okay i've been busy overanalyzing the votes from last night via Shorty's fancy tracker and these are some rambling takeaways from the votes i found most interesting.
waffle party/late votes
Dina - moved her vote twice in ways that both protected Sporty at times when she was tied for the lead. The first move could also have been protective of genny (or cubs, if her initial vote there was a beep beep). As others have pointed out, this seems a bit too obvious for a wolf, though it’s possible if other packmate(s) weren’t active enough at close that Dina felt she had to do it.
April - Points have been made about she could be a wolf “baiting” Dina to join her, but Dina seems defensive of this idea. If a protective move, Sporty or Bob were leading at the time.
Sporty - self prez is NAI, more interested in what others movement suggests about their thoughts on her
Mel - very late vote that put sporty into a tie with bob (therefore could be an attempt to protect bob). Bob has been oddly defensive of Mel, so this is interesting to me. If SP is village this becomes extra concerning for me.
other votes i find interesting
Cray - sat on sporty since start of D1. One thing cray told me when we wolfed together is that she likes to pick a person to make an enemy of, and I worried early on that this might be what’s happening here. The long late night posts from cray felt in line with this (particulary #487) - she made some good points but they felt almost over-explainy for her this early in the game, different from her usual PBP
Genny - sat on MsP since game start, claims to have been away at close but was at least joke posting within 30 min of close when MsP had already appeared
vote breakdown by wagon size, for later reference:
- Alley wagon: pleasey (first on, cubs only leading wagon at time, lots of single votes), April (waffle), Dina (waffle), Sporty (self-prez)
- smaller wagons: Cray, MsP, Mel (all on Sporty); Cubs, me (on genny); Shorty, AM (on bob)
- single votes: Alley (cubs), Genny (MsP), Bob (April),
