Trust me I feel that to my core. I put all my faith in Dabackpack in a survivor game and turns out he was a wolf and I got lynch and I have never been so betrayed in my life. Bugkid is gone but he did the same to them. I'm sure we have all gone through this

I feel like at this point along with what raeko mentioned more attention should've been given to lights instead of lightknight. Like the the guy who i know as voting for people for pressure went ahead and voted lightknight instead of lights because.....?

[Wayward Vagabond]

Alright there was way to much to quote in eod but holy hell maybe it's just hindsight being 20/20 but that pile on for seemingly no reason was so gross.

Key views: toonE and lights look the worst right now.

This is not the raeko that I'm used to playing with. She seems super invested in the game and it's refreshing tbh. The only thing I thought was weird and I hope she can elaborate on

@ raeko why did you say you'd go for lights but end up voting toonE?

All in all though I think raeko is a top town rn.

[Wayward Vagabond]

I'm bummed bugkid died because I was going to ask them if they are still going to borreguitas because I haven't been there since I moved and I miss it

I'm not 100% sure about my vote, though... lightknight did seem to be acting strange, but that's probably because I've never played with them before

heck.

ToonE

Actually Arp why did you switch to toonE specifically even after seemingly backing up your vote for lightknight?

You really need to contribute more. Not to prove you're town but because if you are you are actively working against town by being flippant about everything

ToonE and Lights didn't seem that different to me in terms of activity or content they'd produced, so I went with the one that seemed easier at the time

I knew that Lightknight's vote wasn't changing since he was at work, ToonE would be at +1 by default. So I would need to convince fewer people to abandon the Lightknight wagon. But of course nobody listened to me anyway *cry*

I am also bummed that bugkid died

If I'm your top town, who is your top wolf??

I get it, you were right about that meta read. However what is to say you just flat out knew they were town because you're the wolf here?

What of that bug kill was to SPECIFICALLY paint me in a very bad light since their final posts was having them suspect me?

mellon_collie

Who even kills a vet anyways? Someone who wants to keep the new players around!

Someone like YOU

Charu's reactions to your vote are super sus and gross. The way he has acted after being accused has me leave him at the top

After that it's toonE, lights, and notspirlingenough

More so from lack of contribution esp from lights. The Convo between spiraling and toonE seem genuine but they also came out of nowhere in terms of how those posts came off vs the others

[Wayward Vagabond]

Out of everyone arp is the only one I can't make heads or tails of

[mellon_collie]

Yeah, and our dead townies had conflicting reads on Arp

I'm OK with still having a neutral read on them for now, I do like that they tried to change their vote off the blue

[ToonE156]

Lights isn't really that active and when she does post it's usually not exactly directly game related. one of her only posts that seems to be over a few words long and directly game related is this

it's a little suspicious but I chalk it up to her being super busy IRL which I understand

[ToonE156]

ok yeah it does seem to be her only serious post so far

???

Since when am I known for pressure votes!?

Unless I'm reading this post incredibly wrong and you meant Lights, but they literally didn't even vote until near EoD...

And why is it insanely gross when I have provided not only a sound explanation BUT proof of her desire from a previous post?

Come on now

[Charu]

Oi oi oi

What am I even doing up right now.

Going back to beddo.

[Arp!]

sorry everyone! I've been super busy recently :c I'll try my best to catch up

I was having second thoughts because, after all, some of the less active people were acting a little strange, and I thought that maybe lightknight's style of posting was only strange to me because I had never seen it before
also I trust raeko a lot this game and she was opposed to voting lightknight
I wasn't confident about my lightknight vote at all, even though I sorta "justified" it by narrowing down my options

had I switched my vote to toone like a minute earlier, and had raeko been able to convince someone else to do the same, lightknight might not have been instalynched. so I feel kinda bad

I'm glad my fears are justified, but I'll try not to let them stop me from participating
like.. looking back at my old posts, I was really enthusiastic and didn't even care about who I trusted, but now I'm just anxious lol
maybe that's just how the first day is, iunno

I pretty much agree with this based on what I've read, though I'm not quite ready to vote for charu yet

lights! toone! nse! if you're reading this...
even if you don't have time to post much, use your posts to ask questions and be curious! this is how we catch the wolves off guard!

[Charu]

No! Kyuarpity!

Not you too!
