It often does, I just thought that it was funny that Nogrod and others normally suspect me when I get easily annoyed and now they think it is odd when I don't.

I think I am slowly getting from my "I have some idea" into the "I don't have any idea"-mode. When it comes to thinking about whom to choose as a Rep, when looking through the list of players, I could think about Lommy or even about Foley again - though first I would like to hear more from her, like, whom she suspects now and so on. I am not so sure if I trust Rune enough to go with my experiment "let's see what he will do if I make him a Rep". Steve is also one possibility, I am not sure about Nerwen... originally, I had good feeling about her, now I have mostly "no feeling", but then, maybe if I saw her vote, it would be what I need to make my compass point to some more obvious direction concerning her.

I think that is one disadvantage to the Rep system; that because not all people vote every Day, you eventually sort of lose the grip of what you feel like about people who haven't been voting anybody for some time, especially if their words are generally neither that suspicious or that innocent-looking, or back and forth.

I think I will spend some time with once again reviewing and reconsidering stuff about people. I would, most of all, however, like to see people posting (especially people like Celuien, of whom I would like to learn more using this Day, or Mira, or even Kath).

Suit yourself Legate, but if anybody feels differently they should feel free to vote for me as a Representative.

I am sorry that I have not been able to make any huge contribution today, but things are pretty stressed. I should have more time to read posts in 5 hours time.

For me, her Day 1 vote and her air of jumpiness the next Day were the main points against her.

It would take a ridiculously paranoid pack of elves to read #407 as a Seer hint, especially as Nog didn't behave towards me in a manner that would suggest him "knowing" I was an elf.

As Nerwen said, it wouldn't have been the first time baddies acted so. The comment by Nog in #407 wouldn't seem nearly as overt as all he said about 'leaving Sally to the Seer' and all that, though.

Since you say that, who would have been your first choices?

Soliciting votes, are you? What would your platform be?

As Nerwen said, it wouldn't have been the first time baddies acted so. The comment by Nog in #407 wouldn't seem nearly as overt as all he said about 'leaving Sally to the Seer' and all that, though.

However, the comments about phantom and Sally are the ones that contain the actual "Seer-hints"– and Nog's first comment on Day Two suggests he'd dreamed phantom in the Night.

I'd like second, third and fourth opinions on that point, though. Obviously it makes a big difference whether the wolves thought Nog had dreamed phantom already, or was merely going to do so.

(That– before I get ahead of myself– is if they took Nog's comments as Seer-hints in the first place, which of course we don't know.)

Exactly my thoughts.

I think we can quite safely assume they did - OR then they thought we'd think that and were trying to achieve something in that light. The only thing that comes to my mind, though, is phantom seeming innocent.

I don't like it that it has grown so quiet here. Granted, it's not very late yet but there are still very few posts taking into account that this half of the Day is more than halfaway through...

[Folwren]

I have a couple minutes to post...

I expected to be raked over the coals by all of you, quite honestly. I'm pleasantly surprised to see that you all don't appear to blame me too much for what happened. Thanks.

I was going to tell why I voted the way I did, but I won't unless you all want to hear, because it would take up some of my very little time, and I don't want to do that.

Question: Do we think that the elves thought Nogrod was the seer based only on what Fea put into the narration?

I was not around on Day2, so I don't know what he said that could have been misconstrued as seer hints. I have my suspcions about somebody else being a seer, but I won't say whom I think it is.

Also...when I have time, I would like to look into Shasta. Sally said she distrusted him, but that may have just been because he voted for her. But if there's another reason she didn't trust him, then I'd like to find out. The problem is, I may not have very much time, so if anyone else thinks it worth while to look at him...please do.

And my brief moments are fulfilled, my few words spoken.

[Folwren]

What about Legate? He's another person I'll look into. It's odd, but I think I distrust both the people who voted me into Rep position yesterday. I obviously distrusted Wilwa, obvious because I killed her, and I know I distrust Legate. I think it's because I feel they shouldn't have voted for me that day because I had declared I was gone, and they did. I think that's odd and not very explanable, unless Legate really didn't see I was gone.

[A Little Green]

To sum up my thoughts on people:

Leaning innocent:
Foley - Continues to look innocent. While her yesterDay's vote would have been ingenious for an elf, her conduct around that time speaks strongly against there being any kind of controlled plotting and scheming and purposefulness behind her actions.
Legate - Leaning more innocent than not. He is being wishy-washy in the sense an elf would not, if you get what I mean. An elf would be more - composed? Then again, I have a bad feeling that he is totally fooling me.
Lommy - I quite simply can't see her as an elf. I'm almost tempted to say that if she is one she deserves to win.
Phantom - See Lommy (except change the she into he of course).
Shasta - I'm starting to get suspicious of him because of not suspecting him. He has fooled me so brilliantly for so many times that I don't trust him anymore, and yet in this game I can't bring myself to find him elvish. Bleh. He's still getting into this category, as I find myself constantly thinking of him as an innocent Shasta.

Need more data:
Celuien - I need to see more of her before being able to form an opinion one way or another.
Kath - Her long post yesterDay looked really genuine. It's of course easy to look genuine if you post as little as she does.. So again, I need to see more of her.
Mira - Another I would absolutely need to see more of. Somehow I'm inclined to think an elf wouldn't be so inactive, though.

Undecided about:
Nerwen - I couldn't point it out, but there is something in her that doesn't quite sit right with me. Could be just a vague random gut-feeling though. I need to check her if I have time.
Rune - Absolutely no read, he's another I'd need to check. He has indeed been way more agreeable in this game than what I remember him being in previous ones, but then again, it's been a while and people's styles do change. Also, I'm thinking that a part of why he is so mild-tempered and moderate in this game is that he hasn't really needed to aggressively defend himself. Don't know what to make of his continuous desire to become rep, though - just average power-hungry Runne or an elf-Runne?
Steve - I'm really running out of time here, as I'd love to check him too! His behaviour yesterDay seemed somehow almost too neat. A potential elf.
Zil - Way too smooth to my liking. He's certainly among the more active players of this lot, and yet I can't get a read on him. (I have the same problem with him in every single game we play together, though.)

I'm slightly worried about the fact that I have no stronger suspicions - after all it's Day 3 in a game with 48 hour Days.. Also, I have a bad feeling that I'm being fully and completely fooled and our remaining elves are in fact Foley, phantom and Kath or something like that.


EDIT: x-ed with phantom, Cel and Legate. Nice to see people around!

[Eönwë]

The problem is that as the game wears on, I seem to be getting less and less confident about who I find innocent or guilty.

Anyway, I was going to vote Zil as rep, because I want to see more of him, but since he's already one, and I don't really want him to have too much of a supermacy over the others, I'm going to vote someone else that I wanted to see talk more.



So I'm going to vote:

Let's see what he does with the power he so craves.
