That last part I take back, the threadstate is very weird but there's only 2 votes on me. So there's ample room for wagons to change, meaning wolves will probably still be on edge.WindwardAway wrote: āTue Feb 13, 2024 12:26 pm Well
I don't love that Davos hasn't returned in like two days
I say you guys might wanna do something about that and root out the puppetmaster after I die
I don't think we need to waste today on a sock puppet, but if Davos's owner is happy with the threadstate then they're probably a wolf after all
Primarily because I have no idea anymore who the puppetmaster is, assuming they're a player in the game, but it's not me so I'm probably their safest voteWindwardAway wrote: āTue Feb 13, 2024 12:34 pm I just have this weird expectation that Davos is gonna pop outta nowhere at EoD, go "arrr" and probably vote me

Like from a design standpoint I see the symmetry but it does feel a bit of an advantage to town to have things so evenly split for situations exactly like this. It creates an artifical PoE.
Unless we think there was 5/5 or 4/5 but that seems skewed given the player count and multiple 3ps.
Had we kept to the correct assumed numbers in severance we would've hit W Rondo.![]()
Wait, I can't use my laptop, because I have no WiFi. And my mobile data's slow as balls; it took 15 minutes for this page to load. Anyway, [VOTE: DrWilgy] aubergine, couldn't look into it too deeply but they seem like they have the highest chance of flipping wolf right now. Sorry I can't do any more this phase (unless the power miraculously come back), I can't control when we have shit weather.

Huh, if anything I would've written off Nut as an arbiter. I don't think she would've been so insistent on townreading falcon and then push me for pushing her based on that, if she were teamed with falcon. Plus she had fairly consistent suspicion on Lemon.DrWilgy wrote: āTue Feb 13, 2024 4:58 pmI mean, I keep trying to throw it out there and discuss how my brain is working around the MR suspicion I have, do you have thoughts there?Delta wrote: āTue Feb 13, 2024 4:46 pmI'm here if you want to get a back and forth going, I'm going through past games of the current wolf flips o/DrWilgy wrote: āTue Feb 13, 2024 4:43 pm Nut, Leetic, Sig, MR have all expressed 'I guess W just has to be Wilgy' without anything else.

In terms of thread PoE we have WWA, Nut, MR.
While I don't think MR could be an Arbiter I do think there's a high chance for Landlord based on polling.
I haven't explored WWA's likelyhood for Arbiter, but have seen others express that there's a firm possibility. WWA doesn't make sense as a Landlord.
I haven't explored Nutella's likelyhood for Arbiter, nor have I really seen others express it, so I'd almost write it off. Nutella has higher equity as landlord, but I still think it's unlikely. What keeps me circling back to Nutella is the weird preflipping done and Nook's read of the slot.
So,
Arbiters: WWA, Nut
LL: MR

But like, why didn't you preface your statement with this if you knew it already? Were we hoping it wouldn't be brought up and waited to see?
The wagon was a whole three (3) votes. You really think that can't be three town?
I mean you're not interacting with me either. And regardless, so what?

Nut went from 1 and 1 in Nook/Wilgy to I guess it's just Wilgy/Radish without much else and in spite of how little both of these make.
Nook was trying to eat LemonFairy for two cycles and Falc had forgotten them, thus were likely only landlord.
I'm probably self viewing myself incorrectly, but with my interactions with Falc, I'd think that the Wilgy Arbiter theory to be thin, thus I'm likely only landlord as well.
Radish for the same reason, and what I put previous, is likely not an Arbiter.
So Nut's preflipping and suspicions are like, Landlord, Landlord, Landlord and that's why it doesn't make sense.
You are allowed and I'd encourage it, but my question is if you think 'ugh someone is going to find this questionable' why not say it before hand?Master Radishes wrote: āTue Feb 13, 2024 5:02 pm Why would I need to preface any statement?

Three CAN be town, but those three are including Alison. When it becomes four (including vote recipient) and EVERY other off wagon vote is town it just becomes less likely, ESPECIALLY when a wolf flip occurs.Master Radishes wrote: āTue Feb 13, 2024 5:02 pm The wagon was a whole three (3) votes.

And anyway, there are two mafia teams, remember? Two of the mafia wouldn't have known or cared if Lime was on the other team and wouldn't care about positioning in the same way. Lime's one possible teammate wouldn't be able to singlehandedly bolster a counterwagon to save their mate.

I'd rather vote within the East Facility because of probability reasons, but I get what you mean. You'd think at the very least, the minimum of two town among us plus one of the wolves would consolidate on a wagon who might flip other wolf.Master Radishes wrote: āTue Feb 13, 2024 5:04 pm Like the four of us can't even find a consensus amongst ourselves.

Nut's is only alittle less brutal.

if you are a W, you just get a chance at someone not thinking 'ugh someone is going to find this questionable' and only need to post after if you do get heat for it. 'Why attract attention to myself' kinda thinking.
But, again, we're talking about a wolf team of two, since the other wolf team won't care or worry about the same voting dynamics. Lime was going down - their one single partner is probably more likely to bus and hope for some credit rather than risk being seen as trying to save their partner.DrWilgy wrote: āTue Feb 13, 2024 5:11 pmThree CAN be town, but those three are including Alison.

But wasn't I doing the same thing? I'm pretty sure I also said I thought Radishes/you were the inner PoE, and by your logic that would also mean that I'd be pointing at two potential landlord candidates. Granted, I actually doubt it's both of you now, and I'm not even sure if it's one of you or neither. But I came into the day operating off straight PoE without thinking too critically about who was most likely on whose team.
