Stranger Things Part 2 - WW Game Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I kinda meant more specifics, like what are you seeing that I'm not seeing. But point taken.
i don't know what it is that you are seeing. i feel like true spewed his village meta D1, and then the things he said after the psv flip do not sound like wolf fakery to me. and vis has been 100% true to her village meta: she's gamesolving, she's asking questions, she sounds village.

i'm pretty sure alissa is a wolf, i'm just not as sure of her partner.
 
I’m getting the tingles. The AM wolfing tingles. Is alissa/AM likely? Idr their interactions before now. I was considering alley/AM but I see no reason for her to be defending alissa instead of getting on her yeet in that case, but I could see why she would want Barks gone, want to keep alley around (alley’s been very amenable to the idea of village!alissa iirc but I might be wrong there), and/or feel like it would be sus for her to 180 on alley.


Ah I see

Unyeet AM

But like, the individually wolfy tingles are there.
Hi Vis…. I literally put that in my role PM today.. I got wolf AM tingles earlier. Idk what it is but in the last 24 hours or so I’ve been squicked out
their posts. they sound village. they're saying village things.
Yup and true insisting he is village over and over sure gives me warm n fuzzy feels

Wait. Why do you think I'm wolfing if you suspect True?
 
I will say I’m not opposed to a barks vote tbh
 
Gentle breezes:
AM - over my fit of tingles. Unless it’s exactly AM/true or AM/genny I can’t see it, and it was only her posts today that were tingly.

genny - there was one post that made me flashback to alien genny doing the same thing, but otherwise she’s been really giving village light sass and village solving

Light sprinkles:
True - His tone sounds really village but I can’t really point to anything specific giving evidence of villageyness, and I think I need to re-evaluate him since there’s just no wolf pack that’s really popping out at me. I can see what alissa means about him re-emphasizing his villageness too much. I ignored that at first because I think that’s something village True does, too, but I don’t actually remember, and it sure was something he did a lot while scumming

Humidity:
alissa - there’s mostly just that maybe-TMI-slip and her stretchy reasoning on me today. I don’t agree with all her reasoning on True but I don’t see it as wolfy reaching, either. Her frustrated explanation about reaching for anything to get discussion going sounds likely to me and the situation is giving me Madagascar-alley flashbacks

Barks - There’s nothing she’s done that seems specifically wolfy, and I’ve gotten a slightly villagey feeling from her tone/the way she’s approached solving, but there’s just a lot less evidence of it than everyone else on thread (including alley and alissa - they’ve done villagey things, just also some sus things). I’m waffling back on forth on how to interpret her current disagreement with alley about whether alley’s reasoning for voting PSV was way more in-depth than barks’s or not. I’m kind of falling towards the way alley sees it, now, since yeah Barks’s reason was valid but could have been a very easy sheeping. But I also still feel very wary of at least one of the reasonings alley gave for voting PSV (“PSV was voting just to retaliate”), and Barks expressed similar concern about that reasoning

alley - very mixed read. There’s a lot of posts that feel very much like the investedness of village!alley in solving. She’s seemed to be more focused on logic than on remembering details, which I tentatively associate with villagery enthusiasm about solving but carefreeness/not being so worried about appearing to be caught in a lie. However, she could be intentionally misrepresenting things like whether Barks had reasoning on PSV, whether I had reasoning on alley, etc, and just is good at sounding genuine. The way she pushed that PSV was retaliatory voting really, really pinged me as a bad-faith push.



This heat wave:
???? :bang:
 
Alissa and true have both made me uncomfortable but they’re obviously not compatible and alissa has made me feel worse

I guess that's one useful thing from this.
This interaction between AM and Barks made me eeek. Since when has AM been so comfortable at the possibility of a misyeet??? She normally fights us tooth and nail. And I also haven’t been subjected to AM’s 20 Qs yet nor has she made me feel squirmy. Village!AM always makes me feel squirmy regardless of my own affiliation
 
My reads today… lots of shift because I’m paranoid and feel as though I know nothing

genny

alley
AM
Vis


barks

True

also I can look again but I’ve been mostly caught up with thread for today. True is so sure he’s not a wolf yet I haven’t seen any form of wolf hunting from him today. Just retaliation against my campaign to yet him. At least I’m trying and open to looking elsewhere.

Are you reading the same thread I am? Also not sure what is meant by the bolded since this whole post seems to be shading me.
 
Not really sure. genny and Vis seems certain it's not a hit.
If your entire WW reputation were at stake, who would you say the two wolves were right now?

For me, it would be True/barks or maybe True/Vis if I had to choose. I’m so paranoid right now that I could be wrong about everything but idk true be sus.

I’m just missing the 20Qs I get from you. I admit I’ve done some sketchy shiz this game and I expected you to hammer me way harder for it lol

Maybe I missed something but what did AM do to make you get over the tingles so quickly
 
Not gonna lie, this feels like the kind of "what do you guys think of going for this other villager" thing that I do when I'm a wolf
Nice try but I just posted my most recent reads list. Barks is #2 from the bottom. But okay
 
i don't know what it is that you are seeing. i feel like true spewed his village meta D1, and then the things he said after the psv flip do not sound like wolf fakery to me. and vis has been 100% true to her village meta: she's gamesolving, she's asking questions, she sounds village.

i'm pretty sure alissa is a wolf, i'm just not as sure of her partner.
What would you say is “true’s village meta”? I have yet to play a game with him where he was village (anniversary he died N1)
 
Well it seems to me that genny and AM have been at the top of everyone’s village reads. So either their village or we’re all screwed
 
That leaves resolve needed between me, barks, alley, true, and vis
 
She sounded village D1 and she’s only compatible with two villagery people.
Ok but today is D2. I agree she sounded village D1, but we have two dead villagers including a PR. So…
 
If your entire WW reputation were at stake, who would you say the two wolves were right now?

For me, it would be True/barks or maybe True/Vis if I had to choose. I’m so paranoid right now that I could be wrong about everything but idk true be sus.
Not True/Vis because it's outside of True's wolfing meta to keep going after a packmate like that.

It's like Barks/??? currently.

I like this post, except for having me at the bottom of course. I follow your logic I just don't agree with all of it. I also don't really see how I am a mixed read but I'm at the way bottom.

The whole disagreement with PSV wolf reading me and AM but not wolfreading genny was confusing AF because I got mixed up that genny wasn't actually voting for her. I genuinely thought she was just wolfreading the people who expressed the most disagreement to her. You pointed that out as a "strawman" argument and I disagree. There were also like 3 other reasons why I voted for her, so that wasn't my sole reason for thinking she was wolfy. I understand squinting at me because I was wrong, but I don't understand why that disagreement painted me as so wolfy in your eyes. Is there something else that I've done that makes you think I'm scummy?
 
I understand what you’re saying (though idk how much gut feelings are gonna correlate to the game), but now it looks as if you’re backtracking on your AM push just because she resisted to it and argued back. Which tbh isn’t a great look.
Hmmm I certainly agree with what this post point out but the phrasing of it tickles me. “It looks like” - sounds almost like you don’t believe that’s what’s happening, but you’re here to throw shade for it anyway. “Which tbh isn’t a good look” - somehow pings me as more consistent with wolfy!alley tone than village!alley
 
Not True/Vis because it's outside of True's wolfing meta to keep going after a packmate like that.

It's like Barks/??? currently.
And you really can’t see a possibility of true/barks?
 
If by some weird chance genny and AM are the wolves, I volunteer the rest of us to partake in the dry pancake challenge
 
Mountainous means no power roles, right?

Other than me being the Alpha Townie, of course.

Well, I'm Vanilla, the rest of you just have no abilities.

Look, if I don't do dumb stuff like this when I'm a villager, I'm not going to be able to get away with anything when I'm a wolf 😅

Vis drop me lower please, you're gonna get me killed tonight 🤣
Ok I found some evidence of True overstating village-ness from Mountains but it’s not as explicit as this game or the last. Idk what to think anymore

I am sorry if it came off that way, but I stand by what I said. I was starting to get frustrated with PSV backtracking on her suspicion of AM as soon as she defended herself. It looked very sus from my pov, like a wolf realizing the vote wasn't going to get traction or support.
 
@Animal Midwife you seem to have genny in your village pile right now, how do you feel about her reads list being so different from yours?

Ughhh what if PSV was right about AM? Personally I never like to invite AM’s wrath regardless if I’m village or wolf.

Are we like eating pancakes without any toppings or eating pancake mix?
 
I agree with Barks but want to note this light defence in case alissa or barks flips wolf
I will add I was a bit surprised by this barks post. Barks usually sus reads me early on….

I just feel very mixed about everyone, is the problem. I think there have also been some small pings here and there colouring my read but I’m not good at remembering those details.

On PSV:
- we thought genny was voting PSV (I thought I saw AM saying she was? I might have misread at the time)
- PSV posted reads with genny at the top and AM, alley, and me, people suspicious of her, near the bottom. She acknowledged that feeling instinctively suspicious of people pushing her might be biasing her reads
- you said “wow you really think it’s pro-village to automatically scumread people suspicious of you? This is retaliatory and super suspicious.”
- you also said “wow why is genny at the top if she’s voting for you, why is she different from the other people suspicious of you? This is sus”
- the answer to the above is imo obvious: sometimes the way people push you feels villagey and sometimes it feels like it’s in bad faith. Interactions with people pushing you can be very revealing, so it’s not at all sus for people to take them into account when making reads, ESPECIALLY if you acknowledge that you might be biased to feel suspicious of people voting you. Having some people voting you at the top of your reads and some at the bottom is evidence AGAINST someone being automatically retaliatory or trying to bully people away from voting you
- so your reasonings are both individually sus to me and are 100% contradictory

Edit: lol I meant PSV where I said alissa. 9 people in a game is obviously too many for me to not type the wrong name all the time
Edit: corrected names and corrected from “voting for” to “pushing”

I just don't really see it. AM seems to be more like her village self than wolf!AM. I also have a certain AM wolf tell that I haven't seen yet. It is how I ended up catching her (admittedly from dead chat in 2 of the games) in criminal minds, SPN, and anniversary game. So I think it is pretty reliable.
 
Hmmmm just throwing it out there… what if there are two lone wolves that need to find each other or something? Would explain why we are having trouble lining a pack up
 
Alissa/true - definitely doesn’t make sense
Alissa/alley - possibly if they’re going for “obvious team is too obvious to be wolf”
Alissa/vis - maybe? I don’t see why not

And then I don’t think is AM or genny so
 
Also the way you’ve seemed to be intentionally disingenuous with missing the reason I find your reasoning sus, despite me already explaining at least once that it was based on understanding that you thought genny was voting for her (I had the same misunderstanding, but that’s irrelevant to my evaluation of your reasoning) is another thing about it that’s pinging me.
