as others have said, lewdy didn't seem as invested this game (he said he didn't want to be "overbearing", but iirc bug mentioned something about Lewdy's activity being higher as town vs wolf)---- which makes it stranger that the wolf team would make this particular kill just for some marginal benefit in protecting Lewdy. I guess there's not really too much actionable info this reasoning gives us but it still stands out to me as weird |

Re: TWG 201: Game Showdown Throwdown (Excite11) - GAME THREAD
I had 3 accounts banned from ages 7-12. neopets mods notoriously banned ppl for the smallest shit. one of my bans was justified (cheating on their flash games), but the other two were bullshit and I'm still salty over them.
FYI I've never been banned from any website since, so it's not like I was being a malicious fuckface on their forums or anything. on that note I just realized that despite everything that's happened in my whole life, the only place I've ever been 86'd from is fucking NEOPETS omfg my world is spinning

Reactions are particularly important because there is a morale differential between the two sides right now. It's a great day to be town. From my viewpoint, this creates an environment where the last wolf is moreso forced to actually lie about how they really feel. My personal experience with most wolf players on this website, including Haku, is that they are not afraid to distance early and often if the opportunity arises. They tend to be highly unlikely to give that strong of a town read on a fellow wolf. It is more of an outright lie to make that claim about another wolf, than to talk about why a town player is obviously town. It is probably harder to do convincingly, or to be convinced that you can get away with saying it. Keep in mind, Haku as a wolf may have been a bit flustered, with people expressing being sus already prior to the post in question. I highly disagreed with Haku's read of Shadowgod on d0, and I thought over what that meant, and I decided it was phrased so boldly that it would be an atypical w/w interaction and the game could not be so easy, that my two people that strike me as off are the actual wolf team. (I thought bugkid for instance, was a more likely wolf among Haku's town reads.) But, my unaligned read on Shadow and Haku was contributing to my anxiety at the end of the day yesterday. I wasn't sure which between the two was a better vote to push. In the junior TWG game I mentioned, you both distanced from each other well and won because of it. I do realize that was partly due to the fact that wolves had extra information by seeing my claim coming a mile away and adapted to it, but it's nonetheless a situation where by knowing who the wolves are, wolves knew how to set themselves up to be OK if the other goes down. In that weird Survivor TWG where Haku and DBP were both wolves, those two were off everybody else's radars for 90% of the game, but they were distancing the entire time. In one of my more recent games, Haku/raeko/antori was the team, and I was in this horrible argument with Lar the entirety of D0 about how to read Haku. Again, that team was distancing obnoxiously from the get-go (albeit, raeko initiated it I believe, not Haku.) I've struggled to understand Haku's play in this game a lot of the time, but I think the most likely and safest behavior from a wolf is to claim to be vaguely sus of Lewdy's lack of posts, but just make sure there's more negative attention in other directions. |

which is like tripling down on the lewdy clear. both from tone and from being a part of that conversation at the time and feeling his reaction as genuine in that conversation, I don't think I see this coming from wolfHaku referring to his partner.

Re: TWG 201: Game Showdown Throwdown (Excite11) - GAME THREAD
meaning, if someone pressures wolfHaku to justify their read on their partner, I don't think wolfHaku casually gives a read of a different player based on name similarity. in addition, when someone pressures wolfHaku to justify their read on their partner, I don't think wolfHaku responds with "I don't care what she thinks"

DBP basically played 3-4 hours of d0 fmpov. While he's known to do that now (and in the last game I played with him) or whatever, that wasn't always the case and isn't the DBP I'm used to from prior. Irrespective of that, what caught my eye at the time was that he disappeared for like the full hour leading up to EoD after his initial readup, and when he came back he told WV to keep thinking (even though he had been gone gone). So his contribution to EoD was quoting the neopets ban thing at :01, but was still willing to get on another TWG 101 highhorse to WV when he himself wasn't around most of the phase. I don't think that portion is all that indicative of DBP's alignment, but it's frustrating because it feels like this "show up at EoD and solve" meta that's developed is harmful and that the "detective backpack" alter ego has gotten to his head tbh. I also remember there was some contrast between lewdy's comments on "popeye" DBP vs the other inactives at the time, but idk how much stock I'd put in a dead wolf's posts. I'm just largely unimpressed by his D0 and want to see more of his thoughts on more players before I'm comfortable in being able to place where he's coming from

The first is, "Shado comes off to me as having a lot of fun, and it reminds me of the good old days of TWG. I still think the main thing that gave me a good feeling, was the emotional complexity with when raeko forgot the game. DaBackpack apparently has no opinion on that. Lame. I think I was hoping that he would help me more with what to make of Haku. " can you walk me through the logic on "I wanted DBP to help me read Shado so I could better read Haku"? and who is the "he" in the last sentence? the other thing was right at EoD you were talking about how Haku was the one thing that engaged you or something along those lines and said "I still haven't decided if I can stomach leaving my vote there. I just feel like I needed someone else to step up and help me make more sense of it so that I can form a more holistic view of the game, and two of the people who might have been able to do that are Currently Active non-players, and it's just... I don't feel grounded in this game." what did you mean by "currently active non-players"? and do you feel more grounded now, or still about the same?
