Oh my... I was just making my post...

So let it go then.

++ Mac

I'm afraid he was a goodie to begin with but is no more.

Some explanations to follow (with the post I was writing - unless that gets me modfired as well)

Well, I guess I couldn't go a game without suspecting a gifted...Lari being the hunter has kinda thrown me off. I actually thought Mac might be the hunter...there was something about his behavior and there was a comment he made when Rikae-cobbler voted for him, suggesting that she "had to vote for who she thought was the seer", so I thought perhaps he was sticking his neck out to bait the wolves a bit.

Hrmmm.

++Macalaure

Edit: Crossed with Nog

Also...Nerwen has to "reveal" something, too? :rolleyes:

Apparently it will:

!!!

I really don't want to yet... because pretty much everything I've learned is useless now... whereas I might actually do some good in the present circumstances.

X'd with Dury.

Well might as well vote now:

++Nog

Some good for whom? :Merisu:

This is getting rather silly. (Understatement of the year...)

I think Mnemo was joking about the modfire.

And don't roll your eyes at me, Durelin. I'm pretty sure now that there are no common-or-garden ordos in this game.

EDIT: X'd with Dury and Lari

For the village:rolleyes:

Oh and,

++Mac.

Yes, there are. :rolleyes:

I die toNight? Place Not Duck trust in Izzy. Only one I still have faith in.

Nilp -> Everyone
Mith -> Durelin (2)
Mac -> Nog (2)
Fea -> Nerwen (2)
Nog -> Mac (2)
Durelin -> Mac (3)
Lari -> Nog (3)
Nerwen -> Mac (4)

;)

Unless somebody is willing to retract from me to Nogrod, we're pretty much doomed.

Braving the modfire then...

Of the four Gwath's dreams Mac is the most probable - and at least one of us has to be a turned baddie.

Fea might be one as well but I have no time to speculate on her now.

Funny you voted early but are still around Mac... you duck!

My feelings were right about Lommy, Nienna, and Kath. You should have trusted me this time, too. :p

Want to, Mac. Can't. Sorry. Still hope.

You think I was joking, Nog???

Okay, so it's dl according to my watch. I'll be back after a quick votecount, then let y'all know who's dead and what s/he was.

Then there'll be a brief save from Sally's account for future narrations.

Do not post.

Children of the Night (of whatever affiliation), please send your PMs to me; Sally has no internet.

Mac is dead. He was, at time of death, the closest thing we have to an Ordo in this village.

Noggie has survived by the skin of his biting tissue but is still being punished for Disobeying the Duck in some unrevealed manner (be it game-related or being forced to watch Caramelldansen over and over and over and over again).

Save

Utulie'n aure!

Nerwen, a dear sweet Duckie, has perished in the night.

So has Isabellkya, the Seer's Apprentice.

Discuss.

Save

A village all on its own.
 

Oh, by the way, someone should check the osmium content of this village's water.

Adam!

What? It's as if they'd get it.

Adam Barnaby Smith, if you do not stop--

Barnaby?! *snickers*

Oi, get out!

--insulting this village I will consequence you!

:(

Amusing oneself.
 

Ai, Nilp, how can you bear this solitude?

*hunkers down next to the campfire and amuses self by attempting to count and psychoanalyze all of his personalities*

Out to lunch after this one.
 

By posting every thirty minutes, of course. :D

Out! out! I thought you put me in charge?

If you wish to count us there is this, but if you wish to psychoanalyse us I'm afraid I can't help you.

I'm almost considering modfiring everyone but Nilp for not being online to entertain me, but considering that I'd modfire Nog if he were online and losing sleep that'd be rather rude.

Plus Sally would probably kill me. You know how it goes, the master of the house leaves for the weekend and the butler breaks out the best of the house's wine and sells it to the nearest drunks...

I suppose with so many of you around it's hard to get lonely, Nilp. :D

We can play a WW game all by ourselves! :D

With Adam as a bad guy? Won't it be obvious?

I'm not telling you again! Get out!

Well, once again, whatever happened...that was nice. We're in a lot better position than I thought we would be. As in, we're not all but doomed.

Apologies to Mac... ><

So for some reason I got a PM at the start of toDay telling me that there are 2 wolves toDay. Which I thought would have been pretty obvious. I'm wondering if this suggests that the numbers can still change? Or our lovely mods are just being consistent. ;)

So one of the many things I am confused about at this point - why did Izzy call herself the "seer tracker" but she turns up as the "seer's apprentice"? I know I'm being a bit nit-picky (maybe more than a bit, whatevs), but "tracker" is hardly a synonym for "apprentice" or something. Perhaps she just didn't want to reveal all about her role?

Her being the "seer's apprentice" suggests to me that she was indeed on our side. It seems more specific than "seer tracker", and the possibility of her being able to communicate with the seer makes sense then. So likely she was telling the truth about Nilp. Though he could certainly be another cobbler.

Why was Izzy killed (I assume by the wolves)? Yadda yadda. I'd guess because the wolves wanted to take out someone who was generally considered innocent but who they were sure to be able to kill without consequences.

Probably not wolves, in order of surety:
Lari if her hunter claim is to be believed. I rather thought the wolves would go after her tonight as with 3 left and a good day yesterDay they'd be in pretty good shape to risk it. But...
Nilp per Izzy...maybe a cobbler

Possibly wolves:
Nogrod
Fea
Mith...she is/was the "phantom's apprentice". We don't know if gifteds can be turned...with the number of gifteds in this game maybe, but *shrug*. I am wondering why she's still alive. Are the wolves afraid they will fail to kill her again? We still know nothing about her role except the name of it and the vague things she has claimed to have done, such as "delivering ducks". I can't help but be bothered by that.

4 against 2...with possibly a cobbler around...this is going to be a long Day.

To bed...

So, Nilp...could one of you be a wolf? ;)

I don't know dear, I haven't asked them all. (I haven't even taken a full census since last year. :D )

So, anyw--mmph!

*stuffs Nilp in a chest*

Adam! You didn't have to do that!

Okey-dokey.

4 against 2 means that we have to get it right toDay, otherwise it's game-over and we lose.

Unless our assassin manages once more to take one duck down on the next Night (theoretically that would make 2/5 chance) leaving the situation toMorrow at 2 against 1.

If we get it right toDay, it will be 3 against 1 toMorrow - or we might even win it straight.

But the problem here is that if we have a cobbler around s/he could aid the ducks in the voting - which could have catastrophic results. So it's even more important now that we innocents stick together with our votes - and heaven forbid there being also something like "true neutrals" here who could vote with a whim... or lovers who protect each other no matter what.

So it will be not only a question of getting it right ToDay but also about voting power and the alignements and loyalties of those special-roles we don't know about.

SO not true.
 

After a process of elimination of kinds - which I may be forced to explain a little later - I have come to two main candidates for being ducks.

I find Dury the most suspicious right now. Her self-proclaimed status as a duck-tracker sounds the most dubious at the moment. My other top suspect is Lari. Let me tell you why.

Dury announced yesterDay that: Making a bit too much noise about her having a role comparable to Izzy's "Seer Tracker"? So a nice "symmetrical" role or at least pointing out there being different "trackers" around lending credibility to her revealment? Interestingly enough Izzy was then told being the "Seer's Apprentice"... Which, as Dury rightly remarks, is quite a different thing.

I do not think this is making a mountain out of a molehill. For just why did she pick the term "tracker" to her role? It is possible Sally had given her that term but what a coincidence it then was that Izzy used the same term even if she was "an apprentice" in the first place... but understandable if Dury is faking.

But what initially made me suspect her role was the fact that a duck might pretty easily claim to be a "duck-tracker" as she would have the knowledge of how the numbers went being one of the bunch herself. And there would be some reasons to stick with the truth there as not to make any mistakes - but if she is indeed a duck then we should take those numbers with a pinch of salt.
(She isn't giving us less ducks than there are because there would be at least three of them then and they would have won already - so the question becomes: would she benefit of trying to make us believe there are more ducks there actually are?)

What about her very succesful voting record then? I think the ducks could afford that with their numbers steadily rising - and let's remember: on Day2 it was basically clear Lommy was going to get lynched so she had no good choices; and on Day3 Nienna and Kath were leading the votes together so she had only bad choices there and decided to defend the mother Goose... which would be an obvious choice.


Lari might be the hunter and might be not. The thing that talks on behalf of her being true is the fact that no one else has yet claimed to be a hunter and no hunter has been killed so far. But looking at Sally's list of the roles in this game there is only a "possible hunter" - as there is a "possible werebear", which we didn't have either.

Lari's problem with me sure is her voting record of going against our successful lynches quite consistently and avoiding discussion somewhat as to not show her cards (I need to check if my feeling of the last point about avoiding discussion indeed holds, when I have time).


Uh-oh. Just saw Nilp's vote... He is no duck as we know but let's hope now he is indeed the cobbler (if there is one left). *crosses fingers*

Possibly a minor detail to add... but something worth noticing.
Now why would you need to defend the possibility or believability of your role? Why did you feel the need to make us think your role is useful - or give us reasons why Sally would have come up with such a role?

If one is a duck-tracker then one is a duck-tracker and the raison d'être for that role is that Sally had made it such. But if one is coming up with a role oneself one might feel the need to explain why that kind of role is possible or believable.

Oh yes, a comment because Izzy had just revealed earlier that Day and claimed a similar name is a lot of noise. :rolleyes: I was wondering if she knew about my role or if the mods simply gave similar names...but apparently 'tis not the case.

Ah yes, of course. I guess I can't argue with that. But, I'm not a duck. And if I was a duck with knowledge of how my flock changed in size, I wouldn't share it when everyone else was ready to assume there were fewer wolves and they couldn't be among the seer dreams and such...especially since I think that there probably is now at least one wolf among those dreamed.

I was explaining my role, Noggie, dear. And yes, I was playing Captain Obvious - it was what went through my head when I first received the role. Why would just knowing how many wolves there are be useful? Well, if that number actually changes of course. Then I was like, uh oh. :eek: Okay, I'll stop now.

Also, in this game (and right now is proof), if you're nothing straightforward you do rather have to defend your role unfortunately.

Yes. Hows about you reveal what's special about you and we see if we believe you? :Merisu:

What I wonder is why you were so ready to believe me yesterDay and retaliate against Mac. I suppose it's about the vague "process of elimination" you suggest. This game isn't that straightforward and you know it.

I don't want to waste too much time defending myself toDay (hah, yes, I know...after that post?). And it is a waste.

I do wonder if that counts. Not that it really does anything.

Alignment knowledge not same as role knowledge.

Wish we knew what Mac did.
