Again? I think? I'm not sure what your current impression is?
I think I'm reasonably convinced Dubz is village now, but I also think I said that at some point.

That's what I was looking for, ty. I've been village reading her but so cautiously.

 

[Truenamer]

yeah, there were several really good village-sounding posts by @kdswg today, very impressed.

Honestly I'm still trying to understand how y'all picked her out of the crowd, she seemed so... normal?

 

[SportPonies]

I'm more jarred that so many noob wolves are playing such convincing tone (@kdswg @potentialsheltervet). Dana was easy.

@Dana_May_B don't angry react me! I'm saying it was easy for me to tell you were village. That's a good thing!
It means you're less likely to end up in a three day long mexican standoff like me lol

Spoiler: Quotes

This post strikes me as wolfy. Walks the sus right up to the edge but allows someone else to be the one to push them off. (I have trouble hedging or seeing it both ways as well)

Playing different in this case is NAI. Changed meta is good sheeps clothing to hide in. I think cubs is neutral right now

This strikes me as two birds one stone. Throw sus at someone defending and cast doubt on cubs defense. Plus, saying everyone else thinks he is wolfy.... I thought most were saying he was village with diff behavior.

Strongest reads for me right now are: Village- Samac and True (despite seeing spoiler post that he thinks I should've been yeeted). Sporty as wolf. Everyone else is wait and see.

Noobs are difficult bc so much of the behavior I can identify going through the same thought processes. Kidswag and PSV can both be overexplainy. But that is mostly NAI. I think I did that as both village and wolf when starting. But more as a wolf.

No. I have never played with any before. Oh crap! Just realized I mixed up True and Bluetoast. Anyway. Overexplaining is common for starting out. Especially in a defensive manner. imo. Kidswag seems like he has that feeling of can't win for losing when explaining his case. Again, I felt that even more so when I wolfed for the first couple of times.

Village- Bluetoast and Samac. Sorry True, back in the wait and see pile (slight village lean).

If Blue turns out to be wolf, I will tip my cap to him and move on. And be very, very leery from now on. I will also try to act very betrayed bc he seems like he would feel very guilty if I pile on the betrayal.

If I was wolfing, I wouldn't have NK'd Samac. I would've tried converting her at the soonest point possible (assuming the mechanic is available to them).

Yeah. But now that I think about it, it would’ve been sus if Samac hadn’t been NK’d due to seeming so village

Yeah. Sporty seems wolfy. Maybe TWTBW. Or maybe I just feel bad for her bc she is upset. But needs to be flipped anyway

Agreed. My approach that I stated seems the best (look for sus ppl and don’t rule ppl out based off D1 actions). If we still yeet the most sus ppl we will be doing good. Hopefully flipping an original wolf would reveal that they have conversion ability. But I’m not banking on it. That shorty likes playing mind games

I get what you are saying. But she sticks out as most wolfy by a landslide. Nearly yeeted D1. Barely saved. Two proven villagers sus’d her. Vanilla claim. Icky posts. I’ve been in her situation and I feel bad for her (if she is village). But where are we supposed to go before her??

Bob ISO does not make me feel better about him. He mostly avoids discussing kdswg, which is strange considering how close she got to being yoten last night. When he does talk about her he makes vague statements that don't indicate a position either way. He was very focused on yeeting sporty and calling her posts wolfy at first but then started to backtrack and hedge. His claims that he wouldn't have killed samac as a wolf are just overexplainy and unnecessary and he backtracks on that when called out as well.
I think Bob is too experienced a player to be this middling. I get he's busy and hasn't really been keeping up but he seems suspicious as heck.

Goodnight everyone! Looking forward to hearing discussion from the vets in the morning, it feels like we have enough data to solve this thing now.

Here is a parting gift:

[BobLoblaw78]

Bobbles, who are you looking at rn besides sporty?

Right now, I’m watching others. I am unsure on PSV. I have concerns about you and cubs flying too much under the radar with village reads. I don’t like barks and Genny low posting (but I’m not caught up). I’m curious about sporty flip with how cubs was protecting. Guess I’ll check D2 results in a moment

 

[potentialsheltervet]

Excellent. Enjoy the suffering that'll ensue after I flip a wolf.

Because I'm not afraid to be wrong I just have to admit that AM did indeed flip a wolf. I'm not suffering per se though any more than the usual.

Oh wow. Didn’t see that one coming.

Kdswag had an innocent noob feel. And I didn’t see sporty escaping even though she seemed to easy or obvious.

I need to go catch up

Under the radar? Bob pls. If cubs is being village read theres gonna be some substantial reasons.

Cubbie you're so far under the radar. Post moar pls.

 

[BobLoblaw78]

If kdws does flip village, I'm going to Bob. I didn't like the sudden influx of activity when he was in danger.

When who was in danger? Me or kdws?

And activity from who? Me? (Sorry. I’m way behind again)

Well. I don’t know kdswg so not much to discuss. Out of the new people, oats was the only one that seemed more village. So I will take your implication a step further and tell you I thought kdswg wasn’t a wolf (at least to where I’m currently caught up- about 10 pages back)

 

[BobLoblaw78]

Actually, I lied. I'm still not done with Bob.

Bring it. I love it when you are wrong! 😝

 

[Animal Midwife]

And activity from who? Me? (Sorry. I’m way behind again)

Both of you were, but possibly others. Still haven't done trackers yet.

 

[BobLoblaw78]

Okay, then I'm going to have to begrudgingly agree with zenge that the people on the kdswg wagon are almost definitely villagers. AM is cleared at least since she doesn't bus.

Let’s not get too loose with the “cleared” part given possible mechanics. Continue hunting OG wolf.

 

[SportPonies]

stop playing trivia murder party and posting at the same time.

 

[BobLoblaw78]

What activity and from who? Bc I have been blatantly absent. I can say that I wouldn’t be an absentee wolf. And I would’ve been more helpful. But do what you will that info.

 

[BobLoblaw78]

Not so fast. Wolves can prez on other wolves for this very reason and I don't know that they had any incompatible actions prior to that.

I agree. If one wolf is going down. This move would buy whichever lived some village cred. But it would be a bus of sorts.

But if you think I am in wolf chat and not posting at end of day then you would be wrong.

The only one of the new people I felt great about commenting on was oats.

Despite my contingency yeet, Bob's total absence from the thread does make it hard to believe that he's a member of a small wolf pack.

Like, unless he doesn't care about the game at all, it feels extremely suboptimal to not even be around for vote-close time.

I know you guys have said several times that activity level is not an indicator, but abandoning your pack at the most crucial part of the game...

 

[Animal Midwife]

I'm still, of course, open to talking about others. I just haven't looked into them yet.

 

[Truenamer]

Same! I could be convinced it's a few different people (though the list is pretty short at this point).

I just wanted to get my thoughts out there in case something happens to me in the night.

 

[bluestoat]

The day cycles are long @Truenamer

Maybe I will be literate tomorrow and actually helpful

 

[BobLoblaw78]

People Im not interesting in voting for today: AM, Cubs, zenge (tentatively)

And then there’s everyone else I still need to think about and/or ISO

I didn’t get around to sending this 12 hours ago but was looking forward to a fresh perspective since things had gotten stale

Post 1626:

TLDR the lack of Bob/AM interaction that I described there and again right before this post, as well as the tone/type of posts he's making (much shorter, not quite as rambling) but he did come out and say he wouldnt have as much time this game so not sure how much i can use that for AI assessment in this game if thats true.

I think you have it backwards.

And Dubz’s posts looking at the past games seem to confirm that bit.

Wolf!Bob came at AM like a freight train in Madagascar.

I think the interactions are both reactive as a wolf. And whatever as v/v. I think it boils down to this: I play to kid around, be lighthearted and have fun. AM takes it very serious and is worried about doing the very best she can. I think something about the two styles clash and I can’t let my part in it go sometimes.

And lived to tell the tale, which is the most impressive part.

I can’t really even recall how that went down. I play moment to moment and don’t log too much of any of the games away.

I mean I AM 40 now. My memory could be fading or I could be mixing up games. The reason it stands out to me is because on several occasions I made the joke to bob that I understand what he's going through because I used to have many of the same arguments with her.

Got you by 3 years. So maybe I’m even more faded than you

 

[BobLoblaw78]

Have you mentioned this as a tell for him before? Like in previous games?

I’m well aware. It was actually bickering in general. Not just wolf. To the point that I told AM in wolf chat that we should bicker so ppl would not suspect we were packmates for criminal minds WW

Maybe. I don’t remember.

Maybe in my PM with Genny in LaWWpy? Idk.

I miss @gennys

I have a PM with bluestoat and I'm becoming more convinced she's a wolf. I know she's sick right now so I'm not going to unfairly focus on her activity, but she's said a few things that don't make sense to me if she's a villager. Specifics veer into village coding but having a PM with her isn't making me feel better about her affiliation.

This is concerning since I had her as strong village

I guess you're right. I don't know, guys. I just have the wolfy feel with stoat right now. Fine if no one else does or doesn't for the same reasons.

Crazy to think things change that drastically so quickly from this. April and WZ had large AtE tactic which burned me bad. So I try to set AtE aside.

What the heck, Zenge.

Speaking of the AtE and strong stances. I have not gotten over WZ and how well she wolfs.

Does WZ normally angry react if someone votes her like this?

 

[potentialsheltervet]

Let’s not get too loose with the “cleared” part given possible mechanics. Continue hunting OG wolf.

Well yes, but I highly doubt AM is an OG wolf because she voted kdswg this evening and that would be bussing, which she is apparently very adamantly against.

 

[potentialsheltervet]

This is concerning since I had her as strong village

I took a nap and feel better about stoat. Our PM ended at vote close as well. I think I got carried away and went a little too crazy into the netherworld. I'm back now and pretty neutral on stoat.

 

[BobLoblaw78]

Also, wait a minute, you people have PMs? Why don't I have any PMs?

Good to know someone else doesn’t have PMs besides me.

 

[Dinashadow]

stoaty pls, it's bad luck to try to kill mods, even worse when the mod is also Dina

 

[BobLoblaw78]

Were you purposely not here? Or were you just busy irl making this NAI?

Idk what you mean by purposely not here. But yes. I was busy irl.

I just try to be objective about ppls statements about me. While I would love false village cred, I really don’t want ppl to read me village for the wrong reasons. While I know I am village, I still can remain objective and find holes in statements (even if finding holes hurts my case)

stoaty pls, it's bad luck to try to kill mods, even worse when the mod is also Dina

It’s never a bad time to kill Dina
