Kath doing a Kitalysis too? Excellent. Having two different analyses or summaries is always better than just one.

Kitanna about others #28 Legate is sort of innocent & helpful, I am sort of innocent, Samwise, Gwath and Gollum are in the middle and are restating stuff Legate said. #33 Says to Gwath that restating stuff is muddying the waters. Asks Rune if he can clarify why does he think I might be trying to trick other villagers. #35 Clarifies her wording for Nog who didn't understand her. #41 Thanks Rune for clarifying, says my list may mean absolutely nothing but might come in handy later, notes that Kath, Groin and Di haven't appeared yet. #57 Questions Sam's behaviour, argues with Legate, asks Gollum to give grounds for why he thinks I'm acting queerly. #68 Says she finds Sam a little suspicious, replies to Nogrod. #71 Votes Kath randomly. Others about Kitanna Me in #21 - don't like her way of just popping in to say hi. I say she could be a wolf trying to maintain a presence, (but I don't really think that way). Gwath in #30 - is offended byt Kit saying he's merely restating stuff. Nogrod #34 - is puzzled about her, says her sayings are interesting. Wonders if she's looking for easy lynches (Sam, Gwath, Golly) and says that if he'd have to vote right then he'd vote Sam or Kit. Rune #36 - answers her question. Legate #38 - replied to her saying he's helpful. Sam #40 - says she's probably innocent. Legate #42 - is not sure about her. Legate #46 - gets what she meant about my list. Nogrod #67 - says she feels innnocentish but has reservations. Legate #72 - says he won't vote her. Kath #78 - says she seems bit time limited. What??? And that's it. I couldn't note anything special she said/did that would look like a reason to her death, unless you discount the fact that she's very smart. She wasn't the only smart person in this village, though, so that's a bad reason... Okay, what about those contacts then? Difficult to say. At least I don't think she talks seerishly about anyone's guilt or innocence. There's no one that should be afraid of her future attacks and thus want to remove her either as she doesn't really suspect anyone strongly. I can't think of anyone who would have any other special reason to kill her either. So I think the reason lies elsewhere. Maybe she was just killed in order to confuse us or leave no tracks. edit: xed with everybody since my last post |
I have to go right now, I've given my reasons and Lommy is at the top of my suspect list right now (Nogrod is still next, but hasn't shown his true colors yet:)).
++Lommy EDIT: X'ed with Lommy and Mith |

Also the way you let us understand that Kit suddenly realised Sam was a gifted and shut her mouth (but Nogrod went on lynching him because of that) has just plain malice in it. Who of you really thought Sam was a gifted, hand on your heart, yesterDay? Quote:

Kath misquoting the thread - could be a tactic Kath misinterpreting people - could be a tactic Kath choosing which things to quote - could be a tactic. Wonderful arguments, aren't they? :D Although I'd like to hear where I have misunderstood something? Even more so if you think that has been tactical... Oh my, yet again a host of posts done while I've been fact-checking... |
Heya, folks. Not sure if I'm gonna be able to post before the DL (I am posting from my RPG-friends'), but I will try to at least read the thread and maybe vote - according to my thoughts before. Haven't read the thread yet since my last post, just letting you know, so that you know (I may also not vote at all, in the worst case).
|
Woah Nogrod, no. I wasn't saying that you thought Samwise was Gifted and therefore kept going after him, simply that Kitanna may have figured it out and backed off. I never thought that you'd worked it out.
I will go back and look at the 'fodder' thing. I may well have got names muddled actually as I thought it seemed odd that Legate would mention the same comment twice. If you're right on that then I apologise and my opinions switch. You look more innocent, Legate more suspicious. |
Quote:
I don't really know what to think of Groin's sudden change of opinion. Seems rather fishy, if you ask me. I mean, he stops suspecting Nogrod because other people don't? Huh? And then he starts suspecting me with rather questionable grounds. I appreciate he reasons his sayings but I don't agree with what he says about me. I know I don't (didn't ;)) really suspect anyone, but that just sometimes happens. And I think it's a bad reason to suspect someone who's critical. Being uncritical is far more questionable, if you ask me. Groin seems also a bit too easily charmed by helpfulness: it doesn't even look like it's his honest reaction to "helpful posting" but like using the argument as a means of exonerating a few people easily. (Could be even exonerating fellow wolves, who knows.) I didn't suspect Groin at all before this, I think people were misundertasning his campaign against Nogrod, but with a few post Groin managed to make it to my top suspect. Great. :D edit: xed with Legate and Kath |
++ Legate of Amon Lanc
Not too helpful to be a traitor.. and there was that paradigm thing and the vote for Sam. I don't believe a traitor would pass up the chance to bag a gifted (if Samwise was "spotted" on day one just not to look suspicious. |
We seem to be going as mad as yesterDay...
Rune -> Mith Brinn -> Groin Gollum -> Nogrod Di -> Brinn Groin -> Lommy Mith -> Legate Six votes, six candidates! Not good! Whomever Gollum would have voted I'm somewhat ready to vote him out just because of that attitude: Quote:
I mean we're sharing a game here and the game consists of people actually playing the game. And if someone wishes to test the limits of the game we should as the players of that game make them clear. But I hope I have better ideas before the end. Groin's sudden change of mind kind of makes me wonder... And Kath's seemingly intentional misrepresentations also raise an eyebrow. And I have not forgotten my theory of lovers added in three Nights in a row when the first pair is Lommy and Legate but of the second one I have no clue as yet. Maybe it's only after them (three pairs) the real villain will be introduced - something like a werebear kind of creature who wins alone or with the remaining lover-pairs. Remember, in pairs they come... EDIT: X'd with a few and corrected the tally after Mith's vote |
Hmm, I don't want to risk it and would rather vote now. I WILL be at the Downs, but it may be in about an hour or even more (hour and fifteen minutes, hour and half), and that may not be sufficient even for Eomer's benevolent DL.
Anyway, I haven't really READ the thread, merely skimmed through it, and I did not see anything too special that would catch my eye, although a few things maybe did, but I couldn't look into them deeper. Anyway - from all people, I am now thinking about voting Brinn, I would merely second what I said before: even though she seems posting more today than before, she is too unconflicting, too "nice" in the way that non-attention-bringing, you know the stuff... And Quote:
Therefore ++Brinniel EDIT: x-ed since my last post And one word to Nogrod: Oh my, but sure you are not being THAT serious... (okay, that was 10 words :D (originally just two)) |
Ok, I don't know if I will be here until the deadline, it's rather late and I have still some school stuff to do before I got to sleep (or then I have to wake up earlier tomorrow because of them). Well, we'll see how this goes...
Now, a little summary-ish. Innocentish Gaunt - speaks in a way a wolf just wouldn't. Rune - I get a good feel from his posts. He mostly makes sense and seems innocent. Slightly innocentish Nogrod - seems innocently reasonable and jokes like innocent Nogrod usually does. Also has the agrressive edge a wolf-Nogrod often lacks. But he's very good at bluffing, so I'm very far from certain... Middle Legate - I find it hard to say anything about him. There's nothing to make me alarmed, but I know he can cheat a whole village (like someone said) and he does have any "aura of innocence" either. I think I need to keep an eye on him. Shasta - I don't feel I have enough data to go on. Mith - has some valid points and a generally slightly innocentishly feel, but is fishily single-minded (doesn't talk about other people than me very much). Diamond - well, really, what can you say? I hope she will have more time in future... Gwath - sleeps under my reindeer, really. I have a vague recollection he has made me uneasy in this game, but I don't remember why. Maybe I should go through his posts and check. He lacks the jumpiness of the wolf-Gwaths I've known, though. Slightly suspicious Kath - this is a gut-feeling thing. She just seems fishy, somehow, her tone seems insincere. Brinniel - seems a little jumpy and some things she says just don't make much sense. Gollum - I have hard time trying to decide whether he's so fishy because he's a newbie, or because he's a wolf. He doesn't seem to give much reasons for his opinions and goes with the flow. Suspicious Groin - see my previous post. edit: xed with Mith, Noggie and Leggie |
Hmmm... now that was some good points against Legate and Brinn. I know they've been stated before but now they started to make more sense. I need to think about these things...

In that case we lose one innocent if we lynch him. Btw. if you ask me why I keep on bringing up that lover-idea I'm just wishing you to remember that is a possibility when I'm not around reminding you about it. four or six baddies in a village of 15 is just too much, even if they foght each other as well. But three pairs of lovers with an extra baddie might limit a believable scenario. I'll have to check that narration for toDay once more to see if there is any sense in this... |

That "whatever wargs are" stuff makes me a bit nervous about my interpretation might be true indeed (or then Eomer is just toying with that idea I brought forwards yesterDay and playing me for a fool). I mean why say "whatever wargs are" if not hinting at different ways some of us are tied into this carnage - like with lovers one is the baddie and one is the "goodie" with the intention of her/his baddie winning... But this rest is just Greek to me ("Hebrew to me" would be the Finnish wording of the same thing): Quote:

About 15 minutes left. Get your votes in soon!

I just realised it's less than 15min until the deadline... :eek: I will probably vote Groin but I'm having slight last-minute doubts... edit: xed with the modgod |
So, Brinn and Legate at two votes, I, Nogrod, Groin and Mith at one? It's either Groin or Brinn for me, then...
|
There are Brinn and Legate with 2 votes and Gollum has none, so we'd need three for him.
Of those two I'd trust Brinn more than Legate. As you said Lommy, Groin is a possibility but I'm afraid of the outcome as well... Looking at the more assuring side of it: he tried to capitulate with the flow they had after the ranger was lynched and he saw there was a chance to get me into the hook but backtracked when he saw it was turning against him... EDIT: X'd with Lommy |
Ok, I had initially meant to see if Groin maintained his attack against Nogrod tomorrow in order to better judge the motives behind it; however, the rapidity with which he dropped the suspicion toDay after it was called into question by a number of players looks to me like evidence of a guilty conscience, and his explanation (i.e. he was only "testing" Nogrod) is nothing if not flimsy.

Well that was sealed now anyway...
Now we'll just keep our thumbs up. And don't you forget the lovers idea... :smokin: |
Closed. Groin Redbeard will die shortly.

The Warg Elders had remained peaceable, even by this stage of proceedings. Rancour had not yet come between them, though the panic they found themselves in was sure to lead to bitterness, directed by cruel tormentors.
Groin Redbeard had been today chosen. He peered around his shaking self, unsure of how to act: his friends were about to cut his throat. They leapt upon him, and the deed was done swiftly. Redbeard’s yowl of pain halted, and his once proud form limped to the floor. It remained there, pitiful and unchanging. The Elders had again chosen not well; another innocent Warg had been taken from the world, and it was thus diminished. --------------------------------------------- The Living Legate of Amon Lanc Thinlómien Kath Nogrod Gwathagor Shastanis Althreduin Brinniel Mithalwen Diamond Gollum The Great Rune Son of Bjarne Gaunt The Dead SamwiseGamgee (Guardian) Kitanna (Warg) Groin Redbeard (Warg) Night 3 is upon us. There is no talking in the village. Villains, send me a name; Seer, send me a name. |
In the blackest night, a figure entered the ancient hold of the Wargs; and with the first rays of the sun to reach Middle-earth, in stole another.
The walls of Eomer had been studied further, in the gloom of the dusk, and through the night by some Wargs who could find no sleep. Incrementally, more of Eomer’s words were brought to light. Tied by the same rope, they part not, though the master who follows his abettors walks in ignorance, seeing us only. His brother knows him, and is hidden from him, driven by a purpose involving us not heavily; yet the murder of one Warg, as was required for him to enter into and thrive in our council, is the same evil. So we find them, locked in war: it reaches even here. Every night a good Warg slain. Salvific council! Behold thon savage aperture! It splits our delusion and forces the admission of helplessness, of our pain. Nogrod was found that morning, his guts ripped open. That splendid Warg of unsurpassed intellect among the Elders of that period, his great mind would be lost for time unknown. His fellows were devastated. ------------------------------------------------- The Living Legate of Amon Lanc Thinlómien Kath Gwathagor Shastanis Althreduin Brinniel Mithalwen Diamond Gollum The Great Rune Son of Bjarne Gaunt The Dead SamwiseGamgee (Guardian) Kitanna (Warg) Groin Redbeard (Warg) Nogrod (Warg) Day 3 has begun. |
Nogrod died? That was quite unexpected... he was suspected quite a lot. Was he suspected of seerdom, then? (Or is somebody trying to get rid of dangerous people, or confuse us, or what?) Interesting, no doubt... I will have a look at Nogrod's posts (aiee what a job :rolleyes: :D) sometime toDay, possibly right now, and see if they reveal something.
|
No one else around? Fine... Then I will have a look at Nog's posts from yesterDay now.
|
Wow! This comes as a complete surprise! This completely alters my view on Nogrod.
|
I'm not going to make a proper analysis as it would take ages and I don't feel it would be of that much use. I'll just post here the things that caught my attention:
Nogrod suspected Gollum and Gwath, just a little, for dropping in and voting at the last minute on the previous Day. Ended up suspecting Gollum more than Gwath. Suspected Kath. (Half-jokingly) suspected Lommy and Legate of loverism. Nogrod thought innocent Mith, Brinn and Gaunt. I don't think Nogrod's suspicions look seerish. He's too uncertain about them and/or has too many reservations. His list of innocents then... maybe? Maybe something in the way he talked about Brinn and Mith and Gaunt made the wolves think he had dreamt of two of them? I think he at least supported Mith and Brinn's innocence without much reservations... Hm.... Others' attitudes to Nogrod Gwathagor considered him innocentish. Rune was unsure about him but inclined to consider him innocent. Legate didn't find him particularly suspicious. Gollum suspected him. Brinn wasn't enthusiastic to lynch him. Gaunt argued with him and suspected him a little. Kath found him suspicious but retracted much of that later when Nogrod corrected her. Lommy found him innocentish. The rest did not talk about him yesterDay. I don't know what to make of this. It really doesn't look like anyone would have had especially many or few reasons to kill him. Except that Brinn and Rune and if there were other people who did so too would be rather two-faced if they were wolves: say they don't want to lynch Nog and then go and kill him. I'm not saying it's impossible or even improbable, but it's rather nasty. ;) Nogrod tried to interpret the rules a few times. Maybe the wolves know more than we do and killed him because he was getting too close to the truth about the rules? (Like, maybe I and Legate really are lovers and were scared he would convince others that his so very serious theory is correct? :rolleyes: ;)) He didn't have any very clear theories though, except the possibility of lovers, which I myself consider unlikely. I think we would know if this was a lover game and I think no mod would start the game with just two baddies who both die and lose the game if one of them dies. Looks a little too unfair. Okay, in conclusion: I think Nogrod was killed to a) remove a smart guy, b) to confuse us or c) because he was suspected of seerism and at least two of Mith, Brinn and Gaunt are innocent. edit: xed with Golly |
Nogrod, dead, eh? Well that can only mean one thing; the culprit(s) are quiet people! Who fear Nogrod's searching eye and also find it annoying to have to read all his posts in the short time they have online before they have to make a post/vote. So, you know, I don't know who around here could possibly fit that bill... ;)
In all seriousness though, I do kind of find Nogrod to be an odd choice for a kill. He garners a lot of attention and would be someone you could try to rustle up a lynch mob for. The only reason I can think of to kill him at night is suspicion of seerdom. Quote:
