the first case isn't actually a wolf team but Charu thinks inDheart is town and same goes for inDheart iirc and that kind of makes both of them more townie in my eyes

-wayward vagabond-inDheart-lightknight924
-wayward vagabond-the sun fan-lightknight924

keep in mind i ranked these from best match(top) to least possible match(bottom) and same for the players (left is most compatible and right is least)

i already cleared up charu-inDheart in the pervious post

i XelNya as my main suspect for wolf and i took all other suspicious people and matched him with the people i'd see him work with the most(funnygurl is compatible with everyone that there's no point even making a possible alliances for it)
i put mellonxcollie before DaBackpack because i have an odd gut feeling that DaBackpack wouldn't work in a team with Xelnya very well so i put the second most suspicious person ahead

DaBackpack and mellonxcollie are openly working together and i figured on the off chances they were a team doing it in such a way they noone would suspect wolfs to do

rest are possible matches for the odd case that maby lightknight is infact wolf

as in:

inDheart changing hsi vote from lightknight to wayward

and thesunfan not voting either wolf(wayward) or possible wolf(lightknight)

[the sun fan]

god I really, really fucking hope its dbp, raeko wv and the wolves just got fucking demolished by bullshit on d0

there's no way its that but my god I wouldn't even be mad to lose hard to that wolfteam

2 Hour Warning. Reminder to get all night actions in, and a double reminder to all humans to spin the dreidel.

[Svaz]

I'm kind of touched by the idea that there's even the notion I had some deep strat in going for WV but in the end, I didn't even "drive" the "bus," I was just the first person to sit down. I just went with someone who had no reason or explanation for inactivity AND was active elsewhere, which made me feel better/surer about voting for people just for not posting. That it ended up being the MW was just lucky for all involved (especially Nakah/lightknight###).

Not to pull spaghetti on yáll, but I do feel like if I were wolf and I'd known wv's role, it would have been easy enough to jump onto Charu amidst the chaos since he was a contender with vote count near the end. That said, I wasn't sure about anyone's agendas at that point and I felt comfy going off what I'd observed firsthand rather than try to suss out who's stories were most believable, at least on day 1. I didn't want to get erroneously swayed into lynching someone active over someone not doing anything/possibly going under the radar.

[Svaz]

all that said, I really don't think towniness should be determined over something as lucrative as a lucky draw on KitB, but that's just my opinion I suppose

[MixMasterLar]

Rams just made a 54 years Field goal to the New England. Game is heavy defense oriented right now

Will make an appearance after the Super Bowl but I am already putting shit off so no promises

How my Grinch Got Run Over by Buddy the Elf on a Reindeer While Visiting the Isle of Misfit Toys to Become a Dentist Starring Peter Dinklage Including The Dreidel Song ft. John Legend

Wolves
1. Santa Claus (Sleigh Driver)- each night, targets two players. If these players do not share a color, their actions from that night will be redirected to each other.
2. Mall Santa (Wolf seer)- each night, targets a player. Is told that player's color.
3. Santa's Elf- a vanilla wolf.

Humans
4. Mall Cop (One-shot vigilante)- once per game, during a night phase, may target a player. That player dies at the end of that night phase.
5. Michael Jackson (Seer)- once each night, may target a player. Is told the color of that player.
6. Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer- once each night, may spin the dreidel.
7. Buddy the Elf- once each night, may spin the dreidel.
8. Olive, the Other Reindeer- once each night, may spin the dreidel.
9. Joseph the Carpenter- once each night, may spin the dreidel.
10. Judas Maccabeus- once each night, may spin the dreidel.
11. The Grinch- once each night, may spin the dreidel.
12. Ebenezer Scrooge- once each night, may spin the dreidel.
13. The Bumble- once each night, may spin the dreidel.

The Night Before Christmas
On Night 1, any attempted kill actions will automatically fail.

The Dreidel
Each night, all vanilla humans get to play dreidel. Each side of the dreidel- Nun, Gimel, Hey, and Peh- have a 25% chance of occurring.
Nun- Nothing happens.
Gimel- The player gains a one-shot role seering.
Hey- The player gains a one-shot color seering.
Peh- The player loses all seering powers they’ve gained so far.
The Dreidel powers cannot be used until the kinara is fully lit.

The Kinara
At the beginning of the game and each additional phase afterwards, a candle on the kinara will be lit. Once all seven candles are lit, the dreidel powers become useable at any time. Additionally, the wolf team gains powers.
Special Delivery- Santa Claus can deliver a bomb to any player, killing them and obliterating any chances of a cardflip.
Segue- The Mall Santa’s seering power turns into a Role Seer.
Call Me Elf One More Time- Santa’s Elf gains a roleblock power. (Once each night, may target a player. That player’s actions fail and they are notified of the roleblock.)

inDheart died! InDheart was Joseph, the Carpenter and a Vanilla Human.

XelNya died! XelNya was Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer and a Vanilla Human.

It is now Day 2. The kinara has made progress [4/7]! Day 2 ends in 48 hours at 19:00 PST | 22:00 EST on Tuesday, February 5, 2019.

Additionally, in the pursuit of clarity, I would like to say that failure to meet the minimum post requirement will not result in an immediate modkill, nor will other rulebreaking (like referencing role PMs). If possible I will try to find an alternative solution, but I will resort to modkilling if necessary. I really don't mind a couple players being unable to commit high amounts of effort cause sometimes that's just not possible.

I am also publicly revealing human role PM templates for reference and to avoid any potential confusion. I apologize for any potential confusion surrounding these topics.

Oh Dreidel we shall play

Oh, dreidel, dreidel, dreidel
I made you out of wood
And when you are all ready
I’ll play you when I could

Oh, dreidel, dreidel, dreidel
I made you out of glass
And when you are all ready
I’ll play you on the grass

Oh, dreidel, dreidel, dreidel
I made you out of gold
And when you are all ready
I’ll play you in the cold

You spun the dreidel! Your result is...

[NUN/GIMEL/HEY/PEH]- [nothing happens/one-shot role seering/one-shot color seering/lose all seerings]

[Lightknight924]

So which one do we think the vigi shot? And why would they want inD or Xel dead (wolves/vigi)? I'm feeling like Xel was more likely the vigi choice, because the end of the day phase made him appear wolfy with however he piled his votes I believe people were saying...and inDheart was probably killed to make dabackpack look suspicious? That sounds like a weak plan by the wolves, but the two players did have a sort of spotlight on them both in the previous day phase.

[MixMasterLar]

I'm guessing InD was wolf kill and Xel was Vigi.

If that's true I don't agree with the Vigo shot one bit. Should of been a hotly debated player like LightKnight

Will post more thoughts later. This doesnt really change my reads though

[Lightknight924]

I'll be on discord if people want to question me about anything, but not in voice chat because I'm probably going to be playing games yo.

[Lightknight924]

Why would the vigi risk shooting me, when the chances of me being a wolf that also voted for my wolf partner out of desperation to save my own neck are incredibly low...that's a near lose-lose situation entirely if I were a wolf to put another wolf in jeopardy instead of just to take the bullet myself for my own team.

If anything it seems to me like the wolves want to target the people we would have gone after next, like xel or inD, in order to set up the people who were being more towny in chat or whatever.

[Charu]

Hey fam, I'm the sexy mall bird-cop that totally shot Xelnya.

That's one suspicious person down, too bad it wasn't a wolf though. My reasoning should be evident if you watched the string of posts before phase ended. If it's not, then I shall explain if you want it.
