(Translation: Hoarding is evil. Wolves are hoarders. Wolves are evil. Those demading raises....just connect the dots).

Seems normal to me...for a first post on Day 1, anyway. Not serious, nothing suspicious.

The wolves part to play is to eat us and I assure you, show me who the wolves are, and my fire his hot enough to roast them.

Nothing bad there. Still Day 1 content. Expresses hatred for wolves. Natural for an player.

That's just...gross.

Fairy nuff, since I've done the same before. Not knowing who to vote for, so my random Day 1 pick usually falls to you if I have to make one.

His feathers weren't ruffled about being voted for by Glirdan, so long as the vote was random, apparently.

No comment necessary.

Oooh, ouch. Pretty much says, 'Since your not the seer, even if you're an innocent, I won't trust you.'

Indeed but the so-called "random" votes, are rarely ever random in the true sense of the world. You often don't see random votes for someone's first time as they learn what goes on, nor random votes for members who haven't been around in a while. So really the "random" votes just go to someone who you know won't mind being voted for on Day 1, because dying Day 1 kind of stinks.

Again, not really anything to comment on.

That's actually made me more suspicious, by the way. A wolf would be more watchful for potential accusations against himself, would he not?

Right, we're supposed to distinguish your jokes from non-jokes, how? And you really think you can just get away joking around with clever names and not have someone say something about it?

The question is, who else took him seriously? It was a joke, obviously. Why can't we tease about wolf-ish names? He wasn't really making an accusation. That would have hurt if it'd come after a post that was trying to make Boromir look like a wolf.

As to your second part that is the biggest misconception in werewolf ever. Only the wolves don't want to die/be lynched. Glirdan just said he didn't want to be mod-fired, does this make him a wolf you think? The fact that someone, I don't know?...wants to participate and not be killed because someone who thinks they're being funny put the word wolf if someone's name, doesn't make him/her a wolf.

It's been addressed already by others.

Either way, I don't trust you and I know for certain 2 roles you are not, thus if it comes down to it, I will have no issues voting for you.

Why especially you? Some people wouldn't react. And just be cause you know he's not a gifted doesn't make him a guilty party. His behavior today has been such that I would really guess he's not a guilty party. So to not be bothered to vote for him really doesn't make sense. It would bother me to vote for a person who was likely an innocent.

Is being continued, wanted to get this out before deadline.

Innocent intended jokes or not, I still know some things Bom is not.

Okay, so apparently Boromir got frightened that Bom's glib comment would get him lynched. Fair 'nuff.

Oh, look...that's it.

My opinion...a bit over the top defensive and worried that such a comment would get him lynched. Really, it seems to me more dangerous to respond to such a thing than to just let it lie.

Edit: I X-posted with a few people since beginning my analysis. Pretty much since I last posted.

Boromir88 · 07-28-2011, 05:57 PM

I'm going to vote for whoever it is that will save me. So please...start voting like...now

Eruhen · 07-28-2011, 05:57 PM

Actually, Boro, you can take out a wolf even if you're lynched. See Lottie's post above.

However, unless you're certain of having one, you'd want to be cautious on Day 1.

I'll post my vote in a few. Just wanna let others have their say.

Shastanis Althreduin · 07-28-2011, 05:58 PM

Here with two minutes to spare... are there really only four votes thus far? I skimmed page 2 and all of page 3 thus far so I could post once before having to vote...

Shastanis Althreduin · 07-28-2011, 05:59 PM

Boro claims Hunter, have to vote to save him, will think about it when I can.

Loslote · 07-28-2011, 06:00 PM

DL. Stop posting.

Shastanis Althreduin · 07-28-2011, 06:00 PM

Ack, I thought Glirdan had the most votes except for Boro, but couldn't remember for sure... I have no idea what's just happened.

You don't understand. I did not get a pick during Night 1. I have no name to give in and it only applies to being killed. Not lynched.

Eruhen · 07-28-2011, 05:59 PM

Oh. True. Vote in a minute.

Lynched too, Lottie said.

I'll be voting for a submarine.

I flipped a coin - heads Boro dies, tails Glirdy dies - missed it, and it rolled under the couch. I flipped another one, and it landed on tails.

Glirdy has been lynched. Narration to follow.
