WWJ I: A New Saga, A New Beginning... Or Is IT!?!?!? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Feanor of the Peredhil · 10-01-2005, 11:10 PM

Jack (aka Folwren): is known as Jack because he is Jack the Ripper. Which means he's bad. Which means he's a wolf.

Sleepy Ranger: is obviously the Ranger and should be treated with the utmost respect.

The Only Real Estel: may be the Ranger... seeing as how he is the Real Estel, who was a Ranger.

Bergil: sounds like Virgil, who was a poet, which rhymes with know it, so he's the Seer.

Eonwe: if you switch the letters around, it says Ee Won. Which is kind of like We Won. Which is very much like saying that Eonwe is confident in success, which means Eonwe is obviously a wolf that has a plan.

Gurthang: rhymes with Fang, which wolves have. Point proven.

Hiriel: Starts with an H. Hunter also starts with an H. Coincidence? I think not.

Kitanna: A long slender sword. That cuts things. Like a wolf's fangs. And claws.

Malkatoj: is Jotaklam backwards. What this tells us is that... well, we can't be certain, and it's confusing. Which brings to mind the Cobbler.

Rune Son of Bjarne: Runes are acedemic, which shows us that Rune is a scholar, which shows us that Rune has had some education, which obviously proves that he was once a newt. He did get better, but the newt-like tendencies remain. Which make me think he's innocent.

Thinlomien: Sounds vaguely like some sort of Chinese food. I like to eat Chinese food, and I'm almost certain that wolves wouldn't be adverse to consuming Chicken Chow Mein, which tells us that Thinlo is innocent, and likely to be eaten with a chopstick.

WaynetheGoblin: The Goblin? Come on... like that's not evil sounding.
Feanor of the Peredhil: pure and innocent as the wind driven snow.

Love you all, darlings, and hope this is food for thought.

How horrible

Glirden always read poetry to calm down what ever I was baby sitting. Also your hilarious fea.

malkatoj · 10-02-2005, 09:32 AM

Well, I sure did sleep in today. I guess that comes from staying at the inn with Sleepy Ranger , enjoying a few* drinks. Glirdan's dead, you say? That's not too great...I loved his poetry, at least when I was sober.

Who would kill Glirdan? My only suspicion as of now lies on Feanor of the Peredhil because of her 'objective' analysis of each person's status. Though highly amusing, she pegged 5 people as wolves right off the bat. She also claimed innocence herself, giving no reason at all.

Notwithstanding, we don't really have enough evidence of anybody else to voice strong suspicions yet; this is always difficult the day of the mod's death.

For now, Jack, I'll need one of your best swords, and please try to balance it for someone with five fingers this time, okay? Six was exciting, but after a while it starts to affect your ability and I'll need all my power here.

*25 or so

Eonwe · 10-02-2005, 11:31 AM

hello my friends. poor glirdan.

well i have a few suggestions for this village. first off, lets all get out there and start talking. that is the only thing that will ever give us a bead on teh wolves. and i think isn't it a good idea for everyone to vote, that way there is a trail. i think that's how is to be done...

anyway, some more stuff. as we go on, could we all give our suspicions of peole and then back them up. so instead of just saying "i don't like how XXXXXX voted." say, "this XXXXXXX is what a wolf would accomplish by voting this way." or whatever it happens to be. the last ww game a i playing in, i couldn't follow people's arguments and could never make out the underlying reasons people thought others were suspicious.

ok that said, get out and talk. and vote.

ps. i am going out tonight at 5:15 and may not be back before 10:30, so i might have to vote early or not at all. we'll see how it goes.

Kitanna · 10-02-2005, 12:06 PM

Poor dead Glirdan, who knew there were beings in this town who hated poetry so much...

And the village is so quiet. Too quiet for my tastes. Looking over what has been said there is no one who stands out to me more then anyone else. You're all equally suspcious.
Though I would like to ask Eonwe a question...

I'm wondering why you think that? In my opinion that seems as bad as everyone jumping on a bandwagon.

Eonwe · 10-02-2005, 12:11 PM

it was my impression that it is good to have people vote; that way you have more a chance to get a wolf, and the other wolfs will save him. and so you'll have a trail, because isn't voting analysis one of teh biggest indicators in teh game. to tell the truth, i don't know that this is a good idea, but i thought it might be. if that makes sense

I was thinking the ectsact same thing, only Feanor has been frank enough to speek openly of her suspisions.

What could this mean. . .

i am having trouble figuring out this mistery !

But i will shortly inform you all of whom i suspect!

Eonwe · 10-02-2005, 01:52 PM

well, anyone have any thoughts about this whole affair?

i only have about and hour and a half left, but i will be checking periodically though...

Ay, well... for those of you with little experience with me, it's not frankness that allows me to speak so openly, but rather a warped sense of humor and bad grasp of logic. In plain terms... I've been labelled by the community as bonkers as conkers. In my own terms... I just don't particularly mind if you label me as wolf or not. It would possibly be in your best interest to lynch me early, but at the same time, you would be losing valuable (read: innocent and therefore uncorrupted) insight, so I don't much recommend it. Get used to seemingly random accusations. I tend to spout them on a regular basis. I've coined the term observation by agitation. I watch reactions. Now, to business.

It is our first day after the tragedy of Glirdan, may he rest in peace, and we have naught to go on until at least tonight, galling as it may be to admit. Unless, of course, we happen to have a descendant of Malbeth in the audience that has perceptively dreamt of one of our... shall we say... wooooolves?

Which, if we do, it is quite a bad idea to lynch said person. We want our Seer to stay alive long enough to be of use, no? How to avoid this? There isn't a way. I mean, any way s/he would tell us, the wolves are presumably bright enough to catch on to. So let's forget about saving the seer, since it's too tough to really worry about.

The hunter... no biggie, as also the ranger. The ranger is entirely expendable, as is only truly an asset once the Seer is known. The cobbler... we'll find out more about him/her when the time comes. Day one is a bad time for that sort of thinking.

The wolves... Shall we draw at random? Shall we judge based on post count? Most vocal is obviously a wolf hiding in the spotlight? Bad plan, because that would probably call for lynching me, and I assure you, we don't want that. My recommendation is to kill TOREstel.
