She was a Wolf in WW XII, Erbar Telamarth. I can't remember who modded it and all, but I seem to remember it was an amazing game.

Well, then I guess you're not going to like this. I've made a list of doom.

1) Diamond

And if you don't vote for someone on the list, you get lynched!

I've gotta go now. I'll be back tomorrow about four hours before the deadline, and I think I'll be able to stick around for the rest of the day.

Can we PLEASE hear from EVERYONE today. A LOT!

I want EVERYONE to lay out their suspicions of EVERYONE nice and clear. I can't stand having people hanging about the village whose positions are largely ambiguous. This way, if you're an innocent and you die then the village can look at your analysis knowing that you had no bad intentions, and if you're a Penguin and you die then the village can try and figure out who your partner in crime is.

If I haven't seen much of anything from a couple of you in particular by the end of the Day I'm probably going to vote for you, and others will probably do the same.

Starts with "nonsense" and then states that she's better at analysis than theorizing, says lynching the Cobbler would be no loss, finds a sneaky Cobbler like SpM more dangerous than a suicidal Cobbler. Corrects her Eonwe/Elenwe mistake. And here I go summarizing when I don't care for that.... Okay, my thought on this post is... Was this really the thing that sparked the analyze/theory debate?

#61

TP, Kitanna, and Boromir have caught her eye, and she addresses some of their posts. Boro's posts are indeed weird when I compare them to Roa's initial post, so I can see why an innocent Roa would find him to be off.

#70

Boro analysis, sans personal thoughts, which come in post:

#72 - #77 - #79

Makes valid points (obviously) about Boro's inconsistent posting. So... unless she were to be pulling another Roa/Nogord stunt a la DWW, things seems to speak highly for her innocence. It relies on the question of whether you think Roaguin and Boroguin would plot such heavy wolf on wolf action for Day 1.

#81

A reply to Ang, which makes Ang look worse and her look better, knowing now that Boro was guilty.

#88

Votes for Boro, no surprise there.

#92

Continued debate with Boro, a la #72/#77/#79.

#101

"I told you so" in response to Lal's reveal, chides village for forching Lal's hand, but approves of Ang's attempt to save her.

#110

Intends to vote for Kit to save Lal if no one else shows to vote for Boro.

#115

"Well, that just sucks then. Nevermind. NAria- what are you doing?"

#119

Trying to convince Naria to change her vote.

#124

"And Lal is safe! Good job Naria! Boromir now has 5 votes."

#129

"That was the most nerve-racking ten minutes of my month.

EDIT: Cross posted with mod again. I have to stop that."

#133

Not surprised by Kit's death, intends to analyze Boro and anyone who mentioned/interacted with him. Tells Lal to reveal only if the innocent person is in danger of being lynched.

#135

Says that if the person is the Hunter Lal should definitely reveal but not reveal that they are the Hunter. This is a somewhat self-defeating plan, because she'd just said not to reveal unless there seems to be danger of lynching, so if Lal followed her advice but revealed sooner than later, it would tell us that person is the Hunter.

#145

Makes her lists of people re: Boro.

#149

Explains Kit's Ranger reveal.

#151

Questions those who played with Boromir.

I can theorize that a Roaguin and a Boroguin could plot for Boro play things in a marketedly different way than his last game, get Boro lynched, then use his history of not fingering comrades as a defense for Roa. But this seems pretty out there, especially as it relies again on sacrificing Boro Day 1, which seems awfully reckless in a village where Roa wouldn't be able to make anymore werepenguins to play with.

#154

Says Ang and Jenny are pinging her radar, would like the Boro-knowledge, but questions the use of PMs. This once more seems innocent to me, as if she was a penguin orchestrating a plot in which Boro behaves differently than before, the PMs could only help her case.

#158

Um... yeah. I made a typo, saying TiG XX instead of TiG X, and she responded as if I actually meant TiG XX, even though I'd already fixed the typo at that point. Of course, she does follow it directly with a statement that she needs sleep. This strikes me as odd, though:

"Honestly, you could just tell us what he's prone to do- there's no reall reason to use them."

That in regards to PMs. Isn't she the one who wanted to know about what Boro is prone to do? There is a reason to use them, therefore, it's just a matter of being allowed to.

#191

She says more than I'm mentioning, but the points of interest are that she thinks Ang is the Cobbler and points out that Eonwe is likely Mod Fire fodder. If she and Eonwe were avian teamates and she was sure he was going to return, this could be a way of saving him from a lynching. But, I doubt it.

#206

Jenny summary/analysis. Builds a case very thourough case against her, thinks she is either a penguin or the Cobbler.

#210

"Eonwe, you do realize that if you don't vote today, you'll be removed from the game, don't you?"

#219

Votes Jenny, tying her with Valier.

#224

Responds to Ang about Diamond's possible guilt, but notes that I've never been guilty that she has seen, asks if I ever have been. (The answer to that is no, I never have.)

#231

Post votes, says Jenny is to be hanged.

#234

"Good bye, Lal. Well done, and thanks for your help."

#243 - #245

Ang summary/analysis/opinion. She thinks he is innocent, largely based on Boro's behavior, but doesn't rule his possible guilt out.

#249

Defends Valier, sort of, against Diamond and Firefoot.

#255 - #256

Diamond summary/analysis/opinion. I think she thinks I'm evil?

"A Diamond who goes along with others is a Diamond that just doesn't exist on the side of good."

At first I thought this read, "A Diamond who gets along with others..." and I thought, "Gee, thanks." Ha. I am, actually, an INFJ and this is what they say 'bout me:

Accurately suspicious about others' motives, INFJs are not easily led. These are the people that you can rarely fool any of the time.

So yeah, she may have a point there, if I'm allowing myself to be led, something is fishy. But I don't think I've been "going along" really, so much as taking comfort in the fact that I know tp isn't evil and purposefully misleading.

#259

Says that it's a good thing Jenny is lynched, points out Jenny's Cobbler hints [D'oh!]. Makes responses to tp, which I'm an too tired to summarize.

#260

States intent to analyze Naria. Comments on Eonwe, and I pretty much agree with what she says. (Obviously, I said similar things yesterDay.)

#262

Shoots down Firefoot's case against Valier.

#265

Naria analysis. Not much to say, because, after all, it's Naria....

#266 - #270 - #271 - #273 - #276 - #278 - #279 - #282

Here be her side of the Rumble In Da Jungle with Firefoot. Obviously, this entire thing is a nefarious plot to best me in the post count. Well, ha ha, I'm not going to let it happen! Which is why my Conclusion will follow in my next post.

Okay, so, I've noted that she was the last Wolf down in that game. Fascinating. Unfortunately, I have spent my evening on Firefoot and Roa analysis (analyses? analysi?) and to spend another couple hours researching Enca.... Sane Diamond wouldn't do it. I'll perhaps get back to you on Insane Diamond's stance.

Yes, but, I find your answers intriguing from a psychological standpoint. For instance, the fishnet stockings and hot pants you wore last night....

I hope you're not serious.

I should perhaps point out that I will not be around for the 4 and a half hours leading up to the deadline. Pooh. So, all this jabber you're getting from me now is me trying to get all my useful posting done while I can. After I go beddy-bye, you can only expect me to show up once more to vote before work.

That said, I may vote before bed, just on the off chance I oversleep or can't get online before work.... I mean, I get a retraction. Might as well indulge.
