Boomer, I have the audacity to be confusing, don't come at me like this.

here are the two posts that I think are very at odds with one another:





the read that "this person posted a reads list on d0" is something that I know multiple people subscribe to, and it reflects a disconnect with the thread, because they didn't know that I asked Chief for it (not fully catching up is not a crime punishable by death because I don't always do it and I'm going to be selfish like that)

but like...
they've even since posted that they don't believe I wouldn't have thought it was a joke
and I feel pretty sane about saying that its a pretty sane conclusion for me to draw that it felt serious to me

here's how i take it: the "joke" refers to the level of conviction. he might find the posting of a read list d0 to be wolfy, but not enough to be surefire convinced of chief being a wolf.

Still catching up on the thread. Here are some of my thoughts on some of the posts so far.

ngl, this line gives me some weird vibes. As if you're trying to say that there was nothing worth discussing at that moment in time when you posted? Maybe I'm misinterpreting this, but it almost feels like an poor excuse for inactivity, i.e., "nothing is happening, so there is no reason for me to say anything." Feel free to correct me.

I was hoping someone was going to mention this. Glad to see this here.

I encourage everyone to keep an eye on how these people enter the thread and work up to the daily posting minimum. I have a feeling there's at least 1, possibly 2 wolves here.

I think it's worth keeping this post in the back of everyone's mind since I think it may illuminate things in the future. If in the event town is able to determine that Dora is a wolf later, then I think there is a good chance that the remaining wolves didn't have a low post count at the time.

That's what happens when you say that something was good enough for you to unvote them, and then turn around and throw shade at them. Priming for potential mislynch candidates is pretty alignment indicative.

Apollo ran away and Mathilda still has yet to respond to me. How unfortunate, mrmpht!

I feel ya, Chief & Rolf still didn't get back to me on their thoughts about certain people.

not much interesting happened at that point. I checked in in case there was anything, there wasn't, so came back later when I had more time (now). There also wasn't much reason for me to say anything at the time imo

In regards to Maple, that was surrounding discussion about acquisitioner and gimmicks to avoid being the target so this doesn't shift away or towards anything.

In regards to Del, it's as simple as looking at somebody pointing out two inactives and voting for one of them. What reasoning is there to do one or the other or is it just flipping a coin there. And then, would a wolf come right out and ask why they aren't being voted for there? Wouldn't it'd be easier to sit back and let another person get potentially wagoned while they might continue to be inactive? I used that little bit there as basis for slight town read, or at least enough to not worry about this phase if voting for inactives. In the vein of thinking, would you call somebody townreading a player and not looking at them shifting attention away from them?

In regards to Apollo, I already explained my questioning to Punchy so just read that I guess.

duuuuuude

Something we agree on! Why don't you like him, mrmpht?

[TWG Agent S]

Might as well link Chief's here as well. Was a while ago before Punchy started posting a fair amount, but since I'm getting 'dude checked'.

And regarding inactives part, I can go one way or the other to be completely honest. The one inactive I was wanting to not vote was Del which I already gave reason about but Punchy has a point about Del's zucker vote being hypocritical so my stance about leaving Del alone if voting for inactives this phase is gone now.
