i’ll totally admit i struggled with who to put at the top of the list. but i had to pick someone and my interpretation of what happened last night is that TME and barks were both village and we managed to see through that and yeet mel at the end. that interpretation of events is also what led to me giving other people like samac and dubz some village credit- so that’s why i thought barks should go at the top. i also believe bark’s role reveal.

I feel you on this comment. I feel like village credit should be given as well. Bc they were wolf hunting and caught one. And that is what a villager would do, right? Except the best advice I have gotten is to hunt for lone wolf/3P if you are in a wolf pack. So wolf pack should be trying to find odd behavior and call it out (it makes their village misyeets more believable). So wolfpack would still have latched upon mel's odd behavior and tried to get him booted.

Now the timing of it still makes me want to give some points. Lets call them fractional points.

Nah, I have distinct memories of multiple different noobs challenging me as early as their first wolf outing (most recently would be Bob, I believe). It has more to do with confidence than experience level.

Remember that time when Lainey challenged you and then you shot her? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

Hi guys. Look, I'll attempt to explain my iffy post, but I'm honestly tired of fighting samac off my back. But please think about it from a wolf standpoint. Why would I say "us" if I was in wolf chat? Wolves are concerned about parity per se. Why would I need to clarify that. I meant for us village - for parity reasons. I'm also embarrassed to admit that English isn't my first language. So sorry if the wording felt off.

And yes @samac there was no talk of 3p but I'm not that big of a noob to not think that a lone wolf maybe some kind of a 3p. I now understand that village needs to get all the wolves so if we got the wolfpack and hadn't gotten Mel, then the game would still go on probably and it still wouldn't be a village win. Sorry for the confusion 🙁

Don't worry, there is nothing to be embarrased about. English is my first language and my wording is always off

I’m the first one on the vote and disagree with this sentiment.
Even the wolves didn’t know he was going to flip wolf so giving credit there is dangerous.
Other than to myself of course.

Yeah but I asked him if he was wolfing first, so clearly I should get the credit

There's a part of me that wants to go there just to see if you're right but I'm not sure that's a good enough reason lol
Click to expand...
Good enough reason for me!
Part of
My question with cubs is his defense of fluff and his light sus on me in the process. Not enough to start a fight, just enough to sprinkle a little shade.
I know he’ll bus, but I feel he’ll take a noob under his wing and be protective and help.
 
WildZoo said:
Note that I have not completely cleared barks because watcher can be a wolf ability and we don't know if cover roles exist. But I probably won't vote there today.
Click to expand...
If they’re not given cover roles I feel good about Spider-Man existing as a watcher.
I agree though, in a game with a lone wolf who’s win con might have been different from the wolf pack a watcher could make sense.

This was the second time you’ve brought this up. Can you highlight an example of what you mean? I have no idea what you’re talking about?

cubsrule4e said:
Zenge is bothering me slightly. Lots of activity but no posts I’ve actually had to stop and read.

True had said some sketchy things which is why I’m reading village her at first glance. I can’t see a noob wolf coming out exactly the same without having any fear of saying “the wrong thing” and getting busted immediately.

And vote violet

Zenge142 said:
Cubs pls. If you aren't stopping to read my posts that's on you.

Also I think True is a guy "him" not "her"

Also why Violet?

Zenge142 said:
No, I’m going to need more from you than that.

1. True felt like there was a Fluff pile on.
2. Midwife questioned him about the pile on because there was only one vote.
3. I commented that I understood what True was saying, based on my analysis of thread momentum.

I need you to explain how that was possibly “shutting you down”.

Because right now, the narrative you’re driving feels like a wolf trying to shade me, and Cubs backing you up should either make you nervous, or there is a nefarious reason it doesn’t.

Zenge142 said:
Same.

Zenge142 said:
I felt the same way Barks did with this comment.

Cubs might not have been “screaming village” but he had that snappy energy I saw I Stardew.
Click to expand...

so early on, cubs agreed with dubz's comment, even tho she later clarified it was a joke, and says zenge is bothering him slightly. then zenge pushes back on him a little, saying he should read his posts (fair), but later tells samac that she should be nervous about cubs backing her up. then zenge shares that he's reading cubs as neutral (the comment that says "same"). but then last night, zenge says he was in agreement with barks about cubs powervillaging. that's the shift i saw.

i'm just having a hard time reconciling that post as a rojo given AM's response to it. she clearly read it as fluff meant it to be interpreted, which makes me think the rojo interpretation is just too much villager paranoia.
Click to expand...
I disagree.
I didn’t immediately go rojo when she posted it. I was actually more concerned with her post after. But on reread and the order things went down it just feels wrong.
 
justafluff said:
So you thought TME was a wolf and that wolves moved to Mel to save TME.
I have to say I got so surprised at the fast movement towards Mel and because I had been village reading him I was expecting him to flip village. So I’m not going to bother with True’s quote of “when” that much.
Click to expand...
I wouldn't say I thought TME was wolf more than anyone. I had poor reads on everyone. I felt like the movement off of TME made me think that TME may be a wolf getting protected.

if someone hadn't canceled night, maybe your barks problem would have self-resolved.

Eh, not 100% for wolves to go after the outted lower-tier PR n1. Depends on many factors, including protector dodging. Like the only reason we actually felt safe-ish killing samac last game was because the jailer was dead (though gasp there was a backup). So I don't think it necessarily would have been resolved yet.

Haha! Jokes on you. Turned out we were protecting a villager.
And I’m 100% sure we all knew that all along. Yeah. It wasn’t a drunken shower impulse. We’re just that thread aware.

Truenamer said:
Also I'm going to put this out there: based on how my POE's shaping up, we probably have a wolf among our low-posters.
Click to expand...
Some of the most disappointing experiences are when you put all this thought into the game to figure out the wolves and they are just low posting. I seem to remember multiple games where multiple wolves were the lowposters. Hence, I started applying more pressure to low posters.

Remember when I said TME seemed more in her village meta :heckyeah:

And then someone tried to discredit that feeling because I was comparing to RvB and I don't read my own games...wonder who that was...starts with a Z...I've heard it rhymes with fringe...
