Too bad we can't elect a city council or a parliamentary cabinet or something.

Like a writing team? Who ever heard of such a thing! That’s crazy talk!

I can give you a few pages. What's the topic? Is it something easy to rhyme?

Alright, fess up. Who came into my bay in the lab and put a bunch of timers on the very top shelf and set them to go off at staggered timepoints? 😡

Okay? You don't have to vote for her.
I don't find her as difficult to read as you do, and I liked her flavor audition.

You're missing True's vote on Dubz.

And I apparently am missing mayo's vote on himself.

 

[alleycat03]

And I apparently am missing mayo's vote on himself.

(he voted for himself at the end of his poem)

 

[supershorty]

@Zenge142 True's vote was before samac's, he should be 3rd in the order.

 

[samac]

Okay? You don't have to vote for her.

Do we really think flavor writing is gonna be the main focus of the narrator position?

 

[Truenamer]

Thank you, I gotta get maximum credit once Dubz rules us with an iron fist

 

[supershorty]

Is there a reason you're trying to talk me out of my vote beyond you personally struggle to read genny?

We could have a tie to try to get a writing team.

Of course, kaydubs may indiscriminately kill one/all of us for causing a tie. 🤔

After modding with kay, I will never intentionally create a tie. I know what darkness lies down that path 😬

I thought shorty was saying she can read genny independently of the position.

 

[samac]

Nope

She said better than me. Did not say good 😛

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that was when the screaming started.

Oh I'm totally going to be playing during lecture. I just had a four hour long entirely discussion-based class in a group of like eight people this morning so I HAD to pay attention lol

 

[supershorty]

Nope

Okay, because then I don't understand why you keep pushing at it.

She said better than me. Did not say good 😛

I have a history of reading genny quite well recently other than a brief panic tunnel in WWedding.

 

[Aprilthearab]

Elect Dubz

Because I want a narrator who is a good flavor writer.

Oh good, I'm on post #8 and I already don't know what's going on. Maybe should have read the rules

 

[alleycat03]

But she really does scare me as an unreadable enigma

I feel like genny was yeeted on D1 during multiple recent games? I know Dubz can read her so I tend to just rely on Dubz's read

 

[samac]

Because I like to push buttons.
And also will advocate against someone I find really hard to read, personal thing. Others can disagree.

 

[alleycat03]

I didn't let myself open SDN at all last night because I was hardcore studying. But now that the exam is over, I'm not paying attention to my lectures. I HATE having lectures after exams ugh

4 hour long class?? With discussions and a small group??? Ew. Yeet that

 

[Animal Midwife]

Well, if you mean successful yeets, I'd say it's only happened once this physical year.

 

[alleycat03]

If we are deadset on electing someone that most people can read, then we should probably be electing pleasy. I know I can read her relatively well, Samac can read her, and shorty definitely has a reading card.

 

[Aprilthearab]

I’m never this early omg
Ok uhhhhhhh

Elect samacs

Chaotic narrator = fun narrator

Are we suuuure it's a good idea to encourage the chattiest person here to talk even more? 😂

Mayo is also chaotic and I feel like I want more pigeon poems

 

[samac]

Come on alley ya can’t read me? 😛

Ma’am
Have you also met dubz

 

[alleycat03]

I think it happened during a game I didn't play recently (marvel or stardeww maybe), and then it also happened in that game last year that was a crushing village loss? I think basics?

I actually really like it because the alternative is four hours of lecture that I'm going to space out on within the first half hour. I learn so much more when I actually talk about the material and apply it to a case study

 

[alleycat03]

Come on alley ya can’t read me? 😛

No

I thought I could but then you fooled me during SPN

 

[Aprilthearab]

Ma’am

I didn't say I was going to vote for Dubz

 

[Animal Midwife]

I think it happened during a game I didn't play recently (marvel or stardeww maybe), and then it also happened in that game last year that was a crushing village loss? I think basics?

Definitely not either of those.

Basics was also two physical years ago + she was a wolf anyway to rub more salt in the wound.

 

[supershorty]

She was yeeted D1 in GlobetWWotting this year, but Basics was over a year ago at this point.

I don't think Globe was a great representative game tbh, she had so much going on IRL that she basically wasn't able to play.

 

[supershorty]

Definitely not either of those.

Ma'am, Basics was one physical year ago.

 

[alleycat03]

The only one who seems dead set on that is samac.

Okay. I would like input from others too because that doesn't seem like a bad idea. But pleasy would actually have to want the role

 

[samac]

I’m yeeting april when I can for trying to silence me
😡

 

[Aprilthearab]

A quick note about WW theory and how I will play this game:

Spoiler

Note that the arguments and facts presented here are indisputable, and that I will not engage in arguments about them, because those arguments are you wasting everyone else's time about meta that is well and comprehensively established. Go make reads so we can read you.

I've reflected on my role and realized that there is a GTO (Game Theory Optimal) play for me in this game, and therefore I am compelled to pursue it. I am going to brute force my clearness immediately upon the opening of the thread.

I am hard-claiming, and I will never be rescinding. I am the Seer. When it becomes prudent I will provide my peeks.

Benefits:
1. I will survive tonight: I do not believe the wolves are able to kill me tonight, because it is so objectively unlikely that I would ever do this as the seer. I believe that this decision reduces the importance of the seer cover to be provided by all of you to the point of it being negligible. The wolves have already been outplayed, as it were.

2. I'm lock clear: All of you already know I'm lock clear, because it is so objectively unlikely that I would do this as a wolf. You know this for at least two reasons. First, this is the easiest, lowest-stress, lowest-demand game to wolf in that I've ever played in (except for turbos). I have no need to complicate my life, as a wolf, by open-claiming on thread open, when all I have to do is provide like a C-level wolf game to probably win. This is the rare instance where you literally know that I have a billion other options as a wolf, AND that I would pursue probably ALL of them before pursuing this. Second, I engage in FPS (Fancy Play Syndrome) exceedingly rarely, which necessarily means that I know that this will look WEIRD and SHOCKING to you. There is no merit to a wolf play that instantly generates WEIRD and SHOCKED responses that I would be obligated to finesse and manage for the remainder of the game. As a villager, which I am, the burden is totally on you to not **** up and yeet me. Makes my life super awesome.

3. There are only 11 players you need to try to read, rather than 12. I have already provided a "free" peek of me in a game with a mere 12 players. Our win equity is dramatically improved by my being entirely off the table for the entire game.

Conclusion:
The burden of sound reasoning is now entirely upon you. I am the seer, and thus a villager, and thus lock clear. The game is immediately simpler than it would otherwise have been, because of my decision. Now, let us enjoy that benefit and win the game.

Also, to preempt a lengthy and pointless discussion:
It is NOT dumb to ponder this post and convince yourself of its wisdom. That is your obligation as a villager, and I encourage you to think it over for as long as it takes to quell your (initially valid but ultimately unnecessary) concerns. It IS dumb to, AFTER doing that pondering, conclude that I'm "neutral" or "wolfy." That is legitimately stupid, and I won't entertain it. ONE of the reasons it is a stupid conclusion is that the upside of this play as a wolf is absolutely DWARFED by the upside of this play as a villager. There is no equivalency between the EV (Expected Value) gain for wolf-me in this position and villager-me in this position. They're universes apart. That means I wouldn't DO the poorer option of the two (by extension, wolf-me also wouldn't BELIEVE that I could convince the entire game of the truth of these assertions for the entire game, which as an end-game wolf I would have to believe if this strategem were to be worth pursuing). A SECOND reason that conclusion is stupid is that the EV bonus of doing this as a wolf is COMPLETELY DWARFED by my baseline wolf EV anyway. Anything that complicates my wolfing life is RIDICULOUSLY stupid for me to do, given that my wolfing life is ALREADY one of the smoothest, highest expectation wolfing lives in WW history anyway. A THIRD reason that conclusion is stupid is that you would probably have to worry about being EXPLOITED by this gambit in order to get there. However, I have NEVER engaged in this, or any similar, gambit in my entire career, meaning that if there IS exploitation to be had with this play, it is in FUTURE GAMES, not this game. For these reasons, pressuring me is extremely wolfy and should not be engaged in by any villager, ever, in this game. There will be no less productive pursuit than that in this game.

Sucks for the wolves when meta is wielded this brutally, but my allegiance is plain and my strategy perfect.

Get #rekt.

Also First

... can I have a tl/dr pls
