First post, standard gif, in early not really suspiciousWe could have a WW drinking game, a drink for every mention of:
Eager posters
Low posters
Fluff
FFA
Start of fluff
Maybe he's just excited to playProbably trying to boost his post count
First minor accusation, also from someone boosting post count. Which made me throw a little accusationOisin is a wolf
Steve feels a bit dodge
What about you? Where's your thoughts?Jesus you try to have a bit of fun on D0 and get labeled a wolf!
Gets defensive, but at least respondedThis could be a good shout as his character changes by the end of the movie
Agreeable villager pointing out obvious in response to scrooge coming good at the end. Everyone knows that, posting for the sake of it
There then follows a load of attempted gifs and die hard talk from someone who insinuated someone else was trying to buff their post count when in fact that's what he did yesterday.I didn't bother responding to her again as there are some people that just make up there mind and there is nothing you can do about it. She seemed to pick my name from nowhere and is now stuck on it.
RIP Gertie - horrible way to die.
Initially I did pick it for a pop to gauge reaction. I didn't like reaction so I'd now like to hang you0 -

Gruesome death for Gertie R.I.P
As it's the first one, her posts are def worth looking into, as there is no mountain of them to wade through.Gertrude WW wrote: »Maybe the task is to misread the post.
no tasks, so I don't think this is anything.Gertrude WW wrote: »

Where did that come from? did the person she was talking of suggest something similar as I saw no hint of that in the OPGertrude WW wrote: »Make sure to make a few of these to hang on your tree. Very festive xmas tree decoration.

A response to more nonsense Die hard talk iirc saying the non die hard is a christmas movie people are wolvesGertrude WW wrote: »I'd treat pinnapple on a pizza the same way as I would sweetcorn on a pizza. I have no issues with them being on pizzas, but I'll be ripping them off my slice before eating it.
I 100% agree with this fluff but still it's fluffGertrude WW wrote: »Tried to check out xmas forum, not allowed entry.

Again this post is useless. A lot of Fluff so far, the kind of posting that would get people thinking she may have been a baddie lying low (hopefully not a RP)Gertrude WW wrote: »Picks Oisin as his main target for nothing that I can see as different from anyone else.
Shows a bit of .. WTF.. at Fionas targetting.
More Oisin targetting, sure, I think someone else at this stage went to Oisin, just laugh it off.
Lets leave Oisin for a while, let that ferment with others....
Let's talk about scrooge, then..
probably zero point on speculating at this stage IMO, focus on what's in front of us
Discusting advise.
Dont speculate??
What else do we do with a game with shag all to go on?
Back to scrooge again. I'll note the fixation on the wolf team and move on.
Okay, ending the not so helpful dies hard xmas stuff is probably villagery.
But, back to Oisin.
Okay, I have seen a certain player before targetting another for zero reasons before, just for both to survive the munch, so this is possible.
The most horrible stuff out of Fiona is don't speculate.
I'll forgive the Oisin targetting, but if Fiona is wolf, that does not let Oisin off as wolf.
Now, my earlier note, mentioning scrooge and focusing on the wolves, could mean we have a sk here.
If one sk know the id of another, maybe they do some distancing on d0, the way Fiona has been doing to Oisin?
Well, thats my ramble for now.
Fiona possibley still vallagery just picking fight with Oisin so both survive the munch.
If thats the case, Oisin is the innocent victum in Fionas villagers ruse.
Finally some substance here and I guess what is most likely to have gotten Gertie killed. Obviously pointing the finger at Fiona but is that what we are meant to think thanks to Gertie's death? did anyone else have beef with Fiona and might want her in the villages mind for lynch?Gertrude WW wrote: »In summary, Die Hard is an xmas movie.
But there no santas in it, boo hoo, so what. There was a santa hat, an xmas party , its xmas time, it an xmas movie.
Where is santa in its a wonderful life?
Xmas soundtrack, tick.
Listed as xmas movie in almost every xmas movie list, tick.
Get over it, its an xmas movie.
mic drop.
Again I agree with this fluff but that does us no good. tbh you could probably whittle Gerties posts down to 2/3 max in terms of what might have made someone target her.0 -

so what your saying is
The eternal struggle to use words or just gif away. Still at the start so how about a mix, a question and a gif
Gabs, are you on the naughty or nice list this Christmas?The math does seem to line up, i'd say we may have a few more villager roles cos that is plenty of baddies, who i'd presume all have powers to centend with.
I wonder will we get more info on roles later but iirc there was mention of this being a near Vanilla game at one stage so maybe it will be kept simple.I talked to Santa during the Jurrasic Park game, he assured me he was putting me on the good list this year and he wouldn't lie.
I always find this a weird jab that usually comes up later [not saying your making it], that eager players are a bad thing. If im free when the thread goes up then im posting, hopefully others will do so too.
Seems the whole group have become far more active on day 0 as game players than in the past though.I could throw the overly defensive one out as I did actually say in that post that I wasn't saying you were inplying that but don't want to kill Gabs via alcohol poisoning this early.
That said we are already on to maybe there are task posts when its said in the rules there aren't so she may be in trouble anyway.Ya can't bayte the Pogues
I hope thees guys are hidden Village characters
Before day 1 mayhem commences I might actualy start watching some Christmas specials to get in the mood. The Office is always a good one to go back toJust laugh it off and continue to act as if it's day 0 instead of letting Santa shoot you down with accusations
unless you are a wolf, then bah hum bug to youOnly 10 WW posters so far so i'll wait before saying your all wolves cos you knows you could all be lovely lads and ladies and
Actually made me go back and check if the Grinch was a character in the OP I missed!It would make sense if he could be redeemed but hard to know how that could be done. Maybe he can abandon his team later on if thats the case. We would probably have to be doing pretty well for that to happen. Don't pat yourself on the back too much, I see no reason a wolf wouldn't point that out too as if there are no tasks on thread it's not like we will be able to do something to turn him later as apposed to just catching wolves. That said constructive, so goodseeing as the are called the evil spirits in the OP I would wager they are evil here anyway.Some people’s reactions to stuff so far has been interesting but I don’t know how much solid stuff we had to go by from day 0.
That said there is one thing we should know by now... Die Hard is a Christmas movie!On this I’d agree, in recent games there has been a trend on day 0 for some players to start trying to catch wolves much earlier. Not a bad thing that but I would not worry too much about fluffy posts if they occurred on day 0 as I would if they are on going especially if it’s a topic everyone got in on.
In no way does that clear her but maybe she was just poking some bears and seeing how they respond, was there ever even a reason given for the Oisin is bad stuff for example?Gruesome death for Gertie R.I.P
As it's the first one, her posts are def worth looking into, as there is no mountain of them to wade through.
no tasks, so I don't think this is anything.
early day 0 gif fun
Where did that come from? did the person she was talking of suggest something similar as I saw no hint of that in the OP
nothing talk, die hard pic
More Die hard

Again I agree with this fluff but that does us no good. tbh you could probably whittle Gerties posts down to 2/3 max in terms of what might have made someone target her.Apart from potentially Oisin, would anyone else have had any issues with you so far Fiona?
From checking Gertie's posts one potential reason for killing her may have been to case doubt on yourself given she only really had 1 post of substance in which you were suggested as a wolf.I'd say given we are looking at 6/7 baddies in total more than 1 from 10 names seems a safe bet. Are you actually suspicious of any of them in particular?
Nigel was slipping in the radar with me, like a lot of other posters at this stage in the game. But he just got my interest when he posted all of Gertie's posts so far - which I had already done earlier today. Why would he do that - possibly just missed my post, but I also got to thinking that maybe he's trying to seem super helpful.
As it caught my attention I went back to examine his posts - all above.
Very eager starting out and seemed to be interacting with Gabriel a lot of the beginning, maybe to increase post count. Lots of GIFs and messing around between each other. raises some further suspicions.
Some more detailed interaction and views expressed since then though, so I am just noting it at the moment and not saying Nigel is bad.0 -

Die hard conversation and I’m taking nothing from these apart from the fact they’re about die hard.Clodagh WW wrote: »Fiona: Why do you think Oisín is a wolf?
Asking about another players opinion again.All of Gertie's posts. There is really only one in that list of particular substance which suggests that the first port of call is Fiona and Oisin for discussion. Both could be good.
Aside from the death, we now have more info which is always good for us.
The wolf team might be five members - Scrooge, Marlay and the 3 spirits.
I am just not sure what the increase/decrease parts of the OP would relate to. The increase possibly is Scrooge getting Marlay to his team? But the bold part says Marlay visited Scrooge, which seems odd to me?
I think Tiny Tim might have some bullets (shotgun walking stick) which is always good.Clodagh WW wrote: »I think Fiona and Oisín would be a good starting point.
Fiona - you say his posting style is wolfie, what is it about him that makes him wolfy, when there was nothing of substance in day 0?
And Oisín - Fiona has thrown shade on you a few times. But you haven’t really given a response beyond the usual “trying to get involved”. I’m not pointing one way or another, just trying to start somewhere.
Mary and Clodagh guiding the convo towards Oisin & Fiona?
The first post by Clodagh led me to make a note that she’s one to watch.0 -

Let that be the end of the discussion. I like Gertrude overnight, nice analytics on Fiona/Oisin.
Would agree with Henry though that steering the conversation back to game talk on day 0 gets no village points from me.
Likes Gertrude's work and then Gertrude gets got. Distancing himself from what was to come perhaps?0 -

Ok Ive got a few mintues, 336 posts so wasnt too hard to catch up. Lots of nothing, a few things to note.
Die Hard is a film that takes place on Christmas eve and involves the lead protaginist visiting his wife and kids for Christmas until he is caught up in a robbery. Its a Christmas film as it is set entirely on Christmas Eve.
I did notice mary quoting posts in clumps and analyising them as a whole. So no better person to start with for me.
I like to review posts on if the subject is a wolf or a villager.Good day everyone. Mary checking in. Work Christmas party last night so feeling the pain today.
How' is all the Christmas butchering coming along?
Fluff, adds nothing.
If a villager, its harmless nothing.
If a wolf its a wolf attempting to blend in and get the post count up without being suss.While I am late to the debate I am on the diehard = Christmas movie side of the fence.
I'm also reasonably OK with pineapple on pizza, but it wouldn't be in my top 10 choice of toppings.
Ads nothing, same as above.Morning all.
Did we get a final vote tally?
DH debate provides a starting point for FFAs today
Again same as ablove, adds nothing.All of Gertie's posts. There is really only one in that list of particular substance which suggests that the first port of call is Fiona and Oisin for discussion. Both could be good.
Aside from the death, we now have more info which is always good for us.
The wolf team might be five members - Scrooge, Marlay and the 3 spirits.
I am just not sure what the increase/decrease parts of the OP would relate to. The increase possibly is Scrooge getting Marlay to his team? But the bold part says Marlay visited Scrooge, which seems odd to me?
I think Tiny Tim might have some bullets (shotgun walking stick) which is always good.
Here she multi quotes all of Gerts posts and assesses them as a whole.
Now Mary highlights that Gert wants to focus on Ois and Fiona. She implies that maybe this is what got Gert killed, then says both might be good.
Is this a way of getting suspcion on both Fiona and Oisin? Did she try distance her self from this passive assumption by saying "both could be good. It reads to me like.......... "Gert wanted to focus on these two, but I dont..."
If she thinks they could be good, why highlight it in the first place?
Again my thinking here is under teh assumption Mary is a wolf.
If shes a villager, why imply they are good? on what basis is she thinking they are good ?On this, if Marlay was a convert this morning it throws open a few things to consider.
Did wolves get a choice between convert or kill?
Or was the convert destined to happen anyway, like the appearance of Tiny Tim.
The OP says no tasks in the game thread, but in other stories there's been tasks in backrooms so I wonder did the bad teams need to compete for the kill. Has happened before.
Munch sounds like a wolf kill as opposed to SK kill. I'm a bit torn between taking flavour as flavour and not discounting anything. The kill notice is a clear sign of this - it talks of Tim's gun, and I've just noticed the updated OP where Tim has a gun so flavour is definitely more than flavour.
Discusses some in game mechqanics and theories,
If good then its just thinking aloud and trying to figure thiungs out.
If shes a wolf, shes probably trying to appear helpful.
To be fair, nothing she says her would indoicate shes a wolf in my opinion.On what basis?
Here she questions Riona about her assumption that Mary and clodagh are a team.
Her reply is logical if she was good or bad, Riona shakes a tree and she responds.
My dedicution, Riona was looking for a reaction and Mary reacted.
A calm reaction to be fair.
An innocent villager ? perhaps
A cool as a cucumber wolf? Perhaps also.
Nothing to lynch Mary with her though nothing to make me think shes good here alsoNigel was slipping in the radar with me, like a lot of other posters at this stage in the game. But he just got my interest when he posted all of Gertie's posts so far - which I had already done earlier today. Why would he do that - possibly just missed my post, but I also got to thinking that maybe he's trying to seem super helpful.

Some more detailed interaction and views expressed since then though, so I am just noting it at the moment and not saying Nigel is bad.
Again, multi quoting Nigel here and her analyisis above is based on everything.
Its not a style i favour, its easy to quote all his posts, I prefer to look at each one individually myself, as Im doing here.
Says Nigel was slipping in the radar? Why? What specficly lead you to this Mary?
Thinks its odd that Nigel also multi quoted Gerts post as she did earlier. Why did you find it odd?
You think Nigel is being "super helpful". Is that based off him multi quoting Gerts posts after you or is there more to it.
What did you think of Nigels views?
Your post here could lead me to accuse you of appearing super helpful also?
I would like you to expand on some of your specfic thoughts about Nigel0 -

Decided to go for Derry next as he has a very managable number of postsSometimes at this point, people can find it difficult to contribute and will jump on a chance to offer their thoughts on a situation. At such an early stage, I wouldn't be moaning about people trying to "defend" someone by just playing Devil's Advocate
I'd mostly agree but if Derry was a wolf this could be diverting away from other wolves being put under scrutiny.
Then there was Jingle all the way movie fluff talkI wouldn't rely on anything. Just hate when we can't trust anything. Feel that its often best to at least work on a spectrum of trust rather than a binary
This is one of a few posts about math and the odds of peeks
his opening post, already defensive, but it was actually a joke about someone else over reacting. Up to speed very quick, maybe already watching on from a backroom but tbh there is not enough in his posts to be super suspect yet0 -
