WWLXII: Dead Men Do Tell Tales

The point is that in this game, if you wanted to be conservative then the sensible thing to have done since Mira was going anyway would have been to double killed someone and got a concrete piece of information which we so desperately needed. All that happened is we lost a kill chance - not a raincheck because we can't take it later.

I be wonderin' –were there too much risk in killin' another on us? These swabs be main careful 'bout leavin' a trail... belike there's trails to be left, if ye get me drift.

Aye, happen there's bad 'uns on both sides.

But 'tis this way: them dogs o' mutineers would liker support the lynch o' Dancin' Mira if one o' they was set to walk the plank else. Arr, 'tis main hard that there be no easy way o' finding out what Annu or Shasty be. Makes a power o' difference.

I'll tell ye what us will find along o' them as lynched Mira –leastways very like– an' that's co-conspies. They be as much adrift as we, an' main afeard o' lynchin' one o' they allies.

I reckon I mark the voyage yer a'speakin' of, an' 'twere a co-conspirator as put for'ard the plan o' lynchin' som'un as were leavin' anyhow in th' first place.

I am not fluent in pirate but I can't see there is much risk to the aggressors with the seer dead. They can kill anyone they like at night unless the protector gets lucky and can vote for who they like during the day knowing that unless we double kill the identity of the lynchee will not be revealed to incriminate them.

No matter who we lynch we won't get any concrete information, unless we kill the person again. That's the only way we can get some sort of concrete information, as well being sure the mutineers' kills aren't mutineers. However, that isn't too helpful seeing as ghosts can't vote.

And seeing as supposedly our spy is dead...well we're pretty screwed unless the hunter gets a kill, or the Ranger saves someone. All we can do is really take some blind shots in the dark based on feeling, or people's behaviours.

A good question, but it would take a lot of rereading to prove or disprove it... but if someone is willing to do that, why not.

Okay, Nerwie, you made me change me mind - I'll go to reread some of yesterDay (even though the pirate talk kind o' gives me headache yarr).

[Thinlómien]

There's not much to say about yesterDay's voting, except that Gwath seems suspiciously much like going with the flow and supporting the wrong decision, there's something very fishy in his manner.

You could have a point there.

I was thinkin' on votin' for Annu, but now you've made realize that lynchin' Mira would buy us another day, at any rate. And there is always the off-chance that she could be a mutineer or a co-conspirator.

Like many have noted, the 'off-chance' looks to be what we're mainly dealing with in this game without knowing the identities of the dead.

Boromir, did you read what I said or are you the ship's parrot?

Well I read it...but I had just misread it. When I read Mira and 'double-kill' in the same sentence, I thought you meant Mira was going plus if we decided to lynch someone else, and by lynching someone else we would get concrete information. I didn't read it as 'double-kill' being lynching someone and then killing that same person.

Lommy, there is no right or wrong...what have I told you about choices in the States? It's Morgoth or Sauron, it doesn't matter who is less evil, you're screwed either way. We'd still have to spend a day on killing someone again just to get information, and that information may turn out totally useless anyway, so no matter what we decided to do we were screwed. Sorry to sound so bleak, just stating the truth.

Rikae feel free to call me intense, aggressive, or whatever, because that is like my tone. Although, currently that is mostly due to allergies, a massive headache, and finding out I am out of coffee grounds. My tone is really the only weapon I feel I have left.

++Nogrod

Still based on Day 1 uneasiness and some other things...like his paranoia in suspecting everyone who mentions that he himself is suspicious. Plus, he is managing to create theories as to why only mutineers would want him lynch, and describing the scenarios to strike up pity. Like here, being a good example:

So let's lynch Nogrod? See what I said about the mutineers wishing to do at the previous page: some should be lynched to keep people insecure about their status? Didn't you Boro just say you'd like to let the mutineers do the choices, why you'd wish otherwise with me?

In general he seems pretty sure about what the mutineers are doing...like again with the Eomer kill...something that was quickly supported by Mac.

[Boromir88]

Oh and that vote probably won't be retracted.

Plus, I still feel good about Inziladun, Wilwa, Rikae, and Nerwen.

I'm flip-flopping on Mith, and thinking she's better.

Lommy, Gwath, and Mac I'm watching. And of course, you can see how I feel about Nogrod.

Sorry but I must lump everyone I haven't mentioned as 'unsure,' I have to run...one of my old teachers I had for 4 years is getting married tomorrow, and I have absolutely nothing good to wear.

well Inearly voted you for being dim but fish-slapping may be more appropriate ..

With Nogrod... I know this sounds self obsessed but I am afterall the only one I know about... It bugs me that he bangs on about me giving suspicious vibes (practically before I even posted!), and consistently lists me as suspicious - without actually putting his vote where his mouth is or providing evidence for his suspicions then accuses me of being over defensive and retaliatory, when I challenged him on it. Now bad vibes is such an un-Nogrod like reason that I have to find it suspicious. Now I know I was quiet but there has been so little going on when I have been around - even today when I have been here for nearly five hours there has been very little interreaction - and I find piratespeak difficult. But I can understand the quietness... the ordos have nothing to go on.
