[VFM] Elf Gold Rush - Game Over. Humans Win!

[clonedcheese]

@Vulgard

Oh yeah, there’s a Doctor soft somewhere in my ISO that I could find, but I recall it being somewhat blatant to people who know me

@Vulgard

Wait, actually, blatant softing in this setup is a terrible idea. I’m a moron.

liking vul less and less here
these two just sound so forced

[City]

also my fake doctor soft has been for nothing

[City]

oh ye I am also just a vt. For real.

[Vulgard]

Nah, I’m just mildly annoyed at myself. First for not really doing what I should’ve, second for doing something dangerous in this setup and only realizing it now.

But eh. It is what it is, I guess.

[City]

ok, human

[Zone_Q11]

…alright. I guess this is resolved now.
That leaves us with Windward in the end… again.

[City]

What are the claims rn

[City]

like a list

[Zone_Q11]

Nuclear/Squirrel: MoDet
Clown: Vig
Windward: ???
Everyone else: VT

If Windward doesn’t claim Doc, then they’re either dead or hiding among the VT claims

[Vulgard]

Nuclear → Squirrel MD (N1 Pigeon, N2 min), Clownzu vig (n2 Pigeon).

There’s an immediate problem I see with the former claim and I might as well bring it up right away; for someone who N1’d Pigeon and saw him not moving I didn’t see much defending of Pigeon from being vigged. Only pushing other targets, but not really protecting Pigeon from dying. And yes, Pigeon not moving didn’t mean he was locktown, but Nuclear sure seemed to think that way when claiming (she operated in greencheck/redcheck terminology).

I’ll backread to be sure, but that’s what stood out to me. Also, there wasn’t a redcheck, but I attribute that to Nuclear being funky and it’s not necessarily AI.

[Zone_Q11]

Probably best not to search the Doc claim.

[Vulgard]

@Zone_Q11

If Windward doesn’t claim Doc, then they’re either dead or hiding among the VT claims

They should not. That’s why I claimed VT. If they are hiding among VT claims and we misyeet today, they’ll be forced to claim tomorrow; but if they claim tomorrow, they can get CC’d by a wolf and potentially lose. There’s no such risk today.

Also, I’m basically re-evaluating here, so having a free clear (if Doc is alive) would be nice.

[January]

Wind, I wouldn’t claim doctor if I was you.

[January]

I would also claim, if I was you.

[Zone_Q11]

That may be so, but wouldn’t claiming Doc be the equivalent to asking for death?

[City]

Yeah not worth it

esp when they can protect 1 of the PR claims

[Vulgard]

And sure, with a MyLo situation we just sleep, and CC’ing forces two days of claim battling instead of just one (taxing on wolves), but it’s still something that can happen and that’s easily avoidable.

That’s point one. Point two is the fact a wolf can claim Doctor tomorrow if the real Doctor doesn’t claim today. In that case it’d probably be a “VT” claiming it. And then the Doctor is forced to CC anyway and might lose.

I read Wind’s wall and I’m pretty sure she’s never written anything this long as a wolf, but I’m resetting my reads for the most part either way.

[Vulgard]

That’s all I have to say about mechanics for now, moving on.

[January]

In Mylo night, I die, solving nothing.

@Squirrel2412 Did Nuclear give reasoning for her targeting and approach anywhere, anytime during the game? (Private threads.) If so, what was it?
