Hm. Why bring this up when no one was voting DocOc?
People were chatting above me about feeling weird about Doc Ock. I was just sharing I think it's pointless to vote there atm because I suspect a mod kill is incoming, and wasting a vote is not a good idea when we haven't bagged any wolves. I mean, unless they're active in wolf chat, it seems like they have quit the game.

Unless you think samac or I are wolfing, you don't need to be concerned about this until a deepwolf flips.
Flipping a deep wolf would mean convincing multiple people that someone they’re village reading is actually a wolf, yes?

I say that because it seems unlikely that anybody who’s up for yeet tonight could even come close to being considered as someone who is widely village-read.
 
How long it feels doesn't change how long it's actually been though. Your reads might be wrong but, again, that has nothing to do with how long it's been unless one misyeet means doomsday to you.

I think the 36/12s are misleading. We’ve only had 2 cycles, and considering we didn’t get any flips from the D1 cycle because the tie results, it’s still a very early game.

You’re both right. I just feel extremely exhausted and this game feels like it’s been going on forever when it really hasn’t. The lack of “good” flips (aka wolves being yeeted) is also wearing on me even though I know it is still early in the game. Hence why I’m feeling fidgety and wanting to change my reads, because somethings clearly not working
 
RvB is a bad game to compare to here. Samac was village for all but the very end of that game when she got converted, so for 95% of it you were talking to village samac. I wouldn’t use it as a bellwether for analyzing a wolf!samac game
Okay yes, she was village for most of the game before being converted. Technically not 95% but that’s a moot point. However, the goats game was almost a year ago and it was her first time wolfing and the only other time she’s wolfed. I never played that game and I only read the first few pages as a tot. Should I go and read it? Probably, but I barely have enough time to read this thread rn

That's a pretty black-and-white take, but yes you have to convince people to yeet wolves.

Bro
I meant that deep wolves are usually called that because they’re deep in the village bloc. Usually they’ve bussed one or more of their packmates.
Like LIS is a deep wolf as demonstrated in England, or Chaos in the cursed Olympics game that still haunts my nightmares

And if someone is a deep wolf, then a lot of people are village reading them. Hence it takes more convincing to get people to vote for a deep wolf than someone who’s been in the POE for several days

Hiding in the bloc is neither a requirement for being a deepwolf nor is it exclusive to deepwolves.

A deepwolf is just someone that hard busses a partner.

No.

No.

Deep wolves are wolves who specifically are bussing and wolf reading their packmates.

You can be in the village blocc and not be a deep wolf. Powerwolfing requires such.

See Dubz, April, and Barks in Emojis (sorry Kras you were not in the village blocc). They were power wolfing and being wildly village read. Not deepwolfing.
 
Unvote YK
Vote Visc


1. I’m trying to solidify the divide between these two because I’m not in the mood for another tie and I don’t trust the rest of you hooligans while I’m driving home.
2. @justafluff @potentialsheltervet your complaints about me have been registered. Can we crack some of the people more in the PoE and if I’m wrong then by all means vote me.

It's like 20 min before the deadline, but I'd just like to say that I'm relatively confident in my Vis vote still.

Wolfy to neutral:
sporty, april
Octo
yk
fluff
Village lean: violet, psv, Zenge, Mel, alley
Village: samac, puppy, AM, meats, Lawpy
Idk if this is just Vis's style or not (maybe a vet can help me out there?) but I feel like this is a weirdly high villagey to wolfy ratio? It's just weird to me that a villager would have so many village reads so early on.

Both of these quotes from the last page are also pretty wolf for me.
Hm. Why bring this up when no one was voting DocOc?
Doc Ock in general is a pretty easy target rn, so I don't like this very much.

Pings from the tone of this
I'm not a fan of just saying "tone". Doesn't really contribute much. Maybe you could elaborate @Viscernable ?
 
svissy pls, what are your thoughts?
The youngkal wagon and mine both seem “stiff”, but I’ve never been any good at that in-the-moment understanding of when there are w/v vs v/v wagons. Something about it feels like there isn’t enough thread activity and vote shifting/unplaced votes for there to be a wolf on the board.

You were wolf reading YK earlier no? What changed?

Okay, I get your point. Why are they called deep wolves if they aren’t deep within the village bloc? I thought that’s where the name came from.

Ok fine. unyeet Mel yeet Vis
I'm inclined to believe YK and feel good that she shared the protection info to help her case. Like, if she was a wolf that was yeet proof, why share now? I feel she could have used that info way better as a wolf -the way Dana bluffed in our game.
ugh hate to waffle again
 
I blocked yk night 1 and april night 2 as they were my wolfiest reads who I felt were less consensus wolf read so would be most likely to be doing the pack kill

I’ve felt better about their content last night and today. They’ve been considering multiple people, seem to come from a wolfhunting standpoint, and I don’t see the point of claiming a previous yeet avoidance as a wolf
