I'm good with rascal or Daven today.
Not wolves: BID, Ong
Likely not wolves: Luco, MMM, Baudib, keybored
Fuck 'em: bigred, boog, hoopy, monstr, rascal, daven, wuf
bomb threat on campus. car parked next to building, probably suspicious package inside as the campus is cleared and they sectioned the whole thing off as we were leaving
had a bomb threat on the sister campus like two weeks ago. i think a guy may have been arrested on campus over it, but im not sure if that was the reason
have free time today now so can actually thoroughly read through the last ten pages
these are nothing but empty words while you continue to vote for a villager.
if you were a wolf in this spot and know rascal is a villager, then offering to off yourself to get rid of 3 villagers is a +EV gambit
problem is I think you're a villager and you're still taking a really low EV line here.
I want to lynch luco or boog this day. Preferably luco.
Wait... maybe you weren't on the block? Either way, you were there at deadline... making waves.
@Hoopy: Your read on wuf is of utmost importance this day.
What about wuf's read on hoopy?
Monstr's a villager almost always here -- this makes the Boog lynch significantly less appealing.
I've practically begged wuf for reads already, but obv. it's relevant what he thinks of Hoopy.
It's just that wuf's already said he's less likely to vote for Hoopy 'cause % sign. Add that onto his sporadic flip-flopping and I'm not sure what he could say besides a full condemnation of Hoopy that I will be able to put much stock in.
@MMM
Can you please post your graph again, but with the players paired up? Leaving off the unpaired people.
Right now, I want to
lynch boog
Mostly for tone reasons I've noted in prior posts, and also for the unfulfilled promise he made "in transit."
Plus BID likes it, and gabe told me to. (mostly kidding, but there's some weight to it)
***
I think key will prove himself today. He's def. out of his spaz zone that has reared up in recent games (He's been V). So he's plugged in this game... is it wolfy key? (Jibbers Crabst, don't take this as an invitation to spaz... I don't think it helped you except to protect village PRs, which there are none in this game.)
Every time I decide to read Ong as V, then do so, I feel like I'm just asking for a gut-punch. Still have him as V, though. If Ong is W this game, then much as I respect him (and I do), it's not nearly enough. I mean if Ong is W, then he's really taken his game to the next level in a matter of weeks.
I'm coming around on Luco. I think he's earned his way to neutral.
I can. I have to run errands today and I have a dinner thing tonight.
It's all in an Excel sheet that I've slowly been updating every game... and the addition of that VC graph is new and still clunky to change.
I'll need to create a ... blah blah blah ...
Yeah, I can do that... but I can't just pop it up in the next few minutes... maybe not even hours... but def. before EOD.

You want to see just the known pairs, and how many votes they had throughout?
So I'm omitting bigred, daven, key and Luco entirely?
Turns out A + B is pretty easy in Excel.

The chart is part of the reason mojo is clear. Wolves don't make charts.
Boogs last post of d1 felt kinda natural and not deathrolly imo. I want to hear more from him today
Monstr I think is v based on the name slips and a couple of other things. He's also low key though
Wuf I also have leaning v but admittedly this is more style based than substance based
Hoopy has been better today but I want to shelve him today for meta reasons - he showed a lack of stamina as a wolf last game so it may be best to just see if he can keep pace for a few days
I like the rascal lynch because Ong does. Without talking about private chat I think we have to lend some weight when someone says trust me my partner is wolfin. I already had rascal on the radar before this anyways, nothing he said d1 was as villa as his first game
alright this is a good post from you even if I disagree with a bunch of it.
I'd honestly rather not lynch Rascal today just because Ong is going to be the most likely villagery person to figure this game out mechanically.
i'm still probably only lynching Wuf-Boog today.
okay this turned out to be a huge ass post, so bear with
now that we have two deaths under our belt, we can actually do stuff. initial review of wagonomics shows me getting to 4 within the first couple of posts and not getting any lower until i rammed everybody's head against the wall. it was only after i demonstrated that i had been at 5 votes for the whole day and nobody else had been higher than 2 and most votes were either spread out in 1 or absent. even mmm had to drop off my wagon after that.
then near the eod it went to boog rapidly then just as rapid a drop off and onto gabe and baud. but then boog resurged. very eod had gabe edging out boog
i am obviously the most lynchbaity player in this game. merely minutes into it and i had 4 votes. count it, fucking 4. it took me raising hell to get below 4. i was accused of not hunting or playing my normal village game, but im left here baffled that anybody would think that since i never hunt d1. i goof around or bold based on intuition or policy. i do wagonomics and deep game reads. d1 has not been a hunting day for me for like two whole years. the wolves are those who pretend they dont know this.
enter rilla. he has made it a point to muddy the waters and tell everybody im acting differently. sometimes im left wondering if anybody even reads anythign i say. i tend to think i can read rilla well, so i thought little of it at first. but then he kept doing it. bolded me then debolded then bolded again. and he's back to it today. i have made it emphatically clear that my schedule is a specific time and that i am busy, yet yesterday, at a time when i am never on, he says "derp wuf is so suspiciously absent". ofc i am i usually dont get home until 3-5PST and even when i do im fucking spent because im a stupid person trying to major in math. it's funny how i keep telling a guy in my class how good he is at math and he keeps denying it, but he picks things up at least twice as fast as i do. this is literally the last thing i should be studying, which is why im doing it.
my d1 wagon was clearly a bullshit wagon without any counters. i think at least one player is among the first four bolds, most likely mmm. but apparently nobody even knows mmm is playing, as ive been the only bold on him all game. the other thing that stands out in the wagonomics is that once it became about baud and gabe, things got crazy. it could be about boog, but he's also major lynchbait. the dude gets early lynched in half the games he plays. it's reasonable since he always seems so wolfy, but the fact is that after i posted the huge discrepancy between my wagon and any others, everything jumped to boog. he and i are among the easiest lynchbait and the wagons got heavy almost instantly. looks more like wolves taking the easy road (as well as some villagers) more than bolding for rationale. if boog is a wolf, it would mean that my wagon probably wouldnt have lost the steam the way it did. i was such an easy lynch. this doesnt clear boog by any stretch of the imagination. hell he is one of my wolf picks for the simple fact that he was on my wagon so easily. but the ease of his wagon suggests he is just a railroaded villager. at least for now
which brings us to baud. well, and gabe but we know he's a villager now. it was when baud's wagon started getting steam that things got crazy. at the time i thought his defenses were better than gabe's, as he seemed much more natural baud. but he wasnt always. he opened the game claiming he didnt care much and wasnt going to do much. then suddenly when his neck nears the guillotine, he has epiphanies about how people not named baud are wolves. rilla too. once baud was under pressure, they both made a show of getting on gabe and they flopped around too. both of them adored lynching any of me gabe or boog. and today they're both on me.
baud and rilla are voting as a block. funny how they've basically cleared each other. more like they're both wolves. mmm is the third. it's in the wagonomics. here's the step by step of it
im in the lead and bid bolds boog
then I make the wagonomics post that demonstrates what ive been saying the whole time, and shortly after baud gets on boog
teh hoopman on boog. tell me it isnt so
lol jesus christ talk about lynchbait. granted rong aint a wolf
oh nifty so baud didnt think boog was a wolf then?
lolwat? boog wagon almost launching as quickly as mine did
boog defends himself and then ong switches
something something baud baud
boog on baud
oh hey what's this three switches
nutlow villaging or topform wolfing. notice that keybored has been on my case since second uno. i dont even think he has bolded anybody. just me over and over. all with shit reason.
not happy about this. boog engaging in some similar behavior as baud
oh heeeey look who decided to show up
and here we go, a known villager getting on baud
self preservation and/or reads. looks to me like reads and we'll be owing gabe and apology. cant say im a fan of the idea that gabe could retain his old glory as considered such a great player. ofc if he deserves it he deserves it
lol scratch that. all self preservation from gabe apparently
more self preservation
next three are telling
i thought everbody knew i was fucking gone. such opportunism. baud is in the clear and rilla wants to get back on me, laying all the groundwork he can. he's knows he cant nom me and he knows how strong i am as a villager. yes i get everything wrong, but that's only before i get it right. rilla absolutely knows the danger i pose, to him specifically since im never misread him in the pass. hell baud even recently said "he plays bad but gets there". in a no nom game, im a prime target of thinking wolves. huge lynchbait yet also huge narrative controller and endgame threat
hoops was already on boog but rebolds
oh heeeeeeey look who doesnt care about anything but confusion and getting not-deaded. me or boog, doesn't seem to matter
hmmmm
erebody bolding boog and gabe now
erebody including me. at least i had actual reasons. not some bullshit protection or bullshit self preservation
same time as me
a little surprised shakespeare (i mean daven) found enough time to stray his vision from me. tbh im sitting on my thoughts about him since i have been so epicly burned by his unquenchable desire to always help wolves.
sorry mmm, yes i do keep lots of stuff close to the vest. only newbs say most of what who they think is wolf and who isnt. i have long since changed to a style where i focus attention on individuals and wagon dynamics
late to the party. or maybe just on time. gabe was already over boog from both me and daven's posts. mmm looks worried since there was no time left
d2
never let a lack of rationale stop you!
fancy fucking that
here we have it folks. rilla and baud haven't assed a single correct thought about me all game, and here they are voting in block. they care more about getting rid of me than they do actually hunting. we have a wealth of information on d1. all good villagers use that info to their advantage. only bad wolves disregard it and cling to an agenda
lynch baud
for postgame: baud and rilla, with mmm and keybored for the final two.
yeah and like you've voted for bid all this time. stop the presses: wuf said the most obvious thing in the world that links won't be voting for each other any time soon
could mmm be assed to actually review the thread? to see that the pairs are voting in blocks? the last thing im going to do is tell you my opinion of hoopy, becuase ive been playing the way villagers should. if i think he's a wolf, im bolding him, and only then will you know what i think. i havent stupidly tried to suss him out in private chat. i already explained why. if we do that then we're doomed. reads are in game, end of story. if we try to take peoples' word for it on private chat, we lose
I mean if 2 of Wuf/Boog/Daven aren't wolves, I don't see how we win this.
Damn wuf as soon as I defend you you throw out two posts that I really disagree with.
I think at least three of the wolves you named are village, and I also see value in the 1v1 chat and have found it useful.
the thing is there is no way we can know.
every little advantage any villagers think they can get from private chats are negated by the advantages that wolves get by SAYING they are getting an advantage
lynches still happen by village consensus. it does not help if a villager has a special view of a player since wolves can have the same thing. it matters what we see itt
so Ong is probably a villager playing one of his worst village games ever.
Wuf is a wolf playing a bad wolf game or a villager playing his worst village game ever.
@wuf: Most of what you've just posted is excellent, and I'm handing out more V-cred to you.
I haven't voted for BID because I strongly believe he's a V... that doesn't mean I'm right and should ignore potential warning signs. Furthermore, I agree with you insofar as that my assessment of BID may be clouded by self-preservation. I may subconsciously have a higher bar for what I consider wolfy from BID. I am making every attempt to be objective. When he's been shady, I've called him out. Rest assured that if he gets all howly in chat, I'll bold him in big letters, and you can all just follow suit.
Like we will all follow suit if Ong's vote is on rascal at EOD.
I think chat is a great way to search for duplicity.
Obv. I'm reviewing the thread. I saw pairs voting together and pairs voting separately.
Fine, keep your opinion of hoopy to yourself. In the short term it does look wolfy (but I believe that you believe it's villagery). In the long term, maybe your strategy will pay off.
I'm more conscious of the village's need to make the decision with me. So I'm putting BID's feet to the fire whenever I get suspicious.
Don't think Wuf or Boog have helped themselves at all here.
in fact Wuf's wolf equity is skyrocketing because he's a shitty wolf who only has theoretical knowledge of wolfing.
your MQs are bad dude, and no one reads them anyway.
Boog at least isn't shooting himself in the foot with every sentence.
I don't think baud and daven are w-w
Baud has sidestepped daven one too many times now. It could be wolf baud trying to strawman but honestly I'm at the point where one flipping wolf is actually going to look good for the other
what exactly does this worst wolf game consist of? getting to the top of bolds in just under 3 hours of the game opening, then outlining strategy that helps us immensely, then finally people realize that i had been the leading wagon with no other options the entire game so they get off?
oh but wait i got accused of not posting while i was gone. oh but wait i got accused of not having epic d1 soulreads. oh but wait i just get bolded over and over and over
i am sorry if you are a villager. i am not in a cordial place over this game. i feel like i was right about the links, that i was backed up by most of the players, that it was a big deal that i was right since everything i see about the format suggests that wolves get a big benefit out of hidden links and villagers get a huge benefit out of revealed links, and yet despite all that, i have been on the chopping block constantly for this. nevermind that rilla had the same opinion as me. at first i was baffled that i was the one getting so much heat when i was saying the same thing as rilla, but now i think it's because rilla is a wolf
it's unlikely that both you and rilla are wolves, just like it's unlikely that any d2 soulread is correct. but if the shoe fits
My bad.
Somehow in my head I had it that you said you would post when you got home... but I guess I fucking made that up.
rescind boog
for my own derp.
***
lynch baud
cause I disgree with this post 100%
oh that's a solid reason MMM
also it's besides the point, Wuf. I've openly stated that I've changed my mind on Daven anyway, so parsing every post to find contradictions isn't particularly enlightening or helpful.
you're not hunting or searching, you're lawyering pretty hard.
you can argue that Hoopy is even being wolfier than Wuf at this point.
