And I want to know from Rikae, if you really are the GW, why in heaven's name have you declared now?

But you said you knew he wasn't the EW. How else could you know for certain?

Or I said yesterDay, you can lynch me, and then you'll know for certain that I'm on the up and up. If Rikae is telling the truth, though, it will be up to you- lynch a definite baddie, or lynch a possible baddie, but at least you'll know if you can trust her or not. Of course, if I'm not a wolf toDay, I may be toMorrow, and you won't know for certain. Edit: Cross posted. Rikae, you can't just expect to lynch Legate with out telling us who he is. And Lal's got a point- why reveal now?

Legate, have you been killing off our family? You are SO grounded.

Okay, I knew we've had big exciting wizard reveal, but I have to say this doesn't really affect my last post about Cailin.
I still don't trust her as far as I can throw her, and think she could very well be a wolf.

I'm back, I'm back, I'm pink, I'm pink, ... I'm in-vi-si-ble! (Right! All of us are! Oh, how fitting. I should praise myself.)
First, one thing about our... sorry: about MY Sally. Because her posts are where I finished last time. I know she is usually chatty a lot, out-of-game-chatty a lot, but it makes me wonder, ooohyeahyeah, it really makes me wonder, tum-dum-tu-tu-tum-tum (okay, I'm stopping that already, what's up with me? :sillyness: ), if she isn't overdoing it a little in this particular game. Although this game is particularly suitable for that, but still, I am starting to wond... ahem, if there isn't the intention of hide behind lots of banter in it. Although it's, like, 25% probable from my point of view that it could be so. So not much. But watchin' it. All right... what next. Lalaith! She is actually playing? I said something about submarines yesterDay, but if there are any which are really, really deep, then it is her. Unbelievable. I knew she was a subject to vote and such, but if I try to remember anything about her from this game, I don't recall anything. Quote:

That's very radically formulated, but it technically sums what I think as well (well, I already said above). Hmm. TP is acting so... friendly, so to say, rationally (hm, if it's the right word in his case :-P - but let's say, I can identify with a lot he says - and I mean mainly: he is not building up - or seems not to build - baseless cases. He seems to be careful with this), I would think him innocentish. If he is cleverly manipulating us, is another thing, but right now my scales weigh him more to the innocent side. Brinniel seems to make sense (post 652, for example) and I am letting my doubt off of her more, also after what Aganzir said yesterDay in her parting words (I said before that I am inclined to think she named innocent people. Besides, concerning Brinn and me, she only repeated what she said before about the two of us, so it was not a momentarily made-up thing). Quote:

Okay, okay, nothing. Well, it's a good point about the EW letting only some wolves know each other, and I have been thinking about it as a possibility before too (I think I even said it somewhere). However, I am still closer to the idea that if Lommy is not innocent right now, then she was before and was scried into a wolf this Night. Isabell actually seems to make lot of sense and seems quite genuine. See, Izzy, now that you post more, or longer posts at least, I can get some reading of you (and it's quite positive this far).

Ok. Our WW kills so far have been Volo on Night One, Mac and Ka on Night 2. Like I said before, possibly Volo was a GW-hunt kill but not I think the second two. Also, I've read through the rules and I don't see if the EW is told if the reason the kill has been unsuccessful. A non-kill could be a Ranger protect, after all. I still think my theory could hold. Rikae running away without answering my question or even saying why she won't answer it, is worrying me.

Look, if Rikae knows that Legate is the EW, not a wolf, then I don't want to lynch him. He won't die, and it will just take up our llynch space so that we don't lynch a wolf.
But if Legate is a wolf then we should definitely lynch him. Unfornately, Rikae didn't specify. And she didn't tell us why she revealed. Was she in danger? I haven't finished reading through the thread yet....

Which is why, from her hints that she has found the EW, I suspect that she has, in fact, not found the EW. And also suspect that she's not telling the truth about being the GW. Why reveal now? I'm going over and over it, and it isn't making sense to me. If you really know the EW already, why not hold your tongue and try to get the drop on him tomorrow? But now the EW will know it's the last chance he has tonight. And what if the night goes well for him? Then he knows precisely who to challenge. No, no, no... I'm sitting here at home, and in front of me is a chart with listed behaviors of the EW and GW- things they would and wouldn't do in specific situations. And Day 3, down a gifted, revealing, and even hinting that you know the EW... that definitely does not match up with my list. I am severely confused.

I was too afraid you'd be scried by the GW in the same night that I scried you. (Which would lead to everyone knowing who I am.) You were simply too desirable early on. And later on, I was distracted by Gurthang's lynch list.

Which... seems like a bad reason to reveal, to me. Sorry to question you, Mumsie. But is Legate that important that you had to out yourself? Or were you afraid of the EW challenging you before you could direct the village? Or... well why the heck did you reveal and then leave until the DL? You know we're just going to have tons of questions for you.

That is awkward. Hmm... Rikae is as sneaky and devious as I am, but while I know I would totally pull this stunt as the EW, I'm not so sure about Rikae. We have different ideas on what's bold and what's insane....

I'd like to get Legate's take on all this, actually.
If he's an innocent being set up by a lying Rikae, then I suspect we'll be getting an impassioned defense. I'm not so sure what he'd do as a wolf, though. It might be reason to clam up and not say too much more, as anything he says from now on can (and will) be held against his fellow wolves or the EW. Just a guess. So..... Legate?

Wait! Do you think that the EW may have scried Rikae last night? If her identity is already known, that also means that there was no wolf turned last night. And she would have no reason to hide. Which means if Legate is a wolf and we lynch him, the wolves will be down significantly.

++Lommy
I've read most of the posts today but probably not the last 30 or 40. Anyway, I've been showing my home as we are trying to sell it. Lommy seems a bit off lately but the impression I'm getting is that something is up with Rikae and/or Lommy. I've been going with gut a lot more than hard rationality.

Okay, I felt the need to say this real quickly-
If this is a bluff, GW, do not take the bait and reveal! Not unless you really honestly feel like you are ready. This might be a ploy set up the Night before by the EW to get the GW to reveal. Perhaps the EW told his WW Rikae, "If this person or this person looks like they're headed for a lynching, reveal as the GW and get Legate lynched." Which of course means that Rikae might be a WW and even know the identity of a WW or two! In which case we should not lynch her! We should give the GW the opportunity to scry her and turn her back to the good side.

At the same time, if Rikae IS the GW, and was scried last night, then she already knows our odds are good. Really good. If we get a wolf today.
Ugh, my brain is foggy from medication. Can anyone work out those numbers? (Not phantom because I still think he's a wolf.) Edit: Cross posted. You're right Lal. Then it really doesn't make sense.

-- Her whole reason, it would seem, for claiming to be the GW, is so we'll obey her and lynch Legate. -- She is, obviously, giving us no direction beyond that. -- Does a GW gain more or lose more by outing herself just to catch one little wolfie? -- Who was garnering lots of suspicion ANYWAY? -- But a Bad Momma could achieve a lot by claiming to be the GW, telling the village who to lynch. The GW is then forced to consider letting a (presumably) innocent Legate die, or reveal. -- It's a lose lose situation for the village, if this is the case. -- So, since a false reveal is a bad thing for the village, it's a distinct possibility that it might (or has) happened. Wow. Sorry Rikae, but as of right now, I DON'T know what to do. Should I trust you? Who else do I trust? Even if you're lying, I really don't think the GW is going to reveal... e might be willing to sacrifice Legate. So we seem to be on our own trying to figure this out. Quote:

Roa. Please listen.
Rikae could not have been scried last night. There were four wolves in the narration. The EW has not found the GW, either by wolf or by scrying. That is one of the reasons why it is so weird that Rikae has revealed.

Okay, here are the possibilities:
A. Rikae is telling the Truth. Legate is guilty. We should lynch him. B. Rikae is lying. Legate is innocent. If we lynch him and he we find this out, then we will know for certain that Rikae is evil. GW and her crew can handle it that Night, or we can handle it the Next Day. C. Rikae is lying about being the GW, but not about Legate. We should lynch him because we have a wolf. If Legate is a wolf, then we can't know if A or C is correct. However, if he is innocent, then we get a definite answer on Rikae. Sorry, my dear boy, but you've been Naughtily killing off our family. Shame on you.

Yes, Lal, I heard you. You're right. My med-fogged brain is moving a little slowly at the moment, but you're right. The GW could not have been scried last Night.

Well, summa summarum: Rikae left us a nice parting gift by disappearing and leaving us to deal with the confusion she caused in the hours before she returns. How nice of her. Of course from my personal stance I am inclined to think she's up to no good, had she said explicitely why she thinks that I am evil, I will be more sure on where to put her (like I said, if she is going to say that her Seer saw me, then it's clear she lies). I would say... well, there it is, she isn't around. If she were around, we could question her, eventually lynch her if she looked guilty, whatever. This way... this way the only think we can do, concerning her case, is waiting. Otherwise... well, if she were the GW, she could be probably challenged toMorrow. I'd guess if she is a Wolf, f.ex. she may have been instructed by the EW to impersonate GW toDay (or thought of that herself). That would make sense in order to frame someone, thus gain one day more (if she succeeded), simply a form of tactic. I don't think she'd be the EW, why would she reveal, right... Or could she, for some reason? Only if she knew she is known, or something like that, which I find improbable.
What else? My thoughts are somewhat unsystematic now. We can focus on something else while she's away. It is also possible she is EW and thinks I am a Gifted and wants me lynched. Or that I am GW (I still don't get why the EW should want to know who the GW is, but anyway - if the wolves had a good starting position, she could choose to). Or then, also one variant, that she were a GW and thought I am EW and wanted to use the lynch to find out. But now I should not have said that as she can say that was what she meant. Well then she should believe me when I say I am innocent. Anyway. That would be probably it, ladies and gentlemen, the referee thanks you for your attention.

Or we could all do as Rikae suggests and vote for her.
Then we don't waste a possible innocent, and we'll know if she's a wizard or not. She's either telling the truth or she's on the evil team. Either way it doesn´t matter if she´s lynched.
