Before you encourage tp to challenge me toDay, bear in mind - he scried Durelin last night, which means there is no seer now. He'll be leaving you with only a ranger to help you.

Not that it matters to me, but I just thought you might like to consider that.

What she said. I think a Seer WOULD be handy, but if phantom wants to challenge toDay, I think we could get along without one. I'm fine either way.

*sigh* I was being facetious, but it was fun to see the reactions. Of course I realize that the voting record tells us little if anything but I did crack up at the resonses, so thanks.

Well, yeah, but I always do them anyway....just in case they DO turn out to be handy.



Bah. One of the downsides of losing Phantom? We lose the amusement and basicallly endless flow of posts. *is bored*

See, that's why we use smilies. We can't hear tone or see expression, after all.

Wait a minute. I think I've just made an important discovery. I didn't think it was possible, but it turns out I was wrong. This could change the WORLD!




Morm can kid?

Also, I'm glad Gwath didn't vote for Nilp yesterday. I'm determined to be the first unanimous lynchee in Werewolf history.

Dur, start talking. *pokes with pitchfork*

Want to get started on that? (++....)





Okay, I know Rikae is guilty and it's been obvious for a while, but I'm wondering why Gwath voted her, LITERALLY, a minute after the narration. Especially since she's the EW, and lynching her would do nothing. It seems off to me, like he's trying too hard to do the right or the "innocent" thing.


EDIT: I lied. It was two minutes after the narration. But you get the point anyway.

3rd: Yeah, about that. *awkward*

I kind of assumed that Rikae was a wolf rather than EW until mid-yesterDay, went tp basically affirmed her to be, in fact, the latter. I also assumed that everybody thought of Rikae the same way as myself, and I reckoned I'd vote as soon as I could. Why waste time discussing a foregone conclusion?

My other reason for voting as soon as I possibly could was just for the heck of it. To say I'd done it, I suppose.

Okay fine, don't post. I need to get to bed anyway, so this is to let you know I'll be back in about....erm....10-11 hours, if I feel like getting up in the morning (not likely, as I have a huge headache and my heart's being....well, stupid) and if I'm not in then I'll be in about 4 hours pre deadline.



Hoping to see you all then. Until then, good night, and sleep well dearies.




EDIT: Happy belated 500th post to MEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *toddles off for real now*

Anyway, on a more serious note, I think Lommy has changed her tone. I always find it interesting how some will change style based upon what others have stated. I feel that her behavior is trying to counter what I said about her yesterday.

You're on my side now, Dur. Is there anything helpful you can offer? How much did the EW tell you?
Quote:
because phantom wanted me as a seer
Kind of. I made a list of four people that were potential WWs but not obviously suspicious and so would also stand a decent chance of surviving if turned into the Seer.

Yes, a Seer would certainly be handy, but at the same time 14-2 is a really nice set up. You can lynch incorrectly five times with that ratio.

I mean, sure, I could very well have a fantastic night and introduce my Seer and Ranger to each other and leave the village tomorrow, but you still have a good chance of winning with the village as it is, and there is no guarantee of how the Night will go. We might have yet another trade- she makes a WW, I uncurse a WW, and what would be the use of that? Plus I think things would be much more entertaining for most of you with Rikae and I out of the way.

And I could finally catch up on sleep.

Exactly. If nothing else, the game shouldn't keep you from feeling okay, so I'm definitely up for a Wizard challenge toDay.

Besides, if she makes another wolf then it makes the game....well, basically a standard game but without a seer.

Meh. Do whatever you want, Phantom, oh favorite cousin of mine. (What? Half of them are dead!)

Anyway, I'm going to watch some more of the Lakers-Celtics game, then shower, then bed.

I'll check the thread briefly tonight and again in the morning.

If I decide to challenge I'm going to do it last minute without giving Nogrod any warning.

Meh. I'd like a Seer but I seem to be in the minority.

Don't get me wrong, I'd like one too. But I think we could do without one. (Unless you were planning on scrying me, that is. I love being Seer....hint hint)




EDIT: x'd with Phantom. (I think he'd kill you.... Go to bed!)

I wonder if Rikae WOULD have scried Lal into a wolf. I mean, would she be that obvious? I think she'd just be happy to get a gifted out of the way. What do you all think?

You're a terrible person, you know that?


Nightie night, Phantom. Sleep well.

She may have in order to get the information that she holds (if she knows the ranger, etc), and counted on us thinking it was too obvious.

Of course, if Lal is a werwolf, then toDay is her first Day as a baddie. Seeing as she hasn't even posted yet, I'll wait on that line of thought. I don't have a great deal of time, but someone should analyze Rikae's posts. She was willing to risk revealing to save Cailin. She may have done some other things in favor of her wolves.

We needn't wait for Durelin. I'll hopefully be back soon.
