Well, with Fea not talking and Nerwen being a fangirl/cheerleader and Brinniel just posting one-liners, I was wondering if we'd see something quite interesting out of you, and was rather looking forward to it.

Eh, the bad part was a hunch. Or maybe just a guess. Had to put you on the list somewhere.

Yes. Trying very hard to get people to take the game more seriously.

Yes, you are posting differently now. You're still trying too hard, but in a different way.

Somehow the wording of it makes me suspect it even more; perhaps precisely? Now if you just shoot in the dark not knowing what's going on you don't use a word like "precisely" for someone else's intentions...

Yes, trying too hard is now a fair accusation.

(Edit: Crossed with Mith and Rikae...ooh, our first vote!)

There are some people for who I could justify a vote for, but I don't feel extremely comfortable with either. I think I'll vote for someone who only bantered so far. It's Nienna's first game and Miri told us she will post something worthwhile later, so they're off the hook. Unless I'm forgetting someone, this leaves Brinn and Gwath. My gut says...

I'm a bit worried about how easily Mith took over Nogrod's "lie" thing about Rikae.

Sally's requirement for Lommy was to go insane.
Was Legate's requirement to complain all the time?

You mean "Lynch Rikae or 24 players of your choice"?

Only Day1 tactic that makes moderate sense, in my opinion.

But if you look at that quote more closely you should see that Sally clearly meant there was to be requirements for all to do things they wouldn't usually do (I bolded a host of parts from that quote to make that interpretation clearer). Look and see for yourselves.

You mean Sally was inconsistent? Shocker!

Why are you worried that I pointed out that her lying (if she lied which seems moot) wasn't necessarily an indication of werebeastiality?

That does seem odd...

Bah. Nogrod, I'm sorry. I just went back and looked at your post.

That aside, I still don't think that whether or not someone has a posting requirement is indicative of evilness. As I've already said, I don't have one; neither, apparently, does Rikae. So you're wrong in stating that everyone has one. Everyone should have one? Possibly, but that's an argument you'll have to take up with our dear Modduck.
