SHOTS WW GAME THREAD

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I'm not sure why you're suddenly certain he's village, but I never put people into the POE to silence them. I put them in the POE simply to put them in the POE.
You are mistaken. After paws and genny are flipped, I have to figure out whether april or mel should be flipped. Hopefully you can help me out with that decision.

Then put ppl in your POE and don't ask them if you need to put them in your POE.

I think it's unlikely to be April. I've been able to follow her thoughts better since D2 started. My asking of Mel was more rhetorical.
 
I think at this point that most ppl realize this so I will put it out there. But I believe zenge was protected. Fake claimed some intricate PR to prevent further wolf attacks on himself. And to protect the protector's identity.

If I realize it, then I assume most other ppl realize it. Maybe I'm totally wrong though. But my paranoid tinfoil hat makes me wonder if wolfPaws would ask with the hope of protector saying too much and revealing who they are...
I just don't see how he could have know that someone was protecting him as there is no evidence of PMs in the game so far and I didn't see anything on thread to imply that. He was a vanilliger so wasn't creating PMs himself. Plus the JOAT was already dead so multiple protectors in a game this small seems unlikely
 
so who is in your POE besides mel?
Well, I'm voting for Paws. You and genny are floating around in there too but I understand I tend to wolf read you in general so am trying to factor that into things.

Paws, genny made that post asking why there was a no kill night. SDN frequently has loud actions.
 
You were my least neutral person in a sea of neutrals (credit to whoever said it first). Then the above comment. Then I tried to think of who would NK zenge on N1 when he had just been NK'd the previous game on N1. You popped into my head as someone who wouldn't know that and would do it.

I did iso you earlier and you honestly didn't seem that wolfy to me. So the above is all I have on you. Maybe another iso is due.
I am also happy to admit that I will NK someone twice in a row cuz i don't care either. I don't tend to follow rules about mods or last NK or that stuff cuz i never remember even when I am playing many games. I play for the team I am on. If i think someone should be an NK to save the wolves, I don't care if they just modded. Probably the only exception is if someone has literally been dying over and over and over and I am afraid they might quit WW all together.
 
lame lol, i just was very on the fence about zenge in general, which i posted about in my read list. Why would you discourage me from trying to see if I felt there was an inconsistency there? When you no longer know metas, you actually have to like, you know, try and find inconsistencies.
:shrug: it just seemed stretchy, especially since your whole point was based on him calling out genny for fishing and then deciding to reveal he was attacked. I still don't know what you thought the wolf motive for that progression would have been. With Zenge flipping vanilla village, both your and Bob's reactions to the "reveal" feel even worse to me than they did at the time.

wolf motive for me would be to justify why he never became a night target in the future. If they are scared to try a kill again, of course they don't target zenge even if he becomes universally read as village. does that make sense?
 
He lied about the mechanism of his survival, yes, but I seriously doubt he would have lied about the attack itself
but i can only know that he lied about the role. I don't know if he was even targeted. why are you so sure he was targeted? nothing in the writeup implies protection, a protector already had died, and i agreed with mel that it sounded more like night cancel
After witnessing the death of one of their own so soon, the reality sunk in that getting too out of control can lead to some really bad things. Afterall, day after day of clubbing is a marathon, not a sprint. Thus, the group decided to pack it in early for the evening, hoping that no other misery would befall them if they could manage to behave themselves. It seems like it had worked... at least for now.

I meant the motive for initially questioning genny and then deciding to reveal, which seemed to be what you were latching onto as suspicious/an inconsistency at the time.

Did you cancel the night?

Because I don't think he would have misled village in a way that would impact our ability to understand the game like that. Lying about how he survived is only going to be detrimental to wolves. Lying that he was attacked at all would have broader effects.
 
once again. you asked me what he lied about and I am only giving you an answer to show what i interpreted as a lie in the post
So he lied to the wolves (boo hoo) and now I should assume he's playing against his wincon?

the wolfy motivation there would be to be throwing shade at genny if she was village. so if zenge was wolf, i would have read that as a village point to genny. but he was village so no point cuz it makes sense that maybe he was sketched out by her asking

I think 3 wolves is too many, but 2 wolves isn't enough. So 2 wolves with PR's that is evened out by villager PR's.

I don't think actions are silent in Cubs' games. So I think zenge knew somewhat that he was protected or something.

you have a lot of faith in him apparently that I have no reason to credit to him. people lie in this game for stupid reasons all the time as village
 
Well, I'm voting for Paws. You and genny are floating around in there too but I understand I tend to wolf read you in general so am trying to factor that into things.
Well, I am certain that there is a wolf between genny and paws. So I am comfortable once one of them flip wolf that you will feel somewhat better about me. But feel free to yeet me if I'm wrong bc game will pretty much be over by then anyway.
 
what? that makes no sense, and the bolded seems hella aggro
I don't understand why you're upset he said a lie that only wolves would know was a lie. It didn't harm village at all. More to bat, there zero evidence to suggest he wasn't the night kill attempt or that someone else was the night kill attempt.

I agree with this almost 100%. I feel for the frequently yeeted/NK'd. I had no problem booting zenge first time, but I def would've waited longer before doing N1 kill on same person two games in a row.

I want ppl to play to win when they are wolfing. That seems to be the only way to respectfully play the game.

i don't care about the lie. WZ was asking me questions about my thought process so I was trying to explain it. should i have ignored her questions?
 
you have a lot of faith in him apparently that I have no reason to credit to him. people lie in this game for stupid reasons all the time as village
So then what do you think of the fact that he followed it up with the suggestion that we use who might (or might not) have attacked him n1 as a data point in forming reads?

No, I don't know why you think I'm saying that?

to each their own, and i def have deferred in pack to those who have that preference so it's kind of irrelevant as far as evaluating me. yes i would have killed him if I felt he was the best kill option whether i knew or not but i also would have deferred to another pack member that cared because team moral matters too

Had I attempted a NK on zenge as a wolf, I would not have put out a hairbrained tinfoil that was going to make me look stupid when it would eventually be revealed I was blatantly wrong. I am disappointed my tinfoil was wrong bc I thought it all made sense for a wolfplan.
 
I thought bob brought that up but maybe only because he and i are currently discussing that?
He brought it up initially but Zenge endorsed it in this response to you

I’m still uncomfortable with the question, and worry about it. But at the risk of starting this debate again, it might incline people to lean one way or the other on their reads of people. AM for example who has gotten some heat this game but said she would not have killed me N1 this game before the reveal. She could be lying, it could be WIFOM, but on the whole, it seems believable. So if it helps villagers get a better read on each other, at the cost of not giving away too much to the wolves it seems beneficial overall.
 
you asked why i cared so much about the lie. i don't. i am only talking about it because WZ was probing my thought process on the whole interaction and current;y still is. Why do you think she is asking me about it?
I assume she's probing to get a better read on you.

I'd still just like to know who you're looking at as a pack today.
 
but he lied in that post so how do we know he was even targeted?
What motive would he have to fake claim an attempt on his life if wolves would know it wasn't true??? And that would mean that wolves didn't attack anyone if zenge was not attacked.

This perspective honestly sounds like a wolf perspective trying to confuse village. Or to get a village PR to offer up info that exposes them. (I'm wondering if some of your questions are fishing for village PR's)

And this is why I was continuing to probe

I probably should know this, but how do night cancels happen?
 
and i felt that it was a sufficient response, and since i also thought it was likely he just changed his mind, i then dropped the matter.
Then I don't understand why you're continuing to suggest that he would have lied about the attack :shrug:

Now I've gotta go back to dying under the heavy stress of a final project, this break was already longer than I intended.

I am not crazy about you or WZ but am worried that is clouded by the intensity of the current discussions. I still feel good about April, ok about Mel and bob, and so that leaves genny, but she has also not posted very much which in the past was NAI, just makes it hard to interpret. so my POE is you WZ and genny, with reservations on all three, hence why i haven't voted yet
