Werewolf XXXII: The Lost Age

[Rikae]

Rikae sticks her head out the window, hair in disarray, and says with great exasperation:

"When did I ever accuse someone based on in-character banter? If you want to see someone doing that, look at Esspiem and Gil-Galad! It's exactly the reason I don't trust them."

She ducked back inside and slammed the shutters with a deafening crash.

OOC:
The fire is outside the buildings of the city; but the city itself is inside a cave, or so I gather.

(As I forgot to make my character's name related to my BD's name, plz just call my character by his nickname Sixth instead.)

Anyways...

Already jumping to 'I don't trust...'? I think this is a bit early to be pointing and accusing.

So here we are stuck like rats in a village. And even better, now one of us has a SWORD. . I don't have much experience on a game like this so I can't really make a plausible suggestion right now, but maybe back up others. . .

Somehow I think this may be a bad idea. And it kinda defeats the purpose of votes not being shown. Vampires can still lie about a vote they might have made instead of actually make one.

Bye...

[Boromir88]

Well Menel and Sauce...like I said it today is a special day for me (tis my birthday). So I would particularly find it a shame if the vampires kill me tonight. But it really doesn't matter if they want to kill me any other night, that's their choice.

Now that is said this will likely be my last visit until the morning as I must be off at least day dreaming about what amazing celebration I should be receiving right now. Seeing as I'm stuck in this cave though, I guess I only have my imagination.

For some quick comments...I think Sauce's idea (regarding the votes) is a good one, no complaint from me, but still there will be at least 3 amongst us who will be lying.

Sauce, Gil, and Aganzir, don't really worry me right now. I like Gil's nice eye regarding Sleepy. So far Sauce and Aganzir look genuine to me.

Like I mentioned, Legate seems too nice and a little to quick to buddy up with our Sir Espiem.

I'm wondering about Brinniel too...I mean she comes in here kind of acts confused and lost like 'what the heck is going on.' This establishes her presense in this little 'game,' and it looks like she's playing up the 'confused' role. From my records, I have not had the pleasure of seeing Brinniel's ancestors yet in one of these situations, but her family has a few of these werewolf/vampire villages under her belt...this confused thing seems a bit fake if you ask me.

Also, a comment by Shastani is rather awkward:

"Calm, you two... this early on, I doubt there's much of anything in the way of evidence to go on. There's no real point in accusing each other when there's no proof of guilt or innocence whatsoever."

I think accusations reveal the character of a person, and I find accusations to be about as helpful as anything (besides blind luck) on Day 1. I find accusations to be a good thing, so I think it's awkward Shastani, you are telling us to not do it.

Some of my observations, make of them what you all will. Now I must be off and dreaming that I'm having a wonderful sweet bourbon salmon at an amazing 5-star restaurant with my mother and father. So, bye bye.

Edit: x-ed with The Sixth

[Legate of Amon Lanc]

After a long time of coming and going with new wood Legate finally left for the last time, appearing a few minutes later dragging a large wooden table across the stony cave floor. The sound of dragging echoed the whole cave. At one moment, the table jerked and with all its weight one blockfoot fell on Legate's toe. The man screamed and with all effort threw the table away from himself so it fell on one side.

Legate let it be and came near the fireplace where he sat down, took off one of his wooden sandals and started examining his foot.

"There's quite enough of wood, but it's better to be prepared. Who knows if the Oracle does not suddenly choose to leave us here without wood supply. I'd be also careful about food and if possible, leave something until the next meal. Assuming it does not become wormy."

Legate took his sandals back on and looked around. "I heard bits of what you spoke about here, I was also thinking a little bit. But it's still plenty time till Oracle's deadline and many of us haven't showed yet. Oh, first, Boro, Espiem is a good guy, at least in picking the locks, but don't think I wasn't checking him over my shoulder. He's in the storeroom now. But what I heard in your discussions here... now...

Six? I don't see why you think it isn't a good idea. Unless you want to bluff, which as I said I think an innocent villager has no need to, you shouldn't worry about it. After all, as best "voting list" as we can get is, I think, only for the good of the village. I don't see any disadvantage there.

Well I think we'd agree that without accusations we'd get nowhere. However, the ones who care the most on getting someone under any suspicion are the Vampires. So I find Shastani's comment rather in place, or at least I see it "unharmful". It's good in my opinion not to give too much into feelings or first sights and so on on the first day, because we don't know anything yet, basically. Of course accusing is needed, but not just headless.

For now, if I was to say that I am watching any of you folks more than the others, it would be probably ** Six for the comment above. It's quite a lot of us around here, I have to say, and many of us aren't saying much* so it's hard to conclude something... Otherwise I'll keep my eye on the places where it already "boiled" like Gil, Rikae, Espiem...

But now I am sorry, but I am quite dead from all the wood-carrying. I need to take a rest." With these words, Legate set out a bedroll he brought from one of the houses and laid near the bonfire. "Remember," he said yet, "keep feeding the fire. I wouldn't sleep longer than eight hours... but probably right after I wake up, I'm going to look around for some more useful things... so don't count on me until much... longer..."
With these words Legate fell into a deep and dreamless sleep.

*Apart from roleplay, which I like very much and of course do that as well, and of course it's just the first Day... but it'd be good to also try to keep at least some gaming info even in the roleplay posts...

So here is where the fools have gathered? How lovely that there are so many of you in one place. You can be as stupid as you'd like, but I have a problem with people always adding their own crap to my pile.

In other words - stay away from me, and I won't mistake you for a Vampire.

Oh, yeah...you Vampires? Yeah, you. You listen. I bet you think you have it easy. And maybe you're right - you may not get any say in who we take out, but you know as well as I do that we innocents excel at slitting our own throats... *glances at Brinniel* or wrists.... But you know what? You're no different from them, even with your silly powers.

So go slaughter some goats and leave me the hell alone.

[xyzzy]

Xyzzy walks toward the river. Pulling a sharp stone from the middle, he drys it on his shirt and walks over to the wood pile, whistling a merry tune. Grabbing a long piece of wood, he begins to sharpen an end of it. Over the time of about an hour, he begins to sharpen it. When he is satisfied with the end of the staff, he begins smoothing the rest of the stick. He walks over to the fire, shouting, "Got us a knife!" Seeing the strange looks he receives, he says, "Err, maybe it's a sword... or something, but... anyway, give me about a year and I could probably make a [OOC: insert something ancients would have that can do fingerprinting.] out of grass!"

*Appears from the shades* ahh yes it defeats the idea, but it is up to us to decide which idea we like the most and want to make a "rule".

hmmm I forget can women and vampires vote here? if not and we are told the number of votes for each individual it would actually be possible to make a system that would be helpful of catching vampires. . .

*goes back into the shades*

EDIT: I forgot to disapear again. . .

[Celuien]

Kitanna: As I read the rules, I thought that each of the three vampires had one of those gifts - one vampire with the powers of a Seer, one with the powers of a Ranger and the last with the Hunter's skills.

The Shade is also interesting. There's absolutely no way to know which side that particular one will be siding with.

So that's three non-voters who are going to be lying and one enigma.

[Meneltarmacil]

Hmm, I must say that Rikae doesn't seem to be creating a lot of trust for me at the moment. She comes up with a meta-explanation and then tries to shift the blame onto Gil-Galad. Not that I'm inclined to think of Gil as absolutely innocent, but given the erratic style he usually uses, he makes a good scapegoat.

I'll probably vote for Rikae toDay.

[Diamond18]

Hey.

Well, I'm overwhelmed, but then I always am when I've got two pages worth of posts to read through. It all ends up blurring together and I can rarely form suspicions because I'm too busy trying just to get through it all. I'll read it over again. I will be voting within the next two hours and then I have to be going. I won't be back before day end.

Honestly, I don't really feel like announcing who I vote for. Make of that what you will.

[Rikae]

Rikae saunters out of the doorway, smoking a cigarette (hey, Rikae doesn't smoke! Shhh...).

And what's that got to do with the price of a plane ticket to Germany?"
Rikae sat down on an overturned pillar beside the fire and poked idly at the embers with a stick.
"It seems I've stirred things up a bit. Which was exactly my intention."
She looked Nogrod in the eyes. Metallica songs ran through her mind.
"If you wish to lynch me, so be it. But I will have my say.
I tested the waters with a bantering accusation of Mac and a only slightly serious one of Esspien. Esspien responded with what appeared to me as excessive defensiveness, while Gil-Galad (and Menel) thought me suspicious for 'suspecting two people', when clearly, I was not serious in my suspicion of Mac" ...she paused and glanced at Mac with a smile and a .... "I've done what I can, at this early hour, to reveal the wolves. A lot of thanks I get for my troubles, too."
She tossed the cigarette butt into the flames, unfolded herself, stretched and wandered off into the darkness.

[Rikae]

OOC - rather, Menel thought me suspicious for suspecting Gil, though he admits Gil looks suspicious. This should send warning signals to anyone...but ...bah. Go ahead. Lynch me.
I am the weaver!

[Celuien]

I must say, being fashionably late is rather fun.

Before I made it here, I had been wandering about and just thinking things over. It seemed to me that the secret voting can complicate things for the village. Because there's no way to confirm the outcome of the vote until the following day even if, as has been suggested, we post our votes here on the village notice board. The vampires are, of course, lying since they can't vote. And there might be a couple of legitmate strategic reasons for a villager to post an undecided "vote" early. For example, it seems to me that since the vampires can't vote, they would have to be more vocal in trying to deflect village opinion, so that an early decoy vote might be thrown out to test the waters...much as retractable votes have been used strategically.

In any case, I'll be posting my votes here. It's still the only way the village has to coordinate strategy (at least down the road when there's more to go on), and I agree that some sort of voting record would be useful for analysis later, even if the votes that counted can't necessarily be confirmed.

And if anyone sees a frog hopping about, please let me know. I seem to have lost my poor Ribbits on my way here.

[Kitanna]

I have been reading, but haven't really had a chance to read into what is being said, if you know what I mean. Thus far I have seen little to rise my alarm about anyone, but I do have some concerns about the voting.

Obviously it has been quite the topic already, but I'm a bit worried about this being a double-edged sword. Though the vampires have no vote and will clearly be lying about who they voted for (should SpM's plan be followed), I wonder if others will not lie as well. It seems unlikely, but unless I've read the rules wrong the vampires have a seer, a ranger, and a hunter on their side, correct? All of those folk receive votes, as does the shade. That's four votes that the voter could lie about to the village. Revealing our votes is a good idea, but I'm a bit hesitant given the amount of people who have the potential to lie about it and screw with the village.

I have to run, but I'll be back, hopefully with more solid ideas/facts.

So clearly, sha's saying that these gifteds, while on the side of the vampires, have votes (which means they are not vampires themselves).
I still don't know whether to chalk it up to misunderstanding, though.

Don't worry Mac, you do not kill the girl that does the flirting, you kill the person she is flirting with instead of you.

On a more seriouse note, my problem with this thing is that it is hard to get an overwiev of things with so many people here. . . Even when you have been lurking in the dark as I. What I do get is a few people that seems inoccent and non that stands out as evil doers. So genneral confusion would be the best way to describe my state of mind.

Well it seems pretty many people are confused, which I don't wonder at all, since I'm myself slightly confused about some things...

Roa, you're a láthspell for sure, pointing out all the bad things people (read: I) haven't realised or haven't been thinking about yet... I must say that last post of Roa's made me more comfortable about her.

celuien is in the lead with 3 votes right now...

[Diamond18]

PS - If it helps with your chart making and whatnot, I voted between posts #57 and #58 yesterDay

[Gil-Galad]

alright, found sixths post, now my defense

The person I have decided to vote for is Gil. As I said, for me at least he is very indescernable, and it is Day 1 after all. We may as well have a shot in the dark than take out a potentially valuable innocent like Nogrod or Rikae.

so i take it that you voted for me because i wasn't valuable to the group... ouch... you're breaking my heart here sixth... but what i jsut noticed is that he listed 2 other people... why those two hmmm? Sixth+Rikae+Nogrod= 3, there are 3 vampires on the lose.... do the math, it could be by chance or it could be sixth attempt to hide his comrades, luckily nobody paid any attention to this post... except me...

Hell, I don't know how to act on Day 1. Last game we got a wolf Day 1 and it was wierd after that.

wow... now you say that you don't know why you voted me, just a friendly reminder, Every Werewolf game is different, the worst thing to do is to apply what you found out of people last game and bring it here, just about everyone acts differently in every game. Just because Glirdy(using you as an example buddy) was a wolf last game doesn't mean he is going to be a wolf again this game.

Indeed. It might therefore be sensible for us not to leave our (stated) votes right up until the last minute. *Glares at Nogrod* After all, the Vampires cannot actually vote. They can only pretend to, so the strategic value of last minute voting (for innocents) is somewhat lessened.

Fair point, Noggie. Then again, I’m feeling pretty comfortable with Boro at the moment …

And, despite just having done it myself, I am not too happy with the way you are seeking to make accusations by implication, without naming names.

I will post a new Day 1 "voting record" once Kitanna and Glirdy have had an opportunity to state their votes from yesterDay (if, indeed, they voted).

Btw I rather like the new Gil.

Edit: Cross-posted with the preceding Gil love-in, to which I now appear to have contributed ...

[Nogrod]

One could look at this differently as well. At least I think I acted reasonably by withholding my vote on Celuien - which I was going to make - as she was able to post her RL reasons for her incomplete reasoning on her vote which made me to back off from voting her. Sadly it came only twenty minutes before the deadline and so we were in too much a hurry there anyway.

Who would be confident in voting early, before everyone had have their chances to say their word on issues? The vampires...

We innocents care for us villagers staying alive and thence wish to wait for any information to the end to make our decisions with good grounds (RL excuses are another thing as one will have to leave when one will have to leave).

So please Spm, do focus on things that really matter... I mean it's quite frustrating when people make points on poor grounds (and Roa as well...). Come on and be a little more serious! We do not win this game by making postures of being witty but by actually picking up the wolves / vampires.

Making claims that do not make any sense don't further our cause but hinder it. But the vampires would love to do that and would cewlebrate with anyone who were lured by them.

So think people, think yourselves. Why would someone do something?

After all, the Vampires cannot actually vote. They can only pretend to, so the strategic value of last minute voting (for innocents) is somewhat lessened.

That is true. The strategic value is lessened, to be sure. But aren't you talking here like a Vampire from who's standpoint there is not so much "strategic value" any more? To me as an innocent there is everything to win and lose as we try to get the vampires and prevent the lynching of innocents. That's why any concerned innocent wishes to stay on as long as possible and try to make the difference as I tried yesterDay, unsuccesfully though, with trying to save Celuien...

So voting early is the mark of an innocent? No way Mr. Pan-man! Quite the opposite. You are intelligent enought to see that so why do you try to make the opposite point? Just asking...

And, despite just having done it myself, I am not too happy with the way you are seeking to make accusations by implication, without naming names.

You're just marvellous... "I have done this but it actually makes X look pretty bad..." And to make it even more incredible, you comfortably do not mention the exact thing your sentence refers to... I can't defend anything you imply without first knowing what you mean but that surely looks nice, "Hey he got a point!"

I'm just wishing to see that one...

----

But after all that I must say that Spm is not my main suspicion right now. He's pretty high on my list but anyhow I might wish to see some others lynched before him.

Rikae I'm pretty wary about as well as Gil (so much that I love his new style!). And the newbie-stauts notwithstanding Shasta looks pretty suspicious too...

And all those not stating their votes yesterDay as well... I'll come back to them later as I have time for it...

And Legate... I would not stress his "niceness" as some here have done, but his carefulness. A vampire would love to look agreeable to everyone and the innocents need to do the suspecting and thence being controversial... He is doing the opposite and thence my doubts.

And well, lots of doubts... Durelin, Glirdy, Sleepy... you name it. Maybe, I hope, I have time to make some points on these sneakers later toDay. But now I think Lommy wishes to get a word in...

[Legate of Amon Lanc]

"Well, I don't have much time now," said Legate after returning from a long walk he took after he awoke. "I got to leave in about quarter an hour, and probably won't come back. Only to what's debated here now..."

Well, actually when I saw that comment, I didn't know what it is supposed to mean. Please help me, if you could, to decipher it:
Kitanna, based on how she read the rules, thinks:
-That the vampires have S&R&H
-I actually thought RECEIVE votes meant they can, you know, be voted for. But if I understood you correctly, "receive" here stands here for "are given their own paper to throw into the ballot box"
-So four people can vote and lie at the same time.

I don't understand why to vote for her based on this. I wouldn't say this, even if it is as you say, raises any alarm. It might or might not be a mistake, but if it was intentional, why would she want to say that? I don't get it.

Ten minutes... then I'm leaving, sorry..."

EDIT: x-ed since Nogrod

[Legate of Amon Lanc]

Legate was quickly packing his things. "I'm going to explore some further parts of the cave. I already stopped by at the Oracle and gave him my vote. Since you have spoken all very much when I slept and I didn't have chance to think of everything of it seriously to think any of you more guilty than the other, I had to stick with my primary suspicion, which was Six." Legate threw the last of his newly-acquired possessions into the bag and waved. "Don't worry, I'll be back. Just don't kill each other when I'm away. See you tomorrow." With these words, he disappeared to the darkness far from the fire's light.

[Roa_Aoife]

At this point, I'm rather torn between voting Nogrod, Celuien, and Rikae.

Nogrod- for his fabricated case against Rikae. Even if she is evil, it could very easily be a Vamp on Vamp play, especially since there's no truth to it whatsoever. Nogrod could also rest easy knowing that with out his vote, she wouldn't be in trouble.

Celuien and Rikae - both for falling into Eomer's trap, and extra to Celuien for discrediting the plan while agreeing to it at the same time.

Legate is also irking me a bit, but I can't come up with a logical reason why. It may be the "too nice" thing that was previously mentioned, but until I can put my finger on it, I'll leave it be, and just watch him more closely. (If I don't get lost with the incharacterness of his posting.

I've decided to ease my suspicion of Gil, but only for now- it's not the first time he's been innocent with, at best, highly confusing cases.

Seeing as when I do a search on that word I get entries for Gandalf, I'll happily take that as a compliment.

Edit: Cross posted with the last three.

[Nogrod]

First those I have some ideas already.

I think I'm trusting Boro and Mac enough toDay. They have both spoken wisely and contributed to our cause. They are both men cabable of doing the very same thing were they villains but with these grounds ("a vampire might have done that as well") I'm not ready to suspect them more than necessary toDay.

Spm's early self-defence got me a bit worried but that's no reason to lynch him on Day1 either. Too risky. And he said he'll be back toDay so maybe we can hear more from him.

Rikae I'm in doubt. When I got to sleep the last time I thought that I would announce openly not to vote for her toDay as she's too valuable as an innocent to us. But as I've read more toDay after that I must say that I'm not declining the possibility of voting her.

Celuien's voting-decision really bothers me. She might be the one I'll go for.

I said yesterday (RL) that I liked the way Gil plays now but he has done a lot to make me change my mind after that...

Sleepy I can't vote as there are RL reasons for his little appearance.

A few things with Roa to follow...

Edit: X'd from Legate on...

[Thinlómien]

I should be leaving soon and I don't know who to vote... probably Cel or Menel. They seem the most suspicious this far. Anyway, I'm now to check through their posts.

[Nogrod]

Roa's insistence on my suspiciousness is no news. She does it always. And like the last game she's barking at the wrong tree again. What I'm a bit worried about is that she's made even worse case on me now than she did the last time (when she was wrong as well - and an innocent being wrong!).

But as she clearly is an intelligent woman, I'm getting some doubts to my mind from her insistence yet again. An innocent looks for the best of the village, not to try and get someone lynched just because she would like to get that someone lynched.

The funny point about Roa's case this far is the following. She accuses me of lying. We'll here's the stuff:

Nogrod's blatant lying about Rikae's "blatant lying"

I would like to say, that I might accuse Roa of blatant lying about myself lying blatantly about Rikae's blatant lying... and I'm pretty convinced that I'm more to the target here than she is (well, I know it, but anyhow).

But yes. I'm not going to pursue this any further toDay. If I'm here toMorrow I might exchange a few comments with Roa then. I have better candidates toDay.

[The Sixth Wizard]

Six? I don't see why you think it isn't a good idea. Unless you want to bluff, which as I said I think an innocent villager has no need to, you shouldn't worry about it. After all, as best "voting list" as we can get is, I think, only for the good of the village. I don't see any disadvantage there.

I don't have much experience in these games, but is this what players often do on Day 1? It happened in the Unknown Enemies. . . I suppose it is a good way to get the game going, and mystery among the villagers might help the Vampires.

Oh, yeah...you Vampires? Yeah, you. You listen. I bet you think you have it easy. And maybe you're right - you may not get any say in who we take out, but you know as well as I do that we innocents excel at slitting our own throats... *glances at Brinniel* or wrists.... But you know what? You're no different from them, even with your silly powers.

So go slaughter some goats and leave me the hell alone.

Was this hostility part of your character, or did you actually MEAN it?
