Sheeping (or Barning) is the act of following a popular wagon or popular player with no independent intent. The term "sheeping" comes from the notion of a mindless sheep following a shepherd; the term "barning" is derived from "barnacle". Players who are frequently sheeped tend to be known as good scum hunters or thought very likely to be Town. Players who frequently sheep tend to be players who acknowledge that their play is weak or that they have no independent idea of what to do. Sheeping tends to lead to bandwagons. Players who consistently sheep tend to be seen as nuisances, difficult to read, and bad players simultaneously.
