Ten Year Anniversary Game: Living Thread - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Starting a vote tally, because it's getting to be bedtime and I don't want to just throw away my vote.

Kath -> Formendacil
Thinlómien -> McCaber
Eomer -> Nilp

And, uh, that's it...

None of these options look great to me. Nilp is raising my suspicions, but the thrashings of a wolf accruing lynch votes look a lot like an Ordo trying to stave off village defeat. McCaber raises my suspicions by his quietness, but every WW game ever has a lurker who turns out to be innocent.

I still like Eomer, but there's no point turning this into a FOUR-way race.

X-ed since Eomer's vote. Nilp is now up by one.

Oh, I forgot one way to stave off accusations in this village.

I could reveal myself as a Gifted. No one would know, except the Gifted themselves. And if that Gifted is already Dead (and you wouldn't know that), then I could have you dancing in the palm of my hands. And even if they're alive, they'd have to reveal themselves to refute me, exposing them to all sorts of NIGHT problems.

...

...

...But no, I'm not doing that.

Hope you're still alive, real Gifted people. This one's for you.

If you trust our two reveals (Boro doesn't seem to be around) then don't vote me or McCaber. Lommy voted McCaber but obviously before Sally got here.

I still don't get it. I've missed some post where our Known Innocents said "these people aren't evil" and I'm clearly failing to understand how they would KNOW that. At this point I'd almost rather try to tie the lynching again since killing an innocent is likely to be more fatal than successfully killing a would would be helpful... but I don't see that going anywhere and now is the time for me to vote--before I fall asleep at the computer.

Apparently McCaber is out and Eomer is out... and while suspicious Nilp is the only currently-voted candidate left. The votes stand:

Kath -> Form
Lommy -> McCaber
Eomer -> Nilp
Shasta -> Nilp 2
Nilp -> Nilp 3

That's 5 votes... my vote makes 6... and Nerwen at least may not be timezone-appropriate before the deadline.

++mormegil

I don't really know if he's guilty--I'm barely on the cusp of thinking he is, but he isn't McCaber, he isn't Eomer, he isn't Nilp, and he isn't me--and a couple of people have wondered about him, so maybe I'm not off my rocker in wondering.

I mean, of the options that are currently available, I guess I find Nilp the most....ridiculous, basically?

Any thoughts on Mith or Kath? More for tomorrow, really...

Suspicious and worryingly curious respectively. I'd be up for lynching Mith, I suppose? I don't know. I'm not into widening the options unless we can make it count.

mormegil · 06-08-2015, 07:22 PM

I don't know what to make of Nilp's self vote. It makes me almost want to believe him but if I feel that way I'm sure others do; so is it a way of self-preservation?

Boromir88 · 06-08-2015, 07:28 PM

++Form

Just got in and caught up. His posts look the sketchiest today.

Nerwen · 06-08-2015, 07:43 PM

May I suggest that it won't accomplish very much for the dead to give a vote to Lottie?

Missed that. She is doubled up with you so either way.

mormegil · 06-08-2015, 07:48 PM

++Nilp

I think he has bothered me for a while. His self vote almost changed my mind.

satansaloser2005 · 06-08-2015, 07:55 PM

++Nilp

I can't deny my friends their dreams.

Nerwen · 06-08-2015, 07:57 PM

Okay, it is now Mr Felagund regardless.

++Nilp
x'd with Sally.

Nerwen · 06-08-2015, 07:47 PM

Now I'm just going to skim the thread before voting. One thing I'd like to suggest is that toMorrow we try to set up a way of asking about Living players? What do you think?

Ach, Lommy was sleepy when she made that list. It won't affect anything.
