If I were to be the warlock, what use would I have for the zombie hunt information? Also, that would be a hell of a pairing considering I spent half the game trying to get Sleepy lynched.
My thought there was that if you/sleepy werw the baddies, you could help sleepy build a correct tramp claim with the info from the trait claims. Though that's a fairly moot point by now :p
(and if we are to take Alynkio's post seriously the warlock and wolf only came in contact last night, so anti-yellow voting record seems a bit of a moot point in whether someone's a warlock, though the Alynkio vote might make a bit less likely yes, assuming the warlock scanned the reds before that day)
 
So... speaking of Aedan, let's take a look at what Aedan was up to before he got hunted.

Some people have been correct to say we should be concerned about the red wolves, since we have no information on them as Wagonlitz was hunted night 0, but that cuts both ways. They're more dangerous, especially since they've lost fewer wolves, but I don't think going after less active players is the way to go about it, especially since I seem to be on everyone's short list for being a red wolf while I know I'm a villager. Red wolves could very well be talkative instead, and by virtue of being leaders in the lynchings directed the village against the yellows, but that's a dangerous path to follow. Since the seer and priest are alive still, I hope they have something on the red wolves.

For the yellows, only Hax, Beartjah, and Sleepyhead remain as plausible yellows. Everyone else has exchanged dangerous votes with the yellows. Sleepyhead technically did yesterday, but it was a self-preservation snipe, so he gets no goodie points for that. Beartjah and Hax have still never voted or been voted by a yellow wolf in any circumstance, which at this point is highly suspicious. Beartjah and Sleepyhead have most consistently voted with the other yellow wolves, and I find it particularly curious that no yellow wolves voted Sleepyhead despite him twice being a major candidate alongside a yellow wolf. I think Sleepyhead has dropped out of the conversation and consideration too easily, he's still a suspect.

Vote Sleepyhead

This is from the day that Hax got lynched (Day 5)

Surprising. Both that Hax was red, and that the wolves would go for a used up zombie hunter like Esemesas. I had him down as an obvious villager for the past couple days since he claimed zombie hunter and had some confirmed votes down on yellow wolves. Wagon the red wolf was a zombie hunter, so it was unlikely they had two zombie hunters to begin with. Likewise an important goodie wouldn't out themselves as a zombie hunter, so he wouldn't be that. Odd and dumb choice to hunt him while the seer is still around.

Hax being red just convinces me even more firmly that sleepyhead is in fact a yellow wolf. But still, what can we learn from Hax's death? The four people who voted him to death are less likely red wolves, however the fact he was by that point widely considered the default lynch and never even showed up to vote leaves lots of room open to sell out votes. Prior to yesterday the only living players he voted are Capibara and Sleepyhead, both with dangerous votes, so they're unlikely reds, and the only one who voted him was me on day 4, making me also an unlikely red. The Sleepyhead point is rather moot in my opinion since he's a very likely yellow.

While Avernite, Arkasas, alynkio, and Caillean have some anti-red points for voting Hax into the lynch, the probability of selling him out is high, and I'd honestly be shocked if there isn't a red wolf or two in that list.

Also, with 24 starting players, I think we're looking at 8 starting baddies, particularly since we've seen at least one cursed. So I think the packs started with 3 wolves each, plus a sorcerer and another unaligned baddie, either a warlock or a cultist. This means we're looking at possibly three or four baddies left, depending on whether the no-hunt was a cursed. 1 wolf of each pack, possibly a second for one of them, and an unattached baddie are probably what we're up against. 10 players left in total. Not bad odds.

Sleepyhead's extremely likely to be the final starting yellow wolf, so I'll be going with him for now, will look more into the last starting red wolf. A cursed is also possible, so that'll be something to keep an eye out for.

Vote Sleepyhead

Ok, so initially I was suspicious of this outing since it claimed to know Alynkio hunted last night, and I recall Johho and Randy discussing their dislike for it earlier. But on reflection, Johho does make it clear that he intended to keep the trait in the game, so this claim isn't impossible. It would've been fired off with only a 50% chance of success, but it could have been done. No other role or trait could be able to identify that Alynkio was a wolf who hunted last night. If true, this would indicate that the red pack hunted last night, which would fit with an ABAB hunt pattern, since the yellow pack hunted night 0, as we know from a dead red wolf that night. Well, the changeling role makes that all questionable, but Alynkio's far more likely to be a red wolf than a yellow from the voting record, which points to Sleepyhead as the last yellow wolf. Alynkio is likewise one of the players I indicated as a likely sell out vote on Hax. He also could've been cursed and hunted by the yellows with either a changeling or an unusual hunting pattern responsible for other inconsistencies. I'd still bet on red wolf though, we don't even know if a changeling is in the game.

But, Alynkio could be innocent and the target of a lie by Brovahkiin. I find this a bit unlikely because it leaves the major question of why would Brovahkiin do this if he's lying? He was not previously in danger, and make a false outing would basically assure his death, especially with the seer still around. The one usual possibility for this, Spiritually Attuned, isn't in this game, so Brovahkiin couldn't have been scanned and preemptively outed the seer to score his side a point. Unless the set-up is massively imbalanced more than I think possible, this can't be a parity push either. There are too many downsides to this, and too few benefits, for me to plausibly buy that Brovahkiin is pulling one over on us here.

So lynch Alynkio we must (and sleepyhead tomorrow I suppose)

Unvote Sleepyhead Vote Alynkio

These are both from the day of the Alynkio outing (Day 6), after Sleepyhead claims to have tramp-blocked him.

Now, Aedan was hunted Night 6 and turned out to be a changeling. If what Sleepyhead said is true, then he would have blocked Aedan's changeling orders and he would have learned about his identity. Now, we have two choices, either he saw that Sleepyhead was a tramp and therefore a less likely baddie, and he would have shifted batteries to other targets, or he would have judged Sleepyhead to be a baddie and in that case informing the village of the Tramp trait seems to be the natural choice.

Given that there was no change in the arguments in both days, I am inclined to believe that Sleepyhead's tramp claim is BS and that he is in fact the last yellow wolf, and that he hunted Aedan because he kept voting for him over and over. It would neatly explain things:

1) The first day of voting where Dedonus and Sleepyhead got ran up and Sleepyhead PM'ed Dedonus to bail him out

2) The reluctance of both Sleepyhead and Dedonus in providing explanation to the village about the Day 1 proceedings

3) Dedonus's never explained Onlinegate

4) Choice of hunt targets for yellow wolves - K-59 suspected Sleepyhead and got hunted. OrangeYoshi went after Sleepyhead and got hunted.Aedan also went after Sleepyhead and he got hunted. My own survival in spite of also expressing suspicions on Sleepyhead is quite a surprise, might be due to the fact that I started voting other targets, or that I am typically easier to lynch.

5) Sleepyhead's claims of tramp trait usage going seemingly unnoticed by Aedan the Changeling

In face of such a mountain of evidence, I could not forgive myself if we let Sleepyhead get away with this and win.
 
For the record, I'm not surprised that beartjah and reis91 are out to get me today, they are two of the likely remaining baddies and probably thought I'd be an easy lynch, despite the fact that I have recollected for all my actions, repeatedly.

Beartjah has the worst record and his only defence is along the line of "I'm a villager so all accusations are wrong".

reis only has a vote on Dedonus the second time he was run up going for him, which isn't much considering the second run-up would be a good opportunity to alibi vote. Focused on tunnelling me the day Xarkan was lynched, completely ignoring that case.

Caillean hasn't showed up at all and has the voted by Dedonus thing in her defence, which could also be an alibi.

I do agree though that we shouldn't have a spread out vote today with opportunity for the baddies to influence the outcome with traits. I think beartjah is the better lynch due to the obviousness of it all, but will followed bro and Avernite onto another candidate if necessary.
 
Beartjah has the worst record and his only defence is along the line of "I'm a villager so all accusations are wrong".
Just for the record, my defense was that I fully agreed I'm looking rather badly. I don't really have much of a defense beyond that I migth argue that I was wrong a lot in previous game as well, which isn't exaclty much of a defense...

Literally the only thing that is even slightly in my favour is Xarkan voting on me in this votecount:
Official vote count, 1h 55min to deadline

Capibara - 3 - beartjah, Hax, Dedonus
beartjah - 2 - Yakman, Xarkan
Sleepyhead - 2 - OrangeYoshi, Arkasas
brovahkiin - 2 - Yvanoff, Avernite
Xarkan - 2 - esemesas, alxeu
Dr.ramius - 1 - reis91
OrangeYoshi - 1 - brovahkiin
Yakman - 1 - Capibara

not voted - 7 - Claude LC, Dr.ramius, k-59, aedan777, Sleepyhead, Cailean, alynkio


missed 1 vote - 2 - Claude LC, Dr.ramius
Where Xarkan is voting on me, and I was briefly voted by capi putting me on three. But since that vote basically evaporated by the end of the day that doesn't really help me much.
 
As for beatjah, he has one other thing going out for him that makes him a less likely baddie, which is that he was, if I recall correctly, the first to note that we are one day from parity. Baddies would have some interest in this fact remaining ignored. Not very reliable, but still puts some weight on the goodie side of the scale.
 
My main point I was trying to make is that you're looking even worse based on the voting records. You're only still here because two wolves voted TFW up on day 1(you may have explained Dedonus, but Xarkan is also at least mildly suspicious I think), your day 2/3 votes relieved pressure from pressured wolves and day 4 was self-preservation.
I may not have been voting yellows, but at least I don't have quite as many suspicious interactions with two wolves. Your votes actively aided/been aided by wolves seems to me to be more suspicious than only just failing to hit the yellows.

And you defended youself with(should've answered this earlier but forgot this answer was a thing. Sorry bout that :p)
Is it though? Obviously the not being a dick thing extended onto the day of Dedonus' lynch. Nothing pointed to him being a wolf at the time so I didn't want to be part in his lynch. Wrong move in hindsight, but I had no inside information as to his allegiance and writing villager instead of village isn't much of a case, despite him actually turning out to be evil.
Misinterpreting the case against Dedonus,
I didn't vote for Xarkan the day I lynched the sorcerer, but I also didn't vote for Capibara nor Caillean. In fact, no one alive was on Xarkan that day. When Xarkan was lynched I made the final blow after spending the whole day defending myself from the delusions of a red wolf.
Only gives an explanation that it could be done as villager as well, which I also noted in my case on you.
As for the Dedonus vote on Caillean, that could have been an alibi vote seeing as Dedonus was getting attention, a vote train was forming on her and Xarkan was still showing up to vote, at which point he panicked and created a four-way TIE with Bro being one vote away from a five-way. As we saw with Hax, most of his voters were indeed packmates.
Dedonus pushed Caillean up to 4 votes, ahead of everyone else. tbf vote 3 on Cai Came in the same minute so he may have thought he was only putting her into the tie, but with Xarkan in the tie as well I think a save attempt seems more likely unless Dedonus thought that Caillean was done for.



Anyway, 40 minutes left till deadline. We need to start voting. Since the whole "don't vote sleepy" thing seems to be a moot point now, and I still think he's the most likely wolf:
VOTE SLEEPYHEAD

Though I'd be glad to follow Averntie if he has different thoughts, I've been wrong more often than not this game and he seems to have a better idea of what he's doing than me and also seems cleared :p
 
Official vote count, 38min to deadline

Sleepyhead - 2 - reis91, beartjah
reis91 - 1 - Avernite
beartjah - 1 - Sleepyhead

not voted - 2 - brovahkiin, Caillean

Have I missed some votes?

There are other puzzling things about Sleepyhead being a tramp. Given his involvement in the events of Day 1, it would make sense for him, if he was a villager tramp, to abstain from using his role because he wasn't going to get hunted anytime soon. Furthermore, a goodie tramp would definitely not want to use his role on the likes of Hax who are heavily suspected of being a baddie, because that would return mixed scans for Hax and himself and he could very well get killed out of it. And using the order on Aedan on a Yellow wolf hunting night would also be pretty reckless given that Aedan had a good record against yellow wolves (voted both Xarkan and Dedonus IIRC)

That identity thing you build this on is just wrong. Then you go back to meta and my thoroughly explained mutually beneficial arrangement with Dedonus.

You seem to have full knowledge on which pack hunted when, how come? As far as I see it, AABB is technically a possibility as the yellows hunted Wagon night 0 and the reds Arkasas night 3. Though you seem awfully sure on who hunted when, as if you have inside information.

tbf though, I think just about everyone thought Hax was a yellow.

Wait, how do we know that was a yellow night?

I was obviously just looking after myself. Hax could've hunted me as a wolf or a village hunter which I wanted to prevent.

Again with the certainty on the hunt nights. You know what, I think you've exposed yourself here.
