Hello, quarantine house! Tell you what, this lockdown thing is a real pain in the... legs? Or is that just the arrows?

Hi G55! Sorry for killing you. I'm terrible at spotting even evil Gifted, and besides, I had other priorities.

Hi, Rikae! Hah, I really shot myself in the... well, thighs... with that Mac-Zil post, didn't I? The hilarious part is, I wasn't being artificial. I didn't need to be! I'd already established I suspected both of them. I was just genuinely shocked that Zil had posted so much when he seemed to have said so little.

I actually, honestly have done my best to follow the evidence, even knowing that it wasn't true; the extent of my (conscious) wolf-editing has been ignoring a couple of things that looked sketchy. I mean, believe that or not as you will...

I'm kind of offended by Kitanna’s 'I would use profanities' post. I hope she means 'to intensify my Yes!', rather than 'I want to insult/swear at hS'.

And before you ask: I have no idea who the rest of the pack will kill, except that Kitanna pretty much claimed Ranger, so, y'know.

That's quite ok. That's the point of my role, right? I was deathly afraid of accidentally killing one of you guys on D1 by poking around too much - partially the reason why I voted Rikae in the end.

Galadriel55 · 05-07-2020, 04:02 PM

And welcome, boss!

Well, it might have been nice to keep you around a little longer.

(I've read the QT logs - you abstained? Oh my stars, nobody will believe it...)

I haven't gone back and looked to see which of the Pack voted to lock me up - too scared to find out they never liked me anyway... :O

PS: Just reread the opening blurb here... Hareth was really foresighted to insist that the infirmary still gets a vote, wasn't I?

I can hardly disagree, and if I had a tad more knowledge - or wolf spotting skills - I would have done things differently too. Still, Kit happened, so maybe it's a worthy trade-off.

Thing is, I did not disagree with the vote. In fact, I liked it better the longer the Day went on. But abstaining rather than confirming the vote just makes is more fun. It's the small things that bring us delight on this thread.

Not to put any pressure on you, but - yeah, basically all pressure on you. Sorry.

Now I have to rethink my wolf pack theories in light of D2 voting.

Maybe! I guess we'll see if she joins us toMorrow.

Since this is the thread where your fondest wish is to be outnumbered by the other side (unless it's to be The Only Good Cobbler, hi Rikae), I can see that one.

You enjoy that.

I need sleep - arrows in my legs, etc. At least this time I know where the pressure will be coming from...!

(Are you Moon-Moon or am I? Either way... yeah. XD Or perhaps the real Moon-Moon was inside us all along.)

That thought passed my mind, although only after I had already posted the last narration...

Funnily enough, whoever joins you for Day3, there is still going to be a "baddie-order" in this house. Just thinking about the speculation before the game, whether everyone would just wait and listen to what the QT votes, and then "hide behind it".

Oh, imagine if Hui abstains too without offering up a candidate. The resulting discussion on the GT will be priceless.

...Why are you looking at me like that? I'm just cobbling away peacefully, I mean nobody any harm.

Well, depending on what the so-called Good Guys proffer up, maybe I just will... >:-D

Although my vote yesterday was received exactly as I'd hoped, I think toDay it would be more fun to give you two free rein. Don't mind me, I think I'll take a nap.

Which makes me wonder what they think about the other possible gifted I tried to flag for you guys - assuming you got the flag. I suppose one of them will be dead soon. Or none - if they wanna muddy the waters: if Kitanna doesn't die toNight, she might be a candidate for suspicion toDay.

Oh yes, that would "muddy the waters".

Well, I didn't personally get the flag, but then I'm barely able to figure out who the wolves are, let alone anyone else!

Ten minutes to go - who's it gonna be?

Phew! Then I can finally say aloud that I hope Nogrod, Nerwen, Balfrog and The Barrow-Wight keep doing a great job staying above suspicion!

RangerKit! Oh thank the Valar, now I don't have to spend all day pretending you might be a wolf.

Since I'm sure you're wondering, and these arrows through my legs take a certain amount of pressure off, you survived Night 2 because various wolves were pretty sure you were trying to cover for the real Ranger. Good thing (for the wolves) Zil brought you out into the open yesterday...
