I did not say that I would not make a discussion but that I could not make a discussion at the time. I had plans that I was off to complete but thought I should post first just to let people know that I was around and playing. I figured that that was a function first post but I guess that I was wrong. I did not have anything substantial to say so I didn't pretend that I did just to seem to make a discussion. It seems that on Day One many people post a lot of stuff without really saying anything. I was trying to avoid doing that.

My goal in this game is not to just hang around. I really do want to make a difference. I was just hanging around before because there was nothing else to do. If I really thought that I had something substantial to contribute I wouldn't hold back just because I thought it was funny. I would post to let people know what I think.

Right now I think that I'm being a bit defensive and I'm sorry. I do not want to seem like I'm not contributing and I don't want to be lynched just because I'm not saying lots of nothing. I'm perfectly capable of saying a lot without really saying anything (I am a college student after all) but I thought that that would be a waste of everyone's time.

Anyway... I am in dreadful need of sleep but I will be around for at least a part of the end of the day. It is my Sunday and I need to catch up on school work but I will do my best.

Edit: x-ed with Sally

[Brinniel]

Nogrod should probably just vote me now because I can promise that toDay my participation will be to a minimum...

I never have much to say on Day 1, and when I do it's usually at the very end of the Day. Which isn't very helpful since I won't be around in the last few hours; I won't even be around for the last 12 hours. My apologies, but RL is keeping me busy. Anyway, that means it's gonna be a random vote from me toDay. I don't know how I can possibly feel one way or another towards someone so early into the first Day. My first impressions are always off...

I'll lurk around for another hour or so and see if I can get any sort of hunches that could lead to a vote aside from randomness, but then it's off to bed. I would save my vote for morning...but I must be up early and can't be late like I usually am when I play WW.

[Brinniel]

Aand no one's posted. Typical.

I won't vote Lhuna or Groin since they haven't played in awhile.

I won't vote Nogrod because I feel bad I keep killing him and I won't vote Legate because he seems to die in the first Days and Nights a lot lately and I won't vote Nienna because she got axed Day 1 last game.

Everyone else shall be victim to my randomness. Crap, I really hate doing this but I suppose it's better than no vote at all. Either way someone's gonna hate me for it.

Hmmm....

++Sally

Meh, she won't mind too much (err...or at least I hope not).

Yeah, I'm sure now if I don't get lynched, I'll probably be eaten as a no trail kill. Serves me right. While I can't promise tons of posts during this game, I'll certainly do everything I can to do better than toDay should I survive.

Anyway, I can't hold off any longer; I'm only getting 4 1/2 hours of sleep as it is. I might be able to pop in briefly once I wake, but I can't be sure.

[Kath]

Oy. *pokes Nog* I said my morrow not the game's morrow. Keep your hair on and keep an eye out for capitalisation! For once I've actually worked out when Day 1 is and have appeared well in time for it, give me some credit. I will be around toDay though nearer the deadline than now ... although if someone could mention when the deadline is for BST that would be much appreciated!

[wilwarin538]

Alrighty, I'm afraid I won't be able to make it back on later as I promised. I feel quite terrible about that, I was hoping that I could have a really productive Day 1 in this game. My Day 2, if I make it, will be far better I'm sure.

So I have to vote now. I won't vote for anyone who hasn't posted, anyone who is new, anyone who has only posted little ones like myself (don't want to be hypocritical), or anyone who has already gotten a vote (don't want to start a chain or anything) . So I believe that leaves (and doing this off by memory to save the little time I have): Legate, Rune and Eomer. Rune, I have to admit that I love him, haven't played with him in a very long time, so I don't want to vote for him. So between Eomer and Legate, I shall toss a coin. Heads Legate, Tails Eomer.

++Eomer

Sorry! Process of elimination really and then some randomness, I'd just much rather vote then not vote at all. Hopefully my logic is good enough for you guys to keep me around.

Good luck everyone! I hope to be able to be much more useful the next Day.

1. That's reasonable.
2. That's not.
3. That's really not.
4. Nor's that.

Sorry Wilwa, but there's no sense in your criteria.

[Eomer of the Rohirrim]

Kath - Probably up to no good but no proof yet.

Nienna - Not treading on many toes yet. Sneaky.

Kent2010 - Looks like a sly one.

Legate of Amon Lanc - Gives an air of false nobility. Probably a villain.

Nogrod - Hmm, a curious one. Too easy to dismiss him as a candidate for being "too" aggressive.

Shastanis Althreduin - Seems ok I suppose.

Isabellkya - I think she's a clever one.

wilwarin538 - Don't like her vote, and not just because it's for me.

Nerwen - Another clever one.

Nilpaurion Felagund - Inclined to leave him alive (though unconvinced he deserves it).

Rune Son of Bjarne - Seems ok so far.

Lhunardawen - Seems a bit sneaky.

Groin Redbeard - n/a

satansaloser2005 - Probably up to no good but no proof yet. Just like Kath.

Eönwë - n/a

Brinniel - Probably one to kill.

Uhm, I thought there was some sense actually. If I voted for someone who has barely posted everyone would be like "wow, hypocrite, you haven't posted much either", and too often has someone gotten trouble later on for copying someone elses vote, so I was not going to vote as someone else did. And rarely does anyone ever vote for someone who a) has never played or b) they've never played with, on a Day 1.

Votes are practically always random on Day 1, there's no way to avoid it, I just tried to put as much reason into it as possible before making my random choice.

Just popped in to see quickly before work, thought I'd put my immediate thoughts down.

Funny because I think Nogrod seems more agressive than normally. . .He says the same as usual, but the way he say it seems more agressive.

Rune has picked up on this behavior, and for now I think he'll be allowed to stay, if only because he's very astute and I think he can bring order to this mess.

I doubt I can bring order to anything, infact I am often described as a mess my self.

[Shastanis Althreduin]

I've got to vote; I'm not sure I'll be on at all later and I'm a bit impaired right now; too much rum, you see.

++Nogrod

Fire!

Much more participation from me in following days if I live, everyone. Sorry!

[satansaloser2005]

I'm rather concerned about the way Nog is approaching toDay. I realize that quiet people are easily forgotten but to target them on Day One, when there's not a whole lot to be said anyway, and people are busy, seems less like prevention and more like stirring up trouble.


Brinn, no worries. If you find me suspicious, you find me suspicious. However I'd ask you to consider some other people toMorrow, as there are baddies to catch and I wouldn't want you to waste your time on me. No hard feelings though, of course. I hope you're able to participate more toMorrow though.


Rune, if I was to choose between you and Nog, I'd choose you. You may be mad but you're doing a lot better at making me not want to lynch you than he is right now. I'll not be swearing my allegiance though, since I'm not any more a fan of you....type....than I am of Cap'n Nog's.


Shasta, I rest my case, you filthy scum.


Where could a girl find more civilized company? (And where's Nilp with my refreshing beverage? I need him to help me through this trying ordeal. Perhaps I should go look for him....)

[Legate of Amon Lanc]

Right, I am here, and have read all, it seems most of the people have shown and even contributed, at least to some point. So, here is now a short list of what I think of the situation this far. Already some thoughts are beginning to crystallize (shoton, as people say in my homeland), so I hope by the end of the Day I should have enough to come up with at least partially clear picture.

Kath - so far little input. Kath already makes me feel uncomfortable, as always, and I can't read her. As always.
Nienna - despite the first sort of exchange with Nog, I am inclined now to see her behavior as genuine, and not as a particular intention to fly under the radar. Thus, hope to see her posting more in the future: like I said, this far, the picture seems genuine.
Kent2010 - he did not say practically anything this far. I don't know whether I should take the "let's make a deal" as anything worth considering: actually, I thought that it is a mere in-role talk and thus did not give it any in-game value. Well, though of course, I don't know him, so it may be possible that he would try to win people's favour in this way, "buddying" with them. But anyway, I would need to see more from him to be able to judge anything.
Nogrod - Nogrod is being his normal quiet-people-chasing self, and seemingly something has happened in recent games that made him pursue this habit even more forcefully. Let me say in this place that I agree with him, but this far it seems that hopefully people will post. Nogrod himself does not particularly raise my suspicion: if something happened to him, he's perhaps a bit more of a zealot?
Shastanis Althreduin - posted a bit and even voted, but just a little; so I can only hope that there will be this more participation that he promised in the future.
Isabellkya - stating obvious and dismissing Day 1, well that's quite simple and everybody could do that: I would like to see more.
wilwarin538 - the first impression is somewhat positive, I think she is trying to make some input, I only once again hope that there will be more in the future. It is yet quite some time till the end of Day 1, so let's see...
Nerwen - well hey, I would like some more out-role input...
Nilpaurion Felagund - not have been around yet
Rune Son of Bjarne - he actually reminds me of the typical Rune who weighs arguments of everybody... so he makes me feel him as rather innocent.
Lhunardawen - I guess my dear wife should learn her place, but now I would like to see more than one-(or few-)liner input from her.
Eomer of the Rohirrim - well that is one I cannot quite relate with, okay, he has this "offensive" mask, but overall, I am not quite sure what he's up to. Unclear, I'd say: sort of casting suspicion, or something, or rousing feelings, in a bit unclear way. So is there anything he is okay with, except for hating everybody, or what part of it is actually just roleplaying? Or what part could be casting wraith-y nets with hiding behind roleplaying? (By the way, I think people should slowly quit roleplaying after second, third post they make anyway. Or at least try to not mix the reality with roleplaying to the point that it is unclear.)
Groin Redbeard - not around yet
satansaloser2005 - this far, she's being more or less like her usual self, though it seems to me a bit defensive with her reaction to Brinn's vote, which was, like Brinn said, random. Well, whatever - let's see what comes in the future.
Eönwë - not around yet
Brinniel - all right, seems that she is now mostly busy with RL stuff, so I'm leaving her out for now, hope to see her around more in the future!

Okay, actually, all in all, for Day 1, it is quite good. Might have been worse. I am probably going to leave in a short while, but I will be around perhaps for a minute or two yet. Anyway, I shall be back in the evening (several hours before DL), so then. Hope that by that time, people who haven't posted yet will post, and those who posted will post more so that the picture of the may become clearer to me. So, till later...

Absolutely not, it'd be duller without. I say Lommy wants this game to be remembered and what better way than by impressing our 'strongly-drawn characters'.

So, now, let's see, kill all humans, yes, well...

I think we, as a group, can perhaps make this Nogrod go crazy. Let's encourage this healthy suspicion. Did you know he's been thieving Lhuna's coins?

And pilfering Sally's pockets?

I wouldn't cry if we strung him up.

[Eönwë]

*bangs on large chamber doors and is finally let in*

I'm sorry about coming into this discussion so late, but it appears my chamber was locked with me inside, (my computer was acting funny) and I had to break down the door. A great shame that is, because I fear it will not be replaced now that Lomiel, our dear hostess, is deceased.


Late I am, but the fact is, I see I didn't miss much of the discussion toDay. Two pages isn't much for one Day.


Now let me look over the events of the past Day...
