Greetings,

It is excited to play in this setup, since it seems to have a lot of outguess and mechanical aspects that look interesting. That said, it has looked through past iterations of this setup and of another series of setups that appear to share a name with it, and it has found that there has been a lot of past discussions about whether Wolves will group up onto a number together, or select three different numbers.

Given our drafting results, it believes there is a high likelyhood that scum did not group together, though it doesn't want to rule anything fully out of hand. It also thinks that among players who bid Non Single Digit Numbers (perhaps excluding 10) there is likely to be a scum. It seems like a good scum strategy to bid a number that is not single digits to prey upon the mentality of players who think "Submit a number, lowest wins" and aim to outguess others in the 1-9 range.
This is the law, written in the stars and seeds: in the end, all things must fail. They are old as the stars.
But not older.

And you, who have your human heart again, know all their secrets still.
This is the truth you will use to break them, to rend chains apart and set their prisoners free:
no one else has ever loved this way before.

It is of the opinion that this is a very defensive post that doesn't seem to have a prediction for how on guard it is. Yes, can you explain to it why you felt the need to bring up and defend yourself from an attack that hasn't even been levied?

Further, it thinks that the major element of this game is draft speculation and reading into player mentality for the choices that are made. Why shut that down?

It had considered, during its examination of prior games, calculating how often each single digit number is chosen and choosing that one.

Instead it opted that it should go for 1, since there was a chance others would be too shy to try and take it.

It knows that this was likely said in jest but it is now interested in what your opinion on the draft outcome is, if you do infact have one?
