Doktor Von und Zum Quatsch- what is it in particular that you dislike about this party? So much so that you are feeling suicidal?

Rikae 08-12-2009 10:25 PM

Oh, sorry, I was just talking nonsense, wasn't I?

Hakon, I think you're absolutely right. The phantom is clearly gifted, we shall kill him toNight. Thank you for your help.

Ahem. I think that many of our illustrious companions are of the decided opinion that last-minute voting stampedes can be thought of, in certain circumstances including those in which a werewolf game is assigned a roman numeral, that is, designated as game number such-and-so, respectively, as the case may be, one of the highlights (or perhaps even the ultimate expression of) that which our friends a little-further-over-the-pond might refer to as the Werwolfspiel. In the event that this scenario I have so concisely outlined should be in all actuality the case, advocates of a chronologically challenged artificial deadline may find themselves faced with a task of unexpected difficulty in their (or his and her) efforts to obtain a general consensus that said deadline, which both exists and does not exist and is therefore haunted with its own spiritus or Geist (depending on whether the nature of a deadline can be better likened to that of air or fire respectively), shall be, as it were, both implemented and not-implemented.

Hakon, this is laughable. I'm sure many do fear him, I however do not and he would state as much too. Nay, when I said it I wasn't playing, at least I didn't think I was going to be admitted, so it was simple advice. It is still good solid advice. Lynch him on day 1 and you eliminate needless headaches. But now I think I will target you as my main candidate if for no other reason than you think I was afraid of the phantom...good ole tummy and me go way back to the beginning on this stuff so it really is almost insulting that you would say that :p

Lariren Shadow 08-12-2009 10:27 PM

A list before I decide to go off and do something instead of checking if this is updated every few seconds.

Mira: As been stated, posted first. Is asleep and possibly not around. She is entertaining not to be lynched on Day 1.

Fea: Went to bed as well. She generally gets lynched on Day 3 though.:D

Hakon: Has been posting as well.

Lari: Can not remember every person she has met and fails at spelling and lists. Obviously fails.

Candor Man: Needs nothing to be said about him. Came up with some interesting(and hopefully will be followed) suggestions.

Rikae: Votes for herself...sorry I suck with lists!

Alona: Is posting. Very suspicious.:p

I will be the first to admit that I put phantom down as one of the person that I feared in my survey. From what I've heard, he'd be an awesome baddie - or a quite amusing gifted!

That's not why he said it. So why should we lynch phantom?

Because, unlike other phantoms, he can speak with a Nebraskan accent.

Which failed rather epically, really. I felt kind of bad, because we'd say hello and then hang up again, so we never really got to talk. Rubbish.

Erm, I mean....your mom's talked on the phone with Sally.

(Also, Tum and I went to high school together and I've met Phantom a couple times since we only live a couple hours away from each other. I've talked to Shasta on the phone several times, got jelly babies from Mistress Mith, texted Nilp who knows how many times, and I lived with Mnemo last semester in college. Oh, and Agan, et. al. and Formie sent me a rather lovely letter this summer, bless them. I've also exchanged Christmas cards with a bunch of Downers and sent Kath (and Brinn, if I ever get around to buying a stamp) a card for her birthday, which Phantom-

GET ON WITH IT!

....never mind. You get the idea.)

I'll be here for probably another couple hours then I need to go to bed. On that note, busy day tomorrow so I'll be voting early (or not at all, though I'd really like to, but it all depends) because I likely won't have internet all evening because I'll be at a friend's going away party.

Let's see here...

I can't see casting away Butterfingers (Brin). Her destructive powers could be extremely useful, like if Dark Monarch builds some sort of death ray that needs to be mangled.

Leaf Man (Hakon) would be valuable in forest spy-type missions.

Hover Girl (Lari) could come in handy if there is a booby-trapped floor to get across.

Athlete's Foot Man (Morm) would be very handy in survival situations with his ability to produce something edible from nothing.

If they start looking shifty, then naturally I'll change my position, but for now I'd like to keep these folks out of the noose. And actually, speaking of noose... how exactly are we going to do away with our daily selections? I don't think we even have a rope handy, and it doesn't appear that any of you are the weapon-toting superhero types.

Rikae 08-12-2009 10:33 PM

Okay, one more post like this and my vote will automatically and unendingly go towards Nerwen until she is lynched...either that or I will skip reading any and all of her posts.

Tummy, whatever did you feed these young-uns to make them pander to you so? You, to be sure, are eating it up, but when I read it anything I have just eaten up wants to come back up. Gah!

That's because you're weirdly (sort of) dyslexic. And have super powers.

Explain please. And do it forward. You've proven you can type backwards (though you made a couple of errors dearie), but as I have expressed no great talent at reading your chosen method of communication, perhaps you could shift for a bit out of consideration.

I suspect they've read every game I've ever played in. If they did so, their behavior is to be expected.

Ordinarily I would have answered, "I dunno", but Candor Man does not dance around questions. He may refuse to answer, but he does not deceive.

Seriously, Newen, could you please stop? I know how hard it is - I tried typing backwards, too, and sort of failed. But I like to read over everyone's post. Any future posts of yours I'm considering just skipping over... :(

(That last bit was nearly very awkward. I'm tired and it looked quite wrong for a moment.)



Perhaps, if you spell things backwards, you could also type it the right way if it's important, for the people who don't have the skill of gnitirw sdrawkcab. Just a thought. :)

Seeing as an "Omaha accent" is basically the lack of an accent, that hardly seems like a compliment.

So, are you saying they shouldn't?

I specifically told them to leave codes that could only be pointed out, not actually seen by reading (in other words, very very low risk- no risk if they do it right). The clues would be to prove their identities should it be necessary come lynch time (or to challenge a false claim).

That is a good idea, and not a trap. So says Candor Man.

Aye, but that's a gamble of long odds, ain't it? There's never a guarantee of coming back, but passing on, that's dead certain.

(Aka I'm probably going to die at some point anyway, so I may as well have my jollies. Besides, it added to the effect, so nyah.)


I need to sort through stuff, but for now, believe it or not, I think Hakon looks fishy. He seems too....eager, or something. Heck if I know, but it's off to me. And since I'm not evil this time I've no idea what he is, and that bothers me.

EDIT: x'd with Boro. What the heck is that?!
