Anyway I gotta go take an exam now so see y'all in a few hours

Some thoughts based mostly on VCA, and some gameplay

MsP, Sporty and Stagg are the ones that jump out to me as looking the worst here, with varying levels of low play/low village play
Capri has been flying under the radar, she has one vote which is good, but it isn't enough to clear her.
I find myself being a bit frustrated with Cray this game, but mostly believing her
Samac, LiS, and Alley look a lot better after last night.
Dina, Barks, Genny

 

[alleycat03]

I was on Finn for 5 straight days. Someone please explain to me why a wolf would vote for a fellow wolf for 5 days in a row.

Jesus frak guys if there's nothing else I avoid as a wolf it's interactions specifically ones that would favorably link me to packmates, specifically anything that seems to openly defend. How much did I come to help alley x2, Sunny, Cyndia, or Zenge in games past? Not much.

Cray didn't come to defend me when we were wolfing together. Again, while I am not exactly a fan of who she shot, I really, really, really, think that she is not a wolf. Is she 3P? Maybe, but I'm not completely convinced. But I seriously think that she is not a wolf, and we should be focusing on hunting wolves

 

[alleycat03]

I will be around more this afternoon once I'm finished at work. That's when you'll get my updated, updated wolf reads.

right now my POE is Stagg, Capri, MsP, Sporty


###Yeet Stagg###

 

[Stagg737]

Mayo was talking about the actual pony, not Sporty. I’m going to need those other reasons because I really think you’re a wolf.

Huh? Where am I? Who are you? Why am I flying? Wingardium Leviosa! WEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

 

[Stagg737]

Buckets! Biscuits!! Baskets!!! Boggarts!!!! BAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!

 

[Cyndia]

Got visited by the insistent little pony last night! So looks like I’m in Cornwall too now.

 

[samac]

WHY DOES A PONY KEEP TAKING PEOPLE TO CORNWALL

Also how did mayo get to London a while back?

questions. Questions

 

[samac]

Huh? Where am I? Who are you? Why am I flying? Wingardium Leviosa! WEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

Did what I think happen to you happen last night

 

[Stagg737]

FLOBBERWORMS!!! JABBERWOCKIES!!! SKITTLES!!!!!!

 

[samac]

FLOBBERWORMS!!! JABBERWOCKIES!!! SKITTLES!!!!!!

Interesting way to say yes.

 

[Stagg737]

UNEXECUTE ALLEY
EXECUTE SPORTY

UNEXECUTE SPORTY

[Stagg737]

Hollows! Hallows! Harrows! Sparrows! LOOK AT THE PRETTY BIRDS! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

 

[samac]

You would think as a psych intern I’d speak gibberish better but I’ve not had that lecture yet.

 

[Stagg737]

Cray Cray, LIS all play! Barking shadows shout Hooray!!!

 

[Stagg737]

Charm my arms and sound the alarms! No! No harm from the opposite of Garm! The one on the farm!

 

[Stagg737]

Moooooooo! Am I a cow? Why am I here? Where is here? Ooooooooo. Shineeeeyyyyyyy

 

[samac]

......................................................

 

[samac]

This is the most active he’s been all game.

 

[SportPonies]

Cray Cray, LIS all play! Barking shadows shout Hooray!!!

And things like this are why post restrictions are my favorite

 

[Stagg737]

......................................................

Spinny, spinny, round and round. Spin until we hit the ground!

 

[SportPonies]

stagg was an interesting post restriction choice last night. Someone really wanted to shut him up so he can’t defend, and I don’t know if that’s a wolfy move or a villagey one.

....or it’s self-inflicted?

 

[SportPonies]

Actually, I’d buy the self-inflicted if he’s a wolf, since people tend to move off of votes for a day if someone is restricted.

Super, duper, pooper-scooper!

 

[Stagg737]

I like turtles.

 

[capri1722]

Cray Cray, LIS all play! Barking shadows shout Hooray!!!

This is the only one I'm able to make sense of (I think?). Sounds like Cray, LIS, Barks, and Dina are village reads?

 

[capri1722]

Charm my arms and sound the alarms! No! No harm from the opposite of Garm! The one on the farm!

The only Garm I can find is the wolf/dog from Norse mythology.
"No harm from the opposite of Garm wolf" = sounds like talking about the identity of the post restrictor

 

[capri1722]

Ok so I'm probably wrong here

 

[genny]

Huh? Where am I? Who are you? Why am I flying? Wingardium Leviosa! WEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

This is going to make it really hard for you defend.
I would like to know why you want to execute me.

 

[Stagg737]

What? Who am I? Why am I a lobster? Where's the toilet queen?

 

[samac]

Anyway staggs just trying to distract us aside, I would very much like @Ms Procrastinator to come talk with us. She comes in at day close asks me what’s going on on thread in our PM and then she just disappears again. I don’t like it.

 

[Barkley13]

I was on Finn for 5 straight days. Someone please explain to me why a wolf would vote for a fellow wolf for 5 days in a row.

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

 

[Stagg737]

This is the only one I'm able to make sense of (I think?).

♫ Call me beautiful, so original, telling me I'm not like other girls! ♫

 

[Barkley13]

......
Did what I think happen to you happen last night

what does this mean

 

[samac]

what does this mean

Oh I was trying to say post restricted without saying post restricted.

but I don’t think this is the same thing that happened to cray. This is very different

 

[Barkley13]

This is the only one I'm able to make sense of (I think?). Sounds like Cray, LIS, Barks, and Dina are village reads?

hmm not sure what the wow react on this is supposed to mean

This is your way of saying No because that’s that song by Meghan Trainor?

 

[Stagg737]

I smell fish. Or is that chips? Or is that me? Or maybe all three! WEEEEEEEE!!!!

 

[samac]

I smell fish. Or is that chips? Or is that me? Or maybe all three! WEEEEEEEE!!!!

Did an item called fish and chips do this to you?

 

[Stagg737]

Did an item called fish and chips do this to you?

Wingardium Leviosa! Expelliarmus!!! Riddikulus!!!!! Awoooooooooo!

 

[Stagg737]

I smell fish. Or is that chips? Or is that me? Or maybe all three! WEEEEEEEE!!!!

Yummy, yummy, yummy I've got love in my tummy, but it tastes an awful lot like fuuuuuuuuuur!!!

 

[samac]

okay so was it related to Voldemort? I’m trying here.
you think a wolf gave you fish and chips?

 

[capri1722]

Wingardium Leviosa! Expelliarmus!!! Riddikulus!!!!! Awoooooooooo!

So the HP character is wolf?

 

[SportPonies]

This is... a strange post restriction.

like what are the criteria here? “You can only post in rhymes and Harry Potter references”?

 

[samac]

Voldemort gave you fish and chips?

 

[holdthemayo]

That's what I'm struggling with. Usually post restrictions have an identifiable theme.

 

[Barkley13]

okay but why would a wolf post restrict stagg of all people? seems unlikely

 

[Stagg737]

So the HP character is wolf?

March? April? May?
Birds? Bes?

Were Rhinos considered unicorns? Are manatees mermaids??? WHO AM I?????

’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.
