Is there evidence that cult can’t convert wolves, or is this speculation?
Usually they can't because it breaks the game unless there is no communication between the Cult and Cultists

The latter is possible but it's still a bit on the bastardy side for wolves to be convertable to another faction (not that I haven't done it... #bastardmod)

I’m glad to see you’ve finally accepted your title.
 
I wonder what we'll need to bribe the mods with to get an explanation of how the factions work, exactly

Not knowing what they're capable of is half the problem (the other half being the abundance of wolves and cultists)
 
I'm trying to think about balance and stuff and what the frequency of cult recruitment might be given this is such a small game. But it's probably bad to try to assume anything especially without knowing some of the other details.

We'd also have to make assumptions about the sadism of the mods, which seems risky

I've modded with KD many many times and with shorty once so I have some idea, but it's always a dangerous game
 
Night 1
a whispered conversation or two could be heard. Or were those crickets?
Night 2
I didn't find anything that could hint at recruitment

Night 3
Life didn't seem that different now, other than she walked across the bridge each day to work. It seemed fine to her. Sure, she wasn't supporting the local economy as much as she used to, but that wasn't really a concern that most cows had to begin with.
This would seem to indicate, maybe, that she was already recruited prior to last night. Maybe.

So I guess I'm kind of leaning n1 for AM recruitment which...doesn't help me much. Though based on this maybe we're lucky and there was no n2 recruitment? I don't even know.
 
Stoat mentioned this in our PM and it's worth bringing up here: what's with the glowing light killing people? Is it just flavor, or should we read something into it?

I think every kill has mentioned the light. Does that mean it's been the same wolf getting chosen to do the kills? Not unreasonable if there were only two of them total.

It feels like flavor to me because I can’t think of anything game-specific that would be consistent with that, but idk. I also didn’t know there were blue chickens.
 
So it was you last night, Bob the night before. Who was night one?


Write-ups have been top notch, y'all will have to tell me how I can nominate or vote for them, I heard that there are awards.
There are AWWards every year and one of them is Best Flavor Writer 🙂 but you'll have to wait until December to submit nominations. There is a thread already so you can keep track of ideas there if you want.

Flavor. Could indicate the same wolf doing every kill. Could just be how the mods decided to depict deaths this game.
 
Part of what I hate about this is that I had a pretty solid idea of who the village bloc was and now my bloc is full of hole and questions.

Like Sporty and Dubz, you've both gone from "they're almost definitely village" to "??????" and it sucks.
 
Last night's write up was a shortDina special 😍

Had to give some love to depressi shane and his chickens :chicken:
shortDina last night, and one smol, undercaffeinated shorty for this morning's! 😍
 
I was outgunned, outmanned, outnumbered, and outplanned. I was glad cubs closed the vote early so I could just die already.
You get one shorty!Point for the Hamilton reference. Points are redeemable for tasty recipes.
 
Same for the others actually since I just reread them all
Fun fact: all of us are writing but shorty’s posting cause the forum likes her best. I can’t speak for how it feels about Dina but seeing as I crash the server regularly, it hates me!!

I whisper sweet nothings and other flattery to the server while quietly editing in formatting at the same time.
 
Who was night one?
I was burglarized night one. I didn't think Bob was burgled, though. I thought he was just jailed. I asked on thread earlier whether anyone else had been stolen from but no response re: N2, so either someone doesn't want to confess for an unknown reason, the player is already dead, or it's an every other night action.

I don't think that fits any of the dead villagers, but may have been Kds?

I remember seeing speculation that kdswg was the thief due to the "forager" (or maybe it was scavenger) part of her role. I would've thought the write-up would have some hint to that, though.
Also, if kdswg was the one stealing money, the wolfpack either gained her ability when she died or barks is lying.

See I have the same problem as KD. I just want to beat the forum into submission and apparently it doesn't like that :thinking:

I don't think barks is lying, it just feels like a very low-value lie and I can't figure out a motivation for it. Makes much more sense to just be telling the truth and trying to help with more information (and now that there's a confirmed 3P faction, "trying to help" and "being a wolf" aren't mutually exclusive)

I agree, which is why I don't think kdswg was the one doing the thieving.
 
Also, I've been at work since 6:30 this morning and up since 5:45. I'm not sure what I was expecting to see in the thread when I got off work but two scum factions sure wasn't it.

Unless barks is the thief
