Tol-in-Gaurhoth CXIV – The Evil Breath of Morgoth in Dor-lómin, Quarantine Thread

[Galadriel55]

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.

I need a version of the smiley with great big pointy wolf teeth...

And how do you know your reaction is not exactly what Hui intended?

See what I mean about low stakes / high level psychology? How do you know what level of bluff this is happening at? And who is being bluffed more: the GT or the future QT?

[Macalaure]

Skimmed the thread. I see I greatly overestimated the amount of conspiracy, or even thought, that you baddies put into the QT vote.

We're a majority of innocents in here at this point, and as long as we can remotely get our act together, we're in charge of the vote.

I am very sure that Boro is the seer. He has dreamt of Lommy and Brinn and found them innocent. I'm not sure who the third person is, but that person is innocent as well.

I haven't been reading much of the last Day since my vote didn't count anyway - what did you base this on?

[Macalaure]

When I went to analyze Boro I saw several things that looked excessively weird, but after a while the lights went on. I had to re-write everything and hint at him that I figured it out while keeping him in that semi-suspicious range that usually keeps people safe-ish from kills and lynches. I hope I didn't hint to obviously. I can post the details later.

We have all night after all....

[Macalaure]

I do have to say, Sally: If you had been more straightforward about your pick, then:

A) People's reactions to it would have been more telling.

B) I could have summarized my thoughts with a noose around my neck. If I turn out innocent, as I did, that might've been helpful for the village the next Day.

Bwahahaha! If this doesn't make me pleased.

[Macalaure]

On why I thought Boro was the seer.

The way he stays uninvolved but is able to go at great lengths about his thoughts when poked over it. He's not just goofing around having fun, he's just playing his cards really close to his chest.

His case against Lhuna - he didn't analyze anyone closely like that, so why her? Well, his analysis firmly rests on the assumption of Lommy's innocence. If he knew Lommy was innocent, it would make sense to suspect someone who makes a case against her that he doesn't like.

This doesn't make any sense to me logically, but the "Brinn is innocent" part really reads like a seer hint for people to figure out after he's dead.

This either reads as a wolfish "Geez, I'm so sorry I haven't been good at spotting wolves, yet, but I'm totally trying." or a seerish "I haven't been able to dream of any wolves yet, but I'm really trying."

He's also very panicky about a bandwaggon against him after Sally's reveal. Borowolf does not lose his cool that quickly, but Boroseer might.

It's not airtight, so feel free to make fun of it.

I think he dreamt of Lommy during Night1 or Night2 and Brinn during Night3. I don't have any idea who the third is. I wonder whether it might have been Rikae during Night2.

[Rikae]

I agree, Mac, that Brinn comment is especially odd.

If so, he'd be prioritizing the reactions of people with a fraction of a single vote over those with a full vote each.

Sorry, my cobbler friend, you're outnumbered now and logical discussions can resume. Obviously "Huey voted for Brinn" isn't a complete case against her, but it does justify a close look through her posting history which (finally!) I can talk openly about.

Bah, it's just like I've always said: Team Evil has more fun.

(I have never said this.)

[Nogrod]

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...
