I’m asking Barks if my digging into the Night Kill choice is making her nervous for some reason. Felt like she was trying to stymie discussion.

Reading back through I feel worse about sunny for no specific reason... Hmm.
I mean the whole game. Seems like you're answering every question with a different question. It's very hard to get a read on you when you do that.
PSV pls. What would you like to know?
Whether you're village or a goon. Also, since you posted your reads list, comfortable with sharing what you were waiting for?
I’m still waiting. Especially with so many votes off the board.
I think people are holding because we don't want to trigger maj before we're really confident about who we're yeeting. That's why I'm holstering for now, anyway.

Oh hey I was just doing this too.
She also was sus of True.
A conundrum for me because I had both of you leaning more village. But I'm mulling it over. The kill also could have been intended to frame you (or True).
Okay but Maj is like 7 votes.
I don’t know what to make of it tbh

Okay then
Yeet sunny
You can dig all you want. I just don’t know what you hope to gain from it
Well, I've been thinking the NK was to frame me but I figured it would sound hella defensive if I was the one to bring it up.
I think True and I are both better wolves than to NK someone who was putting a bunch of sus on us.

This is where my brain is currently.
Village leans:
True
Zenge
dolphin
Cray
Neutrals:
PSV
genny = Dubz
Undecided:
speechy is really hard for me to tell because there’s like 0 content but I feel like a noob wolf would probably have made more effort to seem like they were contributing? And it's easier to fake that than to really get into it as a villager, so I kind of want to lean not wolfy at baseline here, but it's not based on posts and I won't actually consider it as a result.
sunny - because I need to go look at England, but I've felt like her posts, when she was here, were what I expect from village!sunny. But my only real memories of England from prior to subbing out don't involve her at all, and that's the only time I played with her wolfing.
Concerns:
mayo
Barky
I keep going back and forth on whether I think Vis is getting stretchy in ways that I think are wolfy or if I think it's village!Vis trying to solve.

Ohhh
Yes, which is why in my earlier post about Paws's NK I said speculating on the rest of it is WIFOM.
She told me she would be pulling up the thread soon!
So I do think it’s interesting that you’re including True, given the WIFOM of it.
Are you clearing/village reading True because the NK would be just “too obvious” and True is “a better wolf than that”?

No. I was village reading True from the get-go. I think he has a pretty clear tone shift from village to wolf and I haven't noticed that.
I only included him because Dubz mentioned us both. I know I'm not a wolf and I'm 99% sure True isn't, either.

I'm kind of bothered by how much PSV is jumping in to defend her sister any time someone mentions her, but I'm always massively triggered when True and stoat do that too and it's never helped me correctly ID one or the other as a wolf.
But it bugs me.

I was waiting for this as well, especially since I voted for her yesterday. Is it weird that no one decided to push that?
In my personal opinion I feel like night kill analysis benefits wolves more than the village because you can stir up a lot like with this one. Oh well I don’t know why anyone would kill paws bc she hasn’t played in forever so that automatically rules out dubz, and then well if anyone then uses that NKA to push someone that’s sketchy because they might be trying to frame them. I find it has people hard clearing or ruling in or out specific people much too quickly which I think is just more detrimental to the village than anything.
However I’m not trying to say it serves no purpose to discuss, just that I think it ends up being worse if people are quick to form opinions or use it as thing to “trap” people in I guess

It is funny that you and Zenge begin the game with shotguns pointed at each other 😂
Not yet, but I have no village points for her and I usually do get village feelings from village sunny

No, no, it's only on D2!
And then on D3/D4, Cray and I get extremely paranoid about each other.

Oh dear yeah, but I mean more of the general trend feels like you usually know when I’m village. But I don’t claim great WW memory.

It's because:
a) I encouraged her to play this game;
b) I don't think she's scum;
c) she is a baby noob and I don't want her to die early because I want her to get addicted.

What if I add "i promise"? I promise I'm not. I am a villager.
Truenamer
Toothy, Furry Villager
It's true, wolves aren't allowed to make promises.
I know it can be a little hard keeping the usernames distinct and clear, I still have that problem sometimes. Are there any people giving you especially good/bad vibes, any big outliers?

It's just because we like each other. Neither of us knows what the other is.

Dina opened a PM with me when I was lone wolfing and the title was “No woofs allowed” and I was paralyzed with fear because I wasn’t allowed but I couldn’t tell her that.

speechy. Game thoughts. Pls.
You may well be village, but you need to help us read you by more than just saying you’re village.

I don't know that killing someone sussing you is necessarily a bad move
I also don't know if we have the evidence to suggest that either of you would be opposed to doing it
But separately from NKA I feel like you're both tonally different from your play last game so at least for right now I'm kind of shrugging at the night kill unfortunately. Might circle back around to it.

I will say I'm a bit more comfortable with my True read than my PSV one
But also take that with a grain of salt because manatee goggles

I think I'm going to base my thoughts off of participation and the tone of the posts. If you ask me to justify any of these, I probably won't be able to give you a great answer but I can try. Mostly it's just feelings and tone.
Maybe Village:

PSV
Me
genny

Not Sure:

Sorry it took so long! I went back through and looked at quotes from everyone to get an overall vibe.

Hey, shorty feels pretty good to you right now, right? I have a tiny bit of residual concern from her starting the wagon on Please, but I feel like her misgivings and movement off of the wagon were pretty natural for a villager, and all her posts today have felt solidly pro-village and helpful.
I’m feeling pretty neutral on everyone. Lots of wavering back and forth.
More village:
True
shorty
PSV
Dubz
Neutral (no real concerns but haven’t seen much of anything to support village either):
barks
speech
genny
dolphin
Slightly lower than above since I feel I can usually get a village lean on village sunny:
sunny
Neutral to wolfy (hard to separate out due to the wavering indecision. It keeps changing whether I have them village side of neutral down to wolf lean and back):
Cray
mayo
Z

From the Cray “trust no one not even youself” school of thought, I see
Also, why?

I was afraid I'd be asked "why". Honestly I don't really know for sure. I guess just tone of some of your posts but also I don't know your usual tone so I could be completely off here. I'm not going to make my decision until much later so nothing is set in stone!
Wait explain cray to me
Truenamer
Toothy, Furry Villager
Agree, Cray has seemed pretty solid to me so far.
