This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Sorry just had to point out another person making the point Skimble and I were trying to make earlier (underlined).

Depending on how this flip goes and the night, I think I want to start looking at some of our quieter people (which probably includes me to some extent but still) - ny, glam, MJ, genny, etc.
I think I missed your posts and skimble's

Was it the exact same thought?
 
END DAY 3

The Bridge of Eldin: a vacation destination. Or something. The sun rises and sets right behind the bridge every day, casting a perfect backdrop for photographs. Of course, the glare also made for horrific vision, and most fighters spent the day shielding their eyes from the sun as they sparred with opponents single-handedly.

As is tradition, at the end of the evening, the center of the bridge was blown up for someone to deal with later. What else are you supposed to do to keep Hyrulean heroes busy?

All of our fighters had to leap over the chasm to make their way home, and unfortunately, one of them didn't quite make it. Mewtwo made the jump, but a few other fighters decided to use his shoulders as a springboard in the middle of his flight. Try as he did to recover, the shove was too much, and he tumbled into the ravine below.

Dead is @johnnaboo, Mewtwo, a villager who could PM with one person each day cycle.

Also, @Animal Midwife why were you getting on kcough and Skim for not wanting to vote with people they were suspicious of? Wasn't that why you didn't like the jboo vote yesterday?

It was the first suspect voting the the second suspect being problematic that didn't make sense to me. I didn't suspect jboo so that's why I didn't like the jboo vote yesterday.
 
@Skimble have you been PMing with moose?
Nope. I don’t think that was even possible until boo died, right? I got a pm from boo d1, replied, and she never replied back. Other than that, I’ve only pm’d mods (occasionally while well hydrated.)
As an aside, there is absolutely zero guarantee that a PM role would be village. That role is equally split between wolf and village (if anything, might lean slightly more wolf based on the games I've played), and has equal utility as both affiliations. Shouldn't clear or condemn anyone.
Depends a lot on the mod. Some really prefer it to be a village ability, others like it to be wolf. I feel like it’s more often village though.

Jboo was on fhe other side. Moose is above you.
 
Don't understand what you were saying in that post. Coffee was too slow on what? And ties don't exist in what scenario?

Too slow to tie up the votes and it wouldn't have been possible anyway.
 
There was never a tie. It was 7-6 PBC-jboo before the switch.
Eh? Not according to le tally. Coffee switched from me, so before she switched it was 6-6
Day 3 Lynch Tally FINAL:
Stagg (1) - DVMD
WZ (2) - allieh, Pippy
Glamm (1) - WZ
Moose (2) - RL-KB, Jimble
DVMD ()
Bryndy (2) - AM, Stagg
jboo (7) - kcough, dolph, Moose, PBC, MJ, LoTF, Coffee?
SAR (1) - nyan
PBC (6) - Mel, SAR, bryndi, MA, genny, jboo
NY (1) - BBC
23/26

Check your votes!
 
I know I'm probably missing things, but how is there so much posting and so little to pick out? As best as I can tell from the day,

-Moose attracted suspicion for not following up on feels when she should have a spreadsheet to do so
-Vaguely re-started suspicions on WZ and jboo, not much progression on either front
-Genny defused Moose lynch so people switched off to jboo
-Some people didn't like the jboo vote either, so consolidated on PBC as a second choice.

There was a lot of ability talking today, which I'm not paying much attention to. Yes, PMing can be wolf or village, and silencing can be wolf or village - I put a village silencer in my game. It's more relevant to discuss if the silencer is a wolf because they stopped BBC from contributing when she said she'd have time, which seems like a valid point. Unfortunately, I''m not sure how far we can pursue that - it doesn't look like anyone was silenced today, and we have 3 different post restrictions on 2 people to sort through instead.

I'll admit, I didn't work extra hard to try and finish analysis before lynch because I was kinda suspicious of jboo yesterday. Out of the people today

-Moose's responses and unwillingness to lynch would probably have me moving to lynch her. I can't give you credit for having a spreadsheet and then not see you act like you have it.
-Would have waffled off after genny said moose was a bad idea, probably onto jboo for prior day suspicions.

@WildZoo, about Day 1 - Mixy's defensiveness day 1 reminded me of her attitude in WWhisk, where my wolf pack kept her alive because we thought we might be able to pressure her into displaying it and make her a lynch target. I felt strongly enough about her being a villager to want to try and present a viable alternative to her lynch. My top suspicions weren't lynch candidates, and rarely anything good happens from trying to start a new lynch target 40min before lynch closes. Voting for Coffee was an attempt to get Mixy off of lynch and to learn more about the lynch by asking the source. You're right that it's a vote I didn't necessarily believe in, but I didn't have strong feels for Coffee as a villager like I did for Mixy. The turnaround was deciding who in that first half-day seemed most suspicious (I think there was only a page and a half before I made the comment about one of the wolves already shaping the vote).

As for current reads - Pippy/Mixy/Cray getting passes obvs. Fern has moved up to villager given that the silencing was wolfy, but would move into far wolf territory if it looks like we don't have a silencer. Moose and Genny tentatively getting passes because that level of vouch seems odd for a wolf-wolf interaction. Moose gets more village cred than Genny because I think it'd be difficult for a wolf to provide the level of proof Genny would need to switch, but Genny still gets some because I don't think a wolf would stick their neck out for a villager like that unless the villager knew the wolf could and could blow their cover before being lynched. Coffee moves up villager rankings with getting attacked, but am very surprised there aren't more details about that. @CoffeeQuestionMark, is there anything you can say about the attack without spoiling the protector ability text?

PBC is someone that I want to be villager. DVMD, WZ, and AM are in same boat - I see them posting and trying to solve the game.

As for wolves - I could see Paws as one with the reliance on outside factors to push people ("I've seen that you're on the thread", etc). Those kind of things are persuasive enough to get people lynched without taking the same kind of work as regular reads. I know that I followed the one about bryndi yesterday, but I could talk to her to try and work that story out, and I'm not on here as much. Paws has been on here enough that I'm a little surprised they're focusing on that. Other suspects are allieh and ny for being quieter. I think I saw Skimble post more today, so I'm a little less worried about her. Sure, pot/kettle on the last reads. But, frankly, I haven't been a good villager today, and probably won't be a good villager tomorrow either.

contingency lynch Paws

so at least I get a vote in tomorrow. Would prefer to vote on the wolf against whom I have something more than "quiet"

Alright, out for the night. Wonder how many pages got written while I was working on this?

EDIT: Less than one! The pace is slowing!

I can say that it was definitely different than the message Skimble got N1
 
Just did a little re-reading. Couple questions:

@Animal Midwife , are you chaos? I'm legit asking. You literally bounced all over the freaking roster and have continually voted in opposite directions of who you were questioning.

@allieh8607 , where are you and why didn't you recognize what a commuter role was? You've been playing for like...a while, and I feel like you should know that -- so much so that I didn't even really realize it was you who I responded to with an explanation. On re-read that looks like tossing suspicion without placing a vote.

Why did people clear @dolphin106258 ? Was it just that one comment by Coop? If so, that's kinda weak.

All that said, @Mad Jack and @nyanko I'm moving my vote towards you soon if I don't have compelling reasons not to.

My schedule drastically opens up tomorrow so I will be much more present on thread. I really don't think I've played in a game since my hiatus that has had a commuter role. And before my hiatus that role was definitely not a thing.
 
I mean usually you have some ... discernable pattern. This game you just seem to be vascillating wildly between targets.

Well, I'm not sure what to tell you because I think I'm being pretty consistent.
 
Thoughts on her interactions with coop? That's what moved her further down my list
I know you're not asking me, but I just re-read and I don't think those interactions clear anyone of anything. The PBC/Coop back and forth could definitely have been fabricated, as could have AM's back and forth with Coop. And actually, AM moving off of an early vote for Coop and then questioning her later on before totally, inexplicably dropping it again was pretty weird in retrospect.
 
Well, now you are voting for the same person two days in a row, yes. That's not what I meant. But want to explain where that vote is coming from?

bryndi has been lurking. Over 50% of her discussion was about mechanics and very little of her own opinions. She voted for someone who wasn't in her POE today.

I mean, why should I question someone who's dead?
