vote dubz before you lose your good seat on the bus

at first i was going to joke about how i have never been in your vip spot list anyhow
but then i realised that you were making a bussing joke tbh

 

[Boquise]

You commented on his take and I wasn’t even on thread no? I think.
At the time I was voting him though so I’m not sure what’s so weird there.

i dont keep track on whos in the thread and stuff
it is more like, it is weird to me that that was never something that interested either of you to talk to each other about

I mean you responded to him 3 minutes after he posted his thoughts on me and him having opposite takes and brought attention to it. Would you have liked to see him question me? Or me question him after you already called attention to the discrepancy?

i honestly forgot about it being 3 minutes apart and that that it was new to the thread, so i guess what i wanted was to him to respond to you about it or you talk with him about it

Ok on page 4, and some thoughts as I go...

Me: Wow Jay already feels better than he did last game

Also me: Uh huh, you're just getting pocketed again

First post that led me to question whether Dubz was testing the waters for whether the town would revenge-vote JJJ. I had originally leaned JJJ more village as a result, but this also could be Dubz putting feelers out for a packmate. Possible W/W which does not improve in the following series of posts:

Dubz is a town read.

@WildZoo I understand wariness of pocketing after the previous game. Treat me with whatever caution feels pertinent. But I am now placing higher value on your perspective, because I think you're honest.

"I think you're honest" feels wicked gross here on re-read.

In reality, I was mostly just checking in to show off my detective Kirby avatar. I'll free up shortly to actually contribute

Does feel like a wolfy pop by, but I think I ended up liking some of Mighty's later posts, so just noting it.

I'm including both the original [second] post here and the correction just for full context, but I am referring to the corrected version when I ask:

Do you believe a push can be opportunistic but not suspicious?

I liked this post originally. I think I still like it? It's a decent point.

Oh darn. Premature post. Ah well.
I feel moderately confident in saying JJJ is town. While I don't doubt he could change his approach from last game after wolfing, he is much more genuine. Reminds me more strongly of WWatch. Therefore I don't see it being wolfy theater.
I don't remember why I quoted the other two.

Little hedgy here -- "I don't doubt he could be wolfy, but I also think he is genuine"

Nate's friend from The Avocado. 🙂 I think I started playing over there before he did, even? Plus I have a little forum experience, on MU and elsewhere, but in general I'm a garbage forum player.

Who are you? A wolf? Hmm, maybe not; I feel like a wolf would be more likely to be really nice and try to pocket me. 🤔

Last part of this pinged me a little on re-read. You know nothing about me -- what makes you think my wolf persona would try to pocket a noob? Maybe I like to eat noobs for breakfast when I wolf. Maybe I like an easy target. Given that your other posts feel highly crafted, this comes off as a little naive.

is there ever a time I catch a wolf on day one that it’s not something little I poke at to see what happens?

I quoted this but now it just makes me feel neutral about samac again when it's out of context

Hmmyes this definitely helps the paranoia

If you're wolfing you owe me the respect of an n1 death, just sayin

Second strike against Dubz claiming she has had JJJ as village right from the start.

Is this really the place to play a game. I always felt this was a forum to answer questions and discuss issues pertaining to the professional school applicant and/or recent graduate. I look at the other professions and see questions and concerns about their respective chosen profession. I look at the veterinary section and see I game playing. At the very least, this just doesn't look professional. I see children here who are not serious about their schooling. Online gaming is fine, but not here.

Is this really the place to talk about professional school. I always felt this was a forum to play WW and discuss issues pertaining to wolfhunting and/or modding. I look at the other players and see questions and concerns about their respective chosen vote. I look at this game thread and see a complaint about WW being 1 out of 50 threads. At the very least, this just doesn't look professional. I see a boomer here who is not serious about enjoying life. Being a stick in the mud is fine, but not here.

Is this really the place to talk about Miracle Whip. I always felt this was a forum to talk about mayonnaise and discuss issues pertaining to squeeze bottles and/or spreading from the jar. I look at other sandwiches and see questions and concerns about their respective contents. I look at this game and see lies about salad cream. At the very least, this just doesn't look professional. I see a champs rep here who is not serious about cuisine. PB and J is fine, but not here.

Genny and Mayo forming the anti-Miracle Whip alliance and idk how to handle it.

why are you village reading me?

Someone tell me why it's not Moth.

I have conflicting thoughts on that alot.

she's got a lot of noob energy and also mothy tends to be a bit chaotic

@mightyrunner7 @Dinashadow I'm curious to hear your opinions on the Dubz yeet

I can't read dubz for ****, so I usually rely on other people to do that for me

But I haven't really liked how she's interacted with me. I don't like that she's village reading me when I haven't earned it, it's completely unlike her

i dont understand the dubz wagon

I don't understand your flip flopping on dubz

 

[samac]

It's too sweet! It's groce

Oh god this made me choke on my own spit Zenge please 😭 🤣

His last mother ****ing post lol

 

[Dinashadow]

ugh I could've split that into 4 separate posts

 

[potentialsheltervet]

Little hedgy here -- "I don't doubt he could be wolfy, but I also think he is genuine"

What really matters is the context. I.e., I wound up in endgame last game and spent literal hours poring over his posts. I came down to the difference being how genuine he feels vs it feeling fabricated.
That is what I refer to here.

 

[Dinashadow]

I wanted to ask for the TL;DR on why nate was being so highly wolf read because I felt like he hadn't posted anything but I see his wagon has dissipated

 

[Dinashadow]

yeet dubz

seems fun

 

[potentialsheltervet]

Uhhhh normally I'd ask AM this but that's not an option
Can anyone remember whether Dubz has recently (within last two years, we'll say) been pushed and wagoned early like this without being scum?

For as long as I have been playing I don’t think I’ve seen it happen.

it's kinda rare that dubz gets yeeted let alone pushed early. This doesn't really fit what you're asking but me and someone else tried to push her incorrectly in CYO II (?) (it was one of the choose your owns)

 

[Dinashadow]

Welcome.
Why?

I'm mostly sheeping zenge's reading card, but I haven't liked how she's interacted with me, because she's usually very paranoid of me. The last time she wasn't was in MHA (when she was wolfing)

 

[holdthemayo]

1. no one understands you, so you're a wolf.

You: People prefer Miracle Whip.

One is you because you’re always a sketch ball

I suppose mayo is a bit of an acquired taste

Thanks for the summaries!

how do you feel about the fact I haven’t developed any strong reads?

It's unusual, but it doesn't fit either meta from the games I've played with you.

I think normally you would be less likely to be willing to ride with no strong reads as village, since I don't think wolf samac would intentionally attract that much attention.

Of course with the plot armor maybe you would risk it for a day?

At worst it's a wash.

 

[potentialsheltervet]

Yeah, the only times I can think of where she's been yeeted were 1) she was an outted wolf and 2) she was a cleared villager who was yoten by a choker and used to make a tie and died in the rng result.

This could have been two posts. I need to remember to pad my numbers.

It's one thing to be misyeeted, it's another to be modkilled.

Lolol be serious here. Do you think samac of all players is ever going to take "the easy way out"? I'm not wolf reading her but come on.

Did you read the rest of it?

I'm village reading her. I literally said I don't think she would do that as a wolf.

I was playing devils advocate to show I had considered all options.

MAYO WHY ARE YOU VOTING FOR ZENGE?

 

[PippyPony]

PSV was the only person to make an attempt to meta read me in StardeWW 2 to my memory, and out of necessity under LyLo pressure. In that sense I believe that she would be more likely to recognize distinctions in my play than most.

I don't quite have a read on PSV yet though. I'll see what happens with her not-me reads.

Wouldn't you

Kinda interesting that mightyrunner7 got dinged for making a fairly empty first post and disappearing, and I haven't seen this post get that same treatment yet. Is this what the kids call a difference check?

I really liked this when I first read it, but it could also be a wolfy toss out to get attention on a low poster early on.

Anyone in particular that you believe is trying to use me for vengeance bait?

Dubz, which I had already said:

I think Dubz and genny are both skirting around it a little bit, fear mongering

And here she doubles down on her village read, when her posts had up until this point been hedgy:

A vengeance misyeet by way of village reading someone would be a new tactic for me lol

Dubz says she’s village reading him?

Didn't like samac popping in here with a Dubz defense.

She said she was village reading him but then she made that oogity boogity paranoia comment

Sure! (I'm a little nervous this is a furry pocket, though.)

Second cutesy pocket mention in as many pages. Projection? I'm not sure.

Something exists that gives me a town impression tier:
samac
WildZoo
genny

Has posted enough and the jury is still out tier:
Zenge142
PSV
moonstermash
PippyPony

Has not posted or has barely posted tier:
NateTheLesser
Boquise
Dinashadow
holdthemayo
DrWilgy
mightyrunner7
motheatenlysis

Names within tiers are not ordered. This isn't super useful yet, but I like to keep track as I go. For now, the green names mean the most to me.

This is REALLY fast on the hard green for Dubz, just because she gave some compliments about a strong wolf victory. (At least, I don't see another reason to put her green at this stage?)

Having Samac up there also feels bold

Is Zenge your top village read right now?


Also
I don’t have anyone I particularly want to yeet yet but
I’m gonna
Yeet mayo

I want my post count in the tally thnx

If you town read Zenge I will probably sheep that. Can you confirm?

Feels easy, idk

If I can get a reliable SDN town read on Zenge, then that'd help to sort quite a lot for me at least for the time being. If I take Zenge as town, then I also take PSV as town (via Zenge's read), and I would only need two more names for a game-locking POE. Obviously the reads would need to be correct, but it's a start anyway.

Wow on the bolded part -- I just cannot fathom someone truly thinking that they would have a game "locked" so early

Will someone please advise if my wolfy opportunistic 3rd vote on Pippy is proper?

Yeet Pippy

Gross for obvious reasons

I have a pretty good read rate on Zenges
But I won’t read him till day 2
Day 1 Zenges is a ball of unknown chaos every time
I hoped someone would capitalize on our back and forth because when we go at each other Day 1 we’re historically V/V and wolves would love to break Zenge and I up.
The fact no one did I don’t know how to feel

I hated the use of "capitalize" here. It really feels like copping to a desire to manufacture village capital and then feeling sad that it didn't immediately take.

I also can't really articulate this well, but for some reason the narrative voice/perspective here feels like it only works if samac knows that Zenge is lock village. And we all know the conditions that would need to be met for that.

Then again, sometimes samac says stuff like this.

😒

Why Pippy?

Who's pocketing which "noob" now?

There’s not a village meta of we’re village we fight, just that when we disagree on D1 it’s historically been village. I wasn’t thinking about that when I questioned him but when he came back asking me if I was furry I was like oooooh
If we’re both village per usual I hoped someone would see it as an opportunity to pile on one of us onto the other one to try and set up a misyeet. But no one did. And I don’t know if that makes zenge more wolfy like okay maybe I was onto something because his packmate wouldn’t join him or if they just left us alone hoping we’d eat each other. Does that make sense?

I also didn't really like this explanation, and I feel like everyone else totally ignored it.

How is "we always do this when we're village" NOT village/village meta?

And why would she be gunning for a misyeet of Zenge if she thinks he's village?

I've caught up.

My Pippy vote seems fine. Pippy has accrued more than enough thread tension between Zenge/Genny even prior to my meme vote.

Exploring the potential perspective slip I think would be positive.

Positive for who, exactly?

I do feel generally solvey energy from most of the players that are present, exception Genny and Pippy.

Samac vs Zenge on MightyRunner is also interesting. It could be T/T, but in the case of T/W, I'd say it puts an odd feeling in my gut on Zenge.

I don't remember why I quoted this -- probably because I was still mad about not being called solvey

Other initial thoughts I have

I think I feel ok about zenge and samac so far.

I like JJJ's posts and reads but he scares me a little bit

Mighty's pop in to mention post count and disappearing is NAI to me

I rely heavily on meta to game solve so reading the new people will be lots of fun

Whole lotta "meh" in this post

I'm a little surprised by how many people are village reading samac at this point. Why is that?

I was also surprised by how many people had samac in green

She's tricksy that one. Always using those shouty caps to get on people's good side.

How do you feel about her so far?

Could be trying to get a read on a packmate? Maybe.

she bussed a packmate in her recent wolf game, but dubz was sussing her earlier today, so based on interactions seems less likely for them to be w/w

 

[potentialsheltervet]

Correct, samac has bussed but the mutual sus treatment looks a bit odd for distancing purposes considering neither was seriously in danger.

 

[NateTheLesser]

At that point it was more that she hadn’t done anything that seems outside her village meta. I’m up to the 14th page now. I’ve agreed with most of her posts, though we apparently disagree over one person’s reads pretty strongly. That’s not enough to make me doubt the rest of her gameplay.

She’s actively game solving is on par with her village play. I also trust and so far agree with Dina’s assessment that compared to prior wolf outings, her energy is more positive sounds like village samac for D1.

Does it bother you that she didn't have early wolf reads? That seemed to be notable according to other people. She voted for you early on but just so she could see her postcount.

I think Dubz is unlikely to strongly wolf read a packmate this early in a game. I don't think her and moon are compatible.

I don't think her and Samac are either.

I agree with JJJ and would happily vote there, but haven't made it to the Dubz wagon yet.

I don't care about early D1 votes. I don't think I had even posted at that point.

I agree it's noteworthy, but she's never done it as a villager or as a wolf. Seems a risky strategy to roll out in a game if she's wolfing?

 

[mightyrunner7]

@mightyrunner7 @Dinashadow I'm curious to hear your opinions on the Dubz yeet

Okay, finally caught up.

I'm not a huge fan of the massive Dubz wagon. If JJJ put a gun to my head, I'm give a village read, but in reality I'd say neutral.

It really feels like people are piling on Dubz due to Zenge's read. Wow, I almost have Deja Vu from this morning... Why are we giving Zenge so much power? I don't think this is AI for Zenge either way, I'm just more questioning everyone else for blindly following along.

Honestly, the only person on the Dubz wagon who truly feels authentic is PSV, since she has been consistently hinting at this read all game

Strongly pinged. Both JJJ and WZ are going for the low hanging fruit at the time they answered this. Pippy was being widely wolf read and I had not made a serious post yet. Which is something Dubz at least should know is not a wolf tell for me, but rather a busy/bad day at work tell.

 

[Dinashadow]

Zenge has a reading card on Dubz and has not, to my knowledge, been wrong on her in... An amount of time. That's why so many people sheeped him. Not to say he's infallible and it's impossible for him to ever be wrong on her, but it hasn't happened before and it would be surprising.
Also me and Zenge mindmelded on Dubz so I really want it to be right 🥺
