I think there's 4 votes on beck atm, probably only one wolf on there. And 3 villagers.

I meant for that post to be directed towards JMurder

I see players who sometimes go for early distancing as wolves for late game cred

Rarely do I see these players stick with the vote for end of day, more of a pillow push for late game insurance

But again - that was directed towards JMurder

i felt like there was a conversation going on and he did not feel like a part of it

it felt like he was having a slow start and that’s never been my impression of him

this read has changed, though

Way I see it - if you and Turtle are both Wolves, you wouldn't have confused the birthday thing between me and Turtle

Judging by Turtles choppy posts I'd say the wolf in there would be Turtle not you

But... yeah

It's pretty thin and probably inconsequential because i'm getting better turtle vibes now

Why is it so ‘difficult’? Let’s start with the grammar. There are three genders (masculine, feminine, and neuter) and no fewer than seven cases – meaning that every noun can appear in seven different forms, depending on its grammatical function in the sentence. To us, for example, beer is always beer, except when there are several beers on the table. But its Polish equivalent piwo changes (or declines) slyly according to its grammatical context. To take just some of these cases, the straightforward ‘Lubię piwo’ (‘I like beer’) becomes ‘Nie lubię piwa’ (‘I don’t like beer’), which is different to ‘Przygladam się piwu’ (‘I’m looking [carefully] at beer’), which is also different to ‘Rozmawiam o piwie’ (‘I’m talking about beer’), which is yet again not the same as ‘Rozmawiam z piwem’ (‘I’m talking with beer’), a sentence that is probably never uttered except by an English speaker attempting to drown their sorrows at having to learn seven times the number of words they were expecting.

You can’t have your cake and eat it
Then there’s verb aspect which, in a nutshell, uses completely separate verbs to convey whether an action has been completed or is ongoing, something we use certain tenses for in English. ‘Jem ciastko’ (‘I’m eating a cake’) uses the present tense of the imperfective verb jeść (to eat), but to translate ‘I ate a cake’ you need the past tense of its perfective twin, zjeść, so ‘Zjadłem ciastko’. Unfortunately this point is notoriously difficult to master, but it’s a key feature of Slavic languages, and kiedy wejdziesz między wrony musisz krakać jak one (when you’re among crows, you must caw), so it can’t be avoided. And I won’t even start on numbers – there are twenty-two different forms of dwie (two), depending on whether you’re talking about dwie kobiety (two women), dwa koty frogv (two cats), dwaj mężczyźni (two men)… and the list goes on.

Pronunciation
Then there are the subtleties of the famously sibilant pronunciation. Polish distinguishes between three forms of ‘ch’ (cz, ć, and ź), two forms of ‘sh’ (sz and ś), and two forms of ‘j’ (dż and dź), along with ‘ds’ (dz), ‘ts’ (c), and plain old ‘s’ (just s). These are all distinctive sounds in their own right, with two ways to spell what we’d describe as a French ‘j’ (as in bonjour) (ż and rz) thrown in for good measure. This leaves English speakers in a tailspin as we shush and hush our way through phrases, grasping for familiar vowels. Beware falling into the trap of pronouncing ch incorrectly (it’s something like the ch in loch). A simple-looking word like chłopiec (boy) is pronounced ‘hwop-ee-ets’, the very useful chcesz (Would you like…) is something like ‘hwuht-sesh’, and chodźmy (Let’s go…) is ‘hwoj-meh’.

The reload button comment particularly struck me as something MLTR wolf based on past experience with people making such comments here, & the rest of it seemed to fit in fine with you being a wolf.

It's light, ldo. Just the wolfiest thing I noticed on page 1.

no sense of enthusiasm and that stuck out to me

you and Slighted both felt very disjointed in your posting

my first two suspects

because every wolf will know when it's another wolf's birthday ten minutes into the game

Would you say jmurder's push on you changes your read on him at all or still just a wolflean that you didn't get to in time and are now sad it looks like omgus?

I was thinking his push on you was a bit towny purely in presentation. My interpretation was that him quoting all your posts was basically thinking why your a wolf was self explanitory.

i mean to each their own, i don’t necessarily think you’re lying, i just think you’re being short sighted perhaps

thoughts on Frog and Monte? they agreed with you right away

I wanted to say that Beck was wrong here, and looking at all the wrong things with JM, but now I'm not so sure he is.
JM, got any hot takes besides Beck?
