Alissa, please for the love of all that is werewolfy -- the lynch avoidance is 100% NAI because in this game it is NAI

I know I said that but barks says me saying that is sus. Does that make sense?

 

[WildZoo]

Hey @Barkley13 can you define spinny?

 

[alissa14]

I’m open to waffling to MsP. Won’t Nav get mod killed anyways for not voting two days in a row?

 

[WildZoo]

Dubz - I just really feel like I can never read her at all

Oh look another cop-out

I mean really, do people even try

 

[Barkley13]

@Barkley13 what question did I miss? Also I said Nav’s lynch avoidance is somewhat NAI because I’ve had that ability as both a villager (noob game) and a wolf (winter speed game).

The very last one. And I agreed that it's NAI but something about the post still felt weird to me

His posts, eh?

Okay I definitely thought he had posted twice the first day

 

[alissa14]

Oh look another cop-out

I mean really, do people even try

If it makes you feel better I have you in my neutral-wolf leaning pile😀

 

[PippyPony]

I mean really, do people even try

smh

 

[WildZoo]

smh

I commend you for usually having strong opinions about my affiliation!

 

[PippyPony]

3 total posts vs 2 total posts... WILDLY DIFFERENT, I see what you mean

 

[Animal Midwife]

Probably not since he wasn't even warned the first time.

 

[Barkley13]

Hey @Barkley13 can you define spinny?

Like he always spins things in his nav way but when he came on yesterday with the whole "well miz reacted fine she's definitely village!" felt way different to me

Oh look another cop-out

I mean really, do people even try

Oh I try. I'm just not good at it

 

[WildZoo]

If it makes you feel better I have you in my neutral-wolf leaning pile😀

Nobody gets village points for who they put in those weaksauce piles 😉

 

[PippyPony]

I commend you for usually having strong opinions about my affiliation!

Someone has to do it for the sake of all these marshmallows

 

[alissa14]

I will say before we have to stop discussing strategy that the three people I get strong village vibes from are pips, BigCats, and AM

 

[Animal Midwife]

Someone has to do it for the sake of all these marshmallows

I take offense! I always state my strong opinions on dubz when I have them!!!

 

[cubsrule4e]

LYNCH CLOSED

PLEASE CEASE ALL DISCUSSION UNTIL WRITE UP HAS BEEN POSTED

 

[WildZoo]

Like he always spins things in his nav way but when he came on yesterday with the whole "well miz reacted fine she's definitely village!" felt way different to me

Interesting
I'm just curious about the structure of that read considering how easy it would have been to ISO him and see he had only posted twice the whole game
Seems natural to double check the posts of someone you're wolfreading in particular
Makes me wonder if you actually took the time to think through all your reads and reasons or were just making stuff up on the fly to satisfy my request

Not to mention I'm not really seeing how that post was any different from any nonsense he ever posts

D3 Lynch Results

It was a quiet day in the library, good for studying as most vet students are wont to do. Very little sound except the rustling of pages turning. As the librarian did her rounds, she spotted something in the corner of the room that was out of place. One book, which was assumed to have been discarded yesterday, couldnt help but stick around for one more day. The keen eye of the librarian found it on the floor peeking out from behind the rubbish bin. She picked it up and trashed it for good.

Dead is

Spoiler

Navilly, who was Educated by Tara Westover, a VILLAGER who would survive for one extra cycle after being lynched or night killed.

Spoiler: Goodreads Description in Memoriam

Goodreads description:
Tara Westover was 17 the first time she set foot in a classroom. Born to survivalists in the mountains of Idaho, she prepared for the end of the world by stockpiling home-canned peaches and sleeping with her "head-for-the-hills bag". In the summer she stewed herbs for her mother, a midwife and healer, and in the winter she salvaged in her father's junkyard.

Her father forbade hospitals, so Tara never saw a doctor or nurse. Gashes and concussions, even burns from explosions, were all treated at home with herbalism. The family was so isolated from mainstream society that there was no one to ensure the children received an education and no one to intervene when one of Tara's older brothers became violent.

Then, lacking any formal education, Tara began to educate herself. She taught herself enough mathematics and grammar to be admitted to Brigham Young University, where she studied history, learning for the first time about important world events like the Holocaust and the civil rights movement. Her quest for knowledge transformed her, taking her over oceans and across continents, to Harvard and to Cambridge. Only then would she wonder if she'd traveled too far, if there was still a way home.

Educated is an account of the struggle for self-invention. It is a tale of fierce family loyalty and of the grief that comes with severing the closest of ties. With the acute insight that distinguishes all great writers, Westover has crafted a universal coming-of-age story that gets to the heart of what an education is and what it offers: the perspective to see one's life through new eyes and the will to change it.

[Coopah]

For tomorrow, in case I die tonight. I've been chatting with jboo in PM who was for some reason reading me strong village which ya know is very abnormal. So we got to chatting and now I hardcore think she's a wolf.

 

[Coopah]

Basically I asked her about her reads which mostly boiled down to feels (in my perspective) and then I got suspicious and her and asked about the voting thing and her defense was basically "I don't want to die and it would look weird if I swapped" which is definitely not a great defense. And overall very suspicious there

 

[WildZoo]

Ooo juicy

[alissa14]

Remember @ Silencer I am 100% okay with being silenced tomorrow. I told my SO about people getting silenced and he said “Yeah I hope tomorrow it’s you.”

Still unsatisfied with the same people. This is why I hate lowposting.

I didn't really feel a need to ISO him when I was pretty confident in how I felt about him. I remembered everything he said just didn't remember if he had said it in 1 or 2 posts on D1

 

[jaboo]

I've been chatting with jboo in PM who was for some reason reading me strong village which ya know is very abnormal.

because I don’t know where to start responding to all of this, I’m just going to say that MOOSE was reading you village, not me

 

[jaboo]

Basically I asked her about her reads which mostly boiled down to feels (in my perspective)

Which was already posted on thread and I further explained with my reasoning.

her defense was basically "I don't want to die and it would look weird if I swapped" which is definitely not a great defense

You forgot the part where I said that I would be more willing to vote Nav, but as Coop had already mentioned, hopping on the Nav bandwagon at the end would’ve been super duper sketch and unhelpful

 

[SARdoghandler]

contingency lynch MsP

I have to be up at 430 tomorrow morning to vaccinate chickens or something then drive three hours so I'll be around whenever that's done

Yes you did say that. I still find it sketchy.

I pictured you testing a chicken’s doneness re: cooking as vaccinating.

I shall see myself out

 

[Coopah]

For any who want the whole convo since we're allowed to quote PMs in this game

Yo ok so I'm a little confused about your activity. I know you had some internet loss or whatever. Not sure if your other half can talk in PM's but I included her too. Could you remind me of your top wolf read and why?

Wait wait, it's BC yes? Why in particular, I agree with you mostly, but I'd like to hear what you have to say on the matter

BC and Wondering are my top reads. Did you not see my post on thread detailing our thoughts?

Yeah but I skimmed it gonna be honest. Besides an actual conversation is usually a lot more useful.

I played a game recently with BC and her reads and interactions are coming off as... fake? They just sound very forced. Plus her voting record is just her piling onto bandwagons.

The double vote thing isn’t helping either, it gives me the heeby jeebies.

Hm ok, her timing of votes has been what is bothering me the most. I've not seen her go after someone new that someone else has not already proposed. BUT, after that comment about alissa, it made me wary. A wolf would be the only one to be confident in their village reads because they know that they are indeed village. What about wondering? Why do you feel the way you do?

Wondering made a post early on that I noted as seeming fish-y. Ever since that first post I’ve noticed she’s playing kinda quiet, not contributing much. Add to that, her voting record is a bit iffy.

What about you? Why is Pippy your top read? I see you’ve been spatting back and forth but tbh I’ve been skimming

She does this as a wolf. Pokes and prods until I lose my ****. Thing is this games she's done it to not just me, dubz too (to the point dubz actually told her off). Truthfully I can't know for sure with her because even when I catch her lying she someone convinces everyone it was my **** up. So

Interesting, didn’t know she does that. I do know that she likes to throw tantrums as wolf.

Just went back to that post with your reads. You have me village... only wolves ever really read me village. Why do you have me village?

Loooooooool

I’m honestly terrible at reading you, but MOOSE is reading you that way. You’ve been making sense to me thus far

That's weird though, making sense how? Because you've only really had feels as most reasons (maybe that's just my persception) But like wondering, what post was so fishy?

Straight from the mouth of babes, er... MOOSE:

Tell Coop she's playing her village meta to me. Whining a lot and acting like AM

I’d have to go back and find the posts in particular, but I commented on it at #459

Oh man that's freaking hilarious

OK but also look at this spread, what does it tell you?

There's two wagons and you're not on either. I'm starting to agree with dubz here you look like a wolf trying to avoid a lynch. Either a villager lynch or lynching your fellow wolf but don't want to jump on now because that'd look bad. And yes to those who just jumped on if Nav is a wolf it looks bad for them too.

I’m sorry for wanting to lynch a wolf

But you're not, not if they don't get lynched. And of you feel that strongly why aren't you fighting on thread tooth and nail to get her lynched? Do you not think either of the top candidates are wolves? Why or why not? That's how you generate discussion and catch wolves

AM has a very similar strategy and I don’t see you acting this way toward her

AM actually kicks up quiet a fuss when she wants to, did you miss the epic fights last game? Plus I feel I can read her based of her questions or lack thereof

I’d be more willing to go towards Nav right now, but as you so kindly pointed out:

Quoted me saying it's look bad

Except we’re not wolves but there’s enough pressure on us for people to definitely side-eye us if we did

So you're not voting nav strictly to avoid suspicion? That's totally normal

Forgive me for not wanting to die. My death would just be another village name on the kill list (which we have NO WOLVES on there right now by the way)

Well yeah dude it's day 2, I know we're good but last game it took us until lylo to lunch a wolf.

 

[Ms Procrastinator]

I am calling BS on this. You're not even voting to save yourself -- if you're that valuable to village, why are you letting yourself hang out in close second place?

Valuable... Not really. Not worth killing absolutely

 

[Coopah]

Valuable... Not really. Not worth killing absolutely

What?

 

[Animal Midwife]

Valuable... Not really. Not worth killing absolutely

Can I hear your updated thoughts on everyone? With even Nav flipping village, I'm having a hard time not voting you.

 

[vetmedhead]

How much tomfoolery is too much

 

[Ms Procrastinator]

Nav kinda clears miz up for me a bit but I don't know. He said she might be village but he also went after her right out the bat.

 

[Coopah]

Nav kinda clears miz up for me a bit but I don't know. He said she might be village but he also went after her right out the bat.

He basically said she's 100% village in his book (which he also claims is pretty darn good). I'm not backing his claim, just providing clarification. Honestly, I'm reading her village too. (but also there was that one game so I'm paranoid about my Miz reads)

 

[Coopah]

@genny what are your reads on Ms P and jboo

 

[vetmedhead]

How much tomfoolery is too much

Put some tomfoolery back dubz, that's too many

 

[Ms Procrastinator]

Can I hear your updated thoughts on everyone? With even Nav flipping village, I'm having a hard time not voting you.

Okay, look. I've work till 3am on Friday and Saturday and slept until ungodly hours after. I'm leaving work at around one tonight. If I don't give you satisfactory reads and whatever tomorrow you can lynch me.

Spoiler: When to lynch MsP

HEY! I have you in my village pile thank you! Don’t go giving Pippy all the credit.
