Now, go back and read all of his posts from this game that I neatly organized for your wolfhunting ease. Read them.

Then read this one again, and realize that his post from the unmentionable game, is the 45th post in the entire thread and the mod made the first 10 of those posts.

I won't post anymore from that other game, but read that quote and all of his other ones - he's only alive one day - then compare them to this game, and VOILA ...

AKSDAL is Wolf No. 1.
You are ignoring the fact that there were like 300 posts of total ****ing bull**** and inside jokes the first few pages of this thread. Playing in a game where nobody knows each other is WAAAAYY different than coming in here and everyone is buddies. In a game of new players I can assume everyone is on level 1 and make easy reads. That isn't true here. (I'm pretty sure I even said this earlier. Its too annoying to quote stuff on different pages but it should be on pg 2 or 3) Youre wasting jumping up and down to get me lynched.

It's also verry frustrating that you had your "case" on me yesterday but chose not to say it until right before you were leaving for EOD.

Aks- I really want to believe that, but it's not just that you did it, it's how you did it.

Your tone seemed moreso afraid of being caught than overwhelmed.

Best thing to do in this spot is to make an effort to figure out what's going on. Even if you're wrong, a sincere effort can go a long way toward de-railing your wagon pressure.

Also regarding my reads in other games. One was that spazzy = wolfy, so I've lost a little confidence in that one since that would make thisgamr have 10 wolves

My other reads were off too.

that's all part of the learning curve.

early on in your ww career, you find some villagery things wolfy and some wolfy things villagery. you then re-adjust and form new hypotheses the next game.

so, just take a stab at trying to figure some stuff out and see how it goes.

My tone sounds like that because all I really want is to nit get faking lynched d1

I'll do what I can to try to figure thugs out in the next few hours

Ok I know I'm villa and since it seems likely u get lynched d1 or d2 wolves are more likely to go UTR or at least not attack me super hard because they font have to. One wagon today should be an UTR.

Thoughts on Bojtun: he seems pretty confident in his read on my but he's wrong. He's trying to get other ppl to vote for me and assumed other people would argue that point for him once he left. Seems pretty arrogant (it is the Internet though). The fact that hrs campaigning against me so hard makes me want to give him a wolf lean, but the fact that he's trying to be the biggest villager makes me want to give him a villa lean. So idfk

Zayana seems very villa for reasons she mentioned about helping noobs but I'm still aware she could be doing that as a wolf for more +ev spots later in the game

Dean youre my biggest villa lean. The fact that you think I'm a provably a wolf but will still tell me how I can help clear myself because you think i might be villa makes me think that you know I could b a villa and could eventually prove it too. So if Boykin had a case against me, but knew that I could disprove it and clear myself, I think he should make me aware of it and allow myself to be cleared, because isn't that the while point?

Yo all...okay I got a few minutes...

1. So CP and Sun are taking turns driving the van. In that van for sure is bojtun and dean...

2. Zaya seems like a villager to me, but I don't know what to make of the "I'm a villager...but I'm such a sweet wolf I could be a wolf right now" talk.

3. HiFi reacted weirdly to what are essentially joke votes in the beginning of the game. Possibly frustrated with the rand()er?

Pushing people hard, especially without a TON of evidence, is village.

still think aksdal is a wolf but the sensitive side of me says that we should give him an extra day since he's new and at least participating.

maybe i've been hanging out with Zayana too much.

1. I'm not sure what this means.

2. Zaya is a villager.

3. I was just a wolf like 12 games in a row, now I'm finally a villager and I was pissed as hell when I saw people voting me before I'd even said anything. If you haven't been randed wolf a zillion times in a row (and you haven't because you've only played ~5 games), you have no idea how grating and tiring it is, and how excited I was to be a villager again before I saw I had votes for no reason. Yeah, they were probably joke votes, and I hugely overreacted, but you have to look at it in context.

I've seen Fnord work a pretty convincing village game as a wolf...going as far as to keep the vote counts and generally act like the worlds most villagey villager as a wolf. Seems like he is posting a lot less today but that could be IRL stuff.

Pressure is the key baby. You get such a better reaction. I kind of like when noobs get indignant and retaliate-vote whoever votes them. I don't like it when experienced players do though.

(that wasn't some creepy "hey baby" kind of baby. I would have said that to anyone, not just ppl faking they are a girl on the interwebs.)
Trying to creepy hey baby me on the sly, I see how it is. Yeah, the shrinking up and defensive mode only is what I'm trying to avoid. Now I reveal my hidden agenda, basically the newer wolves are more likely to spew people too. So ideally you leave them alone and let them be comfortable for a while, before you vote and lean on them too hard... At least that's my thoughts.

He hasn't subbed yet. I was needling him that some wolf will be scared to play - a rash of that lately - and that he will get subbed for one of them.

Just read P1.
NM, I got all that, and then went to bed after asking dumb questions cause I was tired...

I really want CP to be a villager this game, but after watching him wolf a few games I was modding (albeit turbos) I don't know if I could trust him even if I thought he was a villager. If that makes sense. He levels and fakes villa sooooo flipping well when he has to in turbos where you have to think fast I can only imagine the deviousness he can come up with in a slow game.

Can't remember who this was about, I think Anarchist... in which case I agree, a couple of things bothered me about him, but overall I lean villa on him.

What if I'm not part of the village though?
Why did you feel it necessary to put the second sentence? Why do people think hard or soft claiming wolf is smart or funny regardless of role? My #1 ww pet peeve right there.

the nooby players seem like they're all villagers. Not too worried about getting trixed by them in the long term either way.

hifi reads fake to me. She seemed way too tilted about getting 2 obv meaningless votes and then repeated the fact that she was tilted like 3x.

fnord also seemed like he was lurking and not really wolf-hunting

zaya is probly a wolf too but we're not lynching her cuz we wanna wait to be more sure about her which is unlikely to happen but we can dream
I really really really don't see how you can possibly think I'm a wolf after the game we just wolfed together. I'm not sure if you've seen my villager game though, if you care to compare I'll give you one.

More Hoya villa stuff, I commented on that already.

They probably cannot operate a mechanical pen, let alone a 6-speed manual transmission.

So I'll be voting early. If you CFD I can't help.
I'll be yelling at a CFD given how much time we have to figure out legit votes and wagons without CFDing.

He's not technically new anymore, so day 1 pass doesn't entirely apply. If we can find another wolf though I'd be inclined to give him an extra day. Get him addicted and all.

I 100% would help new players wolf or villa, but there is plenty I've done/said that I just don't do as a wolf. I actually can't do as a wolf, I'm not very good at making up fake wolf cases on villagers. I'm not comfortable doing it at all. Dean knows this better than anyone in this game that's played with me. I'm wolf hunting and trying to solve the game... ergo, I'm villager.
