And where, dear phantom, is the fun in that? :D

Ima go ahead and vote now since it probably should be bedtime (meaning I'll vote now and retract later if necessary when there's actually reason to do so). So for now,

Since I know she won't hurt me for voting her. :D

Well yes I considered that option but it's still not a vote I'd have made...

Haha, so true. But I just think we should ignore them to an extent, especially tp. ;)

I have a feeling everybody's sending hints all the time and I'm not getting them. :rolleyes:

I will now go to sleep, unless I've cross-posted with something interesting...

PS. Feel free to lynch me for I also think beer is bad.;)


edit: xed with Boro's #72 and everything after that

Oh, and I'm Canadian and I don't even like beer. So feel free to lynch me....oh wait. :P

Kath 05-19-2009 04:25 PM

Shall we have a list? I think we shall! I suspect most of the entries will simply say 'banter' but there's not a lot I can do about that at this stage.

Nerwen - do Agan and Lommy fight a lot in game? I hadn't noticed that before, or at least not remembered it.

Eomer - banter.

Lommy - clearly Noggie is playing over her shoulder with the loud/quiet debate comment. :p Thinks Lari should have refrained from voting, but would likely have been the first to jump on her and ask why she hadn't voted if Lari had gone for that option. From her list has some suspicion of Lari based on what she said before, otherwise she's no idea. Ah we have a retraction! Well that explains Boro.

Agan - I want to know how many other people are now tempted to go look up all Nerwen's past games and see if that thing about the word 'terrible' is true! Warns of potential revenge vote. Very good point about the fair maiden if her maths is right. Loud/quiet debate. Doesn't like Boro or phantom but will leave them alone - reason?

sally - pops up.

McCaber - surprisingly well thought out suspicions for a first post! Adds to the loud/quiet debate.

Mira - appears.

Shasta - arrives. Says McCaber is always quiet and we should kill phantom and/or Boro now to save ourselves a headache.

Gwath - says Boro should be able to test the village without resorting to killing.

Boro - whole lot of nothing. This list on the other hand not so well thought out. *sigh* And off to coded communication again. I knew there was a reason I hated Boro and phantom playing together. Votes phantom, I'm sure for some horrendously complicated reason. This early in the game I don't much care to try and pick it apart.

Inzil - intro post. Haha! I love his (boy yes?) description of phantom: a bit unbalanced and unpredictable? Just you wait til Fea begins her madness Inzil.

Nienna - banter.

Greenie - arrives ... leaves. Doesn't like the unreasoned votes against phantom.

Lari - makes her excuses and leaves, voting phantom first. I can see her point. It's like the people who vote Nog early on Day 1 only to see him saved in the last few seconds.

Mith - arrives. Wonders about the votes for phantom. Seems to have come to no real conclusions but clearly thinking things through well. Not keen on Boro or Lommy.

phantom - random except for the mention of Lari. Interesting thoughts, but there are also 4 ordos on the 'normal' Gifted team. Helpfully suggests we lynch no one. If there were no wolves fine, but as there are it isn't a great plan.

And I got nothing from Izzy, Gaurcrist or Fea. Though I foresee problems with me realising Fea has arrived because I thought she had already before I realised it was actually Greenie.

From all that the only person who jumped out at me was Lommy for her reaction to Lari's vote. I'm going to vote in a few minutes so it'll probably be for her.

Kath 05-19-2009 04:25 PM

Hmm cross posted with quite a few people there.

Mithalwen 05-19-2009 04:26 PM

Wilwa dear that was not a helpful clarification... :rolleyes:

I know but as anyone who thinks xe's an ordo could be her, it isn't good to be too loud about being ordinary.

Do what you will, but I repeat, my books say Boro has a girl role. And in this world, there are more good girls than bad ones.

In this world.

Anyway, I can understand being upset with Shasta for admitting he's an Ordo. The best thing an Ordo can do in this set up is get themselves Night-killed or guessed by the baddies. But oh well. The fact that his play upsets us doesn't make him any less of an Ordo. So everyone should just leave him be.

Thinlómien 05-19-2009 04:34 PM

Kath, you're right, I realise that now. I would have condemned Lari if she had popped up and said she isn't going to vote. And also if she had voted someone and claimed it's random. And possibly even is she had voted herself. Oh well. :D

Oh who am I kidding? :p

And yes, I really do have nothing of substance to contribute at the moment. Although the hostility between Mith and phantom has been noted.

Wait.... oh, okay. I can see that argument, Mith. Sorry.

I take greater joy out of people thinking I have a brilliant concoction, and giving people a headache, when there is no reason to, because I have no plan and I just say random things that come to mind.

Now for the reason I voted for tp, you have already figured it out, see Miss Cleo...now that is an intentional coded message directed at you, because if I were to tell you the answer directly it won't work. ;)

wilwa, aren't you supposed to be dead?

I will only say this: my sense of taste is QUITE sophisticated and I enjoy certain kinds of beer VERY much. You speak evil of that which is fair beyond the reach of your thought, and only little wit can excuse you!

I blame Rikae though, she told us wolves to lynch Lommy so I made a massive case against her, and it sort of stuck.

It wasn't a very serious don't-like yet. Anyway I usually leave those twain alone on day 1 and wait till I can develop a clearer picture of them because everyone is concentrating on them all the time anyway.

I like also Kath for now.

Anyway my brain is slowing down so I'll go to sleep. Good night.

Someone want to enlighten me as to when deadline is, so I don't forget to vote?

In 12 hours, in relation to your post.

Shastanis Althreduin 05-19-2009 07:50 PM

Ewwwwww, eight in the morning? Sadness.

I'll just have to vote a couple hours early, that's all.

Feanor of the Peredhil 05-19-2009 08:01 PM

Hello, everybody.
 
I've arrived.

Fashionably late, of course.

Everybody knows my first day feelings: nobody's done anything particularly naughty yet, so nobody really has anything to hide, ergo nobody has any reason at all to be acting suspiciously, so any suspicions are pure bunk, created with poor reasoning and no legitimate evidence based on fact.

Consequently: I think we should lynch the phantom today, just because I seem to remember he's never been lynched, and I'd hate to deprive him of the honor of an early demise.

Boromir88 05-19-2009 08:16 PM

Ok so first day is past half way, and it is now time for me to get serious. You can ignore everything I have said before this point, so if anyone would ever wish to do an analysis on me, you should start with this post. (Or I guess the post after this one, because this is just a post telling everyone I mean business - not the actual business yet.)

I was spot on the phantom, hmm? And Feanor is one to watch? I seem to be surrounded by devious characters, all with their own little schemes. If that's not a good time, I don't know what is.
I still have no particular feeling on a suspect at this point. Boromir has said some odd things, either playing mind games or possibly something more ominous, but now he says that was all in fun.
Mith and the phantom appear to have a little animosity toward one another; Gwathagor seems ok, as (he?) likes beer; Aganzir 'doesn't hold with beer' (casts sidelong glance)........
I'm going to bed now, but I'll be up well in time for the deadline. Maybe something will come together by morning (probably wishful thinking).

Feanor of the Peredhil 05-19-2009 08:41 PM

I vote we lynch all the beer-drinkers and leave the village to the ones who are happy to drink whiskey straight. :cool:

Inziladun 05-19-2009 08:52 PM

No, no, dear, I was lynched in WW III. Been there, done that.

And I have no opinion on the lynch-beer-drinkers debate. I'm a Dr Pepper man.

I agree, Boro, that we really ought to be getting serious now, but my role is just so fun. I'm usually analyzing and scheming and other things, when it's much easier and fun to just thrash about and say stuff for no reason at all. I should be a slightly insane book liberator in every village.

Plus I don't really have time to do much of anything, not to mention that there isn't much to analyze at this point. I'll get serious later. Day 2 maybe. For sure by Day 3. Because really, folks, this is a fairy tale village. I've read enough of those to know that we'll all live happily ever after. So why stress? Go home, and read a book. But not one of mine.

*pets books*

I'm going to take a nap now. Okay, not really- I'm actually going to grab my equipment and attempt to rob Nienna's store while everyone is preoccupied with this Werewolf stuff. But shhh, you don't know anything about it.

Well, I'm back. And Watchmen is still an awesome movie, for all those concerned.

Beer vs. Whiskey, eh? I think I'm with tp here, but I favor the Jones Cream Soda myself.

Fea's playing around with her first few posts. Nothing wrong with that, as long as it stays playing.

(psst, phantom, if you need any "breaking and entering" kits, they're around back of the shop.)

Wow, I'm tempted to lynch phantom just to see if we could actually get him lynched on Day One. Of course this would do us no good so I probably wouldn't actually do it, but still....it'd make me giggle.

K, so I had a bunch of stuff quoted earlier (like things I wanted to properly respond to) but my internet's been even more horrible than usual. I really did mean to post this afternoon, and tried several times, but I haven't had internet since my last post, at least not for long enough to make a post. With that in mind I have no idea who to vote but want to make sure I do vote, so....


++Agan


Because of a weird feeling, and because I know she won't get cross with me for voting her out of desperation. I'll do my best to catch up with the thread, but honestly I don't think I'll be back for the rest of the Day because I'll likely go to bed the next time my internet kicks out, which will be shortly.

I'm going to bed in a few minutes, and I am not waking up to vote before deadline. No way.

So

++Boromir88

For teasing Mira about going to bed and making it sound like she was staying up in order to do Gifted-y things. And/or hinting at her that she's his Lover and ought to PM Wilwa about it asap so that they can rule the world together after killing us all. Or something. Dear god I'm tired.

Yeah.

Dear Day 1: the day you start offering me legitimate options, I will start voting with better rationale.
