WWJ III - Nan Qualinmerë: Death Wish Valley

[Garin]

Kath you haven't defended yourself against votes against you. You seem more defensive by the day. You haven't said much and all I ask of you is to say more. I hope you are innocent but want to hear more.

[Garin]

Ang: = (Garin, if you're speaking from IRL, me too, but it's really considered rather bad form to refer to that sort of thing to further your interests in a game...)

Agreed.

[Anguirel]

Let him who is without sin cast the first stone, as the actress said to the villager.

Holy Cow!! two gifted in one night! that really sucks I thought I would just check in.....I'll read over the posts and try to make some sense out of them...

[Valier]

HHHmmmm I just noticed that Gandalf has only made three posts so far....And Wayne only four.
I'm not saying that's overly suspisious but......with all that's been happening I would like to hear a bit more from both of them,so I can get a grasp on where they stand.

[AbercrombieOfRohan]

Ok, Garin's got my vote tonight and seems to me, to be almost certainly a wolf.

Now, let's not waste anymore time arguing about him. We still have another wolf to catch and we shouldn't squander our time.

I'm not saying that's overly suspisious but......with all that's been happening I would like to hear a bit more from both of them,so I can get a grasp on where they stand.

Wouldn't we all... But Wayne has yet to say a lot in any game he's played in, so don't hold your breath. I've never played with Gandalf before so I've no idea what he's up to.

And now for something completely different... (speaking of which, my dear Tar, I never got a chance to mention how awesome it was that you used that quote in the game...I guess now you'll never know.)

Humphh...I've been re-reading Garin's old posts to see who else he mentions that could give some clue as to who his fellow wolf is. And there is one player that is continually cropping up, in fact, he also voted for her today, and that is Kath. (I know, I know, he mentioned me a few times as well, but since I know I'm innocent I can't really do anything about that, can I?) Now, I had Kath down as an innocent up until my re-reads. So, I'm off to re-read her posts. I thought I'd just put this out there for the rest of you to look at and see if you can see anything else suspicious about Kath's behaviour.

[Kath]

Abercrombie, I can see why your reading of Garin's posts would suggest that, but he's only had it in for me since yesterday before the lynching. Before that he focused almost solely on Anguirel, who he suddenly seems to have backed away from. I hope your reread shows that.

Garin. I say a lot when I'm here. Remember tortoise herding is a slow job No seriously, I only have certain times when I have enough time available to me to come here and really join in. I could leave odd useless posts throughout the day but I prefer to make my contribution meaningful, which means I like to leave it until I have time to reply to any queries and really look at what's been going on.

Now, Abercrombie I agree, we do need to look for another wolf. If you decide it isn't me may I suggest we do look at Gandalf and Wayne because they really have barely been here and it may be that that's a perfect cover for a wolf because, with Wayne especially, we attribute it to merely being normal. Usually I would now say I'd go back and look at their posts, but there is barely anything to look at!

Silent ones should be punished due to disinterest in the village. I will vote for Wayne, Gandalf, of Abercrombie before the day is over, Ang has said little except vote for me, but I do not see how a wolf can kill another as with Thin. Anguirel is either a masterful wolf or an innocent, doubtfully a gifted.

[AbercrombieOfRohan]

Anguirel is either a masterful wolf or an innocent, doubtfully a gifted.

Very doubtful. All the gifteds are dead.

Abercrombie, I can see why your reading of Garin's posts would suggest that, but he's only had it in for me since yesterday before the lynching. Before that he focused almost solely on Anguirel, who he suddenly seems to have backed away from. I hope your reread shows that.

It does. However, I'm still posting this, not because I think it's particularly strong evidence, but because it's something to look at and keep in mind.

THE CASE AGAINST KATH

- Eonwe vote, she admits it is not really based in fact, but rather in spelling

- admits shock that Thin was a wolf, could be a double bluff

-

Now I doubt that wolves would vote for one of their own on the first day so (by my reasoning)

Which, she didn't vote for a wolf ont he first day, she voted for an innocent.

-

Garin - again very defensive. He has been consistent, voting for Anguirel on both days. This makes me think he might be innocent, as not many newbie wolves would stick so to their principles (at least in my opinion).

Weirdo reasoning anyone? This made me even more suspicious of him.

- Mentions me in passing. Just like Garin.

- vote for Wayne, after repeated suspicion of Shelob

- changes vote to Shelob

- is confused by Garin's continuing insistance of his suspicion of Shelob, points to her innocence, but perhaps since she knew that Shelob was innocent she was trying to not get caught by the whiplash (like today has produced against Garin)

- Garin says this about Kath,

You've just been acting strange

and has repeated it since. I'm not sure if it means anything at all.

- Is one of the first today to be forcibly suspicious of Garin (this points to her innocence again), but it could of course be a double bluff, knowing that Garin was undoubtedly going to be lynched today.

- points to Roa

-

Garin, how exactly have I been behaving oddly? There is no point in mounting a huge defence because all I can say is 'I am innocent'. I have no way to prove it (other than my death which I would prefer not to happen) and anything else just gains you suspicion because you look so defensive. I don't mind people suspecting me, it gives me some protection from the wolves. Unless I was in danger of being lynched it isn't a problem.

Maybe, maybe not...Innocent or no?

So, overall, I can't find any dead-set evidence against Kath, but nor can I label her "complete innocent." I'm usre that most of my evidence is just me grasping at straws, trying to come up with something. I just wanted to put it out there for the village to digest. I'm certainly not suggesting that we lynch her tomorrow, but just remember her... I sincerely hope that tonight's death shows us some evidence.

Oh, and I might as well vote now, because there's pretty much no way I'm not voting for Garin:

++GARIN

[AbercrombieOfRohan]

Oh, and all of the above can only be taken as truthful, when we know for certain that Garin is a wolf.
