Hahaha! :D To be fair, it didn't look like sabotage to me, just a miscommunication!

Yeah that's true I suppose. It's just that I won't have time to explode for very much longer. :(

Legate of Amon Lanc 06-08-2015 04:28 PM

With Nog here. I mean I would even give the benefit of doubt to our resident Wolves, but there are still at least two of them, and maybe it is time for experiments, but Nerwen already does have one vote, and I'd at least want to make it so that we aren't overruled in voting.

Nogrod 06-08-2015 04:29 PM

I'm done.

++ Nerwen

Good night and good luck!

Aganzir 06-08-2015 04:29 PM

Whatever info scheme the village can think of, Nerwen is our safest bet. Even if they spend half the DAY talking about it, it's still least chance they'll interpret it as meaning something it doesn't.

Rikae 06-08-2015 04:30 PM

It's dinnertime here, so I won't be able to help explode either for a bit.

I also have a bad feeling that wolf-Form and/or wolf-Eomer are well aware and laughing at us.

Some bizarre compulsion is driving me to point out that you guys just filled an entire page in less than half an hour. :D

GOOD. I hope that helps them realise the idiocy of leaving this for the last couple of hours.

Much love to the living,
a very tired European

:D

Aganzir 06-08-2015 04:33 PM

LOMMY! :D

About them checking the Dead thread - even if they are checking, who is checking it? How many of them are online? And how much? And would they share their observation with the rest? (Wolves wouldn't.)

They won't notice that we "exploded" - I doubt that. Since they can't check the thread, I doubt they are refreshing the page every half a minute, they won't be able to tell if in the last five minutes it was one, three, five or ten new posts.

Silence is the only way we can communicate, and that requires at least an hour of silence or something. Preferably more.

So yeah. I think Nerwen it is, and let's hope for the best. Also for the best lynch from the villagers.

Aganzir 06-08-2015 04:36 PM

Lommy is being poetic! Form and morm, Mith and Kath!

Aganzir 06-08-2015 04:38 PM

phantom, are you still here?

the phantom 06-08-2015 04:41 PM

I was being quiet. Guess that plan is scratched. :p

Aganzir 06-08-2015 04:43 PM

Guess so.

Can your phone do international texts (or have you got whatsapp)? Because I'm not going to set an alarm but if something urgent requires my presence, I could give you my number.

Aganzir 06-08-2015 04:43 PM

The things I do for werewolf. :rolleyes: :D

Aganzir 06-08-2015 04:45 PM

Wait Lommy has an idea!

What if we just upgrade Firefoot's scheme [original version] from yesterDay:

(just deleted dead people from the voting options and replaced the phantom and Greenie with Rikae and Legate)

If Nog is a wolf, give your extra vote to Form or McCaber
If Nog is innocent, give your extra vote to Nerwen
If Rikae is a wolf, give your extra vote to Boro
If Rikae is innocent, give your extra vote to Lommy
If Legate is a wolf, give your extra vote to Eomer or morm
If Legate is innocent, give your extra vote to Nilp or shasta
If Rune is a wolf, give your extra vote to Mith or Kath
If Rune is innocent, give your extra vote to Sally

I think this will create the least confusion, in case the dead have started voting already (TIMEZONES) and I don't think it's implausible they went with Firefoot's scheme again if the person they scried was on it...

I also strongly suggest figuring this out in the first half of the Day toMorrow.

So is it Shasta time again? :rolleyes: :D

Success tp success!!!

I feel confident in confessing now that this whole convoluted game is actually an elaborate ploy orchestrated by the phantom to get Aganzir's number.

Already happened, dear sir, already happened.

And now looking at the threads from the outside: it's right! A moment ago we had the same amount of posts, now we have over 40 more... :eek:

That being said... Lommy just posted a kind of a list. Upgraded Firefoot list. Does it make sense? Because if it does, we could still try to pull it off.

I am actually all for it, if we can do it. Wow that would be a last-minute brilliance. (I just hope Shasta doesn't vote some nonsense.)

:D :D :D

I have been laughing maniacally for the last minute or so.

(Hope I don't wake Greenie up.)

the phantom 06-08-2015 04:49 PM

Indeed, Kuru. Phase one of the plan complete.

Phase two is much more complicated, believe it or not. But when one considers the importance of passing on superior genetics, no amount of planning and plotting is too much.

the phantom 06-08-2015 04:51 PM

But no, I won't be texting you. When I absolutely must I talk on my phone (cutting off the conversation as quickly as possible). No texting. I don't like for people to feel they have an easy way of contacting me.

But I still want the number of course. Kuru nailed it.

Roger! Phase Two initiated!

I will begin assembly of the space ship's booster rockets and start an RPG thread about a lost dog in Bywater at once!!!!

I would have your babies if you made this much effort plotting it.

Anyhow. I'm going to PM my number to you and you will text me, no matter how little you like it, if you need me to vote.

Aganzir 06-08-2015 04:54 PM

Alternatively I could just vote for Shasta again. Boy he must feel popular. :smokin:

Rikae 06-08-2015 04:54 PM

So, Lommy's posted a viable plan now:

If Rune is innocent, give your extra vote to Sally

Do we have the numbers to safely go for Shasta now?

Legate of Amon Lanc 06-08-2015 04:55 PM

I fear I don't want to know anything more.

But does this mean I should try to cast my vote for Shasta? And then trust our esteemed mostly-non-Europeans to do something about it? And whoever isn't going to comply shall be considered enemy of the state henceforth?

I would say, go ahead and vote. And if also e.g. phantom votes, I will follow. Deal?

:D

I want to vote for Shasta but who's to say he doesn't vote for somebody we don't want to? What if we accidentally cause a tie? It's difficult because nobody else has voted.

Of all the people on the Living thread, I am not that worried about Shasta. I think we just have to do the shot in the dark. After all, with Nerwen it is kind of the same possibility.

Aganzir 06-08-2015 04:59 PM

Then again Shasta is here now and looks like he may be voting for Nilp. I wouldn't mind.

Aganzir 06-08-2015 04:59 PM

Kuru can I authorise somebody to vote on my behalf if I want to go to sleep?

That's fine by me. Let's do it. Rikae? Phantom? (Or whoever is around apart from you, too?) Are you up for voting shasta?

Aganzir 06-08-2015 05:01 PM

Also it makes me laugh that Nog voted for Nerwen because in the current plan, that would prove his innocence. :D

Rikae 06-08-2015 05:01 PM



Greenie
voted for Nerwen
Nog
voted for Nerwen

Left to vote:
the phantom
(Nerwen-"dreamed"? innocent)
Rune Son of Bjarne
Aganzir
(hunter)
Macalaure (wolf)
Rikae
Legate of Amon Lanc
(known innocent)
Loslote (wolf)
Firefoot
(one of Nerwen's innocents)
Lalaith


So, four presumably innocent, two wolves, one unknown, and me.

I'd say it's safe, then:

++Shasta

Rikae 06-08-2015 05:03 PM

Gah! Once again I can't count!

Two unknown (Rune and Lalaith). But if the rest of us vote Shasta, we don't need to worry about them anyway.

I WOULDN'T BE READING THE BLOODY THREAD if you'd just acted sooner.

the phantom 06-08-2015 05:08 PM

I want to see who Shasta votes for.

And no, Agan, it's not that I won't, it's that I can't. I do not text. Sorry.

Also, it's nice to hear that my plotting efforts will be rewarded. I, and all future inhabitants of Earth, thank you.

Yes, should be good. And whosoever doth not comply, they shalt be considered the Enemy.
