Anyway I'd like to read more closely but since it took so long for anyone to react I'm running out of game time and running into should be working on school things time

April Fool's though, amirite?

Congratulations, you have officially received the largest eyeroll that is possible for me to do. You can pick up your prize at....

I was expecting more spectacle early in the day, you all disappointed me but what else is new 😛

It's the same reason I occasionally flip my vote every which way and create ties close to deadline. I like seeing how people react in unexpected situations. Plus the day seemed appropriate.

Where's your sense of humor, nelly? Jeez live a little.

You respond to a joke by asking where my sense of humor is? There are plenty of opportunities for criticize my seriousness and you take a joke post.

I will stress, that I cannot confirm whether pippy has been converted, but there is no reason to be hunting converts when we have gotten 0 originals.

I took that eyeroll to heart 😛
 
Let me re-evaluate.

I am still shocked that she said nothing about that post though. I know you don't know our history but suffice it to say she finds a reason to put me in her sketch pile every single game, and I still can't believe she didn't jump at a glaring one like that.

I know no one's gonna join me but pip not jumping at the chance to bury me is very out of character

I already told you why I am not doing this, and it has nothing to do with your affiliation and everything to do with not wanting to deal with the attitude I would get back for starting a lynch on you when you already seemed grumpy at the start of the game

sorry to burst that bubble but I'm 100% village, so wolf better
 
Addressing things as I catch up.

When am I not sketchballs? If not me, who would you vote for?

Sorry if I missed this, but --

@StayingPositive2017 what's your read on Stagg currently

@Stagg737 same question for you about Paws when you get back

So far reading her nuetral to village-y. Nothing really different from last time I checked. Have 4 pages to catch up on though, so we'll see if that changes.

Fine, don't start a lynch on me or whatever, but I don't see how all the tiny, irrelevant things you've pointed to in my posts were somehow more worth it than what was clearly a very out of place statement

WildZoo said:
Well for one I thought it would cause some interesting reactions. And I've always wondered what a fake rojo would do. It seemed less harmful to implicate a relatively clear villager, knowing I would flip village if I couldn't get out of the lynch, than muddy the waters around a potential wolf suspect. Plus, if the person I implicated got lynched and was a wolf, well I'd be pretty far up **** creek.

Lol sorry didn't meant to offend, it was more supposed to be in line with something I would say in wolf chat
Click to expand...
Oof. Good grief this is giving me flashbacks to the Pokémon game. I get doing a fake rojo could maybe be in the dubz wheel house of ideas. But why involve Nav if you’re truly village? I feel like I’d rather involve someone who is sketchy, not someone who is active and seemingly providing analysis that is well composed and thought out.

The way I’m reading this is you didn’t want to have a potential wolf suspect up with you to confuse/mess up the reactions? Really? Because what you’re implying is that we all see your village per you flipping after mistakenly lynching you and you think everyone will take that as oh, dubz was wrong, I’ll just completely clear this other person she implicated since it was clearly fake. 😵
 
WildZoo said:
Oh I know, but it was the one iffy one, so that amuses me

Can we also agree that maybe a more appropriate time to try this experiment is not when it would create a 7-0 lead for the wolves in the future? If they can get to 5 total wolves, that's possibly one wrong lynch away from a loss (with the animal killer still on the loose)

I wasn't going to, but then I remembered what day it was, and I couldn't resist. That's the honest truth, you can ask Mel after the game lol

I get it, but if you are a villager, you are sabotaging the game for us, and cheapening a possible win for the wolves. No one ends up happy from that.

This is true but sometimes people see you as sketch and I don’t find it all that sketchy. I could go for cubs or WZ at this point. I don’t like the way Paws was trying to question me earlier, just felt off. But I’m still leaning village there. Don’t agree with you on AM so wouldn’t be voting there either.

That's actually kind of exactly what I think would happen lol maybe not that strongly, but it would definitely muddy things quite a bit. Plus, wolves were supposed to be unconcerned by the post. That's the whole point. If I called one of them out (if I happened to be right), that would immediately draw their attention and throw off the result I was looking for.

Honestly, the responsible thing would be to ask for a mod kill at this point before the lynch ends, this way we can continue with the lynch as planned, and maybe the mod god would be gracious enough to give us an extra hour to deal with the repercussions of this.

But clearly several people were unconcerned by the post so for me it doesn’t necessarily narrow it down a lot. When I initially read it I didn’t even connect the dots. So I don’t know if it was as much of a strategy or makes me want to agree with you that it was a strategy as opposed to a Wolfy accident.

Sabotage is a strong word. One village lynch isn't going to hand the wolves the game. I fully expected reactions to happen earlier and a little more clearly, but I think I worded things a little too vaguely plus didn't consider the potential typo angle with Nav/Nah

You all are free to totally disregard anything that comes from my shenanigans, or look at it more closely if you like, but don't act like this one thing is somehow going to be the downfall of everything. And no, I'm not going to ask for a modkill lol

She'd actually be crazy (stupid) enough to actually pull a fake rojo?

I honestly don't understand why asking for a mod kill is against something you would do, if you were a villager. Makes a ton of sense if you are a wolf.

Oh sorry wasn’t trying to rub it in, I’m just trying to reconcile how I feel about it. Because wolfing with you in Pokémon makes me feel like you’d do this but also I’m tempted to agree with your explanation. Idk I’m conflicted.

Rather not directly lead to two village deaths today

Do you not understand how this works? Day opportunities are chances to get wolves. You are wasting one of them. This would allow us to get a second opportunity out of the wasted one. Assuming we would lynch a villager is quite interesting.

So as a heads up, on SDN noobs have been told the "ideal" time to role reveal/ability reveal is ~1 hour before lynch close. Some people straight up refuse to role reveal even when they're obviously going to get lynched and have a village PR like protector (AM). Some are more open with their roles, but generally speaking role reveals have been discouraged for the most part from what I've see, and early role reveals have even been called sketchy.
Click to expand...
I meant to respond to this earlier to say that usually when we talk about this we're referring to ability reveals, not role names, unless role names are obviously tied to an ability

(sorry, rereading)

I understand how it works, thanks. I'm not asking for a modkill with 20 minutes to go. The odds aren't in our favor with that little time to reconvene.

She is messing with people now to cover up a mistake, full stop. She wouldn't do something like that on purpose and risk losing because of it. She likes the lulz, but does not like to lose and would not bank a full team's outcome on an April Fool's joke going as planned.
