Well then.
I'm pretty sure Eonwë is the cursed villager and he wishes to be a wolf. Do you remember his first post Quote:
Both scream "see who I am wolves!" to me. So he went all he could trying to get their attention and to make him their target. The problem is as the rules say: Quote:
Also, there is no way we can tell if the cursed has been turned or not until the end of the game. If there is no kill at one Night we might suspect it but we couldn't be sure about that because of possible saves by the rangers. So Dionysos is a threat to the end of the game and after all this row it's pretty likely that if Eonwë isn't a wolf they will try him anyway. So it's just how probable we think his role as Dionysos is? Some words on others in a moment, a vote, and then to sleep...

A list??
Wilwa - seems to be helpful and all that. Not going to vote her; talkative people are awesome.
Kath - haven't gotten a sense of her yet, but not going to vote for her because I've never played with her before. Boro - not ringing many bells, so probably won't vote for him toDay. Keepandir of Dol Mira - not much to go on. Zil - seems to be pretty innocent. Not going to vote for him toDay. BeiGei - looks pretty normal. Probably won't vote for her toDay. Lottie - is awesome, like normal. Not going to vote for her toDay. Eonwe - possible Cursed; probably won't vote for him toDay because he's probably not a wolf. Nienna - has been pretty quiet. Possibly submarine; possibly busy. Probably won't vote for her toDay. Nerwen - seems pretty innocent. Probably won't vote for her toDay. Folwren - not getting much of a sense for her, either, but again, have never played with her and thus will not vote for her. Tum - I have no idea. Possible submarine. Might vote for her toDay, because of her quietness and because of her lack of contribution when she does post. Lalaith - see Kath and Foley. Greenie - seems pretty innocent, but I'm not at all sure of anything about her. Probably won't vote her, though. Rikae - makes sense and seems like normal Rikae. Won't vote for her toDay. Shasta - he exists?? Mac - feels slightly off in all his posts, and isn't really making many helpful posts. Might vote for him. Nog - makes sense, makes good points, is being logical, not going to vote for him toDay. Phantom - I have no idea. Is definitely contributing. ![]() Sally - haven't seen anything really off, so probably won't vote for her toDay. So...Mac or Tum are likely to get my vote toDay. Pretty much no one else.

2. Alright, back to Boro. If you're a lover in this game and you need someone to find you, you might consider hinting. Of course, everybody expects hints, so you have to be careful. I think picking one from the evil/associated-with-evil team and beefing it up (since when is Zeus almighty anyway ![]() Same with your Hades-comment, just more careful/nervous. |

Hephaistos, not Ares. In my opinion, though it's frustrating to be alone with it, he used the reference to Zeus simply to say "I am a lover". Since we only have three, that's not a bad hint.

It sort of makes sense when you explain it that way, but it's something that you make fit a reason, not something that Boro would come up with as a way of hinting. There are tons of other ways of hinting that make a lot more sense and are a lot more likely for him to actually think of. The Zeus thing is just so random, and so unlikely that his prospective lover'd pick up on it, that I don't think he would have thought of using it as a hint. Especially not his only hint.

DL comes a few hours after bedtime, hence, I have to vote now.
The only two I feel comfortable voting for are Mac and Blind Guardian. BG seems to have made it a point to poke her head in occasionally and say nothing. Mac is suspicious enough to me pretty much any time, and it still looks like an awfully thin explanation of Boro's words that he's giving. And he sure is persistant about it, too. I don't particularly like having to vote for either of them on Day 1; BG because she always seems to invite this sort of thing, and Mac because he and I always seem to fall into this pattern. Of the two, I guess it's ++Blind Guardian Yes, voting with Kath. Oh well. x/d with all since 177. BG's last doesn't make her look any better: appears to only repeat what others have said.

Nerwen's Hades declaration really stands out there and makes her my number one wolf-suspect. On top of that there were only Boro's Zeus-comments (which make no sense for a wolf or a lover to make) and Eonwë's Dionysos-reference (which was way later than the initial banter). And this is a game where several people would need to hint at their mates or possible allies! So it would be incredible if no-one tried to make a contact!
Of others I'm more confused about. Lottie I remember suspecting for wrong reasons before but there is something in her posts that I can't quite put my finger on which makes me suspect her (fex. how she commented on the Eonwë-issue, but there was more as well, earlier). Moreover, Rikae is spot on to the game and I really enjoyed her little argument with tp, but there's something in her posting as well that makes me a bit nervous (like always), namely the way she brought the Boro-issue back or how she turned around on it - or how she reacted to the Eonwë discussion. It's just a bad hunch maybe. Also what Mac said about Greenie (and she said about him) - heh, at least I don't think they are Zeus and Hera... even if the arguing might be as like them in the stories... ![]() Then there are the cohorts of those who have said little of any real value (eg. leading up to new ways of looking things or discussing things - or even contributing their own in some discussions). It's always so hard with them. Nothing to say when there is nothing said. But if you just want to "check" someone you can have no read on, you should do it earlier than later as the going gets tougher by Day and many feel - justifiably - that we can not afford blind checkings later on. I'll take a fast tour around to check those less contributing ones before making any vote. Meanwhile it would be nice to hear from you others. It's such quiet. Heh, talk of the devil... x'd with four last posts...

I might be missing something here, but don't Zeus and Hera know who each other are? If that's the case then there's no reason for Borolover to be hinting to his counterpart.

Zeus is almighty, or at least he can be seen as such. King of the gods and all that. Boro was probably IC bantering. As a hint, it really wasn't very functional. As banter, it makes sense.

I actually need to be going to bed soonish. 5 AM comes early.
I'm not making a list, there are too many bloody people. ![]() Who stands out at the moment: Boro- Confusing. Something doesn't sit right about him, but I'm hesitant to vote for him at this point. Mac- As usual, I want to lynch him just for being Mac. Not toDay, though. Eönwë- The bit about Dionysus has me pretty well convinced he's the Cursed, but as I see it, he's no threat until he's turned, and we should know when that happens, or at least know it's possibly happened. BG- Popping in and out, no substance whatsoever. Very tempting to vote her. x/d with Nog and Nerwen

It really does seem a reach on Mac's reasoning on why Boro said that about Zeus. I'm hesitant to vote him on Day 1 though. I always want to, and I'm hardly ever right about him, it seems.

Ay I am back. And I have caught up reading. I hate day 1s.
Nerwen- talked about Hades. (right?) very suspiciuos. Eönwë- Dionyses. That was weird. I don't really like it. Phantom- kinda annoying. But not going to vote. These are the only people that I've noticed. Xed with 172 |

Looks like so far I don't have much as far as suspicions. The people that have hit my radar so far toDay are:
Boro - There was all the Zeus talk around him. However he generally confuses me so it probably means nothing. Lottie - That might just because I'm on her radar so it probably is just a knee-jerk reaction to that. However she's also is on Nog's radar and I tend to trust Nog. Mac - I'm not sure about him. I really can't put my finger on it, but it also might be that once again I'm on his radar so it probably means nothing. Eonwe - I'd like to know more about this statement: Quote:
On another note I talked to Sally and she said she's having internet that seems to be working sporadically. Edit: xed up to post 172

Shasta - not seen yet, so not voting as he might appear.
Those who have been around but contributed little or nothing... Keeper aka Mira BeiGei Nienna Sally Tum Those who have contributed more or less and whom I'd like to see contribute more (as they make sense or feel innocentish) Wilwa phantom Boro Zil Folwren Lalaith Those who have contributed and I wouldn't like to vote toDay but who bear watching for one reason or another. Lottie Greenie Kath How fitting, the one's I'm torn about but suspect enough to give them their own category... Rikae Mac (that is soo bad! Really!) My suspects. Eonwe - the cursed Nerwen - suspicious of wolvery So at this point it would make sense to vote for Nerwen (or Eonwë, actually, but if you all agree there is another way of interpreting the rules then it's different; to me they look pretty clear but that may be a language issue - and anyway in this situation we might afford to wait, although after the first non-death Night it will be different), or then vote for one of the "submarines"... If the subs stay as subs when Days go on we really should try to get rid of them but if they stand up for their challenge then we should just try for the best odds. And really at this point there's still time for the subs to make it better toDay so I'm a bit hesitating voting any of them right now without knowing who will actually provide us with some thoughts and not stay the enigmas... Any thoughts? Heh, x'd with two I named "subs" - that's the way it goes... and a few others...

I can see where Mac is coming form. After all, Zeus is a wolf's lover, so "allied to Zeus" could = wolf's lover. However, I still don't think that's what Boro meant - the way he phrased it just doesn't fit. He connected it to Phantom, which Mac will probably say was intended to disguise it, but which would also have the effect of garbling his hint.

So, the False Seer discussion totally confuses me, so I'm not going to touch that.
The Lover thing seems to have taken up alot of the Day, which I guess makes sense since it's such an important part of the game. It just seems to have taken on a bit *too* much of the day, but oh well. Boro makes more sense now, since I think he was using 'alied with Zeus' to be in reference of the 'good side'. So I'm not going to push it more. Same for Nerwen, with the Hades thing, as far as I can tell it was banter. Now Eonwe. Well that's something else. For him to be so blatant if he's the Cursed he must kow that if he gets turned we're just going to lynch him. So maybe this is his way of staying allied to the village? Giving himself up so he doesn't have to be evil? Or he just partied to much, and it was also banter. That one just seems different to me than the other two. But if he's the Cursed we shouldn't be killing him. Well, there is another option for what he could be doing (to help the village). But if I'm right than me saying it could kind of ruin it, so I'll stay quite for now. As for who to vote for. No idea right now. Maybe Mac, since the Boro-Zeus thing makes no sense as a Lover hint. But that's kind of slim. Maybe BG, because I don't like it when people complain about it being slow and then don't say anything when there's talking. I'm gonna read some more, but I'll be around for the next hour or so, so I'll wait as long as possible. x'posted with a few

Oh. about when the cursed dies.
So what doesn't make sense to me. I would assume that when someone dies Glirdy will say something like "Downer X - Thanatos" in the deadlist. Since some of the roles are harder to categorise without saying the name of the god, and since even just saying Wolf would leave question what with the Lover situation. So when the cursed dies, if he suddenly says "wolf" or "ordo", when he's just been saying god names before, won't that seem a bit odd? Therefore wouldn't he have to reveal them as the cursed? He just wouldn't need to say wheter it is wolf-Dyonisis or ordo-Dyonisis, therefore keeping the mystery. We'd know the cursed is dead, just not whether they had been turned yet. Atleast that's how I would do it. I just don't see how else he can keep the Cursed's identity hidden. x'ed with BG and Tum

Tum, are you saying that Mac's suspicion of Boro being a lover is a hint that Mac is a lover?
Although there's something to the idea that people tend to talk about their own roles more than might be wise, I think that's a little bit of a reach, especially considering that you dismiss the idea that Boro's hinting - which, though I don't really buy it, is more plausible than that Mac is. |

Ok, so I thought I could last another hour, but unlike my bestie I don't have the ability to stay up til 2am. Especially when I've just worked and have to be up early in the morning. I'm just too tired.
I just don't really know who to vote for yet. But I need to, really soon, and I want a stronger reason than 'she's too quiet'. But fatigue might get the best of me here. I'll wait a bit more. Maybe someone will do something evil. ![]() x'ed with Rikae and the Cupcake (who has been really quiet too)

I'm also not stoked on this suspicion of Steve, for the same reasons as I wasn't stoked on suspecting Boro and Nerwen for what could very well be innocent Day 1 banter. People I won't be voting for toDay: Boro Nerwen Steve (All for reasons previously stated.) Shasta - I don't vote for people who don't appear. At least not Day 1. Who I probably will be voting for toDay unless something better comes up within the next hour or so: Blind Guardian - don't be posting that you want people to provide you with substance and then don't do anything to spark discussion. EDIT: xed since the wilwa post I quoted. And bollox, that now looks suspiciously like bandwagoning.

Just going to bed while left the PC open... and I realised I wanted to see the tally. So why not send it to you as well? I think it bears watching...
Foley -> Eonwë Greenie -> Macalaure Kath -> Blind Guardian Lalaith -> Boro Inzil -> Blind Guardian 2 Nienna -> Eonwë 2 Sally -> Blind Guardian 3 Nogrod -> Nerwen Wilwa -> Blind Guardian 4 Those with votes have their highest vote bolded... I really think Wilwa's last one looks suspicious - and Sally's looks like a throwaway...

And a fast answer to Nerwen...
I did read your post about Zeus differently, like trying to persuade whoever played Zeus to think he would not win without Hera (and thus without the wolves). And I would not have called you defensive (or over-defensive) if you'd tried to talk yourself out from that Hades stuff - which if you're innocent would be something you'd probably really have tried to speak yourself out from (and really the lovers need so badly to connect to each other in this game and you're one of the only ones who made any that kind of reference!). But your reaction was an attack on one person. So trying to persuade people to lynch one person other than you instead of an innocent's reaction of trying to prove your innocense or giving us the whole list of your suspicions lynching one of which would be better. The wolves like to single out one they'd rather get rid off - the one they calculate is the possible one. It would require so much work to come up with many suspicions there would be some grounds for suspecting for someone who knows who the innocents are? So really Nerwen, I do suspect you.
