[WildZoo]

Was anything learned from this?

Not that I'm aware of

Not that I'm aware of either.

 

[WildZoo]

Yes thats what I was referring to. Dubz and I came out on thread and talked about bounties. This person had already been voting then had to actively had been looking for a way to also place a bounty, cause why bother if the rule was either/or? Then it just appeared and we have no idea why. Im wondering if tots have some kind of collective engagement in this game? Is that a crazy thought?

Nothing is too crazy for this game. For all we know our nooblets have secret schemes.

 

[alleycat03]

Ok shorty you wanna see emotional cubs? It’s ramping up because y’all are doing that thing again where you take something I say and completely miss the point and then everyone piles on the misinterpretation.

I’m still not really sure what this was in reference too? What did we all miss the point on? Your bounty placement?

8 of 11 players voted

Not sure if this was intentional or not, but there were 9 people voting. So either someone’s vote didn’t count (because they had a secret bounty) or it’s possible it was just a mistake. KD, I apologize if it was a mistake and I’m reading too much into it.

barks
chaos
Vis
AM
genny
cubs
shorty
alley
Zenge

I really like this reads list. Mine goes something like:


Wolfy-
Barks


Wolfy side of neutral-
Vis
Genny

Neutral-
AM
Cubs
Chaos

Village side of neutral-
Zenge
Dubz
shorty

Can you explain Chaos’ placement?

 

[alleycat03]

Can you explain Chaos’ placement?

off of the top of my head, he has felt okay to me. I liked the article he shared with us and several of his posts. I’m in bed and about to sleep but I can start there tomorrow with an ISO. But overall he hasn’t really pinged me and I’ve liked the posts that I recall. He is also squarely in neutral so it’s not like a very strong read? I didn’t really order people within the categories. Sorry if I didn’t make that clear

 

[supershorty]

Not ordered unless specified:

Village leans:
alley
Zenge
Dubz

Neutrals (ordered):
genny
cubs
AM

POE:
Chaos
Barks
Vis

I can give reasonings tomorrow, I’m tired and want to go to bed now, but I’ll take a closer look at Barks’ and Chaos’ posts tomorrow when I have time.

 

[kaydubs]

Not sure if this was intentional or not

it was intentional but I will not disclose why at this time.

 

[kaydubs]

imma close. Let’s see what’s to see…results pending

 

[WildZoo]

Ok so I had a WW dream and it involved the bounties and I think we should try having the highest bounties on someone other than the person who gets voted out?

 

[kaydubs]

NIGHT 1 (in 2 parts cause sdn)

Witnesses report they heard multiple shots fired through out the night.

Seems the players weren’t satisfied with the earlier death (no surprise from this group really).

Spoiler: Dead is

surprisingly no one. But this mod will be laying low just in case.

in other news, a person of interest, code name “Lawpy,” had several bounties out on him (including one he placed himself) and was reported to be on the run. During the night, witnesses report seeing a missile (!) obliterate his last known location. It appears the missile and bounties were unrelated 🤔​

Omg sdn why are you so awful with posts anymore

 

[Chaostrodon]

So , which of you all attacked me

Told y’all I didn’t need to place bounties on Lawpy to kill him

Though it sounds like I may have wasted my only Lawpy-missile.

 

[genny]

This is much less death than I was expecting

 

[WildZoo]

This is much less death than I was expecting

Yeah I thought we were all supposed to be dead already

 

[alleycat03]

I am still suspicious of barks. I am planning on going back and looking at her posts in England but that’ll have to wait a bit.

*****
My basement flooded. I hopped out of bed into a giant puddle at 6:30am. Sooooo I’ll be back later once that’s handled.

[supershorty]

Sounds like death was attempted, but obviously no one succeeded. Interesting.

 

[supershorty]

Can you explain more?

Actually, I'm curious - when you placed a bounty yesterday, was it just a yes/no thing, or could you specify what the bounty was?

 

[WildZoo]

Well it's a bit jumbled because dream, but I think the point was the bounty is useless if the person who it is on ends up dying during the day. Like maybe it ends up affecting night actions somehow if it's on someone who doesn't get voted out.


It was just a yes/no. No specific amount. So by highest bounty I mean like, the highest number of bounty "votes" I guess.

 

[supershorty]

Okay, that's what I was getting at.

I think I want to start today pressuring Barks, but I can't decide if I want to vote or bounty, and I still need to go through some of her previous village games (I feel up to date on her wolf games since WWedding wasn't that long ago and I reread Emojis during that game). I won't have time to do that until after silks tonight though.

 

[Viscernable]

Dubz I think astral projecting into the mod’s mind to give strategy suggestions is frowned upon.

 

[Viscernable]

Kd specified to me that bounties are a daytime thing. It’s possible she was just talking about placing bounties, but context sounded like it meant they are void at the end of a day cycle.

I won't have time to do that until after silks tonight though.

I feel bad for being boring and not properly playing around with kd’s cool new mechanics, but since bounties didn’t appear to do anything yesterday (for the people they were placed on (at least for me), for the people placing them (as far as has been reported), for the people voting for bountied and eliminated player, or for the people voting for bountied not-eliminated players (as far as has been reported)) and I don’t really have any other ideas for how they would affect the game, I’m sticking to voting since I actually know how I can affect the game that way. Idk how to wolfhunt with a bounty.

I do wonder if there was any benefit to being the first person on the votes for a bountied player, sort of like being the first person to actually find the person IRL, but

I'm leaning toward voting for similar reasons.

 

[WildZoo]

Well maybe the order of events does matter. Bounty placed before the first vote or something. Idk I still want to explore it.

 

[Animal Midwife]

@Chaostrodon, @Barkley13, and @cubsrule4e can I hear some updated reads?

 

[genny]

I’m inclined to vote vis again. Not sure why mkg went out over Vis yesterday.

 

[cubsrule4e]

I got no notifications of any kind in regard to chaos. So he was either attacked by someone else, or my bounty caused some kind of attack but I was not notified of anything like “you attacked chaos it was successful/unsuccessful.” So frustratingly, it appears we still have no info on what the bounty does or how it works.

 

[cubsrule4e]

Kd specified to me that bounties are a daytime thing. It’s possible she was just talking about placing bounties, but context sounded like it meant they are void at the end of a day cycle.

Well in that case my bounty definitely did nothing.

 

[WildZoo]

I’m inclined to vote vis again. Not sure why mkg went out over Vis yesterday.

I think it was because she had more votes

 

[cubsrule4e]

@Chaostrodon, @Barkley13, and @cubsrule4e can I hear some updated reads?

Same as last night except moving shorty slightly less village as I’ve never really seen her frustrated as she was with mkg. The content seemed village as far as saying mkg wasn’t doing her part but I dunno, definitely something new for me to analyze. Similar to how she pointed out she had never seen vis go that bonkers over some accusations.
I still feel like genny is kinda shady, and I don’t care much for anyone who was on the mkg vote. It was just the easiest place to vote for sure. The wagon broke down somewhat and then somehow reformed just as easily as it started. Granted a vis wagon had also concurrently formed, but mkg still ended up getting axed.

I didn’t get any notification about my Lawpy missile either (not even that I had fired it successfully). Not the same as a bounty, and it could be because it was an action that doesn’t actually affect the game and it was included in my role as a joke, but I wanted to put that info out there.

What do you think about Vis’ statement about bounties being tied to day cycle? Two bounties were out but those people were never in the lead, and when dubz switched to mkg she was already the vote leader. So I’m wondering if the bounty has to be in place on a before before they become the leading vote getter. Maybe they die earlier if they reach a vote majority at some point before close? I dunno. People seemed more turned off by the bounty thing but like dubz I still want to test it out. Barks seems to have a bit of sus as does vis (not seeing that one though). Maybe me and dubz put a bounty on each of them if that’s where people are looking to vote next.

So are you uninterested in a Vis wagon then?

 

[cubsrule4e]

Not at this time, no.

 

[Animal Midwife]

Not at this time, no.

Why?

 

[Viscernable]

Barks seems to have a bit of sus as does vis (not seeing that one though).

I’m confused

 

[Zenge142]

So , which of you all attacked me

Can anyone else confirm that they received any sort of night results? You don’t have to spill the beans on what, I’m just looking for confirmation that someone else got some sort of night result.

I did not get anything. And if this:

Witnesses report they heard multiple shots fired through out the night.

Implies multiple people were fired upon, I’m assuming multiple people would have gotten some sort of result. Anyone?

Nothing here

 

[genny]

Hm. Not sure if I like this. There may be reasons not to admit to being attacked. I’m wondering if you know what I mean?

 

[Zenge142]

Hm. Not sure if I like this. There may be reasons not to admit to being attacked. I’m wondering if you know what I mean?

I don't. I'm not asking everyone to participate. I'm just looking for literally anyone to confirm that they got some sort of written night result. Because otherwise, It's a weird claim that only chaos got any confirmed results, and that's concerning.

 

[cubsrule4e]

I’m confused

I’m saying I’m not reading you wolfy but others are.

 

[Animal Midwife]

I’m saying I’m not reading you wolfy but others are.

Oh, so your response to me meant no as in you agree.

 

[cubsrule4e]

Why?

No reason to? Also I think her outburst read more frustrated village in defense mode vs shorty who was getting spicy but was the aggressor in her scenario with mkg. Similar actions/tones but different sides of the fence. I have also seen vis get a little like that before, but never seen shorty play anything more or less than even-keeled.

 

[cubsrule4e]

Oh

Oh, so your response to me meant no as in you agree.

Oh sorry, I read your post as “are you interested in a vis wagon” so I said no.

 

[cubsrule4e]

Why does mobile reply always start typing above the quote????

 

[Chaostrodon]

Heres reads :

Dubz : High volume , low signal d1 as I explained before. I dont like that she has a retaliatory read on me just bc I voted her and then moved off , even tho I mentioned the main reason I moved off was bc of what kd said. Maybe I shouldnt put that much stock into what kd said

Shorty : Something about her seems off , and I dont completely buy the mkg aggression

AM: Is being more reserved , being more careful with what she is posting .

And ofc the three of you are hard tr ing each other like in most other games. So I expect atleast one of you is going to be very surprised.

I dont think Cubs making a bounty w/o posting is as big of a deal as most people think. I dont think vis comments on mkg were that big of a deal either.

Currently null on cubs , genny and barks. Everyone else is a slight tr
