Well game is over, everyone can officially reveal everything, unless the mod wants to recant that last statement.
 
Ugh fine, y'all are so tense.

Fight Number 3

images
Emperor Nero had watched many a gladiator in the ring, but one was his favorite above all others. Nero bestowed upon him lands, wealth, slaves, and other riches that gladiators only dreamed of. It is said that this gladiator's sense of humor is what captured Nero's respect and favor. To face death every day of your life, and still retain a sense of whimsy was a trait her valued. Unfortunately, not many others appreciated that same quality on the battlefield. Today this gladiator decided to play a trick on his fellow warriors, and it was not received well.

Well cool to know that Nero's in the game. Only useful thing to come out of today thanks to Wildzoo.
 
~Reminder, SDN is down for maintenance tomorrow morning. Early action submissions will result in early night close. I'm not making promises about lynch close/write-up timings for tomorrow if there is no early close~
 
Welcome to the club, I was under fire for the last part of the day because a villager did an idiot move to implicate me who they believed to strongly be a villager, why are you stressed?

I just feel a bandwagon coming.
 
But now I feel compelled to go spend time compiling my reads and putting them on the thread, because that very village stunt is probably going to get me killed

If you are going to close tonight, can you check here first and see if anyone has anything to say before, given all of the ****ery wildzoo caused?
 
I need to think things through properly since there are some important things i'm missing from sloppy reading. Also doesn't help that my brain's already fried today.

Contingency unlynch AM

I won't close unless I have all night actions and will give a 15 minute heads up before I call night close
 
You know what, I am too tired to give full explanations for these right now, but here's a list at least.

Roughly descending order of village --> wolf

Me (if you don't know this by now then I can't help you)
Nav
AM
Lawper
Barks
Stagg
Paws
Emlady
Jboo
Dolphin
Doggo
Ms Pro
Cubs
Sporty

I'm notoriously bad at reading Paws, Jboo, and Stagg, so take those with a grain of salt, and I might recommend policy lynching Paws and Stagg in that order if a wolf doesn't turn up in the next day or so. Don't let either one of them live until end game.

And for anyone who is curious, I am wiping the last 3 hours out, so those are my reads as of about 7:30 this evening.
 
What’s really annoying is likely me or pippy will be dead in the morning since wildzoo forced my hand to imply I had a role ability, and pippy was forced to demonstrate who she is since no one else was reading between the lines, and wildzoo, in her last wonderful act of that specacle, decided going for pippy was the best strategy. Also layering on how villager I was before death certainly helped with my hopes of staying alive another day.

Personally, I want to play out tonight as if it was a day cycle, but people can simply claim they aren’t here, actually aren’t here, or are too tired to be active, once again, thanks to a wasted day.

I would really push cubs to reveal role name. I would push especially hard on sports, since they “don’t make mistakes.” I also personally would not put bark as Much villager as everyone else has them. I think doggie is simply a dog with a bone (pun intended), and they read villager just stuck on me, but could just be really nooby wolf.

I do believe AM started this game as village, but am obviously not 100% on this by any means.


Dolphin is seeming erratic but I have them slightly more village then wolf, same with the other noob emlady. We now also no there were NO wolves on mutts on day one, so focus on those that voted NOT ziggy, as once again, they wouldn’t have thrown all 3-5 of themselves on that Lynch.
 
Oh last words of wisdom from me before a reread, be careful with Lawper. They are in appeasement mode right now “I am going to vote AM because I guess my conclusion went that way” to “I guess I won’t vote that way as it puts suspicion on me”. It’s coming across too much as trying to gain favor, not a fan of it. May interpret differently on reread.
 
I might recommend policy lynching

:sendoff:

As much as this flatters me policy lynches are crap. Weak sauce Pip.

I agree with most of what you said, but I find this part interesting especially sine NO ONE who voted for Ziggy is dead yet. So if there were truly no wolves on Mutts, I'd find it just as surprising that all the wolves stayed off that lynch. Since you think it's more prudent to focus on those off of Ziggy, who is your pack from those not voting Ziggy? Who on Ziggy's vote is in your the pack?

Don't think Lawper is a wolf, just my instinct on that one but I think I'd focus on other targets first

I construct my packs based off of other people in the pack and how those interactions went. Ummmm, I can try and get you a list of combos tonight after a read through but I am likely going to fall asleep before being able to compile it. If I am alive in the morning, I will 100% get it done.

Let's pretend Cubs flips wolf. Who are his packmates?
 
Contingeny Lynch Cubz

Because after an iso I'm feeling worse about him and flip would provide some good info. Would also still be alright with an EM flip and also Sporty or Jboo. Want to iso Lawpy and Dolphin later in particular.
 
~I have all night actions and will close early, unless I hear otherwise. Y'all have 30 mins to voice dissent over this in your role PM's, or change night actions~

Staggikarp, not you too??

I even thought of you when I took these pictures of elk today... they’re not as cool as Okapis of course but.. 8125C11C-AFF1-4912-9659-E81B7D8A763B.jpeg
 
Cubs, since you are here anyway, would you be up for discussing just role name. The fact that you left once support for just a role name picked up has definitely created even more interest around you
