Niku strikes me as vampireish. He was quiet until recently someone counted the posts and he came in near last. Now he won't shut up trying to get the 2 big players killed.
I was quiet because I wasn't keeping up with the game well enough to make educated opinions known, and I have no friends or scrying abilities or anything to go off of except what I can see in the game. Then, people began to call me out for being quiet: UH OH, WHERE HAVE I SEEN THAT HAPPEN BEFORE? Oh, but wait, now I'm talking: that must mean I'm evil! If your catch-22 bullshit actually works, especially coming from a known wolf, we honestly deserve to lose this game. Which leads me to:
I still vote newbie gets sabered, because his existence is bad for every nonvamp. And man, I don't even feel good about that. I know he's my enemy and all, but it isn't even his fault that he has to die.
The funny thing is that I agreed specifically because Newbie made a claim with no backing and has been fingered as a dracula by people who's instincts I trust and who have anti-dracula policies. Luckily, you brought this to the table:
If he is a vampire, as I claim, he is on the faction that is the greatest threat. If he is the wolfsbaner, as he claims, then he is stopping me from doing my job (which right now is killing vampires moreso than killing innocents).
niku. I am voting that niku get lynched, not sabered. Someone has the interceptor again, and I don't know who. But I pi'd newbie last night, and I know he doesn't have it. He's the wolfsbaner with the ouija board and 9gp. Or maybe 11gp. Idk when payment takes effect.
Whoops! In the span of just two or three posts, you suddenly go from claiming that Newbie is a vampire and not the wolfsbaner to saying that you PI'd him and that he not only isn't a vampire, but is definitely the wolfsbaner. So, no matter which way is correct, you're just sowing disinformation. You're fed up with being unable to kill anyone, so you're jumping on the first innocent target you think you can get a bandwagon on (hey, that'd be me!) just so you can kill someone. That's frankly just sloppy playing that hurts both your team and mine. I know, play a tiny violin for the town, but right now you need us as much as we need you. Teamwise, not you specifically.
Because here's the thing to you and everyone else who wants to leave Nex alive: who's the better option? On Newbie's list we've got myself, Classic, Kayma, Verde, and Zach as complete unknowns. That means we could lynch or saber any one of these people, yes including myself, and congratulations, we just killed another innocent person. This is far, far worse than needing to sort out another werewolf to use for our dirty work. That's why I'm not rescinding my vote for Nex to be lynched, but I am
rescinding my vote to saber Newbie. Yes, this actually puts more votes on me for the saber, but I'm hoping Laser realizes that I'm not being suicidal. I'm just not going to leave my vote up on someone who the PI allegedly cleared.
That's also why I'm talking. Because guess what, I've been around the block long enough to know that a vanilla inno is just as big of an asset to the team as anyone else, and not being able to hard-evidence exonerate myself from accusations doesn't mean anything. Nobody can in this game unless the PI gives an all-clear. But I'm not going to let bad guys (like, say, outed wolves) lead a bandwagon on me without defending myself even if I've got nothing to go on but the thread, unlike the vampires and wolves.
Oh and one last thing just because I wanted to mention it anyway:
Niku wants to know if I'm the greater wolf so that Dracula knows if I'm worth biting or not (Dracula dies for biting a wolf regardless). If I am the greater wolf, dracula can bite me and the next dracula is invincible (except for lynching, maybe). If I'm not the greater wolf, it isn't worth it (assuming I know how the vamps play, which I don't). It's better all around if you guys don't know.
This also adds evidence to the "Niku is a vampire" story.
I brought up the potential of you being a greater wolf specifically because Newbie could see no reason not to leave you alive. When I was the greater wolf in the past, I held onto my turn until late in the game when I could use it to turn things to my advantage. Now, I don't know how wolf team is playing. Maybe they blew it first chance they got for a better voting block. And frankly, I don't care if you're the greater wolf or not. All I know is that people are suggesting targeting random people without evidence when we actually have a wolf right here, and killing a wolf will always be better than going "whoops, hit another innocent!".
If you know who an actual, honest to god vampire is, then by all means. Tell us. But don't paint me as one just because you've got murder blue-balls and want to live another day.
