’Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

“Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!”

He took his vorpal sword in hand;
Long time the manxome foe he sought—
So rested he by the Tumtum tree
And stood awhile in thought.

And, as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!

One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.

“And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!”
He chortled in his joy.

’Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

So Lewis Carroll?

Did you have some kind of mushroom? Smoked opium with a caterpillar? Had some tea?

You sons of bitches. I hope this is what Dubz would have wanted.

Also sorry Dubz. I really, really thought you were wolfing this game.

I honestly feel like this is the worst game I've ever had for reads that I can recall.

I think you’ve reached a point that you put those you’ve been suspicious of in a village pile and the wolves are who are remaining.
 
I'm really bugged by this post restriction... I really hate voting restricted players. I was planning to start with voting stagg and I feel like this was self inflicted to avoid having to provide a grand role reveal he kept hinting at.

Anyways, I'm home from work and parked up with a glass of hard seltzer because it's gorgeous out today, and I'm going to start doing those iso's and read throughs I keep meaning to do.

What was the flavor of your post restriction? Was it an item mentioned specifically in your write-up?

Does anybody know or have any idea why there haven't been any post restrictions since then? It's kind of bothering me, and I *highly* doubt Cray would do that to herself for no reason and fake it. That's not really something Cray would do.



I do think Cray is a villager. While I am not a huge fan of her decisions as a vig, and I have not been a vig before myself so I've never been in her shoes, but none of this is even remotely similiar to how I've seen Cray wolf. And considering I've only wolfed twice and both times have been with Cray, I feel pretty confident that she's telling the truth. There's no way wolf!Cray would role reveal unless she absolutely had to, and she definitely didn't have to role reveal yesterday. I wish her shots would have hit wolves (and I especially wish she had taken out Finn instead of Alissa), but it was her decision and I follow her thought process, even if I am not the biggest fan of who she killed.


So is the rez a nighttime only action? I highly doubt you can be blocked every single night (and/or day) for the rest of the game, so I suggest you try to rez someone (preferably Zenge) or we will yeet you. I agree with Cray and think we can wait a day and give you another chance to prove yourself.

@Crayola227 noted this post of alley's while iso-ing her and I don't see where you responded - what was the flavor of your post restriction earlier in the game?

Well since you asked
Day 1: voted docE
Day 2: voted finn who ended with 2 votes while mkg (a wolf) ended up in a tie with visc at 7 votes
Day 3: voted finn who ended with 3 votes while mkg was almost in another tie with bread but it ended up 7-6
Day 4: voted finn but she was also in a tie with sunshine, another wolf
Day 5: voted finn while there was 2 wolves on the board and the other wolf got the most votes (sunshine 10 to finn 7)
Day 6: voted finn and she actually got yeeted

so I don't think this clears you when your votes occurred when finn wasn't in trouble or when another wolf was on the board, with the exception of yesterday
Also finn talking about being burnt out/tired did feel genuine, so that may be a contributing factor too

@Crayola227 since you asked me for a read on alley -

At a first glance, I agree that this is a terrible looking VCA for alley. Though when we wolfed with her last game I thought I remembered her jumping around more? And when I dug through her posts to see the reasonings, looking through her posts I see she mentioned pming samac and a lot of her earlier justifications involved following samac's logic of finn being sheriff. It kind of makes sense to me she tunneled on that intensively if she was talking to samac a lot in pm about it (@samac can confirm?). so that plus I do agree with her most recent POE is making me leave her in my village pile.
