Tol-in-Gaurhoth XIX: Ang Sagang Daga, bow.

[Eomer of the Rohirrim]

Cailín, because we are the only ones who negate each other, it figures that, when on the same team, we will prove victorious.

Very funny, Samwise. I have informed that treacherous snake of a sister, Lhunardawen, that it was particularly tragic to be slain by my best friend. Leave your trust behind you in this game! I was quite ready to defend Samwise the day after I was killed. I was unhappy with the villagers for going after him, which made my delight at his unmasking all the greater.

Perish, fell lupine beast!

Caran, I enjoyed killing innocent villagers with your brother in a past life. Send my regards, won't you? And congratulations for this game!

Well done, Nilp.

Garin and Anguirel, I was very sorry to see you two go first. In the skill of entertaining, you are worth a village of your own.

I have to agree. Each of Anguirel's posts had me doubled up in laughter. If you two had lived and Farael had not been a Lover (freeing him to vote for himself) this could have been the craziest village ever.

Oathsworn sounds nice. Dark, too.

Ok Garin, since you asked so nicely. Here is Night 1's PMing:

Nilps PM:
Hail, Lhunardawen of the Havens, Formendacil of the Daga, Kath of the Holy Mountain, and SamwiseGamgee of the Warg-lovers!

You were ordinary villagers, once . . .

. . . until one fateful day fell spirits under the dominion of Sauron, lieutenant of Morgoth, came to Ened-in-Nowhere and inhabited your bodies.

By DAY, you retain your fair semblance . . .

. . . but by NIGHT, the fell spirits take over your body and mind, and you are transformed into Werewolves.

You may talk among yourselves at any time, DAY or NIGHT, forming strategies and planning NIGHT kills. But beware: For one of you, love overcomes even the will of Morgoth himself.

Good luck, and good hunting.
Nilpaurion Felagund the Prophet.


Night 1 - Form
I am going to devour Nilp. He deserves it. I specifically told him I wanted to be an Ordo.

So what I am doing here as a Wolf, huh?

Who's with me? I say we eat Nilp!

I suppose it would be asking too much for the Werewolf who is the Lover to come out an proclaim him/herself? Alas...

Meanwhile, Day 1 tactics....

Be random, be vaguely suspicious: do NOT follow each other's patterns. Obvious stuff, really. We're all experienced somewhat at this game, I believe.

I'll probably do my usual Day 1 nonsense/silly opening post, and follow up with as many posts in a more sensible, albeit lighthearted "Day 1s are useless" vein as I can manage.


Night 1 – Lhuna
He tells me this is completely random, but can you believe him? This is absurd! I'm sure I'll have a wonderful time werewolfing with you guys.

Okay Formendacil, Nilp it is. ++NILP

A suicidal Lover? Tall order, that. I'm sure we'll find him/her as the game progresses, and we'll do with him/her and his/her lover as they deserve.

As always, we should commence on our Seeriffs hunt right away. They're a powerful duo and we CANNOT let them live long.

By the way, what say you on wolf-on-wolf votes? Is Day 1 safe enough for that? I think it's beginning to be a trend so villagers are more likely to look for possible Day 1 wolf-on-wolf votes now.

Don't worry, I won't go Lhunatic even with the Full Moon approaching. I have to be the least bit odd, though; it's expected of me. But I won't go so far as to be suicidal, I promise.

Oh look...we can PM Day and Night! This should be fun... *evil smilie*


Night 1 – Kath
Well, since I was wondering why we had started with a Day phase and why we had to kill Nilp Don't worry, I'm sure I'll get my act together eventually!

So two Seers. We've mostly experienced players this game so I doubt we'll get any slips in the game. Unfortunately all that leaves us with is dumb luck.

Lhuna if you think people will be watching for wolf-on-wolf votes perhaps we should do it and make that point for why suspicion lands on us. If that makes sense.

Now question, this wolf-lover, are they definitely going to betray us? Is that the entire point of their role?

Kath


Night 1 – SamwiseGamgee
Well, after some earlier confusion I'm glad to say I now know my fellow wolves.

So, wolf against wolf votes? Well, everyone is so incredibly paranoid in WW nowadays that I don't know how much trying to bluff, double bluff, triple bluff or even quadruple bluff will work. Still, we shall try!

I think we ought to focus on killing those pesky villagers before we turn on one another. This'll probably count against me, because it does sound pretty loverish. But I'm not, so there!


Night 1 – Form
I would say no...

The Lover's intent to is to survive with his/her lover until the end of the game. At this point in the game, therefore, there is no reason for the ends of the Lover to not be agreeable to the ends of the Wolves.

As long as we don't kill off the Innocent Lover, there is no reason why the Wolf Lover shouldn't be completely agreeable and acceptable to all of our plans.

Why, Kath, are YOU the Wolf Lover?


Night 1 – Lhuna
I didn't really mean turning on each other, just those innocent little seemingly random votes on a fellow wolf for the first Day. You know, those things that more or less clear you once the wolf you voted for is found out to be indeed lupine...

Then again, they can also be tricky. So why do it when someone else is worthy of our helpful votes, right?

Tricksy timezones. So sorry fellow wolves if I might be a bit of a hindrance because of it...


Night 1 – Form
Very tricky...

I managed it in Alcarillo's game, I may well not manage it again, were I to try...

The timezones are on them this time...

Thank you Spawn for your missed vote!

Anyway, I'll see you all on the other side.


Night 1 – SamwiseGamgee
Well, fellow lupines, it will soon be time. I'm toying with the idea of posting early- as in first post.
We may have to wait and see how things go, but perhaps we can pick up on someone voting early or being quiet. I know there are excuses on the original WW thread, but if we can get a bandwagon rolling. However, this could backfire: we don't want to be seen to be following one another.
Also: let's be very aware that there are double lynchings.
Finally: Form- how do you reply to PMs?
Feast well, my friends!


Night 1 – Lhuna
I'm online too, but I'm thinking if I should post early. Hmm...two early posters...and both lupine...

Thanks for reminding me of double-lynchings, Samwolf. We have to take advantage of that. Lynching two innocents side by side is a tradition.

I'll answer for Formendacil if it's okay: click on the "Quote" button.

The time draws nigh...


Night 1 – SamwiseGamgee
Not gonna have time to post early- now leaving for work, so feel free Lhuna

[Garin]

Thanks, Kath...

[Glirdan]

Two things:

1) Great game

2) Does anybody read the original thread?? Or do you all go on and forget about it and vote for someone even though they can't defend themselves??? Grrr!!! I can't believe none of you realised that I hadn't posted once that day anywhere except for the original thread!! It's shocking!! Unless you did after I was lynched. Oh well, enough ranting.

Wolves, great job.

Lhuna, I had a feeling that you weren't at all ordinary from the get-go and (as you saw by a few things which I said [even though I mixed the names up{sorry about that btw}])I had a feeling you were a Lover.

Kath, great job on your first Werewolf role (I think).

Caran, great first game.

Everyone else, as I said above, great game!!

[littlemanpoet]

I admit that I tend to forget to check the original thread. I also admit that in your case, Glirdan, it wouldn't have mattered.

[Thinlómien]

Wolf-logic is interesting...

A question: how much did you wolves use the right to pm during days?
