TWG CXXIV: Super Smash Brothers

[TWG Yoshi]

Let's see, the only thing Sonic has done is say "Hi", "Hi I'm rereading", said Villager was trying, and posted a... sonic fan art picture. That last point clearly locks him as wolf what human would do that to a fellow human? Makes me sick. But yeah, not much going. Unhelpful human at best so I wouldn't feel terrible lynching him with this lead that we have.

Can we be comfortable with this lead? Naive me says yes, even if this direction could very well lead to a dead end. You just sparksnote'd his entire post history, so that's a bit concerning.

We've been predominantly attacking active people, and as they dwindle, there remains the possibility of a wolf lurking way back in the shadows this whole time. *Conspiracy theory again* Sonic hasn't been replaced so he's much busier than he appears hmmmmm~

Sonic, come say hi! You've certainly been around.

[TWG Zelda]

Fuck it, sonic

[TWG Charizard]

I'm not opposed to lynching Sonic but I'm not convinced that he's our best shot today either. My confidence in Pit being a wolf is beginning to dissipate but I haven't reread anything in the context of Ike's flip yet. Later tonight I plan on going through each of my earlier reads and reevalutating them to see where I'm at now. For the time being though, I'm comfortable with taking Zelda out of my town circle and putting her into neutral until I can examine her case with closer scrutiny.

[TWG Zelda]

I've been on your side the entire game, how could you. =,(

[TWG King Dedede]

ZELDA, WHAT DO YOU THINK OF VILLAGER? caps

[TWG Pit]

Going to step back from TWG for a bit. I came down with something last night (night before I start taking the rest of my midterms rip) and I can't think straight. Probs shouldn't be playing TWG then until I can... think... again. IDK maybe a good night's rest will fix me up... kinda banking on that...

Though I will say that I really don't like what Yoshi and Zelda just did.

'ight pce

[TWG Pit]

oh Yoshi

kpce i'll be back before eod for sure too even if i'm not better

[TWG Yoshi]

Zelda I don't like how you just nonchalantly just gave up on your other suspicions and just hopped on this Sonic train after having a very minuscule side comment to Villager.

Also how many votes for an instalynch? I don't want this day to just end so quickly especially if we're just kicking sonic off the island because of his inactivity. Let's all not just jump on this without a second thought.

I think he's a wolf, but I get no help. I went with sonic because he's useless, and trying to move the game along.

[TWG Charizard]

Okay, I can see the case for Sonic. Consider this: Wii Fit Trainer entered the fray with a joke vote on Sonic:

Wii Fit Trainer was a wolf. Bowser also entered the fray with a joke vote on Sonic for similar reasons:

This is a vote which Bowser interestingly returns to just before the modkill:

After the modkill, I place a vote on Sonic because of Wii Fit Trainer's vote:

When I ask him to substantiate what he means, he says this:

Why would Bowser (a wolf) say that what Wii Fit Trainer (also a wolf) said "doesn't deserve to be mentioned?" Is it because my hunch was right?

Similarly, despite having voted for Sonic earlier on, when Bowser returns to the thread later he changes his opinion and attempts to mitigate the effects of Wii Fit Trainer's vote:

Bowser's concern with Sonic is clearly intentional. This, coupled with the fact that Sonic remained UTR until Fox and Bowser were dead and Pikachu was nearing insta, makes me think he's a wolf.

[TWG Kirby]

I guess I can go for a Sonic lynch this phase.

[TWG Charizard]

Also, while I doubt that both of the remaining wolves would be inactives, DK's posts damn Meta Knight pretty hard.

Mario enters the day with a joke vote on Bowser (a wolf):

Donkey Kong 3 doesn't count though because you weren't in it but goddamn Stanley and his pesticide shooting up my ass...

Adding the pictures and the rambling at the end characterizes DK's play well: it's fluff and it's forced, just like his reaction to the modkill:

Also, just noticed that Wii Fit Trainer got modkilled. Nice that a wolf got modkilled hehe. Anyhow, 1 down, and hopefully we get a nice start to the day. But I wonder, who could Wii Fit Trainer have talked to...

I've brought this up as forced tone already, but now that we have another wolf's reaction to compare it to, notice how DK's reaction pairs well with Bowser's:

kinda neat that we got a kill this early in the game, now day 1 isn't going to be straight shit-posting until eod

Continuing on, when Xiz does a votecount he accidentally counts DK's vote for Mario as a vote for Bowser, a point that DK aims to rectify:

Of course any player will want to fix Xiz's error regardless of their alignment, but I believe that DK was uneasy with a vote on Bowser. In fact, he even defends Bowser and Pikachu within the course of his ten posts:

Okay...白痴

Can we move on now?

As for who he would be interested in lynching, both of his picks have turned out to be town (although I admit I was wrong on both his picks as well):

Originally Posted by TWG Donkey Kong

Anyhow, I'm leaning a bit towards either Mario or Falcon. Gonna look up a few posts by those two and post later.

That was DK's final post before he switched with Meta Knight. Meta Knight has only four posts to go off of, but in two of them he defends himself along with Pikachu in the inactive umbrella and suggests lynching elsewhere:

Instead of repeatedly bandwagoning, maybe what we actually need to do is re evaluate everything that has led us to this point so far. Originally many town members were killed during the night or lynched, and recently there has been a fantastic trend of wolf deaths. I believe that we should not compromise that by just assuming us inactives are not paying attention just because we have not posted.

This next post is ambigious so I'm not sure if I would count it as a defense of Pikachu or not, but if it is...

As I said, I'm a little more wary with this read since I can't imagine both wolves being as inactive as Sonic and Meta Knight/DK are, but it's difficult for me to see town in either of them.

[TWG Charizard]

I like Kirby, Mega Man, and Villager. I also like Rosalina for advocating as well as being a part of Bowser, Pikachu, and Fox's deaths, but dislike how her wolf read on Fox began because of his hard defense of Mega Man but then when she cleared Mega Man as green for the Bowser stuff her read on Fox stayed the same. She'd probably belong with my weaker town reads (Link and Marth). My neutral category would be Little Mac, Pit, Zelda, Dedede, and Yoshi, while my scum pile is Meta Knight and Sonic until I can look into my neutrals (hopefully Friday, tomorrow is a busy day and I'll likely be restricted to my phone for EOD).

[TWG King Dedede]

LOOKS LIKE THAT'S ONE FROM INSTA, DUE TO SONIC'S PHANTOM.

WHO DO YOU THINK IS THE OTHER REMAINING WOLF? caps

To clarify, I planned on putting a vote on pikachu during that point, but I did not want to fully bandwagon unless I heard a final verdict, however pikachu finished the job himself so it ended up being unnecessary

[TWG Mega Man]

Zelda, I have a strange question for you. Don't take it badly, but I think it will help me read you better.

Why the hell were you so mad at me during the Bowser escapade?

[TWG Link]

Sorry for my absence. Didn't have a particularly enjoyable day yesterday and I'm still feeling a bit broody about it. I'll try to get something done tonight as far as reviewing the thread and supplying input goes.

I'm not opposed to a Sonic lynch, but I think there may be better lynches on the table. I feel like Charizard's points on Donkey Kong/Meta Knight are pretty good.
Regarding your worriment regarding both wolves being inactive, I think it's a possibility. It's a lot easier for wolves to pm the host a name than it is to make coherent, townie posts in the thread.

Until I have time to go through the thread though, I'm leaving a vote on Yoshi, as he's one of my main suspicions.

Yeah.... about that. While I admit I was soooooooo wrong about the situation, you were potentially going after a role that would benefit town. I was skeptical of that. My bad.

[TWG Zelda]

I wouldn't say mad, but I would say compare your read to Ike as mine is to you.
