if you are alive as a villager past the midgame then the wolves kept you alive on purpose because you are not able to figure them out
think from the perspective of the wolves. they are not going to kill the players who are wrong
if you are right, you are the prime target for nightkills
so if you are alive late in the game as a villager and you still think your reads are correct
they are not correct
and you have wolves in your townreads 90% of the time

It basically boils down to their attitude regarding other peoplesā alignments and flips.
If they act as they have doubts regarding your alignment, theyāre prolly a villa. If they act like theyāre absolute certain about it, then theyāre prolly a wolf. Reminder that villagers donāt have info while wolves have.

i will say that re-evaluating might not always work but itās always better than not doing anything and continuing to tunnel villagers until the end of the game
if you re-evaluate, you have a chance to catch a wolf
if you donāt, you justā¦ donāt
you guarantee yourself to lose the game after having tunneled villagers the whole game

thatās the theory behind it but i never understood how to apply it in-game so i justā¦ donāt
and people are probably better off
but thatās beside the point
I usually keep people who are village-reading me alive and townread them while killing and mislynching the ones who arenāt. Itās basically how I create my own townbloc as a wolf.
imagine the last fol if i kept townreading chloe despite aliceās logs and claims
and if i kept townreading alice despite her openwolfing
guess how that game would end
probably a village loss, or at the very least, i would be the dumbest villager in that game
but i decided to re-evaluate and i ended up not mislynching the last living person i wolfread initially, that being possessed
and marshal but he died

The way progression works also impacts this. Villagers usually go more back and forth in their reads while wolves do it more spontaneously and more agenda-y.
In short, waterfall and plinko board.

me 2 i genuinly lead us to victory but roll scum like 3 to 1. See like Poisonous and like Fol 27 (i was more saving a single slots life but who cares).
Would you have been happier in BotF IV if you werenāt rando shot instantly but lost instead?
Or no
also i have no idea where to put this
but 70% of players in short fuse, which has just ended, thought i was āweirdā that game
i was a villager
what was weird? idk if i should be posting this here i just donāt understand what was wrong and i want to see it
