Oof, I gotta drop off recycling, then go eat. I'll try to binge this entire thread when I get back home this evening and...be engaged in the gameplay.

D1 vibes.

 

[Lawpy]

Whatever my affiliation, the vote was an obvious joke, so the reaction to the wagon is odd when it is clear that at least one of the votes probably wasn't staying there (barring zenge becoming wolfy). The whole just feels off.

I'm also side eyeing lawpy a bit for asking about the reasoning when, again, my vote was obviously a joke, and I'm sure he already knew the other two were salt. Felt like posting just to post rather than to actually ask a necessary question.

Maybe it wasn't obvious to me which is why i asked?

Did you read the post? In what universe is egg judging an actual reason to vote for someone lol

*shrug*

I've seen odd unironic reasons for D1 votes before that were serious so i didn't want to assume.

 

[Zenge142]

For coming in 5ish hours into game I’m alittle shook it’s not even 2 full pages.

Shook that the thread length is too short for game length/time left to yeet close.

Yeet diff

cause my brain didn’t go there the entire time I’ve known this game has been planned but now it’s there and I don’t think I can escape. I can never forgive you for this.

Makes joke vote.

Not sure how I feel about that. Let’s see where this goes.

Slightly village.

Why?

I was shook. I’m surprised I didn’t come into 5+ pages, but if you think a joke makes me wolfy you don’t know me very well.

 

[Animal Midwife]

Why?

I'm interested in the alley yeet.

 

[Aprilthearab]

Why are there 3 votes on zenges? Are they all based on the last game? @Animal Midwife @Aprilthearab @WildZoo

Yes

 

[alleycat03]

I’ll point out which of Dubz’s posts pinged me after I eat lunch

Not sure where my photo went, but here ya go

Spoiler: Alligator Poboy

anyways, I’m back now and headed to the airport

 

[Aprilthearab]

I got a slight ping from Dubz’s posts but I don’t know what exactly rubbed me the wrong way. Otherwise, Lawpy sounds like his village meta but nothing else has stood out to me so far.

I'm getting the same D1 vibe from Dubz as I did D1 last game where I thought she was wolfy (but wasn't yet a wolf) so I see what you're seeing but I'm not going to get hung up on it

 

[samac]

Yes

Oh hi I forgot you were here.

 

[Aprilthearab]

Because so many piling on very early seemed wolfy. Like I get wanting to get the salt out, but since there’s little dialogue and vote switching thus far, I’m expressing that I don’t think Zenge is the right person to get a D1 yeet unless he does something actually wolfy

I don't intend to stay on my salt vote, there's still time in the day

 

[Viscernable]

yeet zenge

I also microwave(d, before I stopped eating them) eggs and people always give **** for it but I swear they taste the same!! A kindred chef.

 

[Aprilthearab]

Oh hi I forgot you were here.

Yeh, I had a 400 mile drive today and I'm starting up barn chores late right now so I'll be gone for a little while again now

Oh god I did not read carefully enough to realize we had to actually figure out who to eliminate in the next few hours

Good morning fronds. Y'all seem a little salty

yeet zenge


for judging my microwaved eggs

These two posts were the ones that made me go “hmmmmm?” And pinged me. The Rihanna post was clearly a joke and didn’t ping me the same way.

I realize this, but that wasn't my point.

All I’m saying is that your first few posts seemed off and you jumped on the leading vote for a joke reason. Wolves tend to blend in and not call attention to their votes, and they can have “joke” reasons for a vote as well. I know that I’ve made it clear that I do not want to yeet Zenge on D1, and I’m glad it appears that others are in agreement

Did Dubz’s vote, specifically, feel wolfy to you, then? Since the other two votes were placed when there were 0 or 1 votes on him so I can’t see how they would be piling on

 

[Viscernable]

Dubz is the wolfiest imo but that’s just because she had slight pings to me, as I already mentioned. Not enough to justify voting there yet, but I’m keeping an eye on her

Nvm i see this was answered

 

[alleycat03]

Yes, Dubz seems the wolfiest. AM and April had actual reasons to salt vote Zenge from the previous game, but Dubz was a wolf with Zenge last game, so I think that’s why she used a different reason to “salt” vote him and try to blend in. That’s why I called it out and said it seemed weird

 

[Viscernable]

that is clearly a bird, not a rat with wings!

Just what are you trying to say about pigeons, here?

Spoiler

 

[alleycat03]

Since we have less than 4 hours left until the yeet deadline, it’s definitely time to drop my salt vote on Vis. So far, I like her D1 posts

What do you like about them?

 

[alleycat03]

What do you like about them?

She seems to be contributing and I like her logic and questions in the few posts so far. She’s also doing PbPA like cray. Would like to see some more content and less fluff, but I don’t get any pings from her and I don’t see any reason to keep my salt vote on her

 

[Viscernable]

Maybe it wasn't obvious to me which is why i asked?

This is a spicier lawpy than I’m used to. I have no idea if that’s AI. @Animal Midwife ?

All three were jokes so I'm really not seeing where your pings came from tbh

 

[differentiating]

She’s also doing PbPA like cray.

Pardon my ignorance, but what does this stand for? I've never seen that acronym before.

 

[PippyPony]

Pro tip: do not reintroduce yourself to post-vaccinated society by hosting a large party at your house that includes many small children and an inflatable pool

Glad I'm still alive in this game because I am definitely dead IRL & need something to veg out with

 

[WildZoo]

Yes, Dubz seems the wolfiest. AM and April had actual reasons to salt vote Zenge from the previous game, but Dubz was a wolf with Zenge last game, so I think that’s why she used a different reason to “salt” vote him and try to blend in. That’s why I called it out and said it seemed weird

Placing a vote that puts someone in the lead for a reason that is absurd does not really fit the definition of blending in

 

[Zenge142]

Lead Pennsylvania.
(But really Post by post analysis)

 

[WildZoo]

Now I get to wonder about whether wolf!alley picks me of all people to place in her wolfiest bucket d1. Hmmm.

 

[alleycat03]

Shook that the thread length is too short for game length/time left to yeet close.


Makes joke vote.

Not sure how I feel about that. Let’s see where this goes.

Yeet Samac

It also seems a bit odd to me that Samac had a joke vote so late in the yeet cycle. Would like to see some more substance from her

Yeet Samac

 

[Viscernable]

Not anyone really standing out as someone I want to flip yet. I’m getting nervous about whether we’ll be able to find anything particularly AI when we still have just just 3 pages with most of us only having a few posts. I kind of feel that sus is defaulting to alley because she is one of few people who have made more content posts and most people are just flying under the radar. I don’t agree with her reasoning but I understand wanting to get discussion going quickly on D1 and hopping on even the slightest ping you get. There was no real content yet when she first posted that. She’s also been misyeeted early pretty often so I want to get more data before going there.

 

[samac]

Like the substance I had questioning you?

 

[Zenge142]

Do you think it’s outside of village!Alley’s meta to get pinged by you for your joke vote? Honestly this whole exchange between AM and Alley read as village/village to me.

Spoiler

When Zenge is village, he’s a strong villager IMO. I don’t think it’s a good idea to yeet him day 1 based on salt.
Obviously that doesn’t mean much since my current vote is on Vis because of saltiness, but we have hours left until yeet.

Okay, but then why say this if you're aware it's a non-issue at this point?

Because so many piling on very early seemed wolfy. Like I get wanting to get the salt out, but since there’s little dialogue and vote switching thus far, I’m expressing that I don’t think Zenge is the right person to get a D1 yeet unless he does something actually wolfy

It's 3/16. Who are you wolfreading on the vote?

Dubz is the wolfiest imo but that’s just because she had slight pings to me, as I already mentioned. Not enough to justify voting there yet, but I’m keeping an eye on her

Also, it’s 3/16 people total, but it’s 3/8 of the people who are currently voting. I can see a few people checking in at yeet deadline and just voting on the leading wagon without justifying, and that leads to a Zenge yeet even though he has *only* 3 votes right now.

Yes, and Vis is 2/8 of the people currently voting. Are you not worried the same will happen to her?

It’s possible, but I’m also not unwilling to unvote Vis and hop on somebody else that seems wolfier later on. I can’t control who is on zenge’s vote, but I can point out that too many people piling on makes it seem like an easy misyeet, so that’s what I did.

 

[Viscernable]

It also seems a bit odd to me that Samac had a joke vote so late in the yeet cycle. Would like to see some more substance from her

Yeet Samac

That said, this post is worrying me

 

[Animal Midwife]

Still not sure yet.

 

[Zenge142]

I was shook. I’m surprised I didn’t come into 5+ pages, but if you think a joke makes me wolfy you don’t know me very well.

It wasn’t just a joke it was a joke vote. But you are right that I don’t know you as a player that well.

 

[samac]

It wasn’t just a joke it was a joke vote. But you are right that I don’t know you as a player that well.

It was a joke vote in my first couple hours on the game with <2 pages total of content and maybe 1 real vote on the board at the tome.
I also salt voted cray twice in England for the lulz.

 

[Zenge142]

I’m alittle interested that you seemed to be noticing stuff about alley around the same time I did, your first post responding to her came 3 minutes after mine.

What are your current thoughts on Alley and Dubz?

 

[samac]

What are your current thoughts on Alley and Dubz?

Alley is giving me the tingles, that first post about Lawpy felt like a pocket attempt and her defense of “omg we can’t yeet Zenge day 1!” Felt like a pocket attempt on you.

 

[Viscernable]

You reading z and lawpy village, then?

 

[samac]

You reading z and lawpy village, then?

Not necessarily. I’m overall pretty neutral on them, if alley flips wolf though I would be inclined to lean them village because I don’t think she’d come out swinging to talk up wolves in the first 2 pages.

 

[Zenge142]

And Dubz?

 

[WildZoo]

Do you think it’s outside of village!Alley’s meta to get pinged by you for your joke vote? Honestly this whole exchange between AM and Alley read as village/village to me.

I have no clue, though I don't recall her being pinged by my d1 posts in previous games. I didn't say it was outside of her village meta though. I was considering whether or not she would pick me as her d1 push as a wolf.

 

[samac]

And Dubz?

She’s not done anything particularly wolfy.

Worried about something going wrong while you're away?

 

[alleycat03]

Like the substance I had questioning you?

Still not a lot of actual substance, and I feel like I adequately explained already and answered your questions. The joke vote felt off, and I feel like you had actual suspicions you could’ve acted on, but instead you decided to post a joke vote. Like why did you throw so much sus my way and then go off in a totally different direction and vote for diff?
