R.I.P. Hunters–

Firstly, I'd like to say– well done, Hakon!

And too bad, Mac– but I don't blame you for thinking Inzi was a wolf. I was all ready to make a case on him toDay myself.

And now, my thoughts on the Rune situation.

Generally I find smart wolves try not to change their usual playing style too much (unless they're pretending to be another role, like the cobbler). It's a bit of a giveaway.

Technically you're likely both right– that is, I doubt every single one of the villains would take the risk of openly supporting him. On the other hand, a were-captain would be such a help to the wolves that I can see them pushing for it pretty hard. And of course, with hindsight Rune's plan was evidently "hiding in plain view"... so it could be the wolves are deliberately trying to act atypically.

We'll know what Boro is toNight, which should help clarify things a bit.

What about the Night Guard votes? Did we ever get a Word-of-Mod on whether wolves are neutralised if they become Night Guards?

EDIT:X'd since Roa.

Gah...so I just got a small job that requires me to be up no later than 7am, so what little time I had is even less.

I admit I've not thoroughly read all of Day One; five pages is really a lot to catch up on. But I think I have the jist on what's happened. I don't understand how Rune managed to be elected captain yesterDay; if I were there I'd never let anyone who's begging for a role have it. Part of that is because I don't like letting people have their way. But also I don't care if what Rune did is typical for his behaviour; his campaign to get himself elected as captain just looked plain wolfish. True that surely a wolf or two did not vote him as captain to make them look better, but I'm sure at least one wolf did. Due to lack of time, I really won't be able to seek out strong suspicions, but I think the best place for me to start is by looking at the ones who did vote Rune for captain.

I could wait to vote until morning, but I worry I'll run out of time and not be able to so I'll probably just do it tonight...and soon. Again, I apologise for my poor participation (I'm thinking now I probably shouldn't have joined, but apparently I have this addiction problem ), but I will be around a lot more toMorrow as it will be the weekend.

Hmm...Rune had five votes. Of those voters, one was himself, one is dead, and one has dropped out. Which leaves Loslote and Valier. Loslote has done a few suspicious things, but I'm hesitant to be quick to vote her since she is new and I do not yet know her style. She is making a decent effort so I think I'd like to give her the benefit of the doubt for toDay at least. And I'm not sure Val and Rune would interacted in the way they did if they were both wolves. It seems too obvious for them to do something like that, though I suppose anything is possible. So there goes my voting plan out the window...

So looking elsewhere... the only thing that did strike me toDay was Nerwen's latest post (right before my last post). The first few lines come off as unsincere and it rubs me the wrong way. Looking back at her posts from yesterDay, they rub me in the same way. Just bad vibes, really. Going solely off of vibes is a horrible way to vote, I know, especially when I haven't had the chance to look at most other players. But I'm out of time and really must be heading to bed so I can actually get some sleep.

++Lynch Nerwen

++Roa for Captain

Because I don't find her suspicious and her dedication has proven that she would do well in such a role.

++Kath for NG

Since she is quiet and has a tendency to get killed early.

If I have time, I may check in come morning, though no guarantees.

*passes out*
