It's a way of looking at a few people out of a village of 18. In one post. And I did say particular things about them, though no, not 3 pages worth or anything.

I'm trying to be a better player here than my usual self so I'm trying the analysis thing. I guess it just doesn't suit me.

Yeah, pretty much. A bit more belligerent perhaps. But I think he's usually nicer as a wolf anyway.

So yeah, definitely moving on from Nogrod...just need to find the time.

Thinlómien · 03-18-2009, 07:40 PM

Aiee I should vote soon, it's dreadfully late here.

Thinlómien · 03-18-2009, 07:42 PM

Okay

++Lariren

I considered voting her before and she just does not seem to innocent to me. Her bantery posts don't look too good. She should know better.

I'm surprised if she's a wolf though.

Oh well, it's Day1...

edit: xed with Legate who should shut up because it's almost 4am here...

So you're voting for her because she bantered for the first three pages just like Nienna, phantom, sally, and I all did. That makes sense. You claim she should know better but so should everyone else. That seems highly suspicious in my opinion.

That analysis is coming shortly. I got dragged away to watch my friends' air band play.

But...phantom and Sally aren't playing in this game.

This is a constant frustration for me. If you think someone is guilty, okay, vote for them. But don't go saying "I think they're guilty somehow but I don't think there a were...whatever." At least have a backbone if nothing else.

Of course the consensus thing bothers me, too. But no one's done the old "well who are you voting for" thing yet so it hasn't quite gone that far.

I've really lost my steam here.

And ohhhh yeeaaaah the deadline is in like...35 mins-ish? This should be interesting.

(Edit: Crossed with Mira and Izzy)

Hence "precedes," my dear. Just because it hasn't happened yet doesn't mean that it won't.

Now who is here till 3 AM...

All right, but I should just vote and go. Great. Hmm...

Legate of Amon Lanc · 03-18-2009, 07:45 PM

I don't consider her very guilty. Not even particularly suspicious. In fact, I sort of hope that she won't get lynched.

++Durelin

But let's call that just an experiment.

I'd say I am offended except that I only sort of hope so, too. This game is distracting me a bit too much from job applications and papers...

I'm not sure how i feel about someone voting for someone else as an experiment... that just bothers me... I'll wait before voting but right now I'm leaning toward Legate.

Brinniel · 03-18-2009, 08:06 PM

Okay, I don't have any strong vote candidates in mind so I shall look back at earlier posts. Hopefully I'll make it by deadline; my internet is being incredibly slow for no reason.

Nerwen · 03-18-2009, 08:14 PM

Hello, everybody!!

Sally, do I still have a vote?

EDIT: x'd since Lommy.

Thinlómien · 03-18-2009, 08:07 PM

I smell a consensus that precedes a bandwagon...

Good night and Night!

edit: xed with Brinn

Thinlómien · 03-18-2009, 08:08 PM

Maybe if you have no idea who is... I suspect Lari more than most.

Isabellkya · 03-18-2009, 08:14 PM

Why would you vote for someone whom you didn't think was guilty, and didn't want them to be lynched?

What kind of experiment are you doing?

234 Rikae >> Nogrod (1)
237 Macalaure >> Gwathagor (1)
253 Mithalwen >> Lariren (1)
254 Kath >> Brinniel (1)
288 Lariren >> Durelin (1)
289 Nogrod >> Durelin (2)
300 Lommy >> Lari (2)
301 Legate >> Durelin (3)
304 Gwath >> Legate (1) (does it count if it isn't bolded?)

X'd with Brinn x2.

Gwathagor · 03-18-2009, 07:54 PM

Suspicious
Rikae
Nogrod
Sally!

Sort of Suspicious
Legate
Durelin

Un-Suspicious
Nerwen
Shasta
Thinlomien

Innocent
Fea
Brinniel

If I HAD to guess, I'd say that Nogrod might be a cobbler, although he has been making sense. Legate's vote for Durelin looks pretty bad to me, but I don't think that a clever wolf would do anything quite that obvious. If I haven't mentioned anyone, it's because I really don't know.

Oh yikes, I have to run to a theatre meeting. I don't know if I'll make it back before DL, so here's my vote:

++Legate

Mirandir · 03-18-2009, 08:32 PM

Rikae -> Nog
Mac -> Gwath
Mith -> Lari
Kath -> Brinn
Lari -> Durie
Nog -> Durie
Lommy -> Lari
Legate ->Durie
Gwath -> Legate (not bolded)
Mira -> Lommy
Izzy -> Lari

Lari and Durie- 3, Nog, Gwath, Brinn, Legate, Lommy - 1

Feanor of the Peredhil · 03-18-2009, 08:39 PM

++Brinn

Self preservation. On a meta-level. And now...

By a sleep to say we end the heartache...

One can hope...

Nienna · 03-18-2009, 08:44 PM

++ Legate

His vote as an experiment bothered me... experiments are controlled environments where only one variable has been changed... this is nowhere near being a controlled environment. Sorry i just went all psych major... Now as long as no one confuses correlation and causation we should be fine.

Hmm, k, trying to read and nothing is going into my brain

. So I will vote now. I don't want to add any more names into the mix so here are the votes so far:

Lari and Durie- 3, Brinn and Legate - 2, Nog, Gwath, Lommy - 1

So, for the most part I'm not overly suspicious of any of them, most of them actually I don't really have a read on at all, but I need to vote so here it goes, hopefully it all works out:

++Legate

I'm being honest when I say that this vote is not as founded on any suspicion as I would like.

Good luck everyone, hopefully I'll be back to this insanity toMorrow.

For making the game so much more interesting... I was kind of thinking of voting Durie because of her possible wolf-slip... only now I don't think I can... Oooo, what an exciting dilemma!
