My initial post was the two of them both get me suspicious (zig and dina) and i picked one based on feels. Today I feel the same way about both of them and picked the other one (I swear i cant keep them straight because they both are at the top of my list and are so very unremarkable), apparently. If you asked me, Id have thought I picked the same one twice.

and right in my post you quoted and yesterday I said that I didnt want to have my vote be ignored so i switched to someone who was least offensive to me of the likely votes. :Unless someone has thoroughly pissed me off I've never EVER not voted for one of the major vote leaders because I want my vote to count. You can read my logic and ill always come back to my logic the same day. but being the nonly person voting for someone when the winner has 6 votes and runner up has 5 means im effectively not playing.

I don't fault you for switching to a more meaningful vote eventually, I just would have expected a bit more push for the lynch you thought was right. Your arguments for dina and zig are super weak imo.

So... historically I’m very good at reading cray. The fact that she still isn’t posting is raising red flags for me, like she’s avoiding me reading her.

When most of the roles are vanilla, why not replace them if there is someone willing to step in and play?

Eh, replacing someone this far into the game with someone who hasn't been following the thread is...not ideal.
It would be different if the tots hadn't been spoiled and one of them could have stepped in. It's really frustrating (as a player) to try to evaluate someone who has the "well I don't really know what's going on" excuse to fall back on. It's a frustrating situation for a mod too though - been there, done that. At this point I probably wouldn't have gone to much effort to find a replacement for a vanilla role, doesn't mean it's wrong to do so. Probably not even something we should really talk about since I'm sure mods were being consistent and doing their best to find subs for everyone.
 
Unlynch DocE

On further thought, there is no way he comes in as a wolf new to the game and joins in on the wrong side of a wolf lynch and looks so suspicious.

I’ve been voting for mel for most of the game, yet cray is leaning village based on votes and I’m null? :eyebrow:

Ah you're right. My bad. You seriously had it out for him. Transferring notes got things screwed up, I switched you both in my head.

Because I am a heartless mod who hates his players
 
For the record, I wouldn’t want to modkill a villager this late in the game when that might throw the balance towards the wolves. I am much more bloodthirsty early in the game when it has less impact.

Actually, I’d prefer not to say. There is still a chance the wolves haven’t thought about this carefully enough. I haven’t been thinking strategic enough this game. Guess I was rusty. Not anymore,
Click to expand...
Still rusty if you're thinking you'll get a wolf by lynching me
 
SportPonies said:
Kind of started thinking someone would point that out.

I’m still fine seeing a coffee lynch but that’s based off my early game feels of her. I’m just happier with a Mel lynch right now because he became my strongest wolf read

Edit: also, honestly flip-flopping and trying to decide if this sounds coached

SportPonies said:
Or I’ll still take a Mel lynch in the case that coffee is alpha.

Not sure i’d personally put an alpha in a game with this setup though

Looking back makes me feel very village safe with Sporty.

In my ISO-ing of Dina she said she thought there was a wolf on the cubs/Barks votes from D1 and went back and looked and the only people left who haven’t flipped village are SOV, and Ziggy. So do you think either of these people are Wolfy? @Dinashadow

Actually I changed my mind. I really feel like we should be lynching Doc.

I feel the reverse of this

Probably either you or cray
Need to go back and look at Dina but she has seemed very village to me
 
Cray: So I agree that cray has been quiet. I also tend to have a good track record reading her.

Does the fact she’s quiet make me feel like she’s a wolf? Mmmmm I dunno. It’s not like her to drop off the radar as either affiliation, really. The only time I can remember her doing it was in Bake after she was outed as alpha, and I spent the rest of the game trying to save my and MJ’s butts. She stayed quiet so as to not give us away
——-
Dubz: I still feel squeamish about her
——-
Dina: I literally have nothing about? So that’s weird. Could be noob wolf flying under radar, I guess?

I’ve relied super heavily on meta and tone this game, and obviously it’s been successful since I called out two wolves by day 2 or whatever.... but the potential for noob wolf makes it difficult to keep relying on that play style.
———
Unlynch zig
because Dubz and skilary both talked me out of my tunnel. They can’t all be wolfy.

My heart still wants to lynch Dubz
 
thiS is my impressions,

Villagery: skimble, sov, ziggy, dolphin
Wishy washy: crayola, Sport pony
More risky; wz, Dina, MSU, DocE

MSU and crayola jumped on Mel lynch late ...that is wolffish,
Dina was early on 1st coffee vote which is villagery
DocE not lynching a fellow wolf is out of character,
I think lynching ziggy is dumb so I am suspicious of sporty and DocE

Crayola is hard to reAd but was anti MEl.

Edit...sporty unlynced ziggy without too much fuss so that is good to me.
 
Also here are many quotes from going back and looking at Mel’s interactions, overall he kinda stayed away, only slightly mentioned coffee when necessary, so he could’ve possibly done that with the third wolf. Or not but either way I have some things here.

As long as my leg is broken: I live with my parents, my mom makes all my food, and I don't have a job.

****...I might be 12....

I like my Ziggy Stardust (how has no one made this joke yet?) vote right now, and still think people should vote that way for aforementioned reasons.

I don't understand the cubs wagon or the barks wagon tbph, unless someone wants to lay out the thought process behind either one?
Click to expand...
Just slight coffee Mel insteraction in the above posts.
Melchizedek said:
@WildZoo How do you feel about Snowy, Dolphin, and MPM?

@Dinashadow can you give your thoughts on Skimble, dubz, and Sporty?

@Animal Midwife who do you potentially see being snowy's packmates?
Click to expand...
Slight interaction with Dina here.
Dinashadow said:
Sorry guys I had a long day but will be on more the rest of the week assuming I make it.



I think there is one wolf on either barks or Cubs lynch or there could be a wolf on each lynch



Skim- Neutral - she is mostly just active in dropping her votes but she at least explained Ziggy vote.

Dubz - today I'm leaning village. She's been active in chat and seems to be wolf hunting

Sporty - I haven't seen a lot of posts from her. She was like this in the last game and was wolfing so I could possible see her as a wolf again.

Any particular reason you asked?
Click to expand...
Oh where she said possibility of a wolf being on cubs/barks
Melchizedek said:
Nope, this is my thing I've always done it, get outta here 😛



Ummmm......wut.......
Click to expand...
Slighty draws attention to Dina here...
Melchizedek said:
Wolf
SOV

Wolfish
ZJ (yes, still going back and forth on this one)

Slight wolf lean
Dina - chat comment still has my teeth on edge
Dubz - see above.
AM - seeing how Snowy flipped.
SAR - Her post on D1 that hedged between cubs and barks felt weird, but some of her questions to people feels like genuine wolf hunting.

Neutral to village leans on everyone else.


EDIT: SAR ninja'd me with her catch on MPM. Move her to slight village lean.
EDIT again: Add skimble to the Wolfish list, she's playing similar to a game two novembers ago I remember I called her out for her dropping votes and vanishing and she ended up flipping wolf.
Click to expand...
This is where I question my own theory, he has so many people here and lots are actually villagers and has several people who I feel are village. He also tended to cast a lot of shade towards players who flipped village. So idk if this makes Dina a better contender or less of one.
Melchizedek said:
There is such a thing as throwing wolfmates under a bus, or "bussing"
When a wolf thinks another wolf is going to get lynched, they'll vote for their packmate to build credit with village. See what Paws did to Snowy last game and how it fooled myself, AM, and a few others into thinking Paws was lock clear village.
Click to expand...
He also made this comment which I’m just gonna have here.
Melchizedek said:
Grebes, SOV, Mutts, and MJ are the only 4 people that were on the two wagons on D1 with unverified affiliation, and I am having a hard time believing that there wasn't at least 1 wolf on one of the two major wagons. Still think its SOV in this case.
Are we still being sentimental? Can I lynch SOV now?
Click to expand...

He also completely negated that the Capri wagon he’s referencing along with cubs completely leaves the Barks wagon off even tho Barks and Capri both finished with 3 votes. So idk if just an oversight or what, but in doing so it leaves off Ziggy. But it kinda leans me to think maybe there are no wolves on any of the major D1 wagons since he’s trying to agree with others logic here but idk. So sorry for the length of this.
 
Sorry guys our surgery day ran over and then both my dogs have class. I tried to post earlier that I'd be on late but I don't think it went through because spotty internet
 
I'm going to try to catch up quick because I still need to drive home

It went through. I think it got buried in content for some.

That's why I was hoping he had a real idea lol I'm a little braindead but I guess I'll try for a speedy skim of a few things and then make some kind of decision

lynch MSU
since I think with rearrangements due to voting patterns, she floats to the top of my list
 
**** sorry guys I think I am changing my mind

unlynch MSU
Lynch cray
 
My strongest feels right now are Dina but I don’t want to lynch her when she may not have time to catch up and respond appropriately, and like cray and DocE I feel like haven’t been around enough or it’s just hard to judge from subbing in. And then I just have MSU as ???

@Dinashadow when you get back on, is SOV still you're top choice or has anything you've looked up today change anything.

@dolphin106258 Have you looked into Dina etc anymore?
Click to expand...

Since Mel flipped wolf I'm less inclined to believe SOV is a wolf unless he was recently converted.

Click to expand...

See above about SOV

I've had ziggy village all game. Converts make reads a little more complicated though.

I'll be honest I haven't had time to flesh anything out today. I was obviously on the wrong side of the lynch vote yesterday so I wanted to re evaluate but have had no time today.
 
dolphin106258 said:
Why MSU again?
Click to expand...
I have people I don't want to Lynch, and people I could Lynch. MSU was on the "could Lynch" category but I went through and nothing she has posted as seemed either positive or negative... idk

I'm sorry. I am trying my best to contribute in some kind of way while also having a lot of studying to do

Honestly you should vote for who you think is a wolf. I don't like using irl as an excuse to stay alive another day. It just is what it is.
