Nerwen the questions you asked about Gil were exactly what I was worrying about when Lommy first mentioned it. Try thinking it through either in your head or on screen, it seemed to help for me. For me it's basically a choice between ending the game with a chance of winning or ending the game without one. If we leave Gil alive and he either turns out to be the wolf or the wolf leaves him alive at Night then on our final Day we're going to end up in a situation where we have no votes and the game ends with a whimper and we lose. If we lynch him toDay then at least the end of the game will be interesting and we can have more say in it.

That's my reasoning behind it anyway.

Yes, I get the point. It just seems a weird way to lynch.

Is no one besides me and Brinn (and maybe Kath, kind of) doing anything productive toDay? It's useless to play more time if we can't use it...

Thinlómien · 12-05-2008, 03:15 PM

Anyone around, btw? Greenie's in the room next to me, that I know, but others?

So, what people have been doing this far toDay

Brinniel - lynch speculating, providing quotes, analysing, main suspect atm: Nerwen
Gil-Galad - nothing
Greenie - (all talk just sort of general talk), main suspect atm: Brinn
Lommy - lynch speculating and rereading, main suspect atm: Nerwen
Kath - lynch speculating, main suspect atm: Brinn
Nerwen - mainly commenting with one-liners or questioning others' opinions, no main suspect

Based on this, Greenie and Nerwen seem either suspiciously uninvolved (the wolf would not need to find out stuff or get lynch things solved thoroughly with others) or busy.

Nerwen looks a bit fishy for voicing no suspicions. As if she was ready to join any bandwagon to save her own skin.

On the other hand, we can't clear the others because of having a main suspect. It's easy to pick one if you're not threatened yourself, or if there are two people equally suspected (this time, Brinn and Nerwen, it seems). Actually, I wonder why Nerwen just hasn't joined the "lynch Brinn" camp... Maybe because she's innocent after all?

Well it looks like my little summary was not of much assistance... it really didn't affect my opinions on people or anything, at most made me a tiny bit more suspicious of Greenie. Let's hope I cross-post with someone...

Phantom's post count is monstrous.

But I'm not sure if I've ever had this many posts in a single game either.

Yes, you're allowed to ask why I'm doing stuff like this. I'm just talking because no one else is. Who knows if I will inspire someone to write something, to write whatever. Because we've fallen back into silence...

Nerwen and Greenie, what do you think of lynching Gil? If you (still) don't approve of it, do you have any better ideas?
