It's nice to be appreciated. ^.^ Even if it is [possibly] for the wrong reasons.

*brain wheels spinning* But what would you say if we keep doing it even after the thread becomes innocently dominated (and it's gotta eventually, statistically speaking)? If innocents vote Brin too for the sole purpose of making the GT go "whaaat?", just because they can?

Or because even though we'd have the majority, someone doesn't turn up to vote ...

Or because we decide Brinn really is the best target.

Y'know, we're now into a gap in the rules - if Sally really is the Hunter, does she or her victim have the tie-break? Neither of them are night-kills, which is the only thing the rules rule out...

Soooo... I was unable to log on since my previous post here, and the GT wrote two and a half new pages. ?!?!?!?! Also, glancing at the QT in passing, looks like something really exciting happened. Will catch up to GT first, then see what you guys have to say about it.

Hi, Sally! Hi, Mac! Welcome to the madhouse... er, infirmary.

Per the rule change last Night, the quarantinies are allowed to keep nattering all night long, so if you feel up to it after that intense final hour, please do say hello.

Holy Moly 2 of these pages are in the last 15 minutes oh sticks...

At least sally didn't claim to be the Ranger...

Are people who are insisting on her revealing the Hunt doing so because they are afraid she is hunting one of them?

But you can only know it's not working when you know what it's trying to accomplish. And whatever Hui may or may not be trying to accomplish, my personal goal is precisely this.



Ok, caught up to GT. Welcome, newcomers!

Pretty sure it's still Sally, as Mac wasn't actually lynched. But will wait for Nog to confirm.

Lol. I'm sorry for laughing sally. But I would certainly have enjoyed that outcome.

Okay, now I can speak freely, anyway.

My goal was to dissuade people from voting for her, which it did. The fact that I got night killed made her look less wolfish to me.

However, the fact that Huey voted for her toDay opens up a whole new discussion. After all, getting the "evil QT vote" for the second day in a row was about the safest position Brinn could be in.

Members of the QT

Just updating a list here as well. I'll try to update this daily form now on as the Thread seems to grow pretty fast.


Galadriel55 – Andróg, the Cobbler (voted into QT on Day1)

Rikae – Haldir, formerly healthy person (infected by the shady Infectors on Night2)

Huinesoron – Hareth, an Infector (voted into QT on Day2)

Kitanna – Huor, the Ranger (infected in the woods by the Infectors on Night3)

Sally – Túrin, the Hunter (voted into QT on Day3)

Macalaure – Grithnir, healthy person (dragged into the QT by the Hunter on Day3)


On another issue.

The first tie-breaker on Day4 will be Sally.

If Sally is not involved in a tie, then it will be hS whose vote decides.

In a case where neither is part of a tie, it is G55 who calls it.

If everyone votes a different person (omly other option if I counted it correctly in haste), then it is the latest incomer aka. next Night's victim whose vote counts.


This really is a special Village...

First nice thing that's been said about me toDay. (Now this one I'm not sore about - I was revealed as a wolf, after all!)

"It's seven minutes to deadline but I'm not telling who I'm hunting."

Sally, you have some sort of plan here, but I'm a petty-dwarf if I know what it is.

And that's Deadline.

Whoo! So Day 1 we had "I'm the Ranger HAHA nope", Day 2 we had "SUDDENLY Huinesoron", and Day 3 we had "Sally the silent hunter". I tell you, reading through a full page of replies and going "where is she? She must say something soon!" was absolutely gripping.

And I'm still not sure who's coming to join us!
