End of the WWorld Game Thread - 1st Game of 2021

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
For wolfs I’m considering: AM, VetSchools, and Pippy.
I chose not to create another tie in favor of the village, because your always taking a huge risk when you willingly decide to create a tie. I didn’t see a point in starting a vote for vetschools with little time left in the day, so hence I voted AM
I literally just role revealed. You really gonna wolf read the Mockingjay?

That move has historically turned out poorly for the bad guys.
 
Day 3 (slight updates!)

(I’m on mobile and my laptop tragically died, I’m sorry)

A gunshot rang throughout the clearing.

it struck a player in the back of the head. She slid to the ground.

Glad they aimed for the head this time.

Dead is @vetmedhead , Thanos from Avengers: Infinity War who was a lone wolf capable of converting a player as well as able to kill a player every 3 nights

It is *STILL* Day 3. Vote/yeet deadline is *GASP* 10pm EST (9pm CST/8pm MST/7pm fantasyland).

More importantly... who?
Tiny thing but this reads genuine village to me. You see each others’ names a lot in a wolfchat. If sunny and CATS were in a wolfpack together I don’t think it would occur to sunny (not a slight on sunny’s creativity. If anything a slight on mine since I’m basing this on knowing I would never think of it) to pretend not to know who “big kitty cats” is referring to.
I am also curious of this...
This response to a vote for CATS doesn’t sit entirely right with me. I don’t think it’s not a reasonable thing for a villager to say, but together with the other reasons I’m suspicious of Sloth I don’t love it.

I wonder if I would change my very difficult to read wolf play if I were wolfing again?


I'll ask the pigeons.


Vote SAR.
Don't trust Pippy/AM
Bread is village
1. I do think you would. I also think you’re a bold enough wolf that you’d point it out. For other reasons, though, I don’t think you’re wolfing this game.

2. I need to go back and see what the pigeon exchange was. Iirc messenger pigeons have been a thing in other werewolf games and it sounded like something like that was maybe happening here.

3. Care to elaborate on these pearls of wisdom???
Also, I have zero idea what BB code is or how to use it.
I am impressed with myself just for using spoilers.
It’s a simple markup language used for formatting forum posts. Click the top right dots icon and then the brackets icon in the dropdown menu. It will switch your view from formatted text to the plain text BB code editor. You can then copy and paste that to quote between thread and PMs. It cuts off long PM quotes, tho, and we can’t expand them since we aren’t in the PM, so it may be better to just copy-paste long messages in quotation marks.
It was the only way to stop the night.
Yay I suspected right!! For multiple reasons (will elaborate if asked) I think it’s clear mayo isn’t lying about this. I know any ability can be for any affiliation, but I’d assume night cancellation and especially using it skews village. I can also imagine a 3p with some exclusive win condition of “if neither village nor wolves have won by day n” or something, but that’s well into tinfoil hat territory (not at all ruling it out, since something about mayo’s posts have given me vague 3p impressions. I just don’t think it’s worth pursuing yet). I would question why village would skip such an early night, when we need info from night actions to hunt wolves and before skipping nights gets really crucial at endgame, but I think it makes sense here. The number of people we already lost, plus worries about it escalating, plus suspicion on mayo all making him worried he wouldn’t survive another night/day cycle... yeah, it tracks.
Also, this is more of a rhetorical question than a real one, but why do all the new players think genny is village???? She's been shooting people in broad daylight!

Doesn't anyone wonder who killed BC at night if the village assassin shoots during the daytime? Like, maybe there is a village assassin who shot a wolf, and the weaponized wolves got revenge the next day by shooting 3 villagers?

And if it's actually a wolfy ability thief who stole one of genny's bullets, why didn't they shoot genny so she couldn't kill a wolf the next day??

If a wolf stole it, it doesn't make sense to me that they would want to immediately shoot her with it - they could just use it on someone else as an extra kill and then kill her that night if needed, or else leave her around if they knew they could just steal it again and get more extra kills with it. But then the night cancel happened?

This makes me feel like genny and mayo are v/v (or at least v/not-wolf). I think there not being any vig kills today speaks to genny being village. If she were a wolf with a limited daykill ability, I think after missing a NK wolves would be nervous and eager to get village numbers down so would go for a kill today. The pack maybe having counted on killing genny last night is another point in favour of the night skipper being village - ofc we can’t know if that was the wolves’ plan, but the possibility is there nevertheless.

After re-reading some of her posts today, I no longer know where to put sunshine in my reads. She was very against my vote on sloth, but then could not justify why she trusted sloth besides saying that they were PM partners and she thought they were a villager. I am not very familiar with Sunshine's game play after we yeeted her so early in the noob game, so I have some suspicion there too.
quoting this for later reference
Ok. It's called a reaction test.

I'll repeat this question: do you think she responded to me the same way she responded last game?

As a reminder, when someone accused her, she said "ok wolf." and then she voted away from the main wagons -- aka showed independent, original thought. This time, she evaporated for a good 15-20 minutes, and then was like "oh, my village read is voting one of my wolf reads now. Vote my fake wolf read."
not in defense, but it could well be that she say "ok wolf" didn't work and got her yeeted, so she's trying something else now. I think we can expect to see a lot of noobs changing up their strategy, especially ones that were out near the beginning.
If I was being coached I’m pretty sure I would be playing better.... just saying.... I am tending to follow others reasonings because I agree with what they are saying. Also, when I get very behind it’s a challenge to come up with additional reasoning that hasn’t already been discussed.
OR the wolves think you're too far gone and are hanging you out to dry (sorry, again I'm not convinced you're a wolf but you're my best shot right now and this isn't a very solid defense)
** end of page 61, I'm still catching up. I had a quiz due at 5:30 that I hadn't watched the lectures for yet oops lol

These are all really good points and has slid Mayo closer to the village side of things for me, I think.
 
It's even better -- it's a surprise 3 day weekend
**********
me too! Because my next rotation that starts on Monday (core rural/underserved) emailed me today to tell me they’re not ready for me to start Monday and they’ll let me know... yay? As long as I don’t have to make up the day(s) from the late start. But it’s good because it gives me at least 1 more day to be at home (it’s in a town 2 hours away from my husband and pups) and 1 extra day to recover from Pfizer #2 I got today.
 
is there a reason we should keep you around?

I guess not. Guess I dug myself too deep of a hole. Either way the arguments are hard to defend. If I’m wolf of course Yeet me,
but I’m village and haven’t been doing my do-diligence of wolf hunting. I feel like trying to defend myself is pretty helpless at this point.

Yeet/vote close at 10pm Eastern, TODAY, Friday, 1/8/2021 (~1.25 HOURS)
How can I still be voting for dead meat? 😉
 
SAR seems fluffy and backtracks on her non-fluff posts, samac feels insincere and over-the-top in some of their reactions, this isn't really based on anything concrete I can identify but Pippy has Stranger Things energy. I cheated in my readthrough (how am I still so many pages behind???) and skipped to the most recent tally and I'm not sure if SAR voting for samac makes me reevaluate anything.
I have not really been able to differentiate between wolves and neutral so I am sticking with my SAR vote incase bigcats was trying to shore up her voting history incase SAR ever yeeted. But just a gut feeling and my voting history has not been very strong at all.
 
For wolfs I’m considering: AM, VetSchools, and Pippy.

So you're giving up with 90 minutes to go instead of using that time to wolfhunt?
