WWJ IV: Let the insanity ensue - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Roa_Aoife · 02-14-2006, 09:02 PM

Oh, dear Kitanna! Clearly she was a victim of the system in which she lived! (I always knew those politicians werewolves in political clothing.) So, werewolves are among us. Indeed, we can no longer trust our neighbors. So, what shall become of us?

Jenny, you're mighty hasty to throw those accusations around when we have nothing to go on.

I think it would be best if we took the full time for everyone to post and reply before making decisive accusations like that.

Firefoot · 02-14-2006, 10:37 PM

Simply having everyone vote for the last contributor would not be the best plan, I do not think. For one thing, it creates an automatic bandwagon and Day 2 becomes almost as useless as Day 1, because if s/he is innocent, both wolves and innocents will have voted for him/her and there will be no discrimination. The wolves can hide easily in this scenario. The same works if s/he is a wolf. I would much rather see spread out votes than everyone voting for the same person. Additionally, some people will have to vote much earlier than others, so the last person who contributes may not have contributed by the time the first person votes.

I hope to see the remaining half of the village speak up sometime before I vote when I wake up tomorrow morning...

Oh I am perfectly aware that they are all shots in the dark. And indeed, here. Let me complete my Day 1 analysis:

Thinlomien ~ Where did he get the penguins? Do the penguins mean he's guilty?

JennyHallu ~ Innocent as a lamb. But paranoid, definitely paranoid.

Eonwe ~ In such a (well I thought it was) perfect village as this, why would she want to be a hermit?

Wilwarin ~ Well, if he's a wolf, we're probably doomed. He's probably smarter than us.

Sleepy Ranger ~ Messianic claims? Seems wolvish.

Firefoot ~ Hmm...likes horses...well, actually I think Fire is probably innocent. Otherwise the horses would be scared.

Roa_Aoife ~ Never trust lobbyists. Same as salespeople. Very nice, but not on your doorstep.

Valier ~ With her grace and flexibility she could dance around any of our suspicions. And the shoe obsession is just weird.

Nogrod ~ I haven't got anything...but maybe he's just trying to fly under the radar. Probably a wolf.

Elu Ancalime ~ I'm married to a brass musician, actually. Trombonist. Elu is a wolf.

Gandalf_the _white ~ See Wilwarin

Folwren ~ Seamstress...hmm...See Nogrod.

Mithalwen ~ Sorry, it'll take me a long time to distrust the cookie-maker. If you're a wolf, Mith, I'll cry. Oh, and where's my muffin?

Sleepy Ranger · 02-14-2006, 11:09 PM

Wait? What? Murdered with a letter opener? I call shenannigans! I mean yer all just over-reacting she obviously died listening to Britney Spears... we ought to lynch her...

But if you insist that she was murdered here are my opinions on the public-

1) Thinlómien ~ Penguin-fisher - This chica is pretty cool. Shes always at my concerts with those weird guys in suits.

2) JennyHallu ~ Friendly neighborhood tax collector - This womans a cool
person herself except for when she tries to kill me over taxes. I mean that is so not cool dudette. And dearie, I ain't claiming nothing. I am the Messiah of Rock 'n' Roll! Wait... did I say kill?

3) Eonwe ~ Hermit - I've never seen her speak or heard her move... is she even alive? I mean watsupwiddat?!?

4) Wilwarin ~ Mathematics professor - Two plus two equals Thomas Jefferson is all I have to say.

5) Sleepy Ranger ~ Messiah of Rock 'n' Roll - This dude reeks of awesomeness, hes got a really cool band which is just full of high octane coolocity. I mean really, hes just awesome. This guys so hot that I hope you got sunglasses and hands off unless you want the burned off! Form a single line for autographs please.

6) Firefoot ~ Person who runs the stables - I've seen her around at my concerts, shes alright.

7) Roa_Aoife ~ Local protestor/ lobbyist - Shes been around at my last few
concerts, she even has an autographed photo of the band. This could only mean one thing... STALKER!

8) Valier ~ Dance instructor - Have you ever seen her tearing up the floor at one of my concerts? No? Well neither have I though I do believe she stole one of our surveillance cameras.

9) Nogrod ~ Pipe-weed grower - I like this guy... >_>

10) Elu Ancalime ~ Brass Musician - Pretty cool guy, played back-up for us once.

11) Gandalf_the _white ~ Magician - He opened our show once,
professional guy.

12) Folwren ~ Seamstress - She has way too much stress in her job, maybe she ought to kick back and come to one of my concerts yea. That would definately reduce the stress. Of course then she'd be a seam but thats beside the point.

13) Mithalwen ~ Baker/confectioner - She provides free cake for my concerts how could she be evil?

In the end I suggest we lynch Nogrod. Why? Because theres a chance he may offer free pipe-weed to be not killed.

Just checking in and delivering muffins ..... carbs are good for shock. WIll post properly at lunchtime.

Gandalf_the _white · 02-15-2006, 04:20 AM

hmmm i don't think i'm too smart this is only my second game

but i did survive till the last night in my first game (where bits of me were used to send a message lol) since we don't have retractable votes i'll probaly vote later if i get chance but it will be a random one as i can't have any suspicions on the first day!!

Nogrod · 02-15-2006, 04:21 AM

Sorry. I must have overslept. And now hands full of work amidst this catastrophy! If I'm not into packing my newest brand immediately, they will dry out and I'll be in ruins. I shall come to discuss this terrible situation in a couple of hours time.

Still. My instinct would say, that someone with a rebellious or otherwise anti-social character could the one we are looking for. It's true, that evil may have a hideout anywhere. But as we have no other clues right now, I would like to know what f.ex. Eonwe or Roa have been doing last night.

Sorry, I'll have to go now. Coming back soon.

Gandalf_the _white · 02-15-2006, 04:26 AM

well nogrod you could say that but werewolves can be quiet and stay out of the way this can be just as good a tactic as being a loud mouth.

Sleepy Ranger · 02-15-2006, 05:23 AM

Since I'm your resident rock star heres a song in tribute of our dear Kitanna.

He slings his guitar off his back and strums it bit before starting a bit of tune. He then begins to play 'Gone Away' by 'The Offspring'. A tribute to a friend.

Maybe in another life
I could find you there
Pulled away before your time
I can't deal, it's so unfair

And it feels, and it feels like
Heaven's so far away
And it feels, yeah it feels like
The world has grown cold
Now that you've gone away

Leaving flowers on your grave
To show that I still care

He then cuts off and begins to play at a softer pace, letting the song fade away.

Rest well, Kitanna our dear friend. My next concert is dedicated to Kitanna, five of the clock, Sunday evening. May our music soothe your soul Kitanna. And friends, may we bring down the swift justice of ROCK 'N' ROLL He strums a few chords upon the vile fiends who commited such an act.

Firefoot · 02-15-2006, 06:30 AM

Well, I won't be around again in time to vote, so the time has come for me to cast mine. I don't see anything particularly wolvish about any of you and today has thus far been completely useless, despite my efforts to avoid this.

++Gandalf_the_white

Nothing personal. It's pretty much random.

But may I ask you all one more time... can we try to get some useful discussion out here during the remainder of the day? I don't care what we discuss - strategy, probably, as that's about the only thing there is - but try to discuss something, it makes the day at least somewhat more productive and informed. I tried to get you started but no one really responded.
