Ultimate Werewolf

[bigred]

P.S.

Anyone else think that second cat kinda looks like Hitler? Not cool, self. Not cool.

[aubreymcfate]

Hmmmmm.... I quite like lynching Daven, even though he has a point about mmm.

Mmm's response seems legit coming from him, but it's still standard if he is flying solo.

I think he needs to go. And if he is actually trying to wave a come get me flag, kudos on the research.

To be clear he's sold nd he's a villager but he has to go for pulling the trick in the first place.

mmm

wat.

also regarding Rong:

-- First post is about needing to google the roles, followed by speculation. This is kind of neutral, but rong is shrewd enough to play this card right if he's a wolf.

-- Jumped on MMM 'cause MMM made himself super easy target. There must be at least one wolf taking advantage of that.


Hmmmmmm.

I really hate day 1, or maybe I just really hate to think too hard. WW is clearly the game for me!

ok more figurative beard twirling as i parse through this shit

[bigred]

LOL. I summon you, Aubreychu

[aubreymcfate]

the visual summation of all my internet fights, applies here too

[Keybored]

Who IS THIS GUY/GAL?
OMFG, yur crackin' me up!
Thanks for the levity Bigred, just when we needed it most.
Now I'm gonna go see who you are...

[Keybored]

Shit...how did, like, 20 posts pop up while I typed 20 words????

[Keybored]

Raise the lights, Cue the music: Enter, Aubrey.
Golf clap applause.

...and she had me at the Beard Stroke innuendo.

Bravo, Bravo!
Encore?
Merci

[aubreymcfate]

I have no real reads *sigh*

ong would be more tense and less carefree if he was a wolf, which i base on my experience wolfing with him.

i think dhub was suspicious at first bc of level 0 spewyness but general consensus seems to find this a reason he is villagery, so i'm gonna stick with that for time being. still, the spewers have an easier time wolfing bc of it, I think...

[aubreymcfate]

i meant to say i thought dhub was suspicious at first. important distinction bc "think" implies i currently think his initial posting was suspicious, but in retrospect, after reading whole thread, i don't necessarily think that.

[aubreymcfate]

you know what i kind of fucked up the above post too with my wording but i stopped caring (not enough to not make this post though)

[Keybored]

Also, did you know you don't have to use the mobile version when browsing this site from your phone? I didn't. I didn't figure it out until I gave up trying to load page 1 and it loaded page 2 instead like 20 times.

Are you freakin kidding me?? This has been the bane of my mobile WW existence! Can't stand that stupid mobile version. Arrrrg
Good news: I can carry this madness with me now.
Bad news: My morning movement will last, well, much longer than humanly necessary.
Thanks 'red for giving me a reason to put down the crossword puzzle...

[OngBonga]

GFY to ong for the bigred vote. Why not communicate via pictures?

[OngBonga]

Hi bigred and aubrey. Have some villager points for sounding like villagers.

rescind

[aubreymcfate]

keep it up and you might get the other hippie sweater clad tit

[OngBonga]

haha that sentence can be read in more than one way. I'm choosing to read it the wrong way.

[aubreymcfate]

anyway yeah, I don't know, I'm out for tonight. we'll see what tomorrow brings after class (so like 9pm EST).

although I should probably vote... days are 72 hours yeah?

for now I will jump on the mmm bandwagon because I am curious to see what comes of that -- people's suspicions of him were the most founded, I thought -- and the lynch will be revealing either way since there was so much discussion of him.

lynch mmm

i might be able to check in tomorrow during work so that's not necessarily fixed

[BankItDrew]

Gonna make this real easy.

lynch mmm

[baudib]

Good to see BigRed and Aubrey charging in dropping hot reads. Glad to see you both.

Are we really gonna just maj MMM here and end the day early? Seems like a mistake.

I get that MMM started awfully and his open is quite unconventional. Having seen and having been responsible for probably more FPS in the past month than FTR ever gets, I'm pretty sure he's gonna be slightly greater than rand to be villager. His Cursed equity is pretty significant though, and that's possibly our greatest late-game threat.

His response to the pressure has been pretty damn villagery IMO.

[baudib]

I think it is convenient that Wuf has decreed he won't really be participating or engaging with anyone, that he'll just talk fluff/generic WW 101 strategy and then pop in to tell us who we should kill. That doesn't sound wolfy at all right.

I invite you all to reread Daven, it won't take long. His thoughtful analysis and sharp-minded attacks are exactly what we expect from the aggressive wolfhunter Daven...oh wait, no they're not at all. He comes in, throws a vote on Dhuber, who was easily the most villagery person at the start of the game, with no explanation. Then says he's thinking of rescinding and getting onto Ong...again no explanation. Immediately after that, he says nothing has stood out so far, even though he saw fit to arguably lynch 2 people. Then decides it's Monstr/Wuf out of the blue, declares that MMM is so likely to be Cursed he has to die, and then votes Wuf.

This isn't hunting, this isn't even voting to pressure people, it's trying to throw a bunch of shit up against the wall and seeing if anything can stick.

[daven]

re mmm lynch:

the lynch will be revealing either way since there was so much discussion of him.

lynch mmm

disagree. If he's not a vanilla-wolf then the wolves don't know his role.

lol nice.
there isn't much to go on yet, and the mmm fps means that has unfortunately become the focus.
the monstr/wuf decision wasn't out of the blue, it's based on feel during readthroughs.
I am happy to lynch any of monstr/wuf/mmm, i'd prefer wuf cos i think he's a normal wolf. Based on limited data obviously...
re throwing shit at people and seeing what sticks, yep. That's a part of my wolf-hunting approach when i have not much else to go on.

[bigred]

LOL. Villager Aubrey comes straight after me when I lynch her. Read past games.

Wolf Aubrey shows up FOR ACTIVENESS but ignores my lynch and provides some mild content. We got one boys! Cooties confirmed, wolf suspected.

[baudib]

too many wolves, too many beetlejuices

[OngBonga]

Did anyone say my name?

[bigred]

Cooties confirmed, wolf suspected.

This is how I approach all relationships. Why doesn't anyone talk to me?

[baudib]

I said ur mom's name.

[bigred]

The nest grows larger.

[baudib]

BigRed is...active...

This makes me smile.

who wants to form an alliance ???

[Luco]

largecrimson and andymcnab have arrived and jumped straight in, awesome

Ong has been quite trolly and aloof this game and it reminds me of how he was sullen all through last game (as a wolf), in that it could just be a persona that he's using to mask his true intentions. It's like he's playing the IDGAF line a little too hard at times.

[baudib]

afaict there are more people playing their wolf game than we have wolves + cursed.

is problem.

[rong]

I don't get Aubrey's comments about me in her first post.

She initially says I just posted a question and then jumped on the mmm bw. That's not quite true. I initially said he seemed villagery and only changed my stance after reading daven's comment. Given the description of me lately as low hanging fruit and the fact she only chimed in when her whereabouts were questioned she seems a little wolfy to me. That could just be an omg she called me wolfy she must be a wolf instinctive reaction though.

[rong]

And it's more that there were other things going on and she must have read quite a bit of the thread to have got to the point where I'd changed my stance on mmm yet that was the first thing she chose to comment on.

[rong]

Other thoughts:
wuf seems villagery and I really don't like ongs reaction to mmm questioning him about my stance on mmm in that he chose to agree with me rather than taking the opportunity to put pressure on me which he could very easily have done.

[Luco]

Good to see BigRed and Aubrey charging in dropping hot reads. Glad to see you both.

His response to the pressure has been pretty damn villagery IMO.

Baud is the new SDM. Mojo is like a temporary SDM, once he stopped derping he pulled up on the stick quite a bit really. I can't see him making that lone wolf joke post if he was full wolf either. Besides, derpy funtimes MMM sounds way cooler than old man rah rah stop posting fluff this is srs MMM so if he is vanillager it's not a change that I'd want to discourage

[Hoopy]

Vote Count 1.2

MMM - 6 (keith, wuf, rong, dhuber, aubrey, BID)
daven - 2 (baudib, keybored)
wuf - 1 (MMM)
monstrman - 1 (gabe)
aubrey - 1 (bigred)

Double check it folks.

9 votes to lynch!

[Hoopy]

bigred and aubrey have arrived, now we're one big dysfunctional family!

[Hoopy]

Baud and Rilla lockwolf team! Bank it, count it, pound it like Hoopy's mam

[dhubermex]

To baudib,

I disagree with Post #243 and agree with post #244.

It's true that MMM has been more Villagery following Page #1, but are you arguing he's not the best Day #1 lynch candidate? I don't see anyone else that's near as compelling at this time. Ong, wuf, gabe and daven are suspcious to me, but none stick out the way MMM does for the reasons I've already outlined. Like you say... too many Wolves.

Personally I find MMM's style confusing, which makes me uncomfortable about my reads on him, but there's more than enough evidence to lay a lynch down even considering he was third on my could-be Wolf list last match after Ong/Keybored.

wuf has the most sincere posts besides mine... I just don't know if that's a Wolf tactic or not. If any 2 out of you, Keybored, Keith, or Luco have someone else you specifically who you think fits better than MMM for Day #1 lynch then let me know and I'll work with either of you at this time assuming it's someone on my own "suspicious" list. Keith's arguments for MMM lynch make the most sense to me. I may be playing "Level 0" but I don't believe that's such a bad thing if my analysis is correct... that if we put all players' Levels on a scale of 0-10 they'd be well spread out. "Level 0" is only a highly-flawed style if a lot of players are at "Level 1" in my opinion. Much higher level thinking is not effective against much lower level thinking from what I've seen.

[Hoopy]

Hoopy sure seems wolfy. Seems to know everything about the game.

[dhubermex]

Okay I just saw the Vote Recap in Post #262. You and Keybored are both on daven. As you've stated there's nothing of sustenance in daven's posts. Keith, what are your thoughts on me switching from MMM to daven lynch? If Keith isn't big-time against it, I'll switch.

[dhubermex]

Sorry for the hyper-posting. Luco, I am also interested in knowing if you're more keen on an MMM lynch or if you'd prefer daven or someone else.

[Luco]

I don't get Aubrey's comments about me in her first post.

She initially says I just posted a question and then jumped on the mmm bw. That's not quite true. I initially said he seemed villagery and only changed my stance after reading daven's comment.

And it's more that there were other things going on and she must have read quite a bit of the thread to have got to the point where I'd changed my stance on mmm yet that was the first thing she chose to comment on.

Rong, your comment about how you thought MMM was villager but you were going to lynch him anyway got my attention as well, but I think on balance you're more likely to say that as a villager than wolf. With regards to the aubrey beetlejuice, I'm leaning the other way to you - I think a wolf would be less likely to hop in within 10 minutes of their name being mentioned if they were aware of the beetlejuice trope. Also she isn't afraid to post as a wolf.

I find the second post more agreeable though

[Luco]

Sorry for the hyper-posting. Luco, I am also interested in knowing if you're more keen on an MMM lynch or if you'd prefer daven or someone else.

Not keen on MMM b/c I think he's cursed at best, unlikely full wolf. You and baud are the only ones singing villager to me right now and monstr gets a d1 pass as prev stated, I'm happy lynching anyone else. Daven is prob a good pick.

[Luco]

Dhuber why do you think keith is a villager? I'm not enamoured with either of his two posts

[Hoopy]

aubreychu uses cootie wave!

It's super effective!

bigredmon has fainted!

aubreychu gained 3exp!

[dhubermex]

Dhuber why do you think keith is a villager? I'm not enamoured with either of his two posts

I am. Post #29 is low on content but straight-forward enough. Post #151 I agree with wholeheartedly.

[dhubermex]

Except the part about the Tough Guy, but still... makes perfect sense, right?

[Keith]

tough guy comment - i missed hoopy's post saying that tough guy doesn't know that they are the tough guy. Read it with MMM knowing they are the tough guy and it makes sense in the light of MMM saying he was trying to reaction test. Since MMM doesn't know that he is the tough guy , that bit is wrong .

[Keith]

I can certainly see ongwolf posting these comments , trouble is he'd post them as a villager too. When I read the first one , i was tempted to lynch him just for the lols.As for MMM , my post was intended to test his mettle, and it looks like its still fragile. NO villager jokes about having a solo win condition , especially in a game where there is one player who knows that he has a solo win condition and needs to get the wolves to eat him. After last game the wolves are never going to eat him if he is a vanillager .As a cursed villager he is better for the wolves to keep around leading to a late game eat and a sudden big change in the villager:wolf ratio. If he is the cursed villager its a bonus lynch as it means that our specials are still alive and it will be one less wolf able to influence wagons and avoids the endgame danger of him being eaten.
the danger is that 5v:2w with angel still alive ,angel would have to protect MMM in case he's recruitable.wolves eat him and its blocked, 5v vs 2w going into next day lynch a villager 4v vs 2w and that night MMM gets converted 3v vs 3w and game over. if angel doesn't protect MMM then he gets eaten without the block and then its 4v vs 3w and the wolves can wagon through any mislynch vote.

Luco , which part of that don't you agree with ? if he's part wolf he is not a village special and makes sure that the specials survive day 1.

[Luco]

Luco , which part of that don't you agree with ? if he's part wolf he is not a village special and makes sure that the specials survive day 1.

Keith I'm doing a read through while working at the moment but all I said was I'm not enamoured aka in love with your posts, because I could see you making all those points you made as either W or V.

You do raise a good point in that he has already claimed vanilla villager so we def aren't hitting a special with him, but I don't see why angel would have to protect him especially as angel is a one-shot this game

[OngBonga]

Aw bless rong doesn't like my reaction to mojo laming a vague question at him. It's kinda cute that dan is still trying to read me when he knows he sucks at doing so. I've given up trying to read him.

And luco thinks I'm wolfy? Well that should prove to you I'm a villager, right?

[bigred]

aubreychu uses cootie wave!

It's super effective!

bigredmon has fainted!

aubreychu gained 3exp!

What?!? Who sold me this fake cootie shot.

[OngBonga]

So...

mojo asked me what I think of rong's comment that he thought mojo was villager who had to die, and within a minute or two I responded saying that I agreed with him. Mojo hasn't posted since. Has he given up because he knows his lynch is inevitable? That's much more likely to be wolf than village. I'd expect villager mojo to shrug his shoulders and acknowledge that he probably deserves a d1 lynch this game blah blah. But he didn't say anything like that, instead he's gone quiet while the votes clock uo.

lynch mojo

I believe that's L-2

[Luco]

And luco thinks I'm wolfy? Well that should prove to you I'm a villager, right?

Pfff, even a busted clock is right twice a day

[dhubermex]

but I don't see why angel would have to protect him especially as angel is a one-shot this game

Given the slim chance Angel (Priest) gets a successful protect early-game, Keith's scenarios make sense, Luco. Am I missing something here? Why don't you see why Angel would have to protect him given his Page #1 posts? If he sulks like a Wolf or Wolf-alignment, then more than random percentage he's a Wolf, right?

At "Level 0" this seems like an obvious Wolf-ploy to throw suspicion onto someone a Wolf knows is a Villager? Could it be some of my early suspicions are correct and you've been sent to throw suspicion on Keith?

I'm no longer working with Luco until there's a satisfactory resolution to why he doesn't see the logic behind Keith's MMM arguments. I'm not looking for "enamored," but rather correct/incorrect analysis.

I misread his post, hes right that there is a point where the numbers dictate that mmm be protected. my bad.

[Luco]

Ok. Still not happy with MMM’s initial spazz, including his comments about baud’s activity and how he ‘did a full read through’ after 20 posts.

#116

I'm not worried about Monstr. I'm sure I'll be able to clear him by D2 if he's a villager. He has about a billion villager tells and anyway, he is the GOAT at clearing himself and a terrible wolf (allegedly).

Still want Gabe to comment on this

Where is monstrmash? I want to see some of these billion tells

Keybored I’m back and forth on, some posts better than others

Hmm, JKDS and I could have just got off on the wrong foot. Regardless I’m not ready to jump into bed with him just yet

#137 MMM reverts to type and says he was deliberately spewing. Tonally it’s a good post, I mean the logic is flawed but the way his post assumes that villagers would just automagically get inside his head and see through his ruse strikes me as an insular view, and insular is often villager.

#151 keith’s biggest contribution so far, I can read this either way I guess

In comes daven. Not a lot here to grab on to. #160:

wuf/monstr/??
mmm's claimed gambit pretty much means we have to lynch him early unfortunately

Daven, surely it’s only unfortunate if he’s telling the truth?

#161 baud thinks rilla is playing. In fairness, I did too for a while – it wasn’t until I did a ‘who hasn’t checked in’ that I realised he wasn’t

#167

RE: MMM. I like the lynch even more now. The claim that he was looking for a reaction is scrambling. He's probably just the cursed villager and got caught.

Clarification on "smart player being nub wolf": it's with the thing of playing loose and doubling down, encouraging people. We say "you're acting weird" and a smart player/nub wolf often says "hell ya I am foo". Not everybody does it, but it has been done

As for MMM's looseness, I recall being looser when I was cursed. It's because you know you're not playing for the village and your only real goals are to obstruct the village and get figured out by the wolves

Interesting take on cursed role from someone with cursed experience, it could explain MMM’s play.

#169 Bid’s first post of note. He calls gabe’s post long winded but I didn’t think it felt long winded? He agrees with me that monstr should get a d1 pass and says it might be ‘weird thinking’. I thought it so it’s not weird, his thinking his thinking (which echoes my thinking) is weird is weird. Both bid and monstr are playing a low key d1, out of sight out of mind

#174 gabe not buying what mojo is selling. Also moans that nobody listens to him when he dies. It’s a superb point, especially if he’s nommed rather than lynched.

#177

Daven's entire content (and this is it, folks) screams wolf to me.
First 3 posts were rapidfire hipshots that make no sense from a V perspective.
Next 2 are muck.
#6 weakly questions my original poke at him.
Last one puts noose on wuf/monstah outta nowhere?
But then claims we gotta hang MMM instead??

This is NOT a vanilla Daven!
Lynch Daven

Decent post, I can’t remember how much key has seen of villager daven though

#178 in response to baud’s rilla slip

FFS, Baud...this is the kinda shit that gets you hammered every game here. Not the sole reason, but a hang-nail in the coffin. C'mon, man! I was just beginning to warm up to you again...

As I said I slipped on rilla too so not feeling this post

#182 MMM asks us to read the mafia championship thread. For the lazy it does indicate that he’s been studying between games, although I didn’t pick up any warning that he was gonna derp this hard

#194 rong bolds mmm, I’ve already commented

Wuf’s #196 attack on daven is kinda wuffy in tone and thinking, v points.

#219 a wild bigred appears! +1 for mentioning Philae, and don’t feel bad that he’s sleeping he did a great job. String of villagery posts from bigred laced with frivolity, I’ve missed him bad but don’t tell him that

#227 Aubrey returns to ww, awesome. As rong pointed out it’s an odd place to start but her #233 has a good vibe to it, although #241 not a fan of her hop on the mmm train

#237 ong is goaded into posting a cat pic, and it’s a goodun lol

#244 baud tries to steer from mojo to daven, #246 daven’s reply is really sparse.

#255 gabe wants to form an alliance, gets an overwhelming and immediate response

#258-260 rong drip feeds us some more thoughts, don’t know if he even could lay this low as a wolf tbh

And we're almost up to date. Looks like mojo is going down today, buttfor what it's worth (what's a buttfor?) I think daven or BID would be more likely wolf

lynch daven

There are others feeling slightly off (ong, aubrey, key, jkds) but a lot of people just aren't clearing themselves. I usually find more villagers than wolves d1 but this game I'm not getting much of either.

[baudib]

Dhuber, here's the thing. There are 4 players we want to kill; when someone becomes an early wagon D1 and there's not so much as a hint of counterwagon, the discussion dies and he gets majed, congratulations, you just lynched a villager.

Threadflow practically demands that he dies and I'm not going to white knight him and I understand that but the path of least resistance really leads to a good result.

Wuf sounds sincere you say, and I agree that his tone is pretty pure. But out of 17 posts, he has maybe 6 that are actually related to things people say in the thread:

-- 1 about the "yet another" vanilla comment
-- a couple about MMM possibly outing himself as Cursed
-- 1 where he talks about his meta with Daven, says he thinks he's a baddie but will stay on MMM
-- he agrees with my description of himself
-- he agrees with some things Monstr has said about me and that i've gotten a lot of experience playing elsewhere. This isn't exactly secret

His other posts are about a) game mechanics
b) laying slank cover ("I don't have the same schedule as everyone else." wtf does this mean, we have people playing on different continents)
c) how he's changing his play ("more like JV")
d) simplistic comments on optimal villager play ("villagers should lynch the wolfiest players each day")

[OngBonga]

If baudib is a wolf he's really pulled his shit together.

[baudib]

Heh, I was just going to do an MQ of people talking about being willing to lynch Daven but not actually doing it. That's generally a bad sign.

Luco was one of my only villager reads anyway.

I usually find more villagers than wolves d1 but this game I'm not getting much of either.

I'm liking a Baud-Dhuber-Luco villager coalition.

- I think Keith sounds like Keith. I don't really think Keith would intentionally derp to look villagery, I was mostly just busting his balls.
- Rong is not super active but his posts read villagery for himself.
- Keybored started off sounding EXACTLY the same as he did as a wolf but has gotten quite a bit better.
Ong set off some alarm bells early but he could be a villager, I guess. I have this history where people I can generally clear easily start to ping me a bit. It nags at me but I don't push them -- these players flip wolf a lot IME so I'm keeping a close eye on him.
- BigRed and Aubrey both jumping in strong is a really good sign as I've said. Typically when wolves are slanking and are late to the thread you get a variation on "Hey guize, sorry I'm late but my dog ate my homework and life is crazy right now, I'll read up and give my thoughts," then they disappear.

[Luco]

Fucking acronyms, it took me hours to work out IRT after monstrmnch said it

So IME is in my experience? What's MQ?

[baudib]

MQ = multiquote

come on Luco, get with the cool interwebs slang

CFD = Chinese Fire Drill. This is a POG (puzzles and other games on 2+2) term that accurately describes the practice of everyone feeling meh about the wagons, and then 10 mins before deadline, lynch someone who wasn't even talked about all day. Someone in the champions game talked about it today:

i love how a good situational last minuted rush (or "CFD" to you guys) somehow becomes the norm for you guys that's done every damn game. if something crazy is done all the time it ceases to be crazy. you guys are like the non-robot robots. predictable, in another way.

#194 rong bolds mmm, I’ve already commented

Wuf’s #196 attack on daven is kinda wuffy in tone and thinking, v points.

#219 a wild bigred appears! +1 for mentioning Philae, and don’t feel bad that he’s sleeping he did a great job. String of villagery posts from bigred laced with frivolity, I’ve missed him bad but don’t tell him that

#227 Aubrey returns to ww, awesome. As rong pointed out it’s an odd place to start but her #233 has a good vibe to it, although #241 not a fan of her hop on the mmm train

#237 ong is goaded into posting a cat pic, and it’s a goodun lol

#244 baud tries to steer from mojo to daven, #246 daven’s reply is really sparse.

#255 gabe wants to form an alliance, gets an overwhelming and immediate response

#258-260 rong drip feeds us some more thoughts, don’t know if he even could lay this low as a wolf tbh

And we're almost up to date. Looks like mojo is going down today, buttfor what it's worth (what's a buttfor?) I think daven or BID would be more likely wolf

lynch daven

There are others feeling slightly off (ong, aubrey, key, jkds) but a lot of people just aren't clearing themselves. I usually find more villagers than wolves d1 but this game I'm not getting much of either.

Luco, your comments on me laying low are bull shit. I'm half way up the post count and have given far more content than a lot of people.

[baudib]

The way I'd describe this game so far is that almost everyone is quite comfortably in their wolf range.

Slow down frenchie, that was actually a v lean! I didn't look at the post count before posting that. Every wolf game I've seen of yours you've been tip-top of the post count, the fact that 14 posts puts you in the top 50% is a reflection on D1 as a whole I think. I still think you'd likely have a higher post count as a wolf

[rong]

I don't think I've been high up in the post count for a good few games now. I've been collared too many times at work so have to behave a bit more now

Ouch. My desk has moved so it's much more tricky for me too, lots of people walking past all the time

You haven't been a wolf in ages though. So what you're basically saying is I shouldn't give you a V lean for activity? You're arguing against your own town tell? Fair enough, although arguing against your town tell is also a town tell so I'm still not concerned with you right now

There's still more than 24 hrs left for D1 discussion. Leaving me at L-2 is baiting the wolves to drop the hammer.

The discussion about the angel targeting me if I survive the day is ludicrous. There's too much heat on me to waste a 1-shot angel. PLUS, I have no special or power (to my knowledge) and there's better use of the angel.

FWIW, I've decided this speculation about the cursed is not productive, and I think the village would probably be well served to consider this a 4-W game. Reason: focusing on lynching the cursed is prioritizing a potential wolf over an actual wolf. Pretending that the village has more chance of finding the cursed than the wolves seems optimistic.

I searched for any hint of breadcrumbs in the first 2 pages and found none. That doesn't mean they aren't there, but I didn't see any of the more common crumbing. E.g. If a monkey can use razors, shave every day. (I AM CURSED.) Don't even pretend that's a claim from me, it's just an example of hidden messages, which have been used in this forum before.

***
Who is ong pretending to be? This is not the ong from last game. Last game he was a wolf, so that means he's a villager? IDK. My posts were obviously over-the-top out of character for only the first few posts of the game, after which time I've shown my hand. Ong has been and still is out of character.

Wuf sounds genuine. Absolutely. However, key sounded genuine last game, and he was a wolf. It's not about being authentic to yourself; it's about what is the motivation behind the posts. Wuf's posts serve the purpose to give the village reasons to not scrutinize him.

gabe skirted a direct question I asked him.

***
I think, right now, the wolves are supremely comfortable.

[MadMojoMonkey]

My problem now is that I think wuf and daven look the wolfiest so far, but daven's vote is on wuf. Given the fact that I'm almost assuredly the mislynch today, this is not a true bus, but it's something to scratch my head over.

ong, luco, gabe also looking less than towny.

baud has only strengthened my V-read on him.
dhubs more V than ever. (last game my critiques of dhubs were all from a position of ignorance. Once I heard of his performance 2 games back, I was aware of the fact that, while he reads simple, his conclusions are strong.)

Keybored and JKDS are seeming to read V-ish to me so far.

rong, monstrman, keith, aubrey need to post more game-content. Post all the fun stuff, too, but not at the detriment of progressing the game.

[MadMojoMonkey]

BID/bigred not looking like anything, but slightly V-lean.

The discussion about the angel targeting me if I survive the day is ludicrous. There's too much heat on me to waste a 1-shot angel. PLUS, I have no special or power (to my knowledge) and there's better use of the angel.

Hi Mr. Cursed. Ofc you wouldn't wanna be protected since you need to get nommed to achieve full status

Fully comfortable with this lynch choice.


Aubrey's first post reeks (reeks, reeks, rhymes with freaks). It's as if the game starting was a foregone conclusion. But I don't know what that means. I don't know if she knew her role and just decided to sit back, or if she really didn't see the thread until she started posting and just dove right in. Her post about Rong but then MMM bold is standard wolfaubrey though.

So at this point, I like three deaths: MMM, Daven, Aubrey. In that order

b) laying slank cover ("I don't have the same schedule as everyone else." wtf does this mean, we have people playing on different continents)

We have a history of players thinking I'm sitting back because when everybody else is on, I'm usually off. When I got on the thread yesterday, I saw people saying how they don't like how I wasn't responding to stuff, but the truth is that I simply hadn't logged in again. We have covered this in past games, but it seems to keep getting air.

Maybe I shouldn't even address it anymore. I'm sure a reason why it gets air is that I always try to correct it
