Don't you now make a mountain out of a molehill... and everyone calm down.
(And Mac, I'm not reading anything personally so don't you worry...)

Not all of you have played with us enough. I mean this is, if not normal, still something that is nicely within the bounds.

Rikae once almost fooled a whole village by going "personal". That's no news. And as I said, she used that card then looking like a gravely hurt person. Now she has no option with the same card in my eyes - and should not have that chance with anyone familiar with that game either - or anyone. Sorry Rikae, but some options can be used only once: trying them another time will just call for lack of confidence. I mean she really looked credibly personally hurt in that game and tried to exploit it that way... and to all of you who will think "but this is different" I will just say she was even more convincing that time... this is nothing compared to it. (well she didn't say she was about to commit a suicide but it was not far from that... )

Although I must say I raise my hat (had I one!) to your last try where you put me in the good side. I know you are able of that but at the same time it actually makes me more wanting to vote for you just to get rid of one baddie.

Had you not said that, I might have done exactly as you proposed... I mean I was really rethinking your role in this game but that kind of warned me again about you again. Reasonableness and calmness are signs of wolvery as well as panic and frustration. It depends on the person...

The way you portray the situation makes me wawer even if you're right with the fact that my "objectivity" with you is going farther down the drain... I mean just look at your initial points or your later elaborations of them and think again! But let's not discuss it here. We have better things to do. We should have a good friendly discussion though, but that should take place after this game.

(And please remember Mac, that I'm not annoyed at you. I may have been annoyed at the way you played yesterDay but that's a different thing... and if you're a baddie that was just pure excellence!)

EDIT: Oops, a lot of posts in between the last one I saw...

You seriously think that, if it was a "card" I "played", I would actually do it again? I'm telling you, it's my personality. It's no reason to consider me innocent, I'll grant you, but it's also no reason to consider me guilty.

Rikae certainly does confuse me. She seems frustrated to the point where she's no longer making sense...but that could point to innocence or guilt. Right now I'm more suspicious than not because as Nogrod said, she's pulled this off before as a baddie and I don't want to fall for a bluff. Then again, a small part of me doubts my suspicion.

So far out of all the candidates, Rikae is most likely the one I'll be voting for unless something drastically changes. Because while I do have a bit of doubt, I worry that I'll later regret if I don't vote her. And anyway, simply knowing her role will give me a sigh of relief rather than just be left wondering..
