Has genny been defending me because I'm a mile deep in her pocket
 
I guess the next question is, why would they do that? genny softed it back on Thursday, it's not like they just pulled it out of nowhere. Isn't it really risky to make a claim like that when they're not being pressured?

Also if that's the truth, only AM and myself don't have a PM with someone. 🙁
Vis is literally only compatible with genny per my compatibility list so the soft alone doesn't clear since whether they're lying or not about about being masons, it's true that they are connected AND clear to each other.
 
Okay, then it's time to case them and work to help the rest of us see that.
For genny, there is no mechanical evidence that she isn't a wolf. She also has been on the wagon of both misyeets this game (PSV and Alissa). We have all been tone-reading her as village, likely due to the fact that she had more time to dedicate to the game. She even pointed that out earlier this game, that we village read her based on her activity levels.

For Vis, I have talked a lot about her the last few days, especially noting how her vote for me on D1 didn't make any sense, especially with the flip-flopping of her voting then changing her mind and getting off my wagon and onto PSV's. To her, it probably didn't matter which person went down, since she knew that both people up for yeet were village. Her confusion over the wagons on D2 (specifically thinking that I was a wagon when I didn't have any votes) makes more sense now, because obviously nobody was voting for genny, so why should she pay close attention to the wagons? Her "push" on me yesterday was just compiling every post that mentions me and including a few lines of commentary on how I could be wolfing with AM. She still has not given legitimately solid reasoning for her vote on me, except a vague comment about my disagreement with PSV on D1 being a strawman.


As to why they are claiming masons now? Because we are in mylo and they see the perfect opportunity to stomp to a wolf win. This would be a genius way to win, and props to them for almost making it the whole game without us suspecting a thing.

I don't have a PM with anyone. None of their "softs" have specifically mentioned being masons, just defending each other. And genny defended you just like she did Vis, so I don't see how those defense posts point directly to them being masons without a doubt. And with the whole confusion over Vis being 100% certain they are masons, I could see that as being cover for when one of them flipped wolf and trying to not take down their packmate if we discovered one of them was a wolf. The 99.9% post was Vis giving their claim wiggle room if we didn't believe them.

Until genny and Vis come back to talk about this I'm going to

Unyeet Alley

I don't want to misyeet my little brother if I can help it.
 
I’m revealing at 10 mins to close. Y’all have 5 mins to get off my vote please.

But I think my role loses pretty much all power once I reveal it

@justafluff @vetschoolsletmeinplease @potentialsheltervet @AceHydro
@bluestoat @Ms Procrastinator @cubsrule4e @Animal Midwife @Zenge142 @samac

I am Benny the vampire, village vig with unlimited shots

I can presumably shoot tonight simultaneously even if the wolves take me out. I will get thread consensus on who to shoot tonight like AM did in Casino

This makes me so sad. I’ve always wanted to be a vig. I’m sorry y’all don't believe me

I don’t have anything else to share about my role. It’s too late to get people to change anyways

Just for reference, this is when she was misyeeted in the Supernatural game. The circumstances are fairly different (D1 with a good PR that she was excited to use, on vacation, much larger group piling on her), but I thought it would be good to at least read over.

Not sure if reading it helped me, I baby-modded that game and remember it weirdly.
 
Props to alley for how hard she’s fighting but every time I engage her she’s just said the same stuff about how what I’m saying doesn’t make sense and that I haven’t clarified and ignores it when I do clarify. I know it’s not in the spirit of the game to not engage here, and sorry about that, but I’ve already said what I said and I have no interest in headbutting any more brick walls. If you have specific questions I’m happy to answer them.

How come you lost track of the tally for the entirety of D2? Were you not discussing wagons with genny?

I don’t keep track of where the tally is throughout the day, I just look at where it is currently. I “saw” it was 2:2 alley:alissa and then a few hours before vote close I saw it was between alissa and Barks.

And no.

You might not like the discussion from Saturday. The words “what if there's just one wolf, and it's just AM?” (paraphrased in case it would be a problem for rules) may or may not have been uttered

Do you still think I'm wolfy?
 
Do you still think I'm wolfy?
You haven’t pinged me as too wolfy today. I’m not great at reading you in general, but in previous games I’ve been able to find when you’re wolfing in endgame, so I think I feel better about you from that angle. I also think Barks probably makes more sense mechanically, although I’m not as convinced as you are that it’s lock impossible for there to be both masons and a village protector in this context.

There's a chance there are conditions/limits on abilities that people haven't shared on thread. I'm not ruling out wolves based on the feeling of there being too many village PRs.

Dubz and KD could be trying something weird. They haven't laid out their specific mechanical vision for this game.

You don't think it's weird that wolves could perfectly kill/misyeet and still have a PR (which can likely clear itself) alive in yolo?
 
I want to engage more with Vis, but I’m about to start driving.

I am curious to learn what else she and genny discussed in “masons chat”


I just had to pack all of my stuff up from my grandparents’ house and now I’m driving to my parents’ house. Sorry, this couldn’t be avoided.

Can you please go back and quote when you answered my questions previously?

Refusing to engage is only beneficial to the wolves. They are the ones who will thrive on confusion and unanswered questions.

Yeah. I find it hard to rule anything out mechanically, but I definitely see what you’re saying. They might have had some really terrible luck with their abilities and with which PRs died, idk.

There's weird and then there's broken. I don't peg them to do the latter.
 
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”

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.

This is the series of posts I’m talking about [quotes]
 
Yeah. I find it hard to rule anything out mechanically, but I definitely see what you’re saying. They might have had some really terrible luck with their abilities and with which PRs died, idk.
Relying on extremely bad luck (i.e. village has to throw all the time) for a game to be winnable for wolves doesn't seem like their wheelhouse. Even continuous death would not stop this collection of PRs from breaking the game.
 
Voice to text sorry if there are things that don’t make sense.

The last time I remember seeing vis and Genny wolf together was in the Pirates game, where Genny had vis and the other wolf (pleasy) bus the heck out of her on day one of the game.

That allowed the noob wolves to coast until endgame, and was an extremely bold wolf play. I could without a doubt see them coming up with a similar play here on deciding to back each other as masons.

God, I wish I were that ballsy as a wolf.
 
@Viscernable it won’t let me quote your post because it’s just quotes.

Thank you for finding those posts.

I don’t think we are going to see eye to eye on the PSV discussion. I understand that you think my argument with her is wolfy, and I disagree. Obviously I know my affiliation so I am going to be biased and from my perspective, her wolf reading AM and her voting for me just because I questioned her was sus as heck.

You’re right that the genny comparison wasn’t a good one to make (especially since genny wasn’t even voting for her in the end), but I still believe that when people only suspect people that are disagreeing with them, it’s not good village play. That’s not completely what PSV was doing, but it felt that way to me in the moment.

Is my disagreement with PSV and the ensuing confusion over that the only reason you’re voting for me? Because if not, I would appreciate you explaining what else I’ve done that’s made you vote for me.
 
After several hours of my brain percolating, I will state the obvious and say that the wolves are either specifically genny-Vis or Barks-Alley.

There's just no way the AM I've seen today is wolfing, on top of all of the issues that would come with pairing her with each of you. Just no way.
 
Yes. I'm not sure if it's just me or if it's something meaningful. I'd iso'd "misyeet" for alley across SDN because I noticed she is saying it a lot this game.
Even as recently as choose your own I see examples of her saying it frequently.

I don't think there's a smoking gun here, unless I'm overlooking something.
 
@Truenamer I searched up alley's name and "misyeet" across the forum. Do you think it could be significant or just a fluke?
There’s nothing linked, but I get misyeeted and talk about those misyeets a lot, so I’m not sure what you’re getting at.

Yes. I'm not sure if it's just me or if it's something meaningful. I'd iso'd "misyeet" for alley across SDN because I noticed she is saying it a lot this game.
Because I don’t want to be misyeeted, plain and simple. I know that defending myself is the only way I can convince y’all to get off of my vote and onto the vote of a wolf.
 
It's 7:00 p.m., I think at some point I'm going to have to commit.

Let's yeet... genny?

God, every option feels like a choke waiting to happen.

Is this after the alley search or is it what your gut is telling you to do?

Masons on top of the confirmed PRs does feel like a lot in a game this small.

Alley's role/ability reveal feel real. That's exactly the kind of PR that KayDubz like to use.

Barks is... slightly less trustworthy to me but still feels real.

There's no mechanical reason to trust genny over Alley, it's just tone and vibes. Nothing hard.

I believe that you are a villager. I don't think other pairs make sense.

Ergo, it has to be Vis+genny.

Of the two.... My gut tells me genny has a better PR. Could be wrong. It's 50/50.

Okay, I want to join you so bad. My heart is racing.

The last piece of evidence that makes me feel like it's genny?

She's basically been the only person sticking up for me consistently since day one. It gave me the same happy "we are buddies and need to look out for each other" feeling that I had for Dubz in StardeWW. 😞
