okay, I'm only at p.28 but I wanted to give some update reads - this could evolve as time goes on

1. @potentialsheltervet - upon reread, I'm not feeling great about PSV. She has seemed a little absent lately too..
3. @alleycat03 - weird that as a "bodyguard" type role she was attacked and didn't die, but mechanics
7. @WildZoo - village
7.7 @Stagg737 - unsure
8. @SARdoghandler - there are 2 reasons I haven't looked at SAR: 1. she's my mother and 2. dubz soul read her village. Are you playing us?
12. @JaggedJimmyJay - I feel like JJJ has provided a lot of good and thorough* (edited to fix typo b/c it bothered me) analysis, I want to keep him as village
13. @Barkley13 - something about barky is off, but if she was a wolf how/why would she jail me, none of it makes sense - I'm backing off because it's too confusing
17. @Lawpy - I feel fine about lawpy, it would be silly if the whole pack voted for me for mayor... (although it wasn't lawpy that voted, but the same role)
18. @genny - unsure still

POE: PSV>alley>stagg>genny>SAR>barky>lawpy>JJJ>dubz

yeet PSV
Could you please explain the positions of SAR and Barky in your order there given what you wrote?

Genny VCA:

D1: Enjoying a train ride
D2: Voted PSV and sat there to make it PSV 2, Santy 4, Alley 5
D3: Ended the day 3/7 on Nate.

Continuing the trend that there is a dearth of information on Genny which is not solely d/t her late arrival. Analysis is that we need more info to assess Genny and iso would probably be helpful. Big ol' ?????
 
I should probably provide a proper ISO review of genny. I have resisted, since I think it might be time-consuming with the xenforo search thingy, and I am much more fond of performing analysis with a clear purpose beyond "I have no read, need get read, halp"

But one has to do what one has to do. I will see if it's feasible.

Godspeed. At least you're not reading publications about vague science whatever from 1975 or whatever so your dissertation document is well cited or whatever.
Ehehe the organism that most of my dissertation is about wasn't discovered until 2013 😎

I placed both in the middle, honestly they are interchangeable.
I want to believe SAR is village
Barky, I’m just lost with my read on her and think there are options I’d rather pursue
 
Correct, but now we're back on each other. But not that way.
Yeah that doesn't mean too much to me when you're the two viable wagons.

I do see you did some alley pushing way back before the bodyguard reveal though I'm not entirely sure what to think of that given that the bodyguard reveal was coming so.

I will think on it further. I don't remember her talking about you much but I will look.

I'm pretty sure she did the whole "PSV is controlling threadstate" business was before her claim, too
 
Sometimes the bright light of the day was a little too blinding for a sewer monstergoose like himself, and he found himself feeling a little disoriented, stumbling toward the people he recognized and thought were his friends.
WAIT
 
Miranda VCA:

D1: Voted Santy early in a somewhat retaliatory manner. Vis had 2 votes and Zenge, Stagg, Miranda, Mighty, and Santy had 1. Later, unvotes Santy to make count Vis 4, Mighty 3, Lucy 3. Then 45 minutes later she votes for Lucy 15 minutes after Alley did to make the count Vis 4, Mighty 3, Lucy 5. 2 hours before close, switches her vote to Mighty where she stayed until close to make count Vis 4, Mighty 6, Lucy 3. Shortly after that Dubz unvoted Mighty and Lawpy voted Mighty.

D2: Voted Alley to make it Alley 4, Santy 4, PSV 1. Later moved voted to Santy to make it Santy 9, Alley 1, PSV 2. Interesting to note that Miranda and Lawpy switched their vote to follow each other within an hour of both of these votes.

D3: Miranda ended up 2/3 on Barks with PSV and Clem.

This VCA looks pretty bad. The initial retaliatory vote on Santy can be nooby WIFOM, but even disregarding that this does not look good. She was on the Lucy counterwagon with both Lawpy and Alley which actually put Lucy in the lead and moved to Mighty with Lawpy when the Lucy wagon was dying. I could see her parking her vote there to not attract more negative attention as a noob wolf and gain some village cred. On D2, she did create a tie on Alley, but did eventually switch to Santy with Lawpy. D3 is meh.

I could definitely see this being the voting patter of a noob wolf who was unsure what to do having 2 packmates as leading wagons pretty early into D1. There's a lot of mirroring with Lawpy as well, which I didn't notice before. Based on votes, I also think it's unlikely but not impossible for her to be in a pack with Alley. If Alley flips village, Miranda would move up on my POE.

Analysis based on VCA is wolf lean.
 
Rereading writeup from samac/Zenge death

Seems like wolves used iridium to make a bomb to kill samac (this may have been obvious to others who have played the game but I just googled). The whispered "Everything" is spooky but idk what it means.

There's that whole paragraph about assumptions but I have no idea what it's referring to so just incites nameless panic.

I think I've discovered why everyone thinks I'm such an enigma. No one is actually reading my posts lol:

Write up sounded like it was talking about using iridium to make the bomb that killed Samac. Which could just be mod flair, or could refer to 2 wolves. I’m not sure I should even have brought it up, given that we all seem to be assuming 2 wolves left anyway.

Ah you posted that while I was rereading and responding to pings, so I missed it.

Particularly tend to miss posts that happen while I'm typing because they don't tend to show up on mobile.
 
My current reads/POE from most wolfy to village based on VCA:

POE: Alley/Miranda>>PSV

Barks- neutral to slight village lean
SAR- village lean

Genny ????

Based solely on VCA I think Miranda actually looks worse than Alley. However, there are other arguments that I think warrant leaving my vote on Alley for now. In terms of packs, I think it's unlikely that Miranda and PSV are in the same pack. They were both on Lucy, but ended up on different wolves at the end of D1. A bit WIFOM-Y, but seems pretty risky for wolves to bus different wolves who are both leading wagons on D1. I think this might give PSV a little less wolfiness based on VCA as she's the only one of the people still alive who started on the Lucy wagon that didn't either sit there or move to Mighty.

I will continue to update this as I continue VCA.
