When I find out who
Made me have to write haiku
Here's what I will do...

Think I'll go to bed
I had time to play a bit
But no one is here

Tied wagons are fun
Think I favour Alison
But she'll vote Sabi

I don't see it as a shift in opinion, it's just unnecessary. She's been pushing me since N0.

Yes, I definitely didn't post after you because I left with my tail between my legs at your scolding, and not because I had work or anything.

We should make up some sort of fake meme or copypasta that supposedly happened in this thread, so that when we reunite with the other group (which I presume we'll do) we can pretend to have this hilarious in-joke between all of us.

I'm going to bed.

Unless anyone wants to quickly start up a wagon on, like, Lemonfairy or someone unexpected.

Tell him it was from 'a secret admirer' and put a few 'xo's on it too.

@Scotty give my good buddy falcon a gift.

Do you think we're getting secret gifts too?

Well, I see four possibilities.

why are you exercising worlds in which you are wolf? if you are town, you know they are not true

Oof

Cape wolf afterall

it just makes no sense to me, why talk from not your own point of view there? what's the point in that?

Don't worry about it.

Eh. I wouldn't go that far. Some of it is fine. I actually find his reasoning for his read on me something that could be a real thought, for one. Other bits look lacklustre on the surface but are saying more.

But I don't really think it's an unfakeable post that would make someone sharp like nutella decide to bring it up and say it's good.

I digress. What parts do you think are saying more

The reasoning on me (my posts sounding flat, lacking joy) is a line of logic I can see someone thinking. I don't think I've been my usual silly self either, so Dizzy reading into that seems fine.

His noticing of me/Rondo interaction feels like he went back and checked after I previously called out his vote on me (he called us both wolves but then voted alongside Rondo against me). In a v!Dizzy world he's reluctant to let his two semi-confident wolfreads go but part of him recognises the me/Rondo interaction suggests he needs to let at least one go and isn't sure which.

The whole thing on Guillo could also be a real thought. It's centred on how Guillo approached him, and I don't know about that but Dizzy's take on V vs W Guillo makes sense.

Tacking a read on leetic on at the end feels perhaps like a towny who had a decent feeling on a slot in N0 and doesn't want to forget it even though leetic isn't here.

The rest I can take or leave.

I can't always tell if my jokes are bad or just so advanced that they go over peoples heads. Probably the former.

Anyway I was being facetious.

Kind of think he's wolf

But he won't be chopped today

Lime will be chopped
So hope he decided to screw wolves over and not town over
But kind of maybe doubt it
But also sure

Radish/Rondo interaction beep beep
Maybe
Don't know about Rondo otherwise tbh

I want to give Guillo the benefit of the doubt
But him tryharding and a couple of the things he's said
About me being good at mafia and pretending to not follow the game
Think it's slightly more likely he says it as mafia than town maybe
I think generally Guillo is motivated by showing competence
If he cares about being right and cares about catching wolves, he can be town
If he cares about someone going oh that was a well played wolf game good faking, he can be wolf
Maybe someone who has read his posts has an idea

Sponge says Nut and Michelle are town

Unsure if Nook has the right vibes actually, it's hrm

Hope the other thread gives Leetic a chance, cause they are easy to read over time
Read their ISO from D0 and it was more flat than usual, but the complaining was consistent with town games

That's about it. Have read very little tbh

I like this post

Really

Master Radishes wrote: ↑Mon Jan 29, 2024 4:41 pm I'm on board with Alison or Brad btw.

Both are showing attitudes I've seen from wolf them lately. Have scummed with both recently ish.

To expand on this, now that I'm at a computer,

Alison played a game on CDC recently where we wolfed together. She clearly wasn't invested and lazily bussed her entire team for almost the entire game. Like she didn't even try to fake things, she just skipped wolfchat and popped into thread now and then to aggressively push several teammates. I don't know about bussing here, but she has a similar attitude of someone who has stopped trying to actually try at playing, and is lazily being a bit aggressive because that's what is expected of her. Her heart doesn't seem in it. It's in it more here than that CDC game, but I get a similar vibe.

As for Brad, there was a game on MU where I subbed in to a doomed wolfteam he was on, and he was doing okay D1 but the town was coming together and was sniffing him (and me) out. His posts were fine on their own (town was pretty good tbh) but his approach to shrugging off suspicion was not based on sounding towny on words and actions, but more so based on affecting a casual, lighthearted, just-having-fun attitude (like getting super excited in thread when I subbed in). Basically he didn't have time or energy to fake 'solve' to look good, so he overcompensated on his tone/persona instead. And so far he is pretty much all casual, lighthearted, just-having0fun tone/persona. (That said, there's implications in what he's said about why this is, so I dunno.)


I'm not pinning my entire read on this sort of silly meta read or anything. But both are hitting a vibe, in their own way, I feel I recognise from recent wolf games.

Basically if Dizzy turns up scum I'm going to claim credit but I'm not really thinking about pushing there at the moment.

Anyway, for srs now, Dizzy and I have mostly towned together and in our heydeys we 'got' each other and vibed quite hard in our games. But I do remember in a previous game (possibly two? I remember one on MU and I thought there was a previous GoC? Might be confusing things though) w!Dizzy pivoted onto pushing v!me in a manner that mildly pinged me, but I don't remember how any of it turned out now.

Anyway, something about him wolfreading me here suddenly and without substance felt off. It seems lazy, which is not an adjective I associate with Dizzy, even a mildly slanky version of him.

But there's an honest chance it's just old-man-Dizzy being actually half-assing it a bit here, which is an approach I'm very familiar with for myself. So it might just be he noticed my posts because of our good times together and since I'm not doing too much yet he felt I might actually be wolf without reading very closely.

Oh no wait I forgot about the 3P factor.

That's another few options.
