Back to Basics: Hiking the NH48 WW - Game Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
How are you guys reading cubs Pawsy?
Oh, and paws was being sketchy before she disappeared. But haven't had a chance to look back at that -- I can't remember who she was pushing yesterday other than ziggy stardust

I think it's either them or you. I think Paws is slick enough to be towards the front end of a bus... and you have had more wolves voting for you as a grand total.

So I'd like to hear from Cubby
 
I don't like the stagg vote and I think we should vote snowy.

Noted by Mel in D1.

Push harder. Why do we need to switch?

Oh, I thought I was at a higher number then two. This whole discussion just has me triggered.

Unlynch Stagg
Lynch Snowy

Which was later understood by AM.

Check your votes!

I don't like how a wagon formed early as RVS and THEN reasons to lynch were found, that doesn't seem right to me.

Snowy for trying to throw gas on the fire with ZJ v.s. SAR and then when I called her out, she took a stance, and still decided to vote for paws?

ETA: Sorry not as quick with the posting lately, I know I should have explained earlier, but I'm out of it.

Mel further explained his thoughts on why he's pursuing Snowy.

That's the only option so yeah. I'm going to take that as them feeling threatened, so

Lynch Snowy

for now

AM followed suit as consistent with her D1 vote.

So obviously I didn't see this til after Lynch. Are you still looking this direction? I'll
Lynch snowy
For now. @Animal Midwife was she village or wolf in the last couple games? I have a faint memory of her being called out for something similar but can't remember alignment. Running to class now

But Pawsy soon followed. Maybe she realized Snowy was in danger based on what AM and Mel stated?


But good guy or bad guy village

Good guy village.

I think these posts are referring to Snowy's affiliation in past few games, and Pawsy felt Snowy is in danger of getting lynched and went with it.

The rest of the voting pattern looks pretty concerning.
 
For the first time quite in a while, I feel comfortable leaving endgame. I feel like there's enough collaboration now for it to work. Really makes me happy.

This is what I think happened. Plus also the dolphin vote and a rather harsh criticism towards Ziggy. And also later on tunneling me and Strog.
 
I'm still suspicious of cubs:

1) He never responded to my huge post from Day 4 (yesterday?) where I called out his irrationality and his confirmation bias.
2) He was the only one to vote to lynch me today (Day 5?) and did not change his vote in light of new information.
 
Hey btw @cubsrule4e I'd love to hear your reads

AM, Dina, bark - village

I guess strog outed himself as the tracker, which makes me look more at you as yall have been going at it pretty good lately. You made a few recent comments kind of going after AM as well. Lawper has come in and quietly swept himself under the rug and Im not sure how he did it. Shelter was on the block 2 days in a row and he comes on and does some word voodoo and no one has mentioned him again hardly.

WZ so all over the place with everyone I really have no idea.

After the curse fest and being "pissed IRL" I wasnt about to revisit that post. I obviously didnt change my vote because I wasnt around to see the new developments. Im a first timer but I assume "Sports was around someones tent" is basically saying theyre a wolf, no? But I guess theres nothing that says you couldnt have made that up to cause a complete swing in the votes.

To clarify, I dont think youre making it up, obviously as Sporty was outed as a wolf.
 
I guess just because my first instinct was strog, and no one had interest. Now all of the sudden multiple people have contigency lynched him, which makes me feel stronger about my initial thoughts.
^ Still doesn't excuse the confirmation bias.

Even when I took the time to address your concerns a few days ago, you still held onto preconceived notions. :shrug:

I guess maybe your posting style played a lot into it. A lot of times its ranty/emotional/volatile/confrontational so that could certainly give off a wolfish flare.

Question about the tracker: Do you pick someone each night to track/follow or is it just random information youre given about a player?
 
Thanks a lot, Village Protector. 🙄

  • Day 6 (today) - we lynch Sporty.
  • Night 6 (tonight) - Village Protector, flip a coin. Either protect yourself tonight, or protect me. The remaining wolf will have a 50/50 chance of success when going after either you or me, or a 100% chance of killing someone who is NOT you or me. Wolf, choose wisely.
  • Day 7 (tomorrow) - We figure out who the remaining wolf is and win the game.

:dead:
 
Night 6

iu

Less than a mile from the peak of yesterday's hike lies the peak of Mount Lincoln. The hikers decided a short walk to get another peak in the bag was worth it, even overnight. At the top, they watched the sun rise from 5,089 feet above sea level. On their way down Falling Waters Trail, as the name would imply, they came across several gorgeous waterfalls.

Cloudland Falls

Stairs Falls

But at the bottom, a headcount showed one of their group was missing.

Dead is @PippyPony, who was a villager with no special abilities.

It is now Day 7. Lynch will close at 10pm EST (approximately 21.5 hours from now).

A little curious why nobody made any suggestions on who to track tonight. Was kinda expecting someone to point me in the right direction.

I trust your insight. btw, the tracking is now seer level for clearing people.

No discussing night results before the writeup, strog.

Your initial post before your edit made it seem like you were talking about results.

HA! SUCK IT!

I totally assumed I was a goner last night and was freaking out a bit. Totes wasn't revealing information.
 
So I got lucky last night. :naughty:

I have intel to win the game, but I should go to bed and/or make some people squirm a bit. Hmmm...
Tbh it would be super cool for me if I could just like...not spend time overanalyzing everything when I could be studying instead
