Bloody Downs! I wasn't ready to submit yet. Anyway, gimme a couple minutes and I'll dredge up the relevant posts, yes?


Mind you, I'm not sure he is a gifted, but if he's hinting at it (and I think he is, and I hate myself for bringing it up) and is gone for the Day and not able to reveal properly, I think it's up to us to at least not kill him until we investigate.


EDIT: x'd with Nerwen

I'm not saying everyone bandwagons to vote McCaber, because that doesn't tell us anything (even if he is a wolf) and would be a waste. However, giving him a few votes to make him an able quick choice if needed to avoid a disastrous lynch shouldn't be anything to *gasp* over.

Not everyone can stay to the DL everyday (this game I'm gonna be one of those who can't). As far as I know right now, he's going to be mod-fired at the end of the day if he doesn't vote, and if there is someone else you feel strongly wolvish about go for it, but in the event that we're wrong and there's a gifted reveal, it's nice to have a fallback option to go to. If McCaber's going to get mod-fired (maybe we can ask Shasta for clarification?), it would be most wise to make him the fallback if there is some sort of untimely reveal or chaotic madness that happens far to often towards the DL.

If you think to, it really doesn't waste a lynch/day, just delays it to the next day. It would be a waste if everyone bandwagons to vote for McCaber now, but giving him a few votes to make him an option and protect against a disastrous lynch...there's absolutely nothing wrong with that.

What is so impossible to understand that you can't lose the # of lynches in any game. With any number of people, you get the same # of chances to lynch a wolf, because the number of people don't change, just the amount of days.

Please Lottie, point to where I said we all go and vote for McCaber right now...I said I'm not going to be on the DL, and I don't want to wake up finding out I was lynched, on top of someone else being mod-fired (on top of already losing wilwa). I said we need to make him an available choice to protect against an absolutely disastrous lynch. Who knows what you can learn from McCaber's death, or the votes? You can't until he's killed.

And again it's not wasting any chance we have t lynch a wolf...none whatsoever. Do the math, do you want 2 chances at a wolf, in 1 day or 2 chances in 2 days? So I'm doing it because I'm tired of arguing this, as I argued it the last time I advocated it. When you come to realize I'm right, I will rub it in your face, just so you know.

Underlining mine. There was something else too, but the internet/Downs is being strange so I missed it in the rush to make this post. I don't know. Am I nuts?

Yes.

I mean, yes, he might be hinting he's gifted there, but, it just seems to me, only the way wolves often do– in fact wolves drop those kind of vague, uninformative hints more often than the actual gifteds, in my experience. After all, what's the point of a gifted alerting the wolves?

EDIT:X'd with Lottie and Sally.

Well I'm not a wolf and I noticed, so heck if I know. And I'm probably wrong, but with that niggling right there I don't want to go and kill him and then have my only prize be an 'I told you so' dance at the start of toMorrow. Like I told Boro re: his plan, without risk there's no reward. I'm willing to keep him around another Day, even if just one, so I can decide whether or not I believe those 'hints'.

Oh, dear. I come back and find not only an escalating Boro wagon, but also Sally saying that he might be gifted? Well. Honestly, I'd be happy with either a Boro or a BeiGe lynch, but I must admit I'm more comfortable with a BeiGe lynch right now - Boro's more confusing, and BeiGe just screams newbie wolf. Vote count:

Nerwen -> Boro
Morsul -> BeiGe
Boro -> Cabbie
Tum -> Cabbie (2)
Mira -> BeiGe (2)
BeiGe -> Cabbie (3)
Zil -> Boro (2)
Noia -> Boro (3)
Xed -> Boro (4)

EDIT: xed with a couple Sallys

Let's do it then. I'm just too uncertain about the Boro thing to lynch him right now. What do you say, Little Lottie? All innocents together?

I don't think Boro's hinting at being a gifted; that's stretching it a tad. But I'm more certain about BeiGe than I am about Boro, so here goes...

++BeiGe

Personally, I have a really bad feeling about Boro, but I'm fine with lynching him.
