Pre-XVII Werewolf Metagame Analysis

[PMysterious]

Time to bring this back from the dead (since everyone else forgot about it.). Now that the Wolves FINALLY got a victory, I think I might go into why.

1. Activity- Activity is a MUST in all games. This game had a good amount but a certain confirmed Town left at the end of a vital Game Day.

2. Updates- The updates made 0 relations to the wolves and it actually led to the hiding of the Wolves themselves.

3. Town VS Town- There was SO much of this. It stopped people from actually looking for Wolves.

4. Loss of Seer- The Seer loss actually left the Town in the mist of who the Wolves are.

5. The Wolves themselves- The Wolves were REALLY good in this game. They knew how to fall everyone into their hands to make the flawless Wolf victory.

Well, if anyone disagrees with any of these points. Feel free to talk. All I'm doing is giving out some points. Plus, we might need some communication before the next game.

3. Not that we could help it. For goodness' sake, it's not like we all have cheat sheets and were voluntarily fighting each other.

All each of us can do is vote who for we find scummiest. So we guessed wrong this time, ok, no big deal.

4, If townie day play wasn't so bad (almost all of this games town included) then this would be a non issue

2. Actually, there were clues to the wolves in the updates. Just not major ones.

5. No, they weren't THAT good. PF5 and Cabd were really obvious, IMO. Town just never caught on/bought Cabd's flimsy claim.

Not too big of a deal at all. It was just a few mistakes. That's all.

1) Yes, but can harm both town and wolves, so it is effectively null.

2) As I stated in the XVII thread, there actually were hints to the wolves identities (Weather, attacks, descriptions), and they also would have been named as well had the game continued. That Castform and his weather. No one suspects Castform. NO ONE.

3) That is the whole point.

4) Again, that is the whole point :D. Glaceon crumbed his role to his death, and the wolves saw his crumbs and killed him AS he was finding on of them. (JP)

5) Meh. They played well and had some good reads (Seer and Priest reads, very nice). But there were some places where they way overextended (DP's lynch etc.) Over all they played well, but the town made up for the rest.

We knew castform was gonna have to fake a pokemon claim when he made that little "true weather master" quip in the night update.

I'm surprised no one saw/realized this...


DATA UPDATE should be up tomorrow.
