Can't agree with this, Mith. I don't think that one's ability to entertain should preclude their being voted if suspicious.

...Though I seem to be in the minority on this issue.

Edit: X'd with Nogrod's second and Mith.

And I'm no gifted either you should not dare to mention aloud if you're an innocent.

It's not really a trap. Well, it kind of is, but not one of my invention. It's something that someone else did that I think might possibly be a brilliant ploy and I'm trying not to say anything to make it misfire, because I honestly believe it might work. But we won't know till tomorrow if it worked completely.

And no, I will not clarify. I will either tomorrow or after the game. And of course if I'm reading this whole thing wrong then I'll feel entirely stupid.

Okay, so you do indeed think we should leave Form for the Assassin? Well, then the question is who do we lynch today that gives us a good chance of catching a baddie?

And I take it you understand my point about Lalaith now?

the phantom 08-22-2008 01:31 PM

Well, since there's not much interest in lynching Form, I might be content to follow Fea and go for Shasta.

I just wish Fea was around.

You misunderstand .. I am not anti voting for them _ I just save them for later when I have had the full measure of enjoyment. Anguirel would tell you of a certain game where, though it broke my heart ... I lynched him to win the game.... :). However I dont' find him suspicious enoug to vote for by a long chalk. I'd much rather lynch one of the people who have called me stupid....

Oh, go and plant some sunflowers or something.

Eönwë 08-22-2008 01:39 PM

Well, the thing is, since I stated my thoughts on Lal's post, the more I look at Gwath's posting the more I see wolf. And he's done nothing to alleviate my suspicion, so:

++Gwathagor

edit: x-ed since Shasta

Like Form?

Yep could go for Mr Grouchy but it won't help TP ... and the idea of slogging into town on a bank holiday monday if there is no Phantom to flirt with is just too depressing :(

Considering phantom has already expressed interest in voting Form, I'm sure you and he can come to some sort of... agreement.

Mithalwen 08-22-2008 01:45 PM

0r even Sunday

Brinniel 08-22-2008 01:45 PM

Before everyone goes in and votes Shasta, can I just say the way he's been popping out of nowhere to vote reminds me of an innocent Elf-Warrior. And these one-liners he's been making don't sound wolfish to me...cobblerish maybe, but I don't think he's a wolf.

Mithalwen 08-22-2008 01:45 PM

Ah but that would only levely up .. may have to be someone who has a vote already :D

the phantom 08-22-2008 01:46 PM

Boy, people seem to be down on Gwath this game. Are they bitter about his Middle-Earth Soccer Tournament victory? :D

I don't think he's a WW though. Possible Cobbler.

Too bad it's not Form with two votes instead of Gwath. Not that I wouldn't vote for Gwath to save my skin.

Mithalwen 08-22-2008 01:46 PM

Well Iknow it would be unwise to "misunderestimate" Shasta. After last time...

As you've made clear countless times. :) Almost as if in prior defense...

Who, me? :Merisu:

Brinniel 08-22-2008 01:48 PM

Urgh, I also have to mention I meant to return much much earlier...silly me...:rolleyes:

I'm still a bit clueless on who to vote for, so let me think...

the phantom 08-22-2008 01:49 PM

Where is everyone, by the way? There are still many votes left to be cast.

Nerwen 08-22-2008 01:49 PM

Hello. Just been reading the thread.

We'd better make up our minds quickly.

Oh we did that years ago, still works for me :p

Thinlómien 08-22-2008 01:50 PM

I haven't got the time to comment on everything I'd like to (I'll do that toMorrow if I'm still alive) and me, Greenie and Nog we're all sharing a computer and none of us has voted, so...

I could vote Shasta, Form or Nog, or even maybe Fea. (She's been acting weirdly.) I've started having second thoughts about Durelin. She might not be a cobbler after all. And of course I could vote Nerwen just for that dreadful suggestion... :mad: ;)

I can't follow Nilp's logic.

The Nogrod-phantom row looks interesting... makes me think they're not both innocent. And even though I suspect Nog a bit more than tp, this row actually makes me a little hesitant of lynching him. I'd rather see how this develops.

But while I think lynching her was stupid, what I meant by you not being silly is that you're not throwing total joke ideas or loads of silly suggestions and suspicions around.

I'll be quickly back to vote but that's all you can expect of me toDay... gotta let Greenie and Noggie write...


edit: mass-xed

Mithalwen 08-22-2008 01:51 PM

Shasta and Phantom promises to have play value. Lets keep them! Please?

the phantom 08-22-2008 01:51 PM

Okay- here's an idea. Does anyone think it was odd that Gwath didn't get lynched yesterday? I said this at the end of voting before I cast my vote...
Quote:

I was expecting something weird at the end, but it didn't happen.

Oh well. It's over now.
The weird thing I was expecting to happen was for a couple of people to run in and vote to lynch Gwath (Cobblers or WWs trying to get two kills in one day).

The fact that it didn't happen- does that mean that the WWs thought he was perhaps a Cobbler and the Cobblers thought he was a WW?

Just mulling this over.

Aww. There I was siding with you against phantom, too. Where's the love? :(

Discuss. :Merisu:

Proof that phantom is banking on his entertainment value in order not to be lynched! :eek:

Edit: When accusing, one must always put the quote in the actual post. Duh.

Mithalwen 08-22-2008 01:54 PM

OK time is running out people

the phantom 08-22-2008 01:55 PM

It's a little late to discuss that Shasta!

A Little Green 08-22-2008 01:56 PM

Ah thanks Lommy you really were quick. :rolleyes:

I don't have much time (I'll promise to be very much more active toMorrow), but I think I'll go for

++ Gwath

because he still seems to tiptoe around a trifle too much and behaves fishy and under-the-reindeer at the same, and since I don't want to make a throwaway-vote, I might as well go for him.


EDIT: x-ed with a lot

the phantom 08-22-2008 01:56 PM

Here's the deal.

Gwath might be an Ordo. He might be a baddie.

I don't think he's a gifted.

He's tied with me for the lead.

That's definitely where I'm leaning.

Mithalwen 08-22-2008 01:56 PM

Unless I get a good reason not too I think I will go for Lommy - not usual coherent self.

What are you talking about? It's never too late! :p

the phantom 08-22-2008 01:57 PM

I promise that if we're both around tomorrow I'll chat with you about those Cobbler comments, Shasta.

*cues Phantom-killing-Shasta in the night* :(
I'm really not sure why I'm so hyper all of a sudden.

the phantom 08-22-2008 01:58 PM

Okay, I'm seriously running out of time here.

+ + Gwath

Sorry lad. It was either you or me. :(
