The Only Real Estel · 10-06-2005, 05:13 PM

My vote (in case you hadn't figured it out yet): ++ Gurthang

My reasons: Already stated many times

Now. I will not be around until NIGHT has already fallen. Most likely the wolves will kill our seer, but no matter who they kill - Fea, me, or Hiriel - stick to the plan.

If Gurthang is a wolf we all know to lynch malkatoj next.

If Gurthang is not a wolf - lynch malkatoj anyway. Don't let anyone tell you different, the evidence is way too strong. After that, I suggest that Jack would be the next logical choice but I probably won't be around that long so it'll be up to you all.

Oh, and Fea. You once asked me if I protected you or not. What if I am not the Ranger at all & have just been playing like I was? And what if the Ranger didn't protect you last night? Just something to chew on...

The Only Real Estel · 10-06-2005, 05:25 PM

Sorry for the double post but some more food for thought:

Perhaps Jack wouldn't be the third wolf if Gurthang is proved innocent (which I hope he won't be). Bergil did say that he thought "no wolves would have voted" - Jack did not vote. That could've been a bluff but I think it unlikely.

I've always thought Eowne to be innocent but she has been somewhat noncommital & her vote for Bergil could have been a bold way to clear her of suspicion...sorry if I'm confusing, but I'm just throwing some thoughts out there.

Goodness, I've missed a lot.

Yeah, both Eonwe and Rune I've thought innocent throughout, but Rune has voiced some strong suspesions early on and Eonwe has mostly lain back. It could indeed be a plot to keep a "quiet" wolf among the villagers to take out all the gifteds even though we hang Gurthand and Malkatoj (one of whom, I agree, is deffinitely guilty, if not them both. Personally I am more certain of Malkatoj) As for the aacusations of Jack, I think that's scambling on Gurthang's part.

4. Your process of elimination isn't quite as good as TORE's, I've noted. Why excuse Eonwe and Rune when your reasons for letting them go is one of the very reasons you're accusing me?

I side with Jack here, and this further highlights Eonwe in my mind. (I don't have much time, alas, to back this up. But my gut trusts Rune) If Gurthang doesn't turn out to be a wolf, Eonwe's someone to deffinitely watch out for. But all the arguments by TORE seem sound to me. Doesn't seem to be anything more to weigh in on, save to say that I hope, as far as killing the proven innocents go, I go before TORE or Fea. Sorry that I didn't get to post anything else today. Real life distractions. *sighs*
Any road, I'll go along with the plan.

++ Gurthang

Folwren · 10-06-2005, 06:30 PM

Not that it matters much any more. But, to keep myself out of trouble with people, I'll vote.

++Gurthang.

If he's innocent (which I doubt he is) don't just assume that I am a wolf. We all will have made a mistake - including TORE and Fea.

And time!! Expect Gurthang's death shorlty.

Glirdan · 10-06-2005, 08:39 PM

The villagers assembled in the square once again, but not for happy disscussions on who they thought was a wolf, like they did a few time that day, but to condemn one to death.

Quite a few villagers were suspected that day and they were certain that they had found another wolf. How could anyone argue against The Only Real Estel's arguments?

The tied Gurthang's hands behind his back and brought him to the gallows. As the villager holding Gurthang walked up the steps with Gurthang, the gallows collapsed. Lukily, they both lived. "What do we do now?" asked one villager
"The gallows was are only means of lynching villagers!!" said another.
"I've got an idea!! Let's use his instruments!!" suggested one. This was met with a chorus of cheers and applause. They led Gurthang to his house and mad hime kneel on the ground and wait as they brought out his instruments and started beating him with them. Eventually, the gasps of pain from Gurthang ceased. He was dead, but he did not transform. The villagers just killed one of their own.

Dead
Glirdan (mod) - got a quill throught the head on Night 1
Wayne (Cobbler) - lynched by villagers on Day 1
Kitanna (ordinary villager) - Died of Alchool poisoning on Night 2
Bergil (Wolf) - stabbed with silver blade on Day 2
Gurthang (ordinary villager) - beaten to death by his own instruments on Day 3

Alive
Eonwe
Feanor of the Peredhil
Jack (aka Folwren)
Hiriel
Malkatoj
Rune Son of Bjarne
Sleepy Ranger
The Only Real Estel
Thinlomien

*Wolves, start PMing. I need a name from the Seer, Ranger, Hunter and Wolves. Remember to send them to both myself and The Perky Ent.

Glirdan · 10-07-2005, 09:17 PM

The village of Fwedawick woke up the next morning, hoping against hope that the Ranger was once again successful in protecting a village. They assembled in the town square for the daily head count and were not surprised, yet still upset, to find that one of their own was missing. The villager's walked over to The Only Real Estel's house and walked in, not wanting to think about what grizzly scene woulod meet them inside.

They walked into the living room. No one was there. They checked the kitchen, the garden, outhouse, and cupboards. Nothing. They checked the bedroom and finally found him, but in a peculiar way. He looked as if he was asleep. They walked up to him and saw that his eyes had been gouged out and replaced by peaches. The strange thing was that they couldn't find his eyes, and then another strange thing met them. "PIE!!!" said one villager and the villager took it and the fork that was conviently placed with the pie and dug in. "Mmm!! Good-" he stopped in mid scentence and everybody paniced as they heard a gaging sound from the villager. Thinlomien, the village healer, rushed up and started hitting the villager on the back. As he did so, the villager threw up, and everyone screamed, one even fainted. With the regurgitation came The Only Real Estel's eyes. If the villagers weren't so busy screaming, they probably would have heard the sniggers of delight that came from the Wolves inside the house....

*Wolves, stop PMing. Villagers, do your thing.
**Just a reminder, The Perky Ent will be taking over for me tomorrow as I have a wedding to go to. I should be back for Night 5's death however.

Folwren · 10-08-2005, 08:44 AM

I don't know what to think or what to say.

Fea...I know you can't answer this question, but perhaps voicing it will give the others something to think about...am I correct in thinking that if you protected me two NIGHTS ago, and on that night, the wolves attempted to kill me, I am as proved innocent as though the Seer had dreamt of me and said that I was?

TORE being the seer...I'll warrant Malkatoj is guilty without question.

He was wrong about Gurthang, though.

Remember, he had three dreams. Who did he know about before he died?

I don't have time to speculate - for real and not for pretend I have to go clean out my horses' pen. Will try to be back later.

Oh...best tell you my main suspects:

Malkatoj
Eonwe or Thin
And possibly Sleepy.

Consider those four. Don't lynch them all - we only need two. I really do apologize for not being able to write any more and tell you why I suspect people. I'm going to be thinking, though, while I work.

(And, those I just listed, don't get offended...remember...we have to start somehwre...)

Come now, TORE. If you aren't the Ranger, than it's pretty damned obvious that I'm not the Seer.
