Ugh... Okay, well it looks like my RL schedule is getting in the way of this game again, especially today, Tuesdays are my long days, and this most likely will be my last post for awhile. So, I am probably going to have to make a vote in this one. If I am lynched for it, I really don't mind. My RL schedule is just messing this game up horribly, and I am falling behind in analyzing.

( Again, refer to my lack of free time that has been developing as of late, and my relative's death. I'm just too far behind on the wrong day. )

I guess I can give one last bit of thoughts on my mind.

I'm not going to vote immediately for Lommy, due to I understand and agree her RL, she has said in the admin thread that she would had a limit to net access this week, and I can understand this.

Here is something I've noticed, and I don't know how helpful it is, but it just seems alittle, well, too friendly...

I don't know how to put this completely, but it just seems interesting to note how whenever rune or boro explain something about their voting, they will nit pick at little details (like most people do... it's natural in a ww game), then either one will convince the other, and then it is compliments and reassurances. It just seems a bit, well, fishy. I am going to have to agree with Thinlomien about Boro, but just because someone analyzes quite alot, does not mean they can leave all ends trimmed up. Over-analyzing can seem like a fuzzy warm blanket of safety, or barrier of truth, though in this case, I think quite alot of talk is as suspicious as no activity at all...

There are no 'secret messages', because if following the poker method, they never will leave what is concluded in one's head. That I agree. You cannot trust anyone in a game of poker, the same as with ww.

Though, jumping out and saying something without much of a conclusion (over-analyzing can have not much of a conclusion too, as never saying much), is equally suspicious for wolfish behaviour, and is the same behaviour as voting for others who vote at random, as on the first day.

I am finding this plan, though I may agree with certain aspects of it, a bit too suspicious. Especially right now.

I do not have enough free time as others as to entirely write out a long, rambling post on this, but I think I have done as much as I can for now.


As I said before, Tuesday is my long day, so I will not have time to finish anything, and I completely understand voting for me on this fact. I have to leave now, and I better get my vote up, since I do not have any time to later, so...

Well, I for one belive Lommy, we are simply too clueles for a wolf to pull such a bluff.

and Celuin, I thought you were the seer. . . I then forgot that the Hunter and Ranger knew each others identety, that is why I was stupid enought to bring that subject up.

That was news, Lommy!

I was just writing something about these revealments, but now things seem to appear in a new light...

I'm all for lynching toDay one - or two! - of your candidates, namely Boro, Eonwe or Durelin. Assuming there is no way we get it totally twisted... But it looks good to my eye.

If we lynch both Eonwe and Boro toDay, with a good luck we win immediately. If not, we kill the last wolf toMorrow. And if neither of them is a wolf, then Lommy has fooled us and we lynch her toMorrow.

Nice. And we have already won, I suppose...

But we must be careful with the vote so that the wolves can't mess it up. I unfortunately have to leave an hour before the deadline or so.

Although with a second thought I'm not so sure whther we actually manage to make a double lynch toDay as Boro and/or Eonwe (were they the wolves) might twist the vote so that it reults in only one lynch...

X-d with Lommy

Boro and Eonwe would be my choises as well.

Being genraly clueless I would never build a solid case, but Durelin and Flowren is the only ones I have never considered voting for.

Maybe we should not go for the double lynch in the first place.

Two wolves may generate three votes for Rune now as he already has one. And there are only four votes then left so we can't make two of those three to top Rune's possible three votes...

I have time to drop in toDay every once in awhile, so let's think what to do.

You are absolutely completely wrong, Lommy isn't the original Seer! Gah, this is so aggravating!

Well, I've just started counting, whether we still can lose this game... But this looks good - albeit the tension is falling down a bit...

Stop getting fooled by the accursed Lommy.

Night 1 I dreamt of Nogrod
Night 2 I dreamt of Mac
Night 3 I dreamt of Durelin

Gutsy move miss Wolf, but I doubt it's going to pay off for your buddy who would be the lone wolf amongst a short list of people:

Eonwe
Celuien
Rune
The Ka

Well indeed!

If this is to be the end of us, then it is just so mind-bogglingly cunning and bold move from a wolf Lommy that I almost feel well to lose to her then and am first to admit that she has then really outwitted me...

But yes, it's possible. According to Lommy there are three unknowns of which two are wolves. If she fools us, so in the worst possible scenario we lynch an innocent toDay and another dies toNIght. Then toMorrow we lynch yet another innocent and after the next Night there are four left, two of them wolves (and surely in this scenario the other wolf besided Lommy is either The Ka or Rune) and the game is over, won by the wolves...
