I agree with you but I don’t think anyone was trying to focus exclusively on the please wagon

And you’re welcome for that! It’s happens before. I just wanted to ward off tunnel vision in a Maj situation and get a note over arching view of the game state.

At the time you asked there were only 2 additional people on the vote, with a bunch of people still not voting I'm not sure what conclusion I was supposed to draw.

Is sheeping reads a characteristic that you more commonly see with wolf Dubz? I did also state my own ping.

I don't know, Dubz, I've played with you wolfing a grand total of 1.5 times and the 1 of the 1.5, I died D1 and was a brand new noob.

Does it fit your powerwolfing meta? No. Do I think you're wolfing here? I've leaned away from the idea as the day has gone on.

Now I’m going in circles whether this post is really village!z assuming psv+true+shorty are village (and why village Z would do that here?), village!z just wondering if this could exist in the hypothetical world where they’re village and I’m wolf, village!Z joking/looking for a reaction, wolf!Z slipping TMI that they’re village but trying to malign me, wolf!Z trying to represent a packmate among them as village bloc with the implication here they’re clear…

What I want is a genuine reads list from you, but I suppose we aren't getting that just yet.

Do you a specific person you want my thoughts on?

I don’t want to tip my hand and waste a situation that might bear fruit, by immediately dumping my every thought, but if there’s something you want to know my thoughts on more specifically, talk to me.

I believe I asked you a question about a specific person 😡
 
supershorty said:
Not even about your current read on that person, but on your history reading that person, which shouldn't affect any metaphorical farming endeavors

1. You don’t know what I’m farming for.

2. I’m not familiar with my read rate on Mayo. I know how I feel about him this game Which is to say he’s used his position to avoid providing real opinions or content, and thus made him challenging to read

Too much thinking
Besides, the rule doesn't dictate that there is only one wolf in the first 5, just that there is at least one. So no assumptions about other players' affiliations need be made.

Okay then.

Can you read Mayo this game? Because in my view, his “I’m voting Zenges for the same reason I voted Dubz last year” is not content relevant to this game and yet simultaneously the most substantial thing he’s said all game. Thus I’ve found it impossible to form a read on him; and I can’t help but wonder if that’s by design.

Wait are you taking credit for people not only looking at the please wagon? :laugh:
 
Zenge142 said:
Viscernable pls. I’m merely saying that we should exercise caution, and evaluate the game state as a whole.

Wolves on the Please wagon? I’d believe it.

Wolves not on the Please wagon at all? I’ve seen it before. As have you.

I’m not saying “IgNoRe tHe PlEaSe wAgOn” I’m just saying let’s be careful and not tunnel vision it.

I have strong suspicion of Barks, who was a Please voter.

I also have questions about both genny and Mayo who voted off wagon.

I won’t dive into genny at the moment because I frequently misread her, but with regards to Mayo, at the risk of delving into our debate last year, he’s essentially used his vote on me to just not provide anything of relevance.

His logic is that voting me is good because it gives me practice to defend, but #1. I’m not defending against a real push for my content like I would actually be in game, I’m defending against a fake push for the sake of defending against a push. And furthermore it’s a push without teeth as it has one vote.

Secondly, last year he voted Dubz, and said he voted me for the same reasoning but Dubz was actually the one going to champs, where I’m merely the back up.

In summary, I feel like Mayo’s used his logic from last year to place a vote without providing an actual, current game related reason, for that vote, and then just quietly faded into the background.

I didn’t want to ignore the Please wagon, but let’s remember there’s more to analyze, and we shouldn’t get tunnel vision.

Well, I asked because you and mayo, to my memory, have a history of tunneling on each other, so I don't know that either of you can read the other objectively.

Do we? I’m not sure that’s accurate it a V/V context.

1. I would not have understood this if I hadn't seen your later explanation

2. Pocketing me by complimenting me and then calling me sus would be a new tactic, but sadly nooblet will learn that I HATE when people use me being a "smart" wolf to keep me in the POE 🙂

Stickmin
Madagascar
GGoats

all immediately come to mind as V/V games where you guys were going after each other, not always mutually, but you've not been good at reading each other. I'd have to look and see if there was follow through with actual votes that stuck to EOD in Stickmin and GGoats, I know there was in Madagascar.

There was in GGoats, you misyeeted him. He misyeeted you in Madagascar. There was no voting follow-through to EOD by either of you in Stickmin.

Eh I wouldn't discount my behavior last game as part of my overall meta. I may have only been technically a wolf half the time, but I was always playing for the wolf wincon. Winning with village was an accident.

Yes, and what made me uncomfortable last game was how much we were agreeing with each other, so do you see why I got nervous this time now?

Click to expand...
Yes and no. We've agreed as villagers before, with like one or two places where we disagreed. So at baseline I don't know why it made you nervous in the first place, but yes I see why it happening again the next game would.
 
supershorty said:
I meant more like if you had any reads to share.
Click to expand...
I see. I'm having a hard time coming up with any thoughts of my own since I don't really know anyone and so far most arguments are based on past games. All I can really do is read other people's logic and see if I think it makes sense. I'm hoping something big will happen that requires people to defend themselves so I can get a feel that way.
