Wow. First game on the site and Mnem is already wishing to fight someone.

Should we set up a cage and place bets?

Winner gets Phantom?

phantom, sweetheart, that's not how girls fight. That's just a Hollywood fabrication to bring males into otherwise boring chickflicks.

Don't you take away my dreams! It's a free country! I have a right to believe in what I want!

Phantom, darling, the prize is supposed to be something the winner would want.

the phantom · 02-27-2009, 06:09 PM

But you see, Sally, a "winner" would want that.

*snicker*

I must at this point withdraw from the game due to extreme illness, brought on by an accidental dosage of horse manure.

satansaloser2005 · 02-27-2009, 06:20 PM

By the way, I know I didn't express this plainly, so I'll tell you now.

Kath's dreams
Night One: Phantom (white pawn)
Night Two: Noggie (white knight)
Night Three: Sally (white pawn)

Then I was switched at the end of Night Three so we weren't able to communicate until last Night. Hope that clears things up a bit.

ETA: Sorry for stealing your post-game thunder, Kath, dear. Now you have no yummy secrets for the village later.

And wait- now you two are saying that we can look at other people? As in, Dury?

So I can possibly have my revenge on her after all! She played the "he's manipulating people" card on me yesterday just as an excuse to bump me off. I have so not been in control of things this game, and she knows it good and well! Grrr... I should go and prepare a biased case against her.

But it will have to wait. I have to go to a Pawns United charity dinner. They'll be discussing important issues such as discrimination against pieces of other colors, Pawn abuse, and non-violent methods of square acquisition.

(i.e. I have a RL obligation)

I shall be back for the last two hours for sure- possibly three.

This is Mordor, not the good old U. S. of A.

Question Sally.
If you were in contact with Kath like you say - then why did you follow her in lynching an innocent Hansy?

X'd since Mnemosyne's #753

At the time I hadn't been dreamed, or rather I'd been dreamed but I wasn't a gifted at the time so she couldn't PM me. And she hadn't dreamed Hansy yet, so even if I had been talking to her it would have only been our hunches, not actual information.

AND I thought he was guilty.

Why exactly is it bad to follow the seer again?

Wait. Why am I even responding to Izzy?

Might there be another gifted role?

I thought I was answering before - specifically, when I said "you actually have a good point". That's part of what made me rethink Sally - there is obviously something going on in this game I don't know about. I do know that Izzy's survival was the survival of a wolf, but that's it.

Something that did occur to me was that the black knight might have the ability to protect during a lynch under some circumstance... or, like Sally said, maybe the Black Queen had something to do with it. Izzy being evil, an evil explanation makes some sense.

The Black Queen may be involved somehow? Dunno.

Isabellkya · 02-27-2009, 06:21 PM

Mnemosyne - I fail to believe that Shasta would add in another role on a whim; because the role in question died early. I also fail to believe that Sally was intended to become a Rook at some point. It makes things off balance.

X'd with everything since my last post.

Isabellkya · 02-27-2009, 06:34 PM

I don't believe how you are laying these explanations out Sally You say one thing, then another, then a completely different other one.

Besides, you are overlooking all of the reasons in to which Rikae is lying.

X'd since my last post.. again.

I'm not contradicting, at least on my explanations. I did mess up the night on which I was 'turned' but corrected it immediately.

If Rikae's lying we'll know. She makes sense and I'm inclined to believe her based on something I saw in her posts earlier so I'll go along with it.

You're a sweet girl but I'm ignoring you now, kthnxbye. You nasty wolf you.

satansaloser2005 · 02-27-2009, 07:53 PM

Here's something I've been wondering about.

Mnemo's more than happy to point out my role to everyone (not that I'm complaining, as I was getting so darn frustrated) but other than that I can't see a whole lot that's helpful about her. She voted all three Days for the lynchee, all three of them innocent, but I don't think she's the kind to just follow a bad Izzy blindly. What do you all think about her being the Black Queen? I'm not sold on the idea, but it's worth considering, and I wanted input from the rest of you.

False. I only voted for the lynchee yesterDay.

Rikae · 02-27-2009, 08:02 PM

Oh no, Sally, not again. That got me in trouble last time.
