1) Careful isn't one of my strong points.

2) The phantom isn't likely to kill me until later, if he's going to kill me at all. And of course he's going to try to kill me. If he's a wolf, he has to. If he's a cobbler, he'd like to. And if he's a villager, he'll kill everybody else to ascertain victory because one innocent standing is still a microcosmic victory for the entire village, and knowing him, he's likely to propose that we whittle ourselves away until he's the last one standing, at which point he will shout his true identity and we'll see who won. Point being, I doubt he'll try to kill me yet. You? You might be in more trouble. Chances are, Shasta's in bigger trouble than you. Me? I'm pretty safe.

He's usually not quite this playful, and more verbose. Dead Serious is a very appropriate pt.

Aww! You're right, though. But Gwath doesn't know me as well as others. It's quite possible he took me for granted. But there's the obvious other choice, which I'd take as a seer playing against myself: I'd not bother with the phantom and Fea, knowing they'd probably just get themselves lynched anyway. Why waste dreams on conspicuous people? Dream of low profile folk who don't garner votes, and can hide. Dream of the people who have no evidence mounting against them otherwise. If I was seer, I'd be dreaming little dreams. Me and the phantom? Masters we are, but I wouldn't dream of either of us.

Maybe he did think through the argument and posted anyway because cobblers enjoy confusing people.

Scenario: Ordo Kath has not been around as often as is usual. Consequently, when she reads, she skims to keep up. Adding to the high paced read through, she has prior knowledge of several players. The phantom and Fea are not new to her: she knows that she would dream of them. She posits the theory while she has time, with the idea to come back later and think a bit harder.

Lynch her anyway?

Bah, can't talk now. Have music practice. Then teaching little kids. Then lunch.

But I'll find at least an opportunity or two to jump on and skim between all of that. This is by far my worst 24 hour cycle as far as finding time to keep up.

In the final head count, the cobblers are the same as innocents.

If the number of innocents should equal that of the wolves and cobblers combined, the game will continue, either until the number of wolves is equal to that of innocents plus cobblers, or until all wolves are dead.

Oh go on then, lynch me.

Nah don't, I'm having a rather nice time. Been a while since I've lived, perhaps I'm high on the experience. Anyway, phantom, I never said that Gwath was stupid, I don't believe that's true, I was in fact defending him against those who said he'd list people he'd dreamt of as Innocent. As to him dreaming of two wolves and not saying anything, ok, I didn't think that through. But in that case, you're a wolf and he hadn't yet dreamt of Fea - sorted.

If this is annoying you then you have my apologies, I seem to have no desire to play in my usual style, it's so boring.

Wait, that last paragraph of my post #328 doesn't make sense to me now, on afterthought. I was just posting my thoughts out loud. And once I'd thought the better of my little theory, I couldn't change it, could I? That's just makes things worse.

I think that at the time when I wrote that I was looking at a different Day, in which the commentary was posted over an hour after DL. If you had been really, really eager, you may have voted then. Anyway, I was just explaining my thought process at the time. I admit it, I didn't check the facts. I didn't think things through.


And by the way, phantom, just so you know- I don't suspect you, it was just an idea.

edit: And you are clearly over-reacting, too.

Clearly you haven't seen me in many villages. My behavior to this point is nothing compared to what I'm capable of.

I'm about to eat lunch at a birthday party, but I'll definitely be able to get back on before the deadline.

I don't know what to do with Kath. After that last post I still think she's not innocent. Problem is she's ringing the Cobbler alarm and not the Werewolf alarm, and I'd much rather lynch a Werewolf at this point seeing as we still have the Assassin around.

Oo, gotta go right now! Be back later.

Well, I've only seen you in DWII, and I didn't know how much of your "phantomness" (as I now know it was) was due to you being te GW or you being you. Now I know.
