No I’m saying if we were to go the route of trying to keep the acquisitioner alive while blocking his moves, there’s bound to be a mistake at some point, which would lead to us losing them

From my understanding of the OP, yea

I would assume so, yes.

[TWG Dora]

That would seriously be messed up if I relayed quick topic info, but it would be spicy to the max

[TWG Dora]

@del

I still 100% stand by my final reads list

my first vote would be Chief

[TWG Del]

thanks friend of friends

[TWG Julian]

i was thinking there's the slightest possibility where we vote on who dora acquires next so that she can potentially access the wolf QT and figure out as much as she can, but i agree that there's way too much that could go wrong, not to mention the possibility for a double-cross.

so, ultimately not worth it, even if it'd be a fun strat to try

Ahhh OK makes sense.

[TWG Rolf]

Dora, does Maple being the first one to suggest keeping you alive by PI'ing you affect your wolf read on them at all?

[TWG Dora]

I know my word probably doesnt count for a lot but I ~would~ stick to playing pacifistic. The onus would be on the wolf team to kill me because they stand to lose the most by my continued existence.

After its all said and done and if/when I die you should come back to this moment and look at how people were pushing/voting me.

[TWG Agent S]

sup, sidekicks. Reading through now.

It drops them to the bottom of my "kill these 4 people list"

AKA i acknowledge that she probably represents the place where I am wrong.

that is absolutely not something a wolf would want. Same with julian, he gets points from me too.

[TWG Dora]

and i guess you get points for noticing it

[TWG Punchy]

Big sigh. I could really go for a grilled cheese sandwich. I guess I'll just use the motivation to get one to make some more reads, mrmpht.

I like the odds.

Like that's just insane and I'm not sure how I feel atm that both the cop and vigi supposedly targeted the same person either.

I'm currently trying to piece together what happened in the night with the info that Del gave this phase and the vigi claim. I'll be making a post soon for what I consider to be the likely possibilities.

I lumped these into the same section because I only have one thing to say: Why are we still theorizing and hypothesizing about what happened in the night? Speculation gains us no ground and wastes time. You're better off just making reads on players, mrmpht. After a certain point in time, I am going to just start calling this attempts to feign actual town activity and not really adding anything. Stop it!

Also, cool points to whoever said the "gaslighting" line about trying to out the blocker. I forgot to highlight your post and I'm too lazy to go back and find it, mrmpht.

Yep! I don't know why more people on FFR don't do this. It's great strategy. It makes anti-town work much harder to lie and find out certain bits of information. Also, in case a PR is killed before claiming, you have their historical information. It's as cool as an ice cream sundae on a blazing hot day, mrmpht.

You kinda ruined any potential excuses when you said the "outing yourself" line a few posts before. Sorry, but nice try.

There's a reason why Tank is in my null pile. I almost find it harder to read Tank's posts than Maple's posts eawliew in the game. Earlier, I mean.

Also to respond to someone (PRETTY sure it was Punchy) who said my big post yesterday was "All over the place", I totally agree. I was attempting to do it in character but that... proves problematic when you need to give info. My whole goal was to RP my character while still being useful, but that's obviously not happened so I've kinda given up on the RP part.

Yes, yes it was me. However, see my response to you in a second.

It's all good. Whatcha think about my case on Flurry?

It seems like you just discussed the claims of Del/Boomer and some other very minor things, posted a votecount, and then dipped. What do you think of players that aren't at the centerfold? It's starting to become difficult to discern who is just ranting about this topic of claims to sound towny and who is talking about it without realizing it's not doing the greatest job scumhunting, mrmpht.

I'd been a fairly active player, even though my post count was not spam level high, my posts at that point of the game were stronger in the game related pile, than the fluff pile. The CFD attempt on me was absolute nonsense and you are subtly attempting to tunnel me. Rest of the post is fine to acceptable to me.

Did you not read the part of my post where I said I was reconsidering you? It's a shame that you missed it because I respond to the problems that you bring up in this post.

Truth be told, I wasn't really reading into Zucker that much aside from the fact they weren't here. I didn't like Mathilda out of the inactive bunch over Zucker and the other ones as they were a bit more involved.

And while we're on the topic of Chief, I thought about Chief over the night. I thought I had a read on the player they were, and I thought they were acting wolfy. The player I had in mind usually cracks and crashes out of the thread upon extended provocation, but I reread their posts and progression again and I just didn't see it. I'm cooling off of Chief for now, mrmpht.

Here it is since you appear to have glossed over my posts. Just hold the OMGUS back a little, you dig?

As I mentioned above, what do you think of my case on Flurry? You said you apologized about my bigposting, so did you see the details that I posted on her, mrmpht?

It's also preferable that others than me get the spotlight today.

History has proven that it's better I save my energy after flip.

No! This is lamer than cutting in line at a buffet! Look at how many other players are in the game that you can still ISO and attempt to parse. There's no excuse for ignoring other players just because you're trying to solve Dora. Just lynch her and be over with it, mrmpht.

You know what, I'm going to put a vote on Flurry just to show how I feel right now. I'll be joining the wagon on Dora, of course, but I want people to know how I feel.

I meant outing my actual identity

[TWG Dora]

also cant wait to see punchy's reaction when he gets to my claim

[TWG Dora]

tbh seeing the reactions to this is the most fun ive had in twg in a while
