oh god am I turning into zenge????

 

[CeeGee14]

What made you decide you wanted to do village this time?

I wanted to get better at villaging. I've only ever played village once and I got yeeted D1, so not a lot of time to practice

Ah, this is what @WildZoo was talking about.

This reads village vibes to me. If I were scum, I probably wouldn’t try and openly call attention to this.

Alissa, can you walk me through this a little more? I'm not fully following why that statement would be AI - it's something CeeGee would probably need to address regardless of her aff in this game because it's a statement she'd made previously (that she'd prefer to be scum), so if anything, it might get her more sus to just ignore a statement like that (whether she's town or not here).

Yeah I’m saying I would try to quietly ignore it and hope it would go away as scum lol. Though I’ve never won a game as part of scum faction so maybe this logic is flawed anyways

 

[CeeGee14]

huh what?

Have you forgotten what you did in Supernatural, Fruit? YOU THREW YOU TO THE WOLVES FOR A WOLF!

Well that hits me right in my squishy soul

oh no, atp I'm like. Only 50% caught up on the thread.
I know why shorty is voting Zenge. @apoptosis09

I can try….. but also sometimes I say things and I go back and I don’t even know what I’m saying! This is why I wish everyone could plug themselves into my brain so they can get a real-time understanding of my thought process because it makes sense in my head but I sometimes have difficulty expressing it coherently. All I was trying to say was it gave me village vibes because her doing that was not something I would personally do as scum. Is that flawed logic? Sure! But that is what my instant reaction was to that post in the moment. I’ve been trying to give my thoughts in real time as they come to me before I forget them to try to give people insight into my chaos of a brain

 

[potentialsheltervet]

Premature post. That's supposed to be @ apop and @GoSpursGo can you summarize briefly why you're on Zenge?
Why the CG votes? Is it stemming from the thought she wouldn't choose town over scum?

 

[CeeGee14]

Well now I feel bad

Well that hits me right in my squishy soul

As you should

 

[supershorty]

What is this, English class????

No, but right now, your justifications on your reads list don't really give me any insight into your thought processes.

 

[samac]

As you should

I’d just like to note you didn’t know you were scum last game until you joined us and you were doing fine

 

[alissa14]

Conversion confirmed

Microweggs are bad
Mushroom lasagna (Alissa’s version) isn’t real
Adding crème fraîche to scrambled eggs is the superior way to make them

idk what it means that 2/3 of my zenge impressions are egg related and that 3/3 are food related

 

[alissa14]

If shorty is scum she sure does have a nice cozy pocket. She probably crocheted it herself and everything!

 

[_rae_]

No, but right now, your justifications on your reads list don't really give me any insight into your thought processes.

That was a joke and it came across snarky, my b.

Spurs is rubbing me the wrong way. Flip flopping on fruit, the beans thing, and no reads list. It could be the CYO set up, but like I said, relaxed solving spurs isn’t there and something sort of panicky is in his place.

Fruit is my strongest village read, mostly because this feels like fruit putting the heat on people to get their reads straight. After the last few games, I feel more confident in my fruit reads so I’m comfy saying that.

I need to do more looking to see my last one.

 

[supershorty]

That was a joke and it came across snarky, my b.

I didn't read it as snarky!

 

[WildZoo]

I’d just like to note you didn’t know you were scum last game until you joined us and you were doing fine

Ohhhh good point

Actually I only became suspicious of her once she did know she was scum iirc? Maybe?

 

[alissa14]

my read on spurs, I haven’t gotten quite a good read on him yet. I don’t plan on voting there today. I know he is absent this evening. I do find it interesting that other players have said village!spurs is relaxed and chill, because I don’t think I’ve necessarily gotten that vibe from his posts. TBD

 

[supershorty]

@kitzsuna @Clem J Why are you scum reading samac?

 

[CeeGee14]

Who are you scum reading?

I almost never have scum reads early on. The best I can give is who I think is least village.

Spurs: I was almost certain he was village in the Good Place, but now that I know he was also scum...It puts everything into question. I think his playstyle is similar to what he was like in the Good Place

Dubz: She's here mostly because I don't know what V!Dubz looks like and she's playing pretty similar to W!Dubz from last game. Actually, @WildZoo Besides me, anyone else you're reading as scum?

 

[CeeGee14]

I’d just like to note you didn’t know you were scum last game until you joined us and you were doing fine

I assumed I was scum since I didn't have a wincon or know my affiliation. It said in the rules about villagers having to meet their wincons and I was like, "but I don't have a wincon...Am I not village?"

 

[supershorty]

I know he was also scum...It puts everything into question. I think his playstyle is similar to what he was like in the Good Place

He didn't know he was scum until a cycle after you'd found out you were scum, does that affect your feeling at all?
(sorry, I don't remember how you were reading Spurs in Good Place tbh)

 

[beans2020]

Gah I'm starting to get worried that CG is a misyeet but I don't know who to vote instead. I don't really want to vote for zenge or samac today. hmmmmmm

 

[WildZoo]

Why the CG votes? Is it stemming from the thought she wouldn't choose town over scum?

Not for me, no.

I have voted CG for what appeared to me to be a scummy attempt to contribute to the conversation regarding your role card confusion without actually progressing the conversation or alleviating the confusion

it's a relatively minor ping but it's what I've got until I probably sheep someone else who seems more confident in their vote 🫡

(this was in response to kitz)

Also now this

I think the fact that the two things that have made me go huh about alissa's posts are directly related to defending CG and scumreading Zenge are interesting given the tallies at the time

 

[beans2020]

I was really feeling okay about spurs, but I didn't play in Good Place with him so I may not be seeing what everyone else is. I will meditate on this.

 

[_rae_]

Yeet spurs

I think this is my strongest gut feeling and while I hate to do this to him while he’s away, I feel like this is what makes sense.

 

[alissa14]

Gah I'm starting to get worried that CG is a misyeet but I don't know who to vote instead. I don't really want to vote for zenge or samac today. hmmmmmm

I’m going to assume you’re not caught up on thread because as of the most recent vote, zenge is on the chopping block, not CG. Is there a particular reason you don’t want to vote zenge or samac?

 

[apoptosis09]

Took an hour to eat dinner and came back to 4 more pages 😬 was there anything important I missed?

 

[supershorty]

Regrettably, the thing I was going to look at with vanillager claims wasn't actually helpful because in CYO III, PSV was the only person who claimed using vanillager for aff and it was only discarded twice, so not similar to this game really at all.

 

[alissa14]

I think the fact that the two things that have made me go huh about alissa's posts are directly related to defending CG and scumreading Zenge are interesting given the tallies at the time

i really don’t like this from dubz. I am in no way defending CG and I feel like she’s trying to spin a narrative here because it feels like she’s putting words in my mouth

 

[CeeGee14]

He didn't know he was scum until a cycle after you'd found out you were scum, does that affect your feeling at all?
(sorry, I don't remember how you were reading Spurs in Good Place tbh)

Didn't he say that he was 3p with an exclusive wincon? Or am I mis-remembering.

Even after he was added to wolf chat, I still felt good reading him village

 

[WildZoo]

I almost never have scum reads early on. The best I can give is who I think is least village.

Spurs: I was almost certain he was village in the Good Place, but now that I know he was also scum...It puts everything into question. I think his playstyle is similar to what he was like in the Good Place

Potentially alissa (I have y'all possibly partnered in my brain right now so that's fun!)

Spurs dropped out of my village reads but not really far enough that I want to vote him while he's not here to defend himself

Otherwise the non-null reads I have are village ones. PSV, kitz, genny, SAR, fruit.

 

[WildZoo]

i really don’t like this from dubz. I am in no way defending CG and I feel like she’s trying to spin a narrative here because it feels like she’s putting words in my mouth

Shrugs you broke a tie in her favor

 

[samac]

Regrettably, the thing I was going to look at with vanillager claims wasn't actually helpful because in CYO III, PSV was the only person who claimed using vanillager for aff and it was only discarded twice, so not similar to this game really at all.

Honestly just by the numbers of it I’d be shocked if one of them didn’t lie tbh but that feels like a weird thing to stake it on

 

[supershorty]

Didn't he say that he was 3p with an exclusive wincon? Or am I mis-remembering

You are correctly remembering what he said, but you are forgetting that I posted afterward that he did not know the difference between exclusive/inclusive in that context and he was inclusive.

But I'd also put it in tiny font, so understandable to miss it lol

Anyway, he was inclusive, he'd win if he sent a helpful item to each faction.

Where are you on Zenge? Null?

 

[Zenge142]

Gah I'm starting to get worried that CG is a misyeet but I don't know who to vote instead. I don't really want to vote for zenge or samac today. hmmmmmm

Can I interest you in Rae?

 

[beans2020]

I’m going to assume you’re not caught up on thread because as of the most recent vote, zenge is on the chopping block, not CG. Is there a particular reason you don’t want to vote zenge or samac?

Oh I know - I'm just voting for CG right now and there's still time before EOD for that to take off. Neither zenge or samac are coming across as particularly wolfy to me atm. And like (shorty?) said, zenge in particular is super helpful as village later in the game so I'd rather not misyeet him now.
I have also never played with wolf!samac and have minimally played with wolf!zenge so it is possible that this is entirely within their wolf ranges and I just wouldn't know.

 

[potentialsheltervet]

Can I interest you in Rae?

Oh? What's this?

 

[supershorty]

Honestly just by the numbers of it I’d be shocked if one of them didn’t lie tbh but that feels like a weird thing to stake it on

Yeah, the thing I specifically wanted to look at was whether vanillager claims tended to come later in the claims process, but hard to do that when there was only 1 lol

 

[Zenge142]

Yeet spurs

I think this is my strongest gut feeling and while I hate to do this to him while he’s away, I feel like this is what makes sense.

Hmmm.

I need to ruminate on this because Spurs and Rae are my two strongest wolf reads

 

[beans2020]

Can I interest you in Rae?

Why Rae?

 

[WildZoo]

Where are you on Zenge? Null?

Yeah. He hasn't done anything that made me go "WOW THIS IS VILLAGE ZENGE!" and maybe I should take that as a bad sign, but he doesn't always immediately hit that tone when he's village.

 

[Zenge142]

Oh? What's this?

It’s where I voted.

 

[alissa14]

Shrugs you broke a tie in her favor

Yeah I can totally see how the progression of me giving CG village vibes and then breaking the tie in her favor looks TERRIBLE for me lol. This was not my intent. The tie was making me antsy. I know I know there was still time left but I dislike ties. I will never forget The Tie Lesson from my noob game (thx Dubz <3). I really just wanted to break the tie and I have been consistently scum reading zenge since yesterday.

 

[apoptosis09]

Can I interest you in Rae?

What's your case here? Bc I haven't really known where to sit on rae but could definitely see it

 

[Zenge142]

Why Rae?

I mean you need to find your own reasons.

I’m voting Rae because there was a tonal thing that pinged me in Rae’s posts yesterday that I haven’t shaken.

And in general her play doesn’t feel village.

 

[supershorty]

I went to look at tot chat for SPN because I was wolf reading rae hard and fast that game, but I just made comments like "rae tastes off" or quoting a post and saying it tasted bad, which is unhelpful for current!me.
