Although if we're counting games spectated I'm probably around 15ish total on SDN.

I like how some of us are actually calling M935 Dirk, lol. Anyway, based on the things he said earlier... he made an item that he could not use himself. He therefore had to entrust another player to whom he would hand it off. Thus "having" to choose Pickles as the person he trusted. If these things are true, then he likely made a mistake and chose the wrong person to trust. Since this is his first game, I'm not sure how much of that he's going to be making up. Dubz made the post (mostly directed toward me I'm sure!) about manators not getting overly involved and how we shouldn't spend time thinking about that, therefore I am letting go of the thought that a manator told him to head in this direction. I am inclined to give him the benefit of the doubt, but would like to know what others think of the situation and would also like to hear from Dirk himself. I definitely did not like the way he information he edited out and then put back once I called him out. I'm not letting him totally off the hook, but he is less suspicious to me than he was earlier today.

Something is up with Pickles and I do not trust Coffee for some of my own aforementioned reasons. I will expand on the latter tomorrow if necessary. For now, it is off to bed. Goodnight all!

I feel like if you examine my posts, I am holding to my meta of wanting to lynch dubz the most, always

Joke's on you, I'm unlynchable
 
Voting is closed from D2. I placed a CONTINGENCY LYNCH. Contingency lynches are made during the night cycle and will count towards the following day's lynch vote. These are often made for a few reasons:

1. The person thinks they may not be active the following day and wants to place a vote.
2. The person is concerned they may get NK'd and wants to inform the village that this is where their prime suspicions lie. (my reasoning)
3. The person strongly believes that individual is a wolf. Possibly because of deductive reasoning, possibly because they actually have strong information pointing towards the person they are lynching.

So a contingency lynch is an official vote that you make at night for the following day's cycle. Like most aspects of WW, there may be other reasons for placing a contingency lynch (testing for reactions, setting traps, etc), but these are the 3 primary ones that I have seen so far.
I wasn't confused about the contingency Lynch. I just couldn't find a write up of what supposedly happened last night
 
Well, that was something I suppose.. we took a risk, but I'm still slightly irritated that it did fall through as beagle being a villager.
I'm definitely wanting to hear from Pickles and Dirk very soon, hopefully with the post restriction lifted, on what in Adams name happened. Also, I had the opportunity to speak with Dirk yesterday and during this night due to an item I had, very interested in seeing how he plans on using his claimed role power during this N2 and what comes of it (assuming said role power is real and that the wolves let him live).
Until then, I think my day lynch will fall on either one of them, fairly safe bet at this point. However, not many other's (out of the 18) seem to be actively participating, kind of seems to be the same few.. due to wolf behavior or busy schedules is unclear.

For now I'm hoping to hear more from Pickles, Dirk, Stella, Dina, Em, not in any particular order, not entirely sure I remember the most recent comments from everyone else either. Really just wanting to get more information and a feel for other players, how does everyone feel about the Beagle/Pickle/Dirk situation and what resulted of it? How do you feel about Pickle's puzzling speech?

I think other than the obvious Pickles and Dirk debacle, I don't have a set feel for anyone else. In the morning I'll probably go through D2s comments a bit more closely (especially now with it being revealed that Beagle was villager).
 
\Really just wanting to get more information and a feel for other players, how does everyone feel about the Beagle/Pickle/Dirk situation and what resulted of it? How do you feel about Pickle's puzzling speech?

I voted for beagle at first because I thought that pickle's first weird post was her trying to be lowkey and subtly imply that she had information that beagle was a wolf but then I unlynched her because I felt like people (like M#) weren't actually as confident about her/her information as I originally thought and then I lynched her again because it got to the point where we had to test out the information

As for pickle, now I'm unsure if she was really trying to lead us astray or if her posting restriction (if she really had one - is it possible she was trying to distract us?) just made her seem more confident about beagle than she actually was

And then I don't know what the deal is with M# - he was talking a lot this morning about having to pick someone to trust and that being pickle so he quickly followed her beagle lynch but then he started being more unsure about her but didn't move his vote (I think) so not sure what to think there and I want to see where he votes tomorrow

In response to your questions, here are my thoughts:

Frosty. Claimed to have spoken with M935 on previous day and night cycle and is waiting to see what M935 does with his claimed power on N2. Will just have to wait and see if anything comes out of this Frosty-M395 interaction.

Pickles. It’s hard for me to believe pickles wanted to sound sketchy (on purpose) because her sketchy behavior made her sound wolfy. It seems to me that pickles was acting sketchy because someone caused her to act sketchy, and she couldn’t stop sounding sketchy yesterday. Not inclined to believe pickles would voluntary want to “out herself” as a wolf. Instead, it seems as if she was forced or instructed to act sketchy - by another player, or because some type of ability/item was used on her.

Wondering if pickles' sketchy behavior had any connection to the death of mypetmoose on N1? Since mypet had a "lover," is it possible that pickles was the other lover? Is there any possibility that pickles will end up dead at the end of N2 and we will never learn *why* pickles spoke in riddles?

Now wondering if mypet's "lover" will show up as dead at the end of tonight because some of the posters have explained that "lovers" die soon after their partner-lover dies in a WW game.

Also wondering what was the significance, if any at all, of pickles' references to television shows (“Friends”), movie, and song. Once again, confusing and distracting. Will wait to see how pickles acts on D3: does she still sound sketchy, or does she sound non-sketchy on D3? Hoping to hear more from @picklegurl.

M935. Wondering if M935 made noobie mistakes early in the game and couldn’t recover from his noobie mistakes. Or, is he is fumbling around as a noob-wolf and making mistakes. Sheltermed has been going after M935 and called him out for editing a post in violation of the game rules. Will want to hear more from @Matthew9Thirtyfive about this situation.

Beagle. Wish Beagle had tried to defend herself more on D2 because it may have prevented her from being lynched, or it might have cast more doubt on the series of lynch votes cast by pickle, or M935, or Coffee? against Beagle. She said she was asleep and Christmas shopping ... and I realize real life can get in the way for any one of us in this game ... so I can't fault her for this. Life happens and we all have lives. I get it.
 
I'm still trying to figure out why Coffee's answer to her question led to her picking Beagle for lynching
Coffee? I’d like to hear more from Coffee about this, too. At times, she sounds wolfy-ish; and at other times, she sounds non-wolfy-ish and seems helpful to the villagers. Don’t know one way or the other right now. @CoffeeQuestionMark care to say more?

Barkley. Might be leaning neutral to villager on Barkley because her posts sounded cautious and subdued. Don’t know … just my feels right now and need to read more posts from @Barkley13 to get better feels.

more than anything I would like to hear what @Matthew9Thirtyfive has to say about the Beagle village flip

Sheltermed. Seemed to strongly believe that M935 was acting wolfy on D2; and she did not change her lynch vote for M935 at the end of D2. Wondering if @sheltermed still believes M935 is wolfy?

[Edit: added Sheltermed's quote to this post.]

pickles. Sounded really sketchy on D2. It’s hard to believe pickles would "voluntarily" want to sound sketchy (on purpose), knowing that sounding sketchy would make her sound wolfy. Her sketchy riddle-talk led people to cast lynch votes against Beagle, only to later find out Beagle was a villager, and not a wolf. This type of sketchy-ness sowed confusion all day long.

@picklegurl are you able to tell us anything about your sketchy-ness on D2?

M935. Wondering why he has not been killed by the wolves, based on his D1 and D2 claim to “know a way to find out which one of two people” are a wolf. That seems to be a bold claim that was not supported by the outcome on D2 (i.e., death of Beagle, a villager). If M935 has this type of special power, I’d think the wolves would want him killed, and get him out of this game.

Or is M935 making noobie mistakes and couldn’t recover from his mistakes. Or, is he a noob-wolf who is fumbling around as a noob and making mistakes. Sheltermed has been going after M935 pretty hard and called him out for editing a post in violation of the game rules. Will want to hear more from @Matthew9Thirtyfive about this matter.
 
Just pointing out that while I don’t know what to make of this M###/Pickles/Beagle mess at the moment, I HAVE noticed that @grebes4lyfe has gone radio silent despite being VERY vocal the first day and a half. Added to the suspicious content day 1, even more comfortable with a grebes lynch

Grebes. I’m wondering about your silence, too ... as if you were staying under the radar on D2. @grebes4lyfe care to say more?

Emlady. Posted only 2 times on D2 and voted to lynch M935 based on the sketchy situation involving M395 and pickles on D2.

However, wondering what emlady thinks about Coffee because Coffee was also involved in the sketchy situation involving pickles on D2, and Coffee also cast one of the first lynch votes for Beagle on D2? @emlady09 care to say anything more?
 
muttmanager, Ziggy, MSU, killer, Dolphin. Don’t have strong feels one way or the other right now. With the exception of @ziggyandjazzy (who voted to lynch grebes on D2), all of them voted to lynch Beagle on D2.

Stagg. Provided educational information about mechanics of WW games. Seems to be looking for wolves right now.
 
Contingency Lynch grebes. She has seemed very much like her prior wolf self since day 1. I still feel this is the safest bet for a Lynch today. I have never before tried to convince anyone of where to place their votes but I think it is worthwhile to do so now. Wolf wolf wolf.
 
Coffee? I’d like to hear more from Coffee about this, too. At times, she sounds wolfy-ish; and at other times, she sounds non-wolfy-ish and seems helpful to the villagers. Don’t know one way or the other right now. @CoffeeQuestionMark care to say more?

I do not believe my answer had any relation to pickle's lynch vote. I think she was just being silly.

I mentioned earlier that I work 10 hour shifts yesterday and today and that I won’t be around much

It was to be expected, really. How many times had this fate caught up with him? How many times had it died, in one form or another, over the decades? It had lost count. The sperm whale was gone, the ground was approaching, and the bowl of petunias knew what would happen next. It sighed a deep sigh, more bored than mournful, as it crashed into the ground and shattered into a myriad of tiny pieces.

Dead is @Stella Mudd, who was the Bowl of Petunias, a villager and the sperm whale's closest friend

Elsewhere out in the universe, a cosmic clash occurred. The loser in this battle was perhaps...unexpected. A shame too, as very soon there would have been a choice made that could have determined the course of the rest of our lives.

Dead is @FrostySparrow, who was a Black Hole, a neutral player who could have become something more 🙁

Once more making s STRONG recommendation to lynch grebes
 
When the notification pops up I always hope these transmissions will be helpful. Then I'm disappointed and not at the same time...

Sent from my Pixel 2 using SDN mobile
 
I was given an item that I could use to look into a player and I tried to look into m### and it failed.
I think that’s weird and suspicious.
Lynch m###

Ugh I was just done collecting quotes to analyze FrostySparrow. Lost time 🙁

A neutral role is a type of 3rd party. This may have been explained by your manators already.
Lovers are not a 3rd party role, (it was discussed regarding a board game that they are), and you can see this as villagers get colored green.
Neutral and chaos are the possible 3rd parties. There can still be a chaos in the game. Both 3rd parties have different win conditions likely unrelated to parity. Neutral needs to live to the end of the game in addition to their win conditions and doesn't affect the win ability of village/wolf (i.e. if they kill the neutral party it doesn't benefit them). Chaos is different in that they can 1) win but die (not always) 2) if they win, it may trump a village/wolf win (as what happened when Coffee won as chaos 😏)

I'm sure I'm not explaining to the fullest because the differences confuse me sometimes too.
 
###CONTINGENCY LYNCH M935###

He still has a lot to answer to. Convince me otherwise.

Also I’m working another 12-12 today so if you wonder why I don’t come on often that’s why! Gotta Pay those bills!!
I will come on and try to read as much as I can.
 
Grrrr

I love tabby cats but not religion.

Green and white
 
We love our noobs and boobs too much!!!
Ooo this reminds me, we should have another noobies vs boobies game...I'll have to see if I can deduce the setup from the game thread
 
I was able to look into a role PM of someone. Tried to look into m###, I was told the monitor malfunctioned and missed failed.
That plus the fact he hasn’t been NK’d for 2 nights despite claiming a power role?? Sketchhhhh
 
I’m starting my work day now so if I can’t reply promptly please cut me some slack. I’ll try my best.

Wait what was it-being able to insert yourself into a role PM or see a snippet?

@Dandelion18 for against grebes do you have reasons? Or suspicions?
 
Yes, I did receive an item. For now, I am not sure who to trust. We are losing villagers, and I want to be very careful with how I vote today.
