Sorry about tunneling you incorrectly last game in the dead chat

###reverie lawpy### thanks for helping me out last game!
I’m going to rev barks
what makes you think it's a responsibility?
why reverie someone you have difficulty reading?
I'm fairly certain you already know the answer to this question.
I would like to think I can read Barks better after last game. She also has done really well with her PRs in the past games I've played with her which is also why I'm voting for her.

Empowering someone sounds like giving them more responsibility to me

Why are you fairly certain of that? Why would I ask a question I already know the answer to? Do you know the answer?
I'd have to have short-term memory loss to assume otherwise. You've already made it clear in your posts you know the answer. Don't ask filler questions.
Please do not tell me what to do. Thank you.

I will point out what I please. You're welcome.
Are you referring to the alternate universe in which there is a man with the powers of a spider who has an uncle named Ben?

Unlikely.
Yikes guys. Awfully aggressive awfully quickly. Not a whole lot has happened yet. Ziggy, you are asking lots of questions-some more useful than others. And the same can be said about AM I guess. You are voting block AM right now too. Is this all just residual saltiness from the last game?
I've asked exactly one question lol
lol what is even happening right now
What exactly have you seen that is aggressive? So far I have seen mostly cordial interactions so I find this an interesting comment. Perhaps you are letting biases of previous lives influence your perspective on what is currently occurring.
No, it is not residual saltiness. I misinterpreted the way that votes work. I thought my block vote would merely "cancel out" AM's self vote. I do not want her to be the reverie, but I don't necessarily want her to be blocked either. I am contemplating changing my vote, but as you have said, not much has occurred and thus it is difficult for me to know who I would like to reverie or block. I have time to contemplate.
Also, in reference to AM and Barks, it appears they may follow the philosophical teachings of Uncle Ben. I have not read his theories extensively but I do recall him stating "with great power comes great responsibility". It seems AM is perhaps not familiar with his teachings, but I think she may agree with them.

For getting me into this game and being right that I would probably like it.
Also your avatar reminds me of Mercy, who used to be my OW main. 😍

I think it vaguely fits the unknown theme based on the opening story. So I'm 4/4 since Howwrses, Ireland, Panum, and this one!
The interaction between you and AM feels quippy/snappy. I said aggressive, not because it was abnormal, or non-village- just because it read a little snappy. Could be the internet and tone issues. Could be reading into stuff from other games, but still a thought I had that I felt like sharing.
I will say, you were a little more quiet at the beginning when you wolfed, so I'm keeping that in mind. Plus, if I'm gonna let anything bias me, it'll be your early death last time.
Care to address why you keep talking about spiderman?
Side note, this game looks like a lot of fun/really in depth write ups. Its gonna be like reading a book!
Yeah that's usually how their interactions go so it doesn't feel out of the norm for them
I thought this was clear but I will add clarity because I do like teaching.
Initially, just curious how she came to the conclusion that whoever was revered would get responsibility. I took it as an alteration/upgrade to someone's power, the reverse of the blocking. This could be incorrect however.
I also think asking a noob if they are ready for more responsibility is a bit condescending imo.
For some reason, AM seemed to think I knew the answer to my question, which is false. Generally I dont ask questions if I know the answer. What would be the point of it?
I believed AM was referencing this quote when she stated I should already know the reverie will get more responsibility. However, I never said this. I said power. Her equating power with responsibility reminded me of the philosophies of Uncle Ben.
Here, I can see barks also thinks power is similar to responsibility.
I read it as a much more playful/joking comment

The blocking is temporary. Grammatically that sentence in the write-up does not indicate that the reverie is. Plus, 5 turns is a long time. Could be your whole life.
Is an upgrade to someone's power not a responsibility? I am certain you could fathom some roles (or, rather, a particular affiliation) that you would not like to have any additional power.
Your musings resemble that of an attorney. Are we to believe there is no relationship between power and responsibility?

Not necessarily. It's all a matter of perspective.
Of course there are. Hence my vote. I think it is interesting so far I am the only one using a block, not a reverie.
I wouldn't say that. I believe that in certain contexts, more power may be more responsibility. In others, there may not be. I see responsibility as something a good person has. Ie the responsibility to have your actions benefit others in a positive way. If more power is given to those with mal-intent, is it responsibility given?
With that said, I am going to
unblock AM
block pip
I remember a certain time she wanted more power for herself and voted this way. but she did not have good intentions.
What are the benefits of blocking today over a reverie?
I'm a bit busy but just want to point out that I don't think Miz is a noob. I'd reserve the noob term for people who are actually new to WW as opposed to being new on SDN.

She got me into the games and shes a good player, so I'll toss my vote here

Wow I am feeling overwhelmed by this game already. Glad I have another day to read that write up again
By today are you referring to 4/7 or the day that goes until either 4/9 or 4/10?
I am unsure of the possible ramifications of either. Is it worse to give more power to someone nefarious, or take power away from someone virtuous?
Block Coop while I process everything. This felt like trying not to win the vote for fear of seering
I'll go with

I'll call everyone a noob if I feel like it
By today in a WW context, I always mean the duration of a day cycle.

Sketch points to you. Why on earth are you making a mountain out of this molehill. Super weird thing to focus on AM wording like that. It was pretty clear she was just asking in the general sense.
Sketch points to you for continuing the above, pointless line of questioning.
Also yes thank you for pointing out something but offering no analysis yourself.
What exactly was this post supposed to accomplish besides some light fishing?
Novel idea: We block and reverie the same person.
Gives us a couple of days to evaluate (on thread or via abilities) the person we reverie. That way no major damage is done if we inadvertently power up a wolf.
Downside is, it also gives wolves multiple chances to take out the Reverie'd player with out the effects of the Reverie being utilized.
Doesn't that also give the person the crutch of "oh I would find wolves if I still had my power" as a wolf and an excuse to still live over other players as they'd be essentially vanilla? 5 days is pretty long even with an average deathrate.
Much appreciated

Yes, but I agree with this:
Le Miz and Jahboi are new and none of us know how to read them. I'd rather reverie go to someone whose metas we are familiar with.
I see what you mean but no, they don't need abilities or powers to develop reads and give us other ways of evaluating them.
What, gleaning information from the way people vote? That's crazy talk.
Because I thought it was a goofy thing for her to ask lol
Now who's making the mountain out of it? 😉

As an aside, iirc the time when I did that before, we didn't have our roles yet, so at the time I cast my mayor vote for myself, I didn't know I was a wolf.
@Rozzieray (if she's still around) would agree with me
Every time I see anything about Sailor Moon I think of the Barenaked Ladies song (One Week) where they say Sailor Moon used to "make them think the wrong thing" and then remember that all the characters in that show were like 14 and it creeps me out. Anyway,
