Sounds like you no longer think the empty role cards were town?

I might town read this post. It depends on what apoptosis does with it. I say this to encourage you, apoptosis, to proceed with any kind of follow-up so I can make that judgment. I have something in mind.

I'm going to cautiously town-lean apop and katie for being willing to discuss the nature of the role PM update. While I usually don't feel any sort of way about talking about mech, I feel like this comes from a genuine place of wanting to understand the game setup, and presumably the mafia has some idea about the game setup by now.

I am not certain I believe that Jay had no reads, because that didn't seem how he felt last night. But I won't be voting him today regardless.

 

[Jagged Jimmy Jay]

I had “reads”, but they were not remotely compelling — nothing I care to hold onto.

That's probably close enough that I need not split hairs about it.

How do you feel about katie's participation this morning?

I believe her confusion is genuine, though I don’t draw any affiliation insights from it.

I also hope she is able to feel better soon.

Spurs hasn’t seemed to miss a beat in the transition to Proper Day 1. Town read.

Hmmm.

Anyways, time to round. This is a particularly busy day--I am almost never double booked in clinic, but I am today--so I hope someone else (not just Jay) will help move the thread forward. I'll check in as I'm able.

 

[GoSpursGo]

Oh, +1 to this too obviously

Anyways, to rounds

Wow spurs and Jay are jumping in hot

I'm just over here sniffing glue tbh

I'm going with Hocus Pocus as my movie- my favorite not scary Halloween movie for sure!

Me too! I don't do scary

 

[beans2020]

I like Jay's thoughts on there potentially being a wolf in the players commenting on the weird role cards and I do think it's likely the wolves have always known they are wolves, just maybe specifics of their role were a bit unclear (or...ambiguous!! )

 

[beans2020]

Also i think I am village leaning dubz, however I still haven't played appreciably with wolf dubz soooooo take that with a grain of salt

From the beginning of thread or from her three posts since the role cards presumably flipped?

 

[kitzsuna]

I’m still a smidge confused but I’m more confident in what’s going on now lol

I do have the opportunity to do something very funny potentially

From a roleplaying perspective at least

Idk did you get two things in your pm? I got a gif that I thought was related to role at first with no follow up but then got a bit more direction later lol

 

[apoptosis09]

I started out with a blank role card, and when it got updated my response was "ok so the blank roles were probably town after all." I don't think I'd be thinking otherwise unless I got an alignment that suggested otherwise...

But I also don't see why wolf!jay would put that out there, unless to throw a red herring.

I'm usually on the lookout for powerwolf!dubz but I know she's been hella busy with work lately so idk that I'll put a lot of stock in that this time

 

[kitzsuna]

Also I have my first clinical skills osce today lmao wish me luck, I’m so nervous cause I’m bad at clinical skills 😅

Beginning of thread

 

[apoptosis09]

Fellas I got that Covid, bronchitis, sinusitis triple kill

That's the real horror movie

 

[beans2020]

Idk i still feel like the wolves were aware that they were scum at the beginning, at least I see no reason to not operate under that assumption for the time being

 

[beans2020]

Feel better Katie! That sounds horrendous

 

[katiemcat]

I don’t know that they did. I’ve got nothing to back that up but vibes tho.

 

[katiemcat]

Explains my state of feeling like death the past few days

 

[kitzsuna]

Yeah…I actually thought I was a wolf to start for reasons but i have since discovered I am not

So who is to say if real wolves know if they’re wolves or not. By now they should at least

 

[reddeadrobin]

This game is a psyop, I'm convinced of it

 

[GoSpursGo]

I like Jay's thoughts on there potentially being a wolf in the players commenting on the weird role cards

Did he say this? If he did I’m missing it

Also i think I am village leaning dubz, however I still haven't played appreciably with wolf dubz soooooo take that with a grain of salt

That’s bold regardless of the timeframe you’re talking about.

This may actually change my mind on the wolves knowing who they were N0 thing...hmmmm

This is kinda hedgy

Clearly, this game presents an awkward beginning. I think most of us have experienced that in some form or another.

A plausible interpretation is that the only concrete information players received (apart perhaps from role abilities) is whether or not they're in a wolf chat. I've been operating under that assumption, because it's hard for me to see how the game is playable otherwise. I doubt it's entirely that simple, but it's a starting point. However, this comes with some implications:

- I'd imagine that [ambiguous role card] is not just a town phenomenon. That would stand too high a risk of breaking the game, and our host is a major veteran of the job. So the wolves likely have some analogous experience too, and thus some genuine confusion (even if they are already in a wolf chat).

Given the air of confusion in the thread then, I think the wolves would feel extra incentive to participate in that commentary. I extracted the quotes above entirely by searching for the words "start" (i.e., has the game actually started) and "role" (i.e., what is this role card). This is probably not exhaustive as a result, because the search will only catch so much.

I suspect there's an above-average wolf presence among these posts. I'm sure there are villagers too. Even two wolves would be "above average".

I think for this reason I’m gonna focus more on today’s interactions

Ah. I still missed that post this morning

I guess I would question if Jay still feels that way after the update.

I agree with the latter part definitely; I think it's bold to assume for sure one way or the other

What are your thoughts so far, vampy? Any vibes?

 

[vampyrica]

unfortunately none whatsoever, i’m not used to this format (although entertaining).

i’m thinking based on role PMs being updated/further explained last night that wolves did not know their affiliation either? and only now has a wolf chat been created?

Both excellent opinions

 

[WildZoo]

I don't know how we can assume or know one way or another whether wolves knew they were wolves before the role PM updates so I don't know if all the speculation on it is going to be helpful. I'd err on the side of Jay's plan of treating the game as new post-PM updates

 

[WildZoo]

Which means we need to get down to business

Not me though, I need to get down to necropsying a deer
