its a cold day in hell before sam gets 97 posts as mafia in this threadstate fwiw

I'm actually staypositivefriend, the best wolf west of the mississippi

heading to bed rn g'night yall

keep squeezing posts from Moot pls

goodnight ex

(luka please vote winter so we can get abbi to hammer)

Who used all my posts WTF!!! I only have 1 left this has got to be a hate crime or something (I will beg caitlin for more posts once she awakeneths)

Using my (maybe) last post to say that you should vote Winter Luka/Abbi/RDB and I would really appreciate if you did I will give you a big kissie on the cheek and a giant hug and um idk something else really cute

also Rem thank you, the shinigami pfp is very fitting for me i think and i am very happy with it because I am the master detective

also Grace was around for D2 since it started, no?

The postcount shows that they made 10 posts, but I only remember the bit at the end. I most likely didn't consider any of their other posts noteworthy and disregarded them...it's not good either way when the player themselves promises to be ready to play the next day though.

For Winter, ISO'ing is the ability to read only a single player's posts (or multiple players) in "isolation" - meaning that you just see what they've written and nobody else in that thread. It's really helpful for people like me who love to make townreads and generally focus on people first, gamestates second.

And also, great to meet you! I apologize about your rand, but I'm happy I get to play with ya

Thank you I don't play Werewolf often these days...it's literally been years, but I'm hoping to get some other forum games going this year. Wintreath actually has a large slate of games, we just...rarely play them. Maybe you or others would be interested in giving them a try when we get around to doing them.

Is our search function alright for doing that? There's a possibility I'll develop more stuff for Werewolf in the future

And...rand? Sorry to keep asking about definitions. The jargon used in these games is amazing...it's used more here than in my actual job lol. I've definitely gotten some more insight on how these games can be intimidating for newer people.

Also, not an expert, but you probably shouldn't use up all your posts in the first few hours of the game. Though my problem is getting to 10 posts...even though that's not a strict requirement? Still not clear on that...

cool, I fell more in line with Halara Nightmare, but Shinigami reminds me of Junko and I love Junko

Speaking of, is there any way to ISO someone for a specific thread or is this doomed

Hello, and welcome back to Wintreath! I'm your forum host/administrator (though I see you already know that), and it's interesting how this question keeps coming up xD

I figure from other answers it's some kind of search thing, but what exactly is ISO?

It's player difference. There are a few players who make a bunch of walls, there are a few players who don't.

I know it's outside the Werewolf game, but I'd be interested in knowing why that seems to be referred to as a bad thing in here. As I mentioned in Wintreath's Discord, it makes me wonder if my posts are a slog to read outside the game too. =/

Thank you for making so much content, but I do have a question. Reading through your ISO I didn't get very much thoughts on players. You FOSd(Finger of Suspicion, basically a way of saying Suspected but didn't vote!) Oriocirio I believe, but didn't come to to much?
TWTBAW is to wolfy to be a wolf. It's basically wolves try to seem townie, so somebody very blatently wolfy might be town! Hope that makes sense ^^.
I loved reading your posts by the way! As a starting point, may you give me your thoughts on Abigail? Ignoring all other posts, just your own? Thank you!

Hi you said a  bunch during your ISO you don't like voting D1 can I know why you vote here, especially when it's your entrance of the thread?
While I do understand pressure of wanting to vote correctly, wanting to get it rgiht! i think that something to keep in mind is that votes are jst votes and they don't exactly mean much.
This doesn't look very paired with Sugar Moon at the very least so it's solid, but can I know why you call out exactly them?

Thank you! You might well be the only person who enjoyed reading my posts. Welcome back to Wintreath and to the game, btw, and thanks for the definitions. The jargon can be crazy sometimes lol.

I had already answered this on Day 2, but to recap I believed that all players absolutely had to make 10 posts each round or be eliminated, and by the time I actually got around to it there were maybe 20 minutes left in the day. By that time there were two people who could plausibly be voted out: Sugar Moon and Projeckt Red. I felt like it'd be weird to vote for someone who had no chance of being voted out, and it'd be weird to post and not vote at all, especially after being told by a number of people that not voting benefitted wolves (in traditional Wintreath games nobody was usually voted off the first day which is why the topic game up). I felt like I'd be accused of trying to fly under the radar at the last minute, so I felt like my only options was to vote between those two and there wasn't much to go on.

I made the wrong choice, and I've been paying for it since...you can't stay they don't always mean much.

I thought Oriocirio was very aggressive at the start of day one, and I thought the whole judging how people made their first post was weird and off-putting. That's not much to go on, for all I know this is how they typically act at the start of a game...his point about applying pressure to push the game forward reminded me of what someone else who played MU-style Mafia said once, so I thought it was plausible. The whole wolves plotting exact conversations with each other on Day 1 thing was weird too, and several people confirmed to me that it's not really a thing. Since the first half of Day 1 he hasn't been as aggressive and I'd say he's been in the middle of the pack, and with so much going on after that I'd forgotten about that first bit.

Same with Abbi in terms of being in the middle of the pack...I would have thought she would've been more of a game driver. It's interesting to see how she seems to still be on people's minds even when she isn't around, but you guys like her enough to play Werewolf on an archaic forum she's trying to revive, so I guess that'd be expected lol. It's been years since I've played a game with her, but besides some joke posts most of her gameplay has been rather...bland. Odd for someone who's such a colourful, stand-out person in general, but you guys would know more about whether this is normal or not...playstyles do change.

Winter voted Grace, likely for self-pres reasons but it's a bit interesting that they voted Grace over any of the options that already had a vote. Loona (who flipped town) and RDB followed them, but the latter tried to drop out at the last minute which was strange. If I had voted Winter when I was still around, it would have been tied 3-3 but I stayed on MR because I didn't want an early hammer. Overall, I feel RDB should probably be pressured here, as well as the people who weren't around (Bellepi for instance)

I voted Grace for the specific reason that I thought it was weird that they weren't involved in the first two days, then showed up at the end of the day practically asking other people to catch up on the game for them and promising that they'd finally be ready to play the game on day 3. There's flying under the radar, but this seemed blatant to me and I'm not sure why they weren't challenged stronger when they posted that. That said, I never expected to other people to switch their vote afterwards, especially after Loona said my reasoning wasn't very good.

Just wanted to clarify that besides not voting for myself, I try to have a reason for voting besides self-preservation.

ISO is to isolate messages, or search for one person's specific messages! 

Alot of people don't really love reading walls since they can be a bit of a pain to read, given how mch content is inside of them. I personally enjoy reading them though, given they're both useful for me and kind of fun to read. Before I got into mafia I used to love just reading the forum pages for mafia championships for example! They aren't a bad thing at all <3. 

True! There's a lot of Jargon in this game, a lot of it is mis-used as well, which creates for a negative new player experience. Thank you for welcoming me! Nice to see ya <3.

While I do recommend voting, you can no vote if you want! It's not compulsory and I really don't think that anybody would get angry if you didn't, and if they did it would be really bad accusations. Granted, I really don't think that it's the greatest idea.
Oricorios playstyle is basically being aggressive, so it doesn't mean very much. As for Abbi, fair! She's normally a blast to play with, true! She changed her playstyle recently though and I'm not really familiar with it, but yeah. Also, I love your forum UI! It's easily my favorite to use so far simply due to how easy it is to do various things. Nice! 

That's Ile's playstyle alright lol. That's really all I have to say :p.

Ive been bamboozle 

Once again I don't think an early hammer is a good idea, we still have over half the phase yet. I think the Luka/Golden duo is just in a bad tunnel. I mean, considering that D2 has gone much better for wolves than D1, and that as they were replacing in they didn't have to answer to any previous posts, I can see a world in which one of them is a wolf who's trying to rush to a quick victory. Golden's Hunter claim makes me want to leave that one alone for now (unless RDB is serious about CCing) but Luka arrived second I believe and may have seen the pocket opportunity. After all, wolves only need two mislynches to win here. Eliminating Abby, ExLight, and Golden that leaves a PoE of Luka, RDB, Winter, and Rem, which one more than a winning PoE at this point in the game so even if I clear the other three I still need to remove one more.

Interesting how you state wolves need 2 miselims and proceed to put a poe that gives you enough flex to miselim 2
