The good folk of Dol Amroth had departed, reeling in shock that they had been fooled by an impostor in the guise of their own candidate and wondered at the skill of the critics. The other singers retired once more to their dressing rooms - scarce relieved by the knowledge that there was one critic fewer when two yet remained.

They were right to be worried .... like a homeopathic remedy their potency increased as the amount reduced...

"Lax intonation, lacks timbre, lacks warmth, ..."

The traumatised and vulnerable mezzo from Harad fled from the unseen critics clutching her hastily gathered possessions and was resolving never to set foot in this barbarous land again when she ran straight in to the baritone from Lossarnach. He was very tall, very handsome... maybe Gondor had some redeeming qualities. She realised that he was holding a suitcase ...

"Where are you going? " she asked as he helped her pick up her belongings ....

"I've had enough of this competition ..I'm going home ....come with me its not far and you will be safe.. from the critics there " he said persuasively ..

Brinniel took some persuading but eventually decided she was safer following Bowissimo than risking the critics again and the pair left the Opera House for the last time.

The baritone's departure would be a suprise to all but one would be particularly furious that the bond they shared had meant so little to him that he had left without a word and with another singer.

You now have 2 Critics, Walter, The Divo/a and a very angry Soulmate who may take (ir)rational vengeance.

May I ask everyone to VOTE. The retractable votes are to allow you to vote early if necessary knowing that you may change your mind if you are able to return,

Oh great.

Now to do something constructive: I will analyze someone. Mac prepare to be analyzed!

Aganzir · 01-14-2009, 12:47 PM

I am Bowie's soulmate.

Therefore I would kindly request not to be lynched today.

I am planning to kill someone today because this is probably my last chance. I am under the impression that the person in question will be killed once I have submitted their name in & Mith is around, ie already before the end of the day. So if you need some actual proof about my innocence...

Also, it's no coincidence I put David Bowie quotes or slight alterations of them here and there in my posts and Strongbow quoted Lion King. If you want a list, here it is:

Quote:

The only quote he had was But maybe I've a glimmer of potential from Be Prepared. We decided to do this in case we would need to prove our innocence later. He stopped posting before getting any more quotes hidden, though.

And no I have no idea what has happened to him. Last time I talked to him was on day 2 I think.

As for my revenge kill, I have some options. However I would gladly like to see suggestions from you others.

I still don't know why tgwbs put me together with Fea. It's certain that he never dreamed of me though. Maybe he wanted to mislead the wolves or then he was just so certain about my guilt.

I want to go through Boro's posts and see if there's anything strange at some point today.

So was Brinn chased away by the critics or did she withdraw?

Mithalwen · 01-14-2009, 12:53 PM

Brinniel was the critics' target. Bowie was modfired ..I couldn't resist the duet. Still trying to find something worthy of Fea....

Boromir88 · 01-14-2009, 01:04 PM

I was just going to suggest the other soulmate should stay hidden so not to obscure data/information before making a kill choice.

Well, now that's pointless, thanks Agan. P.S. I'm convinced.

And that also means I now have to scrap my entire opening post, because I was going to set up a defense of monstrous proportions for you. So, thank you times deux.

Yes, I finally figured that out last night. I knew there was something weird about that post, but I was going about it the wrong way. I guess I haven't watched Lion King enough recently. I didn't recognize the lyrics. I had to type them into Google to finish the connection.

Early on I thought Bowie and Sally were the pair (because they both made the same error in spelling), but after I questioned Sally about her spelling and she didn't respond to it in the expected way, I scratched that idea. So all I was left with was that Bowie had made that one oddly worded post. Surely it had to mean something.

And Google told me it did.

Cailín · 01-14-2009, 01:11 PM

That was unexpected.

Boromir seemed to think Aganzir was gifted, yesterday, but then she denied it. Well, I am glad that we do not have to waste another lynching opportunity - I was quite disappointed that Fea and Aganzir were not killed in one blow, but now it is evident that TGWBS did not dream of both after all and we can maybe find a known innocent in his posts (though I doubt it will be obvious enough for us to fully trust such a hint).

I will have a look through some of the previous posts now that we have some more information, though I'll leave analysing Fea's contributions to someone less prone to frustration.
