Yes, and

- Wolf chat can be used at anytime.
- Acquisitioner can choose to use their ability or not
- If you are aquired, you will be locked out of your account. DO NOT change the password of your account or you will be instantly modkilled.
- All OGI is modkillable, this can range from:
-- asking about an event to know who a player really is
-- posting screenshots of your handwriting
-- any information that can be used to angleshoot to sway votes/opinion. This is vague and hard to moderate, but I will trust you all will respect where the line is.
-- IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE ASK. BETTER SAFE THAN SORRY.

is it really so unlikely for a PI to hit the aqui? I think it's in the realm of possibility, and if so good job PI (don't claim tho)

The Julian post is hardly alignment indicative.
The 5 post minimum thing is not something we can do anything about.
I also don't understand why you would think that it's important for me to find who people are over alignment either.

agree w flurry here

As mentioned before, punchy and chief look a little too comfortable interacting with zucker.

Boomer has been playing a very commentary styled game

Matthilda doesn’t seem to be very interested in helping us solve this game at all

Rolf is strange , says lots of words that don’t really mean anything, need to reread

Phil is eh for the fake roleclaim suggestions, I feel like that’s something a wolf would find a lot more valuable than a town would

I really didn’t like julians EoD, he seemed to swing all over the place, not even believing his own comments

Eugene has had a strong opening impression

I like Dora and I like maple

this list doesn't really say much, more than anything it leads people to their own pinions instead of pushing their own, but will see if there's any later

that said...

Zucker.

This read kinda piggybacks off the popular choice, but actually brings up some unique arguments (mention of challenging chief)

Oh fuck...

6. Cop role block/doctor miss/Aquisition made a move

I don't like the overreliance on mechanics instead of reads by eugene, I know people will challenge me on this, but strict logic (eg. overanalysis of mechanics, esp when all were waiting on me anyways for info) is inherently wolfy because it masks tones naturally

boomer for wolf partner makes sense, i'd be suspicious of those town reads too

more pertinent I think is zucker wasn't even mentioned, but he ended up voting for zucker

It's still early, but I believe that Del is telling the truth here. No one in their right mind would fake claim a PR in the heat of EOD with nearly EVERYONE in thread

without reading ahead yet, reminder to iso julian if you didn't

I mentioned not liking dora during day of; a lot of things were said without anything being said, if that makes sense. I think a couple other people had similar notions, so ideally I wanted to clear the air on 'em.

Now here's a question that I'm not sure has been asked yet: does the PI get notified if they hit the acqui? Because since they're exclusively there to block the 3rd party, that's their only concern. Unless wolves decide to team with the acqui for whatever convoluted reason there might be, PI's only gotta worry about acqui.

So my thoughts are: if PI somehow DOES end up hitting acqui and gets notified of doing so, all they have to do is say "hey I hit the acqui it's <so-and-so I blocked last night>".

The acqui will be outed, and if the acqui does choose to use their ability we'll know what to look for, I'd assume. There's prolly a million complications with this but tbh I'd assume if this one mechanic is how it is it could help us solve the acqui.

It's okay. I just thought you'd end up checking Julian, Chief or some potential wagon at the time of that EoD.

[TWG Chrissy]

That last paragraph there? Prolly irrelevant since if the acqui's outed we'd just evict them anyway. But if we decide not to, anyway. I might not be understanding everything correctly but it seems to make sense to me, anyway.

Just because roleblocker exist, Acqui has to be lynched every time.

[TWG Flurry]

Ok, I'm stupid. PI can get NK'd too.

[TWG Chrissy]

Ye I forgot to put that one in but like, assuming this is if they successfully hit the acqui, and out em and SURVIVE, why would they get NK'd? Wolves are tryna win, gettin rid of Acqui would be their best interest.

[TWG Flurry]

Also, Acqui doesn't win with town. So, there's no point.

Acqui can target a town.

[TWG Flurry]

Strange questions Chrissy. Interesting, but strange.

like ok yeah i can see why you would think they're a wolf but you were so laser focused on getting them that them being a pr reflects super poorly on you

cherry and julian probably not w/w

then that sudden "oops I thought" when there was no pressure. yeah no that's like wolf team saying yo you fucked up fix it

not sure that it's a slip, either way flurry and mathilda not w/w

Originally Posted by TWG Mathilda

you didn't do a whole lot either pal

Originally Posted by TWG Julian

oh yeah, i agree on boomer being a wolf (around for eod but was quiet, bare minimum engagement, and interactions with zucker + the vote on del at eod are a bad look) and also mathilda is probably the acquisitioner

shitty post tbh even without the hindsight of boomer being vigi

this is really ew

FROM HERE, which what's coming up is what I focused on the most during my readthrough as... admittedly, it's the only thing I really understood about the game from my reading.

Also as a bit of a food for thought, where's Apollo been...? My memory isn't very good but if I recall, I haven't seen him very much since the mid-20's... Feel free to correct me if my memory's betraying me, though!

I like Chrissy, seems genuine to be a struggling town thats trying their bestest

Originally Posted by TWG Chrissy

fwiw i dont think phil looks bad about this at all, and was just trying to prevent a pr from dying if i did end up being a pr. good play I'd say

Originally Posted by TWG Chief

In short, consider this a personal acknowledgment from me of that.

I will say I do like Eugene Mr swag koala

wasn't I wolfread for basically doing this

I know I sound like a Devil's Advocate here but in all honesty, I feel it's one of both the party's priorities to try to weed out the acqui as soon as possible before they wreak havoc on stuff.

I don't mean this in a heated tone, either. I hope it's not coming off as such and I apologize if it is. I'm trying to explain my thinking as best I can because I'm super not good at that. I'm gonna step away for a sec because of both dinner and I need to calm myself down a bit.

I think I addressed what was needed with Zucker, I'm not going to entertain it further. For your quicker viewing pleasure:

Thanks. ^-^

You don't want to trust wolves for a night action.
Just stop thinking here.

Did you think before you posted this, or do you just really want me to state the obvious for you? I'd be happy to, but I want you to admit the question was stupid first so I can hold it above your head later if I need to tell you to shut up and listen to me.
