WW CVII: Restless Nights in Sleepy Hollow - Game Thread - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Legate of Amon Lanc · 10-11-2014, 03:38 AM

Fast succession of votes; I guess we might want to get used to it.

In any case, I hope those who haven't posted yet at all will post; and that also on further Days there will be more discussion.

Impressions:

sally's reasoning for her vote seems innocentish to me. I am a bit uncertain about Rikae's in that respect, perhaps she just did not have time to re-formulate and did not have very strong reasons (on Day 1, understandable) but I would have liked to know if there was any more reason for voting Zil aside from what she said in her first post (which didn't sound to me like suspicion at all, that's why I'm wondering - she essentially said only "the most suspicious thing about him is that I don't find him suspicious", ergo is that the reason to vote?).

Inzil's vote seems more random than anything else, because there's like six posts here to choose from. I didn't see anything in Mac's post besides early banter.

This has more or less the same vibe I got earlier from McCab, which could be this sort of wishy-washy "I am pointing at someone, but never mind me, I didn't actually say anything". Of course it has reasons behind it, but . The question is also whether voting for me after that is a sign of independant mind or further dodge: a Wolf mentions person X as suspicious and then votes person Y, because he doesn't want to be associated with the lynching of person X. Cab is still in my orange zone, essentially.

Clearly Inzil is trying to look innocent by acting like he always does (i.e., voting for me). Very suspicious.

Only Legate and Rikae are really trying to be helpful, which is nice, and even though it doesn't actually tell us anything about their alignment, I'd be willing to reward it by not voting for them.

I hope this is not the classical case of a Wolf "buddying up" or talking nicely to other people in order to get on their good side. Villainy wears many masks, none of which so dangerous as virtue. Also, I have hard time remembering whether Mac has always been so cheerful as he seems from all his posts, or whether it is a result of his merry Nightly frolicking.

Will do a quick check-up on everyone and post some short summary.

EDIT: x-ed with Greenie. Good, people appear!

Reasoning yes (even if I don't agree - Inzil can be a trolling loudmouth whatever his role), phrasing no. I feel an innocent would be more concerned about using words such as 'ordo' because for all they know, he might be a gifted and they most certainly wouldn't want to draw the wolves' attention to that.

I don't want to vote for Inzil or Legate today. Might cast a whatever sort of vote for Mac or Shasta or another submarine should they start getting votes. Or might vote for Algae or sally, which would be a bit pathetic because they're my Everyday Top Suspects(tm) but the best bet I have right now.

Aganzir · 10-11-2014, 05:17 AM

Inzil – Mac
Mac – Shasta
Sally – Inzil
Rikae – Inzil (2)
Cab – Legate

I will amend this - it's most likely just Legate, Algae and me voting because Nerwen+Day1≠true love and wilwa and Shasta haven't showed up anyway.

What should we do, kiddos?

I see what you mean. But I also think the way he phrased his surprise (notwithstanding joking, to name the same two people is somewhat... unsettling) seemed like he was more disturbed than surprised. Like I said, I might be reading things into an innocent Legate phrasing things oddly, but it's the best lead I have at the moment.

That said -

++ Legate

Aganzir · 10-11-2014, 05:21 AM

Aw that sucks.

++Legate

Because I like Inzil better.

Aganzir · 10-11-2014, 05:22 AM

Aaaa crap I'm so stupid.

Legate and I could have negotiated a Mac/Shasta lynch.

Can I retract?

A Little Green · 10-11-2014, 05:24 AM

Why Mac?

Aganzir · 10-11-2014, 05:25 AM

All I thought was, Okay now Legate will vote for Inzil to save himself, I want to play with Inzil! I completely forgot what I just said about the remaining voters.

Very interesting, LG. I'm really wondering about your reasoning there, because didn't you effectively disqualify that being disturbing yourself? As in, okay, let's say that what I said is odd, but what does it effectively mean? What would I accomplish by saying it if I were a baddie? More so if it seemed like I was disturbed? In your train of thoughts, the only thing that could point it to would be that one of the guys in question (or both) would be fellow Wolves and I am panicking - so why would I bring more attention to it all? Very, very odd reasoning you have, indeed.

Anyway, not much time left... voting soon...

Legate of Amon Lanc · 10-11-2014, 05:27 AM

And what the??? And can I even save myself anymore???

Well, of course I have to

++Zil

But seriously?????

Aganzir · 10-11-2014, 05:28 AM

I said I was stupid and sorry!

I am also laughing very much right not because this will look hilarious to people reading it later.

I can assure you, it WON'T look hilarious to the village.

First person to get the votes is lynched, ergo me.

For that matter, I believe Agan innocent and I don't know about Greenie now. (50/50 I'd say. And it isn't just because of the vote.)

Legate of Amon Lanc · 10-11-2014, 05:28 AM

No, of course I can't save myself anymore. You are so stupid, people, I can't believe it. As if in the last, what, out of last I'm guessing seven games I got in more than half lynched on Day 1. But no, here we go again.

Aganzir · 10-11-2014, 05:29 AM

If it's any comfort, I think you're innocent.

Agan, you hit the nail on the head here.
