Aye. This day seemed a bit too nice for me. I got the impression that were it a real battle involving weapons, they would've all been stabbing each other with wicked/creepy clown grins on their faces.

Roa was quite jumpy and hasty.

That is about all I really have to say, other than I would've liked to see how McCaber would've voted.

0.3

Aganzir leaning towards voting for Shasta is quite understandable, not out of the realm of Ag. Though I see in the future, a weapon being constructed for her, so she can truly threaten people with votes. :P

Kath seemed a bit too indecisive to me.

Order of wolfiness: Kath, Aganzir, Shasta.

0.4

Lommy, I agree with her point about McCaber waiting to make his vote, rather than rush in and hammer were he a wolf. Yet, for that reason alone does an innocent not make.

Nog, hmm I dislike how he seemed to walk into the day with the idea of voting for Might; when the trial day for all purposes was a gathering. I think that were he a true innocent, he should've walked into the day heavily suspicious of both.

Wolfiness : Lommy, Nogrod, Might.

Hmm... the above looks better to me - which leaves me in the same quandry as before.

Back from a reread of the thread, and I have a hunch. It's not much, but I'm afraid I find myself with a choice between Izzy - who looks foul in the sense of following the posts of others too much and not showing enough reasoning behind her suspicions - but feels fair, and Greenie, who looks fair but feels foul. Her persistant in-character quips, her Day 0.0 quickness to argue about things likely to be of concern to wolves - her tendency to take so long to get to the point, and the thinness of those points when held up to the light... well, I don't think this quite explains what I mean, but my gut tells me Greenie is not to be trusted.

Rikae · 01-22-2008, 01:12 PM

One thing that stands out as significant and that I had forgotten before is that Greenie's points about Nogrod were actually worded in such a way as to appear to be a suspicion, although as a suspicion it makes little sense. Therefore, there isn't really anything suspicious in Izzy bringing it up after all, and something rather suspicious in Greenie doing it in the first place.

Why I think Valier looks more wolfy than Legate?

She seemed to send out voting feelers and when they didn't pan out, she went the other direction. She stated that Menel was an easy lynch.. and for the most part I got the feeling that she was only saying that, to see what Legate thought. 1 wolf : 2 innocents, doesn't have the luxury of making the first vote in case it goes in the wrong direction. The wolf I think in most cases to survive the day, needs to make the deciding vote. When Legate seemed to not agree with her, or mention about Menel, it seems she decided she could vote for Legate, with getting Menel to vote the same.

Being it a choice between the three for wolfiness, Menel was at the bottom.. there wasn't much to get a read from, and mere placing of his vote spoke in his favor.

Legate, while I found a bit too aggresive; it was an obvious aggression which spoke in his favor. I think that a wolf would not choose to be so openly aggresive; at the chance of looking too determined for a vote.

I just realized that in my post #276, I'd written Kath where it should be Ka.

Isabellkya · 01-22-2008, 01:28 PM

While I agree on a level with interrogation methods to make a wolf blunder, there is a fine line between interrogating and going too far. (Not to say that Legate went too far, he didn't; it just brought to mind ruthless interrogating in other WW games on other forums.) Yet, innocents can slip under the interrogation scope, particularly newbie's who've never been around a game before and can get overwhelmed by the experienced players. I've seen it done. Yet here, I don't believe Valier or menel are new to the game.

Izzy, your posts ring true and your lack of defensiveness speaks in your favor. I think I'll go with my gut feeling this time...
