Ouch. My honor has been attacked! I guess it's not so terrible. It will hold up under any scrutiny, so long as I'm not lynched before I can be proven innocent.

Okay. So long with the theatrics, I'm serious. Look, Lommy - I said not to try to take any twisted meaning out of my words. Didn't I say that? It was an awkward business making the first post. I couldn't tell what people would think. It was an ice breaking post and I had absolutely nothing to say.

Over-defensive? Well, yes, maybe so. I've been accused of that many, many times before. But see here, being an innocent, I have no guilty conscience, therefore I don't feel guilty about arguing my way out of a tight spot (or an imaginary tight spot) because I don't have to lie about it. Also, being an innocent, I'm scared to death that someone, as you have done, will point their finger at me, take their attention off the real wolves, and kill a friend. That's why I'm attomatically defensive.

But! The vote has been cast and I am too late.

(By the way, in this game, often when people quote someone else it's because they're accusing them. I wanted to make very sure that Boromir (and everyone else) knew I wasn't accusing him.)

Alright. Having spoken in my defense at length, I will get on.

Quote:
I couldn't have put it better than Di. This is an extremely Day-One-ish Day One so far. The only thing missing would be someone claiming to hate Day-Ones. Would one of the wolves please act foolish so that we can spot him/her? No? A pity...
Well, yes, how else is Day-One supposed to act like? Day-Two? And what's the shame in saying that one hates Day-Ones? I do hate them. They're such a waste of blasted time. Lots of random votes floating around, nothing stable to base one's thoughts on. . .not even a real death. An innocent is more likely to be killed this first day than any of the following!

There, now that I've said that I hate Day-Ones, can someone please tell me why it was a wolvish and foolish thing to do?

Thoughts based on next to nothing:

Diamond begins here career saying that Sleepy had it coming:

Quote:
Unfortunate for Sleepy to die such a grusome death, but it had to happen sooner or later., the man made enemies right and left. I'm just surprise that it was Werewolves and not one of the many talentless yet angry hacks he's eviscerated over the years. Death's funny that way.
As though it were not a surprised he was killed! Excusing the wolves - they did someone else’s job, eh? Tell me, were you one of those people who might have wanted to get him back? Well, well, perhaps it was just an attempt to be witty.

Macalaure went on to say nothing new. Agreeing with Diamond and asking one of the wolves to say how much they disliked Day-Ones. Well, I've done that, and I'm not a wolf, and I don't know why that would prove anyone a wolf. I just don't get it.

Lommy goes firing off and trying to make a strange and twisted meaning out of my first post after I said not to. Really, that's not very kind. I had hoped, from reading your first post, that you would let me speak in my defense before you voted, but I was too late. I might have given you a polite bow, in fact I was intending to, but. . .no.

Still question marks on Durelin. I can't help asking - Why?

And Glirdan's vote. . .but that wasn't as random as Durelin's.

No comment on Volo or Celuien.

Boromir and Menel seem like honest and smart chaps. There's a ring of honesty in their posts, at least so far. But they're both really good players, so I'm inclined to be careful with both of them.

THE Ka? No comments. . .except I don't like her new Avatar. She talked some and seemed to have something to say, which is better than having nothing to say. At least later in the game we'll have something to read when we're worried about her.

Nogrod. . .don't know. Nothing suspicious, how's that?

Same with Rune and Eonwe. No, I'll take that back. I found that wamy guitary thing-a-ding of Eonwe's very strange. Strange and attention bringing. Maybe means she's not a wolf? (Are you a she? Or a he? I don't know and am apprehensive about making a mistake.)

There, I believe that is all. I'm sorry if I missed anyone. It was purely unintentional. Don't get offended if I forgot you.

There are. . .gosh, two hours left. Such little time! Is anyone even going to be here to read what I just spent and hour typing up? So many people have already voted and left! Well, tomorrow will come around and then maybe we'll be able to use this. . .

(Cross posted with the last three people. Now to read those posts. . .I saw my name at the quick glance. . .hope nothing bad comes of it.)
