Sally, that video just made my life. ^_^
I need to leave in about an hour, so that's when I'll be voting. And not much else has been happening and I don't know what else to say.... So I'll be back to vote and everything, and I have no idea who that vote will be for. |

Well, then– may I point out that for all we know we may have a phantlob. Do you imagine such a beast would want to avoid controversy? I think not. X'd with Wilwa. |

Back shortly with a surprise. Surprise? |

All right, O Moddess, I have watched the video. Is there to be a quiz?

Retcon
laurab2333 shivered in the corner. She couldn't make out any of the faces, which didn't really matter because she didn't know any of them anyway.
"No one's even talking to me," she huffed, curling her arms around herself tighter. She didn't realize that, had she actually said something first, they might have. Unfortunately, it was too late for her. "Who's there?" she whispered, turning around in the dark as she heard a rock shift. "Hello?" "Gimme a hand, will ya?" a harsh voice replied. laurab2333 felt blindly in front of her until her hands rested against some rocks. She couldn't tell if it was the cave wall or if there was a small passage that the group hadn't previously noticed, but she couldn't be bothered to mention it to the rest, instead scratching at the rocks until she felt something warm and soft. "Actually," the voice said slowly, "I probably need both hands." laurab2333 hesitantly reached out and placed her other hand on the rocks as well. Before she could react, she was tugged sharply into the rocks. "Help!" she shouted, but everyone was so used to her being silent that they didn't notice. "I'm taking your place," the voice informed her, then paused. "Newbie." laurab2333 screamed as she was pulled through the rocks, the echo of her voice quickly fading as another body slithered through the small opening. "Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeere's Fea!" laurab2333 did not re-emerge. Whether she somehow escaped or was frightened to death is anyone's guess. The Playing: Nienna Lottie Dun Nog Bom Tombadillo Wilwa Nerwen Glirdan Boro Lhuna Phantom Shasta Fea The Played: laurab2333 Note: laurab2333 is a RL friend who had wanted to try her hand at WW, but due to a sudden case of RL duties isn't actually able to play. Fea, however, is, now that her THESIS OF DOOM is finished. laurab2333's role, if she had one, has now been taken over by Fea. |

*attack snuggles Fea*
Okee....so I have to go to work now, and I won't be able to come back, so I need to vote. Uhm.... Did Pie say you should lynch me for old times sake? (affirmative, he did) I think perhaps I'll vote for him for old times sake, because I literally have nothing to go on right now, and he'll eventually look crazy suspicious to me anyway, so: ++Glirdan Good luck, and I should be around far more on Day 2. |

Hm, I still don't have much to go on here, and odds are I'll have to vote early. I'll have a shower then some food while I think it over. x/d with Lhuna- we do indeed have a Fea |

Shasta- thanks much, your accusation is as flattering as any I've seen. Sally- video makes me happy. :) Regarding Laura being replaced with Fea- there was actually a part of me that was wondering if Laura was just Fea in disguise anyway (a rather obvious disguise!) and so my approach will not change. |

Everahbody seems to be after the phantom. Even disregarding my inherent tendency to defend our shadowy overlord, this seems to be excessive. He's acting his usual self as far as I can tell, so that leaves me with the question of whether this is a justified attack based on evidence that everybody but me can see, or a cunningly initiated bandwagon.
Still, I agree with the resident Lhunatic: There doesn't seem to be much to go on. Thus, this may just be an apparent "safe lynch," given that phantom has already stated that he's likely to be out of the game before long. OR it could just be me overreacting to joking accusations. After all, the only actual vote slung so far is for Glirdan. En-ny-way, I'll be back in about an hour to vote, as the next time I can get on will be past deadline. |
The best thing we could hope - dream - to find toDay is Shelob defending/protecting whoever she stung. I say best, but really mean unlikely. So for toDay we're all just really groping around in the dark, literally and figuratively.
I can't help wondering, though, if in the later Days Shelob will be more or less likely to sacrifice her little spiders, knowing there's always a chance to spawn a new one the next Day, as opposed to werecreatures which are fixed in number for the entire game. Would there be a point to that? |
Quote:
Anyway, I've come to the conclusion that Wilwa, Lottie, and I are entirely innocent, and unlikely to be converted by Shelob, so I'm going to use that as my primary base of operations for the remainder of the contest. Just fyi. |

Another thought I had is that the spawn might go out of their way to try and save an innocent at some point. That way, if the spiderling is later lynched and thus found out, it could put the one they'd defended in a pretty poor light. x/d with tp |
Quote:
Alas, it is late (read: past 2 AM) and so I must vote. ++Loslote Although I don't believe we've played together before. Luck o' the draw. |
Ok, it's crunch time. Got to leave for the next couple or hours. I'm not crazy about voting for the two who already have votes. Sooo....
++Boro Just because he's been strangely quiet and I'm getting even less of a read on him than usual. Really, that's all I've got. Choose well, folks. |
Just doing some quick number crunching here. We have 13 players, and currently we have 1 Shelob, 0 Spiderlings, 1 Stung, and 11 Innocents. So, let's see how many failed attempts we can afford.
DAY 1: 1-0-1-11 DAY 2: 1-1-1-9 DAY 3: 1-2-1-7 DAY 4: 1-3-1-5 DAY 5: 1-4-1-3 *game over* So, four bad lynches gets us dead. And given the odds on Day 4 I'd say realistically three bad lynches in a row nearly kills us. A successful protection from Sam would keep us alive on Day 5, but the numbers would be 4-5, so all of the Innocents would have to vote correctly and together. If Sam gets both a protection and a cure we would still be alive on Day 6, but with dead even numbers we'd be as good as dead. A successful Spiderling lynch would also keep us alive on Day 5, but again it would be tough sledding. A Spiderling lynch paired with a Sam save would again give us a longshot miracle hope for Day 6 but that's about it. Now, if we manage to get THREE breaks to go our way (Spiderling lynches or Sam protections) then that would give us an actual chance on Day 6. To summarize- if we kill Sam it seems to me that we're screwed. Because really, we cannot expect to be able to lynch Spiderlings with any regularity given the fact that they are not a true pack and do not have a dependable history to examine. |
So, first Lhuna looks suspicious in her first post, and then she tries to appease me, and then she goes and votes for one of the two people I declared innocent forever (Lottie).
You're just begging for my attention, m'dear. |

What do you mean you don't all know who he is? I do! Oh. Right.... :Merisu: |
It seems the Mod is determined to have the highest post count. :rolleyes:
(You know, even I don't do that in my games, and I'm as chatty as anyone. I'm thinking Sally must be terribly bored today.) |

How did you know? |
Back and reading...
After finishing my jobs I decided to install my new audio software before turning into this - and it took ages with all the different "activations", "registrations", "USB-licenses" and whatnots. Cryptical things. And it doesn't even work yet... :rolleyes: Anyway, I'll be around now for most of the time, first reading. |
Quote:
I'm keeping tabs, just got nothing groundbreakingly brilliant to say, and don't particularly feel like making up stuff that will only add to the page count. Edit: removing the highlight so it doesn't confuse Ms. Sally. |
In light of my forgetting to vote earlier, I'm taking just an eetsy-beetsy second off of what I'm supposed to be doing (you won't tell, will you?):
++Lhunardawen This may be the pervasive influence of the phantom, but she is acting a bit odd. Although that may be normal, since I can't recall what she's acted like in any of the games I've read . . . |
*cough* Highlight your vote. *cough*
Same way you tag bolding, except put highlight instead of b. |
Seventy posts with less than two hours to the deadline? That's all we can manage? (okay, I admit I'm one to blame myself but I'm only one of thirteen) No rows between people, no one hurt, no nothing to raise an eybrow?
What I said about Shelob's wishes to stay low as she is alone... Two quick ones to begin with. Nerwen: Not quite the traditional "loud-quiet" -discussion as this game is different (there is no team so the lonely spider could much more easily just hunker down - especially looking at the way this game is coming forwards quite lazily). But what you say about the tspider is just the reason I added that everyone will of course play by their styles - or what I meant more exactly; that a spider wouldn't deviate from her "normal playing style" in a too obvious way, which makes my point a bit less attractive, but still valid, I think. Referring to tp's count, we basically have two to three Days to bag at least one baddie / get someone saved. So let's not take even this D1 lightly even it looks like there's not much to say or base your vote on. Btw. If Shelob dies but has already spawned, let's say two spiderlings to maturity, will killing of Shelob end the game or can the two still win together? There is this rule that if Shelob is killed before she has a minion the first stinged will turn into a new Shelob, but how about the situation where there are two or three spiders and Shelob dies? |
There was actually a quite straightforward answer to my question in the rules...

Straight up answer. If Shelob is not lynched toDay or toMorrow, she will just die. ToDay or toMorrow, however, I will be cross that you all ended the game so early and will upgrade the primary spawn (if there is more than one, I will roll it off) to Shelob: the Sequel. Also, one of you is feeling rather ill at the moment. You have my sympathy (but not my tasty corpse, at least not yet). EDIT: x'd with....myself? Sort of? |
Current vote count is as follows.
Muffin-->Pie Lhunatic-->Pop Dramatic Sound Effects-->My Sweet Prince Stealth Yellowboots-->Lhunatic I'll count Bom's vote because he sounded like he was popping off, ne'er to return. |
Moderately suspect voting so far.
Wilwa goes for Glirdan because if he doesn't look crazy suspicious yet he will. Although, she says she doesn't have any suspicions at the most...if she has to make a vote with bad reasoning she probably would feel most comfortable voting for Glirdan. Because it is Glirdy, and everyone does it. :rolleyes: Lhuna appears to have drawn Lottie's name out hat. Her voting suggests she doesn't care, but her posting says she doesn't want to be lynched yet. Can't blame her, first time back in a while, hate to make a quick exit. Inzil based on me being more quiet than usual. Fairy nuff for a Day 1 vote, when I'm having just as difficult of a time deciding. Bom's looks decent enough too, since it's actually based on what Lhuna's done in the present, and not skewed by past, subjective experiences. |
The voting to this point-
Wilwa ++ Glirdan Lhuna ++ Lottie Inzil ++ Boro Bom ++ Lhuna Still to vote- Nienna Lottie Nog Nerwen Glirdy Boro Phantom Shasta Fea |

Skimming through the thread for any hints...
The way Lottie and Glirdy rant in the beginning looks a bit odd but could just be an inside-joke I just didn't understand. If they are shelob and the stinged though... well it's surely possible if not exactly wise in a game where Shelob needs to stay alive and can do it easily not making mistakes. The most careful ones? Nerwen, Inzil, Boro? Or the one just making a joke-list? Shasta of course (why I always end up suspecting you?) I'm not voting for Lhuna for obvious reasons, toDay. Neither will I vote for Bom T. I have never played with her/him (or at least I don't remember doing that - and s/he seems to do some pretty decent work, if not too much of it). Also I don't think Fea is Shelob as all this playing around Laura12345 (or whatever) probably means she's not The Baddie. tp I have no reason to believe is Shelob either. He "forgot" to mention that he does other things than just reveal and false-reveal in games, and I think he has been up to a few nice ones thus far. Okay. Needs to draw a list now to help my mind. Where are you others? Heh... call one and get one... Quote:
