It’s a pretty basic question. I don’t think it’s strange for AM to have answered the way she did, that’s very in character for her play style. But it would have been nice to have a greater depth of discussion on the matter.

I’m not sure why you’re so fixated on my asking her for her thoughts.

Because you're pinging the **** out of me and I don't know how to interpret that.

 

[Zenge142]

Because you're pinging the **** out of me and I don't know how to interpret that.

Because I asked AM for her thoughts and mixed up FTFs two games?

Okay then.

 

[supershorty]

No. Because you're spending time tinfoiling on mechanics that none of us understand right now or have any evidence to support, and that makes me uncomfortable. It's coming across very differently from you than from alley, for example. alley seems excited about mechanics and loves to tinfoil. You already seem like you're trying to figure out a way to manipulate people's voting with the bounties/lack of, and it feels off.

But yes, you forgetting that CYO II was her game is a small ping as well.

I thought this was the noob game for a sec and was about to be like WAIT WHY AM I ON ANYONE'S VOTE

 

[Zenge142]

This seems like a huge stretch, I’m not that crafty, but okay.

And it might behoove village to discuss these mechanics and make a decision as a group to better understand them.

Since, in casino for example, Genny and Mayo pretty unilaterally decided to test things out in a way that got a villager killed.

So then why not discuss it before voting? Not that one vote makes a big difference in the scheme of things, especially early on D1, but why not discuss first?

Today, when sdn crashed, I was joking with AM that I always crash the site when I run games. She said clearly sdn can’t handle simultaneous KD games. I’m still chuckling.

Unyeet barks
Yeet MKG

I wanna know what it feels like to yeet her.

(This is a joke vote)

So, do I tally it or…?

 

[Zenge142]

You can’t railroad me for trying to discuss it with AM, and then turn around here and complain that I placed a vote without first trying to generate further discussion.

 

[genny]

Oh good, it’s not a dumpster fire over here.

Give us time!!!

 

[supershorty]

I'm not railroading you, Zenge. I'm allowed to say that you're pinging me.

 

[kaydubs]

Give us time!!!

NO. NOT THIS TIME.

 

[Chaostrodon]

oh so you are going to follow 2 joke votes with a serious vote/bounty? S U S

You sound nervous

This seems kind of reactive when he ... didn't?

and you sound chaotic.


Im getting slight townpings from alley , and surprisingly no one else. Maybe not playing WW for a while has made me rusty

Why does my making a similar point about mkg's post to what you pointed out sound chaotic?

 

[Zenge142]

I'm not railroading you, Zenge. I'm allowed to say that you're pinging me.

You’re complaining that I’m tinfoiling about mechanics, specifically highlighting my asking AM about it.

And then simultaneously complaining that I briefly placed a vote, before generating more discussion about mechanics.

You can’t have it both ways.

I'm specifically saying that YOU said it might benefit village to discuss the mechanics and make a decision AS A GROUP to better understand them. That's not what you did. You made a decision and then decided to discuss it after the fact when people called you out on it.

 

[Chaostrodon]

Or maybe its bc theres a lot of mechanics talk. Now theres nothing wrong with talking mechanics but when someone's iso is really long and theres only mechanics talk in it , that makes me slightly uneasy. So,

Unvote Visc , Vote Dubz

My asking AM about it wasn’t spurred on by anyone calling me out about anything.

Furthermore if there are rewards to be had from voting out someone with a bounty on them, which seems logical, I can want to be the first one on that vote to potentially reap the greatest rewards, AND simultaneously think was should discuss mechanics further. They’re not mutually exclusive.

 

[supershorty]

This feels like when we were v/v fighting in CYO II so I'm going to leave it alone for now and revisit later.

 

[Zenge142]

Does anyone want to claim wolf right off the bat? Make this easy? I’ve got treats!

Or claim villager? I could probably whip up some village flavored treats. I don’t want anyone to feel left out.

 

[alleycat03]

So, do I tally it or…?

Yes. I want to break the tie!

 

[Chaostrodon]

Speaking of mechanics , I would probably change my vote to a bounty at the end of day to see what would happen. But I feel bounties arent as good for pressuring as good old votes

 

[genny]

I could probably whip up some village flavored treats.

This sounds like something a wolf would say.

It was poor wording for sure.

you can't do that. no takesie-backsies.

Similar?

Either way , thats not the only occasion. You just seem more chaotic this time in general. I guess its the lack of spreadsheets

I have a spreadsheet 🤔
I'll post the vote tracker after vote close as usual. Casino was the only game where I live-spreadsheeted and everyone could watch as I went.

[Animal Midwife]

Sure. CYO-II, RvB both come to mind

I know the other games have been addressed, but I'm certain I was the player most polarized to either/or in RvB. In fact, either/or helped fuel my misyeet.

 

[Zenge142]

Seriously? I get people being a little wary of wanting to claim wolf, after the enchilada hat debacle, but no one even wants to claim villager? I make great treats. Smh.

Did you have these treats on you when you got mauled for the treats you offered the wolves in WWedding, or were you only carrying the wolf treats at the time?

Village treats are fresh! Homemade! Right out of the oven.

No leftovers for them!!

Lies, you haven't used the oven today unless you're just using it to store the treats.

OUTTED

 

[Viscernable]

I didn't care for his discussion with Midwife with the hypothetical where 2 people are exactly the same read and one has a bounty, one doesn't, where do you vote.

I understand what he was getting at, but it's kind of a nonsensical situation. You almost never have 2 people who are EXACTLY the same, even if you're categorizing them in the same spot on a reads list. And him just blindly voting on someone with a bounty on them to see what it does didn't sit right with me. But it's the kind of thing that village!Zenge would do and it would trigger the crap out of me, so...

Yeah agreed with the last sentence. It feels like village Z to me.

 

[mkg323]

guys I've hit my peak, who would have thought I'd be good at getting nooblets to misyeet each other. If you'd like to salt yeet me for murdering your nooblets now is the time

 

[Viscernable]

Press X to doubt

 

[Viscernable]

I do agree with these, though. I like discussing where we’re going with new mechanics, and I like seeing from that discussion what mindset people seem to be approaching them from.

 

[genny]

Since, in casino for example, Genny and Mayo pretty unilaterally decided to test things out in a way that got a villager killed.

You say that like it's a bad thing. Village won, right?

Eye on the final prize/bigger picture!

Village-flavoured treats sounds like another way to say wolf treats

 

[Zenge142]

I’m saying village as a whole might like more discussion, as opposed to a more chaotic unilateral one.

 

[Zenge142]

You’re too late for that joke vis! Genny already said it! I saw you looking at her paper!

 

[Viscernable]

Zenge I’m not telling you a villager after you threatened to make village-flavoured treats
