phantom darling, you're one of those "suspicious until proven guilty/innocent" types. You're not demonstrably anything until you're dead and your role's come out.

Don't worry, we love you anyway.

[the phantom]

Wow, you sound like Fea. If I hadn't seen your name next to that I would've thought she was playing again.

No, sorry... I'm afraid I've just got entirely too familiar with familiar forms of address this summer--I blame the English novels--and somehow, online, everyone seems somewhat flirt-worthy.

It'd be an interesting game, though, wouldn't it, if I were to try and play ala Fea.

I couldn't do it--I'd break down about two posts into Day 2 and turn back into a pumpkin.

[the phantom]

I've got to run. I'll try my best to pop in from time to time, but I have a heavy task in front of me. I won't forget to vote of course. Cheers!

[Nienna]

And really just because I haven't had time to do this yet. The narration is ready to be analyzed.

[Nienna]

And Brinn is the biggest of all the people... not sure what that says if anything... just mentioning.

[Pitchwife]

OK, I've already staid awake much longer than I should. Time to vote.
I hate to vote a fellow newbie on Day 1, but for reasons given above, it's either alona and autume. Can't really make up my mind, but -
Oh, well.
++alonariel
for what Mac said. Sorry if I'm wrong.

And Rikae, please be indecisive some more. If you really are.

[Rikae]

Mac, hm, I can't really see the suspiciousness of that post. It looks like best-friends-with-Lari-ishness followed by a sort of placeholder vote - plus, alona won't be around to defend herself until later, as she said. Nah, on second thought, I'd better vote for someone else.

[Rikae]

Dury's points about Nessa are good, too, and make me more inclined to vote her (Nessa).

[Lariren Shadow]

I am off for a little, will hopefully be back before deadline(as in stealing a computer). I don't see where the Alona suspicion is coming from, but Mac's ideas seem innocent enough.

[Nienna]

I agree that Mac's vote for Alona seems fine while Pitchwife's seems a little desperate to join a bandwagon. I'm still trying to find out how he narrowed it down to Tum and Alona... but that worries me a bit.

I haven't 'narrowed it down' if you mean I have better reeson to suspect them than morm and sally. It's just that I think morm is more useful to keep around if innocent, and sally - I don't know, I'd just like to hear more of her. But I'm a lousy Day 1 voter anyway.
Of course, if I retract now, it'll look like I'm desperate to fend off the bandwagoning accusation. So what am I supposed to do?
Nevertheless, on further consideration...

++satansaloser2005
Third on the wagon, and hers definitely not a placeholder vote. There.

And that's it for now. Good night everybody. Hope to see most of you in the Morning.

Hah.

I was under the impression he only had fan-girls, and that they were pretty quiet or non-existant this game. I guess I was wrong.

It's way too hard to be 'productive' in this game.

++Nessa

Her posts #151, 154, and 159 are particularly unnerving. Maybe it's just that I disagree with her plain and simply, and that her personality rubs me the wrong way (which of course I kinda how I feel about Hakon... >_>). Basically she seems to be trying very hard to be agreeable and to discuss *something* and ends up commentating on the situation and making really weird generalizations about Day 1 and voting.

But one more musical number out of phantom and he's getting my vote the rest of the game.

[Boromir88]

Highlight your vote Durelin...I gotta be a stickler.

[Lariren Shadow]

Not sure what to think about whats been happening. Nienna is seeming slightly more innocent. But not much more than before.

Votes!

Rikae--> Rikae
Form--> Mira
Morm--> Hakon
Alona--> Hakon
Sally--> Hakon
Brinn--> Morm
Autume--> Hakon
--Rikae---Rikae
--Form---Mira
Shasta --> Pitchwife
Mac --> Alona
Durelin --> Nessa
Pitchwife --> Alona

So Hakon 4. Alona 2. Morm, Nessa, and, Pitchwife 1.

[Inziladun]

This is a lot of bloody posts for a Day 1. I suppose in a way that's good, but nearly the first two pages were posts of banter and backwards/upside down/unintelligible characters.

Rather than make lists of my impressions of eveyone, I'll zero in on what I find noteworthy at the moment.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I don't know about the Hakon bandwagon. He's acted oddly, sure. The piling on seems wrong though.

The push for Alon sure came out of nowhere. If you just don't want to hop on the Hakon train, there must be a better option somewhere.

I've pretty much agreed with tp, until he started the 'vote Fea if you can't think of anyone else' idea. I don't see that as helpful, at least not to innocents. Which leads me to....

Rikae. I'd already thought her argument with tp about his comments to the Bear overblown. She was initially against him regarding Fea.

We need to try and get the number of Night kills down asap, and we won't do that by lynching Fea.

But then:

All right. Swayed by tp: it's happened to many, no doubt. However.....

However, come to think of it, Brinn and Nienna are also rather suspicious for the Fea-voting talk - I would say Nienna more than Brinn, since she's more low-key about it, as if trying to avoid drawing attention to herself. Interesting that Boro found Brinn suspicious for this, but not Nienna.

Then she tries to make a case on Pitchwife.

So he's suspicious because he makes sense and doesn't cause controversy?

Oh. Well I'm a Libra myself, as it happens. I won't say this is written in stone at the moment, but unless some momentous event occurs:

[Rikae]

Inzil, before accusing me based on inconsistency re: voting for Fea, look again at the post where I advocate it and read as if you were reading Nerwen - or, more specifically, the part at the top.

[Rikae]

Also to Inzil: As for the wolfishness of not causing controversy, yeah, that's pretty well known wolf lore. Wolves don't care who is lynched, as long as none of their fellows are threatened - they just want to survive. Innocents should want to actually hunt down the wolves, and that means making some waves, not stating the obvious.

Trap 1. I thought tp had to be advocating the Fea lynch as a wolf-trap. The last line of his post especially made me think he was suggesting it as a safe vote so that wolves would incriminate themselves. I went along with that, but wanted him to know I wasn't serious, hence the "trap" bit. Nienna and Brinn looked like possible victims of the trap.

Pitchwife is really starting to look jumpy, while explaining that he knows he looks jumpy... heh. Methinks the laddie doth protest too much.

[Nienna]

Since Lari has departed:

Rikae--> Rikae
Form--> Mira
Morm--> Hakon
Alona--> Hakon
Sally--> Hakon
Brinn--> Morm
Autume--> Hakon
--Rikae---Rikae
--Form---Mira
Shasta --> Pitchwife
Mac --> Alona
Durelin --> Nessa
Pitchwife --> Alona
Zil --> Rikae


So Hakon 4. Alona 2. Rikae, Morm, Nessa, and, Pitchwife 1.
