Anesthesia Redux - A Basics WW Game Sign Ups & Game Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
You read me completely wrong, if that's any consolation. 🙂
I wasn't implying that at all. The game was silent for a while, so I just went "Hey, where is everyone?" That's all. Don't read too much into it since -- as we're seeing -- you appear to be grossly misreading me.
As mentioned early on in all of this, if I ask something it's because the message was unclear or ambiguous to me. The only way I can solve this game is by figuring out where everyone is at on the thread. So lynching me with neither silence me nor discourage me from doing more in the future.
 
Also take my opinion as a grain of salt because well because you don’t have to listen to me if you don’t want to @Stroganoff but I’ve found in lots of games someone doesn’t like one of AM’s questions and adds on the “it was illogical” and that’s why I don’t like it here’s why. And people are like nah seems like normal AM to me. And then it goes on forever and ever and distracts from the wolf hunting.

I think AM was asking those questions to ruffle your feathers because your posts came across as jokey but in a kinda awkward way (idk if that’s the right word but it’s what I’ve got). Either way at the moment I don’t really think either one of you are wolves.
 
I'm getting the feeling that strog is a frustrated villager. Will be doing a more through reread later. aka tomorrow hopefully
 
I recommend my strategy of accidentally just falling asleep in the middle of the questions and make them wait till morning :heckyeah:
I'm not getting lynched on D1! :laugh:
FFS I'm not fancymylotus. Poor girl.

:whoa:
Geez, y'all got off to a spicy start today! Got two exams tomorrow that I am ~not even remotely prepared for~
:hello:
Dude study and kick those exams' asses. We got like 23 hours till lynch close lmao.

I'll go sleep if you go study. Bet?

so all I had was one quick readthrough of the past few pages, but current vibe is frustrated villager for Strog and I'm feeling probably one wolf in the hubbub looking for an easy D1 lynch target. Not sure who yet and don't have time to analyze that today, doubt everyone involved is wolf, probably no more than one.
I'm feeling the same actually. About ~1's a woof, and it may or may not actually be AM at this point.

I'm usually extremely laid back, but I'm not getting lynched D1 in WW. 😡

Why are people so echoy? I don't like it. You and barks. I get that people have the same reads but when you use the exact phrasing it runs me the wrong way. I don't like it. I'm also pretty sure it's mostly NAI for now but I'm keeping an eye on this

I was actually in the process of formulating my post before I even saw yours :shrug: don't know what to tell you but that was purely my read, sorry that there's not a lot of synonyms for "someone who doesn't seem like a wolf based on their defensiveness when they feel ganged up on". Really not a fan of sheeping others' reads since those can be so easily manipulated.

That I believe, I'm just saying it seems weird they all came out around the same time and had the exact same phrasing. I wanted to include yours for completeness because I tend to forget who said what
 
I feel like Strog is either spewing vill or is a caught wolf and trying to make as much noise as possible to see if he can get out of it.

Going to go with AM/Strog being most likely v/v for now.

Will come back with more reads tomorrow, probably

That's definitely a different way to say it! :laugh:

Interesting. I haven't played more than 4 pre-vet games total but I haven't seen AM being illogical or inconsistent with her questions as much as today. Usually when I psych myself out of my strange feels I end up regretting it. I'll think about this more especially as the game progresses.

So random: How is the anesthesia for birbs different than say a doggo?

]because your posts came across as jokey but in a kinda awkward way (idk if that’s the right word but it’s what I’ve got). Either way at the moment I don’t really think either one of you are wolves.
Humor is NAI for me. Maybe if I get to play more than a couple games per year I won't be misread so often/easily.

(I was gonna make a twisted joke about the red highlighted part like "Hey Animal Midwife, our plan is working!" or something dumb like that.) Anyways thanks dolphin.

Not trying to be echoy, I honestly didn’t remember barks saying that when I wrote it.

Also what does NAI mean?

Well i guess I should say people accuse her of asking illogical questions, 9/10 I don’t think they are, I think people just don’t want to be questioned the way she does it. So in general if I’m going to lynch AM I like to have a much more concrete reason than someone telling me her questioning sounds illogical or “off” or “not normal AM” (that one is my favorite).

but like I said I’m reading the situation as village at the moment.

Barks didn't I did. Barks echoed my read on strogg basically right after I posted mine which could've been entirely coincidental. NAI = not indicative of affiliation

I gotchu. It's just slightly different than the last few games hence why I don't want to be kicking myself down the line if I don't keep an eye on her. I'll avoid tunneling but...idk. Need more context.
 
He was asking about D1 I think?

D1 works like "regular" lynch. It closes at a set time and whoever has the most votes at that time wins.

After D1, then the lynch closes whenever it hits >50% of players voting for the same person.

It is not that much different in practice, just forces people to be a bit more careful with their votes from D2 onwards.

Missed that part. I quite love maj though because discussion nearly doubles with this mechanic in play since last minute voting isn't even guaranteed.
 
Majority is basically if they get >50% of the field voting for them the lynch closes and they die immediately instead of waiting for the normal wafflefest. (I couldn't tell if you were serious or not so I explained)
Whoa, I don't remember that at all, and I played in a Basics last year. I didn't think a Basics game had sudden death rules.

*puts away the maple syrup* 🙁

It's not sudden death since it's completely in the players' control. You pay attention to tallies, all is well. You vote like a goober, you kill people quickly. It just mean less either/or (since smaller numbers could push maj), fewer bandwagons, and more thinking/vote movement. It's typical of standard WW but we mostly run a plurality site for some reason.

I’m gonna go with coincidental since it was when I happened to come on and read the thread. If it makes you feel better I placed a lynch vote before you did 😛
 
I like it too. I view it as slightly wolf-leaning :vamp:

"Oooopps I was deliberating too much and missed a vote for my packmate. Shucks!"
I've won every game with them as village but one (two year absence lul) so I gladly welcoming this challenge/dynamic! 😏
 
FYI I'll be out of pocket until tomorrow evening and doing some driving and studying. Hopefully back sooner than later (7-8 PM?) so I can do a massive binge catchup.
1) Not sure what out of pocket means
B) Every time someone preemptively says I won't be here for xyz I get suspicious
Cute puppy) Although I'm willing to admit it might be pertinent in your case
 
This is an appropriately timed theme for me lol.

Forget to check SDN for oneeeee night and already miss like three pages lol. I have some reading to do.
 
Btw @WildZoo anesthesia is my second rotation and it was our first course last fall (over by early September) so I appreciate this refresher😍

(Also I looove it. Easily jumped up into my top 5 fave subjects.)

I have anesthesia as my dead last rotation lol. But I also have shelter med first so still doing a lot there. I agree. I like anesthesia more than I thought I would.
