Garin has just left Hobbiton.
I regret the remark about not being sure about my Sleepy vote. It is a very feline play.

Of course, I am not sure about anyone right now. I have suspicions.

OOC - Just got back from school so don't expect much from me for the rest of the Day.

Wow!! Form is going on a random streak toDay!! Is it just me or is he really off his rockers this game??

Quote:
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.(Farael)
Because, as Roa stated earlier toDay, it distracts us from what we are trying to do here. It really makes it seem as if you want to draw attention to that and away from finding the Cats. I'm highly suspicious of you now.

Quote:
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.(Roa)
It is true that it can be looked at as normal Day 1 behaviour. But maybe that's what they want us to think. Maybe the two are actually really in cahoots and are pulling the old Wolf vs. Wolf strategy that was used in previous villages. That's what makes me most nervous about them and makes Farael even more suspicious.

Quote:
By the way, how come no-one has made anything about my exchange with Glirdan?(Farael)
What exchange would you be talking about? I see no where in any of your previous posts where you're directing anything to me personally. It also seems to me that you've been trying to draw attention on to yourself. Why may I ask??

Nogrod - your post #43 brings up rather intriguing ideas. It could mean one of two things but I'm sure I don't need to spell it out for you as I would not want to draw attention to it.

Sleepy - your posts #45 and 46 also bring up some more thoughts which brings me back to what I said above. Mind you there are many flaws in those theories so I will not be going off of that.

My main suspcions are for Farael and Form.

Farael, well, I've given reasoning earlier on. Form, well...he's just acting....odd....

I'll be back shortly with my vote.

OK, I'm here. I have a few comments to make about some people.

Garin: I personnaly have a weird feeling about him, mainly because of this line he wrote in post 64:

Quote:
Diamond said I was a possible cat. This I don't like because I know I am not .
The fact that he's suspicious of someone cause there suspicious of him is kinda odd.

Fareal: His little joke he makes me uneasy:

Quote:
I love you all, this village is so talkative!! but I have to go now and I shan't be back before the dead-line (get it? dead-line.... where we draw a line to decide who dies.... anyone? come on, it's not that bad)
Yeah, joking about death is something I'm sure a were-cat would do. Death isn't something a normal person would joke about.

I didn't really get to read through everything. These two things just striked me as odd. I know those arn't very good reasons but I wanted to have something to post, so I thought I'd mention those two things.

So don't know about everyone else. Seems like Sleepy must have done something to gain all those votes, I must have missed it through my skimming. But I still might vote for him.

I'll wait a bit longer before voting.

crossposted with Glirdy, He just mentions noticing something in two players' posts then doesn't go into it. Almost a pointless post. Yeah, just thought I'd comment on the oddness of that.

Thanks! Luckily I had just finished typing this out.

Ok, I've read through all of Sleepy's posts, and I think I understand why he has suspicion.

He seemed serious enough at first. Then he got into trusting random people for no reason, and getting on peoples good side. Then he got a little silly a few times, a little defensive. Kinda all over the place. Not really a lot to go on but it seems to be the person I can find the most reasons for suspecting.

I know that being one of (or the) last person to vote for him will get me in trouble tomorrow. If he's guilty you'll say I was tryiing to save my own hide, if he's innocent you'll say I was trying to save Fareal.

But anyway.

Without further delay:

++Sleepy Ranger

I'm sorry for sealing your fate if you are innocent.

The sun began to go down on the first day of the attacks. The villagers seemed to be confused and their votes spread out.

"I say we kill the Mayor of this village, He has been acting strangely!" Shouted Garin.

"I say we kill Me!...No wait Eonwe...No Farael....No Thinlomien...hhhmmmm Hey I say we kill Glirdan! I never noticed him before. Argued Formendabras.

"This is all nonsense!" Stated Mormegil. " I say we kill Thinlomien, I think there's something fishy about her."

The arguing and speculations finally came to an end.
The villagers choose their noble Mayor to be the object of their violence.

"I say we throw him in the river! I hear they hate water!" Said Nogrod.
"But remember we Hobbits hate water just as much!" Shouted Telperaca.

And so the villagers bound Sleepy Ranger's hands behind his back and led him to the rivers edge.

"Any last words? Asked Kitanna.

" I swear it's not me! I just don't want to be thrown in the river! I can not swim, I tell you! I say Farael is the one you are after, not me!" Sleepy let out as he hopped on one foot.

"So long fair mayor, may you be a Werecat!" said Wilwarin538.

And with that they threw him into the deeps of the river.At first he sunk to the bottom, then came bobbing to the surface sputtering and growling? His skin began to change and he began to grow in size."How dare you all! said the giant, drenched feline with the torn ear. "We will have your town...even if you kill me!" With those last words, the once fair seeming mayor screamed his rage as he gulped down mouthfulls of water, until his lungs were full and he screamed no more.

The dawn of the Second day draws upon the village.The occupants wake from their beds and hurry to the town center to meet and discuss what to do.But when they arrive they see someone sprawled on the ground, in an unnatural position.There lay Nogrod the Ale maker.A look of horror was upon his face, but something was missing...His tongue had been torn from his mouth and was nowhere to be found. A note was laided on his chest reading...

You will all pay for what you have done!
We Two are still better than thee!
What have you to say now?
Nothing! Because us Cats got your tongue!
Get out! Get out!
We will have this Puuurrrfect village!
It shall be our own!

Signed: The Two

See Wilwarin you did not seal his fate and you weren't saving Farael. I found the wording really odd and it seems kittyish I think you came back and saw your comrade was dead and that you could do nothing to save him and voted him to show how innocent you are. Strategies like this don't escape me and I will stop them. I could be off here but the way in which you worder the bolded statement seems odd and that you are trying to hedge yourself against any suspicion.

I will say it again...I don't think we should use any hint real or perceived as any evidence! It goes against the game and should not be included or used to sway opinion.
