Ah....this was only meant in jest

No harm, no foul.

Since you have been as quiet as myself this game, when we both are rather talkative, is what I was commenting on.

Edit: Jenny, this was from another time....long long ago. A little jumpy are we?

Oh I know Val I replied in the same spirit .... I was a wolf then as we both understood hence there was no harm in using that expression. However it has indeed produced an interesting response ......

Ah...Agreed. Now perhaps a little insight into the brain of Valier and why she sometimes says the crazy things she says.

Well desperate times call for desperate measures and since the Fat Lady maybe on the point of starting her vocalise - the agent provocatueuse thing is as good a strategy as any....

Jenny

Votes for Eomer

Valier
Mac
Nogrod

I'm going to get started on this list with Eomer, and see if I have time for more. I ask someone else to analyze me, and are there any volunteers to help me with the rest? A group of several would be good so we know we don't have a wolf trying to skew the results.

JennyHallu · 07-05-2006, 12:08 PM

Didn't realize you two were talking about a past game. Very confused.

JennyHallu · 07-05-2006, 12:12 PM

We can only afford to slay an innocent today if we nab the three wolves one after another for the rest of the game. We are getting down to the wire here.

If we slay an innocent today we wake up tomorrow with 3 wolves and only four innocents.

Valier · 07-05-2006, 12:16 PM

Ummm I thought there are eight of us left in the village? If we lynch an Ordo today, we loose another during the night then there is six. Then the roles are tied at three and three. Does the game not end when it gets there?

JennyHallu · 07-05-2006, 12:20 PM

There are nine villagers, not eight.

Mithalwen · 07-05-2006, 12:20 PM

I did a flow chart while I was at work ( can't log on but scribbling on print out paper looks industrious

and it didn't take lomg..) and the only possible village win scenario is a hat-trick..starting now.

Eomer of the Rohirrim · 07-05-2006, 12:21 PM

Nine villagers, I believe.

Mithalwen · 07-05-2006, 12:23 PM

Glirdan is listed as both living and dead......

But I think we are truly eight.

Eomer
Kit
Kuru

Jenny's vote again. She effectively had the decision thrust upon her (if we are to totally dismiss the possibility that Kuruharan might change his mind). Nogrod or Eomer, Nogrod or Eomer. She votes one way or the other and pretty much dooms one of the individuals. How on earth can you read that as a throwaway vote? What possible meaning can that term have if you are to define it thusly?

If you agree that Kuru was unlikely to change his mind as suddenly as Jenny did, then she voted for someone already going to die. We don't have double lynches in this game, and Nogrod reach the highest number of votes first. Her vote made no difference in the outcome, she might as well have voted for someone she actually thought was guilty then one of two people she wasn't sure about. After all, you chose not to get involved with Form and Glirdan. Why couldn't she have done the same?

Roa_Aoife · 07-05-2006, 12:26 PM

Jenny's right, we have 9 villagers, so it's 6-3. Technically we could lynch an innocent to day and still survive, but we would have to lynch a wolf tomorrow for certain, or we lose. But Mith is right in one repect- to win we have to pull a hat-trick as early as tomorrow. It's a risk I'd rather not take, since the wolves have been rather good at avoiding us up till now. That someone would suggest it's okay for us to lose another innocent makes me rather uncomfortable.

EDIT: Cross-posted. Never mind, Mith's right. Oh dear...
