This feels less screamingly wrong.

vote Pippy

 

[WonderingStudent]

No, I saw it it as 100% village, which is why I moved my vote off Snowy and proceed to vouch for her all day and night.

FINAL Day 1 Welcome to Hawkins! Yeet Vote

snowy (4) - AM, Wondering, rocky, sporty

I'm confused at this point. But you didn't move your vote off of Snowy? What? Unless you mean how you aren't voting for them today which is different and she is dead so that would be difficult. And I don't think you said that Snowy was 100% village. You said her behavior was NAI. Where did you vouch for her all day and night?

Wonder please read my post again.

 

[Animal Midwife]

Nah. I slept. Slept bad last night, had doctor appt at 7:30 this morning.
Good news though: I’m awake now!

Once again, ping me when you are caught up.

 

[deleted804295]

To be completely honest.... I agree that AM feels weird.

Yup 🤐

Oh! sarcasm 😱

 

[genny]

To be completely honest.... I agree that AM feels weird.

Like wolfy weird or just 3p weird? Because I can ignore the 3p weirdness.

 

[SportPonies]

Anyways. Should probably stay on topic oops. I’m gonna lazily vote koda I thinks.

Hmmm.
Meta probably differs because WW culture has changed in the years since Rocky last played

Hmm not liking this vote, or the explanations when there was push back really. Strong player does not have to mean dangerous player. We typically like to keep Genny around a little bit

The last sentence hear kinda sounds preachy, almost overly helpful? NAI at this point in my read through. Just something I noted.

Alright, I'm just saying if she gets voted out on D1, that is pretty cruel regardless.

this makes me inclined to believe AM wouldn’t kill Lawp as soon as he subs in, but idk.

Shoot, I don't have any Christmas lights on me this time of year. Guess I can't answer your questions!

Guessing this is a show joke because of the laugh reacts but like. Seriously. Can I have answers now? Why are you being intentionally obstinate and not being called out on it?

I feel like you are harping on weirdly detailed things

Even for AM. Yeah, I kinda agree on this

Preeeeciscely. I really should have read up some previous games to see how strategies have changed before jumping in, but that’s on me. It’s a bit of a learning curve

0/10 do not recommend

we could use some old school strategy, tbh

 

[sheltermed]

just went through the thread and this is what I got. italic stuff is thoughts/talking to myself

Way too much posting.

I feel like this isn't unusual for AM but there are also maybe one or two times I can think of where she did not post a lot but don't remember how she flipped those times either so this is a moot point and i'm typing for no reason

my overall feeling is that snowy is village, yes.

this like soft clears you for me idk

Tried to get some more info with my night action, but unfortunately I was unable to.

what does this mean

{comment re: page 7: why's everyone voting for sporty? did the n1 results lead you to this?

also, I feel like pippy always comes into games supplying knowledge that I'm not sure how she comes upon, such as "there is a dead avoidance" yesterday--idk how you knew that, my b if it was explained somewhere but this seems typical of pippy (@Animal Midwife : is this what you mean by on top of mechanics?) }

(pg 8: sunbodi really wants ppl to vote for AM I guess ; why are we thinking that Mutts was framed? Like, what does Lawper being killed have to do with Mutts being framed?)

Note: I don’t make spreadsheets or anything like that so I have a hard time keeping track of who says what when etc

Oh I am always uninformed regardless of what side I’m on

I can relate to this sentiment

I was going to ask @sheltermed what they’re feeling today since I don’t think they were around near the end of the day yesterday but I saw they’re going to be busy today

1) I appreciate your use of gender neutral terms
2) i also feel like you're trying to be my buddy and i dont think I like it as much as I do lack buddies and would like to have them

Omg my genny vote for the 47363636 time was a joke. I wolfed with her just last game and she seems totally different this game. I was making a joke aimed mostly for her and Moose, nothing deeper than that. And as for you? I wish I could say you were a wolf but I just don’t know. I don’t think you’re cleared for yesterday- not enough info for that- but you’re also not condemned the way you probably would’ve been if she’d flipped wolf.

all of this gives me a bad feeling

BC but at the moment you feel village so I'm putting you here.

don't love this read and have you on an iffy list because of it

So...you think being in the upside down is indicative of affiliation?

I would disagree with this because if going by lore there are both good guys and bad guys in the upside down

To be completely honest.... I agree that AM feels weird.

I feel as though AM is AM

---

gonna #####vote BigCats###### again for now based on how im feeling

edited to fix spacing but i dont think it helped

 

[sheltermed]

omg sorry I compiled that in a word doc and things were more spaced out than I had intended

 

[PippyPony]

Guessing this is a show joke because of the laugh reacts but like. Seriously. Can I have answers now? Why are you being intentionally obstinate and not being called out on it?

I don't even know what answers you want

and I'm not being called out because

Spoiler: ...

and my gif game is just getting started

 

[Sunshine in a Storm]

Like wolfy weird or just 3p weird? Because I can ignore the 3p weirdness.

I too feel that AM might be a wolf. I’m still not fully convinced.

 

[Animal Midwife]

{comment re: page 7: why's everyone voting for sporty? did the n1 results lead you to this?

I'm curious to see if Snowy may have been resistance to Sporty and also want to hear reads from her.

also, I feel like pippy always comes into games supplying knowledge that I'm not sure how she comes upon, such as "there is a dead avoidance" yesterday--idk how you knew that, my b if it was explained somewhere but this seems typical of pippy (@Animal Midwife : is this what you mean by on top of mechanics?) }

I actually was referring to her insistence that there's no way to tell that last night kills weren't double kills (which what considering how much discussion was about Snowy and her avoidance). And then pushing the idea that the other kill could only come from a non-villager. Pippy is much better at mechanics and deciphering writeups than me so it's jarring that she's acting so lost about this.

 

[muttmanager]

@sheltermed Lawpy voted me yesterday so they killed him to make it look like I killed him in retaliation.

 

[Animal Midwife]

I too feel that AM might be a wolf. I’m still not fully convinced.

Do you want some shears?

 

[PippyPony]

@sheltermed when I am playing a game where I am excited about the theme, I come into games theorizing about the game design. That's why I made like 6 posts explaining some of the things in the show (including one explaining exactly why I thought there would be death avoidances, which I guess people did not read).

Kind of kicking myself though because village won't read those types of posts, and wolves like to interpret any structure discussion as power role hints, whereas what's really happening is:

I have no idea, I'm just touching the toxic slime.

@SportPonies is winning!
Deadline: 10pm EST (~4 hours)

 

[SportPonies]

This answer makes me feel comfortable with voting you

vote sporty

Seems other people have harped on this so maybe it’s answered later, but.... literally what about that answer makes you think I’m wolfy enough to vote for?

I think mutts' reasoning for voting her was weird and ~coincidentally~ tipped her into the lead, which is weird to me. I personally don't really get why she is/was in the lead anyway, so on a relative scale of villagery, Sporty would be closer to the village side than mutts is. But if I had to give a "village read", nah, not there yet.

Idk why I quoted this. Probably because of the above

 

[MOOSEygoosey]

this like soft clears you for me idk

Referencing Sunshine stating they think Snowy is village.

Not a big fan of this, why does it soft clear Sunshine? Just because Snowy ended up being villager doesn't mean people who said they thought she was villager before she died are clearned.

What are your other wolf reads besides BC?
Any village reads?

 

[muttmanager]

No, not what I am saying.
At the time, capri, kota, sporty and I were there.
Capri said it sucks. It does, implying she knows what it means to be here. As do I
Kotas reply wasn’t firm but didn’t imply they had no clue what it meant
Sporty out right said she doesnt know what it means.

I am saying if she doesn’t know what it means then she did not receive the same mod information. Which leads me to believe it may affect a wolf differently, or she is lying about not knowing.

So do you not know what it means to be in the upside down?

 

[SportPonies]

I feel like I understand why mutts voted for me yesterday. Not inclined to go there

 

[SportPonies]

So do you not know what it means to be in the upside down?

Ah just saw this. Sorry, on page 5 or something. Got a phone call because I’m destined to never catch up

I think I understand why you voted for me now that I looked closer. But no. That was not me feigning ignorance. That was me not understanding what significance the upside down has in the actual source material.

 

[SportPonies]

Could you explain your ultimate lean (just the affiliation) of rocky, Wonder, Sporty, genny, and allie? I'm getting confused about what your wolfreads are.

This post tone doesn’t sound right from AM.

I think snowy is village. I haven’t seen anything that shouts wolf

Wait so from one post you're able to read Snowy as village?

^this, though the rest of sunshine’s posts seem villagey to me at this point (starting page 7)

 

[Animal Midwife]

Referencing Sunshine stating they think Snowy is village.

Not a big fan of this, why does it soft clear Sunshine? Just because Snowy ended up being villager doesn't mean people who said they thought she was villager before she died are clearned.

I'm reading shelter as village, but I do agree with you about the Sunni thing.

 

[Animal Midwife]

Because?

1) idk why you think wolves wouldn't try to take out a possible third party if they thought that player was a monster who could munch their guts out

2) I also don't know why you think I'm suddenly stupid enough to just blindly believe that shooting someone with a death avoidance on N1 makes the shooter a slam dunk villager

 

[SportPonies]

Double kills?

Dang it. Sorry snowy, and lawper, too.
I think my top two at this point are mutts and sporty. Mutts has contributed a bit more than sporty at this juncture as far as finding wolves and getting information out so right now I am going to

###vote sporty###

Tried to get some more info with my night action, but unfortunately I was unable to.

village points to Rocky

Vote AM

Way too much posting.

Why do wolves keep N1 killing Lawpy? 🙁 NOT COOL

And wolves. Why'd you kill snowy after they avoided death???? That's so not cool.

This post feels forced

Well, just so we're all on the same page, I heard through the grapevine that Snowy was a vig shot, so if that's true then there haven't been double kills yet.

I don’t trust youe

Who are you looking at outside of me? We can have multiple wagons, but you need to walk me through your thought process.

tone also feels off for AM

How do you feel about the Sporty votes?

Feel like this is a state the obvious post since she thinks I’m a woof. Doesn’t make me feel good about you

I’m fine with them but would prefer you today

How would it make you feel if I voted BC today?

 

[Animal Midwife]

1) idk why you think wolves wouldn't try to take out a possible third party if they thought that player was a monster who could munch their guts out

2) I also don't know why you think I'm suddenly stupid enough to just blindly believe that shooting someone with a death avoidance on N1 makes the shooter a slam dunk villager

A) Why not leave her around to be vote bait if they can take out a widely village read player instead? Also, how do wolves know a 3p even exists in this game unless it's hinted at in their abilities?

B) Can you explain exactly why it's anti-village to shoot someone who avoids avoids being yote?

 

[MOOSEygoosey]

I'm reading shelter as village, but I do agree with you about the Sunni thing.

Wait, don't get it twisted. Sunshine is Sunshine, Sunbodi is Sunni.

 

[PippyPony]

Side note -- if anyone wants to come down here tonight and and help me escape back to the real world before i become a bug-ridden monster snack, that would be great

It's creepy and I don't have a respirator

 

[Animal Midwife]

Wait, don't get it twisted. Sunshine is Sunshine, Sunbodi is Sunni.

I call them Sunni and Suni, respectively. Always have.

 

[MOOSEygoosey]

I call them Sunni and Suni, respectively. Always have.

Understood, noting that from now on.

 

[MOOSEygoosey]

Just for those reading my posts, I have separated Sunshine and Sunbodi by calling Sunshine (just that) and Sunbodi Sunni. I will not now call Sunbodi Suni with 1 n so there's less confusion.

Edit: typo

 

[PippyPony]

A) Why not leave her around to be vote bait if they can take out a widely village read player instead? Also, how do wolves know a 3p even exists in this game unless it's hinted at in their abilities?

Because it's a dubz/s game and the source material 100% supports it

B) Can you explain exactly why it's anti-village to shoot someone who avoids avoids being yote?

Because it was a villager who they you shot

 

[muttmanager]

How would it make you feel if I voted BC today?

Meh, I don’t think it’d change much.

 

[Animal Midwife]

Because it's a dubz/s game and the source material 100% supports it

I've played dubz/kdubs games without any 3p. If the source material argument is serious, this implies at least one wolf has in-depth knowledge of this show.

Because it was a villager who they you shot

So the pro-village thing would've been to misvote her instead?

 

[SportPonies]

Oh no we lost two villagers! RIP

Hmmm. Post feels forced. Also feels weird for a wolf to make. WIFOM

Like wolfy weird or just 3p weird? Because I can ignore the 3p weirdness.

Idk yet. My tone reads don’t differentiate

I don't even know what answers you want

and I'm not being called out because

Spoiler: ...

and my gif game is just getting started

you never answered why you voted for me yesterday. Almost moot now, but your answer avoidance is obnoxious

Because?

Because tone

 

[SportPonies]

I am now caught up.

 

[SportPonies]

Yeet AM

 

[deleted804295]

Wait, don't get it twisted. Sunshine is Sunshine, Sunbodi is Sunni.

Sunny*

 

[Animal Midwife]

Because tone

This is why I'm voting you.

 

[sheltermed]

including one explaining exactly why I thought there would be death avoidances, which I guess people did not read

it was like the first thing I read from you (not literally, but it's what you wrote that stuck out to me the most) -- now that I think about it, it makes sense that there would be a death avoidance in the game because of the people who cheat death in the show, but I didn't think of it this way when you first said it. I was like dang, how does she know that. I just don't tend to think that deeply into things, but it's a good thing you do

I agree that it seems sarcastic or something but not sure what to make of it

@MOOSEygoosey since you asked about my soft clear for sunshine. my phrasing was super loose if you hadn't noticed. it's not definitive, just make me feel better about sunshine that they read a villager as village. i know that doesn't mean anything in the grand scheme. I was just saying.

 

[sheltermed]

i'm still confused about the sporty vote tbh

 

[BigCats]

Feel like this is a state the obvious post since she thinks I’m a woof. Doesn’t make me feel good about you

My reasoning for asking this was to see if this is the kind of vanity wolfread you’d throw out against a teammate but not actually follow up on. Keeping a wolf in your POE so you can point back to it later as proof that you’re not just trying to hunt villagers. I like open-ended questions to see where people’s heads are at and to compare words to actions further down the road.

Definitely be careful with any terms that include "clear". "Village read" suffices in most cases.

A hard clear means you have proof of someone's affiliation.

A soft clear means you have proof of someone's ability (or lack thereof).

 

[PippyPony]

I don't understand why this is a problem when it was a day one vote and I moved it to a person who was also voting for you because I thought it was sketchy how they did it
