Hi, BID!

I'm the loyal lion
I think we're picking nits over flow of thread vs. my thought process, since my thought process is in that flow.
I don't recall Ong ever posting a VC, and I don't see what is gained by the incorrect count other than to say my vote was ineffective. If he was pushing on me as wolfy, then I'd think this was intentional.
The fact is that I thought I was placing the deciding vote, and I replied as such. Given daven's VC analysis, it looks like I was right.
***
What do you think wolf-Ong gains by saying that my vote was not the deciding vote at EOD?
Bear in mind that he says this knowing that I keep a spreadsheet and track daily post count and vote counts.
So if he's a wolf, and he's lying, then he KNOWS it's a paper tiger.
Baud, why the harassment of Daven when he's trying to catch up on the thread and make reads. It would be more beneficial to assess what he's saying and interacting as you say.
I agree that interaction is the best way to get reads, but you're dead wrong that reading the thread "ancient history" is infinitely more valuable. Connections are made especially in vote analysis from the lynches.
This doesn't look like game solvey Baud.
There is a difference between what I posted which were the flow of the posts and what you were thinking. It's not a nit.
You said:
You gave no rationale for your vote change. I just want to understand why you switched from Boog to Gabe.
I think this is where we're at:
Unofficial Vote Count!
(5) Baudib: Boog, Ongbonga, MadMojomonkey, Bankitdrew

(1) Ongbonga: Rascal
(1) Luco: Daven
Not Voting: Bigred
The first post was made just before your vote and talking about lyrics. Making a read from someone posting or not posting lyrics or pics or charts is role neutral and not making a true read, but more like trying to force a read on someone to support why you voted them.
The second post is much better, but it was made after the reveal so it doesn't mean as much, especially when you're saying there that you voted because of Daven and Ong.
Really? I thought I said this:
"It's a vote for rong, not gabe, just to be clear."
and this:
"It was my decision, and ultimately it was based on my perceptions."
No one but gabe thought I had anything but hot air with the lyrics read. However, in retrospect, it was correct. So was my read on gabe's anti-spew, which I also caught heat for. In retrospect, they were good reads. It looks like unreadable gabe has some leaks after all.
However, I said he was a V, then voted for him. Then said I had faith in him, but not his partner.
I feel like you are either grasping at straws or just need to reread the thread.
I see players post pics, lyrics and charts all the time. It's not a read IMO.
However, I did misread your vote being essentially for Rong rather than Gabe.
Why the vote on Rong? I had him as a villa while I thought Gabe was wolfy.
I assume bigred has the tie break lead

I think Bigred has the tiebreaker over Baud here, but I haven't had time to go back all the way to check.
The only wagon with baud or rong or luco at EOD was the gabe/rong wagon.
lilrascal is not really behaving like a wolf in the shit.
I think I was wrong, and basically spazzed out. Good job that's not difficult to believe.
I don't think I'm wrong about baudib though. Check out the muliple times he says there's a high % chance of wolf between us, even though he thinks we're both villagers to varying degrees. His position on us doesn't add up... on the one hand, we're villagers, on the other we need to go. Baudib has been doing his best to maintain suspicion on us as a pair, while refusing to actually commit to a balls out wolf read on either of us individually.
baudib is wolf as fuck. lilrascal, I think I was wrong. I'm not saying sorry for spazzing though until I KNOW I was wrong!
I mean that of the 3 people I wanted to vote for, only one of them was lynchable.
boog/monstr
gabe/rong
I was on boog/monstr and I didn't have either of them as a W-lean.
I shifted to gabe/rong because I had rong as a W-lean. Also, I was voting in line with more people I read as V's by switching my vote.
There was absolutely no point is shifting my vote to baud/rilla at EOD when he (they) had only 1 vote.
I feel like I have this solved.
Assuming wolves are all split up, then wolves are in...
rilla/baudib
luco/keyb
wuf/hoopy
bigred/daven
I've cleared rascal because I think his willingness to die is sincere, plus hes still wolf hunting, rather than worrying about the mess I made.
I've cleared boog/monstr based on logic.
I've cleared mojo/drew based on reads.
If I'm wrong about any of my village reads, I'd reassess drew before anyone else.
There's a minimum of four villagers in my top list. Those villagers need to be assessing their partner.
My partner is so ASSessed. I Essed the shit out of his ASS.
(Not talking about chat inb4 BID denies.)
@Ong: I'm not sure about bigred/daven.
They are the lynchbait vote based on low post count, as wolves would obv want to attack people who aren't fighting back.
I get that people want more involvement from bigred, and I do too, but it's bigred. IDK.
What's your read on Daven's posts today?
Are you really this bad at math? I gave the numbers before. Other than Wuf/Boog, who are pretty much always wolves, and Rilla/BID, who are never wolves, everyone in the game is likely to be a villager, but can still be greater than rand to be wolves.
Take out BID/Rilla and there are 4 wolves in 11 players, so ~ rand to be a wolf is around 36%.
Even if the most likely alignment of Ong/Rascal is V/V, there's a wolf between them a high % of the time.
This is a pretty clever move by Ong if he's a wolf. "Hey my partner's probably a wolf, kill us" -- "Look I'm lock villager, I said my partner's a wolf," -- "oops just kidding, we're villagers."
At least Ong has admitted he's playing bad. Rascal, what's your take on this?
All of you ignoring the purity of the Boog wagon and Wuf's movement from non-wagon to Gabe without considering Boog are highly suspect. I especially expect more from Ong.
The dumbest thing I can do in ww, imo, is to willingly allow a wolf to influence my decision.
it should be
Player A thinks Player C is a wolf
Player B thinks Player C is a wolf
Player A votes for Player B
Do you want us to lynch wuf first so you can ask for village cred for bussing him? Is that what you're trying to do here baudib?
No, I want you to lynch Wuf cuz he's a wolf and if you lynch me and Rilla we're gonna lose.
Don't lynch me or we'll lose.
Really baudib.
You're stooping to don't lynch me or we lose.
Ong, if you're a villager and me and Rilla buy it then good luck with the rest of this crew. You've got MMM who says wolves do one thing and then votes for the guy specifically not doing that thing, and Luco who is unengaged and uninterested. At least you've got Daven, who should be up to speed about Day 2 events by Wednesday or Thursday.
glgl
Village can't lose with less than 4 V-V mislynches.
Baud is seriously fear mongering with the whole "I'm a V and if you lynch me we lose."
Not that I believe he's a V. Even in the off chance baud/rilla is V/V, then that's it's hardly a "we lose."
It'll suck, but it will be far from over.
It'll be over. Zero chance you get the order right when this LDFO lynch is Wuf or Boog today and you do something else. I'll give Wuf enough credit for having the balls to figure out a play to get through another day and Ong is going to dominate the thread with his "omg i'm a villager so Boog is a villager for raisins" line.
Just because "wolves would want XYZ" broadly, that doesn't mean or even imply that "all wolves will do XYZ."
It just means that doing XYZ is easy, and wolfy.
It would be stupid for all wolves to always do XYZ, because that's obviously wolfy.
So at least 1 wolf will not do XYZ, and may even howl about how bad XYZ is for cred.
It's not a hard-and-fast rule that all wolves will attack lynchbait.
Just think, if we don't lynch baudib today, we have this to look forward to again tomorrow.
Rilla and I are easily the most likely V-V in the game, this is just horrible game theory if you lynch me.
Wuf is playing nothing at all like his normal village game and Boog has contributed absolutely zero. The link between Wuf and Boog is clear as daylight. The movement from Boog to Gabe is wolfy as fuck, despite what Ong says, and Wuf's shift is the wolfiest (or second wolfiest, after MMM, who is likely just clueless).
I don't work as a wolf with a single player in the game, except maybe Rascal, but that's iffy at best.
Furthermore not a single one of you except Monstr knows what to expect from me as a villager so 100% of the "Baud does XYZ" or "Baud seems XXX" are rendered totally meaningless.
That post from Keybored is horrendous. Discrediting without offering differing opinion, saying it's anti-village while expecting me to do better as a wolf, when a wolf would obviously be doing well to promote something that's anti-village. That's a lot of excuses and contradictions in a very short post.
P.S.
Daven: Giving Keybored V-cred for busy work is laughable. If there's anything Keybored has proven it's that he can put in busy work and produce useful lists as a wolf.
He said he was drunk. Don't expect high quality.
i've had a quick skim through day 2 now. About to do a thorough readthrough.
based on day 1 and the skim i think that keybored is pretty near to lock villager - general feel plus his vote count posts late on day 1 don't seem like something a wolf would do. BID is getting pretty close to lock villager too, based on his posting, his lack of a slip-up indicating that he's a wolf, and mmm's partner read (noting this does not clear mmm).
here's a soulread guess at a wolf team for ya: baudib/luco//mmm/one of [hoopy/wuf].
i want to hear more from lilrascal on ong.
we should be able to generate a lynch path to victory from this point, as per gabe. working backwards
i'm not lynching luco/keybored or mmm/bid today cos my two village reads mean there are better options.
i'm obviously not lynching bigred today - i'm definitely not clearing him though.
i don't think ong/lilrascal is ideal today.
that leaves boog/monstr, baudib/rilla, or hoopy/wuf.
Daven makes the same mistake as Ong ~ 40% of the time.
it's messing with my head. I want to join either the baudib or the wuf wagon. Either has decent probability of snagging a wolf, feel of baudib's tone today has been aggressive defence which seems wolfy but i dunno, i always want to lynch wuf and he feels wolf too so. meh. Day 2 is feeling like a whole lot of noise.
what do you mean re the x-post comment baudib?

Q&A
Q: Will you change it so we vote for teams instead of for people?
A: No. Good god man, are you hourly?
because the rest of the post is you blathering on about dead villagers. Daven, dead villagers played worse than you did and have half the information as you.
Keybored has been a consistent D2 mislynch as a villager, except for one time when he was a N1 vig shot. When he appears helpful and involved, he's a wolf. you were in the ghost angel game, you should know this.
I'm not misrepresenting anything. I am in fact incorporating a portion of Gabe's read on Boog because I have no experience with Boog. But rereading dead villagers has about 1/100th the value of weighing in on more recent developments. It'd be more interesting if Gabe were nightkilled but that can't even happen this game.
He's not at the top of the list but yes. Even if strictly by PoE, there's no room for him in the village if you and BR are villagers IMO.
Go back and reread some of the Ghost Angel game that Wuf modded if you need a refresher. Keybored was easily the most objectively wolfy player in the game, hopping around from wagon to wagon -- "flavor of the day" as some put it -- with little to no reasoning for his switch. He also largely ignored Ong despite the two of them being the most active players in the thread. He got by doing lots of busy work and producing list after list and MQ after MQ.
he's doing a tempered version of that here.
I can't even tell by looking at the playerlist/votecounts who I would vote for besides wuf and I just find myself not liking any of the other options.
I don't think baudib/rilla contains a wolf
Ong posted pretty hard at a few points this game and I didn't sense any agenda behind any of his posts, from what I remember.
I'm too scared to move to bigred because I think wuf is a wolf. Sorry dude, I mean it sucks sometimes but I just need you to die. I can't reconcile considering any of the other wagons until you're gone.
Did we get who wuf's partner was?
Or I guess, do we have who wuf's partner is?
If we're gonna cfd I'm down for whoever baudib chooses
Not that it matters since we have all day, but still I work tomorrow again so I'll check in but won't be back till later tonight
I shouldn't even be playing right now but here I am
I really hope I'm not clearing you wrongly baudib.
I really don't read you well at all
Like just thinking about it you've beaten me every time you've wolfed against me i think
Wuf's vote is in a very lame and unproductive spot. Unfortunately he has explained that he does not want to give me any reads and, I may be adding my own words here but more or less told me to "suck it nerd, I'm ignoring you "
Well okay he said "you're joining (other player here) in being ignored but still. At this point in the game if you're a villager all you can do is get your reads out there.
If you're a wolf dont fight this and the village will sort it out
Bigred seems like he'd be easy lynch bait.
At the very least baudib is a wagon of resistance.
voters on big red looking kinda sketchy
I would go luco or Hoopy overy Keybored I think
I'm guessing the next wolf play is switch from existing wagon to bus wuf.
That's my villager foresight
Ooh now I've leveled myself into being scared of voting for wuf
I forgot how exciting being overly paranoid can be.
I feel like ong/rascal prolly has a wolf in it.
Daven and rascal should vote be voting on wagons that don't start with (1)
Vote is supposed to be both.
I really can't words.
Anyway, night.
I'll check on the thread in the morning prolly and them I'm off to work
Monstr -- you were angel in the no-reveal game where I lost at F3
you read me well there and in most other games, even that Venture Bros. disaster.
Quick perusal of Vikings game (it took all of 90 seconds) shows that Keybored was a villager and never posted a vote count, which would have been really helpful at the time since I am the worst vote-counting mod of all time.
For all his huffing and puffing about how good his wolf game is, this would be a disappointing wolf game for wuf.
Guess I shouldn't have expected four hours to produce many posts. Oh well
Ya I guess baudib I was just thinking of the first game we played together actually.
you might be right I'm just worried is all.
It's prolly nothing.
I have noted that and it seems suspicious to me. There's only two reasons that I can think that he'd do that.
1) He's a wolf and his reason to not interact in chat is his way to avoid getting caught in two places (chat and thread) in the same game.
2) He's a selfish villa and is just looking to get himself further in the game rather than helping the village.
In either case, I think Wuf needs to go.
Baud, I was starting to think you were villa on reread today, then I get to these posts.
Now, I find myself agreeing with MMM here who I'm also suspicious of, but looks better based on this.
Man...I wish Keith were here, just to see him shit a brick over those consecutive Monstr posts. Ronk's def pissing himself in the dedthrd. Monstr, come on man, fluffing the post count or just unable to summarize?
I disagree with the first bolded. I don't think there's a really clear V-V partnership in the game ATM.
With regards to the second bolded. I'd like to clarify this for the other players here (monstr will already understand this). I've played a lot of turbo ww games with Baud on another site. A turbo game has 9 players and has 20 minute days and lasts about 90 minutes. In that time there will be somewhere between 300 and 500 posts. I have been a wolfbro with Baud in that format, but it's not equivalent to a slower game, so I can't base his wolf game on that.
This interaction between Baud and Daven looks good for Daven and bad for Baud. Baud isn't that bad at reading posts and misreading/misinterpreting Daven's posts is bad Baud.
Also Baud saying go read other games is just lazy IMO and is not helpful. It's also a contradiction by Baud saying "ancient history" is infinitely less valuable than interaction. Referring to another game is definitely "ancient history", but rereading this thread is not "ancient history".
Baud is definitely going up on my wolf list, but I'll finish catching up before I make a vote.
BAUDIB...What you say above is accurate. For ref use: Ong/Keybored were wolves together who eventually won. It was my 3rd or 4th WW game ever and I was completely riding on Ong's coattails. He did the battling and I did busy work to look active. Foot note, Rilla was a wolf that game also and he up/quit day2 cuz of it. Dude don't like or play wolf (weird, but somehow true).
But this game is different. There are no specials or night actions! Nobody has to worry about getting killed (only lynched). To win, the village only has to keep its V-V pairs alive. I'm >90% sure my partner is V, so as long as everyone else is throwing spears around, I find it my responsibility to avoid stray bullets; aka, keep my foot out of my mouth. Is that wolfy, lurkish behavior? Sure. But if you've watched my partner, Luco, you'll see he's done a rather poor job of keeping his head down. But it's tough to hold back when so much shit is flying around and you've got an opinion on most of it. FWIW, I also believe BID/MMM and Ong/Rascal are in the same category. IMO, these 3 pairs are the key to village success and need to be protected.
Assuming all wolves are paired with villagers, to provide you with my reads...
THERE IS A WOLF IN EACH OF THESE PAIRS:
Baud-Rilla
Wuf-Hoppy
Boog/Monstr
Daven/BigRed
My vote has been sitting on BigRed cuz there's two things I hate most in this game: non-voters, non-players. The BigRed wagon has had some momentum yet he still remains MIA. That ain't right; now and esp down the road. In the second half of the game, if Red is still around, we'll have zero info to work with and that's not acceptable.
However, if the Baudib wagon get near to 8 while the BigRed wagon remains low, I'll snap lynch your ass in a second.
Baud, what do you expect us to do with this? You've cherry picked quotes from "ancient history" games.
How do I know how to interpret any of that since it's so out of context? And no, I'm not going to go and reread old games. Reading old games isn't that useful, every game is different.
Baud, if I wanted to quote damning quotes like you did, I'd do them from this game. Like this one:
In isolation this post looks bad for you, but when taken into context it's actually neutral. I'm one of the ones that pushed you to not be wishy washy in your vote. So, I don't find this isolated post incriminating because it's out of context.
