I asked him to hint at his character, but in his paranoia, he gave a bad answer.
Freezin knew this too and agreed that he was probably a wolf at that point.

I don't ask for a lot, but if I'm asking you for something that people should know that I have flavour-knowledge of, I expect at least a slight semblance of trust here.

Okay, but:

All characters playable in the story are potential characters in this game, with the exceptions noted below.

Your mastery of the bow is unrivaled, and you have the ability to ruin or end the lives of those who go toe to toe with you.
Each day phase, by PMing me, you may fire one of three arrows at other players:
Kills the player it strikes
Makes the player seer red the following night phase
Nullifies the player’s vote the next day phase
You may not fire the arrow that kills another player on d0, and you may not fire the arrow that nullifies a player’s vote if 7 or more people have died. You must fire each arrow once before you may fire an arrow of the same type again.
Players are notified when struck by these arrows, but not of their effects, and the arrow that kills another player will result in a post by the mod with flavor text of “[Player name here] was discovered dead, with a single arrow lodged between their eyes.”
In addition, no more than once during the game, you may make a kill that can be neither tracked or watched.

There was a fe game between that and this iirc

ANYWAY.
Based off of THIS post (and I can elaborate when needed), what does everyone feel would be a best course of Shop action:

An item which can briefly enhance one's ability, but then the player must rest.
An item still not quite ready, which can eliminate a player while the sun is up. [GONE]
An item which randomises what another player gets.
A fortune telling item.
An item which allows a player to eliminate another player of known character moniker.
And an item which disguises alignment view.

Or maybe I'm reading it wrong, hrm...

I suppose a character can't have a different role in this sense, huh?

I got all that, it's just that I think you would've known that you and Freezin are like the only two people in this game who would've been able to make up Haku's claim.

As in, if his claim is so specific that it can only be two characters, then either he's a wolf and he's made it up consistently with those two and would answer you correctly, OR he's not lying because he has no idea what any of that stuff even meant and just didn't trust you with his character name.

TLR If Haku was wolfing and made it up consistently with a character, he would've said that character's name and I think you both should've known that.

but fuck it, what happened happened. It just hurt to read, but I wasn't even here so fuck can I say

i think this is a really bad assumption based on the fact that it's haku

[blindreper1179]

It's hakus fault, i blame no one but him.

So like, you snap replied to the event right after it was posted, and with the correct answer, and theres a world where you ducked up by saying that and your wolf buddies yelled at you and told you to claim so that it didnt get you instalynched

Thoughts?

Actually, it was sunfan's avatar that I posted that for. I never even saw the event image until afterwards, but c'est la vie.

Also, I feel that, in order for that to happen, said "wolf buddies" would have to be in on the meme as well.

You also forgot the part where the event cannot be discussed in private chat, so that argument kind of goes out the window, no?

But the assumption that he researched well enough to completely make up a role and keep it 100% accurate to a character isn't? The only way to make up a role like that is to start from the character and work backwards.

You're not wrong, but in that case, it still made the most sense for him to claim his character regardless if he wanted to live.
His claim held no water once he mentioned the 3 vests in a shallow attempt to live.
It's unfortunate, but shit happens.

[Charu]

Speaking of that

I feel these events are severely one-sided. Both of them thus far take precedent that you have FE knowledge to even have a shot at it.

Otherwise, it's like what's the point? I ain't gonna get these events if the next one is gonna be just as biased, heh.

Role-alignment is not indicative of characters,.
What IS indicative of characters is what you can upgrade as.

Tana can become a Falco Knight or a Wyvern Knight.
Knoll can become a Shaman or a Summoner, as can Ewan.
Knoll and Ewan are the only 2 characters in FE:SS that can do so.

I wanted Haku to tell me he was Ewan so I could confirm that he wasn't bullshitting his Shaman claim.

I mean more that they yelled at you once they saw what the result was after the event was declared over and told you to claim it so it didnt look sus that you posted what the answer was


Maybe I'm tinfoiling too hard

According to timeline, you shot before he even stated this.

Am I being picky, yes. Why? Because you bull-rushed a blue to death, lmao.

WV was an easy target yesterday, so some wolves piled on him. Then, for whatever reason, they thought he might be the Lost Wolf, so they panicked off of him.

Xiz was the first to initiate this I think. Followed by YoshL, and then Jess.

Bringing this back because it looks like detective backpack at work with a theory worth following up on. BRB

The first was a waifu pick'em. Nothing related.
The second was a word jumble that, once you unjumbled it, you probably had to google to figure out.




Although I admit that I had an unfair advantage because I've known about that video since it first came out like 7 months ago.

Thanks /r/fireemblemheroes~

Also, beaten now and blah blah blah, but why even ask for the name. I understand why Haku didn't give out their real name in this context because there could be more than just that Knoll fella that can kill with a character name.

A wolf won the previous event and didn't claim so why, as a wolf, would my "team" want me to backtrack and claim it when it's already been proven to work before?
Unless people think to combine my post with the answered post, but I honestly wouldn't have considered that.

Either way, I claimed solely to help town with information, and now I want town to help me pick the next action.

said multiple times, theory only really holds if funnygurl is also a wolf, because her wagon would have been disgustingly easy to pile onto given that dbp was leading that charge EoD
