The thing about Greenie I dislike / suspect is that she goes on explaining why a wolf wouldn't have done what wilwa did (dare to talk about how a seer might try to play) and that that is the reason she feels good about her.

Really, a wolf would exactly "dare" to do that. A wolf would love to point that out if none else had done it as the seer surely has thought of that. And I remember Greenie most often being on the camp which says "you elitists don't you think the gifteds can't think themselves!" when someone dares to suggest something to the gifteds - but now she thinks the seer might not have thought of the obvious?

So that I find a bit dubious.

Okay. It bothered me, why would Greenie behave that dubiously and I checked the rules for something that I thought might apply...

So she was trying to signal a possible fellow-wolf? I mean if they don't know each others identities, then they should try to do something to not let a fellow-lynch to happen.

Which thought actuslly puts the idea of no lynch thisHour into a different light as well...

So if I understand this correctly, if the voting is tied, we don't lynch anyone, but every non-vote is cast randomly?

In that case trying to orchestrate a tie/non-lynch is impossible considering the number of people who will likely miss the vote.

unless we establish our intentions early enough... which I think we should do (not an exemplary Hour thisHour... ).

Incorrect, sir. If someone misses two votes without reason, then their vote will be cast toward a random guest. And yes, in the event of a tie, no one dies.

Does that only go for the second consecutive non-vote? I don't remember.

x/d again with last three.

Oh, ok then.

I'm not on board with a tie/non-lynch, and my two suspects are up for lynching. Hm.

If Wilwa is innocent then clearly Mac and Inzil conspired to save their packmate Greenie.

So when will you tell us the result SS so that we can continue the discussion?

I mean do I go to sleep or are you telling it like soonsh that I should stay up for a moment still?

Oaky. I think I'm really off with the rules.

Last time I read them I got the idea we can talk 24/7 but now as I skimmed them through I couldn't be that definitive anymore.

So do we have Nights and Days (Nights= not talking) even if we just call them hours. or are some "hours" just for silence?

Good point. I forgot that, but non-voting will actually just take the lynch out of one's own hands and put oneself at risk.

But Nog, the fact that they are not allowed to discuss would suggest that they do know the identities of the others. Though I quite like the sound of the idea of letting the committee attack each other, I doubt a Mod would allow such things.

I was referring to this, in case it's not clear.

And I'm tired and my mind still feels jumbled so I'm going to retire to my room for the next half an Hour.

edit: x-ed with Mac, who's right of course.

Completely surprised that this started already. I'm too used to startup days that are longer than usual... anyway, I'm hanging about now.
