Sally, did you change your post? I swear it read something differently a second ago...

Alas it appears this will be my dying post, so I shall wish you all good luck in your balrog hunting endeavors, just in cae. I hope to play again with you all soon either way!

Yeah I did. Sorry I miscounted the votes and was saying a quick goodbye was all. Basically "good luck guys" but since I miscounted I just edited my post so I didnt have to post again about Legate and stuff.

Given that I saw the content I don't know what to do - faux naive... Nerwen, legate is quite good to have around ..... this lovers thing bothers me - makes it hard to be definite about folk

Sorry about that, just a little jumpy today. I put the original information back in. My mistake :S

It's a try... a random roll whether someone crossposts with me or not

EDIT: x-ed with Brinn. Now I wonder what I have done by this.

Day3 ends

The day passed in heated debates and accusations were flying around like lime-coloured rectangular flying saucers. In the end, the miners found it really difficult to choose whether to lynch Brinniel or Sally. They obviously couldn't settle the matter by voting as there were precisely as many for lynching Brinn and for lynching Sally. ”What shall we do?” Gil-Galad voiced the popular thought.

”I know!” Mith said, ”Let's toss a coin!”
”A coin?” Nerwen asked sceptically.
”But of course! Not a real coin, but we make a coin of them!” Kath said, ”Brinniel, which one you'd prefer to be, heads or tails?”
”Heads...”, she said, wondering what kind of trap she was walking into.
”I'll have tails then”, Sally said.

So the miners took a rope and tied Brinn and Sally back against back.
”Now, we should just somehow toss them and see which one lands on the top”, Nogrod observed.
”Let's take them to that high rock over there and throw upwards”, Shasta suggested.
No one except Sally and Brinn disagreed so they brought the two young ladies to the rock.

”One”, said Naria,
”Two”, said Mith,
”THREE!” said Kath and the miners thusted Brinniel and Sally in the air. The young women screamed while the other miners applauded wildly.

THUMP. Brinniel and Sally hit the ground. Sadly for Sally, Brinniel landed on the top. Even though Brinniel was not heavy, her weight, the considerable height and the speed had performed their task. Sally was no longer among the living.
Laying in a pool of blood and broken bones, Brinniel passed out.

”Now I wonder what we have done by this”, Legate muttered.
