Wow. That was entertaining. I'll have to do it again some time.

Nice re-edit, young lady.

However, I did actually wonder about Firefoot's mistake. Was Esga meant to vote for me?
You see what this village is turning us into. Twitching, snapping paranoiacs.

You know, I wondered about that myself. Remember when I pointed at Firefoot before I had to leave the other day? Even if they're bad reasons, I usually do have reasons for what I say. And now I'm paranoid. But that's half the fun. The other half is the irony that goes along with whatever I say.

"I hope you two die." They die.
"Let's kill Nilp." He dies.
"Spawn is on my mind." She dies.

I do wonder if they'll kill you though, Lalaith, just because I'm directing my thoughts toward you at the moment. No worries... I'll probably give up and return to my well-knawed LMP bone.

Firefoot has been trapped in the Barrow!
I've had just enough time to stop in here and catch up. I've no time to comment, but I did edit that first post. Sorry it was wrong; it felt wrong when I tallied it up but I couldn't figure out why...

Believe what you will, it was an honest mistake. Albeit a rather strange one. But this is what happens when you try to count up several votes before recording them...

Anyhow, I am somewhat surprised at how fast the votes for Hookbill are coming in. I'll probably be casting my vote the same way, though I'll hold off for now. If the voting ends before I come back (I hope not, but he only needs two more votes and it's going fast), consider that to be how I would have voted...

Aye. True.

Fea, you may have a point. What point exactly, I am not sure though. Are you saying LMP is one of the wolves using your suspect list to prove the innocence of all there are on it, thus making himself as well look innocent? But yesterday, he had no way of influencing the vote against Nilp and he himself voted for someone else, (Anguirel) though I admit that the timing of his vote made it meaningless. He could have cast that vote to distance himself from him, I don't know. Today he hastily casts a vote for Hookbill.

But there's also another side of this argument. That your suspect list, Fea, has truly not a single wolf among them and being a little scared that it would make you look suspicious, you now turn to LMP, in hope that he is the one exception. Or it may be that you're a sneaky wolf whom nobody is suspecting because there are more suspicious characters around. Truth be told I don't quite suspect you at the moment for the same reason.

By the way, I don't think it was Fea that started the 'lynch Nilpaurion' bandwagon yesterday. Like she said, she has voted in the previous days without anyone following her lead. I think it was Anguirel. And his remark is quite weird:

Quote:
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.
Earlier, he says:

Quote:
And so, finally, I suggest that we hang Hookbill for longterm benefit, or Nilpaurion, frankly, to put our weary crania at ease.
So you'd rather vote for someone to set your curiosity at rest than for someone who you believe wholeheartedly to be guilty.

I think Hookbill is very much suspicious. But I am also suspicious of his main accuser, Anguirel. In fact, Esga being a wolf seems to suggest that Lalaith and Anguirel are also wolves. This must be so obvious for everyone that it makes it unrealistic...unless: Anguirel, who is a werewolf, chose to protect Lalaith, knowing she is an innocent who has fallen into disgrace; so that when she is lynched and proven innocent he would also gain credence as an innocent.

Wait... what's this point I might have again? My point was that I'm being set up (all my suspects dying) but there's a discrepancy (LMP is still alive). Also, when I pointed out this fact, absolutely nobody paid attention to it. All the rest of my band-wagons worked out for me, but this one hasn't. (think of band-wagoning as a positive thing, minus the dead innocents).

I'm really excited that nobody is saying what I would be saying, if I were trying to kill myself. "Look, everybody on Fea's list is dying. That's just too weird to be a coincedence."
