d3 in hindsight was a shit show, mostly my fault for tunneling maple into oblivion to be fair, but from the way d3 played out i think it should be clear to see that i cared about getting to the right answer, at any cost. maple was a puzzle piece that fit perfectly in my mind (perhaps too perfectly), given jan's activity levels, maple's lack of posting/solving, i felt like that HAD to be the answer, it just felt right in the way that good wolfreads should do, where you have ticked all the boxes and newcomb gives you a prize and a pat on the back. i didn't let others take the fall for maple, i took maple down singlehandedly with my tunnel, which is not exactly a great argument to peddle in f5 lol, but its the truth and i did it because i believed wholeheartedly that they were going to flip wolf. on the other hand ladd was not interested in taking that poisoned chalice and instead associated me a lot with maple to put me in a negative light to give him that room to work with going into f5. i was loud, brash and confident that i had that good read and that i was going to be vindicated. at the end of the day villagers and wolves can do anything for any reason but i think my actions show what a villager does when they have a read they believe in like i did, compared to wolves, who know the answers, and have to play around and plan for the future in a way that i think d3 demonstrates.
its def interesting to read this in context of how i viewed things, and in retrospect i should have talked a lot more about that in the moment but on some level it felt like that elim sort of had to happen but i still regretted it because i did deep down think she was town on some level it was just kinda weird to find the actual world so i sorta half talked myself into maybe she is just a wolf, hoping for it maybe more than anything else lol, and i didnt really feel like i could hard commit to a clear on her 100% there and i feel like to not kill here there you kinda just have to decide you will never kill her. but i saw the flip and i was just kinda like yep and i desperately wished i had even though idk if it was even realistic, probably not at all lol, just one of those things that felt like it shouldve been more in my power/control than it really was
