there's 20 villagers right? 6 slugs....1 in every 4 shoulda/coulda be a slug, with an extra wild card slug. there's still plenty of big names left that could be slugs, and there's too many under the radar players that could be slugs......i think we need to start piecing theories together and picking them out.

Let me just say it's an honor to be considered one of "the big three"

Hey Juice and Canaan. We should start a new clique called The BIG Thr3e

LOL don't get ahead of yourself. Big three as in this game, other than that, your possibly 25 out of top 25, maybe lower :( You have a week schedule :(

I agree with your sentiment...but i think you also need to consider that with there being 7 slugs they have a lot of flexibility in the strategy that they employ.
well, i dont think they saw IE going down, especially since the nom nom bird got one right. maybe they didnt have time to plant much of a plan together with her? what i mean was based on her voting patterns/posts, it made me feel that some i had held suspicion over may be better candidates for villagers.

The Triumverate of Power.

But Malk I agree with your theory but i am still very suspicious of jwie. his lack of input even tho he gets getting called out is very strange.

salt DanH we could've used your help the last few rounds. while you've still had some insightful posts here and there, but i feel like you were so into the last game that you would've made a better attempt to let us know you wouldn't be around much.....plus, heading into a game, i'd want him as a recruit if i were a slug.

As far as I am concerned, Juice is a slimeball.

1) I can't fathom the slugs *NOT* converting him. If they weren't going to convert him, why not eat him? I can't see any situation where the slugs would just leave a player of his caliber as a villager... it's just a bad idea.

2) Once again, as soon as someone starts getting votes, all the sudden people start jumping on some other person like ZOMG THIS IS TEH SLUG!

3) The insistence on taking out Zarovich... that whole situation is very shady to me.

I realize that critical thinking has not been big in this village, but you need to look closely at the subtle manipulation that has been occurring for several rounds now.

We as a village can be ok. If we get a slug with a salting today and the bird can nom another at night we are in decent shape. That will gain us 1 slug (assuming the slugs nom a non RP)

this is kind of where i stand...i think the village is shooting itself in the foot by not making the logical salt here.

:face: i didin't mean "better" attempt, in the brashness of my theory. i should have said you would have made a louder or more fervent attempt. not trying to disclaim you spending time with your kid or being sick.

I'm in for salting Jooce. I as well keep thinking, they recruited him and another after we had that whole, they wouldn't convert because they are big names and talked about. At this point, it's worth a shot.

salt jooce

Indeed. Also, I'm sticking with this decision. Jooce is one I'm willing to knock off to find out a little light unless notified otherwise.

Maybe so last night, wish I was around for the talking. I just think at this point he's a strong candidate to at least be a slug.

do you think it was something that came out of nowhere. im sick of this village p-footing around suspected people, overthinking, and then changing to some non-descript villager. i can only imagine how many slugs we would've had by now if we just committed. its funny how the idea of a bandwagon has done a complete 180 from earlier games. now its looked at as a sign of sluggism where before it was a stupid villagerism.

/rant

and im thinking through typing.

Like how people were so adamant about salting crayz when Senka was arguing for IE....

salt juiceagain....i just think this so much more logical than salting some nondescript player like wallflower or a noob like LITT (clueless noob at that)

I really don't think juice is a slug.... he has been garnering salt attention since the 3rd round. He'd make a bad convert. We've all been using this "he's so good for them not to recruit" strategy. They could just as easily use this to their advantage by not recruiting him. They know that we would salt him in the end. No need for him to get eated and buying themselves an extra day. I still like my WF vote.
