So both wolves were arguably bad guys in the show, re reading the opening mod write up, this caught my eye at the beginning, and is starting to make sense.



If I were writing that’s as a mod, I would say “vice versa” or something to show that good guys could be wolves as well....so I am guessing that it was on purpose,,,,i.e. bad guys can be villagers but good guys can’t be wolves. Just a theory.

it does seem like they're trying to follow lore as much as they can in the game without totally breaking it, this makes some sense to me
 
@Crayola227 Do you have a list of players from most to least wolfy? Because it's really weird to me how you're quoting all these posts out of order. I know you're not isoing...

I'm doing them mostly in order, except where I hit reply, see one of you have posted to me, and choose to try to reply as I've been interrupted in my PbPa

I told you PbPa is my typical process for doing so

No, I'm not a big fan of ISO although I usually do it when my memory needs the jog on details (I find PbPa and ISO hard to do on my laptop.)

I am getting caught up and have the chance so I'm doing a PbPa since the last lynch (less posts to work through too now that less players) to try to pin down my leans while I have the chance now

but I don't have the time to sit here and get interrogated, sorry
 
Did the writeup imply anything the night that kc apparently attacked Pippy and was shot? I don't remember reading anything.

I suppose there's the chance all wolves are dead and we just need to kill any remaining zombies, but as far as I remember, anyone left was either not attacked or saved through amputation.

this is wolfy to me

Isn't the point of all this so you can show people what you're thinking? Why does me asking for clarification upset you?
 
I am trying to decide if I should be reading much into jboo's apparent reluctance to vote to lynch AM. I mentioned that I was worried about a tie with AM if I switched from cray to her unless jboo switched to AM. The rational thing for jboo to have done would be to make that switch and eliminate the chance they get involved in a tie but that didn't happen. Is it because she didn't realize I had given her a way out of danger or isit because she had a reason not to want AM dead?

very good point, this makes me feel that much better about my AM vote

this makes me lean more village on dpmd and less so on sporty as a result, we'll see

Also, why vote before analyzing? It wasn't 5 minutes before lynch close with an intense tie.

...you see how I'm talking about Sporty, right?

sorry, I feel really frustrated that I can't just play the way I typically like to play, I set a stupid high standard for myself and then I get really stressed when I can't give it 100% because I'm actually having leaving the house and living life 🙂nailbiting: don't make me go out there! weird things happen!)

my play suffers and then people are like why why why cray

But that's a reasonable reaction, isn't it? I mean, if even you know your playstyle will change, why wouldn't others notice and comment?

Why would you need more bullets? I have a pistol and one bullet,,..never used them and I still have them. This is suspicious to me. I am happy with my vote,


Also your defensive response to a contingent vote sounded like a wolf late in game afraid of losing.

the original reason for SOV's vote was weak, this is a bit better reasoning, but +/- if genny or SOV are wolves going by it

not sure if SOV is tunneling or pushing a mislynch, keeping an eye there
 
I must have missed the Sporty question. I don't really have particularly wolfy feels for Sporty. But nothing village either. I think AM and Skimble are the two I get most feels from.

Agreed, except about Sporty. I think that's partly why I'm not loving the genny lynch. The reasoning for genny is weak. Also, she sounds nothing at all like wolfy genny. It will be total egg on my face if wrong, but I think I'm getting a feel for reading her

Day 6:
Being a leader means you take all the credit, or all of the blame. Rick was the one calling the shots for as long as anyone could remember, but maybe it was time that he let someone else take the lead on this next choice. He looked at his second-hand man and asked, "What do you think?", "I think Maggie is to blame. . ." he responded.

They stormed her house and pulled her out into the courtyard, "Rick! What the hell is going on?". "I'm sorry, but we've all done what we have had to do to stay alive, and this situation is no different. We have reasons to believe that you are at fault." But before Maggie was even given a chance to respond, Rick's right hand man shot her in between the eyes.

Dead is
Genny, who was Maggie and a vanillager

You are my top vote for reasons stated so I put that out there first before my friend can demand I get off my laptop and leave. However, yes, I would love to analyze the entire situation and come up with more suspects in order. So I'm doing what I can.

As it is, I will be able to finish replaying and catching up, but I'll have to consolidate and continue the list after I get back from dinner.

Okay, but every time you vote for me, then you spend the rest of your posts talking about how everyone else is wolfy. And now you're saying people with similar reads to myself are village too.

of course they comment, but if I'm already frustrated, won't feeling like I'm getting heat for real life just add to it? I get that's the reality of the game. I think we all get that the reality of the game is frustrating a lot, lol

I don't think it'd be fair for you to vote for me, but not allow me to question you though.

Okay, but every time you vote for me, then you spend the rest of your posts talking about how everyone else is wolfy. And now you're saying people with similar reads to myself are village too.

I've said why you, but I agree that I would like to have a list of other people in order, so of course after saying why you and voting, I'm going to continue to discuss why others seem wolfy/not wolfy

it's not even just that, also just people's thoughts on the game

not sure why you're trying to fight with me about what is just basic concepts of attempting decent gameplay

or, I should talk about you only and then stop? but you think I should discuss others

I agree, discuss others, and then that's weird to you

wolves hate it when villagers agree, and I tend to be contrary enough as it is as a player, so I don't see why I need to try to disagree with other people, why do you think I should?

not to mention, just because two players agree (it's not hard for wolves to agree with villagers) doesn't make a wolfy one less wolfy for agreeing with someone villagery

It's more like you talk about me for one post to vote then never attempt to confront me again. Not one post today you quoted was from me. I think you quoted everyone else. Also, if it's basic concepts of decent gameplay, why is it wolfy when I do it?

I'm just point put that the very reasons you're voting for me you claim are villagey things in all your other posts. It's not lining up.

lol, we're not going to see eye to eye about your wolfiness no matter what, that's what I learned from the other games where you were wolf

I'll try to address this later

so, I did my best today to carry out my game duties, I will try to do more when I get home from the brewery (blue cheese fries for dinner!)
 
I was recommending about killing the zombies early in game, but i only got ammo a couple,of,days ago...so your memory is wrong.
Also, I was the person who came out as vanillager before we knew there was such a thing. A wolf couldn’t have known that...so you are wasting your time there..
Weeeell I was thinking about this. You "came out as a vanillager" by saying you thought items would be important and you were surprised your character meant you didn't have an ability that was not item-based.

Those are not really the same thing. Afaik wolves in this game have not had extra abilities, so it would be safe for wolves to claim vanillager and/or comment on the game being item-heavy.

I'm not totally discounting what you're saying here, I'm just saying I don't think that's exactly a rock solid defense.
 
Why night one?

Is it heavy with 4 wolves and chaos... if lots of the Villagers have weapons, a seer, and a protector, plus medical treatment?

By having two auto conversions plus a chaos conversion in place, we truly start at 11:4:1.

That makes the game 40% non-village with two mislynches because we never really had those two extra villagers. (Faster for every successful chaos conversion.) Also, would hit lylo around the same time if no wolves had been lynched by that point. Items and PRs don't really matter if they can be converted at any point to chaos/wolves. Village rezzes is what balances out conversions.

Not sure that this specific scenario would have to happen N1. I was running a 1 original; 2 converts scenario initially.
No, villagers being able to continually defend themselves is what balances out some of that bonkers-ness.

Like, say every villager in this game had ammo. That's like...really, really difficult to work with for wolves and for chaos because their main mechanisms for wiping out villagers is taken away and could actually get them killed instead.
 
on websites outside of SDN people have to have played a certain number of games before being able to mod
I see @StayingPositive2017 already ninja'd me with this

Where tf did this come from? You mad because you feel like the game is stacked against you or something, cray?

Because I have been there, I understand those feels, but more so when I think I am losing than when I am feeling decent about my chances. And afaik wolves are losing at this point in time. Maybe not. But if I were to venture a guess.

sorry, I feel really frustrated that I can't just play the way I typically like to play, I set a stupid high standard for myself and then I get really stressed when I can't give it 100% because I'm actually having leaving the house and living life 🙂nailbiting: don't make me go out there! weird things happen!)

my play suffers and then people are like why why why cray
And ngl this sounds 100% like your wolf attitude.
 
Am almost tempted to vote for cray based off of rage-quit style attitude when wolves are losing, but idk, that could also be real life.

Want to hear more from dpmd tomorrow. We're in end game; I would think the confusion over mechanics and nicknames and such would be cleared up enough by this point to have stronger feels than just joining a bandwagon.

Jil is not striking me as particularly wolfy, but I thought she seemed wolfy when I was drunk last night and I'm arguably a better player then, so...
 
Okay, I've skimmed only briefly and seen my name mentioned a hecking bunch (probs for good reason), but haven't found what people feel about me because skimming

I know I liked a thing Pippy? Said earlier today, possibly acknowledging the Pipoy versus Jimble mix up I made. So yes. That was my bad.

Do I have any freaking clue what to think about anyone? Heck no.

Could go dpmd again but part of me really thinks that one of the veterans is just playing a good wolf this game. Also keep forgetting that SOV is still in the game, despite seeing posts now and again.

I've been working the last bagillion hours, so I'm gonna try to catch up and answer the questions people have apparently asked me tomorrow morning. If anyone feels like reiterating to save me trouble, go for it, but I don't expect it.

Definitely interested to see what happens this night cycle though.
