Sorry, must remember to put in one "t".Hhm, maybe you are the werebear/lover that killed Kitanna because she was too small and it bugged you?

i shall not be here for the rest of the evening, come see pink oliphaunts on parade (RL Halloween festivities).

i'm torn between voting for Fareal and Valier. Valier because she already has a vote and i would like to see if ther is anything to the Valier/Jenny squabble.
Fareal, well because it's never fun to be suspected so vehemently by someone with a "first day" hunch. I'm afraid that the only thing that will come of either of our deaths is that we are proven not to be lovers.

On one hand, if Fareal was wicked he could've killed me last night, but on the other it's sometimes easier for a wicked person to hide in the open by going after one person with bulldog tenacity.

While rereading I found nothing special, but grew less suspicious of Durelin and more suspicious of Lhuna.

Of Lhuna I can't provide an exact quote, but she kind of fell from the almost trustworthy-category to the not-maybe-evil -category while I reread her triple-post.

And ooh, there are more votes left than I thought. Things might get more interesting yet...

The fact itself that she says this plus the way she says it somehow make me think that she's probably innocent after all.

A vote to come very soon, not yet sure for who, though...

EDIT: xed with Kath

Thinlómien · 10-31-2006, 04:33 PM

I keep having my eye on a suspicious gentleman called

++Macalaure

though I feel my case will seem too feeble to others to get him lynched. So, this is more kind of a principle-vote. *sigh*

Of others I considered voting morm too, but he seems a bit less suspicious to me than Mac.

I might have voted Jenny or Valier too if I had heard more of them. Speak up, you two please. This applies Rikae too, of whom I must say is really unfair if she's a baddie.

And I wouldn't be so sad to see Farael or Holby dead either.

Now, it's anyway out of my hands for toDay. Let's hope it's a baddie who dies toDay, otherwise we'll be in a big bad trouble.

Good N/night!

JennyHallu · 10-31-2006, 04:39 PM

I need to vote...a friend's coming over and I don't know how long she'll be here.

++Holbytlass

She just seems the least like her usual self.

There it is! That's what was missing, the famous Lommy flip-flopping. Are we getting a reason for this one?

I'm hopping off for good now. Let's hope we have a better Night of it and wake up to more innocents than evils.

Macalaure · 10-31-2006, 05:01 PM

Farael -> Holbytlass
Holbytlass -> Valier
Kath -> Farael
Thinlómien -> Macalaure
JennyHallu -> Holbytlass(2)

Five votes for four people already. Keep in mind we have six baddies! The more we spread the votes, the more power we give to them.

It's getting late and I need to vote now. Though I would prefer voting Lommy, I don't want to add another name. I'm less suspicious about Farael and Holby at the moment.

++Valier

Her vote yesterday was strange and she did nothing to make me less suspicious today.

Fintaeph · 10-31-2006, 05:43 PM

Well, I've gone over Holby's posts, and there is certainly more to talk about than with Valier.

The day one posts seem pretty pointless, to be honest, so I'll just gloss over them. In #13, Holby posted her list of who to suspect, based on their stated occupation. Farael jumps on it and decides he wants her lynched. By the end of the day, several people have voted for Farael for his crusade (Lhuna, Rune, Morm, and Menel), and others have put him on their watch list. Holby gets no votes at all.

Today, things have heated up a bit.

In #72, Holby expresses what could be jury remorse over the lynching of Menel. Before she posts again, Farael posts that he suspects her because she defended herself. I'm happy to report he doesn't seem to have applied the same standard to me. :-)

In #79, Holby suggests the village lynch the males, as there aren't many of us left, and so a disproportionate number of us are likely evil. Feedback on the idea is generally negative. Farael particularly dislikes the idea, and Holby for suggesting it. To be honest, I wasn't particularly happy with the idea myself. :-) General feeling on the idea was that it would be unfair, and not necessarily productive (as it would take too long, seemed to be the gist).

In #87, Holby provides a brief analysis of the previous Day's voting, and the stated reasons for each vote, looking for possible conspiracies between pairs. She suggests Jenny & Valier might be working together.

Finally, a few minutes ago, Holby acts on her suspicion of Valier and votes for her, then signs off for the evening.

Over the course of today, a number of people have expressed doubts about Holby's behaviour. morm, Jenny, and Lhuna, in particular, think she may be acting a bit out of character. As I write this, Holby has two votes, one from Farael, the other from Jenny.

So, what does it all mean? Well, personally, I'm feeling a little wary of her. People who know her think she is acting strangely, and that could be significant. OTOH, I followed that reasoning yesterday, and ended up killing a friend.

Farael's vote does nothing to convince me. If he hadn't voted for her, I'd have lynched him for wasting my time two days in a row. :-)

Jenny's vote was about a gut feeling, but I can't help wonder about Jenny's potential connection to Valier, who I am really beginning to believe is a were creature of some sort.

At present, for me, Holby's behaviour doesn't rise above Farael's for suspiciousness, and I'm seriously considering voting for Valier as a result. As much as the two of them seem destined to be lynched, I can't help but feel it would be at the cost of ignoring a real and present threat.

She just seems to spread random accusations based on feelings and flips too often for my tastes...granted this is a sudden flip for me but I'm torn about Farael as I remember him a couple times as innocent and rash and well, he's being rash this game too. Holby has thrown some red flags up but if I can normally detect if she's guilty and while there are some signs I just don't get the overwhelming feeling at this point.

Sorry I haven't been able to read as much or do as much research as is normal but RL work and trick or treating with my daughter has made it difficult.

Valier · 10-31-2006, 07:43 PM

Well I get home from work and already I have votes against me.... Shame, because I am innocent, but hey I know my word won't count for anything.

My vote for Jenny yesterday was just as random as everyone elses and I think it is funny that people have thought what I posted was weird. I always post on the first day with silly posts, I hate trying to be all serious. I am still reading through everything and I will be back to share my thoughts on everyone....I better hurry the day is almost done.....(darn busy day!!)
