All you guys are so smart ;-;

Your form of interpretation isn't wrong, but another way of thinking about it is that if Laurentus is a psychopath and he decides to eliminate you during the night phase, he can easily justify it by claiming that the bad guys are intentionally targeting you to frame him.

In regards to your question, I would attribute it partly to my lackluster involvement. My insufficient remarks can easily be perceived as wolf behaviour, and my erroneous votes are an additional entanglement, both of which make me an easy target to remove during the day phase. There just isn't any point for removing me in the night phase.

Meanwhile, since you appear to be absolutely convinced about Laurentus being one of the wolves, would you be so kind to consolidate and post the exact quotes that resulted in the suspicion? Or perhaps you are alluding to your role as the Seer Lauren?

In that case, I suppose it comes down to who you believe. If I'm eliminated, I would hope that people would continue pursuing Laurentus, because I'm absolutely convinced that he's one of the baddies and I'm willing to stake my remaining time in this game on it.

I don't have any specific quotes...as I said, it was more a gut instinct (the sort that comes with spending lots of time leading a region in a political simulator ). However, I think a few pages back when he denies sacrificing his fellow wolves as a valid tactic is something that is particularly suspicious. As I said at the time, it's one thing to deny that that's the case, but another thing entirely to deny that it's even a valid tactic for a psychopath when it obviously is. To me his denial was outright disingenuous.

If Laurentus-san turns out to be a baddie, then what does that mean for us? o.o
What connections will we be able to draw from it? ;-;

I don't particularly feel like repeating myself, is all. The arguments against me are based on "gut-feelings" and I can't defend myself against it. This game has been dragging on for a lot longer than the others in terms of activity, so I've reached a point where people are either going to believe me or not, and if I do defend myself, I'm perceived as overly defensive.

As for saying it's not a valid tactic to sack wolves, I truly believe that it buys time at best, as various people have already suspected me.

And I can't say I'd never sacrifice my fellow wolves if there was some benefit to it. People know me too well to believe that. I'd absolutely do it if there was actual benefit to it, but I don't think there is. As I've already said, it's better to silently let people die off. Especially when people already believe I would kill my fellow wolves.

But in a game like this, sometimes a little extra time sewing doubt about your identity is all you need to pull off a victory, especially if the psychopaths you're sacrificial would be voted off anyways. It's not like you (or any theoretical psychopath) would lose anything by jumping on the bandwagon.

That is true, but it's another thing entirely to be so vocal about it. It's a safer tactic to just let things go the way they're going.

Look, the point is, those who already believe I'm a psycho are going to take everything I say as lying to get myself off, and those who don't believe I'm a psycho seem to think I'm behaving pretty much the same as always.

Colby has a completely valid reason for suspecting me, but it's a bit unsporting. If people follow that logic, certain people shouldn't even bother playing anymore, and I would eliminate this list of people as a matter of practicality in each game.

Yay! I'm on a hit list!

A POTENTIAL hit-list, if we follow our brother's train of thought.

I could probably add taulover to that hit-list, even though I've never seen him in action as a wolf. I believe people have a tendency to underestimate him.

Why exactly is my reason for suspecting you "completely valid", yet simultaneously " unsporting"?

Because I definitely can't fault the logic. The logic is impeccable, but at the same time, it would imply certain people are just too dangerous to keep alive even without evidence, and that would beg the question for those perceived as being so dangerous: "Why should I even play the game?"

Because those same people are also tremendous assets.

You've just reached the point where the danger isn't worth it anymore.

...

Like. That can apply to anyone who's still alive from that list.
