Sorry about that and nothing personal - I have to go with my strongest suspicion, you know. Sorry if you're innocent (I haven't played with you before, too, so I don't know your usual style).

I might switch at some point; if so, Inzil is a strong candidate. As for not being around until DL, he is still one of the most suspicious people and, if he were gifted, I think he would have the sense not to leave his fate dangling by being gone so long, but to at least check in.
I'm wary about the risk of lynching a gifted, but I'm also wary about the possibility "excusing themselves" might be an easy way for baddies to avoid lynching. We'll see. I also might have to switch to save myself, I'm afraid.

EDIT: Crossed with alona, phantom, Sally and Mac.

That's why I'm not sure whether to vote for him or not. Especially after yesterday.

Oh, and Lommie's back. Yay!

I've taken a closer look at Inzil and I'm going to have to vote for him. He seems to be looking pretty suspicious.

1. I've had nothing against Rikae up to this point. I don't really like the way he went after Rikae or Mac earlier toDay. Nothing wrong in doing that. To me it just didn't look right.

2. He throws out some suspicions and doesn't back them up.

3. He asks a question of morm when morm isn't around to answer. Then goes ahead and votes for morm without explaining why.

4. After yesterday I'd rather get this vote in now and not be the deciding factor in killing a Gifted.

++Inzil

Completely forgot to mention it earlier-

I saw some people saying stuff about how maybe Hakon had spotted the Bear, or that the Bear was worried he'd been spotted by him, or that Haky was blackmailing him, etc etc.

No, no, no. You can't really spot a Bear. A Bear has no special links to anyone and simply wants to not die. Just like the Ranger. And the Hunter. And every last Ordo in this gathering. He blends in. Kills can maybe clue you in on the Bear, but his behavior during the day? There's no reason for him to be any different than everyone else. And especially to even think the Bear would be spotted with any kind of certainty on the first day? And that he would actually be spooked about the possibilities of being nailed the first day? No, no, no... Not buying it at all.

Personally I would like to think that the Bear simply did us all a favor by killing one of the secondary lynch targets from the day before. Since we thought he was perhaps worthy of lynching, the Bear kills him and tells us what we need to know (his role, and therefore whether or not there was any sort of Villain-saving going on during the vote).

Perhaps old Teddy is indeed helping us catch the Villains.

Okay, wow, finally back to be able to read posts, and yay! Stuff with substance! That cures the aches from bad Elvis impersonators!


Soooo, there seem to be a lot of bandwagons to go with now, but they all sound sound. (Haha, get it?) But who really stands out?

Well, I would like to agree that alona and Tum are awfully cool with each other. But I still don't find Tum guilty, for earlier stated reasons. Alona seems a lil... Double sided this time around, I suppose. Her answers ring perfect when first read, but when pondered... could be wolf on innocent.

++alonariel

And I'm sorry that being voted for makes you feel so bad. Just know that this is coming from me only in-game. Nothing against you personally.

Okay, so Alon and Tum are too chummy then? Is that what's going on?

Well first, have you made sure that they aren't BFF?

If so, then I suppose I could vote for Tum on the basis that one of her nick-names is too close to mine.

Still considering Rikae though. But maybe leaning Shasta overall. I wish he was here to yell at me and then maybe I'd get a better read on him.

As an advanced warning...

I'm at the 'rents house for the week end, as they are away and I am on puppy-watching duty, and not all that thrilled. Erm...well the puppy-watching part is great, but they still have the worthless expensive piece of crap called AOL, and on top of that as they live in hick country, the only thing internet connection available out here is dial-up. Right now the 'net is being really sluggish. If I'm not on at the DL, I told wilwa to close down the day as soon as she can.

But, if it's not closed at 11, I expect silence. Anyone who is allowed can of course start their night time activities and one of us will be here as soon as possible to officially close the day and reveal the role of the person lynched. I would certainly hate to keep you all waiting too long

As a side note, since the Dark Monarch represnts all that is soul-less and wrong in the world, she must have invented AOL and dial-up.

I'm almost disappointed there has been so little posting toDay. Well, relative to yesterDay anyway. Okay, not really--that'd mean I'd have a lot of catching up to do into an evening that has included fire, presents, and (thus far) three beers.

I'm pacing myself, but I might be a bit fuzzy anyway.

Inziladun's vote for Morm, as noted several times already, has an odd--even malicious--air about it. Not necessarily a baddie's vote, I hasten to say, but it's not a particularly cooperative vote and the fact that Inzil was already on my "Radar" list means that he's pulled up to the head of my lynch-candidates race.

++ Inziladun

Obviously, I can retract and change, but it'll take quite the Last Hour argument to do that--especially with Beer #4 looming somewhere on the nearer rather than further horizon.
