Ok through page 16. I don’t usually do these text wall posts but I’m so damn far behind I feel like I’ve got to do something to get my thoughts organized and out there.
😵
Mayo, for aforementioned reasons. Barks yeeting me seems opportunistic, primarily because I know the wolves are going to capitalize on all the salt directed my way from wolfing the past two games combined with people always thinking I'm sus D1 regardless of my affiliation. Also because the reasoning she gave for yeeting me just now was weak. Ever so slight wolf lean on barks.
Because yeeting me is very opportunistic - keeping an eye on the people who are either staying on my vote because salt (like sun) and those who are calling me sus but not voting me because of it so they can egg on my yeet without being on a villager wagon (I don't have any names off the top of my head, need to go back and read).
I don't think I have any good reasons to move anyone else out of neutral at the moment.
I do find it interesting you stayed on mayo. I think he’s always been one to throw a few jokes out. Seems weak, especially when you were on the chopping block.
I was feeling sus of pippy too, but then i made it through that long wall post... and I understand the reasoning for a lot of the later arguments. Don't agree with all of them personally, but was surprised to find it all so far down after starting off with so many joke arguments that people stopped reading it.
And then as I was typing that...
YIKETY YIKES
this feels way early for a big role reveal but also, pro village move (and pro-self move if neutral as stated) to prevent us from setting off a bomb right away. Could be a real bold wolf strategy, but I lean 3P/village because a wolf wouldn't know if there might be another power available that could call their bluff
same i do not like.
Not so sure at all, I was leaning that way before the further discussion of bomb mechanics when I realized I didn't actually know the details of how it would work - but then further discussion was had and i am now less sure. I leaned 3P because it seemed like a real bold move for a wolf to make so early (especially if the lie might possibly be later uncovered by a lie detector ability or similar) but now it's feeling shakier to me.
my next best wolf read is April, but the two big unshifting wagons also scare me a bit as previously mentioned, so i don't know if i'm comfy voting that way either (also risking a tie if my count is correct? ties scare me after emoji game)
I'm gonna go reanalyze my full list/review some people i haven't looked at closely yet and see if that helps bring me any clarity
In the previous games i've played, it seems like two strong wagons without much movement often means the wolves are happy because a non-wolf is going to get yeeted either way, so they either settle comfortably in a wagon or stay on whatever lone vote they landed on early (usually with the pack distributed in different places). I haven't been in a game yet where a wolf got successfully yeeted D1 though, so it might just be my bias scaring me. You're also right that there's still time for movement
I got through a few people but not everyone yet. Here are some notes as i went through, but a few of these people have made more new posts since i looked at them so it may shift things
Sunshine - only seems to have made two posts*, one with an unexplained yet vote and one about Pippy/WZ. I think a wolf might be more careful about meeting content minimums, but I don’t get a village read off the minimal content so far.
*i see new posts now that i need to review
Alissa - Not much content yet either but I can follow her thoughts in her posts as she’s working through, feels possible village lean to me
Samac - also low content but understandable if slammed at work. Even though she’s voting to yeet me I can understand her reasons since I hadn’t posted much yet
WZ - voted Samac early to start conversation/staying there still, seems to mostly be engaging with the Pippy discussion otherwise. Not sure I see too much contribution otherwise* besides mild sus at mkg? Could lean wolf for me, but I’m also bitter about the last game she was wolf in that I played
*again, new posts for me to review
seeing the direction the vote is going in, I'm comfortable letting the pippy yeet play out but I'd like to sit outside the possible blast radius (because, as mentioned, am scaredypants). unless things change up and push it back towards a tie, i'll set my vote on my other wolfy read for now
yeet april
Thus far I can’t find diddily squat from TE that makes her look like prime wolf bait.
She called me out for being low post which is understandable and had April in her wolf reads. Also had a mild wolf read WZ.
I like her point about if sunshine was a wolf she would probably pay attention to post minimums but she got there. I personally think the easiest way to wolf would be to consistently skirt by at the post minimums and don’t draw attention to yourself. As I go forward I’m keeping an eye on sunshine.
Thus far I see nothing that gives away that TE had some kind of role. Unless there’s something over the 6 pages I have left to review it seems like the wolves either saw her as a threat with her reads or it was RNG.

Wolves should have the D1 numbers to save Pippy, unless the other wagon is also a wolf (or all wolves voting on it).
This point right here seems like village mayo to me.
Fair enough, I must have missed it.
Did you think Pippy was 3P or a wolf? I know you didn't think she was village?
How is making the selfish choice not anti-village?
Isn't the village better off getting a wolf (or even a serial killer) and possibly losing a villager in the process?
Same question to AM
I just have to agree with you here. Those 2 claiming selfish choices seems anti-village with the self preservation. I will say though AM changing her vote last minute because she thought the train was safe and wanted to preserve herself because she’s “so damn important to the village” (paraphrasing) sounds like true AM line of thought. She definitely always finds herself to be the most important in the game and calls out everyone else for not playing correctly.
🙄
WZ I’m more surprised about because she’d used the same claim in apocolypse. Almost word for word and she was like “yep seems legit save myself”. I really don’t get why she would have taken it seriously.
ok so someone mentioned WildZoo's bomb role in the end of the world game, so I read the last write-up of that and she killed everyone. I get that Pippy probably can't kill EVERYONE but I can't figure out how hers works, like does she kill all the people that yeet her? one of them? She's making it seem like she can pick? I'm just not confident enough to call her bluff like some others are
I don’t know if anyone ever responded to you but since apocalypse was my last game it’s a little fresher for me than others. WZ went boom, but she claimed days before that that she would explode on being yeeted and that she’d take at least one person with her.
I was very calmly like uh so are just going to ignore this threat? And I let vets talk me into “oh it’s a 3rd party ignore them” and that caused all but AM to. This is why if someone is outted as a chaos 3rd party in future games I’m gonna try and yeet them just as I yeet wolves. **** that. Everything anti-village can die.
Crap I forgot to vote! Sorry guys! I probably would’ve gone for pippy though because her claim seemed sus
Welp that did not win village points.
To live while voting my other wolf read in case the vengeful claim was real.
In case she actually was a vengeful wolf. At baseline, I'm still narcissistic enough that I know village would be ****ed if I die.
I quoted the vote because it was sketchy as hell to move last minute like that to someone with no votes. It could be in an effort to be off the bandwagon later.
But the little I’ve played with AM and what I’ve toted i can buy that explanation. She definitely thinks she is the universe’s gift to village. She’s between neutral and wolf leans for me right now. I’m sure she’ll give me plenty more content over the next 6 pages.
I didn't want to die if pippy was telling the truth and I don't think April is a wolf
I thought I made a post to that effect earlier but maybe that was in my head lol
Not to mention she kept flipping back and forth between a single casualty or multiple casualties in her bomb claim, so having as few people on the vote as possible seemed like a good idea anyway
But yeah was mostly because I was annoyed and wanted to play for more than a day. Sue me.
So here’s the thing. In the same comment you explain why her claims don’t make sense, it was a claim you had used and knew you made up in another game and claim self preservation. It doesn’t really make sense to me and I can’t follow that logic. Wolf leans to you. I’m sure you’ll also give me plenty of content over the next 6 pages
