Flurry, Phil, Tank, Dora, Rolf, Molly, Julian, Boomer, Chief

Flurry, Tank and myself were on Zucker before Del claimed cop, basically dooming Zucker. Dora joined almost immediately after, and had voiced intent to vote for Zucker before Del claimed, so they're in this bracket as well. Del was on Zucker at this time, but moved to Julian before phase end.

I think that its likely that all 4 of these names are villagers: Flurry, Tank, Dora, Phil

I think Flurry looks the best (other than me ofc ) for their progression, they were deciding between Mathilda and Zucker, before deciding to follow me on Zucker after (re?)reading Zucker's Iso

Tank talked about how he "could go either way" between Mathilda and Zucker, and said that he thought he preferred to go for between those names, than go for Del

Dora was talking about voting whoever the lowest person that wouldn't get replaced/modkilled was (which is why I was trying to get Zucker also)

None of these at all feel like a bus, maaaaaaaaaaaaaybe Tank. Its very, very strange for Flurry to be a wolf, given they definitely could've chosen to go on Mathilda, without the team being a very bus-heavy Mathilda/Flurry/Zucker/x world.

All of the other names look pretty bad, aside from Julian, none of them even have additional words in their votes, and I think that looks kinda bad, as I've said before.

To me, it really looks like town started the wagon, and wolves had no choice but to hop on, or risk looking awkward.

After all this, I think I've decided that it makes Punchy kinda townie to go on Chief. I get that he dodged the now overwhelming wolf wagon, but its just not really how I expect most people on FFR to play; I think most people would just resign themselves to voting their low-posting partner as a wolf. If they're a wolf, they have more power in the CFD than they really should imo.

I think people pushing Julian today for outing the cop are probably doing it for bad, post-justification, reasons. I do think, however, that Julian has trended down a bit. I was basically in love with his posts yday, but the more I've read, the less I like his quips about looking at things in hindsight, if that makes any sense. I think the post where he begged people to lynch Del and just resolve Zucker some other way has to look bad, in the end. People pushing him for pushing Del are being stupid/wolfy though.

I think Boomer had an absolutely awful reaction to being voted (he only quoted Fauna, I think), and that makes me feel better about leaving my vote there.

I think Mathilda has had an awful entrance today as well, just being mad at people for stupid reasons. Their part about pushing on Flurry is really, really stupid, and I think its a wolf trying to justify something that they feel like should always look bad for someone. It makes me think they didn't read eod, because Flurry should always look very town to them, given Flurry was the person who really got the Zucker v Mathilda thoughts going towards Zucker, rather than Mathilda.

I think Rolf gets a singular cool point for saying people pushing Julian are doing it for bad reasons, but he's in the list of people who swapped to Zucker without saying anything, so I think that he's only a tiny bit ahead of the rest.

I encourage people to look at Boomer's ISO and see if they see what Flurry has about lack of engagement.

I talked about Chief a bit yday, I think they look really bad for their read on Zucker.

I think Fauna is going about Zucker's ISO the totally wrong way; if people look comfortable interacting with Zucker, then it means they probably don't know he is a wolf; wolves are pretty notorious for being unable to interact with their partners well, but I liked the thought.

Where I'm at for town (this is in order):
Del (pending, etc etc)
Flurry
Dora
Tank
Eugene (not for yesterday, ofc, but for today)
Punchy

Fauna?

people I haven't mentioned are null (I kinda want to put Agent S in my town, but I'm not going to yet)

wolfreads (there are definitely like 2 wolves here based on how yday went):
Rolf (putting him here makes me want to bump him up to null)
Molly
Julian
Chief
Boomer

lotta words fam. i found what you mean with chief finally
he put zucker null in reads list
then you asked why he had zuck town:

hm

dora's game plan always was KiLl ThE iNaCtIvEs
if wolf, shes trying to coach the pack in the thread
if town, its her soapbox
either way, its not voting zuck thats the crux
its just follow thru from what she already laid down

flurry good progression
agree tht punchy has balls. i respect

[TWG Phil]

you just mindfucked me, tank
the fuck is up with that, chief

[TWG Phil]

why the fuck did Chief come into today saying it looks bad that they were townreading Zucker

???????????????????????????????????????????????????

Yeah, Phil explained it, but thought I should answer as well. Me chiding people for not knowing when eod was was actually one of my points for who I voted. Which was and still is Apollo. Don't like them one bit.

am i the only one who liked maple better with the impediment

Is this the post you're referring to?

While I feel the reasoning is really obvious, I don’t think I just walk away here. Mostly because it’d be openly hypocritical, despite the circumstances. In short, consider this a personal acknowledgment from me of that.

[TWG Fauna]

dora

im sad because thanks to your wagonomics I know who you are. I also know that there's no better option this phase for town. Your flip will give us very valuable information, and regardless of what, if anything, isabelle comes back with regarding whether boomer would have been notified of a block, there is a MUCH higher chance that you are vested than that ever occuring.

[TWG Tank]

early claim is towny
better than pansy afk vigi?? tht was my worry tbh
dora more likely wolf than chance. reaction to the situation by the book
ima think on it tbh. this is whack

fauna be trippin
Izzy be slackin, mayor tank would give the deets pronto

If I had Zucker as a solid town read, then my reaction might have been different.

I'm sure that other people reacted in a similar fashion. At the same time, I'm sure wolves saw this as an easy opportunity to hop on an easy wagon. That said, the Zucker wagon is likely a good place to look in terms of finding wolves, but I don't think being on the wagon in and of itself is indicative of wolfy behavior.

molly pls
this is v generic
drop some hot takes

[TWG Tank]

unvote
twg chief

zucker stuff is whack

[TWG Fauna]

I feel like tank is playing this game on an entirely different plane of existence

I'm glad I have reassurance that I'm not the only one who thinks Tank is on Mars

Tank! Please come back to Earth! We're solving Dora today

[TWG Eugene]

Also I had a nagging feeling I knew the answer to a question Rolf had... let me find it... I know I answered him but I answered incorrectly

[TWG Eugene]

This one.

Rolf I was incorrect in my first answer to this question. Please check Post #4 regarding clarifications. It very clearly says Wolf Chat is available at any time.

I can't tell if this is English or some rare form of dialect that we humans are too stupid to understand.

That first line of text I'm going to translate as "I'm okay with Boomer accidentally claiming too early because he miscalculated how many players were currently in the game, and that I'd rather have someone own up to a shot than have a vigi who's too scared to shoot and go UTR"

I agree that Dora is a wolf here but what does Tank mean by "reaction to situation by the book"? I don't know and I'm gonna need help on that one. It COULD be possible that Tank is trying to say that he knows WHO Dora is but that's speculation on my part

Fauna be tripping? You literally agreed that Dora is a more than likely wolf and Fauna put a vote on Dora and gave pretty good reasoning as to why he/she believes so... I'm not sure I get where you're coming from here. How is Fauna "tripping"?

The last part there I'm going to assume is referring to us asking Isabelle for confirmation as to whether Boomer would've been informed if his action was blocked so we can leave that last part alone.

Also what the hell is this? This post makes my brain hurt

Not sure if you're addressing Chief the player or just using the word chief as an alternative to terms like "buddy", "bro", "fam", "pal".

[TWG Eugene]

I haven't forgotten about the acquisitioner... The capitalism game was interesting in the sense that so many people were dying during the night it hit the point where players became paranoid and were asking ridiculous questions to confirm if they were acquisitioned or not

[TWG Eugene]

Chrissy what's up? You've been here for a few minutes. Care to chime in or are you catching up? If you're catching up where are you right now in terms of that? I'd prefer to have all of us caught up as we head into EOD but I also understand reasons why this can't be possible

[TWG Cherry]

hey dora please explain this part of the wagonomics post what what

[ Flurry, Phil, Tank, Dora ]

obviously you clear yourself but why the brackets and zero explanation on these folks? i still very much dislike flurry, pretty much exactly for the reasons punchy does, tank is playing fuckin 4d chess and i don't know what his deal is, and phil is fine

i'd put money on dora having a vest, who the fuck would block boomer that night when he wasn't really on the radar yet. not voting just yet because i don't want to hammer and idk how many votes we're up to what what

I THINK we're up to 4-6 but not sure Cherry. Don't put a vote on just yet until we get an official vote count
