Doesn't fit the narration, however, where it seems she was killed by an unidentified figure after Eomer's own death... so probably not.
Your deceased Captain wishes you to know that her narrations, apart from being outstanding gems of the literary art, are also highly informative.

In other words, if Morphisaloser2005 and Eomer of the Bounty Hunters had killed one another in the standard way, I'd have said so.

There isn't ever a guarantee that someone will explain one of their actions before the DL. I needed to vote, and she did a scummy slip up. So I didn't particularly see a need to wait for her to explain. Had I waited, her explanation that she gave still would've had me voting for her.

Oh I agree. I'm sure there was at least one morph on the BG train.
I never suggested ignoring it, or blaming it on BG. The way you posted about it - came off as very opportunistic. 'I'm not sure how I would've responded... BUT everyone who did vote for her "jumped on her blunder like wolves on a tasty bit of lynch-meat, without even considering the possibility that she'd just made a noobish mistake."'.

How can you honestly say that no one considered alternate possibilities? I was under the impression that people were capable of thinking in their heads. I also don't think this is twitter - where we need to record every thought/action we ever do. xD

The only other possibility that I thought really - was that she could've been the seer; false saying Loslote was innocent, then voting her. To draw attention towards her vote.... since they can't reveal. However I ruled her out as too new to pull off something like that... especially with less than five posts in between.


Again. I did not vote BG because of previous game behavior. K. Thanks. I've seen this said more than once - that I voted for her because of last game. This is the second (going to be third) time I think I even said it - I did not vote her because of previous game behavior.

If there is a WereBear thing out there... then you can't entirely rule people out because together as morphs they don't make sense. But.. bear/wolf.. different teams.


X'd with Dun.

Yes. At that point, the only reason I could see for Noia to say that would be a Seer-Noia hinting, and given that, it bothers me that you immediately drew attention to it, something an innocent shouldn't do.

Seeing that Eomer looked to me like the one dropping Seer hints, the thought that Para could have been doing so never crossed my mind.

And you drew attention to those, too.

Bah, do I want to even bother trying to catch up to Lottie's post count?

True enough. But who could possibly have missed them?

Well I had been planning to vote for BG, cause her vote did look suspicious, but then she explained, I understood and had no back up and like 20 minutes to choose someone. Sally also had a weird vote, and I wouldn't have voted for her if I had had anyone else to vote for, but I was not going to jump on a bandwaggon that I didn't agree with. My point is that, yeah we didn't know the roles at the time, but I still had the best vote! And that's really frustrating, cause I think the BG voters should be looking way worse, since the girl was clearly just confused and her explanation made sense, but a bunch of people were jumping on her without really taking the time to try and understand what she was saying, it was a bad bandwaggon, and it sucks that me being a part of it may have actually made me look better than me voting a wolf!

K. I'm done for real this time. My Day 1 votes just always come back to bite me no matter what, and it's driving me nuts.



I hadn't thought of modfire for Mira's death, I guess that does make the most sense.

I'm going to go back and re-read the last page from Day 1, cause to me people who voted BG look bad and I want to see which of them looks worse. Then maybe I'll make a list.

Oh dear Pitch. You are quite funny.

Apparently, I am failing to see what you saw Wilwa. I know that BG copied Loslote's list; and rearranged the order. Hence why the exclamation point would be there.. she copied it. Yet in Loslote's list, she had herself under 'most innocent'. BG moved her(Loslote) to 'relatively innocent'. When I asked her about it - she said that she merely moved Loslote's name down, and retyped 'relatively uninnocentish' - which isn't even a category on either list. After of course saying she had copied/pasted Loslote's name under there. She also claimed that she didn't want to copy it in the first place. So honestly, her explanation of her actions.. made her look scummier - rather than clarify the 'mistake'.

I am not talking about fabrication in regards to BG copy/pasting Loslote's list. I am talking about fabrication in the fact the she listed Loslote under 'relatively innocent' then voted for her a handful of posts later.

I don't like how Wilwa is more than once, pushing how she voted for Sally.

I really do not like how Wilwa seems to be trying to put her vote somewhere where it will be effective. As in, she is looking for someone to lynch.
