didnt genny insinuate earlier today that id be wolfy if somehow fluff was revealed to be a "less valuable" wolf than cubs??? and now fluff is revealed to be a vanilla wolf. that comment hasnt sat right with me all day and now it seems weird that her prediction has come true
is this you implying that cubs is a wolf? or genny?
 
Welcome to Russian Figure Skating. It's been all messed up for a long time, seems like it's only really hit mainstream media now. I watched a doc awhile ago on Eteri, and oh boy, it's not great. Her methods would probably be considered as child abuse in the US. But as long they have a revolving door of golden kids coming in as preteens and then breaking themselves by their teens and having to retire before they're 18, it's just going to keep on going :/ Ever wonder what happened to Yulia Lipnitskaya and Alina Zagitova and Evgenia Medvedeva? Retired. Plus the probably lifelong injuries to go along with it all.

(I have a younger brother who figure skates competitively (sometimes) and a Russian mom, in case you're curious why I know anything about this lol.)
I just want to shout "Lock her up!" or something but of course they wouldn't do that in Russia. Pisses me off that the IOC was like "okay ban Russia for doping, no Olympics" then "Okay okay you can do the Olympics under a different name but no more mistakes" and now apparently they can do whatever.
Johnny Weir's comment was so astute about how absurd it is that the court claimed they were protecting her mental health. You can't look at a coach screaming at a CHILD after everything she's been through this week and think that's fine for her mental health.
To clarify, I don't agree with Kamila's doping situation but I'm perfectly happy to place most of the blame on her coaching team, and the fact that so many are acting like Kamila did this all on her own is infuriating. She's 15. She's not taking PEDs of her own accord. Letting her skate is just rewarding the coach.
Also super mad that Shcherbakova didn't even have anyone to celebrate with because the coaches were too busy handing Kamila's ass to her. Like, she knows she messed up.
 
somehow an okay from True hurts more than from other people.
It's because he's so pure. Like what terrible thing must you have done to get an okay from such a soul? Shame on you sport sport.

I feel really bad now, I just missed when we discussed why wolves would want to stop the night and her comment felt really snippy and I'm in a bad mood because I don't know why everyone is wolf reading me, I'm not trying to be wolf read anymore, I was barely even doing that on purpose in StardeWW 🙁

it's okay, I was just poking fun. I'm not actually that hurt. It was just surprising to see that from you lol

Ow, nooblet pls, you can have some of my yeet armor just don't be so sad, I am squishy on the inside.
 
*******
*coughs in Sha'Carri Richardson was held to an unfair standard for outdated pot perceptions*
*******
Boy oh boy don't get me started--
15 year old tests positive for a stamina enhancer a month and a half before the Olympics? A-okay.
Sha'Carri Richardson tests positive for marijuana? Nuh-uh, ban her.
Her mother died and marijuana literally isn't a performance enhancing drug-- if anything, it'll depress her performance-- but okay.
Not to mention the IOC was going to not have the medal ceremony if Valiyeva made it to the podium... are you forgetting there's two other medalists who are being punished because YOU GUYS decided to let her skate????

See this is why I'm not suspecting you at all for not voting on Fluff, it took literally everything I had to stay on her vote, she was just so sad and I wanted to fix it
 
I would like to introduce this group of noobs to the term anti-spew though. Anti-spew is when a wolf knows they're dying and says things intentionally to confuse and make people look like viable teammates when they're actually not and vice versa. Analyzing said wolf's posts during anti-spew is pointless.

This is a new term to me.

Can I sit criss cross apple sauce with the noobs while Teacher AM discusses our new vocabulary list?
 
I had to double check what that was since I'm not super great with the terms (I know the drama but can't tell the difference between a lutz or flip lol). Is that Freestyle 5 under the ISI? My brother is an Intermediate (I'm 90% sure, at least) 😊
 
dubz, genny, kdswg and cubs are who im looking at now because i find it hard to believe that at least one of fluff's packmates didnt bus her. i was already wolf-reading cubs so that's why I've put my vote there already. i had dubz as a pretty solid village read and i felt okay about kdswg and genny, but im gonna take tomorrow to reread and reevaluate these players in the context of the fluff flip

If yall think yeeting me is what you need to do for whatever connections you think there were or whatever info you think youll get, then Im fine with that. Village can afford a misyeet at this point. But to this point with the off voters, Id look at genny over the others. The two things that stuck with me for some reason were the genny/fluff interaction today where fluff kept egging genny on to vote her and there was this odd back and forth and something about me and fluff being wolves and one is more valuable than the other. Yet when genny showed up yesterday sometime she was like "why are we voting fluff and cubs?" Looking back on it after seeing the fluff wolf flip it feels out of place and aloof, like it may have been kind of a staged comment to maybe sew some doubt about fluff, while also being able to relate the same comment to me so as to not directly be "defensive" of just fluff in some way.

Watching the sporty pbp catchup and seeing a lot of posting at once from her im starting to catch the tingle there, but mostly its just based on tone.

Id also still vote true or violet at this point.
 
I'm sympathetic because I was yeeting fluff yesterday until I had to self prez, argued with her for what felt like hours, ended up on mels yeet, and yeeted fluff again today and suddenly am being called wolfy
Since I'm not a desperate wolf this time I'll say I don't think it's reasonable to go after you. Your interaction with fluff didn't feel fake to me. If anything I think it's entirely possible she was going after you because I was. She said she didn't realize I was on your vote but I don't quite believe that.

I really think we should yeet cubs. Really really. I'm not as good at this as samac is though so, you know.

I have sympathy for the frustration, but this kind of broad "x, y, z, and also a or b are wolfy" isn't usually what I see from you as a villager.

Not sure if this is common knowledge or not, but the reason Kamila was allowed to skate was due to a weird gap in the law that I guess the IOC never caught? Basically, you can compete at 15 at the Olympics if you are turning 16 later that year, BUT you can only be accused of doping by the IOC if you're 16 or over. That's why the IOC was silent for so long, because everyone's lawyers were trying to figure out wtf to do since there was this weird loophole. I do wonder if the ROC was aware of it though and decided to try and take advantage of it.
 
I think she bussed once or twice like…6 years ago?

She doesn’t do it. Pretty much ever. Unless they’re going down no matter what and she can’t not hop on without sacrificing the wolf pack from winning all together.
You don't know me!!!

Yeah, I know she's like a "protected person" so is treated differently due to her age, but I feel like that's just a cop out. I don't buy that they're totally powerless to do anything about it, and even if they technically were nothing is stopping them from saying "We can't do anything legally but we strongly disagree with her presence" or something. Make it clear they don't support the doping and punish Russia and the coach even if they can't do something about her.

as much as i’m enjoying learning about the olympics- what are your current thoughts on this game? do you have any reads to share? we haven’t heard much from you today and i’d like to hear more!
 
I agree with two of these (genny and cubs). kdswg's voice just feels much more village to me, and dubz I don't see as a wolf.
Vets: thoughts on number of wolves? Still probably 4 in the pack, or maybe 3 in the pack since Mel was lone wolfin'?
I think I originally said I wouldn't put more than 4 wolves in the game...
Well, it's kind of hard to work out how a lone wolf would be balanced without knowing the rest of the role set, or if he could kill nightly, or what. So I'd say main pack could probably still be 3-4 just dependent on the rest of the game design.

This is interesting because I'm wolf-reading genny but you two seem mutually exclusive.
 
I would consider a genny vote if someone had better reads than just that comment about cubs.

@WildZoo genny way?
I don't like being put on the spot with that since I've been wrong a couple of times recently 😢
I think she's sounded okay though...

I'm going over fluff's posts from D1 rn, I'll post in a little bit what I find. Only thing I've got right now is that if samac is a wolf, she's the rudest one I've ever seen. Aka I'm 99.99% sure she's village and I really hope that if we have a protector they'll keep her safe. She seems like she would be target #1 by wolves considering how hard she went into fluff. I'll have better reads in a little bit though.
 
Ok guys. I'm ded, but at least I can go back to do my homework. I'm really not sure where exactly it went wrong. And although some of the things Ive said have been more aggressive than what I would have preferred to sound like, and I've made stupid mistakes on thread, it sucks to be yeeted as early as I am. I was looking forward to playing again and this just sucks. Hope you give me a chance next time!
unyeet sporty yeet fluff
Don't be so hard on yourself <3 Wolfing is hard. For most people it takes time to get good at it. I uh...did not do well my first wolf outing. Still have pretty awful wolf games sometimes. It's ok! Hopefully your next time you get to live longer 🙂


...I just realized this was pre-flip and might have been one of those twist the knife posts that I like to do when I'm going down. If so, she got me again :laugh:

If Samac is a part of fluff's pack I'll film myself eating a boot
 
it's not that common that someone asks if its a good time to kill Dina
spit take GIF
 
I'm 75% sure either cubs or genny is wolfing but now that I apparently need to choose between them I'm not sure where to go.

If anything I think it's entirely possible she was going after you because I was. She said she didn't realize I was on your vote but I don't quite believe that.

I really think we should yeet cubs. Really really. I'm not as good at this as samac is though so, you know.
i think the main reason i would wanna flip cubs before genny is because of how cubs flipping wolf would inform a lot of my reads. off the top of my head, i would feel worse about kdswg and i would probably feel better about true and violet because of how he’s been pushing them in most of his posts. but i’ve had genny as a neutral read and from what i’m remembering, i don’t think anyone other than AM has come out with genny as a strong village lean. so that leaves me kinda meh with where to go if she flips wolf. but i do think genny and cubs seem incompatible as packmates.
 
*mumble mumble*
Okay, so AM isn't a wolf.
Yeah
I don't love her hesitation on it and that it seemed like she only went to fluff because I pushed her to but
I guess...probably not
Maybe
 
IM GONNA GET KILLED ANYWAY but night closes at 10 and I wake up at 5:30. It’s gonna take more time then I’m willing to put into right now to pull the quotes together.

I’ll lay it all out in the Morning.
You're not allowed to die 😡
