First is the worst, second's the best... Third is the one with the hairy chest!

Lynch McCaber!

Unless our moddess counts, then... Lynch Inziladun!


So there, I already found two wolves. What have you guys been doing so far?

Well, here we are! I am no stranger to complications, but this little abode of ours seems to have turned a little bit... uncomfortable.

We already have several self-confessed Werewolves, several more accused by others, well done! The only danger I perceive is that at this rate, we might run out of villagers before the Day is done.

On a serious note, though. Good to see people posting around here, because we all know that curse of Day 1 is usually even worse than curse of Wolvery itself. I didn't have chance to post earlier today and cannot really post very much at this point (here being middle of the night), but I certainly will appear couple of hours before DL with the hope that more people pop up meanwhile, and perhaps some more dicussion.

So far, of course half-in-role posts and all that starting banter is hard to judge, if I were to judge only based on tone and gut-feeling (pretty much the only things now), my bet would be in fact McCaber (strangely enough, his posts essentially stand out to me as the only ones giving any awkward vibes on first read). And okay, maybe possibly Mac. But that's just first impressions. Otherwise... nothing much to say. People are behaving, I would say... normally.

But hey. I'll be around for a short while if there's something more to respond to, but like I said, then you can expect me several hours before DL. And I certainly hope to be more active then (I hope people will be still around, though).

Till that time...

EDIT: X-posted with Inziladun. Notwithstanding joking, to name the same two people is somewhat... unsettling.

Actually, such early wolf-on-wolf would be both incredibly gutsy and undeniably risky. It just seemed a bit opportune that both jumped out of the woodwork like that.

It's a conspiracy, I tells ya. Or, more likely, a coincidence based on the fact that so few have posted toDay.

I'm a bit loopy for lack of sleep, though I'm sure no one's taken notice. Another reason I'll be voting early.

I didn't even think about it as wolf-on-wolf, but McCab especially (and Mac a bit) was basically really the only person sounding to me somehow fake, or how to say it. But that's really the only thing. But noticing such interactions is good, if for future reference, or whatever, we shall see...

Okay, but yes, off to rest for a while and then I will be back before DL...

How's Cab suspicious? Or is this still just banter?

I can't see "wolf-on-wolf" on the level of Mac's comment about Cab being either risky or... well... much of anything.. I mean, it's a silly rhyme the kids say when they come to the dinner table.

Although Cab's response to Mac does worry me slightly.

Ok, thoughts:

Nerwen - seemed a bit antsy in her initial posts, maybe, but others are fishier at the moment.
Inzil - the creepiest thing about him is that he doesn't seem suspicious of me! No, seriously, I find his jumping-on-Cab-for-jumping-on-Mac at least as opportunistic as Cab's jump was. Actually, I see Cab's in a bit better light, since someone needs to get suspicions going, right? A risky role to play but a necessary one.
Also, I got the impression Cab was his main suspect? If it was Mac, I'm not quite sure why, but he chose to vote him.
Cabbie - Suspecting Mac for his timing. Not really as suspicious, to my mind, as it seems to be to Legate and Inzil.
Legate - Seems legit. After all, "sounding fake" is pretty much all there is to go on at this point (that or the timing of posts).

Eight years of being nice earns you a free pass for toDay, Mac. Wasn't that a great game?

Sally
Aganzir
Wilwa
Greenie


Absent and therefore all evil. One must be the secret cobbler.

Shasta

Also absent, but psychic and therefore too useful to lose.
Unless evil... psychic wolves? Nope nope nope...

Threatening to vote people seems to be effective. Perhaps I'll vote for Sally...

After Kit's (next to) last game, you would think she would know better than to hang out in a bar by herself at night. Alas, our Kit has yet again been taken from us too soon, leaving only me to avenge her foul and absolutely natural murder. I shan't let you down, my darling!

Yes, hello, I'm here, and Kit's dead again. Who do I have to kill this time?

I guess the idea is that he suspects them in tandem- but still, why pick the one he *hadn't* been talking about? And it looks to me as if his initial "suspicion" might have just been a joke and only became serious after Legate's posts about them.
All same, this would be clumsy playing for an experienced wolf. The same goes for Mac and Mc "suspecting" each other so loudly.

If I had to guess right now, though, I'd say Zil + either Mac or Mc *might* be possible fellows- but once again, it all seems like cub-tactics.

Sorry... must be channelling Lommy.
Edit: x'd since Rikae.

I didn't think him particularly dodgy before, but it did look a little odd that he threw that out there on Mac so quickly.

In other news, there was a few minutes ago a lightning strike unnervingly close to my house. I wonder if there's a crater in the back yard.

Come on, guys. You're going to leave me having to vote like this?

Ok. Not voting is not an option. Of those who've posted, Rikae seems to be the most involved.

Legate has appeared, and doesn't have any furry vibe at the moment.

What I said about Cab immediately making note of Mac's entrance (just after being called out on his absence by Rikae) was, I thought, something interesting in a very slow Day. It really wasn't that big of a deal, but the fact that both have since disappeared is maybe something else to consider.
