I'll give an example and answer it: What, based on the role you have (publicly) in the town, would you have been doing last night that would make it impossible for you to be a werewolf?

I hope you don't presume the wolves among us would be honest?

However, I would have been on the wharf tending one of my nets until ten or thereabouts. Then, I'd have gone to my house and had a couple of knocks from the bootleg scotch I picked up you know where. And I'd go to bed.

This was my post before rolls were assigned. McCaber shortened the roles to put them in the list. He put the innocent in quotes so that people wouldn't think that he was giving a role.

I do not appreciate being voted for based on these terrible reasons... and on being 'nice'. I don't mind if people actually legitimately finding me suspicious and then voting for me... that is the game... I understand as long as there are reasons.

Craydon (can I start calling you Crayon? Please? That is what I read every time I see your name... hehe) seems like the only person suggesting something interesting though I don't believe it will produce any wolves.

Actually I voted for you mostly because from the story you were the only one not reallyy in the village until the funeral which I Do find suspicious

Also your reaction of running away

and the quotes thing was more of a joke.

But Day 1s are sooo useful on Day 2s, therefore we should all help ourselves out and post anyway, even if we have nothing to say or add. Just so that toMorrow we'll have something on everyone!

See, I just posted something that didn't really contain anything overly new/useful, but now tomorrow someone will have something to analyse regarding me.

Like what? You've once again said nothing except "yeah, post more, people".

Morsul, the narrations don't contain clues to anyone's guilt. At least, they're not supposed to, anyway. (Right, Wilwa?)

Oh... mods don't typically put clues in the narration. That is a worse reason to be voting me...

[Morsul the Dark]

But then the first vote IS entirely random? I mean I think it's more fun to play detectie with the story... Oh well The vote is cast whether for right reasons or not.

Though it may simply be you're shocked you were so quickly found out that you protest so, hmm?

I wouldn't say it's completely random on Day 1. One can get a feel for some people one way or the other. But later there is more to go on when you have one's voting record at your disposal.

[Hakon]

++Inziladun

He has a track record as being a wolf and he has gotten past my radar every time. I am not taking the risk of letting him live.

Also on a side note, I think SPM is a wolf. There is no way he is an ordinary innocent. I mean he is back now after being gone for years, it makes perfect sense to give him some kind of non ordinary innocent role so he can show off his apparently awesome skills at werewolf.

It's not meant to be random. You're supposed to vote based on people saying suspicious things, and circumstances– e.g. someone's relations with a known wolf- though of course that has to wait for later.

There's often not much to vote for on Day One, though. All I'm saying is that you can't go by the narration.

EDIT:X'd since Morsul.

If they put clues in the narration then the village wouldn't have much to do and it would mostly be the Mod...

I protest being voted for bad reasons is all.

Edit: x-ed with a host

Yes, and it's not as though honest citizens can actually prove their alibis. I, as I said, was in the the bosom of my dear family– but as you know so many of them are unable to appear in public, and thus can hardly be witnesses to my innocence.

Of course not. However, the way they respond would help somewhat. A wolf would have a different mentality approaching the question than an ordo. An ordo would usually imagine what their role would do (and probably have a bit of fun with it) whereas a wolf would try to distract the reader with, well, distracting things.

Edit: xed with Morsul, Nienna, and Inzil.

[Loslote]

Inzil - I'm not entirely comfortable with him, but nothing that I can really base a suspicion on.

Pitchie - same as Inzil, only his posts worry me more. He seemed to be jokingly trying to get on everyone's good side...but it might just be Day 1 behavior.

Hakon - hasn't been on much, and he voted for someone he 'didn't want to let live.' Interesting...and not in a particularly comforting way.

wilwa - gave good advice (state your suspicions), but didn't follow it.

Nogrod - rubs me the wrong way, but...no concrete evidence.

SPAM - potentially one of my top suspects, after Pitchie. However, there's no real reason. I just think he's probably for a wolf...though Hakon's post saying that he also suspected SPAM made me quite suspicious of Hakon, so...talk about inconclusive...

Roa - hasn't shown up, and Crayon says she might not.
Crayon (awesome nickname) - was the only one so far to give an interesting suggestion. He may still be a wolf, but I'm not overly suspicious of him right now.

Ni - I saw nothing either way - no obvious wolfishness or unwolfishness.

Nerwen - did come on, but did not post anything that stood out.

Legate - posted nice-sounding nothings.

Greenie - seemed over-eager to be helpful and far too enthusiastic for my liking.

Morsul - he's either a newbie making normal mistakes, or a wolf hiding behind a newbie mask.

Kitanna - I don't think she's been on.

Lairen - I didn't see anything outstanding.

Brinn - I don't think she's been on, either.

So far, my top two are SPAM and Pitchie. I'll probably vote for Pitchie, because I won't be able to get on again before deadline.

[Kitanna]

Ok, sorry, just got home from work. I'll be on now for a little over an hour reading and commenting. Whatever I don't get to before I go to bed I will finish when I wake up (roughly four hours before DL). So for now I'm off to read what I've missed.

[Loslote]

Okay, I won't be on again before deadline, so I'll have to vote early. Sorry.

++ Pitchie

[Craydon1]

I also have to vote early. It's also acceptable to call me Crayon if it makes you happy

++ Inzil

Oh it does

[Roa_Aoife]

Alright, I'm here briefly. I'll have to sleep soon. A few things:

Morsul and Hakon: Roles are handed out randomly. The mod doesn't choose who each person is. So thinking of who McCaber would pick will get you no where. Also, no clues in the narration- it would be bad form.

Next: Blah, blah, blah day 1's are useless, no they're not, let's kill/ not kill the quiet people. Let's move beyond the basics. That debate will only have us going in circles and not finding wolves. People who have been perpetuating that discussion are automatically more suspicious to me than not.

12 hours in- someone must have something to suspect about someone. Right now Wilwa is striking me as suspicious. I need to read through again and take a closer look. It may just be a feeling.

[Roa_Aoife]

Crayon *heehee* and Loslote: why?
