MSU (1) - Capri

Hmm. Interesting.
I mean I don't disagree. But interesting.

So the vote stealer put Capri's vote on MSU today? And yesterday put MJ on Capri.

Too bad, I was curious if they were gonna make me vote for myself

btw if it wasn't obvious I'm a few pages behind

[Karabiner13]

Unlynch Capri

Lynch Kara because there’s just too much I need to know

and what info will you get?

 

[Lupin21]

At some point someone is gonna have to explain to me why there's so much resistance to lynching capri

I would have rather gone there, but alas. People are stuck on kara.

 

[capri1722]

lynch capri instead

i dunno what that does to the tally, it's just what i desire

Wtf people....

These are the two posts that popped up when I posted that other one and now I have a concern.

 

[WildZoo]

Woah I think I missed 3 waffles while I was posting.

Should be interesting at least

 

[Karabiner13]

I would have rather gone there, but alas. People are stuck on kara.

and refusing to re-evaluate really

 

[WeimMama]

Wowwww sitting at the bar looking at my phone just in time to see the freakin waffles! That was innnnteresting

 

[Animal Midwife]

Wowwww sitting at the bar looking at my phone just in time to see the freakin waffles! That was innnnteresting

Why was it interesting?

 

[Stagg737]

Why?

 

[Lupin21]

Love how people come out of the woodworks at lynch end. lol

 

[WeimMama]

Why was it interesting?

Because I looked at my phone expecting to see a vote tally and instead saw waffle party with no idea of any back story cause I haven’t looked at anything since I last posted

thinking 2 wolves max on any of the 4 way candidates

No no. Two wolves max on any single candidate.

 

[SnowshoeDog143]

At some point someone is gonna have to explain to me why there's so much resistance to lynching capri

I don't see what is sketch about her? She seems to be playing her normal no cares self.

 

[Karabiner13]

@cubsrule4e why the last minute switch? What info do you think you'll gain with my flip?

still waiting on @Stagg737 telling us what info he'll get on my flip and who it will better inform him of

 

[PippyPony]

~~~~~~

Unlynch Gwen
Lynch Kara

Sorry, this was too late.
~~~~~~

 

[cubsrule4e]

and what info will you get?

Whether I’m being pocketed or not

 

[SportPonies]

well then.

 

[Stagg737]

@cubsrule4e why the last minute switch? What info do you think you'll gain with my flip?

still waiting on @Stagg737 telling us what info he'll get on my flip and who it will better inform him of

I already told you who it would inform me about. I also told you it will take a while to compile the info you're asking for. Probably be about an hour before I can give full reasoning.

 

[Stagg737]

Seeing as Gwen posted a total of 5 times this game, I'm pretty interested to know why so many people actually found her sketchy enough to lynch other than inactivity.

 

[WildZoo]

Hey @Karabiner13 can you point me to the D1 lynch tracker again?

Edit: or maybe it's the D2 one that I want? I dunno whenever that 4 way tie happened. Time is a construct that I can't keep straight right now.

 

[SportPonies]

YO I AM SOLO MODDING FOR THE NEXT 24 HOURS; IF YOU LIKE ME IN ANY CAPACITY, I WILL BE VERY GRATEFUL FOR EARLY ACTIONS

 

[Karabiner13]

Whether I’m being pocketed or not

I've barely interacted with you, I can't pm with you, so how am I pocketing you? If it's someone else you think is pocketing you, please get a better reason for lynching me

 

[Karabiner13]

Hey @Karabiner13 can you point me to the D1 lynch tracker again?

if you give me a few minutes, I can give you days 1-3

 

[muttmanager]

I also have no role to reveal so I've done all I can

I don't believe this (no, im not asking for a role reveal) we havent seen a vanillager yet and a no name horse already died

At some point someone is gonna have to explain to me why there's so much resistance to lynching capri

Capris behavior seems NAI to me, what are you seeing?

Wowwww sitting at the bar looking at my phone just in time to see the freakin waffles! That was innnnteresting

So you were lurking? Any reads/feels?

 

[WildZoo]

I don't believe this (no, im not asking for a role reveal) we havent seen a vanillager yet and a no name horse already died

I'd be surprised if a game this size had no vanillas

 

[WeimMama]

I don't believe this (no, im not asking for a role reveal) So you were lurking? Any reads/feels?

Facepalm. No. I have literally been on here intermittently for the last 18 minutes tops. I will give reads when I’m back in front of a computer in a bit.

 

[WildZoo]

Anybody else ever do that thing where you're behind so you quote a bunch of posts, but don't respond to them yet in case things are addressed later, but then you decide to get involved in current events, and you want to multiquote things, and then you're forced to post everything?

Yeah, me neither.

Are you reading this interaction as v/v? I have it either w/v or w/w rn

Update on this? Think this was your read of the ziggy/cray argument

it's kind of an unspoken rule to not lynch the quiet players until mid game

Uhhhhh no

For now

Contingency Lynch Kara

I need to do some re-reads, but I had another reason I thought she was wolfy and I'd like to hear more from @Karabiner13

What was the other reason?

You're all bad and wrong for making your friendly neighborhood vmh cry. We all know I am clearly the most precious and beloved player in this game and I have never done anything wrong, ever, in my whole life

Such lies
lynch meats

8. @SkiOtter
7. @WildZoo

I didn't see this until now. When did our numbers get fixed??

It's the way you're being nice "good question to ski, she really does seem sketch" "good observation on MJ"
why not post those comments on thread?

And you were on from 1-2 (PST) without posting on thread. So that's the lurking part I guess.

I'm not following this. What was the first part about? Were you guys PM partners before she died?

That quote was saying I don't think it's wolfy that she didn't say anything in pm. And it would be wolfier if she had.

If people could stop saying I'm hedging for every thing I say that they misunderstand that would be great



Eh I don't do it a lot. And I don't suggest doing it a lot - I agree with you that its better to push your sketch reads then keep purposely lynching villagers. But it was just an in general comment that I saw how mutts logic made sense.

hmmm, seems hedgey

I don't see what is sketch about her? She seems to be playing her normal no cares self.

Capris behavior seems NAI to me, what are you seeing?

Oh good, two of my other wolf leans are defending my top wolf lean...

 

[SkiOtter]

No no. Two wolves max on any single candidate.

That’s what I said

 

[Karabiner13]

I saw it earlier too

Do we know Ziggy wasn't a vanillager?

Sorry guys, I was at a neuro research project and was trying to catch up quickly. Now excuse me while I go wash a crap ton of crusty ultrasound jelly out of my hair

Day 3

"He is moving like a tremendous machine! [...] That is a record that may stand forever." -Chic Anderson, 1973

And stand forever it has. Secretariat may be the greatest racehorse to have ever graced the earth. His death in 1989 left many admirers mourning, but his 2019 death, with the flip of a mob mentality onto him, is sadder yet.

His ability to tear up the track like a machine made him well-suited for creating items to help his allies. Alas, it was not to be; they did not want his help.

I am now looking to:

1. Lynch AM
2. Lynch Ski
3. Lynch Kara AND/OR Stagg
3.b if one flips wolf look to see who played the tie game to try to save them
4. Lynch Capri cuz tin foil

 

[Stagg737]

While I'm compiling my larger posts, I'd love to hear explanations again as to why people wanted to vote for Gwen today.

 

[capri1722]

At some point someone is gonna have to explain to me why there's so much resistance to lynching capri

haters gonna hate

Why?

Because I thought I was being lynched and that I had 2 minutes to catch up and defend. Which wasn't gonna happen. But then it turned out I wasn't lynched so all is well.

I don't believe this (no, im not asking for a role reveal) we havent seen a vanillager yet and a no name horse already died

Point of information, that's the name of a song, not just like "oh this horse is so bland and generic that it doesn't have a name"

That’s what I said

My bad, I misunderstood you.

 

[Animal Midwife]

While I'm compiling my larger posts, I'd love to hear explanations again as to why people wanted to vote for Gwen today.

I said multiple times why I was.

Did I miss where you elaborated on this tin foil? I do like a good tin foil theory.

[capri1722]

I tinfoil that you stole MJs vote to vote you and your own vote to I don't know it's a work in progress

That's like…an excessive amount of tin foil.

 

[WildZoo]

However, power villagers like Kara, Mel, AM, even Dubz to some extent

I am offend

8. dubz - cautious village lean to neutral
- need more posts
- tentative village dubz? We're agreeing in the few posts we've made?

How about now?

Oh I wasnt trying to fish, my bad.
This ability is confusing me, I cant grasp the purpose but I guess thats a mod post-game question

Mmmm accidental wolfy fishing methinks

As night fell, so began the snow as well. With no answers from the doctors, there was unease. Fights broke out during the night, with horses nipping through their stall bars at each other and others still escaping their stalls to be nosy.... or stand by those they held dear.

OK, missed this from the write up. Sounds like there was a protector involved, as some horses escaped to be nosy (tracking/seering/spying whatevs) or "stand by those they hold dear" = protection?

A lone dun stallion stood outside in the field, away from the chaos indoors. He much preferred being outside at night, where he was best suited. It allowed him the ability to take on threats to his herd and send them back where they came from.

Maybe a good descriptor for a redirector, which is what Dolphin was. Or a comment on protection?

It seemed an anthropomorphic dog had taken his place in the hearts of fans and he couldn't take the pain of being forgotten.
​

Slain by Goofy's success is @ziggyandjazzy - Horace Horsecollar
​

So Goofy sounds non-village. The phrasing of success makes me think there was a game mechanic, like RNG, or a challenge, or a 3rd party wincon (not to bring that in too soon, this is just one spot where due to the nature of the write up suggesting a "success" ie condition was met to kill, that it might represent something more than a standard NK. Could be nothing. Remember, I don't like to get too deep into mechanics or NKA, but I'm coming to a point)

There must be a scratch in the America disc. Kinda creepy, almost like someone put it in that spot specifically. A barn hand popped it out of the disc drive and studied the recorded surface. Covered with scratches and dust, even though it was just fine yesterday. CDs are antiquated anyway.

Disposed of is @sheltermed - A Horse With No Name, Anonymous messenger​

"It was fine yesterday" - that could mean this was a delayed death mechanism.

You know I don't love NKA, and frankly I haven't analyzed a write up this hard since a JDH/ @Lupin21 game.

Point is, 3 deaths in one night is worth thinking about, especially when you're worried about someone's on thread and in PM behaviour, and they have suspicious ties to the ones who have died.

How has no one talked about some of these things?

I also was confused catching up why there had been like...zero speculation about the triple kill. AM has had too much influence here I think...

I am possibly the only one here that can actually prove being a villager and I will

EDIT:

A hush falls over the crowd as a small yet impressive horse is unloaded off of a fancy trailer...

The adoring fans are all at once struck by how adorable and village
@CoffeeQuestionMark is, and they all begin to applaud and squeal for joy ​

Seemed a little early for that tbh

Has anyone had thoughts on mutts? She is another one I have in a unknown pile.

My current thoughts are that she's contributing by posting reads lists but they are very superficial and for the most part without any solid reasoning - a lot of "feels off" type language, which is fine for a few of your reads, but when that's the entire list it gets an eyebrow raise from me

1. @CoffeeQuestionMark
soon to be convert/NK

*snort* I had the same thought

7. @WildZoo
weak sauce village

This is another sign of the apocalypse I think

Leaning wolf
Cray = super sketch, being helpful in regards to mechanics but seems off
AM = super sketch
Bryndi = still dont like she survived a tie but likely NAI
Lupin = need to ISO
Killer = tinfoil zombie convert - likely wrong but i can't get past this one

Leaning village
Kara = busy irl, seems to be participating when she can
Mel = tunneling Kara, seems v/v
Capri = usually read her wrong so not really sure but seems v
Dubz = seems v
Stagg = busy irl, trying to catch up - picking up on AM sketch too
Snowy = seems v in PM
genny, cubs, dina, ski = no strong reads here
coffee = mod confirmed village

Neutral/Not sure
Weim, Capri, Gwen, skim, MSU, SAR, MJ, vmh

lynch Cray

What I was talking about above. Like there's really nothing here that tells me any real wolf hunting is going on.

lol doesn't that basically work out to your read on AM is NAI for either of you

No, it's definit3ly NAI for me but it means there's a slightly higher chance that AM is village if I think she is. Slightly.

Seeing as Gwen posted a total of 5 times this game, I'm pretty interested to know why so many people actually found her sketchy enough to lynch other than inactivity.

Well, why'd you find her sketchy enough to use for self prez when there was still time for waffles?

So when MSU voted there was a 4 way tie and she voted for none of them. Why? My thought is that she wanted to get a vote in before close, as she more or less said, but didn't have a preference who of the 4 died because none of them were her pack mates. If there was a wolf in there, she could easily have said "lynch [insert any villager in the tie here]" and claimed feels.
This would also clear Coffee, Bryndy, and MOOSE (and killer's original incarnation but…obviously).

I remembered why I wanted to quote this.
I'm curious, are you saying you think MSU is a wolf and therefore the tied 4 are clear because of the way she voted...or are you saying the tied 4 are clear because of ~reasons~ and MSU is a wolf because of the way she voted?

 

[Animal Midwife]

I'm kind of hoping conversion is not an option for Coffee? given her role. Seems pretty broken because what if they converted her before she used the ability?
