I think you are right, Dancing Spawn but I don't know if suggesting lynching specific villagers now is very wise. They could be gifted villagers. But then they might be a wolf.

Oops! I said originally posted by Kath in post 25. It was actually Kitanna. I added a disclaimer at the bottom of that post. I hope that was the right thing to do Miss Moderater. And no, I'm not a wolf or a cobbler.

As is well known I do enjoy killing but I found a legal way to do it. Hopefully we get the guilties but I must admit I'll have fun in the process. I say we lynch TGWBS The reason is rather simple and completely fool proof. I had my wife pick a number between 1 and 18 (skipping 11, me) and she choose 16. TGWBS is number 16 therefore I vote we kill him and let his body answer our questions for us.

I know what you're going to say but at least this is a shot in the dark without wolvish influence.

I am familiar with such a strategy Morm but you cannot possibly expect us to assume that choice to be without wolvish influence, because we don't know your secrets. Sorry, but the task is tricky like that.

Anyway, I'm off to dance (seriously) and then sleep. I'll be back in the discussion when I wake up. And please remember, don't point fingers without thinking very carefully.

Speak to you all later.

Without a wolvish influence? You know, after that statement I'm pretty certain that mormegil's wife is the cobbler!

Btw, Fea, you left two options out. You might be a regular villager or the cursed one. At this point they are the one and same role, though.



Zzzz...

There's an absolutely fantastic reason for this: I had Keeper standing behind me saying "Get the [expletive deleted] off of my computer." He's none too patient when I swipe control of his stuff. I'm amazed he hasn't come to collect his Prismacolors yet.

I am, of course, a regular villager... as far as I'm aware. But since you're not going to believe me anyhow... I'm a wolf and I think we should kill mormegil because he is also a wolf.

LMP: I'll give you the age that I'll be in less than a month: 18. Let us hope your astrological ways can help us.

Lhuna and Nilp can be forgiven for not posting yet; they are in a way different time zone. When the game started, they were presumably fast asleep.

TGWBS should be killed post haste because he thinks (with a grin) that Eomer or I should be killed on DAY 1. Where is the fun of life without Eomer of the Rohirrim in it? As for killing me... I like life so much.

The Stuffy Old Astrologer Speaks Up

OOC: All birth dates are our Dates of Becoming Barrowdowns Members.

Permit me to speak, oh gentle souls all. I shall do what I can to help with this latest calamity. No, I shall call it a disaster, for I am convinced that it arises from some asterior, that is, heavenly phenomena.

Preliminary indications are based upon that which we know by today's date. 'Tis the first day of the Sun's residing in the House of the Lion. Not a one of the souls that make up this village of Love were born under the Sign of the Lion, so it may be, on a preliminary reading, that there is no one of great courage to lead us in our quest to rid ourselves of the moonish wolves.

There is one other preliminary indication, and that is that one of our number was born under the Sign of the Fish. The significance of this is that as we speak, the Moon, which is waning Gibbous by the way, is in the House of the Fish. So I would say, purely in a preliminary way, that the one villager who is a Fish-born, may be one of our primary suspects. That is Lhuna. Notice the appropriateness of her name.

Nevertheless, there are three werewolves, not one, so I shall now go study the star and planet charts and determine what the heavens may reveal to us about the identity of the miscreants among us. I shall not be able to say more, most likely, until perhaps thirteen hours from now. I bid you good day.

Edit: Oh! One last thing. I would greatly appreciate it if all of you would be so kind as to indicate your current age (in the village). Thank you.

Well, I guess it can't hurt none to say I'm as old as the hills... *consults the hills as to her age* 69, sir, to be exact.
