[PippyPony]

Tempted to yeet Cheezit for just that second gif but I also haven't played with him in a while

Decisions decisions

 

[PippyPony]

I'm going to win the pony competition anyways, so.

 

[alleycat03]

9/14 before we've even hit the true cycle start is pretty good in my opinion.

Could you elaborate on what you mean by not much to go off of? I thought you noted dubz's entrance as suspicious.

Just felt like a lot of fluff so far. Dubz was the only one whose first post was a bit pingy. This is typical for D1, I’m just surprised I tuned in several hours after the game was posted and there wasn’t a lot to catch up on.

Pingy in an AI way?

 

[alleycat03]

Are we playing Calvinball?

Is this an inside joke

 

[PippyPony]

Is this an inside joke

No, it was my immediate reaction to reading in the intro that we are playing a game of sportsball chaos. If you are unfamiliar with Calvinball, then I am sad for you.

 

[alleycat03]

Eh not strongly. Just like if everyone starts off at zero/true neutral, I’d give it a +0.5 towards the wolfy side of the scale.

I just googled it and it does sound like we are playing Calvinball at the olympics

The score is oogy to boogey!

 

[WildZoo]

Okay dude... defense noted

Calling your post reachy =/ defense, it's actually offense

 

[cubsrule4e]

We only have like 9 of the players who’ve posted so far. Not much to go off of.

Yeet Cubs

Salt vote because you cupid-shot my wolf partner Coop and I’m still mad about that

See? Im a lover, not a h8r.

 

[BobLoblaw78]

What’s not sup dudes?

So many ducking tots. It's Olympic sized pressure on players!!

And essentially the same size of crowds!

Is this an inside joke

Calvinball reference has already made this game worth it! (Who would’ve guessed I was a fan)?

Decisions decisions

do it, you know you want to

 

[Zenge142]

Salt vote because you cupid-shot my wolf partner Coop and I’m still mad about that

Why though? Shorty was pushing Coop hard D1 and then backed off D2 because of it and started defending Coop as a means of self preservation. Seems like it helped you guys more than anything else.

 

[BobLoblaw78]

I call dibs on Lipizzaner stallions! (my Mom making me watch them for hours and hours is finally going to pay off!)

 

[Viscernable]

Why does Nutmeg have two M's?

Hmmm

for real is that a clue there could be a mafia as well. I wouldn’t assume it based just that and it doesn’t really affect play yet much if there is but I’m going to keep the potential of multiball in mind.

 

[Viscernable]

NutMMeg because MM is like WW, but upside down.

Oh or that

 

[Viscernable]

I see lots of @Zenge142 likes, but not a lot of zenge posts....

Lol but the tons of **** posts about nothing are less sus?

It's a bit early to call the Zenge likes lurking I think right now.

Not to defend Zenge, but Mel cultivating sketch as he has on Z and WZ so far is always worth noting

yeah I’m not a fan of throwing suspicion on people just for liking without posting because I honestly believe “lurking” is NAI for most people and because it’s a very easy way for wolves to throw shade based on something that is objectively true, which they might want to do to try to avoid blowback. Mel gets a tentative pass here because it was the first page so we’re all going to be reaching for something to actually discuss, and because I’m reading it as more of him trying to call out z to post rather than throwing suspicion in him.

Okay but like I kinda agree with cray here, that was sus

I could also brush this off as alley again trying to start discussion like she got sussed for in madagascar (?), but this does feel maybe different to me. I think that time was a theory (I don’t remember the specifics. Should probably go reread it but effort), which even though some people thought it was weak and sus, at least showed she was thinking lots of thinky thoughts on the game rather than a swipe at someone just sheeping someone else. I still want to give people a lot of leeway in terms of “weak” content posts on p1 (what the hell are they gonna make a strong content post about) so not giving many wolf points for this, but something about this post still bothers me.

It's one thing for cray to continue her usual thing but I say some such greeting almost every single game. Way to reeeeeaach.

Okay dude... defense noted

Ironically this post feels overly defensive. I usually see the dismissive “okay dude”s and such come out later in the game during long exasperating fights, not after the first post calling your post a reach.

I'm not Sporty, but I feel like this is a pretty small game for multiball.

 

[PippyPony]

I feel like alley's contributing a lot so far and people are doing that thing where they start to think the chatty people are sketchy for offering thoughts

 

[PippyPony]

@cubsrule4e where you at?

 

[PippyPony]

Dubz and Cheezit both seem kinda off to me out of the gate but what else is new lol

 

[Zenge142]

I'm not Sporty, but I feel like this is a pretty small game for multiball.

FWIW choose your own was multiball with only 14 players.

That being said, I’m not really interested in a discussion about multiple factions. Especially one stemming from Sporty putting 2 M’s in nutmeg, when it was spelled out why she did it.

NutMMeg because MM is like WW, but upside down.

 

[genny]

Yeet Zenge

just feels right

 

[WildZoo]

Dubz and Cheezit both seem kinda off to me out of the gate but what else is new lol

I'd be concerned if this wasn't the case

 

[WildZoo]

I feel like alley's contributing a lot so far and people are doing that thing where they start to think the chatty people are sketchy for offering thoughts

Define contributing a lot

Edit: to clarify, I'm asking if you're talking about content or just straight post count

 

[Melchizedek]

I’d be concerned if you were concerned that pippy was concerned.

there I’ve completed the triangle

 

[Animal Midwife]

No.

 

[Animal Midwife]

I feel like alley's contributing a lot so far and people are doing that thing where they start to think the chatty people are sketchy for offering thoughts

Wait, how? Hasn't she only talked about dubz potentially being sus?

 

[Viscernable]

No.

I know that now you don’t have to rub in my stupid

 

[Animal Midwife]

I know that now you don’t have to rub in my stupid

Wasn't trying to imply you were stupid. I just have a learned fear of unproven tinfoils.

 

[alleycat03]

Uh because if shorty died so would my fellow wolf? Because I knew shorty was a major target for NKs since she was a strong villager (though I didn’t know Cubs was the only other scum and that there wasn’t mafia in the game). I don’t think it helped us at all because shorty pushing coop on D2 wouldn’t have instantly meant she got yeeted. Cubs stressed me out by Cupid-pairing them and I’m salty about it.

 

[alleycat03]

Yeah I would really prefer to not repeat Madagascar. Trying to contribute a lot early-on always seems to get me some sus and I don’t get it.

 

[PippyPony]

Wait, how? Hasn't she only talked about dubz potentially being sus?

Pretty much, yeah. I still think that counts as content.

 

[PippyPony]

Define contributing a lot

Edit: to clarify, I'm asking if you're talking about content or just straight post count

Both, I guess. I don't see a ton of other people putting out thoughts about who they think is sketchy. Just because she's talking about you doesn't mean it's not content 😛

 

[Animal Midwife]

Pretty much, yeah. I still think that counts as content.

Hm. Okay. I will say this comment from you does the opposite of put me at ease, but I'll note it.

 

[PippyPony]

Ok AM

 

[Zenge142]

i assumed there would be owls

Can you expand on this?

 

[Animal Midwife]

Ok AM

Wow, you sure conceded quickly without me even mentioning what I was referring to.

 

[alleycat03]

Wow, you sure conceded quickly without me even mentioning what I was referring to.

I know this is a conversation between you and Pippy, but isn’t it pretty clear what you were referring to (me) based on the previous replies?

 

[Animal Midwife]

I know this is a conversation between you and Pippy, but isn’t it pretty clear what you were referring to (me) based on the previous replies?

That's what makes the concession so interesting to me. But yes, this is a convo between me and Pippy so please no answering for her.

 

[TelemarketingEnigma]

Yeah I would really prefer to not repeat Madagascar. Trying to contribute a lot early-on always seems to get me some sus and I don’t get it.

I'll admit my first instinct so far was "alley seems to be swinging abnormally hard right out the gate, must be sus"

But I have a hard time figuring out anything on D1, especially without a mayor vote or anything to stir up discussion, so anyone who seems immediately wolf-reading someone with so little to go off of always feels sus to me. But we do need people to start that discussion, and this is one way to do that

 

[WildZoo]

Both, I guess. I don't see a ton of other people putting out thoughts about who they think is sketchy. Just because she's talking about you doesn't mean it's not content 😛

It feels that way though 😛

 

[WildZoo]

But I will concede that I read her incorrectly for probably similar reasons in Madagascar, and I'm not exactly the best target for a woof to bring up with weak reasoning d1.

 

[BobLoblaw78]

That's what makes the concession so interesting to me. But yes, this is a convo between me and Pippy so please no answering for her.

I know this is a conversation between you and Alley, but let me answer for her by saying isn’t it pretty clear she was stating the obvious?

D1 is usually NAI and just throwing things out to see what sticks and get some dialogue started. I think it is fine to follow instincts and mine has always been to prod those who are silent/lurking. With that being said, where are you @Chaostrodon?

What makes you think he's intentionally lurking?

 

[Stagg737]

I LAUGHED THE ENTIRE TIME I WROTE THIS THING.

I will be extremely disappointed if there are no Owwls in this game…

 

[Stagg737]

I call dibs on Lipizzaner stallions! (my Mom making me watch them for hours and hours is finally going to pay off!)

Every time I here this it reminds me of Angry Beavers.

Anyway,

Vote Alley

Because salt is definitely a spice
