Vulgard obviously wasn’t an NPC so I’m wondering if wolves have an additional role that’s able to do the reverse of Vulgard’s role - something with a restless modifier that can act from the grave.
Keep an eye out on whether anyone publicly claims to have been vanillized in the thread
I think there’s a mild possibility the wolves have one of those roles where they can choose a type of role to disable (protective, investigative, disruptive, etc.) as an anticlaim or something. Like if they can choose a role type and disable anyone who claimed or hinted at that role type in the thread.

I have a weird suggestion for you, actually - how would you guys feel about neighborizing Kyubey next, if my theory is correct? We’d at least be able to avoid adding a wolf, and using this as a makeshift link to uninformed spec chat would actually be extremely valuable because we could get more input to solve the game.
You can fairly easily confirm or debunk my theory by seeing how Kyubey behaves in the thread during the day
I know someone said they thought Kyubey’s D1 posts looked like Litten’s but I don’t believe they were, and it’s probably obvious to someone else, too. Laser brought this up late in the day as a topic long after Litten had already rescinded the claim, and it seems like they weren’t aware of it. So I think they’re at the very least uninformed of whether this is just a game mechanic or not, but I do wonder why they suddenly found it a relevant topic to bring up half a day later.
Also tbf I don’t know how many people would notice a slot switch if Litten hadn’t accidentally posted on his main, but over time it will be obvious anyway if the slot swaps holders every day because there’s no way so many people are going to be able to post in an identical style to each other.

If I don’t get to it before I fall asleep, can someone check the thread to see how many people made the assumption there were 4 packwolves and not 5?
I believe Wisdom did, and there was at least one other who referenced “the other 4 wolves” in their post when talking about Vulgard spew.
I just realized there are 16 town slots, 2 neut/NPC slots, and that leaves us with 5 wolf slots, one of which is a LW. So it is completely possible someone slipped the number of wolves accidentally - and plausibly, I also believe Wisdom mightve slipped, and this whole watcher FPS was due to wolves doing a bigbrain play by setting up two of Wisdom’s partners to flip, knowing that the first role to flip wouldn’t show (which is why she was safely able to dome Alana), and who knows what Marshal is.
I think it’s also still remotely possible, in that case, that Marshal is not partnered with Alana, but then it absolutely guarantees Wisdom is because I’m pretty sure at least two wolves have to be involved in this.
I think there’s a fair chance I socially misread Wisdom because I’ve just never seen her wolf before, and I think she’s entirely capable of bigbraining something like this with a strong team.
Bottom line: do NOT let Wisdom skate by if she doesn’t die at night
Investigate her before XyLo and kill her in XyLo.
Ok I didn’t get to isoing Wazza and it’s gonna make her sad and annoyed when it becomes obvious in thread assuming I’m alive but I need to go to sleep so ill just have to do that during the day phase
Btw
Keep an eye on any claims to protect Wisdom, not just tonight but literally any future claims. One, they shouldn’t be claiming if they want to keep their role, and two, it could just be a fake claim.
I’d really like to just not have paranoia about this for days on end so hopefully she’ll just die to a nightkill and I can debunk my entire conspiracy theory and breathe in peace lol
I’m really bad at following occams razor and sometimes I end up tunnelling a really outlandish and specific scenario that makes sense to me, sense to nobody else, and turns out to be completely wrong lol. This seems like one of those theories…
It’s entirely possible there will be a town protective on wisdom, but I have some doubts, and I also think if she’s a wolf and ESPECIALLY if she just bussed a wolf doctor, she would want all the town protectives to either lose their roles or waste their actions on her.
So my new take (maybe not new but narrowed down from my thread legacy) is that Alana/Marshal/Wisdom almost always contains two wolves
If Marshal doesn’t turn out to be a wolf, please please please reevaluate Wisdom

*at least two
possibly three if they’re going hard but I do realise that would mean they’re setting up Wisdom +1 to carry them to endgame and that seems a little suboptimal in a wolf team of 4 packwolves (now down to 3)

Yeah I’m out of time to quote what I wanted to bring up but:
-
Someone said Vulgard spew seems like it clears Wisdom, but Vulgard was informed if they were both wolves and Wisdom was not. Does Wisdom look good on interaction with Vul, or only based on Vulgard’s posts mentioning her? Interactions can’t clear the same way when they involve a lost wolf who is informed, and a packwolf who is uninformed.
-
How about Marl and Vulgard? I don’t even remember most of Marl’s posts about Vulgard, and frankly I would expect something more memorable from him on the Vulgard slot because they have experience playing together. I think Vulgard threw Marl into the town tier but didn’t comment much on it so I’m a little sketched out by that.

You mentioned earlier in this hood to look back at Marshal and Alana’s reactions to Wisdom’s original claim to parity cop them, right? I think that was discussed here and the conclusion was that their reactions were a bit underwhelming. That tells us either that they knew they were aligned anyway and were just hoping to kill wisdom before she could get the next parity check, or they were in on the plan with w!wisdom because they knew they weren’t actually copped.
-
Continuing the previous point, wisdom claimed copvig (JC), parity cop (Alana and Marshal), tracker (Alana), then watcher (Marshal) in that order. Is that a town play, why is it a good town play, and what does it accomplish in the long run besides killing one wolf and possibly two, at the risk the second slot is just an extreme willager, and you end up getting them killed as well as yourself (a tradeoff of 2 town for 1 wolf)? Also, the copvig thing was on D1 before JC died and then the rest of that was all D2 and I’m wondering if she kept changing her claim to adjust to thread reactions.
