Tol-in-Gaurhoth XIX: Ang Sagang Daga, bow.

[SamwiseGamgee]

Wow, amazing what you miss in 12 hours, eh?!

So, what am I thinking? Well, my suspicions are still mainly on Lhuna. I don't think she's explained herself at all well and unless I see something more substantial either 1. in her defence or 2. to incriminate someone else I'll be voting for her before nightfall.

I've had a look back and tried to pick apart anything and everything Ang said, and this is my result: not much! I agree with others who've said that the wolves really need to find the seers if they want to have any real chance of winning this game, and so I can only say- in shameless plagirism of others- that they based their decision on the hedgehogs speaking to him thing ( ). The other possibility is that they just did it at random, in which case my analysis has been for nought.

LMP, I'm very unhappy with you for post #219. If the lovers hadn't thought of this then you must be their favourite person in the whole village right now! Unless, of course, you already shared the information with your unfortunate beau? I don't think so, though. I think you just had an idea, didn't think and posted it. I'm inclined to forgive you, simply because I'm not sure I'd have done any differently myself.

Eonwe's vote is crazy. Two days, two thoroughly random votes. Is he a caution-to-the-wind wolf or just a downright unhelpful villager? Whatever he is, he made my list.

Eomer, for the minute, I think is probably innocent. Ok, so some of his posts are pure conjecture, but sometimes fuzzy logic is good. But he's a clever guy, and I must sadly admit that I may never learn to trust him.

Sorry to ruin your day. I only just thought of it before I posted it up. However, I expect that I haven't told the Lovers anything they didn't already realize, since they were right in the middle of "what shall we talk about?" already on Night 1. I said it because I think all us ordos need to keep it mind for our own sakes.

[the guy who be short]

You can hardly blame LMP for pointing that out. It was quite obvious.

I need bed.

[SamwiseGamgee]

LMP, that's actually very amusing. Imagine that awkward 'first date' PM:
"So... you come here often?" But your point is fair: the lovers won't be squandering the 1 PM they have, so they had probably already thought of it.

TGWBS, are you going to bother explaining your vote? Seriously, guys, we're making it so easy for those lupinous cretins if we just vote with no reason attatched other than being tired.

[Thinlómien]

TGWBS you and your wolf proclaiming annoy me. I happened to look the WWJ-thread and there Fea proclaimed she was a wolf and was found to be one. That example surely doesn't benefit you. Also, I'm wondering why are you putting all this "I'm a wolf" show up. I can see two possible reasons: 1. You are a wolf and want to look like too weird to be a wolf. 2. You want to create suspicion so that you won't get killed by the wolves. Either way, I don't like your tactics.

Well, Lommy appears on the list because she’s such a genuinely nice girl.

A phrase that I would normally take as a compliment sounds like an accusation in a game of WW.

(All quotes by Cailín)

Ho-hum. She spent the first day agreeing with others…

That's the only thing you can do if you want to participate and don't have any great new ideas. I wasn't merely agreeing, though, I was also making comments on ideas. (Not that that's much more, but...)

She seems to consider all sides of the argument, which is a very Dutch and unproductive way to go about things.

What should I do then? Say a half of my thoughts and appear short-sighted and more importantly, desert my point.

Then suddenly she follows Anguirel, voting Glirdan whom she did not suspect before.

I can't recall that I was voicing suspicions of anyone on Day 1. So, following that logic whoever I had voted would have brought that accusation against me. Lovely.

Later on, she states she made a wrong decision.

Ummm... I probably did. As I said before I didn't have time to go through all older posts and had no idea who to vote so I just voted someone who seemed a bit suspicious and who had gathered some votes, so I wouldn't doom Garin, who I assumed was maybe innocent. Later, I got a chance to skim through Glirdan's posts and didn't find anything suspicious there, so I told my fellow villagers that I believed him probably innocent.

Did she try to align herself with an innocent? Convenient that Ang died last night, then. This is odd though. And really very nice, too.

Care to explain a bit?

Today she considers Lhuna’s case, and points our attention towards the silent ones. She further says nothing particularly interesting, except for a slight concern she might be trusting Spawn too much (and don’t we all?).

If you think that's uninteresting I think most of the people here (not all though) haven't said anything much more interesting.

I’m a bit worried about you, Thin.

You should be. I might get to be a lynched innocent.

As to my suspicions... I'm again afraid of the silent ones. Valier's response makes me feel less suspicious about her. Still, I don't understand why is she using code language.

Naria is scarily silent. I may vote her.

Lhuna is a bit suspicious. I'm not going to repost all the arguments against her, but I do find her a bit strange.

Further suspicions need more reading.

And I seem to have xposted with a lot of people.

[Glirdan]

Firstly, I cross posted with Eomer and Samwise up there ( ).

Secondly, I'm going to cast my vote....

++Naria

As I said earlier, I'm very unnerved by quiet people and Naria definetly fits that category. Good luck everyone and may we find a Wolf.

[Thinlómien]

I admit I have no idea about the wolves and I'm going to vote soon. I try to skim through my main suspects' posts to have an idea if they're wolvish or not, so I won't be maing the same error as yesterday.

I admit that Lhuna is very suspicious but I don't think this comment

If I had voted for one, I would have been a bandwagoning wolf. Now that I chose not to vote for either, I'm a noncomittal werewolf.

is extremely wolvish. Really, I'd rather consider one of a villager's bored to being suspicious about only because a stupid vote she regrets (?).

[Thinlómien]

I'm facing a choice between Lhuna and Naria. The first one has been acting suspiciously (though only one vote, no more, no less) and the second one hasn't said anything but nonsense. All the time I'm fearing we are after wrong people. As I'm fearing now about my own suspicions.

Naria has been speaking nonsense, rudely said. Her posts, if they have something to say, it's covered with humour. I don't find that very trustworthy. I do find her more suspicious than Lhuna. Lhuna at least has been speking sense at some points. I'll be watching her.

++Naria

EDIT: xposted with Celuien

[Eomer of the Rohirrim]

Why so angry at LMP, Samwise? His ideas threaten the village not one jot.

TGWBS:

I'm sowing confusion?

What was odder? A random vote designed to gauge reaction; or asking to be lynched and confusing the entire village?

There is reasoning behind my silly little idea, it's just that it's terrible. I was typing in a rush as the thoughts entered my head. And I did go back and check a few minutes later, and then posted the relevant information about who had garnered votes. I just waited until I had finished my post before scrabbling around for the necessary name. It's ok to put things off for a few minutes, you know.

My point (which was not put well at all) was that perhaps it's likely that the wolves would kill someone who had voted for a wolf, in the hope of getting a Seer. It's unlikely they'd kill Anguirel randomly. So either Glirdan is a wolf or we were way off in our voting yesterday.

Not indubitable; but not the absolute worst idea you'll ever hear.

That's why I'm probably going to vote for Glirdan. If he's innocent then I'm inclined to think that certain others (LMP, for example) are innocent; because if they were wolves they would be looking for the Seer in amongst the people who voted for them.

[SamwiseGamgee]

I must disagree, Eomer. If the non lupine lover knows the names of the wolves they could pose as a seer and lead us all on a merry dance, could they not? Or am I just being silly?

Could, but it wouldn't be too smart. Ordo-lover becomes instant wolf-bait, leading to the death of both lovers.

[Celuien]

Just got back. It's been a busy day.
I'll study the village scrolls and return shortly.

[Lalaith]

I repeat. Samwise, Form, Lmp. You're all intelligent men. Are you telling us that it never occurred to any of you, until Lmp thought of it just now, that the wolf lover wouldn't tell all to his ord lover?
