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?

I'm around Lommy.

The more I've seen of Brinn toDay the less I have suspected her. Brinn I thought came across as very innocent in the floodposting she did, I don't believe a wolvish Brinn would speak out that much or that there wouldn't be anything jumping out as suspicious in all that talk. Oh and to answer a question of hers, that thing I said about lynching her for her long posts was indeed a joke.

Unfortunately that means I've lost pretty much the only suspect I have! I've been thinking about the double lynch idea but I really don't know who I would put on the lynching block with Gil.

If we make a double lynch we lose all we gain by lynching Gil. If we want to double lynch people, I suggest picking two people that might actually be wolves, not Gil.

If we double lynch, today is the final Day. So then we'd better get it right. And if we want to get it right, we don't lynch Gil.

If we just single lynch today, toMorrow is the final Day and Gil's death has simply bought us time and removed one more option from our lynch list.

Btw, assuming that we two and Gil are innocent, we have a 66% chance of getting it right if we double-lynch two of the others. Tempting, isn't it? But then again, if we get it wrong...

Random calculations here ... because I'm not sure you're right.

Alive:
Kath
Lommy
Nerwen
Greenie
Brinn
Gil

Gil and Nerwen die lynched.

Lommy dies by kill.

Alive next Day:
Kath
Greenie
Brinn

So wouldn't we still have toMorrow as well?

Noogles is kind of pressuring me to get done with ww so that he can send his audio clips to Brinn...

So, Kath, what shall we do? Shall we lynch Gil as was planned? Or shall we gamble and go for a risky double-lynch? If we do that (I'm not sure if it's wise) I insist we lynch Nerwen at least.

The profit of the double-lynch is that we get to remove two unknowns while toMorrow we only get to remove one. One other player will be removed by then, yes, but it's most probably me whom no one suspects, so it won't really probably remove a lynch option in anyone's mind.

The profit of lynching Gil is that we still have more time and our lynch toMorrow will probably be better thought of than any ex tempore double lynch right now.

Still, I'm tempted... Aieee.
