Tol-in-Gaurhoth IV (The Saga, erm, Still Continues...) - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

My thoughts run along similar lines to yours, Celuien. We should come to a decision quite soon, and for me the main suspects are Hookbill, Nilpaurion, and the spawn of ungoliant who dances...

While hanging Nilpaurion will be a relief to all our brains, innocent or guilty though he may be, I think Hookbill may be a quicker way to a similar end. Though I base my supposition only on Eomer's hunch, Hookbill's rather rash knife-twisting at Eomer, and Nilp's gleeful quintuple-bluff-laden accusation list, I cannot rest easy while the Goomba breathes...

My feelings regarding Madame Spawn are directed by her coolness and savoir-faire, her casual contributions, her easy assumption of supremacy-some of which also apply, I can see, to myself. I need more solid evidence before I accuse her.

And so, finally, I suggest that we hang Hookbill for longterm benefit, or Nilpaurion, frankly, to put our weary crania at ease.

We have a vote Nilpaurion Felagund and if current wave of sentiments prevail he will be executed.

I add ++Lalaith to the kill list now. Her vote and its timing for Oddwen mistify me and her staunch questioning of Feanor after Nilpaurion made his post reinforces my suspicion. I should think they are in cahoots.

Anguirel · 06-26-2005, 09:59 AM

Alas. I want to vote for Hookbill, but to save Lalaith I am forced to second the fickle Fea and vote for ++Nilpaurion I'm-A-Werewolf-And-Proud-Of-It Felagund.

Firefoot · 06-26-2005, 10:13 AM

I'm not really sure what to think right now. I don't really think that Nilp is guilty, but I've certainly been wrong before now. Eomer certainly didn't seem to think that he was guilty, either, but I don't know that anyone (except Nilp himself) actually understood that message.

I only have middling suspicion for Lalaith; I'm not sure it's enough to lynch her on, though I think I'm inclined to lynch her over Nilp.

I am becoming increasingly more suspicious of Hookbill, but more people seem to want to vote for Nilp.

I am feeling easier about Saurreg and Fea for the moment.

I would like to hear from Esgal.

So I'll hold my vote for a little while yet.

Lalaith · 06-26-2005, 10:24 AM

If Esgal doesn't show, will she die instead of, or as well as, the lynching victim?

Saurreg, I'm sorry you are so convinced of my guilt, I believe you to be innocent. And remember, a Shirriff was wrong before.

Anguirel · 06-26-2005, 10:30 AM

Firefoot, Lalaith, if you both vote for Hookbill we might yet hang the miscreant...just a suggestion.

Esgal will be an additional corpse, I think.

Hookbill the Goomba · 06-26-2005, 10:39 AM

Ah, I knew I wouldn't last long in this game. *Shrugs* I thought of playing dumb so that the w-ws wouldn't see me as a threat, but it seems to have backfired on me... damn.
It seems the only way my vote can go in order to save my neck (literally) is to vote

++Nilpaurion Felagund

Sorry man.

(My dad's being mercyful: "You have five minutes.")
Aah, panic! Whom shall I vote for? It seems that Nilp is a quite popular option and I have to tell that I've found his behaviour rather odd. I don't know. If Esgal doesn't show up, it's time for her to go anyway... *eyes closed and fingers crossed* ++ Esgallhugwen!

Firefoot · 06-26-2005, 10:41 AM

Okay, I quickly went back and read all of Hookbill's posts. What I had previously taken for innocent, I now realize was not so concrete at all, even less so than Anguirel. It is the type of post that I would probably expect from a wolf...

I guess I think that ++Hookbill is more likely to be a wolf than either Nilp or Lalaith. So help me if I'm wrong again.
