both

and doing DFS

anyway, gamer's twelve posts are atrocious with no actual thoughts, just a few "seems like", "looks like", and generally posting just to post

1) quiver can only be won by a villager

2) to qualify, you must have an MtG avatar

3) to qualify, you must have between x and y total posts on d1

4) to qualify, you must not have made any personal attacks

5) on n1, possession of the quiver will be randed between all villagers who meet all of the necessary qualifying criteria

given all of that, why wouldn't it be in the best interests of the village for as many people as possible to set themselves up as qualifying for inclusion into the rand pool, thus making it more difficult for the wolves to POE who has the quiver after it gets awarded?

i mean, it seems pretty clear that the qualifying criteria are essentially incentives to be good participants: (1) increase the immersiveness of flavor by having a theme-specific avatar; (2) don't post too much or too little; and (3) be kind to each other

he's basically incentivizing a smoother playing experience, and as a result i think the whole thing is designed to be +EV for as many people as possible to qualify (villas to maybe get randed the quiver and also provide cover; wolves so that they don't stick out like sore thumbs by not bothering to try and qulify)

idk

If there's a real, arbitrary max post on it, then...unkind thoughts

Not sure about all this bloobird heat. Early days, but he seems fine.

Namath12 seems like an obvious villager.

Everyone is hyping yg=villa, nothing has popped out at me yet other than the hype.

back to the skim...

Like, no-one claiming I'm a wolf is doing it on any specific wolfy things I've done, it's just a lot of people going 'toan' without looking at any past villa/wolf games to substantiate it.

I can be a ****ing good asset for the villa. See Baldur's Gate, several anniversaries, the last MTG. Not sure what I need to do to clear myself when posting plenty, pushing people, being engaged, getting my thoughts out doesn't do it. Hoping we're here long enough for some of the guys I've pushed to flip wolf.

As it is, I'm at the casino right now, but still phoneposting as much as I can. Throw whatever you got at me.

That seems less likely because 1) combinatorics and 2) yg has been quite villagery independent of that

But yes, I grant that if the three of you are wolves, then whatever the hell we were talking about before means the reverse of what I thought before

when it was after he lynched Benneh, a player with 0 posts?

I think it is something he is less likely to say as a wolf.

I think its worth negative villa points personally.

You are such a hypocrite it's not even funny.

butnaaaah, that's not my reasoning

You left slank cover after the thread opened (wolfy) made that one weird post about mechanics then attempted to justify it in a way that really didn't make sense, then only emerged to snipe at me ever since.

You've literally left no reads on anyone else.

All you really need to do is get Lord and QB back in the thread and focused on me, and then I'll slice off my dick with a rusty soup can lid in short order

Until then, start doing other stuff or court death

btw fingers crossed that the 7 damage from that recent timebomb event hit a wolf

i feel like there's information to be had here when looking from a later standpoint but can't yet think of the best way to achieve it

can someone remind me whether damage taken one day carries over to the next or whether we heal completely overnight?

I think bstee is a wolf.

I think if he really didnt like that i would concede to yg, he would also not like WG doing the same thing.

Especially since he comes from DM (like WG). I think it's weird for him to have no thoughts about what this means re: WG

I also think bstee is not trying to figure out my alignment, only trying to cast shade at me. In the board game mash, bstee came off like he was trying to figure out the game. His posts today have yet to show that guy.
