WWJ III - Nan Qualinmerë: Death Wish Valley

[Valier]

I may have seemed to have a past life as well Garin, that my instincts told me to vote for the defensive one, and they were in fact a wolf. I might employ the same tactics now, as then and catch us a wolf. Then again an innocent will still feel the need to defend themselves as feverishly as a wolf would.

So saying that my vote is leaning towards Shelob, But I'm not concrete on it yet.....Time will tell I guess.

[Shelob]

you are doing our village a disservice by offering yourself to the noose.

No kidding, though perhaps you'll grant me to today hasn't been the greatest of days? And I have math work, if you're looking for bad combinations of factors "not being trusted" + "Statistics project" + "Calculus Project" + "can't tell when people are joking unless I can hear/see them" is high on the list.

I'm leaving my vote where it is for now though, as I see I'm doing a disservice by dying now, but if I survive longer and still aren't trusted I'll do a greater disservice later. If something comes up that warrents me changing it I shall.

[Garin]

This 'statistics' you speak of, I believe that it has once led me to the edge of a cliff.
Strange tongues speaking of Chi and Anova, maybe death is better.

[Kath]

Well arguing like this isn't going to get us far! Shelob, if you are an innocent I would suggest you change your vote.

Voting so far:
Shelob - Shelob
Wayne - Gandalf
Kath - Wayne
Anguirel - Roa
Mith - Fea
Garin - Shelob
Gandalf - Wayne

So the two looking at being lynched today are Shelob (unless she changes her vote) and Wayne. Do we really want another double lynching? If both are innocents our numbers are going to decrease pretty rapidly.

[Garin]

Kath: Do we really want another double lynching?

I don't like the village's odds when it comes to double lynching, although it worked, to an extent, yesterday. Kath, you have attracted votes. You have also, voted for Wayne. I didn't get a good idea as to why. Please elaborate. I want a wolf today and the time grows near. I am still leaning towards Shelob, due to the air of desperation. I just do not want another innocent gone, two especially.

[Shelob]

If I change my vote you'll be stuck with me, you know that right?

There's no way the wolves are going to kill me now so I'll be here each DAY I'm not lynched.

And if I'm not lyncehd and I'm innocent you'll never be quite sure of that, but if I'm not lynched and I'm a wolf you've just handed me an excuse to continue amongst the living.

For my part I still say I'm innocent, and that I lie not, but you have no way but my death to tell. If I change my vote you'll either have to get both the real wolves despite my distracting presence or kill me later, and the longer I remain a distraction the easier it is for the wolves to hide.

That's worse for the village than just losing me now, though unless we're sure of Wayne's guilt (which I doubt we are) I'd suggest someone breaks the tie.

[Kath]

At the time it was a safety measure to ensure I would have voted, and I dind't change it when I last posted because I hoped that Shelob would change her mind. However, it doesn't appear that she will and I am really not keen on the idea of a double lynch so:

--WAYNE, ++SHELOB

Hopefully it will be the lesser of two evils. The death of only one innocent at the worst, and the death of a wolf at best.

[Garin]

RETRACTABLE VOTES, PEOPLE!!
Give me a reason to pull away from Shelob and train my bow towards another's furry haunches and I shall.
But, right now, it is worth finding out.
Anyone hear from Abercrombie...nothing implied...by the way?

[Valesse]

So sudden the scene seems stormy! (Are seconds days always so vicious?)

It might not be so strange that even after all of this that my first... okay well this is going to sound sick... "draft" to "decorate the family tree" hasn't changed. Though I might just be alone in voting for them (Yep! I'm still withholding for the sake of my possible safety.), I'm suprised no one else is... lest they have changed their vote from doing so.

Something seems fishy to me, and since I spend most of my time much further away from the water than any of the rest of you, thats saying something! Not that I don't find... oh...

There's no way the wolves are going to kill me now.

just a wee bit outstanding, and worth review. I can pretty much promise my vote won't be Shelob today.

Today I think she is innocent.

So at a glance:

Anguirel - Roa
Gandalf - Wayne
Garin - Shelob
Kath - Shelob
Mith - Fea
Shelob - Shelob
Wayne - Gandalf

As I see those who have received votes:

Our big "winner" Shelob has given up trying to tell us how innocent she is- even after her command (which was not very well received) not to do the very thing we have all done. Someone is rather "eager to deal death in judgement" as they always say... Would a wolf kill themself of make the option so open?

Fea is herself: laughy-daffy and lets not forget cunning. Someone very wise said once that

This is not a wine for drinking. This is a wine for laying down and avoiding

If Fea were a wine... she'd be that wine.

I haven't the faintest idea why anyone would vote Roa but she doesn't say much, so why not?

Wayne and Gandalf have it out for one another.

Have I missed anything?
