Rikae said she would prefer not to be called a "prey" - so should we then hope for her sake she turns out a "predator"? :)

Actually we'd have all wolves hunted down if that were the case so why not.

But if you Nerwen have already asked to dream of me then it leaves us to check Rikae then?

Yes. And as you say, if by any chance either of you iturns out to be not "prey" we've practically solved the wolf-problem anyway.

So are you actually confessing your pack is dead and done with now? :)

Oh and welcome to our company morm! I think you can find many of your friends being already here. :)

Who started calling them Tweedlemorm and Tweedleform, anyway? I'll have to check.

Me, at 3 in the morning.

++Rikae

Kuru, can you call them something other than prey? :p

I'm kind of in the process of updating my night victim list with the new information, but I'm at work and have to switch between tabs every couple of words (and also do some actual work every once in a while :p). Will finish it asap though.

Lalaith (KILLED BY BORO) suspected: Legate ||| Aganzir, (Legate, Boro, Mac) /// Lottie, Mac
Lalaith found innocent: ||| Greenie, Nerwen, Lottie /// Firefoot, (Lommy, Nerwen, Mith - assuming Legate as the seer thesis was correct), (Eomer - didn't really say he was innocent, just that he had good points more than once)

(Nerwen presumably targeted by FANG.)

**

NIGHT 5 VICTIMS

Nerwen (KILLED PRESUMABLY BY BOTH FANG AND GRIP)

**

Need to look at morm and Lalaith's posts to find the third wolf. It would really help if we knew which kills they were responsible for. As I said before, a lot of traces back to Boro but not sure I want to start doubting him right now.

Also folks - remember that if Nilp survives toNIGHT, the more information we have for him the better.

That being said I need to get back to work, but I should actually be around in the evening. :)

Anyway, just very quickly: well done folks, and hello Morm (the only question I have for you is whether you were truly trying to be so horribly inefficient in delaying the village and dismissing your own scheme just at the moment they started to agree on it and thus trying to paralyze any of our involvement in the vote, or whether it was a pure coincidence; also are you responsible for the dead Europeans for the same reason?)...

It was rather fun to keep muddying the waters yesterday. :D

I have plenty to say about it, I won't bore you with all the details...it would be too long and drawn out...probably like two or three sentences and I couldn't in good faith add that much to this already incredibly long thread.

Nogrod 06-11-2015 06:57 AM

Morm, do you have anything to say about this possible confession of yours?

I can't believe you're forgetting a HUGE component of that game- one that transformed your so called "bungle" into a ringing triumph for Good. I mean, the four lynch victims that game were Wolf-Cobbler-Wolf-Wolf after all. That sounds like a pretty nice "finest hour", doesn't it?

(Nog was a Mod that game. Naria was the other Penguin.)

This actually inspired me to go to look at the thread again. You're right phantom, it was a wonderful game (even though I stank in it). Your brilliant Hunter masquerade, Valier's extraordinary psychic powers (and her placard routine against Ang) and of course all those fabulous philosophical deaths courtesy of Nog and Lommy.
What I always remememberd was that when I dreamed of Boro, Lommy sent me in reply a picture of a rockhopper penguin looking absolutely murderous.
It still makes me laugh even now, particularly when I visit the penguin pool at London zoo, (which is full of rockhoppers).

Ohh... those were the days *sigh*

I remember us searching for nice pics of different penguins to be used in the game... I think I can still remember that one. :)

I asked the Lord High Scorekeeper and he said no, it is a years long tradition now.

mormegil 06-11-2015 07:46 AM

So are we voting on who we want revealed? Could we reveal Kuru? Would he be predator or prey?

Nerwen 06-11-2015 08:08 AM

I can now confirm that Nog is an ordo.

A "prey"! :)

Well, anyway thanks Kuru for a quick deliverance.


Is there anything else but voting Rikae we could / should do toNight to prepare for toMorrow?

Whatever Boro's role he should be able to kill Form toNight - especially now that he knows Form is a wolf. If he doesn't do that I'm getting pretty uneasy with him - but hopefully the village will then see it as well.

It would be cool to have Nilp go back to the Living thread but if Sally was protected last Night then her chances to survive are pretty shallow.

With morm's pack already done away with (wishful but not ungrounded thinking) there might only be one pack left - and thence only one kill per Night (not including Boro). Could they target Boro? Like Form goes against Boro and vice versa this Night and what happens then? Both die?

Any good ideas who the last wolf is?

Unless it is Rikae which we'd learn as everyone has voted here... go for it people, vote as soon as you can so we can get some more info even as the Night is still going!

The food chain goes:

Grass -> Cow -> Dwarf -> Dragon

Therefore a Dwarf is both predator and prey. Is that what you meant?

Whenever I have bit of sparetime I think "better catch up on the dead thread", then I see the amount of posts and give up.

Today looks like it will be no different.
Sorry.

You're not in my pack, and we didn't kill you either. So unless Boro lied about killing me, you can't be a wolf.

A Little Green 06-11-2015 09:44 AM

++Rikae

Ahem. I'm still a bit confused as I skimmed more than read a lot of yesterDay on both threads. So - dead wolves are Lottie, Mac, Lalaith and morm, Form is a living wolf, and we don't know who the last one is, right? And Lottie and Mac are packmates, but do we know about the rest of them? Any confessions? :Merisu:

To hammer this again, now in the dead thread...do we know Nerwen is the seer? Have we checked her :D:p She never claimed it in the living thread

I'm pretty dubious about their reveal, but at least we'll get confirmation sooner than later. :rolleyes:

Nilp, I suppose, doesn't know my role now? That's a shame.

As for the final wolf, I'm leaning toward McC at the moment, but we need to look very carefully at Mith & Kath as well.

I suppose there's also the possibility that Eomer was the last member of the other pack and the game only continues because Boro is a werebear... :(

Also, I dreamed Nerwen last night and she isn't a Wolf. Seriously, I had a Downer dream last night! :)

The creative non-fiction department at the university was having some sort of conference/workshop thing and folks were submitting pieces to try and win various cash prizes. I had to rate the papers in order to weed out the bottom half before I sent them on to the department head, the final judge. After a couple of so-so efforts, I grabbed the next paper and was shocked to find the name at the top was "Nerwen".

I wondered what the chances were of there being another Nerwen, but conveniently there was a parenthetical beneath her name that stated, "The Downer from Down Under". And then it all made sense. I remembered on the thread she had mentioned spotty internet going over the mountains- she was obviously talking about the mountains in Colorado on her way toward Nebraska. (Apparently in my dream world there is a road leading straight from Australia to the Western US, ha ha.)

I spent a bit of time wondering if I should excuse myself from the panel on account of knowing Nerwen, because even without reading it I planned to give it the highest mark. I looked around the room trying to find Nerwen (the submissions were made in person and they awaited the results), but I couldn't see her anywhere. Then I realized I didn't know what she looked like because I wasn't linked to her on Facebook. But even as that thought occurred to me another thought overrode it, "It's Nerwen, from the Downs. Of course you'll recognize her when you see her. Downers can always pick one another out of a crowd. We can sense each other."

And then I woke up, nodding my head to that truth.

Legate of Amon Lanc 06-11-2015 01:33 PM

Well let's see about that.

++Rikae

And amazing dream, Phantom. I haven't had 'Downers-related dreams in a while, maybe I should become a Seer in order to get them.

You must have missed my latest in Crazy Captions http://forum.barrowdowns.com/showpos...ostcount=14112

Lalaith 06-11-2015 01:49 PM

I also had a Downer dream last night - I dreamed that Shasta was moving to Europe and that Mac and Rikae (who were living in Germany) were going to put him up while he found his feet. Everyone on the Downs was very excited about it.
