Does his comment about his icon still bother you?

He never replied to me.

Good grief, how stupid do you think I would have to be to do this as a wolf?

Gloves are off, wolves pissed me off last night, so expect some grumpy Pip today and you better believe I'm going to be voting someone off the island tonight.

What do you mean by the bold above??? Who are you thinking are the wolves in reference to the above?

I read it more as "hey guys, look how hard I'm villaging right now!"

Well, I guess I was just be blantently obvious, which I have done in the past and oh guess what have actually been village.

Very few.

don't remember why i quoted this...??

Unlynch Paws

Lynch emlady


Have a pretty strong village read on barkbarks after just reading through the thread and like how she is pushing emlady, and that comment from emlady just made my eyebrows hit the ceiling.

What gave you strong village reads on BARKS, I certainly haven't given how hard she went on me with little to go off of.


Tone here feels slightly coached. Not loving the last bit because it reminds me some of the methods I used to fly low in vet clinic as a noob wolf

#####lynch em#####

Sorry if you’re Village; I hate lynching noob villagers early.

Coached?? WTH would be coaching me? **** if I must have missed the sign ups for a coach, because it is just me, myself, and I over here! :clap:

Not really sure I've seen to much of an analysis... Paws has one on em which I think is reasonable

Genny I would like to hear more on why you are voting to lynch Stagg? Also trying to find any analysis you have on anyone else, but I cont seem to find them.

her reasoning that I was fishing and that instantly led a charge against me??? Wow.

Tugging at feelings, “oh thank you so much for explaining your post/point/the thing I clearly misunderstood not on purpose.”

Sorry not sorry, I'm a noob, trying my best to learn over here.

I have thoughts, but I'll let the people you tagged respond first.

What are you thoughts...I'm curious?

Did em ever answer this?

No, because he never answered me.


See above.


What feels???

So there's a lot I noticed and can post on later, but this is what stuck out to me and things that I directly want to address.

Again, wat? I was NOT insistent on voting for Sporty and said multiple times I'd move if I had a reason to or if I felt she was at risk for getting lynched without good reason. Idk if you're misreading or intentionally throwing shade, but you're moving out of my village reads today...

Barks pointed out a lot of what I've seen so far (long post yesterday that didn't actually contribute that much, the post from the quote above seeming off, etc). Something I'd like to add though is regarding the bolded. I found it really odd that she's asking if anything happened on thread as if she didn't know anything had happened at all and literally her first example is "someone got watched" which is the only thing that was explicitly stated on thread. I find this especially strange since I feel like we usually say things like "tracked" or "seered" and use the phrase "watched" less frequently. It feels like someone fed her information for her to ask about to make her participation seem more meaningful.

I also find it interesting that Navi seems to have been in the camp of her being sketchy then immediately thought it seemed less sketchy as soon as they found out EM is more of a noob. Seems like a question that could have knowingly been set up to help them both gain village cred.

Barks pointed out a lot?? I've post minimal on here since we've started. THe first long post I was trying to go after ziggy, because it seemed like the only lead on D1, especially when I don't know much of anyone's metas.
I was asking about actions because maybe it could have lead us somewhere to get more concrete evidence for who is actually village...YES I get this looks sketch AF now, my bad. I feel like I've seen it discussed in past games. and yes my example of someone getting watched was because didn't someone mention that in this game??? And I don't know all the game mechanics, which is why I was lacking in examples and terminology. If someone has an annex full of game terms and lingo feel free to pass it my way. Would love to know wth is going on most of the time with mechanics. Again, (for those that didn't hear me in the back) NO ONE IS FEEDING ME INFO. If any of my analysis/lack thereof, was meaningful it came from non other than myself! Thanks.

Pippy v AM nonsense since I last posted feels w/v but I don’t know who is which. I also historically am not good at reading either of them so I’m not putting much weight in that evaluation right now.

Nav seems Village right now. Mutts seems Village as I stated previously. Still voting for em because she feels wolfy.

:shrug:

Again how do I feel wolfy other than my slip up of apparently asking a too obvious/stupid question regarding actions used in the night cycle.

No, I'm not, are you intentionally missing my point? I said it's BS that they expect us to try and accommodate them with a single wolf-hunting strategy then say no one else is allowed to do the same thing for them. Do you not see the problem with that? You also know how much I hate using metas to wolf-hunt, which is just adding to my salt with this subject.
I'm not misunderstanding. I just think your point is not related to the game, and tbh, I think the two of you sound a little whiny and cliquey, and I don't want to drive new players away from this site when they clearly are invested in playing.
 
Hey I am trying to give you time to respond to questions and things but when I read the thread your tone from last night to today felt distinctly different. Sorry if you don’t agree.


Nav is too but I don’t see you mentioning that?
Bottom question is for you, it was in reference to you saying Paws was bringing up old games but so is Nav? But you didn’t seem to be bothered by it. Basically asking for thought/comment on it. @Doggo Labs

Yeah I'm bothered by it. Earlier I had wrote that he was declining on my wolfie list, he's still on it, I haven't figured out what questions to ask him yet. I'll do that tomorrow.
 
After a reread I find myself somewhat relating to some of jboos thoughts, and dubz is standing out to me. Not sure if it was the dolphin interaction, her significant increase in activity this game, or something I cant really pin down yet.

I've already stated I'm in agreement with sporty and dont like the mutts lynch. However, I'm not seeing the em lynch either. Comments thrown around about her possibly fishing and this or that, but as a noob myself thats how Im viewing it. Also think if she was a wolf, shed be more careful in what/how shes saying things on thread at risk of doing something incriminating to herself or another wolf.

Lynch WZ because i dont like either leading candidate, and she is standing out to me right now.
"Significant increase in activity" is just my normal play when I have access to the internet all day
 
Can we legitimately stop with the self preservation votes being an hour and 20 minutes away and vote for who we actually want to vote for. There is still a lot of time for things to change, but what discourages change is when candidates falsely look elevated compared to others

there is only 17 min left to lynch closes.
 
They all seemed to jump on me after one slip up of the question I asked regarding actions used in the nught cycle. There is no other reason, I feel, they have to lynch me....AND it all took full steam when asked, aggressively, why it mattered to me.
This is the only thing the feel like makes me wolfy
I was already voting for you before you said that.

Did I say that was the only reason why I was voting for you?

I typically don't vote for someone based on a single comment.

Lynch emlady

Started getting feels yesterday when she came on, posted one post saying she was here and asking what people wanted, and then disappearing again. Her two long posts don’t say much about her reads and seem to be asking questions, bringing up things that have already been addressed, or just commenting on things that have happened without saying thoughts on it.

What feels?? I went after zig because her aggressive behavior, which is normal per everyone. I said hello just to let y'all know I was on since the last two games I only ever came on at night.

Yes. Speaking of your description of your availability and the expectation setting you did around when you would be on the thread, that struck me as rather noob wolfy.
 
No, her behavior today is sketch AF. She's trying real hard to make me look wolf in her eyes, but it's false and misleading to others.

You're saying she's sketchy though because she's voting for you and explaining why. People obviously agree with her reasoning if they are also voting for you.
 
I'm not misunderstanding. I just think your point is not related to the game, and tbh, I think the two of you sound a little whiny and cliquey, and I don't want to drive new players away from this site when they clearly are invested in playing.

Then we're interpreting it differently. I'd like to hear some reads from @Navilly that aren't having to do with meta (if I missed them, sorry, but a bried recap is appreciated). They've obviously played before, and a lot of their reads are coming from "I went and looked as when X wolfed, and this seems in/consistent with then" and attempting to use meta to gain reads, but is also saying they don't know metas so we should cut them slack. Says we should look at things from in this game to hunt for wolves, but had that whole list of wolves being the first person to comment/vote and using that as reasoning. It all just feels very off. Sounds like trying to play the noob card as a casual excuse.

I don't want to drive noobs away either. Like I said though, they seem to be more experienced than a typically noob and I'm less willing to handle them with kid gloves because of that.

They all seemed to jump on me after one slip up of the question I asked regarding actions used in the nught cycle. There is no other reason, I feel, they have to lynch me....AND it all took full steam when asked, aggressively, why it mattered to me.
This is the only thing the feel like makes me wolfy

I had sketchy feels for you yesterday after your long post. It seemed like a lot of over-explanation/over-justification of your vote and overall seemed to be an attempt to contribute more than you actually were. Your other posts made me feel worse which is why my vote is where it's at. Other than the fact that I'm voting for you why do you think I'm sketchy? Same question about Sporty.

I will go one step further, I will be defending this tie to the best of my ability, countering last second votes to maintain it. While I don’t think either are particularly wolfy, gives some interesting information lynching them both, especially if one or more flips canine
 
Fair, just saying it seems like a lot more than in the first few games i played.
Definitely more than last game, I'll give you that (I was away from phone/computer all day most days), but I don't think this is any more than Skiing and in Horses I was sick for two days and died early :shrug:

Ask anyone who has played with me ever. This is like...moderate dubz activity level. I shouldn't be here but I am because it's more fun than studying.

How is a noob village or noob wolf SUPPOSED to act???
is there a manual everyone gets on day 1 that says...you should act this way....analyze that way. :wtf:

Peopl got bothered when I would only post at night last two games so I was informing everyone that I work day and can't be glued to my phone. So I tried to be on today due to the weekend.

Which one would you rather see flip? Just a heads up, ties on this site don't always end up the same and the mechanics vary. Sometimes both die, sometimes one of them, sometimes neither. Sometimes the person who created the tie dies. Since there was no explanation in the initial write-up, we don't yet know the mechanics of what would happen.

I mean, did you even read the manual the Melchizedek sent with the role?

“What do I do?!: How to be a noob villager in the age of information” by Melchizedek

There isn't, and I could certainly be wrong about your motivations behind posting that. In the context of your other posts, it struck me as preemptively apologetic and as trying to reassure people about any potential change in your play style, which is something wolves feel compelled to do sometimes.

Would rather see Mutts, provides a lot of information on the day 1 Lynch which becomes very valuable if they are a wolf. Em provides minor information, and the reason for voting feels more like a noob making a noob mistake, not a noob wolf making a noob wolf mistake (not excluding that she is a wolf, more saying she would make the mistake regardless of affiliation)
 
Am I allowed to respond to this while Lynch is closed?
Yes
The rules didn't say no strategy posts between close and writeup this time so I think you're ok
:nod:
Took it out for this game since solo-modding is not conducive to quick turn arounds and not fair to cut off discussion while I'm doing modly things.
