I thought I also said everyone has a part to play? Anyway, the basic thing I was trying to say is my plans are all an attempt to get the seer as many dreams as possible because that is how we'll win. Yes, everyone is needed, some prefer to look at votes, come to conclusions, others like to go based on a lot of feeling...and etc. I don't play conservatively, I may be a distraction right now, if you want to lynch me for that go ahead. But, I'm telling you what I'm doing, now take it or leave it.

Oh, so you interpretted the quote differently, Green? Well, I think Nog didn't like that quote either earlier today, so perhaps my wording wasn't well selected. Sorry.

And I see that both Sally and Nog have stated that they want to move on from this.

Excellent.

Er... now what do we talk about?

8 pages in one Day? And there's me thinking it might get quieter as the game went on. So, here are some thoughts on toDay:

Boro - now here's an odd thing actually, if Boro pushed this Agan kill deliberately and anticipated the set up then why the 'just my luck' comment? Why seem mildly surprised or exasperated if he was expecting it. Although, note that phantom actually gave him the out of that explanation, Boro only said that had been his plan after phantom suggested it. I think I can see where people are coming from in their suspicion of Boro. I must say that I think Boro is more than capable of digging his own grave as an innocent because I have seen him do it on a number of occasions, and I think that's what he's doing here.

Nerwen - I don't think there was anything suspicious about her comment. Some people are just better at predicting kills.

Ilya - the response to phantom's comments makes me certain that they're not a wolf pairing, she seemed truly offended.

morm - I think he's more annoyed than truly suspicious, but that annoyance makes him disinclined to look at alternative explanations for things and so he finds things suspicious that maybe aren't. Says that Nerwen is backtracking, but no she isn't, she's explaining. She said the kill was predictable and then she explained why she thought that, no backtracking there.

sally (stan never caught on did it?) - now see, there is madness, many of the replies in her multi-quote post were odd as per usual, but there were fragments of sense in there and her list post was almost entirely substance. It worries me coming from her.

Rune - well, I guess he was honest about Agan's death, and I've certainly felt the same way about the deaths of certain players in the past. Says it's bad when people make long analysis posts but doesn't mention who those people are, which isn't really very helpful.

Shasta - really does not know how some of our players work. Deliberately setting someone up to die even if you're pretty sure they are innocent is not a new thing. The finality with which he made the statement seems odd to me. And this game is so often innocent vs innocent even when it's accidental!

Brinn - big long analysis post promised, big long post with lots of quotes and a tiny summary at the end gained. Hoping she offers something more in future.

Greenie - basically says 'lots of things to look at'. Will have to see if she actually did. Didn't look at the Eonwe voters, did look at Ilya. Made a list with some good points. And yet. I think it's the tone of her posts that gets me. morm doesn't like phantom's because they feel 'giddy', I don't like Greenie's because they feel smug - and I don't know how else to explain that.

Lommy - suspicious of everyone who actually reacted to Agan's death. I disagree with her on all accounts really - as I don't think it makes Boro or Nerwen look suspicious and I don't understand how Ilya overreacted. She did notice that inconsistency from Boro too. I'm not sure about Lommy toDay. She does seem to be blowing things out of proportion a little.

Nog - is just against phantom in general I think. I mean I completely agree that phantom's playing style drives you up the wall, although not me this game for some reason, so I get the frustration, but what I don't think Nog has are any actual reasons.

It seems like everyone just got a little bit overheated toDay, and if neither Boro nor phantom are wolves then the real wolves must be just loving it. Total distracted with probably very little effort on their parts!

Now, if I am wrong and one or the other of them is a wolf, by the look of things it would be Boro. If he isn't a wolf he's done a very fine job of making it look like he is!

Still, my actual suspects toDay are sally, Rune and Greenie. My vote will go to one of them in the next hour or so.

Interesting. I made a point to go out of my way for you, Green, answering question after question for you, as well as logically addressing every reason you believed you had to suspect me. For the most part you ignored me, in the sense that you did not post responses to most of my points, and a few times you even repeated points against me which I had already answered.

Oh well.
