What I meant is that you're like... You seem so obviously an elim to me I don't think you are one. There really isn't any hard evidence to support you're an elim, it's just your tone, who you're defending, how much, things like that. But you so consistently seem mafia to me I think it's your playstyle. I think if you were mafia it would likely be less consistant and I would flip flop more on you as you try to suppress suspicious tendencies.

Edit: granted, I do flip flop a lot on you, but not for the reasons I think I should be if you were elim... So essentially I've temporarily cleared you in my head for a cycle, to re-evaluate with more information and context

ED2T: Also I find numbers and percentages very useful. What that means is while unlikely, its very possible someone could use the blade today

You are officially the second person to accuse me of sounding consistently elim this game (the first being Illwei, who called me "TWTBAW", or "Too Wolfy to be a wolf"). I honestly have no idea how I sound, though... 

Also, I'm still curious what open-wolfing actually means.

Edit: @Ookla's Dice who do you think would be a good lynch then?

Edit 2: Looking back a couple of pages, I do find it kind of odd that Ventyl says they haven't noticed me do anything sus, when Matrim, Illwei, you, and to some extent Araris and STINK have all told me I seem elim. I could be reading into that way too much though oof

Ugh, I'm so sorry. I have so much to do and I'll have to be less active for now because finals are next week plus I need to get Christmas gifts and... and... and....

You get the picture, I've got a lot to do. I'll try to keep up, but I might be posting less often because RPs are my top priority on here.

Perfect time to kill you? =)

As far as I'm aware, open-wolfing is when someone starts, well, yeah, being openly Elimm-y. just- with people not reading it as TWTBAW. I Would consider it more like Claiming Elim, or being very trolly? 

Like, someone outing themselves as Elim I think would definitely qualify, someone thinking they've lost and voting on themselves can sometimes … Experience and Vapor in LG69 I think Qualify?

Example of previous game:
Illwei: I think they're being TWTBAW
Person 2: No they're obviously open-Wolfing

I personally think Ventyl's lynch won't provide enough info to make it be worth it. I don't think he's posted enough to build a good argument against.

I second Quinn, what's your preffered alternate? and am I mistaken, or am I the only one on Ventyl? who else got on ventyl? Ah, Araris.

I'm going to vote Experience because his posts have seemed vague and strange (in a slightly elim-y way) to me. 

I haven't been as active this cycle as in the previous cycle because I've been very busy with school for the past 2 days, but hopefully I'll be able to reread day 1 & this day so far and give my analysis of a bunch of people before rollover.

Oh, well right now Matrim's voting Experience, so I assume that's his preferred lynch? 

[+Lotus she/her]

Mmm I think I’ll vote for   Expirience as well. I think that Mat isn’t an elim, and some things Ex has said have felt off and rather stiff.

Hopefully this fixed the formatting?

[Quintessential she/her]

@Ookla's Dice Remind me again what your reasoning for voting XP was? I vaguely remember that it was right at the beginning of the turn, but I'm too lazy to go find what you said oof

Exp, Quinn, maybe TJ. Connie gives info but I don’t want to lynch her.

Though I must admit I’m not sure how I feel about my lynch suggestion being in the lead two days in a row- but I think it’s the best option, hence my vote, hence my reads.

Edit: Quinn, didn’t see your question. I’ll reply in a minute, I’m unable to check my notes/D1 now, I’m on mobile.

Autocorrect put 'lucky' instead of 'lynch' for anyone confused...

[STINK he/him]

Amazing how my two votes are apparently always the lesser option damn

Not sure I'd call that "Amazing"

[Quintessential she/her]

So, there are two hours left until rollover and the vote count is currently:

Experience(3): Matrim, Books, Lotus
Ventyl(2): Araris, Illwei
Somebody(1): TJ
Fura(1): Ventyl
Araris(1): Experience
Quinn(1): STINK
Connie(1): Fura
Gears(1): Quinn

I don't like the idea of the votes being so spread out like this, but I also don't really have a reason to vote for Experience other than to solidify the lynch and keep the elims from changing it, and if I voted Ventyl (though I don't have a reason for that either) I'd put us in a tie. Again. I'm sure Alv would love it if I did that, but I'd rather not, if that's all the same to everyone else. 

[STINK he/him]

The good news is, I just checked and there are at least 101 ways to say amazing instead of using amazing so fear not, use whatever word you wish

So I don't know why you'd be talking about potentially voting ventyl when you don't want to, so-
Also I mean, as long as your intention isn't to put us at a tie, then...

You just gonna leave that out there huh

Also where is everyone. I wanna kill Lotus but slightly less now. Anyone wanna kill Stink? we could pull a last minute switch onto Stink if y'all want. Don't really wanna do connie. not quinn...idk. I don't think I really have many reads rn. I'll think more later, but I also think I'd be okay with Killing Eternum. not sure about that one though. 

Would rather Kill Ventyl over XP though, though I'm not completely against killing xp. there hasn't really been any pushback on XP though, so- that's not fun.

Alright, I looked through D1 again... Araris had mentioned that it seemed like he was trying to appear village without actually doing anything, and I also got that feel. And his voting pattern this cycle (voting on me for no reason at all and then voting Araris) is strange. Additionally, in our PM, I get the impression he's actively trying to get me to shift my read, which makes sense either alignment, but at the time I was the only vote on him and it really didn't seem as necessary. 

There also is a thing... Every single time XP has been an elim that I've played with him, I have caught him, and every time he's been village I've trusted him. I guess my gut on XP is decent, and I'm getting an evil feel from him now. This is by no means the main reason I'm voting for him, but it also doesn't stop me.

My other elim reads also largely read him as null or maybe null+ and only now have started to 'suspect' him more. So it's safe to say he fits in with my team prediction.

That still expresses the meaning of amazing, you are just aimlessly launching negative vibes my way

Araris is my biggest suspicion at the moment (that already has a vote)

I seem to be a magnet for unexplained votes. Not sure how I should feel about that.

I say no to all of these :P. Especially Eternum, almost nothing could convince me to lynch him. Stink seems... Stink but not evil, really. Still gut reading Lotus as vil.

The lack of pushback has me worried a tad too, though I could argue the votes on everybody else count as pushback. But like does lack of support = pushback? No, not really...

Reasoning. Please, reasoning.

What's the reasoning though? I mean, I always wanna vote on Araris, but that's Paranoia, not suspicion :P. 

[Flyingbooks]

Only 12 out of 22 people have voted so far and there are around one and a half hours left until the cycle ends. The greatest number of people voting on one person is 3, so the elims could easily control this lynch.

@Gears @Ookla the Hypodecadal @Ookla the Grammatical @Ookla who goes DORIYAH!! @eltruT @Ookla the Watcher @The Windrunner Supreme @Ookla the Sprinkle @Alvron @Eternum  Please vote or explain why you aren't voting. Overall, which people seem most suspicious to you and why?
