So I do still like my wonder theory.

You seem certain about genny, and I’m not unwilling to consider that, it’s not like I’m known for reading her correctly, and I’m leaning you village this game, so if you’re sure, I’m willing to consider.

I’m torn on True. So many dead village voices had him in their POE. But I’m personally not sold. He reminds me of the True I fought with a few months ago in Stardew where he was a bit prickly but ultimately village.

I need to see more from Stagg Mayo obviously. Stayo? Mayggo?
I feel mostly okay about Alley but her attitude about yeeting Lumi for the fancy play just because it was a “Lie” tickles me. Something’s weird about that. Like imagine if I’d been yeeted in LaWWpy just because I “lied” to Dina about being a Lost wolf? It feels like an easy way to just “stick to your guns” and cause a village misyeet which I don’t like. Particularly one with a powerful PR (I believe the bloodhound claim). But like I said, I mostly feel good about Alley, it’s just that one little thing that tickles me.

I need to see a lot more from Woxy.

I’m not unwilling to consider MK given multiball and idk what I’m doing but she wouldn’t be my first choice.

In general I really have the same problem I had last year with CYO where people who are scum are legitimately scum hunting.
I am willing to reconsider genny, it's not like I'm 100% certain, but shorty is pretty good at reading her iirc so it does make me feel better that she also had her in her POE.

I should not be trusted to read True. I won't stand in people's way if they want to vote him. I don't think I'm seeing enough to do it myself.

I see what you mean about alley's stance on Lumi but it felt very in character for her.
I also see your fake claim to Dina as entirely different from Lumi's play here. Neither were necessary imo, both had some benefit for a villager, but there is also actually some decent scum advantage to doing what they did here, whereas there really wasn't for what you did in LaWWpy.

Agree on needing more from mayo and Woxy. I don't know what to do about mk.

Alien Bloodsucker (133)​

You are an Alien Bloodsucker.

Abilities

  • During the Day, you may vote for whomever you want eliminated.
  • Factional Kill: The Aliens may kill one player once during the game.
  • Factional Communication: If there are other Alien-aligned players, there will be an Alien QT that can be used pre-game and during the Night.
  • Bloodsucker: During the Night, you may PM me the name of another player. That player will turn into a Treestump (they will be unable to vote or perform actions for the rest of the game). No Alien may perform the factional nightkill on the same night that you do this.
Found the role that stumped me :/
****************
Interesting. May have been a villager with this ability using it as sort of a budget Vig kill?

Big if true. It means there’s a killing faction that didn’t kill last night.

Hmmm so with the alien bloodsucker ability. If whoever used the ability is not aligned with aliens and an alien faction exists, aliens would not have been prevented from performing a night kill as the normally would as stated in the role description. In addition, it appears that the ability can be used more than once, so anticipate more stumps to join #StumpSquad

Am I reading that wrong? It seems to say they could either factional kill or Tree Stump someone but not both in the same night.

What do you mean “if true” ? The bloodsucker is the only role that can stump people

“No Alien may perform the factional nightkill on the same night that you do this.”
Oh you're saying if the treestumper is actually an alien
 
****************
I don't think that's necessarily the case, if the person with the ability isn't an alien. Not quite sure how the mechanics would work though
See what I just posted. Asked AM in my role pm

See my post regarding this. It is entirely possible whoever stumped me isn’t alien aligned and an alien faction still exists and could’ve performed a kill.

Oho. Well. Then. Unless I’m missing something we have an alien faction that can kill and did not do so last night, opting to tree-stump instead

Oooooh. Hmm. Okay
 
Idk if mafia or wolf or SK treestumper would mean that they couldn't use a factional kill
Confirmed it only applies to the alien aff, so if any other aff used the treestumper ability it would have no effect on other night kills
 
I feel no closer to solving anything than I was when I woke up this morning

See, I have no idea why you wouldn't want to be a scum Mason, that sounds awesome.
I didn't feel like risking being alone. I don't really like lone scumming unless I'm some kind of awesome chaotic role.
 
Who is your POE right now?
Lumi is the only person I feel comfortable voting for right now, but I'm holding off until they get a chance to show up today.

Beyond that, I'll be blunt, I'm having a hard time. I feel like the people I feel least good about (mkg in particular) haven't really given any new content to look at in a while.

I have an easier time saying who I feel good about; right now Zenge is near the top, and I still feel decent about Wonder. I also appreciate what I've seen from Vissy.

Noted 😔
 
How did all those people die, and not one of them was our outed bloodhound?
The only thing that gives me pause is that Lumi is still circling the yeet drain, and scum might have figured it was worth waiting a night and getting rid of some strong village voices instead and then letting us take care of Lumi during the day.

But it is interesting that they weren't targeted at all. If there are multiple factions, which there seem to be based on the number of kills, it's wild to me that all decided not to target them.

You're not in my POE! I just think it's irresponsible for me to say you're safe after you ran circles around me in StardeWW.

I'm going to be playing as if we're on the same team, I'm just keeping an open mind to the fact that I can't read you.

The majority of people always being so afraid to give me any kind of village read (or...a read at all...) no matter how much effort I'm putting into a game just wears on me. It's fine. I try to take it as a compliment.
 
What’s your reasoning?
There's a chance their whole thing yesterday was just fancy village play, but the fact that they opened with a big lie, a bunch of weirdly strong reads on several people, then some flailing when Wonder called them out, and then just vanishing...

Idk. I feel like I've seen a decent number of wolves just sort of stop posting after they feel like they've blown it. I really hope they come back, I am open to changing my vote but wanted to get something on the board.
 
@mkg323 i see you lurking!

Do you have any thoughts to share?
I’m back! Kinda bummed bc Lumi and Wonder haven’t been on, and I’d really like to be done talking about goo. I’ll probably vote for Lumi unless something drastic happens. I feel ok about you and Vissy, kinda ok about True given the double lovers claim and the fact that I’m finding myself agreeing with a decent amount of their posts. Besides the obviously MIA people, I want to see more from Alley I think, she pushed lumi hard yesterday, which I’m fine with but I don’t really remember much of anything else from her.

Thats assuming their actually a bloodhound, couldn’t it be that their scum and the other scum don’t feel the need to target them?
