You're forgiven since you didn't play in a noob game so might not have seen it, but yes

A Gentle Guide to WW Nicknames

Here's an updated guide to help WW players (especially new players) understand nicknames better when playing WW games :cat: There's a brief version used in WW noob games. acanthuroidei = acan, acanth, acanthy, roid, roids, roidy, acanthyroidy AccidentFromFlorida = accident, florida, AFF...

Wah wah it wasn't a serious vote anyway.

Why did you choose Vis outside of tie reasons?

Vis did not give me good vibes today, and since votes are pretty important in this game (one of the most important game mechanics tbh), I went with my gut. I was gonna go with genny but there was no way to yeet genny tonight, so I went with second best option. I also wanted to give blue another chance.

@IvyMoose Ties are bad!! Remember that there is an option for both players to die or neither. It is much better to misyeet a single villager than get a tie between two potential villagers, because both have a chance to die in one day

Honestly at the end of noob game I grew fond of ties. Even though it ended so... so poorly. And would you rather unknowingly misyeet one villager or POTENTIALLY unknowingly yeet a villager, a wolf, a 3p, or two of the following? Or none at all? IDK i'm stubborn but willing to listen to statistics

 

[Aprilthearab]

Oh good you guys made a tie and attempted to make a three way tie, that should go well

 

[Aprilthearab]

Wah wah it wasn't a serious vote anyway.

You mean your vote in an attempt to create a three way tie was not a serious vote?

 

[Animal Midwife]

Wait what?

The j is silent.

 

[IvyMoose]

You guys didn't read the nickname thread! It's very important

WildZoo --> WZ --> DubZ

I did read the thread but unfortunately I was reading it as Dub-Z rather than dubz... like two vs one syllable... it made sense in my head as one syllable.

 

[supershorty]

The j is silent.

[Melchizedek]

My ISO is limited or sketchy?


But also why passes??? If you think they are sketchy vote them?

It’s sketchy. your reads on me, AM, genny, we’re lackluster and had no real reasoning behind them.

My neWW years resolution is to be nicer.

 

[WildZoo]

The j is silent.

No no, it's the Spanish pronunciation

No I explained later my reasoning

The single syllable pronunciation is more typical, but two-syllable has occurred

 

[Animal Midwife]

Manatee. It's time for a heart to heart.

Any vote less than two hours to close should be serious.

It's important to vote your wolfiest read, not just whichever votes are leading until it comes to marvolo.

I'd rather yeet my strongest wolf read and hope I chose a wolf.

The stats are clear cut when you don't know the tie mechanic. Sometimes it only kills the tie maker.

The bowlers were all abuzz in the alley with the news of Mod!Cubs' 40th birthday. And after such a dominating performance last night, they were still in awe of those fantastic scores. The celebration was going splendidly and the singing of "Happy Birthday!" was so harmonious that it caused everyone to forget their competitive disagreements with each other. All was at peace on this glorious day!

Spoiler: Dead is...

No one.

It is now Night 1. Get your actions in! Night cycle ends at 10 AM ET or as soon as all finalized actions are submitted.

Oho!

 

[violetvett]

...now what was that about ties again?

 

[Viscernable]

I have so many pages to read but I’m so tired. I just want to play stardew.

 

[Melchizedek]

So you’re voting for someone you weren’t actually wolf reading?

I ISO’d her first when I got home and felt comfortable keeping my vote there over everyone else on the board. She had an early game post about noob!weirdness that was hedgey and didn’t really say anything. Felt like posting just to post. There was also a point where she asked someone about their read on genny and then just never discussed it further, and her VV vote was kinda outta the violet.

 

[WildZoo]

...now what was that about ties again?

That they're bad?

 

[samac]

...now what was that about ties again?

ITS THE EXACT SAME THING THAT HAPPENED REPEATEDLY IN YOUR NOOB GAME.

I hope they’re both village. Tbh Blue felt genuine to me in her reaction.

 

[kaydubs]

Oh good, you explained it. I can go back to sleeping.

O_O thank you for this.
1) if any vote less than two hours to close should be serious, then W, R, and S (days I work) votes will likely be no votes for me then.
2) What is the purpose of voting the wolfiest read, despite leaderboard results? If you know they won't be yeeted, then why, essentially, "waste" your vote that night?
3) I do see the "hope to chose a wolf" logic.
4) unsure what you are meaning "stats are clear cut when you don't know the tie mechanic." Like you think you know the stats but not really?
This was also a D1 vote so (since I didn't read HALF the thread) did any of us really have good reads on anyone?

 

[Animal Midwife]

...now what was that about ties again?

Well, now we have a mechanically wasted cycle, but hopefully the discussion can be used for tomorrow.

 

[puppydogtor]

I'm more shocked about Ivy's attempt at a 3 way tie than the fact that nobody died

 

[kaydubs]

I did read the thread but unfortunately I was reading it as Dub-Z rather than dubz... like two vs one syllable... it made sense in my head as one syllable.

Don’t worry, DubZ typically will respond quicker than I. So (k)dubs vs DubZ is maybe moot?

 

[Animal Midwife]

O_O thank you for this.
1) if any vote less than two hours to close should be serious, then W, R, and S (days I work) votes will likely be no votes for me then.

Just vote before you know you're going to be absent.

2) What is the purpose of voting the wolfiest read, despite leaderboard results? If you know they won't be yeeted, then why, essentially, "waste" your vote that night?

If you argue enough, they can be yeeted.

3) I do see the "hope to chose a wolf" logic.

This was also a D1 vote so (since I didn't read HALF the thread) did any of us really have good reads on anyone?

I had two village reads by EOD so that's better than nothing for me.

I just meant there's no way to tell who (if anyone) is going to die in a tie.

 

[IvyMoose]

I'm more shocked about Ivy's attempt at a 3 way tie than the fact that nobody died

Curious as to why?

 

[justafluff]

@bluestoat I'm so happy you didn't die!!!

 

[youngkal]

It’s sketchy. your reads on me, AM, genny, we’re lackluster and had no real reasoning behind them.

My neWW years resolution is to be nicer.

I mean okay but like D1 and youre playing as i remember so imma count you safe for now. What more would you have liked me to give?

I'm more shocked about Ivy's attempt at a 3 way tie than the fact that nobody died

I also dont like that there was no vote at all, like even if there was a random vote yesterday that never got changed I would feel better

I feel the same but then the WIFOM knows she’s crafty enough to fake that “let me try posting my reads before I die” post

 

[puppydogtor]

Curious as to why?

It was just extremely chaotic imo, that's all

 

[kaydubs]

Oh good, you explained it. I can go back to sleeping.

Jeez I take it back. I just go to the writeup. CUBSSSSS

Okay but why is April so low? I’m not seeing that.

Am I required to push further if I ask a question and then I get an answer that satisfies my curiosity?

What are your tentative village points for Mel/AM/genny? I especially find genny hard to read

Mostly feels based on their interactions. Not to the level of "wow lock village", more like "these things feel more village to me than not". Good enough for D1.

 

[IvyMoose]

Just vote before you know you're going to be absent.

D1 is obviously hard, but I get it.

If you argue enough, they can be yeeted.

You severely overestimate my capabilities lmao

It was just extremely chaotic imo, that's all

I am chaotic person btw I just hide it very well bc it is no sOcIaLlY AcCePtAbLe

 

[WildZoo]

Okay but why is April so low? I’m not seeing that.

Someone summarized it earlier, but there's just no...oomph to her posts. She hasn't pushed anyone. She's been here but she's not really doing much of anything. I didn't understand where some of her reads were coming from and it was not the feeling that I'm used to getting from village April, even when we disagree on stuff. Could be some of that is her being busy with school but it just feels off, altogether.
