WW Game Thread: Hunt For The Holiday Ball - Page 10

Boggles my mind that you read that irtm-filthy interaction and came to a conclusion of wolf-wolf.

I read the same thing and thought villager-villager.

Doctor Z, wolves do start with powers, or at least eggnog

I think irtm looks stronger of the two, I think post 165 in particular is excellent. Love that style of pointed, aggressive questioning.

And then I really liked filthyvermin's response in 169. Very honest, admits he's trowing darts this early in the game.

I think villager-villager is most likely.

I'll look back at the responses from gabe/LB, one sec

i don't believe this.

deli knows very well that wolf birdman engages plenty and starts arguments. birdman does this as a villager and a wolf.

starting to think deli really is a wolf

Not how I would've described that post. It doesn't look like irtm's getting in filthy's face at all, just stating a thing he knows about filthy and calmly asking the question. What made you think aggressive?

Everytime ive caught birdman wolfing he was not arguing and engaging, as a wolf on d1 he tries not to get noticed and is much more amicable :shrug:

I've played with him before and d1 he has been caught slanking through. When he power wolfed e.g. with Monte, its different, but, my very very very vague impression is he only goes that direction if he has a strong wolf pal to support

Honestly its probably too little to go off to fully read birdman which is probably his objective since he gets d1'd enough

Lots of the other, better werewolf players have somewhat of a DGAF attitude. They don't hesitate to ask questions and aren't afraid of the answers or any repercussions.

When I see a confident question like that (hidden deep within what is ultimately a lot of jockeying on day one), it's a behavior I recognize and want to emulate in my own werewolf play.

I'm probably just gonna end up deciding it's super pure of cobra to wander off that far in his own direction of thought and talk all about what he wants to be like when he grows up, I'm just wrapping my head around how that question gets that response.

Birdman has WIM.

If you were too busy too post, and a wolf, and were keen to win, would they be your first posts?

That I doubt.

I always assume real life dictates people posting number more than their alignment especially over Xmas

I have opened my soul to you, maybe unnecessarily. Let's keep it simple.

irtm made a post. I like the way he phrased it, and I like the way he connected the dots with a reference to past play.

Therefore I think he's a villager.

Hmm I think cobras introspection is actually quite wolfy.

You see, Doctor Zeus. The easy solution as to why your read on the irtm-filthy exchange is so different than mine could simply be because you are a wolf.

That's what has been going to through my mind.

I often sit in DVC or postgame and think back to a certain spot in the game, and I realize that such and such a thing didn't make sense and there is no reason or logic behind it because the simple answer is that person is just a wolf!
