How can I know he is telling the truth about lying???

 

[mmmdreamerz]

Not sold on kata...Zen is playing differently than last game when she was a wolf (quieter...)...not sure if this her village self or not though.

Lynch lotf

 

[vetmedhead]

I know you aren't improtant. But I had fair reason last night. Also I need my village friends alive especially since I'm doubting a lot of my village reads now (not to say you wouldn't make a good convert so keeping at arms distance). As I said my village leans, PR guesses, and myself are on rng typically.

That being said what do you think of dvmd, trilt, deva, and Zen?

I went through their posts and the one I would be most suspicious of out of this list is deva; however, I personally was getting more feels from LOTF (not on your list) on my read through. She's a big question mark for me and I feel hasn't been giving me much to go off and I'd like to hear more from her.

Lynch LOTF

 

[cheathac]

My current theory is you are both wolves the way you are talking about/supporting one another.

Ok so yeah me questioning kata's moves means I'm supporting her. That wasn't a solid reason for your waffling on me

 

[Trilt]

Yeah well I had a legitimate reason as do a lot of people. At least I got my lynch in unlike some other players who also had legitimate reasons. And I've been posting more. And I'm not really a fan of being a bully and using profanity so LYNCH TRILT until I manage to get a solid reason on someone

Still a long while yet till lynch closes so I can change it. Didn't like the profanity.

If the word "bitch" sets you off this much I have some bad news about vet med, lol...

Only thing that I can say is that this moves cheat more village-y to me, because I'm pretty sure fellow wolves would have coached her in the general rules of sketch.

Go pay attention to yesterday, there was very little talk. Very little, especially at lynch end. And, I didn't switch my vote, I never voted MJ. I'm also not Monday morning quarterbacking, I'm honestly explaining how I felt while recognizing that MJ was an egg that needed to be answered due to his posting the previous day. He was seeming incredibly wolfy on... Wednesday and less so yesterday, but still that needs an egg cracking. That isn't a Monday morning quarterback...that is real analysis.

I even specifically said lynch was slow yesterday, not arguing that point at all. And I'm just saying it is very easy to say "so and so was obviously village-y," when we have mod confirmation that they were, in fact, village.

And I skimmed and saw the swap from mj, but not the previous buttcrack swap to him, haha.

It's not the same thing. In that case, killing LIS directly benefited her (she could make the argument that she wouldn't do that so early) without any real drawback. In my case, lynching MJ does not make me look good. On the whole it makes me look bad. I'm not going to intentionally put an effort into a bad lynch, especially one that yes, is a bit out of character for me, just so I can have this argument the next day. I typically don't try to set myself up for more work. Very easy and much more in character for me to stay off a bad MJ lynch if I knew he was village. That's what I'm getting at.

Didn't you think I was faking the "research" thing in the period game? You know, the one where I was village? 😛 Anyways it's not that I don't like that you're reading me (soft) village, it's just that I feel weird about people agreeing with me.
But then thinking back to the basics game I think we were on the same (wrong) wavelength a fair bit towards the end there before I died, so I'm more ok with it now. Especially after your posts today.

I feel the same way about lyra and it's probably going to bug me all game.


See above response to Deva. I don't really know what other explanation you want from me. Yup, power roles are hard to lynch, but everything I said in that post was meant to be taken in the particular context that it was MJ we were talking about, not any random vanillager. I just don't understand why you think that I would want to position myself as pushing a bad village lynch on someone who I am known for being hesitant to lynch. And yeah, I did push it. I still think he probably would have gotten lynched without my vote, but maybe not as easily without my going back and confirming that his meta supported how a couple of us were feeling about his grumpy posts. Several people jumped on that and used it for their reasoning.

Honestly, this is satisfactory to me. It was a twinge, and l was getting grumpy pushing lotf to absolutely no avail. So maybe let's bring some grumpiness back:

Unlynch WZ, lynch lotf

It is annoying to me that basically nobody else is finding her compete and utter lack of contributions and complete skating by sketchy. As I said before, she has had lots of time to say how busy she is but very little to respond to things or give reads... the same thing other people are getting questioned for. Am I missing something here?

 

[Trilt]

Haha, and I love that in the time it takes me to type that on my phone she accumulates some votes. Oi.

 

[WildZoo]

Thing is I'm not too concerned that Zen is playing differently than she did as a wolf last game. Her play there didn't really work out for her, so if she did roll wolf again I wouldn't be surprised to see her change it up.

But if no one wants to join me on that lynch I'm considering waffling over to lotf.

 

[vetmedhead]

My sadness turned a corner yesterday, and it seems I'm starting to become my old self again. Wooooo, gotta love brain chemistry. Though reading this thread back provided a fascinating example of how different I am when I start to feel sad for no reason and then recover- the mood swap is fast but not rapid, and tends to last for weeks or months at a time. And that, kids, is what clinical, non-situational depression looks like in many people.

*******************
I'm currently in the middle of a few weeks of that sadness myself. Hoping I turn a corner soon as well. Glad you're feeling better.
*******************

 

[WildZoo]

And as I am typing these things apparently several others have the same idea. Nope on that then. I don't like these quick wagons.

 

[DVMDream]

Ok so yeah me questioning kata's moves means I'm supporting her. That wasn't a solid reason for your waffling on me

I didn't waffle on you. Seriously. WTF. Pay attention. I've been calling you suspicious for days and I'm referring to this post of yours....

What are your guys' thoughts on kata? Her defense seemed pretty convincing to me

Which I questioned you about already and you ignored my question.

 

[cheathac]

I didn't waffle on you. Seriously. WTF. Pay attention. I've been calling you suspicious for days and I'm referring to this post of yours....



Which I questioned you about already and you ignored my question.

Exactly my point. I mean waffle as in being suspicious of me not lynching and unlynching me. It was poorly worded but I mean that youre suspicious of me which you are. If your so suspicious.. lynch me then. I'll prove you wrong.

 

[Glammyre]

I have the PM item scent on the wind, currently using it today.

Confirm, she opened one with me.

also, random. why does it seem like everyone is pushing extra hard for lists from people? Maybe it's just because I haven't played for a while, but this didn't used to be a thing.

I think it's a newer thing that started in the basics game.

Not sold on kata...Zen is playing differently than last game when she was a wolf (quieter...)...not sure if this her village self or not though.

It's neither. This is me with finals/seminars/family taking up way more time than I expected.

 

[DVMDream]

If the word "bitch" sets you off this much I have some bad news about vet med, lol...

Only thing that I can say is that this moves cheat more village-y to me, because I'm pretty sure fellow wolves would have coached her in the general rules of sketch.

I even specifically said lynch was slow yesterday, not arguing that point at all. And I'm just saying it is very easy to say "so and so was obviously village-y," when we have mod confirmation that they were, in fact, village.

I never said he was obviously villagy... I said by the end of yesterday I was getting more comfortable with him possibly being village but given he was very wolfy the day prior, I wasn't going to fight back on the lynch...because, he was an egg that needed breaking. I'm not sure how else to explain that, but I never said he was obviously villagy because that wasn't actually how I felt.

Because I like my kata vote for today and I'll lynch you tomorrow. I can be suspicious of two people at once. You aren't even making any sense

 

[Trilt]

Actually, MJ's posts yesterday were very much villager MJ posts. But, the damage had already been done the previous day when he was posting very much like wolfy MJ.... so while by lynch closed I was more comfortable with MJ possibly being village, the damage had already been done and he was an egg that needed to be broken.

Felt like you were saying they read as obviously village. Apparently misreading.

 

[DVMDream]

Exactly my point. I mean waffle as in being suspicious of me not lynching and unlynching me. It was poorly worded but I mean that youre suspicious of me which you are. If your so suspicious.. lynch me then. I'll prove you wrong.

And you've still ignored my previous question

 

[Skimble]

Wait, you are lynching me for explaining that I wasn't posting much yesterday because I was busy, and right below it, you're explaining that you're not posting much today because you're busy?

My vote is staying where it is.

No, I'm saying the way you worded your busy post seemed odd to me. I said before I signed up for this game that I would be busy.

 

[DVMDream]

Felt like you were saying they read as obviously village. Apparently misreading.

Those are MJ village posts from what I've seen playing with him

Day prior = MJ wolf posts

What I was trying to say was that while his posts yesterday were making me feel better, the day prior had already done its damage. And I couldn't ignore that.

 

[Trilt]

I gotchu now. I tend to read your posts somewhat aggressively and it made me bristle at it more than I should.

 

[cheathac]

Because I like my kata vote for today and I'll lynch you tomorrow. I can be suspicious of two people at once. You aren't even making any sense

Ha well at least I know for a fact one of your suspicions is wrong. Why don't we try to focus on who is actually a wolf in this game?

 

[DVMDream]

I gotchu now. I tend to read your posts somewhat aggressively and it made me bristle at it more than I should.

I tend to post fairly straightforward and try not to attach any emotion. Tone is hard on Internet. I get it.

 

[DVMDream]

Ha well at least I know for a fact one of your suspicions is wrong. Why don't we try to focus on who is actually a wolf in this game?

Post some actual defense instead of beating around the bush, popping into thread only when your name is mentioned and actually try to make some sense and maybe my suspicion of you will improve. Until then, you're still suspicious and this post + ignoring my prior question is only making it worse

 

[Animal Midwife]

Ha well at least I know for a fact one of your suspicions is wrong. Why don't we try to focus on who is actually a wolf in this game?

We can't ever be 100% sure of that though without mod or seer confirmation. We can only judge by thoughts and actions. Who do you think is a wolf?

 

[cheathac]

We can't ever be 100% sure of that though without mod or seer confirmation. We can only judge by thoughts and actions. Who do you think is a wolf?

Well I was originally thinking Kata but she gave a much better defense than WZ has. Also need to hear more than LOFT. And @DVMDream You failed to see that I posted pretty early this morning without any mention of my name to get me going.... so pay attention

 

[DVMDream]

Well I was originally thinking Kata but she gave a much better defense than WZ has. Also need to hear more than LOFT. And @DVMDream You failed to see that I posted pretty early this morning without any mention of my name to get me going.... so pay attention

You still haven't addressed the question I asked of you....


I'll repeat it. If kata's defense convinced you, as you've now stated twice. Why are you still lynching her? Just want to be on the bandwagon when she comes up wolf so you look better?

 

[WildZoo]

Well I was originally thinking Kata but she gave a much better defense than WZ has.

Excuse you

 

[WildZoo]

And if you think kata's defense was so much better than mine, why the hell are you still voting for her instead of voting for me? 😵

Ummmm because there is still an hour since close? My style of play doesn't involve lynch then unlynch.. all the time. It takes me time to go through the posts and formulate thoughts. Since you're so hung up on it UNLYNCH KATA LYNCH WZ

 

[Animal Midwife]

Make a list of all the players and categorize them as village, neutral, or wolf. I think that will help you come to a better conclusion.

 

[Animal Midwife]

If I had a nickel for every time someone has encouraged a lynch vote onto themselves this game... 😉

 

[WildZoo]

So you'd rather wait to waffle until the last hour of lynch? Do you not see how this isn't exactly ideal?
You said kata's defense was convincing an hour and a half ago. But the way you phrased it read like you were waiting to see if others were going to hop off first before leaving the wagon. And I get the feeling you would have stayed on it until others left if DVMD hadn't pushed you here.

 

[WildZoo]

If I had a nickel for every time someone has encouraged a lynch vote onto themselves this game... 😉

Not that I want her to lynch me, I was just looking for some consistency. Lots of hedging, waiting for others to validate her reads, and not putting her money where her mouth is.

Just not sure if noob* in over her head or wolf

*Don't hurt me pippy

 

[cheathac]

Village - AM, DVM Dream, Trilt, Snowy


Neutral - Deva, Kata, Jil, VMH, 3M, Zen, LOTF


Wolfy - WZ, Pippy (still different mode of play then before, still thinking about changing lynch)

 

[cheathac]

Actually.. just unlynch Wz lynch pippy. I'm just finding your tone used and style of play vastly different from the last where you were a villager.

I always find this phrase awkward. "Wolves wouldn't let so and so do whatever".... umm people really don't have control over what others do. So I've never really liked the above way of thinking.

 

[cheathac]

@PippyPony have you been a wolf in any game you've played? How would you know how wolves play? Other than of course lynching "role" players.

 

[PippyPony]

Actually.. just unlynch Wz lynch pippy. I'm just finding your tone used and style of play vastly different from the last where you were a villager.

*sigh*. I defended you in that last game and you helped get me lynched D1. Apparently I don't learn very well.

 

[WildZoo]

@PippyPony have you been a wolf in any game you've played? How would you know how wolves play? Other than of course lynching "role" players.

She was a damn good wolf in Telenovela

 

[Skimble]

I'd like to hear more from kata.. as far as a defense. Not sure why she switched her lynch to MJ even though most people were leaning towards him so she shouldn't have needed to do it out of self preservation. UNlYNCH TRILT LYNCH KATA

Not defending Kata at all, but I didn't find her self preservation vote weird at all. It actually make sense to me. She was a close second with lots of people expressing that they thought she was shady.

I don't think most people are pushing for lists, some of us just feel most comfortable making lists. Other people question people or only talk about their top suspicions. Mainly whatever works that we can analyze you as village/wolf and compare our own reads, because general fluff posts do nothing for the village.

But some people are pushing for lists and i admit, that can be super annoying.

If the word "bitch" sets you off this much I have some bad news about vet med, lol...

Only thing that I can say is that this moves cheat more village-y to me, because I'm pretty sure fellow wolves would have coached her in the general rules of sketch.

As I said before, she has had lots of time to say how busy she is but very little to respond to things or give reads... the same thing other people are getting questioned for. Am I missing something here?

As someone that has had a child, I think LotF was a bit delusional to think she'd be able to properly contribute immediately after giving birth. So I don't find her lack of posting content to be all that weird. Pregnancy, giving birth and caring for a newborn really frazzles your brain in ways you couldn't comprehend unless you've experienced it.

Make a list of all the players and categorize them as village, neutral, or wolf. I think that will help you come to a better conclusion.

And oh look! Someone pushing for a list...

 

[PippyPony]

@PippyPony have you been a wolf in any game you've played? How would you know how wolves play? Other than of course lynching "role" players.

I was a wolf a couple of games back.

 

[cheathac]

She was a damn good wolf in Telenova

How did her style of play compare to what it is now?

 

[WildZoo]

I always find this phrase awkward. "Wolves wouldn't let so and so do whatever".... umm people really don't have control over what others do. So I've never really liked the above way of thinking.

Yup, you can only assist so much. But like I said I feel like other wolves (if they've been around at all today) would have see the crash and burn coming and would have voted for her by now for that sweet village cred. Which is the main reason why I'm not going there.

 

[PippyPony]

She was a damn good wolf in Telenova

Flattering, but I think I was actually a pretty crap wolf -- even with being cleared by all kinds of game mechanics, I would have gotten lynched right after Ny if I hadn't played the pity card with STL. You were there, you saw the impending disaster lol

 

[DVMDream]

If she is a wolf, why would they vote for her if she currently has no votes? I guess that doesn't make much sense to me.

Again all, WIFOM
