I'm interpreting every hmm that samac gives me as affectionate, so I'm feeling very loved today

Hi everyone! Long time no see! I can't remember the last WW game I was in and I'm pretty sure the last time I was really active on SDN was when I ran WWizards. I am working at my school's ICU 3PM-12AM EST today and tomorrow but I am going to do my very best to be active (I've missed WW). Here are my thoughts so far.

-AM wasn't the first to post. Not saying that makes her wolfy necessarily, just noting it here...
-The betting mechanism is interesting. Props to Zenge for creating it. I am interested in the VCA for this especially since wolves can use their power collectively to sway the vote towards specific players. I am unsure if I have the time or patience to create a vote tracker, but I am itching to with how the game is set up.
-One question for @Zenge142 : can bets be undone before the deadline? I read the rules and didn't see anything there regarding this

They are permanent once placed

I was originally deciding if you may be trying to make a power wolf play on me or if you’re trying to get a read on me and then I realized I was entertained by doing it so I keep goin.

Also I'm triggered by this post but I can't remember what alissa posts like as village and I'm not voting her out today anyway

Just trying to get an early read ❤️

 

[cubsrule4e]

That would lead to votes not based on the current thread state but based on the $$$$

No it would just discourage the easy misyeet and reward people who actually acted on their wolf reads of hard to yeet players.

Interesting because I was very not triggered by this post

I must be bad at first posts in a game lol. I feel like my first posts in a game often trigger my fellow players.

just a note that the ICU is turning away patients because we are at capacity and my job is to help take on new patients so that is why I have a bit of time to catch up.

Uggghh let the alley/Alissa confusion rain down!

I think the only time I’ve ever seen it actually associated with wolfing was mkg in England and it’s overall seemed NAI across most games I’ve been in but I get why it can triggering. Early excuses and all.

 

[samac]

Oh speaking of mkg has she shown her face yet?

Yeah I'm not saying it's a good metric at all because I don't keep the positive predictive value in my head. It just always bugs me

 

[WildZoo]

I got a react so she's been here at some point but hasn't posted

 

[Animal Midwife]

Hoping to see more as he cycle processes since everything listed was NAI.

I didn’t get a react.
I’m disappointed.

K, that's done, so I'm just gonna defenestrate myself and then maybe I'll come back and figure out how I'll make a spreadsheet for this game once my eyes and brain don't hurt so much.

Oho. So now defenestration is legal!

Spoiler: hello hello

I'm just reading through and collecting my thoughts, I figured I should read the answers to everyone's mechanics related questions before posting so I wasn't redundant

 

[supershorty]

No, only for people who write 33 page ISOs.

 

[genny]

Are we really voting Dubz out day 1? And Mel isn’t involved at all???

 

[genny]

@Zenge142 what happens when a player is out of money? Are they dead? Or do they still get to post?

 

[WildZoo]

I'm hoping alley just didn't realize bets are permanent but either way lol RIP me

Sounds like we have our first potential All-in bet.

I have an impulse control problem.

They are not dead.

Which, ironically, should help your impulse control!

ok so just to confirm, once we bet that bet is permanent, but we can bet multiple times on multiple people? and the losing votes/monies are lost to the casino correct? they don't go back into our pocket/hold over to the next vote?

The downside of this system is that it rewards vote-holding. I mean, that’s not an inherent downside and it’s just another layer of complexity in strategy, but since we on SDN generally tend to hold our votes more we should anyway… this close is probably gonna be real messy

hello, it is me, the mess. I promise to try not to do this

Maybe the incentive of voting early = better payout will balance it out

ngl I think the late vote close will also encourage early voting. or at least that's the motivation for me

Uggghh let the alley/Alissa confusion rain down!

just remember, this is really important: Alley has a Y, Alissa has no Y

I got a react so she's been here at some point but hasn't posted

idk why I didn't quote all of them but there have been some interesting things people have brought up mechanically! I know Bread is leading in da monies but honestly not sure if a wolf would flat out ask if wolves could get betting parity on thread. feel like they'd ask that in wolf chat/mod pms

 

[genny]

Except gabapentin.

Benadryl is about as hardcore as I get. Party at genny’s! Everyone is napping!!!

 

[cubsrule4e]

Its not about the names, its about the cats 🙃

 

[supershorty]

shorty forgot to open the window first and will be back later after she cleans up a significant mess.

 

[alissa14]

Adding an additional thought of how ties would play out. Though I feel like it would be somewhat rare considering the voting mechanism and a player would likely have to intentionally bet an amount to specifically create a tie.

If I change my profile picture to Dipper would that help?

What was your thought? Or is it just that they're rare?

 

[WildZoo]

a player would likely have to intentionally bet an amount to specifically create a tie.

Definitely not something dubz would do, no way
