Welcome to Round 4!
Ya shot a HUMAN!
Challenge for Round 4 -
Who sang the song "Grandma Got Ran Over By A Reindeer"? First to answer this correctly, and post a video of the song being sung, will have immunity for this round only - Winner cannot be shot or eaten for Round 4!
ATTENTION!
"Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer" is a novelty Christmas song. Written by Randy Brooks, the song was originally performed by the husband-and-wife duo of Elmo and Patsy Trigg Shropshire in 1979. In the lyrics, a grandmother gets drunk on spiked eggnog at a family Christmas Eve party and, having forgotten to take her medication and despite pleas and warnings from her family, staggers outside into a snowstorm. While on her walk home, she is trampled to death by Santa Claus and his reindeer pulled sleigh. The second and third verses describe the next day's Christmas gathering where "all the family's dressed in black (for mourning)" and the question is asked as to whether Grandma's gifts should be opened at all or sent back the next day for possible refunds or exchanges (the collective answer to that question is a loud "Send them back!"), while the widowed "Grandpa" acts casual like nothing's happened, drinks beer, watches football and plays cards with "cousin Mel". The song closes with a warning that Santa, "a man who drives a sleigh and plays with elves", is unfit for a driver's license, and that the listeners should beware.
Catmandon was the first to answer correctly, although he did not share a video of it being sung successfully. If he should do so, he will have immunity. If not, we will move on through the round with no winner.
Catmandon has IMMUNITY for this Round only. Please do not shoot or eat him!!!

Sesame street and a wimp sung that song.
SPV for HermioneGranger.
Right now, I am feeling slightly suspicious about Whoviandeb and HermioneGranger. My main reason Whoviandeb has been flying under the radar for the most part. Also, she also only played as a wolf 9 out of 67 games (based on HarryPutter's database, which holds records of almost all WWG games up until #3241 and the recent games list), making her chances of being a wolf higher than most of us according to the laws of probability.
I am suspicious of HermioneGranger based on her accusations of kz.
HarryPutter's wolf database: http://ksteven.github.io/wwg/
Some more numbers: Right now, each of us has a 22.2% chance of being a wolf (25% if you know you are a human).
Just based on Harry's database, Sophie-Drake has had the role of wolf only 11% of her games (again based on HarryPutter's database), meaning that she has the highest chance of being a wolf.
My numerical assumptions are mostly based on theoretical probability and the hope that Jake used the math.Random function to assign roles

Time for my list.
Aviator - still a new player, nervousness could be attributed to that. Leaning human
Bradon - solid and straightforward, leaning human
Catmandon - not much to go on, so equal odds
Froggy - tendency is to trust, but slight chance of danger in that... equal odds
Hermione - her push for kz is slightly suspect now his ID is known, leaning wolf
Hydra - open and helpful, believe to be human
Sophie - leaning a bit more human than not, but may change
Stewie - feel last round was his tell, believe to be wolf
My strongest hunch at this time is Stewie, voting accordingly
It's a disease, not a punch line

It's really late (early am) and I'm getting ready to go to bed but saw the round started. I need to go over the last few rounds before I vote.
Will post my "deb" list when I come back later this morning and will vote then as well.
Night all.
Oh, cat - your above link worked as it took me to the video. Poor Grandma...
SMILE and people will wonder what you are up to!

I agree that whovian has been flying under the radar. Spv for her unless more evidence becomes open. But I'm gonna try to get a couple hours more sleep and I'll. CHeck back in then.

Great song...Yay Cat! SPV for random cause we have a long time before the round ends. I'll check later to see if a majority forms! I'm leaning towards Hermione as possible wolf...but it's just a hunch
Edit: I realized that Hydra already voted for HG, I'll change my vote to Froggy but keeping an eye out...

So now that I'm actually awake, I have some thoughts. Hydra seems to be trying really hard to figure it out, which could just be very good human play or maybe a wolf trying desperately to hide. Another one that I'm not sure about is Aviator. Yes, while he is new at playing maybe it's an act to make us think he's human? I'm not sure. What do you guys think?
Viva la vie boheme :)

See first post!
Take all sorrow out of life and you take away all richness, and depth, and tenderness. The capacity of sorrow belongs to our grandeur. It is the furnace that melts hearts together in love.

Froggygg and Catmandon haven't said much either..

You've got some good points there Hermione, though I doubt Hydra would do that much work as a wolf (maybe he would, dunno).
What's your opinion of quieter players like froggy and Stewie?

I'm not really getting strong vibes from anyone, but here are my thoughts:
Hermione I'm leaning toward wolf
Hydra does seem to be very helpful, but could be either human or wolf
Aviator is new but has been in a few games now and should know enough to not continue to emphasize that he is new. Leaning a bit toward wolf.
Who, I can never read her, so I'm not sure
Cat is usually a wolf when I feel he is human and I've made that mistake many times. Human?
Bradon is another one I always seem to get wrong. Have a bit of wolf feeling
Sophia is really flying under the radar but she is not usually very vocal. Wolf?
Stewie is giving me a little wolf vibe
Frog I know is human
I'm going to go ahead a put in a vote for Sophie because she seems to be more quiet than usual.

With a little over 6 1/2 hours left in round, I'm still unsure about everyone. I have no real strong feelings either way about anyone. I was still skeptical about Stewie, but he could have taken himself out of a tie by voting for Kz (who we now know was human) but didn't. That seems more human to me.
Aviator - Playing pretty much normal for a newbie who is human.
bradon182001 - I am human
catmandon - he has immunity this round, which in itself is kind of strange, I don't ever remember him ever even trying for immunity when it was offered, let alone getting it. I would move him up to the front burner at this point.
froggygg - I have to believe she is human when she says she is.
HermioneGranger - Haven't played many games with her, so undecided.
Hydra1234 - seems to be trying, so for now I'd consider him human.
Sophie-Drake - Something doesn't seem quite right, but nothing I can point to so will move her up to the front with Cat.
StewieGriffin - I've already stated, I think Stewie is human based on last round.
whoviandeb - I'm inclined to think human, she suggested the Seer divine Hydra since he had immunity and couldn't be eaten, which in my opinion was good advice. On the other hand, I suppose she could be a wolf steering the Seer away from diving herself.
Guess I'll go with Sophie, but could change my mind before the round ends.

I will admit that I was completely lost those last two rounds because of those weird tie and mixed up shootings...but I pretty sure that I know what I'm doing now...just trying to be vocal and let everyone know so that I'm not a weight dragging uselessly along the road to our success...
I'll be gone in a few hours and won't be back until the round is probably over...so I'll change my vote to Hermione for a potential shooting, still unsure, but she's the only one that I think is a wolf right now.

coming in late and seeing my name on the suspect list: not a good feeling. I know that I'm human but you will have to make up your own minds. I thought i was pretty vocal last round and I didn't cave to the KZ band wagon [A human BTW] - I'd like to go back through and see how many games Aviator has actually played if it's more than 2 or three, I'd have to say he's pulling the inexperience card and is a wolf. But will have to do the research and I don't really have time to in this round. my intuition still says Stewie has fur but I'm not willing to shoot him just yet. Think i"ll joine the Granger vote for now and tie it again..
edit: I meant vote with her not for her.

Here's the scenario: I can tip the scales here by voting for either Hermione or Sophie. Let's say I vote for Hermione. Barring any changes from the other players, Hermione's only chance of survival would be to vote Sophie.
But what is missing from the list above? STEWIE
I'm amazed that no one has questioned his complete silence this round. While it's true he didn't vote to save himself last round, that could have easily been a tactic to make himself look good. He had a 50/50 chance and he gambled on it. Several of you have stated that he is wolfy - take a chance and join me.

Who, I still have stewie on my radar and he has been silent or absent this lounge. I have a little bit of time to think about it.
Stewie always super sly and hard to read. And he has been surprisingly absent, but it is quite the time change between where he is and the US. If he doesn't make an appearance I may change my vote.

am changing my vote to stewie we'll see what happens.
I'm gonna switch my vote to stew as well

Sorry guys I have been away at a relatives all day with no internet access.
I tried to get on with no luck. And it's now 3am. I will vote for someone without a post. Just because the seer and such.
Sorry I missed the round it was beyond my control. Well, goodbye everyone.
