Here and catching up! I'll be playing while writing a 10-page paper for tomorrow, so I might actually end up being around at DL again... Anyway, off to read, I've only skimmed and it looks like more than half the village has revealed as something!

Aww, my heart, I'm honored you chose me to counter-reveal against. Warms my heart, it does.

Lottie, darling, are you sure you aren't a wolf? Sally wasn't countered until today (when the pack is in danger), G55 hasn't been countered at all, and she confirms me, so...

Oh my.

Everything looks pretty clear: the original revealments, with all the oddities involved, look way more believable than the ones by Nerwen & Kit which were both lame and late.

Still I am feeling something's wrong here.

I'm going to read toDay again and try to clear this mess in my head.

If the original revelations are true you more or less have to be a wolf Lottie. I can see your careful wording that you're "pretty" sure, not a 100% sure then?

I thought I was rather obvious with hinting about Nerwen and Pitch, at least if you go back and look at my earlier posts again. But neither you nor Nog seem see the clues. So either I was not as obvious as I thought, or you are denying fact to try to avoid a village victory.

Problem is, we don't know who's the ordo, and therefore don't know which people are the wolves.

Yesterday I thought Sally was the cobbler for sure. This village can't have two hunters afterall. She had to be the cobbler, right? What could a wolf gain with a false reveal when no apparent danger was presented? Then Bom latched onto it, classic wolf behavior to my mind, but he was innocent. I thought he saw the cobbler and was trying to hint to her that they were on the same team.
And today "hunter" Sally reveals Nerwen as a wolf before the seer does? Nonsense! Three people say Nerwen is guilty. One of those is orchestrated by the wolves on Night 4.
The following conversation happened between me and sally yesterDay (I'm exaggerating a bit for fun's sake, but only a bit):

Sally: are you the Seer?
G55: I won't tell you directly because I don't know your intentions, but I may or may not be.
Sally: I'm the hunter.
G55: I think I can trust you. I accept your words about who you are, and I think you know who I am. Nerwolf is evil.
Sally: Yes, I know you're the Seer, and I trust you. I know you dreamed Nerwolf.

Did I miss anything, Sally?

I protected Sally last Night, so I know she's not a wolf, anyway. I guessed the pack would feel it was safe to go after her because of her vote on me. Of course she could still be the cobbler– I've got no way of knowing, obviously.
Liar. Not that I blame you, you being a known wolf and all...


ToDay the wolves are already spinning the association/reverse psychology web that I expected from Nog yesterDay. How do I know if Nerwen is accusing a fellow to make her look good, or expecting us to think this way, accusing an innocent?

One more thing: anyone who does not vote Nerwen (the only known wolf) toDay is evil.

Okay. I read both yesterDay and then went through G55's posts from D1 to this Day to see about her claim & how this trio emerged from there to answer some of my worries... and I must admit I was more or less answered by that labour.

So it seems this will end up in a last minute rush votes whichever way we look at it as with Greenie being the cobbler she will know G55 has it correct - and interestingly she has said she can be around at the DL...


Heh, I was almost going to write here why I came to the conclusion I did but only then realised that it wouldn't interest any of you the least as I'm the only one who doesn't know the situation... and thus am the only one interested in getting confident about how things are.

Things being as I think they are I must raise my (imaginary) hat to you guys for making quite risky leaps of faith and getting them right: that's not an everyday thing in werewolf. And I do have to add this still... it is that sudden unwavering confidence that still kind of nags at the back of my head telling me it can't be true and that it was too smooth, like you had planned it together.

But then again, no ranger-Nerwen would have made that first reaction toDay suggesting we adopt Sally's plan from yesterDay toDay. And sure any real gifted would have made a feistier counter-reveal - had there been one.


I'll refrain from voting for a moment if Boro decides to reveal some twisted new dynamics to this game - or if someone does something considerably mind-boggling (I still have a few essays to read so I'm not able to go to sleep just yet - but I can't afford to stay up until the DL either as it would leave with three hours of sleep).

So a vote for Nerwen coming in ½-1 hours.


EDIT: X'd with Galadriel

A couple of things I don't understand about this mess. (Only a couple? No, a good many, actually! But - err - a couple I think we could use some clarification on.)

He sure knows how to confuse people. I don't want to be led around by him to a wrong direction.

Gal, if you were the Seer, why wouldn't you have dreamed Nog last Night? Or any Night? You seem quite convinced he's evil, yet you say you haven't dreamed of him. Would be a very risky thing to do as a Seer, I'd say, considering how close the village would read your posts in case you died.

Second thing. Both Gal and Shasta seem convinced Kit is a wolf, though she doesn't appear on Gal's dream list either. I'm sure this has been explained before, but I'd like you to do it once again, please.

Third thing. The shared "knowledge" of Shasta, Sally and Gal that Nerwen is a wolf already before the "Seer" revealed her just doesn't make sense, full stop.

Fourth thing. Just speculating here. People seem to build two wolf packs - or two gifted packs - but what is neither of the two "packs" is actually there? What if half of one and half of the other are bluffing?


EDIT: x-ed with Noggins

Surprise me and do not vote Shasta... and there will be no "who gets in the last vote" game of seconds toDay.

That way we could do this fair and straight toMorrow and not let the chance decide.

Nice try, mate. The thing is, why would I? Why hand the Day over to someone I know is lying?

I am not the cobbler. Gal is. And if you haven't realized what that makes me, please don't say it aloud.

Love you Greenie! I mean you more or less removed my last suspicion.

++ Nerwen


It's then up to the boldest watcher for the last possible second to send in a qualified vote. An interesting way to decide a werewolf-game...

Maybe we could call this a draw?

The Eye What I said and why I said it:

My only clue I have been able to give on Day1 was my vote.

Day2:

I wrote 2 suspicion list, one at the beginning and one at the end of the Day. And they look pretty much the same. I'm quoting the first one:

Quote:

Pitch: I didn’t locate any fur on him. Looks innocent enough to me.

Bom: is Bom. I didn’t expect anything other than silliness from him. Can’t say anything about his alignment, though.

Nerwen: hard to say anything about her just yet. But this game she doesn’t make me nervous or scare me like in previous games, though I try to keep in mind how deadly sharp she can be to either side.

Kit, Shasta, and Greenie are sensible, and hopefully innocent.

Nog: sometimes made neat points, but at other times he has been plain illogical. I don’t want to condemn him right away because of that, though; he might be an innocent who looks at things differently than I do, or he might be a wolf who left some holes in his persuasion, or a cobbler who is just messing with our heads and taking our attention off the real wolves. Currently I think the last two are more likely.

Lottie: sweet-tongued. Defensive. I understand her defensiveness, but I haven’t played enough with her to tell if her tone is normal. I guess it is, since no one commented on it before.

Agan: is confusing. Jokes are jokes, but by the end of Day 1 you do stop fooling around with obvious silly bluffing. What’s up with your wolf-packs?
You might have noticed that here, just like on the second list, I am uncomitted about anyone except for Pitch (whom I've dreamed that Night), and I single out Nerwen, saying that she's "deadly sharp". Also, she doesn't make me nervous, because I know her role already and don't have to worry about puzzling her out.

The following was written so that in the event of my death someone would be able to put 2+2 together:

Quote:

Bolding here to emphasise the key words. Remember how I said that Nerwen is "deadly sharp"?

Night/Day3

Was about to dream Nog, but decided that it's unefficient since he's in the centre of attention and likely to be lynched the next Day. So I dreamt Shasta instead.

Quote:

Or did he? I'm going over his posts.
Here I mourn for ordo!Pitch because I felt like I have hinted too much about him, thus revealing both our identities (but the wolves didn't want to lose Nerwen so early on, so they let me live). But there was still a possibility that I had nothing to do with it and that Pitch was killed because he suspected Kit. But my dream was made a waste either way.

And here comes my conversation with sally:

Quote:

Are you an ordo? Or do you have a specific role? Please don't say which one, and of course don't expect me to necessarily believe you, but answer nonetheless.

And if you're sensible you wouldn't pay too much attention to that last sentence, because everyone would tell you that, regardless of role.
Quote:

(the reveal.... kinda goes over 2 posts)

I nitpick Nerwen's posts trying to find a reason for her to look suspicious enough to be lynched. That continues for a few posts. Greenie and Kit also get a couple pokes here and there. Call me a hypercrite. I am. (ie I accused Nerwen of grabbing every strand of other's posts, and did it myself with hers)

Quote:
Originally Posted by Galadriel55 View Post

Suspicion list:

GUILTY
Nerwen. Don't like how desperately she wants sally ot of the way.
Nog. Impersonating the Seer. Most likely cobbler.

INNOCENT (ish)
Sally. I trust her.
Shasta. He looks like an innocent who tries to do his best, and really he did even more than other innocents with that Aganalysis, although it turned out wrong. It did not come out of nowhere.

Unknown
Everyone else.

...

Edit 2: Good luck, village! You'll need it! Just keep your eyes open.
Need I explain this one, after I bolded out the important parts?

Quote:
Originally Posted by satansaloser2005 View Post

It's not like it matters now anyway.
I took this to mean that "for the record", sally guessed at my role, and believed me.

Night4:

Between Kit and Greenie chose to dream Greenie.


After seeing all this, do you not trust that I'm the Seer and that Nerwen, Shasta, and Greenie are who I said they are?

Ah, you've come to muddle up the waters for us...

But I'll clarify anyways just in case some other baddies would want to jump on your questions.

Quote:
Gal, if you were the Seer, why wouldn't you have dreamed Nog last Night? Or any Night? You seem quite convinced he's evil, yet you say you haven't dreamed of him. Would be a very risky thing to do as a Seer, I'd say, considering how close the village would read your posts in case you died.
True thing that it was risky, but I believed that I left enough clues for the village to figure out who my dream was.

And I was inches away from sending Nog's name in twice. But the first time decided that the less in-the-spotlight Pitch was more dangerous, and some things that he said rang alarm bells. Next Night I actually sent his name in, but then realised that it is an unefficient dream; I expected him to be the topic of discussion on D3, and possibly the lynch. So before Boro replied to me I asked him if I could change my pick to Shasta, and he kindly allowed me.

Quote:
Second thing. Both Gal and Shasta seem convinced Kit is a wolf, though she doesn't appear on Gal's dream list either. I'm sure this has been explained before, but I'd like you to do it once again, please.

Third thing. The shared "knowledge" of Shasta, Sally and Gal that Nerwen is a wolf already before the "Seer" revealed her just doesn't make sense, full stop.
Hinting.

Fourth thing. Just speculating here. People seem to build two wolf packs - or two gifted packs - but what is neither of the two "packs" is actually there? What if half of one and half of the other are bluffing?
Shasta and myself are real gifteds. Nerwen is a real wolf. This fact is as solid as stone.

I have a bad feeling that the wolves are not going t risk it and will vote Nerwen to look good toMorrow. Not that I mind extra Nerwen votes, but they don't necessarily mean anything.


Gonna look at all the "question mark"s' posts to see if they could contain evidence of the player's role.

Edit: xed with Lottie*2

And what if you don't vote Nerwen on DL? Shasta is the only person in this game (except for myself, but I already voted) whom I can trust 100%. No, forget that. 200%.

Thanks, Lottie. Until just now, I really wasn't for certain who the wolf was between you and Nog. Much appreciated.

Lame.

Then again, I suppose I deserve it. Until Shasta's reveal, I didn't trust you either. I totally thought you were a wolf trying to butter me up.

Well, technically, you can trust her based on process of elimination. The only other person the Hunter could possibly be is Kit, and... I mean, it's Kit.

(Just teasin', Kit! Love ya! Have an apple?)

Alright!

As it happened, I lied. I won't be able to be online at the DL - my class starts at 8:00pm exactly. Kit, it's up to you now. Make me proud.

Does something sound illogical here, or is it only me?

There is only one ordo left. If you claim to be the ordo, the only way the above statement could work is if you believed Kit's reveal, which looks furry (the reveal does).

Combined with your desperate plea to be the last one to vote, you really do look like a wolf.

Edit: xed with Wolflote and sally

Hurray! One more wolf discovered!

I'm gonna bold her name on the vote list in my previous post

Here and waiting. You wolves won't win this one. I owe Gwaihir thirty pounds of birdseed if you do. I can't afford that!

We're left with Kit, Nog, and sally as wolf, hunter, and ordo. Sally and Kit claim huntership, Nog doesn't claim anything. My conclusion is that he must be the ordo. And I trust sally much more than Kit, so...

But at least one thing is logically certain: Nog is an ordo.

Edit: xed since my last
