I could vote for you today and pull together a big mock-fight tomorrow to make the evil ones at night believe it's worth keeping you alive?

The benefit would be two-fold, it would save me from making a disastrous decision at the end for the ruin of all and it would certainly be helping you out. What say you?

But what if people thought you were serious and decided to lynch me?

Based on probability we'd probably have just a good of a chance of finding a furry one amongst those 4 than the 4 of the Gwath suspectors I talked about. And at least those 4 would be talking.

Based on probability... Well true but I'm not doing it anyway. It'd feel unfair.

xed with Bowie. So it's now
Brinn: ++Agan

To avoid a mass cross voting,

Sorry dear, this was a hat pull of the non-posters. Happy holidays and best wishes, no hard feelings.

Edit: crossed with Strongbow and Agan

OK, I'll vote now, despite my lack of anything really solid to go on.

After Gwathagor made the bear accusation earlier, Ilya mentions that Bowie is "up to something" and also mentions suspicion of Gwath, but lets the latter slide.

I don't think Strongbow has done much that warrants suspicion, and I agree that Gwath tends to make suspicious comments regardless of whethjer or not he actually turns out to be evil. Ilya does seem a bit suspicious, and I also don't like how Aganzir flip-flops on several different people (including Ilya). I get the sense that she is trying to cast suspicion on others, yet making it appear otherwise.

For now, I'll vote for

++Aganzir

Well, I'm back.

You know, it's funny to read almost everyone voicing suspicion of me but no one's voted for me. (When is the deadline, btw? Gollum?) I'm like the electric car.

As to my cleverly worded suspicion of Gwath, if I voice a thing I don't see how it gives me any denyability later. I am suspicious of him, but because I couldn't find any textual evidence - I mean, I brushed the whole you're a werebear thing off as a Day 1 ribbing - I know myself well enough to know it's because I'm leaning on other people.

Bowie: All right then, young sir, I meant no offense. It's my job to ask questions 'bout loud players I don't know. There's talk of strange folk abroad. Can't be too careful.

So, Brinn is gone unless Menel's vote got in over the deadline. I'm going ++Brinn to just be sure there's no double-lynch...if I'm under the deadline, that is.

Argh! What is wrong with me? Every single flipping Day 1 I just miss! I'm assuming this post is outside the deadline as it's 12am my time and that's definitely outside 10pm.

I will be around toMorrow, I apologise for toDay.

I'll say this again: I was not accusing Strongbow. That was a piece of early Day 1 banter and did not reflect any serious suspicions on my part.

Anyway, I think I missed the deadline. We were out taking Narnia pictures in the snow.

Gollum probably won't count my vote, but out of principle and hurt feelings:

Told you so.

Which is why I chose to join this game even though I knew my heart wouldn't be entirely into it with the holidays interfering. I figured I'd get lynched early in whatever next game I played, and I wanted it to occur at a time when I wasn't feeling completely devoted. Quite honestly I'm not a huge loss, since I don't think I would've had much time to contribute anyway. I just hope you guys don't continue to lynch me "just in case" for every game following...otherwise it'll no longer be fun for me.

P.S. Just for future reference, I'm not always a baddie. You're just lucky I'm not the seer.

P.P.S. I am dead...right?

Btw Ilya, if that's a vote, it doesn't count unless it's on a separate line...at least that's the typical rules. But it doesn't matter because Agan has two votes and I have three, I think.

Gollum the Great has just left Hobbiton.
With the roles sent out late, multiple players unaware that the game had started (or thought it began with a night), and Christmas doings being attended to, I will consider all posts as within the reaches of the day phase.

Brinn to be slain soon. Description will follow soon....
