Mew*

Cuz' he was the closest to being lynched last time.
 
Dang!! That was alot of stuff going on. Let's try to interpret this.

Seems whoever the pokemon are can get stronger (through evolving) and that one of us in charge of that process (a phione maybe? or Jirachi?)

Aura Pokemon is obviously Lucario. But what does "teach them the power of Aura" mean? One more thing. Would the Lucario have died if they hadnt been a Pokemon? Lucario used an awful lot of attacks that seemed to help them (For example: if Lucario hadnt used agility would he have been found by the wolves and killed as well?)

"Azure Kite seemed unusually happy" Refrencing to a succesful role?

Multiple people were connected with the person in the barrier. The Lucario, The werewolves, and whoever said "The file is empty(Detective?)

Now for the bad news. Lucario saw a person with fangs attack the barrier pokemon. But the wolves killed someone(DukeFireBird) and so did the vigillante(Metricus). So who was it that attacked the barrier? Three forces are out to kill people. Although it might seem like it would be easy to lynch someone who is a killer, remember that two of them are already gone. I wouldnt expect more than 5 wolves. How many vigilante are normal? 1 or 2? plus this third, unknown force could be 1 or 2 more.
7 out of 21 people are killers? Seems unlikely but that means that 7 people dont really care who dies as long as that person isnt on their team. All the more reason to STOP RANDOM VOTING AND BANDWAGONING.

This message brought to you by the letter C (for clamperl)
 
Personal Interpretation: Holy lot of stuff happening.

This is only my analysis post, so that everyone knows what happened last night as far as I can tell and also a response to a few questions. my first probing post of Day 2 will come later (am in the process of lasson planning, so please forgive the bullet-ization):

--Lucario is playable (Def. Yes)
--Lucario is trying to randomly contact another pokemon/player (Def. Yes)
--"Pure of Heart" Barrier person is the Priest-role (Def. Yes)
--"Pure of Heart" Barrier blocks incoming roles (Def. Yes)
--Detective tried to target protected player last night (Strong Probably)
--Someone tried to Bite the player in the Barrier. (Def. Yes)
--the "Biter" was a wolf (Def. yes)
--The "Biter" was a killing role (probably not)
--The PLayer/pokemon inside the barrier has evolved. (Def. yes)
--The Player/pokemon in the barrier has gotten strong (Strong Probably)

--Roleblocker missed last night (Strong Probably)(this is debatable btw Strong Probably and Def. Yes)

--YGO is quite possibly one of the coolest roles I've seen in a while (Strong Probably)
--Tails Fails (OMG< YES!!!!!!!)
--The remaining Wolves contain a Lightning Pokemon (Def. Yes)
--The remaining Wolves contain at least one Human Player (Strong Probably)

--Lakak has been silenced somehow (Def. yes)
--I haven;t a clue what to call the silencer role (Def. yes)
--Hey, Silencer is a pretty good name for that. (Def. Yes)
--Azure Kite is the Silencer. (prob not)

--The Vig got lucky last night and killed a WW. (Strong Probably)
--The Vig knew who another Wolf was and targeted them strongly (prob not)

--There are 5 or more Wolves (prob not)
--There are 4 Wolves (Not Sure, but probably)

--Brawler and Jason are trying to speed kill. (Def. yes)
--Brawler, after making awkward, unsupported statements yesterday, has still not reformed his ways and should unvote and with Jason since a quick kill is going to get us nowhere today. (YES!!!!!!!!!!!)
--There is absolutely no reason to rush into a kill today, at all. (Def. Yes)
-------------------------------\

More from me later tonight. After dinner.
 
Ahh, I see I'm not the only one who has to put a secret message in their post. So DukeFireBird had the yugioh thing and it looks like shinygyarados apparently includes something at the end of his post.

I don't see why you guys are voting for me... just because I got the most votes last time :confused:

I'd be worried about the people that defended not voting for the werewolf >_>

So, after going back to page 3 I see that the following people tried to sway the vote:
shinygyarados
LifeVirus7
Cardzmaster2004
Azure Kite

I'm not going to make a vote yet... don't feel like getting accused of starting a bandwaggon again lol.

VOTE: UNDECIDED
