Werewolf LIII: The Republic - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Kath · 11-15-2008, 03:40 PM

Ah I'm so sorry for being so late. We changed to Sky internet recently and it just keeps messing us around. I got spectacularly lost this morning thanks to the lack of internet and it's only just clonked back in in the last half an hour. So, hello! And wow to being a Rep. Guess you guys really went for the getting the quiet ones to talk strategy eh? Anyway, I am going to be around now for a few hours but I have a fair amount to catch up on as all I've done is review who the Reps are so far so I'll be quiet for a bit and then I'll be back with some thoughts.

Thoughts on people:

Shasta - I really do think he's a frustrated innocent. The last time I remember him being this cross he turned out to be a good guy and I don't think he's the type to use that as a ploy. I know what people mean about him talking a lot but somehow not getting anything from those posts. It's like . . . he's there but you almost don't remember it. However, I don't think that's a bad thing because there is substance in those posts and that means that if he is killed because a wolf thinks it's safe there is often a lot of information to be gained if you then go back and look at them.

phantom - Noisy! So, so noisy. And I can never fully trust him. Actually even with the full and certain knowledge that he was an innocent I doubt I'd fully trust him! As it is though I find myself not bristling at every comment which is how I usually am. That does make me feel more confident in the fact that he might be innocent.

morm - he's flown under my radar a bit but I suspect that's because he's one of these that makes quite long posts and my currently slightly limited time does force me to skim read a bit so I'm probably just missing the substance that he is putting in there. Ooh, though actually he did say that thing about phantom being overly silly. My feeling on that is that if phantom is playing up he's not anything that matters.

Brinn - now I'm not convinced about Brinn. She's one I really do want to take a close look at.

Ilya - surprisingly another one I haven't got much from. Her name has been bandied about all over the place and she's a presence and yet I don't feel to have any kind of read of her.

Sally - pretty quiet actually. Where are the mad posts we're used to? That's a bit odd I must say.

Nerwen - again another I've not got anything on. This is really quite bad. I knew I'd been rushed but I hadn't realised that I'd missed out whole people!

Gwath - as I recall I feel pretty good about Gwath. Oh maybe not actually, that bit about maybe voting for himself was odd.

Ka - her usual self I think, playing around, which again makes me feel pretty good about her.

Boro - ah Boro. I'm suspicious of him. I'm not sure why, it's a bit like yesterDay where I skimmed the thread and just came to the immediate conclusion that Greenie and Eonwe were wolves. There's no actual reason but still it feels right. My problem with feeling like that about Boro is that I'm just always suspicious of him in the early Days so I'd be inclined to take that conclusion with a pinch of salt.

Lommy - do you know what I'm still alright with her. I think I'm turning into Rune, decide what a person is early on and then just damn well stick with that conclusion til the bitter end! The arguments with her and Agan paint her in a good light I think because she remains pretty calm and if she does react it's usually after pretty intense provocation!

Nog - Now this is a really bizarre thing ... I have no opinion on him, and that's just unheard of with me and Nog. I suspect it's because I think he's innocent and I can't bear to believe that! But there you go.

Legate - ah what to do about Legate? I read one post I think he's innocent, I read the next I think he's guilty. I'm going to have to reserve judgement on him for now.

Agan - she is very, very determined this game. Thing is I do play with Agan a fair amount and yet she always seems slightly separate somehow. I don't have any understanding of her usual style of play. Is this ... well, almost persecution of a person like with Lommy normal with her?

Eonwe - we know my feelings on that, I'm going to run through his posts in a minute and see if I can work out why.

Greenie - see Eonwe!

Rune - seems his usual self at the moment. I'm feeling alright about him.

Right I think I've worked out how I feel about almost everyone. Anyone I said I want to take a closer look at I will be posting that up soon. I'm doing it as I go but there are a LOT of pages to get through!

Then you read this post and you find out he was lynched yesterDay!

x-ed with this page- forget what I said above.

Kath · 11-15-2008, 05:07 PM

Yeah yeah Lommy already mentioned that Eonwe.

Anyway:

++EONWE

My mind hasn't changed since my last post. I dislike voting on the basis of a feeling but my suspect list basically goes Eonwe, Greenie and then Gwath but I'm not sure about him.

Boromir88 · 11-15-2008, 05:10 PM

Don't worry Lommy, I have absolutely no idea what I'm going to do right now either, I just know what innocent looks like, not wolfishness.

Kath · 11-15-2008, 04:51 PM

Brinniel:

1: Had some really good ideas about how many Reps there ought to be in relation to the number of villagers.

2: Mentions that Shasta mentioned her a lot. Hmm not sure about that. I mean it's playful but I could see Brinn being a bold enough wolf to bring herself into the limelight a bit.

3: Hmm, talked about who should be a Rep 'someone between loud and quiet'. Makes sense, it's who I've been going for each Day. This post strikes me as really quite innocent actually.

4: Seems quite surprised about becoming Rep. I can understand the feeling! Looks at those who voted for her - well not so much looks at as wonders about and comes to no conclusion.

5: Choosing between Shasta and Agan.

6: Goes for Agan because she wants more Reps than less. It's what she said at the beginning of the Day which does show consistency and that's generally good with her.

7: Explained why she voted for Agan, seems pretty sensible to me.

Ilya:

1: Good points on the weights the Reps have, it's an important idea that I suddenly remembered yesterDay right before I was about to vote for Lommy. I don't think we should give any one Rep too much power.

2: Pretty blase about Day 1, but planning to get serious. Kinda stating the obvious.

3: Bit of a silly list followed by an inconclusive statement.

4; Votes Boro with reasonable, er, reasoning!

Eonwe:

1: Doesn't really say anything, except says Shasta might be a Rep but doesn't say whether that's a good thing or not.

Around 4: Because they're all nothing-y. There's no substance. May be because he was reading through the thread and then just commenting on occasion.

5: Then he votes Greenie. If my suspicion that they're both wolves pans out then this is a very, very bold move ... I wouldn't put it past them. The reasoning behind the vote is odd 'I agree with her here, disagree on this, whatever I'll vote her'.

Greenie:

1: Well I agree with her about the leadership thing. That DW game did get boring. Again it's a fair point about not leaving opinions until the last minute but it does seem slightly stating the obvious.

2: A list ... and to be honest the conclusions seems too sure. Maybe that's what grabbed my attention, everything she says seems very certain at a time when no one should be!

3: And that's it. A vote for Brinn. There is good reasoning behind it and yet it still seems plucked out of thin air as she only mentioned Brinn the post before in a bit of a throwaway nature.

4: Mm big long post, seems like sensible posts. Damn, it really is just a feeling with her I think, I am not going to find any evidence to support my thinking on this.

I was going to look at Nerwen but upon finding her first proper post once her net connection was back up I realised that actually I think she's pretty innocent.

Well I've not finished but my battery is beginning to die and I need to be in bed within half an hour so I'm going to bring this to a close. From this readthrough I'm thinking that Brinn is looking innocent, Ilya is too. As for Greenie and Eonwe I am not clear headed enough right now to look at them with an impartial eye. Even as I read their posts I'm aware that I'm biased against them and that's a terrible way to run an analysis. That said it's Eonwe I'm more suspicious of and I think he's going to get my vote toDay.
