HoWWrses: Game Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Need to hear a ton more from @Stagg737 regarding reads. The questions felt shallow last night and didn't share original views.

@Miranda Senft Why did you vote for dolphin last night?

@Dinashadow @muttmanager What do you think now?
Helloo 🙂 I voted for dolphin because I felt comfortable there. I didn't like the leading candidates or the whole wafflefest that was happening. I felt (and still do feel) sketch for kara but I wasn't about to waffle at that moment.

Fun fact: Seattle Slew was named for the sloughs in his owner's native Washington State and he became the only horse to win the Triple Crown while still undefeated.
 
Most wolfy - in no order
Miranda - as much as I love gifs, at this point shes been active enough to have some leans
AM - seems off, mainly feels - still asking her usual questions but i think thats NAI
Coffee - need to ISO but feels off
Cray - im not really following her logic but I'll reread her posts

Least wolfy
WZ, MSU, Cubs, Capri, Shelter, Ski - not setting off any red flags rn
Mel - always have sketch vibes here, need to sus out if its residual or relevant to this game
Lupin - asking good questions
ziggy - seems less defensive than usual - likely NAI

Need to ISO and/or hear more from everyone else
 
I will mention the "issue of killerleaf ressurection" I don't consider an issue. Also think she has been playing long enough to know there is no way for the wolves to have "sniffed out" barkley as the vig by N1 unless Barkley did relay to PM partner, but it seems way more likely that it was just a lucky hit and I would definitely not immediately think "PM partner"
Interesting because Barks was next to cray and lupin.

Why didn't you want to waffle to Kara? And will you still vote for dolphin?

Can you break this list down a little more to include a village-leaning section?

Because I didn't. And I don't know. Might be leaning away from that.

Okay, I just don't know why you kept asking people about Kara and whether they saw the sketch there if you weren't interested in the lynch. Leaning away from dolphin or Kara? And are you post restricted?
 
I will lynch the next person to offer up quotes and NOTHING of their own writing to go along with it. Not a mind reader. The chances that you'll put together two quotes and that what you make of them and what I make of them being the same, is basically zero and basically why this game exists where we can comment on what other people say to problem solve.

I could list why doing this is actually legitimately wolfy in so many ways, and not just lazy villaging.
Sorry I did it specifically for Ziggy, I meant to put something like here you go Zig Bc she asked the question burn I forgot. It was literally just she said I didn’t see anyone mention what AM did was Wolff but Lupin did so I quoted it. I normally don’t do that, so I will apologize in this instance but also like I prefer quotes vs I’m writing this long post with no context or proof of what I’m saying but look at me village so hard. So to each it’s own I guess.

Because I want to know how other people are gauging her behavior. Leaning away from dolphin. What do you think?

Fun Fact: Black Beauty is a horse from the novel by Anna Sewell written in 1877. However, "Black Beauty" is not the full title. The full title is "Black Beauty, his grooms and companions; the autobiography of a horse, 'Translated from the original equine by Anna Sewell'

But are you feeling she's villagey or wolfy at this point? What made you change your mind on dolphin? What do I think about what?

I feel dolphin is leaning more villagery than she was yesterday but she's not off my radar. Not ready to vote there again. I think she's sick and I haven't "changed my mind", she's on my radar. I'm just not gonna vote there again today unless she gives me a reason to. And I was saying "What do you think?" In response to your question of whether or not I have a post restriction.

Fun Fact: The model for "Spirit" was a 3-year-old Kiger stallion named Donner. Real horses were recorded for all the audio. At no time were any human vocalizations used for the horse characters.
 
Ohh really? We just got a little over the weekend
View attachment 250476
And classes were delayed 2 hours for this (don't laugh at us east coasters/midwesterners)
14 inches accumulated. I couldn't get out of my complex because it finally went above freezing so now it is wet, compacted snow and I have no traction going up the hill... 🙁

So anyone else sticking out now?
 
I like the MOOSE pressure because I feel like she got panicky at the end of the day and not in a villager way.

Still waiting for @Karabiner13 and @Lupin21 to come back and explain their gameplay yesterday. I like both of them for wolves individually, but I don't think they're both wolves together.

@vetmedhead where are your thoughts today?
 
Why get mad at dolphin for doing this but not AM, who literally did it a couple posts above her.

I believe dolphin was responding to me, and it did help me. I said I didn't see anyone calling it wolfy and she quoted where someone had called it wolfy. It made perfect sense to me. I missed where someone said something and she helped me see it. Don't see why she needed to add commentary to that or why you are getting mad about it if you can't understand what was going on.
Lol whoops hadn’t seen this yet.
Wait now I'm getting told I'm cocky :heckyeah: this is new

(I feel like I am allowed to be happy about actually helping catch wolves last game tho)

And yes you can my sick brain was like woah hold up.
 
So anyone else sticking out now?
MSU, Bryndi, and Stagg for timing but honestly for Stagg it seems like NAI but MSU made a vote, realized she (sorry if you're a he) had time and then didn't vote again.
Bryndi came in late for self-prez (understandable move) but the timing was weird.
SAR voted for killer and stuck with it but eh, just weird feelsies there
Kara sketch for reasons stated previously
Genny is a bit on my sketchdar but I can't really place why
and Gwen seems eh, but we'll see.

For now, I think I'm going to
Lynch MSU

Fun Fact: Bullseye was originally going to have a speaking voice by Martin Short, but John Lasseter decided to make him a non-speaking character since he thought it would be more appealing to audiences. Also, Bullseye may have been an inspiration to Sven the reindeer from Frozen in the sense that they both act as dogs, are very cheerful, and show extreme loyalty to their masters (Kristoff and Jessie respectively).

Holy **** that is epic
edit I mean the snow not the transport difficulties

Oh good, I wasn't excluded. Canadians can laugh as they please (Vancouverites excluded as they also cancelled everything for this today)
I ****ing love Vancouver, I have some relatives who live there. But yeah their climate is basically ours (west of the cascades, only 5 hr drive from here) so lots of rain but not lots of snow

It snowed 6 inches last Monday, then started snowing Friday and hasn't stopped. Should be turning to rain tonight.

Fun Fact: Go Man Go was named World Champion Quarter Running Horse three times in a row, one of only two horses to achieve that distinction. Go Man Go was considered to be of difficult temperament. While waiting in the starting gate for his very first race, he threw his jockey, broke down the gate, and ran alone around the track; he was eventually caught and went on to win the race. During his five years of competition until his retirement from racing in 1960 he had 27 wins, earning more than $86,000 (approximately $769,000 as of 2019).

AM - seems off, mainly feels - still asking her usual questions but i think thats NAI
Coffee - need to ISO but feels off
Cray - im not really following her logic but I'll reread her posts

Least wolfy
WZ, MSU, Cubs, Capri, Shelter, Ski - not setting off any red flags rn
Mel - always have sketch vibes here, need to sus out if its residual or relevant to this game
Lupin - asking good questions
ziggy - seems less defensive than usual - likely NAI

Need to ISO and/or hear more from everyone else
Can you tell me more about what the difference between "not setting off red flags" and "need to hear more from everyone else" is? I am also confused why you say Mel always feels off but then he is in your village leans list.
I like the MOOSE pressure because I feel like she got panicky at the end of the day and not in a villager way.

Sorry, I am dealing with some personal issues today. Working on it but can't promise anything fast
Genny is a bit on my sketchdar but I can't really place why

I haven’t played hardly any but I have gone through several prior games and agree that this doesn’t look like Mel wolf from the two I games I saw him as such. I could get behind cray here.

Which two games did you see Mel wolf in?

What do you think of the fact that Cray also said there is a wolf between Moose/Kara/Mel even if she thinks Mel is extremely village?

I'm busy today. Isolate my posts and you will see my progression. I'll be on later.
 
Do you think Kara is a wolf?

If I’m reading Mel as village and cray agrees, and they’re both on Kara I could certainly go that way, but I need to look into her more. Harder to research on the phone in clinic than on desktop where I can pull up different windows and quotes faster. Will update more on her later

What I'm gathering is that lynching kara will provide info as to whether or not these are people we should trust.
But I also like my cray vote.
