You mean this, my dear?

Really. What exactly did I say that led you to jump from "kinda curious" to "99% sure I'm going to vote her"? Are you sure it wasn't Greenie and Kit's reactions?

Well, naturally I'm not keen on getting lynched– but also, I'm rather keen on catching wolves, and your behaviour now is looking distinctly lupine. Like a wolf trying to find an alternative lynchee.

Aha. So you know I'm innocent?

Is there anything wrong with having suspicions? Not until they are pointed at you, perhaps?

Not until they look wolfish.

EDIT:X'd since G55 at #154.

12 hours of meditation led me to it... (aka between my first post and the time I have been able to start posting again) Also the fact that Bom (my #2 suspect from yesterDay) did not show up toDay.

Quite sure, though you won't believe me anyways.

I could say the same about you.

I think the whole point of suspecting someone is to think them to be guilty - until proven right or wrong by the mod.

Come on now, saying I'm up to something is like saying my jaw drops and I become speechless around shiny red hair.

You might not be cramped for time but you're better than this watered down, non-committing Inzil version you've been giving for nearing 2 days.

To be honest, I suspect you and Kath more than Nerwen or G55.

Kath explained her vote Day 1 ok enough, but her posts after have been full of misunderstanding people it seems:

Inzil said the time of Bom's vote made him the worst of the Pitch voters. And I said, the time didn't matter. Bom looked suspicious for apparently backing off Pitch, while still leaving the door open to vote for him later.

Boro for imagining a Pitch bandwagon and making a bigger deal out of it than there needs to be.

Coincedental cross-voting aside, there was still 4 straight votes for Pitch. So, how did I imagine a bandwagon?

I cn see both sides. It depends on what you consider to be a bandwagon - just a clear trend to vote a certain person, or people jumping onto the trend. Did I understand this right?



++NERWEN



I probably will not be back for the rest of the Day, so I'm voting now, just in case. Good luck, village.

Guess there's a difference. But in the case of jumping onto a trend, even though Bom's vote came last, you could say he started the trend too.

Vote count...

Kitanna ---> Bom
Greenie ---> Nerwen
Kath ---> Inzil
Legate ---> G55
G55 ---> Nerwen (2)

What I've seen toDay does look all right, but I'm not ready to say "innocent'.

It just that I'm riddled with ADHD, you s....hey, look! A dog with a curly tail!

Really, though. The interplay between G55 and Nerwen is reminiscent of Pitch and Bom yesterDay. I'd like to vote Bom, but it doesn't look like there'll be much support.

x/d with Boro

I really don't like voting for someone who hasn't been around to answer or give a defense.

But of Nerwen, G55, or Bom, based on his actions and vote yesterday, Bom looks more suspicious and I'd rather vote him. Although, I'd prefer most to vote for sally or Kath. I wouldn't feel comfortable if I was forced to make a decision between G55 and Nerwen today.

Edit: crossed with Nerwen

Let it be noted that G55 has already been caught in a direct lie– see my previous post.

[satansaloser2005]

Between Nerwen and Galadriel, I must choose....

I'd stay around, but I'm simply too tired. Sorry, kids.

And I sucked it up to do a quick re-read of G55's post, there's been a few things I've overlooked

:/ *sigh* *bedtime* See y'all toMorrow, unless you lynch me *glares at villagers* or kill me *glares at wolves*.

Granted bandwagons can form out of nowhere, but that came after she saw the 3 votes for Pitch. And yesterday, aside from Pitch (who had already voted for her), I don't recall many supsicious reactions towards her.

And then today with just the making jokes about being a wolf. I don't get the point of doing that, and more often then not it's what always made me suspicious of Fea.

But, this would mean I have to trust you now Nerwen. Frankly, I've never been able to figure you out, and at some point in the past I gave up trying. I'm going through your posts next to figure out if I can and this isn't some aggressive strike back at someone who's been all over the place today.

Oh, it's certainly not easy to trust Nerwen. I just think she looks better at this point than G55.

Yeah, yeah. Well, I guess he'll have to make an appearance toMorrow.

I believe I could go for G55 based on what Nerwen's said, as well as the fact that she was involved in the Pitch-wagon yesterDay (along with, coincidentally, I'm sure, Bom ). It's hard for me to believe no wolves were involved with that.

...says the person who was involved in the Pitch-waggon...

Of course I was. And I'm the only one I can trust. I'm inclined to think Kit looks relatively innocent at the moment, though.

[Galadriel55]

Well guess what - I am back.

Sez Nerwen who is eager to get me out of the way. Ain't that some overblowing?

Poor Nerwen– but, you know, it's just little me, I do that kind of thing...")

Let's see what you say toMorrow in the event that I am lynched.

And speaking of that - toDay might be a heavy blow for the villagers - by their own hands! (well, mostly, with only three pairs guiding it in the "right" direction) - with azura almost sealing his/her fate by now on top of everything else.

Edit: xed since 173

[Azura]

I vote ++Sallybecause of her earlier posts(all I could think of...and will probably get yelled at for doing somthing here wrong...I hate being a newbie)

So it *wasn't* anything I said toDay at all. Even though you claimed it was, earlier. Well, well.

No, probably not– given the thing I just quoted.

Okay... that just raised the stakes. I can't interpret this as anything but a claim that you have a special role of *some* kind.

I think this is a semantical quibble on the definition of "bandwaggon". She's saying it's not a waggon unless everyone votes in succession, and knowing about the previous votes. So technically this wasn't a bandwaggon, more of a "sudden group pounce". It was still peculiar, though, whatever you decide to call it.

EDIT:X'd since Boro at #161.
