Okay. This is so sad.

I still dislike Agan's smilies and the explanation for them wasn't too good. But I have no intention to vote one of the only decent posters of toDay.

With Form I have a kind of similar situation. I do disagree with many things he says and I don't like all the manouvers he makes, but he posts both qualitatively & quantitatively enough for me to not wish to vote for him.

Kent is probably the only one I feel quite good right now - and he has also posted.

I see why people suspect Kuru and he might be my choice as well - although I'm afraid it will only be a cobbler we get that way. But that's not bad for Day1, or any Day.

Of the rest I might vote for anyone for just not playing this game. Out from pure annoyance and frustration.

Nienna especially. That was soo bad...

I'll take a short look back and then vote, presumably for one of the slackers.

Nienna's vote for me looks quite bad indeed. It can be shown statistically that I tend to receive well more of the "random votes" from the baddies on Day1 than would be my fair share. And Nienna's looks like one of that kind.

Her suspicion first was this:
Quote:

Then, as Form pointed out, after Form stated his vote might possibly go my way she comes up with:
Quote:

Especially that "I reserve the right to be completely and utterly wrong" strikes me very bad indeed.

Also she has posted what, three times, with basically nothing to say.

I hate it how many others will just fly through this day under any possible radar. That's unfair but can't be helped now I'm afraid.

So I'll do this:

++ Nienna (1)

then:

-- Nienna (0)

and

++ Kuru (0)

I do wonder alongside Form if Kuru would be such a reckelss cobbler, but then again it looks like it very much that he is. How else one could explain that "If you can't beat them, join them" -stuff.


So a vote for Nienna and a vote for Kuru.


I'm off to work. Make good decisions.

Yes, Noggie dear. I'll eat my vegetables, take out the trash, and go to bed on time. I've learned a lot from your example.


I think I'll look over Nienna's posts real quick and see what the fuss is about. It's possible I forgot to actually....you know....read her post when I went through the thread. I'm such a silly hobbit.

You're right - Nienna does look rather bad in light of that sequence of posts, like she's fishing for a bandwagon almost. She might just be an innocent who didn't have any better idea, but this seems a far more substantial case than any others that have been made toDay. I think I'll be voting Nienna.

Ok, I'm just going to vote now. I'm tired and have a few things to do before bed.

++Nienna

I decided that yeah, Nienna does have some furry potential. And I know she's blinking brilliant as a wolf, so I'd hate to give her a free pass for too long and then wind up dead.


++Nienna


Random question. If I don't attach any extra votes, I can just do ++name, right? Or should I put ++name(0) just to be safe?

Yeesh, I was going to say Kuru seems like the easy lynch toDay, though now it's looking like Nienna.

I really don't want to see Kuru go so early, as he is not one who comes here often and I'd actually like to experience playing with him (and only one Day is hardly playing).

I'm tempted to vote Nienna as I do agree some of her early comments do sound suspicious. Though I feel slightly hesitant with this sudden bandwagon against her. But I'd rather see her go than Kuru.

As for Agan, she doesn't strike me as innocent or evil at the moment so I really have no strong desire to see her lynched.

Votes:

Sally- 1
Agan- 2
Noggie- 1
Kuru- 5
Nilp- 1
Nienna- 4

Hmm...am I the deciding vote of the Day? Seems that way as it doesn't look like any other non-voters will show..

Part of me really doesn't want to bandwagon since I'm a bit wary of the others who are part of it, but I think I will anyway since I'd like to give Kuru the opportunity to play at least one more Day. And although I am bandwaggoning, at least I'm doing it against someone I somewhat suspect.

++Nienna (0)

I'm going to vote for Nienna based on what I previously said. Though these seeming hoppers here, make it an almost uncomfortable vote.

++Nienna (0)

Though, I'm almost tempted to vote for Nog. What are you getting at, with voting for two different people on this Day? There is no double execution. Experimenting perhaps?


X'd since Gwath's 264. Oh?
