WW LXXXVIII: What Lies in the Dark (Game Thread) - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Nogrod · 05-05-2011, 02:26 PM

Skimming through the thread for any hints...

The way Lottie and Glirdy rant in the beginning looks a bit odd but could just be an inside-joke I just didn't understand. If they are shelob and the stinged though... well it's surely possible if not exactly wise in a game where Shelob needs to stay alive and can do it easily not making mistakes.

The most careful ones? Nerwen, Inzil, Boro? Or the one just making a joke-list? Shasta of course (why I always end up suspecting you?)

I'm not voting for Lhuna for obvious reasons, toDay.

Neither will I vote for Bom T. I have never played with her/him (or at least I don't remember doing that - and s/he seems to do some pretty decent work, if not too much of it).

Also I don't think Fea is Shelob as all this playing around Laura12345 (or whatever) probably means she's not The Baddie.

tp I have no reason to believe is Shelob either. He "forgot" to mention that he does other things than just reveal and false-reveal in games, and I think he has been up to a few nice ones thus far.

Okay. Needs to draw a list now to help my mind. Where are you others?

Heh... call one and get one...

Yeah, she's a beautiful woman, probably.

Truth, the young man speaks it. They're both very pretty. (For serious.)

Five(ish) minutes.

First things first...well two things actually.

Legs! Good. Arms! Nice. Hands! With lots of fingers. How many? Oh great there's ten. Ears! Even better. Nose! Woot, I'm fine.

I feel safe enough to also add...Nice hair. Clever girl. She has a gun. And unlike me, she really has no problems shooting shelobs.

Thanks, sweetie.

....so I'm going to bed.

Does anyone know where Nerwen is?

Some weird place called "Australia". I hear they have to wear velcro shoes to keep from falling off the earth.

Okay, so, since no one has objected to it, would everyone please tell me which person you would have selected for your cure yesterday/last night if you were Sam?

Probably Bom for me. He came out of the gate acting as if he'd known you for years. That, or he's been stalking you here. Uncanny, I called it.

It just occurred to me - sally said "Shelob was not able to sting anyone last Night." What if it means just that, Shelob missed the DL and was indeed not able to sting? Do we get to be told details like this, Moddess, or are we left to speculate how it is that there is no new Been-Stung?

That didn't occur to me– but anyway, the way Sally worded it, I think she's being as ambiguous as possible. But maybe she'll surprise us.

Nogrod · 05-05-2011, 02:43 PM

So we'd need to catch Shelob toDay... or the one she stinged. Both would be good deals. Possibly the latter even better!

Not voting on D1 without a good last hour reason:
Bom T. (my first game with her/him)
Lhuna (long time no see)
tp (makes sensible effort)
Fea (because of this Laura-stuff)

I'm probably not voting my usual D1 suspects - I'm more often wrong with them than not...
Lottie
Glirdan
Shasta

Torn with:
Wilwa (makes sense and effort to think but is very careful - but with her vote)

Are a bit too careful to my taste thus far (looking at my point of Shelob wishing to be noncontroversial)
Inzil
Nerwen
Boro

Has Nienna posted?

EDIT: X'd with a host it seems. Good we start playing (fifteen minutes before the DL... )
