WWLXII: Dead Men Do Tell Tales - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Nogrod, imagine the following scenario. You were still alive, and there is a ghosted bigshot player that offers what you are offering now. What would your words be for him?

I can't believe that wolf is really the only person around...

Because I enjoy playing this game, especially for its more extreme situations.

Thinlómien · 06-24-2009, 06:41 PM

You have this village lynch me after I've offered them a wolf on a silver plate I'm going to eat my head and your head too.

edit: xed with Mac

Thinlómien · 06-24-2009, 06:42 PM

Yes you enjoy trying to flush out the ranger / get one more Day / make me stay up until 7am while I have to wake up at 8.

Macalaure · 06-24-2009, 06:47 PM

I didn't tell you you have to stay up that late, and I would definitely counsel against it, but you won't listen... little sisters

My favourite alternatives would be:
You, Lommy,
Eonwe,
Gwath,
pretty much anybody else, I have to say, except Nerwen, since there are no other gifteds left.

Thinlómien · 06-24-2009, 06:51 PM

I said I'm only willing to consider Shasta.

Your case on Eönwë was useless. You know it. You didn't even have the guts to admit it.

What do we have in Gwath? Someone who will be modfired soon most likelily.

And me? You think I as a mutineer would stay all night to see a certain innocent lynched when there are so many to choose from? I'm not that crazy. I'd go now and let you lynch someone innocent or already dead. I would have gone hours ago, with lots of noise that you should lynch Mac and left it be.

Thinlómien · 06-24-2009, 07:00 PM

I'm going to sleep for an hour now but I'll be back then (some two hours before the deadline). Don't do anything stupid while I'm gone. Please.

I think the 'Downs "politically Correct sensor" would **** up with my words...

But really, I wrote a 4½ pages of football commentary this evening / night for Arda Soccer tournament and will go to bed about immediately the time being 4.30AM here right now.

I have missed 1½ Days already totally and only skim-read this toDay (and yesterDay I was also just eyeing it) so sadly I have nothing very constructive to offer right now. If I get the inspiration, I will read this through tomorrow (eg. during the Night-phase) and will get into the thick of this on the next Day.

Not needing to be afraid for your life when it's already taken kind of lowers the motivation... and then needing to catch up a few Days of posting kind of raises the bar of getting involved even higher. But even if this game is just silly I wouldn't like to see myself as a quitter so let me promise I'll be back...

I have to agree with this. It is weird. It could be honest or it could be twisted. But it is spectacular anyway! What would this game be without it?

But don't lynch Gwath! He is always lynched because he looks so darn suspicious everytime - and he mostly turns out innocent. And this time he is a) facing a modfire - or at least the threat of it, and b) the mutineers' decisions would make him look more good than evil.

And don't give me any more of that "let's lynch the one facing a modfire" -stuff. We need genuine lynches with the mutineers on the menu as well...

Shastanis Althreduin · 06-24-2009, 07:41 PM

No. No, no, no. Eonwe siding with Lommy makes me positive that Lommy is a mutineer and Eonwe either a fellow or a co-conspirator (more likely).

I did that, until I suddenly had 3 stupid votes on me. After looking at Eonwe I intended to look at Lommy, but that proved unnecessary since she's entirely evil in my mind by now.

Shastanis Althreduin · 06-24-2009, 07:51 PM

For what it's worth, I believe you, Mac.

Isabellkya · 06-24-2009, 07:58 PM

I am the Ranger.
And here is why...

[enter Big long post pointing out every single clue, and reasons why I am the Ranger]

*giggles*

Sorry, could not help myself.
I'm not the Ranger. Nor any Gifted. Nor Cobblie, nor Mutie.

The only "stupid" votes on you Mac - are Nerwen's and Eonwe's.

Lommy has become a Zealot. I think you are both Mutie's.

X'd with Mac.

Macalaure · 06-24-2009, 08:02 PM

Izzy, if you think that we are both mutineers, then why don't you retract your vote to her? It has to be the same for you, and if today turns out into a race between me and her, there's nothing to be lost from your perspective.

I don't think Eonwe's vote was stupid, just predictable...

Isabellkya · 06-24-2009, 08:02 PM

Only one person can deliver Mutineers on a silver platter.

X'd with Mac.

Boromir88 · 06-24-2009, 08:22 PM

You may have to defend yourself some more Mac, because I'm just going to go through your posts today, and look at what you said. Don't know what I will find, but just saying...

Quote:

Kath seemed to make most sense (least nonsense?), but I had a very bad feeling.~774

Very bad? That's kind of a wierd statement...if you're the Ranger, what caused the "very bad" feeling about Kath's lynching? Maybe we are running out of time, but if you are the Ranger, you should not be worried about mistakingly lynching a giftedm and if you had any suspicion on her...why the "very bad" feeling?

Quote:

My gut feeling says McCaber, Wilwa, and Kath are probably innocent~784

But didn't you vote for Kath and then retract? You had to be suspicious of her, why would that previous suspicion by voting for her suddenly make you believe today she is probably innocent?

Quote:

Lommy's boldness today gives me a bad feeling about our numbers. This is the way wolves start to behave when they're one wrong lynch away from sweeping a village.~824

Hmm...not sure I agree, but this really isn't a point as to whether you are the Ranger or not. I'm just saying, that Lommy's aggressiveness after you is something I have never seen from her. So I have no idea whether she is innocent, or wolf...what I do know is she is more confident you are a wolf than I have ever seen. But why would that reveal anything about mutineer numbers?

Quote:

Mith, please consider carefully - another vote for me would pretty much seal my fate, and we're very probably at most 2 wrong lynches away from defeat. If you're not sure - there are other options, and you can still lynch me tomorrow if you want to. What is your opinion of Eonwe, for example?~849

The 1st part looks pretty innocent...at least if you're the Ranger, because you're telling someone else to consider their vote or your fate is seal. But the second part...if we're at most 2 wrong lynches away, and you're the Ranger, what good would lynching you tomorrow do us?

I probably should just say, if anyone's up I probably cross-posted.

Edit: Oh and all quotes are from Mac

Macalaure · 06-24-2009, 07:55 PM

1 for Gwath and 1 for Lommy. Gwath would indeed not be the best of things, since he has to be modfired eventually. Lynching Lommy would be my preference, since she's most evil, but since she's around and in a fury, it will probably be most difficult.

You have no idea how good that feels, after all that defending today.

Inziladun · 06-24-2009, 08:07 PM

It really is interesting looking at this from the other side, with the pressure to vote gone.

After all this toDay though, it's a shame I can't have more of an impact.
Mac I'd been suspecting for a while, but I wonder now if some of it wasn't due to the Force of Lommy. You may be right, Lommy, but honestly the fanaticism is a bit unnerving.
And Mith! Despite the fact that we apparently do have more cobblers than anything this game

, I have to question her now. I simply don't buy that Gwath was the best she could come up with.
All down to Izzy now? This should be good!

Macalaure · 06-24-2009, 08:14 PM

What Shasta said.

You think we are both wolves, so which one of us dies shouldn't matter to you. If Lommy isn't a wolf, she's an ordo, if I'm not a wolf, I'm the ranger. That makes Lommy a better choice.

But regardless, if we're not both wolves, which scenario do you think is more likely: that only I'm a wolf, or that only she's a wolf. That's what you should consider.

Thinlómien · 06-24-2009, 09:02 PM

Lo, Mac is able to"talk himself into the bag" (like you'd say in Finnish) even without my help.
