I believe what Agan was trying to get at is saying it looks like you're trying to play the newbie card, but that would be looked at as suspicious, so you're attempting to imply it...or in other words she's doubting your use of your newbie status as meaning you're an innocent trying to get the feel for things.

It appears I just closed a tab with my almost finished long post on it. I seems I'll have to redo it.

I've seen a couple of comments referring to Ilya's vote as a bandwagon vote, and I felt that I should point out that it wasn't.
Legate had three votes. Eonwe and Gwath each had one. There were only two Reps left to vote. (Ilya and I) Therefore the only way our votes could have resulted in an outcome is if we both agreed to vote either Eonwe or Gwath and double lynch them along with Legate. First- there was no chance of that (I wouldn't have agreed to it). Second, it wouldn't have been a good idea in the first place. So, the conclusion- Both Ilya and I had no true chance to vote yesterday, for the actions of the voters who came before us rendered our votes useless. Say what you wish about her playing the "Newbie card". You could be right. But I see no reason to think about her vote. She didn't actually vote.

Twining's Traditional Afternoon would be my suggestion or maybe Lady Grey...

I'm not that much into rooibos - for some reason I always drink it when I'm about to get a cold, and now my mind links it to being sick. But blueberry rooibos sounds rather interesting since I love blueberries.
If I had had Lady Grey, I would probably have taken it, but now I have to do with some strange African tea which is good but tastes a bit like corn flakes. I am going to review Nerwen's posts now.

Tea is a good idea. I've heard that it's harder to find WWs when you're thirsty.
I hope morm's having a good time watching his team. It's a tight game. They trail 14-10, but have the ball inside the ten. As for your team Boro... ![]() But it's okay, it's just one year. I'm sure MU will rise again.

I'm going to end this debate on my half right here with that. Quote:
To other matters then, reading the thread forwards.... The fact that Gil didn't vote for a representative (or actually post other than that short row with Shasta) looks like he's an innocent. I suggest he should not be lynched. Had he a role he would have been a lot more engaged says my experience with him. Hah, figure this: Nogrod is saying we should leave a submarine alive on the first Days! ![]() But really, he doesn't have a role and couldn't care less it seems. So let's not waste a vote on him as he will still count on the tables and if this game turns out bad in the later stages we will need him as a number on our side even if he didn't post... Some people seem to keep on questioning the rationale behind my vote for Boro as a rep so let me state this (once again ![]() Remember that those decisions are the ones we can actually read afterwards when we're getting some solid information (eg. the first wolf dies, someone breaks a tie in favour of a known wolf in a suspicious manner, etc...). In this game only the representatives vote so we'll have a bunch of wolves there being just too happy not to be cast into the light of the scrutiny following from being a representative - or they could be forced to make decisions they'd rather not do. I'm not saying Boro is one of those who wishes to lurk in the shades. Hah, anything but that. But what I'm saying is that we should use the representative-roles also as a way of looking at how people behave and what kind of mark they leave during these first Days when we can afford it. Those decisions can be read afterwards when we have some real knowledge. Yes, but he could get me lynched you say? Yes he could. But I do think we should be ready to make certain sacrifices if that would help the village win *. Although I must say that looking at Boro's posting toDay looks better - and I have myself cooled down to be sure living some RL in between last night (RL) and this. So whatever way this turns out I think I made a good choice. Nerwen's gigantic task of going through the discussion between myself and Boro made me first think she was trying to be a bit too helpful without actually contributing anything (and morm actually commented on that as well) but then I realised that if I had time in my hands and were not a party to the debate I might have done the same thing... So I don't think we can actually make a point on that. I find it interesting that Boro backs tp up with saying "killing McCaber was not something tp would do - and tp says that killing McCaber doesn't smell like Boro... Paraphrasing Ilya *consider some eyebrows raised* I need to take a break now. I'll see if Greenie or Lommy wishes to post meanwhile. * and winning that way would be beautiful indeed...

With my inability to properly resolve the story I'm trying to write by deadline, I can't say I won't join you.
I fully intend to write poetry for tonight's narration. Fiction just ain't happening right now. So give me something fun to poeticise pretty please, village.

Despite going with Boro and such, I think you've been more independent than many new players are. I've seen many newbies pick some player whose opinions they trust almost blindly throughout the whole game, which you don't at least seem to do. Quote:
![]() Now back to Nerwen. I never get my analyses done because I become bored and refresh the thread every now and again.

Sorry guys, I'm really just too tired to post anything now. I'm going to bed. I would have had the energy to post an hour ago, but no can do - three people playing WW on one computer has its disadvantages and so on. We'll see toMorrow, and good luck to the reps.
Good night and Night.

Okay, I've been doing some errands and chores today and I actually haven't watched my football game yet, I'm leaving soon to watch it (recorded). I haven't caught up on the thread but I have skimmed a bit. Ilya and Nogrod are beginning to catch my eye a bit more but Nerwen still will get my vote. She is playing very smart and I'm fairly confident we have one on our hands here. Anyway I will try to catch up later, hopefully before voting time but it is doubtful.
++Lynch Nerwen I think the more the Boro/Nog thing goes on the more I'm inclined to believe Nog a wolf. Boro is bringing up some good points as well as others. I also would like a further look at Ilya. She is wise and very smart and it is showing in how she plays. I am beginning to not trust her and no more will I give her the newbie benefit of the doubt.
