Exactly my words... but who's to throw the second stone? (Those votes in are the safest there are, remember that later)

Okay, I'll take a look back and vote in - hopefully - a half an hour (it's getting early already in here).

And where's everyone when decisions should be made?

Oh you cowards! I wouldn't sign anyone of you to my ship if I ever had one!

More innocent than guilty:

Rikae - very Rikae-ish so far, hard to explain
Lommy - I usually have a good read on her, and so far I like what I see
Inziladun
Boro - same opinion on Nogrod as me, which doesn't mean much, but is enough to put him on this list for toDay
Eomer
Kath
Lil' Green
Eonwe


Clueless:

Sally
Wilwa
Annu
Nerwen
- I don't pretend anymore that I could ever get a clue about her
Gwath - he's contributing? On Day 1?
Mirandir
Izzy
Mith



More guilty than innocent:

Nogrod - see above
Shasta - don't like his vote
McCaber

Wha's this? Nogrod is suspectin' Mac because I made a joke nobody understood, Mac suspectin' Nog because of that... ye gods.

It be déjà vu all over again, scalliwags.

I suggest that we lynch one o' them scurvy dogs that be not contributin' instead o' th' loudmouths like Nogrod here. Yarr, he might be mutinous, an' he might not, but he's more likely to slip up, wi' all th' tongue-waggin' he's wont t' do.

Hah, exactly.

But where is everyone?

From my list I suspect the most Mith and Eomer (and outside of it Boro and... surprise: Mac!), but those I would leave to the baddies to confirm us as non-baddies with their death and thence being able to be helpful.

I need to check the other low-posters as well it seems...

Thank's Mac, once again. Don't you ever learn?

You just ripped me off for new choices as I think I need to cast another as well. So great timing f(r)iend!

Okay, I'll send my post I was making first and come back to this then...

Well, I be not understandin' all this German malarkey (is malarkey a pirate-ish word? I'm not entirely sure) but I's being serious earlier about them scurvy dogs Nog and Boro. But this....

Then again, we best not be worrying about cobblers at this point, or else we all be sleeping with the fishes (now I'm a pirate who's in the mob?) before too long. So I be putting them two under my wood pile for a bit, at least I think.


I also be noticing this by our Little Green Alcoholic.

I be gettin' a bit of funny feelings from that there Shasta too, but I don't think it be a hunch worth following with a lynch.



The sands in me hour glass tell me it be nearly Nightfall, so I best stop flapping me lips and get to voting. Here be my feeling on all ye people. Avast!


-Legless Sally Dawkins ~ Carpenter
Arrrr, that be me, mateys. I be chopping wood but not chopping off the cap'n's head. Be ye all warned, for I won't be helpin' ya if ye kill me.

-Puffy Shirt Rikae ~ Cabin Boy
Seems decent enough, at least as much as a cabin boy can wearing a shirt like that.

-Pirate Lommy the Infected ~ Quartermaster
Strangely aggressive, or at least seems so to me. Bad luck having a woman on board anyway, especially an infected one.

-Gangrenous Inziladun Jones ~ Pilot
Another infected crewmember. Also getting a bad vibe from this'un, but not as much.

-Pirate Boromir the Malformed ~ Gunner
Possibly one of our co-conspirators, but I can build me a sturdy box around th' guns and he'll be harmless.

-Stutterin’ Wilwa Scab ~ Cook
Has she even been here?

-Shark Tooth Shasta ~ First mate
Power-hungry son of a sea w(hor[s]e)

-High-Pitched Annu ~ Surgeon
He be trying to help me with me legs, but it could just to get me on his side, so I be keeping an eye on him.

-Whinin’ Eomer Bonny ~ Musician (Pur-loined Violin)
Nothing to say about this laddie.

-Snifflin’ Mac Sparrow ~ Cooper
A bit of a weird blighter. May be evil, but after all the talk of his not-confession toDay I'll cut him a break because we need to be concentrating on more than just one o' us.

-Almost-Blind Nerwen ~ Navigator/Sea Artist
Don't think she'd have the vision (literally and figuratively) to cut off Capn' Black Death Brinn's head.

-Lil' Green the Staggering Drunk ~ Powder Monkey
Staggering drunk and perhaps a bit of a landlubber, but leaving her for now.

-Poop Deck Kath ~ Musician (Pipe)
Strange smell coming from this one, but then again....look at her title.

-Cowerin' Gwath Slasher ~ Powder Monkey
Gwathie-powder monkey. Nothing on him, except that I like to rib him.

-Pirate Nogrod the Fashionably Late ~ Gunner
Fashionably late, so I don't think he was up cutting up the cap'n. Maybe trying to lead a mutiny though, so keep your eye(s) on him.

-Slippery McCabbie Dagger ~ Boatswain
Slippery indeed, but evil? Not sure, me hearties.

-Dancin' Mira Blythe ~ Striker
Nothing.

-Ham-Hands Izzy ~ Striker
See Mira.

-Short Ruth Mithril ~ Cook
She best be not poisoning our grub, for right now I think she be innocent.

-Stinkin' Eön Bloodbeard ~ Powder Monkey
Steve, the stinking ingrate. I think he's okay for now.


(Posting this now, sorry for having such a long post right before DL. I'll check the vote count and be back in a second.)


ETA: I forgot to put in my thoughts about Mac, or they were deleted or something. Sorry for the confusion, but they're back in now.

Right. Thar's still not much t' go on, to my way o' thinkin'. I be goin' t' th' bunk right soon, so's a vote has t' come now.
McCaber popped in at th' day's dawnin' n' right away condemned ol' Shasta fer bein' the second in command n' standin' ta' benefit th' most from the poor Cap'n's head bein' detached. He's not been seen since to offer anythin' more.
A thin case may be, but thin's all I see t' work w' now.

Sally, Boro, Annu, Nerwen, Gwath, Nogrod, Caber, Mira, Izzy, and Mith, 10 people, are still left to vote, yet less than 10 posts in the last half hour, and less than one more half hour left.

Last minute frenzy of barely explained votes, or half a ship of non-voters - which is it going to be?

I might call you a hypocrit but I won't... If you're a baddie your timing is perfect and your "moral highground" as good as Mr. W's... But as I don't know I will restrain myself from that verdict.

Oh my. It's fifteen to the deadline (isn't it?). So I seem to be stuck on this to the bloody end.

McCaber is the easy one to pick and possibly a good one to try (he's not too helpful), but is it too easy to have chances of succeeding?

wilwa I'm afraid we get wrong even if I hate the way she posted (double confirming the randomness of her vote).

I might go for Mith or Eomer but somehow dislike the idea. Let it just be known I have bad feelings about them (I have such a lot of things to do I'm probably not going to hang around too much after I'm dead).

Wilwa made her inability to be here today known in ad'ance, doesn't mean she is innocent, but fo' that me belie'e she be awarded another day.

An' granted me thinks the last two times me defended McCaber he turned out baddie, but his randomness, an' light activity that re'eals nothin' does not make him look wol'ish. It's when he be makin' an attempt to be more acti'e an' post more when ye need to watch him closely.

Edit: I be crossin' with Nog and Mac an' I will prolly be goin' in an' out of pirate talk as the deadline approaches, my apologies Cap'n

Here would be the easy-going ones... (numbers being the number of posts - and Izzy has not posted but I'd give her the benefit of doubt at least now as it's possible she doesn't just know the game is on)

Mithalwen 2
Annunfuiniel 2
Eomer of the Rohirrim 2
wilwarin538 2
Mirandir 1
McCaber 1
satansaloser2005 1

I hate it everytime someone who would actually play gets lynched and those not interested (or ready to make an effort) get by Day1's.

Mith seemed to be in a rush even if I felt some bad vibes with her from a long time.

Annu is new to the game if veteran to the 'Downs and I'd give her my benefit of doubt as well.

Eomer has been just downright calculating and should be hanged for that - and for his general "get away from Day1 problems by just not posting" -attitude. But I'm also knowledgeable that he can be of help later - even if we really should lynch him a couple of times just to force him to play also on Day1 - and we could start on this Day...

wilwa... well, not too good either. Underlining that her vote was random, completely random even - and saying she'd be better on Day2! What better way for a baddie to skip the scrutiny and the chance of getting lynched on Day1 which is - to be sure - the saddest result for a baddie in a team.

Mira has one post worth nothing. Out for a "few hours" eight hours ago? Okay, that might be for real as she would probably not have said that were she a wolf trying to avoid attention and then break her promise in that obvious way (so a bored ordo who doesn't give the heck to this?).

McCaber sent the first post of the Day and never returned... Suspicious but maybe even too obvious? Anyway I don't like it.

Sally made one as well. Just as crazy as she is. I may feel a bit more relaxed with her than with some others as she actually seemed to be in a hurry.
