This was my post before rolls were assigned. McCaber shortened the roles to put them in the list. He put the innocent in quotes so that people wouldn't think that he was giving a role.

I do not appreciate being voted for based on these terrible reasons... and on being 'nice'. I don't mind if people actually legitimately finding me suspicious and then voting for me... that is the game... I understand as long as there are reasons.

Craydon (can I start calling you Crayon? Please? That is what I read every time I see your name... hehe) seems like the only person suggesting something interesting though I don't believe it will produce any wolves.

Actually I voted for you mostly because from the story you were the only one not reallyy in the village until the funeral which I Do find suspicious

Also your reaction of running away

and the quotes thing was more of a joke.

But Day 1s are sooo useful on Day 2s, therefore we should all help ourselves out and post anyway, even if we have nothing to say or add. Just so that toMorrow we'll have something on everyone!

See, I just posted something that didn't really contain anything overly new/useful, but now tomorrow someone will have something to analyse regarding me.
Like what? You've once again said nothing except "yeah, post more, people".

Morsul, the narrations don't contain clues to anyone's guilt. At least, they're not supposed to, anyway. (Right, Wilwa?)

Oh... mods don't typically put clues in the narration. That is a worse reason to be voting me...

But then the first vote IS entirely random? I mean I think it's more fun to play detectie with the story... Oh well The vote is cast whether for right reasons or not.

Though it may simply be you're shocked you were so quickly found out that you protest so, hmm?

I wouldn't say it's completely random on Day 1. One can get a feel for some people one way or the other. But later there is more to go on when you have one's voting record at your disposal.

He has a track record as being a wolf and he has gotten past my radar every time. I am not taking the risk of letting him live.

Also on a side note, I think SPM is a wolf. There is no way he is an ordinary innocent. I mean he is back now after being gone for years, it makes perfect sense to give him some kind of non ordinary innocent role so he can show off his apparently awesome skills at werewolf.

Okay... I'm not that keen on voting based on meta-game reasons, either.

It's your choice, to be sure. I'd prefer to earn a lynching with my actions in this circumstance, but there you go.

As for SPM, I know him only by reputation, which appears to be overwhelmingly positive. He may indeed be evil, but I'll not suspect him for anything beyond his actions here.

x'd with Nienna and Morsul

It's not meant to be random. You're supposed to vote based on people saying suspicious things, and circumstances– e.g. someone's relations with a known wolf- though of course that has to wait for later.

There's often not much to vote for on Day One, though. All I'm saying is that you can't go by the narration.

EDIT:X'd since Morsul.

If they put clues in the narration then the village wouldn't have much to do and it would mostly be the Mod...

I protest being voted for bad reasons is all.

Edit: x-ed with a host
