I see. Attempted Nilp impersonation. But you should have voted for yourself instead of Jenny to do that properly. Still doesn't get you off the hook as far as I'm concerned.

At any rate, Jenny expressed suspicion of Nogrod here. I tend to believe in his innocence because of the discussion over his plan to reveal dreams. I disagree with the plan, and still think that it would benefit the orcs. BUT, if Nogrod were an orc, I would have expected him to back off as soon as potential orc benefits were pointed out. Instead, he defended the idea while admitting flaws, which seems to indicate genuine motivation rather than orcish scheming. Besides, he's generally been well-reasoned and informative today.

Attempted Nilp impersonation? I have no idea what you're talking about... all I'm doing is being myself... >_>

Anywho, I'm not trying to get off the hook, I'm trying to get lynched and if I don't get lynched on Day 1 or killed during Night 1, I'll behave and actually play properly...

So anyway,
Dear Were-Orcs,
Kindly kill me during Night 1. Thank you- Barrel Of Apples.

Oh and by the way, I believe Diamond's alright, she has the right mind-set in my opinion. *Tosses an apple at Diamond.*

Updating Nogrod's List

Roa 1 (Spawn I)
Diamond 3 (Celuien II, Jenny VI, Caran IX)
Glirdan 3 (Roa III, Findëasëa VII, Diamond X)
Jenny 1 (Sleepy IV)
Sleepy 2 (Glirdan V, Kitanna VIII)

Diamond
reached 3 first, so she's currently the one slated for death.

Thanks for the vote of confidence, Nogrod. I will be rather upset if I'm lynched today simply because I was enjoying myself. Makes the whole Werewolf endeavor here seem like a rather bleak and ungamelike experience, when the first and foremost reason for lynching someone is that you don't appreciate her roleplaying. Though I suppose being absent for a long time made me more suspicious than anything. I didn't go to bed last night until 7 AM, so I somewhat overslept. Still, I haven't been the most inactive player in this game.

I X-posted with a few people voting for Glirdan. Whew, I feel like I wriggled off the hook.

I'm too frazzled right now to really be supsicious of anyone, but I have to say all theses posts should make excellent reading over the Night and there might be lots of suspicious behavior to talk about tomorrow.

Quote:
It is true that Diamond18's posts lack significant substance, which is suspicious, but the detailed analyses of each elf (or orc) by certain players, such as Celuien and Norgrod could be a diversion.
I must say I am usually somewhat suspicious of analysis as substance, myself. All you have to do is post a summary of what other people have said. But since everyone it seems does analysis, it's somewhat a staple of the game, for better or worse. I just have my doubts as to how useful it really is when judging how much someone has contributed to the discussion. Still something I have to form an opinion on, as I play more games.

Why thank you Nogrod my friend! And due to this silly promise I made in some earlier post, I'll play normally on Day 2 and work to aid the village rather than trying to meet my own selfish desires.

PS- WereOrcs, please kill me!

Hey, analyzing posters like a certain penguin lover by the name Thin is hard work.

They have proved to be useful many times...

Oh dear, we have another crazed Elf on our hands. What's in those apples?

I'm starting to feel bad about voting for Diamond. Upset tone of post completely understandable.

With 10 minutes left in the day, Nogrod had better get his vote in.

Edit: As well as Grendelien, Zali, Naria, and Legolas iS

If I have this right, the leading candidates are:

Diamond 3
Glirdan 3
Sleepy 2


Sleepy seems to wish to die, but that may not be wise, because he might be innocent anyhow.

Glirdan has not been so bad, as his numbers tell him to have been.

Diamond I feel innocent - was unhappy with her lead in votes all the time - even though wondered myself her way of playing at the beginning...

Let's focus now, the rest of us!

Grendelien?
Zali?
Naria?
Legolas iS? (where are you???)

EDIT: X-posted with Roa & Celuien

She's online now, viewing the Mirth Forum at last check. I posted on the TiG thread to see if I could get her to switch to invisible mode and stop in before the deadline...

Am I the only one to vote here?

I could give Sleepy his death if he wants to, but it would take two!

Glirdan is useful, normally, if not an orc, and Diamond probably more so... I was quite taken by the honesty of her annoyance.

EDIT: X-posted with the last QUITE MANY - THOUGHT OF TWO...

Well, as Glirdan is lynched already, I might fulfill your wish...
