tally

Lottie - morm
Nerwen - Mac
Greenie - Agan
Lalaith - Agan (2)
Lommy - Agan (3)
Legate - Greenie
McCab - Agan (4)
morm - Mac (2)

I'll be around for a little while longer because I need to pack for my weekend outing, but unless something drastic happens, I'll vote for Greenie. I'll be equally happy to vote for Mac to save my skin though because this bandwagon is ridiculous.

Well, you've kind of brought this attention on yourself, which isn't necessarily a bad thing (wanting to attract attention). But you also shouldn't be surprised when that attention gets turned against you.

*makes a mental joke to stop joking forever so nobody can misinterpret me* and my god that was an honest typo and probably better left that way.

But if I die I'll at least get to be with the only person who understands me.

Come now, you know how this dance works. You think it's some cheap injustice because you get caught by a slip of the fingers, a lapse of focus of not carefully combing your words. And the thieves at your door say "ah-ha we got you!" and that's all they harp on because that's all they have. But sometimes that is enough. We both understand the feeling of being robbed right under our nose, it makes our blood boil, but in the end what can you do? Tip your cap and silently think, next time we shall have a different dance.

And what a dance it shall be!

Anyway it's godawfully late (although there's something nostalgic about playing werewolf when the sun is rising) so...

++Greenie

Can't really think about this - or stay up - any longer and intuitively I feel worst about her.

I'm sorry about my lack of participation today, it's the combined result of being busy and having got way way way too little sleep these last several days. I promise to be better tomorrow if I'm still here, and if I'm not, well, do consider taking a look at the people who made it happen. *sprays mouth with silver paint*

Fellow players, our absent (Gwathagor) will not be joining us looking at the other thread. Is there a case for lynching him or would doing Kuru's housekeeping be just lazy? If he is an innocent we save lynching another innocent, if he is a wolf well..great.. if a gifted.. well I suppose Kuru would be less likely to reallocate it if we lynch him rather than leaving him Hors Concours

Don't worry about Gwath.

He's removed and I'll just tell you now that Excel made him an Ordo.

As much this seems like a bad break for us, I think it would be a waste to lynch Gwath. Just let his spirit leave the Barrow and hopefully find some rest.

Agan votes Green, hmm.

Both Green and Mac were listed as suspicious in her previous post, and she did narrow the choice down to them. Mac had 2 votes; Green had 1. Mac has garnered far more attention than Green. We might think voting Mac would give the better chance for Agan to avoid the noose one more time. But I suppose voting for Mac, as he was closest challenger to be today's lynch-candidate, would have looked too suspicious.

Latching on to Legate's strange case against Green might have proved a better option to save her skin; that is, if Green could have turned out to be another sleeper lynch like Nogrod was.

Right, I'll probably be around from now until closing if anyone wants a chat.

I've basically just been despairing about game mechanics all day and wondering how in Middle-earth we should be playing this game with so little info. But anyway:

The renewed suspicion of Aganzir today is taking much of my attention; she doesn't seem overly suspicious to me but she's once again the top suspect. Legate's lonely vendetta against Green is very curious and interesting: there's a fair chance that his intentions are pure but it reminds me all too much of a tactic I've pursued, with evil motive, in the past - focus with laserlike precision on a random villager of whom no-one else is taking notice.

So many people here it's hard for things to stand out.

I've just gone back and read his posts and, honestly, Legate's pursuit of Green is stranger than I had thought.

I would not presume to speculate on Green's loyalties at this stage, as I can hardly gauge a thing from her posts; I would not find it strange for anyone to have a hunch that she might be evil. It is the conviction in Legate's posts, however - constantly referring to her as most suspicious - which makes me take notice. Seems like he's acting as if he has a stronger case than he does.

Such behaviour is, of course, suicidal for a seer; but smart daytime survival tactics from a villager.
