Well, it's funny, because when I became aware of what I was I thought...huh probably the best thing I could do to help would be to look like a wolf trying to signal another one, and therefor at least waste one (possible more) of their efforts in finding packmates. I also thought if
Nog wasn't a wolf he would try the same, therefor it was a mental check to myself "don't jump on anyone looking wolvish early on, especially
Nog. Wait and see what happens."
With my sickly interweb fairies Day 1, I couldn't do that trickery, and I'm not even going to bother with it now. But anyway, I understood what
Nog was saying there about everyone acting wolvish, I just think what is the point in saying it right at the start? I mean we all have our own roles and responsibilities, all are going to be different, so play them the way you want, right?
Now
Nerwen, I saw it as an obviously sarcastic howl response to
Nog saying we should all act wolvish and like we're giving signals to confuse the wolves. I mean it was obvious, and might look like it goes against my "don't immediately jump on anyone," but it was going on after a very limitted hunch, gut-feeling it was a sarcastic howl from
Nerwen and trying to prove a point to discredit Nog's "we should all act wolvish" as silly. Considering my pixies are feeling better, and I'm not limitted to a 40-minute lunch break today, it's really not something I'm going to harp on.
I honestly think with how long the sign-ups took and to start now, most people simply forgot and didn't remember. Nothing serious, and certainly nothing malicious about the poorly slow and no-shows from Day 1. It's somewhat good too when you've had a moderately busy and stressful week to see "oh I don't have 3 pages to read through? Awesome."
