Okay, first decent post.
Things that caught my eye Day 1, from my reading:
Bit of an early-on banter-scuffle between
Nerwen and
Elf-Warrior,
Formendacil and
Boromir.
Formendacil's bit of a throwaway vote for
Nogrod on the grounds, basically, that "it's Day 1, oh well". (
Nogrod agrees with me, post #55... but then he would, wouldn't he?
)
Nerwen seeing a wolf in "the
Agan/
Nilp/
Form brawl". Personally I don't see one. (
Kitanna does, though, post #52.) I see
Agan replying to a couple of
Form's statements, and
Nilp with a bit of unfounded suspicion. To me, the odd one out here is
Nilp.
Durelin is, as usual, more concerned with amusement than anything else. Not that that's a bad thing, necessarily, because I do have to join her in "guffawing" at
Eonwe's first post, which smacks of trying too hard.
Ka seems to be metagaming a bit (#71) which I frown upon on principle, but not harshly (
). Something about her "oh you may suspect me, but I don't suspect you, see how affable I am" attitude in this post strikes me as somehow off, though, even if
Agan's suspicions
were facetious.
I agree with
Mith's #79 about
Sally's bit of opportunism - er, her vote. I'm curious as to why
Eomer then voiced suspicion of
Mith (#84), calling her an early-vote critic, when both
Form and
Kitanna had people critique their early votes (
Agan and
Nogrod respectively). In fact, there was quite a lot of discussion about
Kitanna's vote and the reasoning behind it. Why wait until
Mith posted critiquing
Sally's vote? Interestingly,
Boromir does the same in #91.
In fact,
Eomer's been suspicious of
Mith since before her vote (#64). Hmm...
In #98,
Eonwe votes for
Mith without having previously had any suspicions against her (that I could see, anyway). Curiously, this post comes right after
Eomer's post, coincidentally also voting for
Mith. Eonwe X'ed with it, apparently... but...
Kath random-votes. At least she's honest. Of course, a random-vote during Day 1 is nearly guaranteed not to be followed up, making it quite safe (and possibly wolf-on-wolf).
Hmm. In #102,
Nogrod expressly edits, mentioning
Eonwe's edit to say he X'd with
Eomer, but apparently did not X with anyone above him, leading me to an odd conclusion. To quote Alice; "Curiouser and curiouser!"
I like
Nerwen in #107, where she mentions what I've garnered so far about
Eomer and
Eonwe.
"So be it",
Elf-warrior, I think your vote in #116 is suspicious as it "just happens" to make
Sixth the frontrunner in votes.
So, my list (as it is) is as follows:
Suspicious:
Eomer, Eonwe
Sort-Of Suspicious:
Kath, Sally, Elf-warrior
Mediocre: Everyone not mentioned above or below this line -----------------------
Not-So Suspicious:
Nogrod
Not Suspicious:
Mith, Nerwen
Thanks,
Ka, for clearing up the
McCaber business.
I find it amusing that a crossbow is the weapon of choice for our dear Ranger - and why are we in tents anyway? I miss civilization.
