WWJ Attack of the Werecats:The ppuuuurrfect village

[Garin]

Thanks for that Roa....

[Farael]

What easier way for a werecat to hide than to cast a random vote? Eonwe already knows what that could lead to (if not, I have a Mathom to give you... it's an old history book, it tells a story about the nineteenth village to be infected by werewolves). No intelligent player would use a tactic that got him/her lynched before he/she could even get into the flow of the game unless.... he wants to avoid suspicion by being so obviously suspicious it just can't be true

Trust me, I know about that... in the Mathom there is a passage about this man with, surprise!, the same name I have.... who happened to adopt a tactic so very suspicious he flew under the radar for the most part. Sadly, and even though he was right, he got lynched in the final day.

Anyhow, I think that Eonwe is playing fool because he knows it'll keep him safe, so I say

++Eonwe

And off with him. Furthermore, if we are to loose an innocent villager today, might as well be this random voter.

I disagree, Farael. One could argue that voting so rediculously early is suspicious. The tactic of random votes on the first day is a rather common one in my understanding. And the other times I have read about people named Eonwe show the same behavior regardless of role.

When we have nothing to go on, a good spread of votes can help narrow the field. I wouldn't be so hasty to pass judgement. The day has just begun, and many of our fellow villagers have yet to join the fray. Why such an early vote when you know that it too is incredibly suspicious? Following the very tactics you just exposed?

Edit: Cross-posted with Glirdan.

The comments today are far from useless. We can easily establish patterns if people get active enough.

[Farael]

Retractable votes, dear Roa... but I think I'll stick with mine. If that's Eonwe's way of playing, well this is mine. And by the way, why hasn't anyone picked up on the comments I made about Kath????? I think my comments towards Diamond (however playful they were) pale in comparison with the others.

Really, what's wrong with you all?

P.S: I'm not voting Eonwe for a random vote... but you have to admit that no matter how "random" none of us really chooses a number and then votes the Xth person.... we at least TRY to be random between the most suspiciously looking folks.

I come up to town and what do I find, but two of our friends dead! The deaths of poor Naria and Valier are truly saddening occurences, even worse when the acts have been commited by three werecats, in our midst even as we speak. So Day 1 begins.

I hate Day 1. Barely anything to go on. We're stumbling through the Lockholes with only a match to light our way. Plus I'll have to vote very soon (thanks to these new-fangled time-zones the King down in Gondor has set up everywhere). So, so far, so early in the game, I have no clear idea who I'm suspicious of. Maybe of those blabbermouths who would scare all the fish out of the ocean with their tall talk of strategies and what-not. I prefer simple gut voting on Day 1. Who here seems to be attackin' and defendin' so early in the game? Whoever it is, that's your gut feelin'.

Farael seems a bit eager to vote and spread suspicion. His vote for Eonwe looks like it's on shaky ground to me. My gut feeling is that I might vote for 'im. Plus I don't like the way he's askin' what's wrong with everybody. Everybody here is a perfectly ord'nary hobbit (except for those three who are werecats, of course). Now I'm goin' back to the stream to do some fishing and to mull over what all of youse have said. I'll be back in an hour or so.

And by the way, why hasn't anyone picked up on the comments I made about Kath????? I think my comments towards Diamond (however playful they were) pale in comparison with the others.

Because your statements about Kath are nonsense. There's nothing to say about them beyond that. That sort of thing is best ignored lest it detract from what's really going on. Are you intentionally trying to distract us?

[Roa_Aoife]

Double post, sorry.

Your comments towards Diamond18 are about the same, really. The only actual case you've given is that of Eonwe, and that hardly constitues a case. However, I am wondering myself what the deal is with looking at you and Diamond for "rivalry." It looks like standard Day 1 banter. What's the big deal with that? Mormegil, Glirdan, explain please.

Edit: Back in... 9-10 hours. Ish.

[Alcarillo]

Well, here I am, an hour later just as I promised. My mind has not changed, and I still think I'll vote for Farael. Oh, what the heck.

++Farael

Farael, if you turn out not to be a werecat, I'm sorry, but you're the most suspicious one out there right now.

*OOC - Is it just me or does Garin get a vote on Day 1 in every game??

I must agree with the comments made earlier that Day 1's are completely and utterly useless. However, I must also agree that if we do not discuss or come up with strategies, we will not be able to pin down these felines. I also don't agree with Eonwe's strategy on voting for some random person because of some random number. I do, however, believe that most of toDay's votes will be random unless something suspicious does appear. That is why I will withold my vote until shortly before the Day ends (*OCC - I have school so I will only be able to quicly scan the posts). It also seems that we have a rivlary already between Farael and Diamond. I think we should keep an eye on these two (as morm said earlier) as either one of them or both of them could be a Wolves. Now let me go attend to my bar.
