Is there a point to joining a town right now? They haven't wiped everything yet, I don't think...

The way I see it, there's no point, and they're likely gonna wipe real soon.

I would just join a random town and fool around.

Still, I'm gonna wait and see what the majority of the guys from my old town are gonna do.

Well, rawr and edes specifically.

A fair number of you in my current town. But your probably right and it will reset.

I just got Hero AGAIN. That means I've been last man standing every single time.

There has GOT to be more to this equation than random chance. :/

The odds are... very small, to say the least!

Yeah. I've been part of the last night of a town that granted hero a few times now, but never gotten it myself.

I've always finished with the highest defense, most posts, most zombies killed, and most time spent out in the waste as well, though... maybe there's some other hidden factor?

Random chance. When the zombie brak the door, they start attacking random villager until a sufficient number ( equal to your home defence, noramlly) attack you, then kill you.  Often, the hero is the last to die, or the one that killed the most zombies on the last night.

Right. Basically, it's random chance but by no means pure chance or equal chance. Stuff you do CAN increase your odds.

If this is true, it is in stark contrast to what everyone has been saying on the forums, and much closer to what I've been arguing.

No and no...

Random chance is a big factor when it comes to everyone dieing at once...
I didn't kill any Zombs in the Crows on the last night, 2 did, around 20 each. I got LMS...
They also had strongholds while I only had a fort...

Means the zombie killed everyone before you. I remember get hero while we were 3 last in the town, my house was weaker than theirs, but they got attacked by way more zombies.

Obviously a better house isn't a guarantee. It's all odds in the end, but I think you can weight the odds in your favour.
