Shall I stay around for your hundreth post, Mr Taciturn?

What? I've been around on the Downs for years. I passed the 100 mile marker a long time ago.

Oh. You mean on this individual thread.

That's pretty darn scary if you ask me. But then I promised Fea that I was dedicated to making her happy when I agreed to join the village. That's been my number one goal.

And if only you knew the joking that went on via pm surrounding that goal. *snigger* You know I love you, Fea.

Oh well now I might have to vote for you in a fit of jealous rage.... use lynching as a vehicle for a crime passionnel.....

Oh, Mith, don't you remember Ang's quote- I spurned the Dark Lady. My "love" for her is the brother-sister variety. She wanted me to pull a Turin and I refused.

Ha ha! Reminds me of the time I told a GF of mine that she had moved up to the #53 spot on my "Things I Like" list, just above BBQ potato chips and below the movie "Speed".

Ah, but seriously, which way are you going with this, Mith?

Di or Kath?

As I said, I'm leaning Di currently.

If you're the WW all you have to do is get Di lynched today and leave Kath and I alive for tomorrow, for I will be voting for her.

You liked her more than BBQ chips and she wasn't happy? I think you were dating the wrong girl, love.

Being seen as less animated than Keanu Reeves isn't a great aphrodisiac.... almost up there with "almost beautiful in this light...." grrrrrrrrrrrr

Undoubtedly.

But then again, I didn't say it was a particular brand of BBQ chips, like Dino.

But it was "Speed" being in front of her that she found so offensive. She wasn't an action movie fan, and not a Keanu fan. Yeah... that should've been a clue that she wasn't right. Who in their right mind doesn't appreciate action movies and Keanu?

I will be leaving in about an hour, and will be gone till the last half hour of the day. Just so everyone knows.

I can't believe we've generated this many pages when you consider our village size isn't very large and the top thing that gets discussion time in most villages (Wolf team behavior) isn't even present.

**The Saucepan Man** · 11-21-2006, 05:07 PM

Back. But I'm tired and have a busy morning tomorrow. So I'll likely only be around for another hour or so.

Just saw this:

Can't be that because it's not dead on accurate. I have always made clear my opinion that Werewolf, the regular variety at least, is a team game. I consider that all on the winning team are entitled to share in the victory, even if they do not survive to the end. As for this game (which is hardly regular), I remain unclear whether the Wolves were ever on the same team. I would have made the same enquiry regarding that issue whether a Wolf or innocent. Difference is, I would not have revealed my understanding had I been a Wolf.

I see that the village is leaning towards lynching Diamond. Unless I am much mistaken, however, she has not put in an appearance toDay. Would a Wolf really be absent for the best part of the Day with so few villagers and a distinct possibility of being lynched? Unless she is gambling on us giving her the same leeway that we gave Kath teo Days ago.

Hmm.

**The Saucepan Man** · 11-21-2006, 05:09 PM

In light of what the FeaMod said, is there any point in me trawling through Mith's posts?

I'm betting that it was the thing about the phantom being loud and annoying.

the phantom · 11-21-2006, 05:08 PM

It would be nice if everyone was here. You see, I just had a wild idea for a plan that would guarantee a Villager victory.

Now, that doesn't mean anyone would go along with it. The plan is ridiculous and so I can see people refusing it, but the fact remains that it is a fool proof plan. The main reason people wouldn't go along with it is that there doesn't seem to be absolute trust in my declaration of innocence. To that, I don't know what to say, other than just think of who you're dealing with here, and trust your gut. Surely in your gut you know I'm innocent and that I wouldn't be content to win as a WW at this point.

And then, even if you don't trust my declaration, trust statistics. From the view of another innocent, there is only a 25% chance that I am a WW. That's as good odds as you can get in this game. You might as well take a gamble and trust me.

Then, once everyone agrees to trust me, the four of you use all of your votes up so that there can't be any take-backs. Tie everyone at one vote a piece so that I can decide who to lynch.

Then, all four of you go back to their most recent post and EDIT IT!!

As you know, according to the rules that will give you instant death. And so, if everyone dies except me then the village wins! And if anyone refuses to edit their post, then it is obvious that they are the remaining WW and I will vote to lynch them and thus they will die despite their refusal to edit their post.

That's brilliant, eh?

Of course, there's no possible way it's going to happen because Kath isn't here and I think Mith is gone now, too.

But I just had to say it. I couldn't resist.

Mithalwen · 11-21-2006, 04:07 PM

Di.... Kath seems more convincing today.. and it may be nothing but somehow night kills of Elempi, Roa, Nogrod seem more Di than Kath.

But any of you could be guilty. but I think Di or Kath are most likely ..you and Sauce ... hmm alpha male combats are not a wolvish monopoly.......

but for today I will go for the distaff section of the village......I think..
