Are wolf brags that common on here?

Yes, the more elaborate ones involve videos (which haven't been done in a while).

Jokes on you, my account only holds
Monopoly money, now if you had went with under my mattress, completely different story

Hmmmm, I'm not inclined to believe this considering you seemed to be enticing people to😉 a three-way earlier

 

[PippyPony]

With that said, pippy not creating a tie on day 1 makes me feel a bit better about them.

I'm flattered, but...why exactly?

If it were me, I would potentially feel worse about me in light of that revelation

2 for 1 villager special as a possibility (given that mechanics for ties were unknown), with the guise of proving more information points.

Hmm, ok.

Not voting yet: Dolphin and Pippy

Check ya votes or forever hold your peace

Based off of this, I want to do more searching into those that didn’t vote for the two main candidates. Would have been silly for the wolves to pile on the two candidates, I feel like searching outside of it may be more fruitful.

Who took over for Msp?

I feel like maybe 2 wolves (1 in a villager favored game) between barks, msp, paws, stagg, and sporty.

Melchizedek’s game’s in the past, have they tended to be more villager heavy or wolf heavy? What are typical ratios they work with?

 

[Doggo Labs]

Who took over for Msp?

Msp or Mpm?? Two different people. Lawpy is a sub for mpm

 

[WildZoo]

Also, has anyone else noticed all of the pippy and wildzoo posts tend to be clustered with one another? Many times they involved ninja comments, or similar concepts within their posts. People seem to view them as a more experienced group, so I don’t think they would be wolves conferring in pm and then posting here at the same time (a noob wolf mistake) just find it an interesting musing for now.

This tickles me
I don't think we've really been on the same wavelength or anything here though, that I've noticed anyway

 

[Barkley13]

Who took over for Msp?

MsP is still here, Lawper subbed in for mpm

 

[WildZoo]

Melchizedek’s game’s in the past, have they tended to be more villager heavy or wolf heavy? What are typical ratios they work with?

I don't know if I have a good example off the top of my head for cheezit's games...we ran WWedding together but that was kind of a non-standard wolf pack setup.

Our site meta tends to be around 20% non-village though

 

[Doggo Labs]

MsP is still here, Lawper subbed in for mpm

I hear and echo here

 

[Navilly]

Okay who is msp then?

 

[PippyPony]

and no one elses?

No, just yours especially because I don't think I have heard them yet

 

[WildZoo]

Okay who is msp then?

@Ms Procrastinator

 

[PippyPony]

@Animal Midwife got any sense of where you might be voting tomorrow?

[Navilly]

@Animal Midwife got any sense of where you might be voting tomorrow?

Do you still stand by reviving SAR over a possible seer that could die in the coming days? I mean if their wolf hunting is that wonderful than sure, it just came off as a bit of a weird request early in the day.

I feel like some of these have to be made up, some of them are longer than the actual name.

They're...all made up. That's what nicknames are, silly.

You missed all of my nicknames, and I will be referring to Navilly as Navi thank you very much.

Yeah, I always prefer that people don't sit on a rez for multiple reasons

 

[jaboo]

@cubsrule4e and @johnnaboo I look forward to your reads tomorrow

Prepare to be disappointed.

I’ll do what I can but I gots a full schedule of lectures, free lunch, and a field trip to play with some sheep tomorrow

I motion to have Dolphino added to the nicknames list

 

[WildZoo]

You missed all of my nicknames, and I will be referring to Navilly as Navi thank you very much.

I like Nilly myself
Wait
Maybe I'll just call him Nelly lol

 

[PippyPony]

Pipperoncini and Pipsy got left off of my list of nicknames

 

[WildZoo]

I motion to have Dolphino added to the nicknames list

Seconded

Any discussion?

 

[Stagg737]

Why? I feel like the bolded gets into some serious wifom, and I'd be surprised if there wasn't a wolf or two on either of the leaders.

NO

Oh since we’re all complaining about this, I’m called hobo sometimes bc autocorrect

 

[Barkley13]

I've also seen dolphin called dolph

 

[cubsrule4e]

No, just yours especially because I don't think I have heard them yet

Post 845 to start. What else would you like to know?

 

[Navilly]

So in all seriousness, since I have seen jokes and musings about this, is research into mechanics and lore acceptable or unacceptable in this game? Not sure if it’s worth me doing some research on what gladiators may be more likely to be wolves instead of villagers.

 

[Stagg737]

I like Nilly myself
Wait
Maybe I'll just call him Nelly lol

Yea, but neither of those pay homage to the greatest video game series ever. I like Nelly though, SDN could use some Country Grammar.

 

[jaboo]

Hey lawp jk you da best k bai

 

[Lawpy]

I'll provide a more complete nickname list later (probably in a separate thread)

The current one should be good enough ☕

 

[cubsrule4e]

Ziggy and Pippy must now fight to the death for rights to the title of most nicknames

 

[Lawpy]

Hey lawp jk you da best k bai

 

[jaboo]

So in all seriousness, since I have seen jokes and musings about this, is research into mechanics and lore acceptable or unacceptable in this game? Not sure if it’s worth me doing some research on what gladiators may be more likely to be wolves instead of villagers.

Given that the precursor title to this game was that Mel created a semi-balanced, somewhat thought out game to appease the WW addicts, you might not wanna go down that road. Mechanics discussions are hotly debated here

 

[Navilly]

Why? I feel like the bolded gets into some serious wifom, and I'd be surprised if there wasn't a wolf or two on either of the leaders.

If there was a wolf or two on the leaders, that would leave 1-2 wolves on the non leaders, which was my argument. So you aren’t contradicting me

 

[Stagg737]

So in all seriousness, since I have seen jokes and musings about this, is research into mechanics and lore acceptable or unacceptable in this game? Not sure if it’s worth me doing some research on what gladiators may be more likely to be wolves instead of villagers.

Definitely acceptable, but the utility of it varies from game to game. The last game (Ireland) was heavy on the mythology and you could gain insight from that. In other games there isn't no connection at all. I'm not feeling it's worth it this game, but I could totally be wrong too.

 

[jaboo]

Meaning some find it helpful, others hate it (namely AM)

Ah a Zelda fan I see

 

[Navilly]

So it may be discouraged but now disallowed then?

For all I know the names could all be made up and the roles don’t matter, but no harm in checking around some lore if it’s not disallowed

 

[WildZoo]

I fix

1. Animal Midwife = AM
2. Barkley13 = Barks, Barkbark, Barky
3. mypetmoose = mpm, petmoosy; Lawper = Lawp, Lawpy, Lamprey, Lamp
4. dolphin106258 = dolphin, dolphino, dolph
5. ziggyandjazzy = Ziggy, zigjazzy, zigjaz, zigzag, zigzagoon, ZJ, ziggyjazzy, jazziggy
6. emlady09 = Emmy, em
7. WildZoo = WZ, Dubz, Dubzy, wubz, subs, doobs, and the occasional Zoo
8. Dinashadow = Dina, dino
9. Ms Procrastinator = MsPro, MsP, Pro
10. johnnaboo = jboo, jbooze, jboozy, jbizzle, jboozed, jboobs, hobo
11. Doggo Labs = Doggo, Doggy
12. muttmanager = mutt, mutts, mutty
13. SARdoghandler = SAR, Sardine, Sardines

18. StayingPositive2017 = Paws, Pawsy

20. Navilly = Nav, Navy, Navi, Na'Vi, Nelly
21. Melchizedek = Mel, Cheezit, Cheezy, Cheezy D, Mel's Cheezits, Cheeeez

 

[WildZoo]

So it may be discouraged but now disallowed then?

For all I know the names could all be made up and the roles don’t matter, but no harm in checking around some lore if it’s not disallowed

Not disallowed

 

[Lawpy]

So far finding AM, Pippy, genny, Stagg, Dina and jboozy to be okay from what I'm reading. Didn't find their posts to be damning from what I'm seeing. Still reading through some things right now.

 

[jaboo]

Quick reads before I pass out. If someone is not included it’s either because I haven’t really given them much thought or I’m too tipsy/sleepy

Wolfy: dubz, cubs
Slightly wolfy: pips, paws, dolph
Neutral: em, nav, lawpy
Village: AM, genny

 

[jaboo]

10. johnnaboo = jboo, jbooze, jboozy, jbizzle, jboozed, jboobs, hobo

Oh yea forgot about that one

 

[PippyPony]

So it may be discouraged but now disallowed then?

For all I know the names could all be made up and the roles don’t matter, but no harm in checking around some lore if it’s not disallowed

I would also argue that it's not discouraged, but that may just be my wishful thinking
