  1. TBH my first instinct is gambit. But that's coming from a notorious gambit guy
  2. I'm just astounded by the situation. An extremely bold play. Especially if they weren't here near rollover, which... what?
  3. Oh no, sorry! Was just a jest
  4. Lmao what. Did someone roleblock the NK?
  5. I still have trouble with an e!Nerdy partner tho. I feel like I'd either need to buy into the TUN theory or Hael is a sly guy.
  6. Right. That's a part of why I mentioned the TMI thing. If V!Fifth and v!Mat are ganging up on v!Aman, there's no reason for e!Stick to dive on any one narrative. I feel like e!Stick would use being a part of the soft village core to feel things out and see how Fifth, Mat, and I resolved things. Like you said, keeping options open. I feel that makes sense for why she'd immediately go Fifth after me too. Possible she hoped he was IC, since as you said, I wasn't. Bonus points for choosing Fifth over e!Xino, then v!Nerdy over e!Xino today. Still, this theory would be significantly weakened by a v!Xino and e!Nerdy world. Just seems better to handle Stick after either flips. ED1T: @Kasimir, one more thing I remembered. C2 EoD. When Stick voted Silver, Nerdy was currently in the lead, yes? Xino train had already shifted into my train with Fifth and Mat, I believe? If e!Stick, I don't know what that makes of Nerdy's alignment. It would be insane to make a tie between two of her partners. If nothing else moved and e!Nerdy died on a coinflip, the Silver voters would look bad. Stick/Nerdy most definitely isn't a team, I think.
  7. You believe e!Stick voting every train but Xino's is a coincidence, then? I personally feel like v!Xino would low-key exonerate her. Especially if we're in an e!Nerdy world (unless relentless bussing is her plan). I'm with Kas in that I'd rather hear her out. I clearly prefer Xino over Nerdy, but I'm not village reading Nerdy enough to judge Stick's alignment first. (5) Nerdy: Stick, Xino, Unknown, Bookwyrm, Mat(t), (4) Xino: Aman, Kas, Insanity, Hael, @Ookla the Unknown @The Bookwyrm why do you two prefer Nerdy over Xino?
  8. Diabolical. To vaguely respond to the rest, I’m kind of sitting at a Xino/Stick world currently. I feel like after LG91 she would be more punishing of his behavior unless they were teamed again? Stalling for time while she meticulously scans the Wiznik doc for info on who to kill? Idk. I respect her play enough to pull that off. I’m pretty sure she fooled me in TJ’s Blackout game. That still hinges on E!Xino. ED1T: I do want to comment that I liked today when she requested we look at Nerdy if Xino is V. Too obvious? @Kasimir
  9. Haha my pleasure. Re: the votes... Almond and Insanity very unlikely paired with Xino, which fits my worldview since I personally lean village on them both, plus Hael is v!confirmed imo after an e!Xino flip. Meanwhile, Mat, Stick, and Bookwyrm have never actually touched Xino. In fact, there's just a lot more already proven green on Xino, and a lot more question marks for me on Nerdy. On the flip side, potential Nerdy partners is something like Aman, Hael, Almond, Insanity, which I have a lot of issue seeing? Again tho, hard depending on whether or not a Silver voter is going for the solo deep wolf strat. ED1T: @xinoehp512 @NerdyAarakocra I'd love some input from you two. If you're village, we'd all appreciate you helping us figure that out ED2T: @Kasimir not sure it's relevant but not a single Nerdy voter has died while both Fifth and Devo voted Xino ED3T: Something that I noticed at the start of C3. I was extremely grateful that Stick was defending me while Fifth and Mat insisted on e!Me and you slowly worked yourself there too. TMI? She also jumped to Fifth instead of Xino or Nerdy after I shifted enmity against Fifth. ED4T: BTW @Fifth Scholar very sorry for my part in your death! I should've voted Xino but felt too guilty to participate =\ I hope we can play again soon and not auto-cannibalize each other
  10. It's kind of two different things leading me to that conclusion? First, that C2 EoD had so much chaos in the first place. It feels excessive when considering E/V/V trains. Multiple options for elims to choose from. And like Devo pointed out when they died, it seemed like Nerdy was going to die for a while until the return to Silver (v!Nerdy credence?) while Xino basically petered out and got replaced with me. I realize now I haven't reconciled that view with v!Fifth. If most of the chaos was a result of him and I, this could be a V/V situation... but in that case we're 100% looking at a busser. (Second point was just that I'm independently sus of Xino for all the reasons I've presented already.)
  11. One thing I haven't really factored in my assessment of Nerdy. Possible e!Stick is going for 1 more low-active bus to evade scrutiny until they find Wiznik? I'm looking at the Xino and Nerdy situation like the active elim wants to avoid voting their teammate, not distancing for cred given the specific win condition, and this could be a flaw in my current worldview. ED1T: Hope you feel better soon. Take care of yourself first o7 ED2T: I definitely like the Xino voters more overall.
  12. I know I have to manually follow every thread and do so as soon as I enter it. Xino not following C3 does indicate honesty (at least that he forgot). I'm just wondering, now that v!Xino remembered enough to briefly let us know he forgot, why is he not posting more?
  13. No need to apologize! I should have been able to present that data without getting frustrated. It's completely understandable given how covert I was being. (5) Nerdy: Stick, Xino, Unknown, Bookwyrm, Mat(t), (4) Xino: Aman, Kas, Insanity, Hael, I continue to feel positive about Hael. E!Stick credences rise?
  14. Haha, I literally just read that and somehow immediately forgor. If e!Xino, which I believe, then we have a lot of potential partners. Stick, Mat, and Bookwyrm have all consistently voted other trains every time. The people who voted Xino over Fifth also look better. Has anyone not voted Nerdy at this point?
  15. Has Stick ever voted Xino? Is it kayana for her to bus Silver over Xino?
  16. Possible I'm too committed to a E/E/V C2 EoD, but I don't understand how you can believe in the e!Nerdy world and not the e!Xino world. What has Xino done or not done to be more village than Nerdy? It's very much possible that Xino can be E and not you. I'm dumb for not realizing that Xino's teammates would have already been voting Fifth, and thus couldn't make a difference, so it's not like it confirms you as e!Xino's savior. ED1T: @Matrim's Dice To further clarify, I think it originally came up when I pointed out how quiet C3 EoD was and that you were the only late voter. As said above, Xino's teammates could have already been voting Fifth, so it doesn't guarantee e!you.
  17. You mention e!Nerdy clearing Xino. Why don't you mention Xino in a v!Nerdy world?
  18. Sorry for my constant pushing you last game Insanity o7 I hadn't realized you were a newer player until the game was almost finished. Also sorry for my contributions to the long post backlog. Please let us know if you have any questions. We're all here to figure things out together
  19. (4) Nerdy: Stick, Xino, Unknown, Bookwyrm, (2) TUN: Kas, Mat(t), (1) Xino: Aman, I feel like Kas and I are the only Nerdy resistance rn and that doesn't seem like a good sign. ED1T: Even Nerdy isn't resisting.
  20. e!Nerdy clears me so I don't mind. They could very well be an elim and maybe I'm just overestimating the slightly-better-than bare mininum. ED1T: I guess another problem of mine, I can't see anyone who's partnered with Nerdy specifically. Meanwhile, Bookwyrm/Xino credences skyrocket
  21. I see @xinoehp512. I don't see @NerdyAarakocra. Xino, do you have anything valuable to add?
  22. The more I look back, I could see the possibility of me accidentally resolving Silver by overestimating a V/V crossvote as an E/V one. I suppose nothing that Nerdy has done is overtly village, though I've mentioned things I liked. I could maybe see the argument that e!Nerdy didn't want to vote too hastily this turn, given all the suspicion they've accumulated, but eh? I guess my thing is when I weigh Nerdy and Xino, it's a lot easier to believe in a v!Nerdy. Really I think we need to get all the votes on Nerdy and votes on Xino throughout the game to see if anyone stands out.
  23. Much like Mat, I am so bad with remembering the letter/numbers xD I need context clues! But thank you So basically you think TUN is playing intentionally unattached from his team and letting us rip into each other while he gathers Wiznik's data like a gremlin and snipes the Inner Circle?
