T-I-G LVI: Panic at the Prancing Pony

[Brinniel]

Sally: Her first several posts are banter, but it's her posts at the end of the Day that make me slightly uneasy. Her opinions on players seem non-committed.

Fea: I don't like her voting yesterDay, particularly the timing of it. Of course maybe I'm just biased because the vote was for me, but I still think the placement looks bad.

Lariren: Her vote might've been a throwaway, but I actually don't find it all that suspicious. Nothing about her jumps out to me, however I am wary since she did play a brilliant wolf last game.

Mirandir: Has made a decent number of posts, but they are all short containing only a couple of lines. I really would like to hear more from her.

Lommy: Her posts are quite sensible so far and I think she looks rather innocentish.

Legate: Seems sensible, but careful. I've also learned a sensible Legate, can mean an evil Legate. Nothing particularly suspicious about him at the moment, however I would like to keep my eye on him.

Rikae: Looks to be her bold self as usual. Doesn't necessarily point to either guilt or innocence.

Aganzir: Is a big question mark to me. I go back and forth on her with each post. I admit I don't find her an easy person to trust, therefore I can't help but feel the need to watch out for her.

Nogrod: Contrary to what others have been saying, I think he looks more innocentish than guilty. He's not as smooth as he can be when a wolf and I somehow doubt he would experiment with a new playing style if he were evil. And toDay his reaction to being suspected looked rather honest.

Beregond: How many nicknames does this poor guy have? I see some newbie-ish behaviour, but overall I think he's doing well for his first game. And I certainly won't underestimate the possibility of a newbie being a wraith.

Nerwen: I don't like how she suddenly jumped in with her vote, it looks a bit fishy. But otherwise her posts don't exactly stand out as terribly suspicious. I will keep an eye on her.

Rune: Of course I don't like how he's attacked me, but he's always had this negative attitude towards me and while yesterDay it was more intense than I ever recall it being, I don't think it necessarily points to guilt. If anything, it's more likely innocent behaviour, but then again I've never seen Rune play a wolf so I honestly don't know how he would behave as one.

Mac: Yes, his Ferny comment did look rather odd, but I don't think that's enough reason alone to seriously suspect him. And his other posts don't look all that suspicious to me.

Menel: Has made the least amount of posts so far. Where is he?

Durelin: So far her posts look innocent and sincere. But I would like to see more of her.

Greenie: Her posts toDay seem suspiciously careful and well thought out, which worries me.

(Okay, I was in the middle of writing this post when the whole Rikae thing came up. I'm not sure what to make of all this, but I thought she was just joking. Was she not? )

EDIT: X-ed with Agan

I think she was joking, but I had nothing better to do than pretend she was serious and see what I could dig up with that assumption.

[Brinniel]

Well, I really can't see that seer comment being anything serious. It looks more like another Rikae/Mac joke. But I'm finding everyone's reactions to the comment to be very odd.

I can't see what kind of benefit comes from pretending such a thing. It just causes distractions.

Option: she's just kidding and it's a harmless waste of time while I'm at work.

Option: she's actually the seer and we need to figure out what clues she left because she stands a shot of dying tonight

Option: she's actually Frodo and wants to be turned tonight (thereby making a target out of herself)

Option: she's a bad guy and we need to figure out her motives

Option: insert any option you like.

What benefit doesn't come from taking a close look at statements? If it's a joke, I'm not particularly upset about a bit of time taken from my day. If it's not, I've got a head start on figuring out what it means.

I'd suggest we keep any speculation regarding the Innkeeper/Seer to ourselves. Discussing Seerish comments openly just draws the wraiths towrd the true Seer, which isn't good. True, it may help to protect said person, but I personally think it wise to conceal the Seer's identity from xyr enemies as long as possible.

I'm still suspicious of Mac, due to his ongoing suspicion of Gollum.

Unless a person in being blatantly obvious, in which case discussion is fair game because the person obviously wants to be discussed for whatever reason.

Besides... it gives me something to do instead of be angsty.

I agree in part. If Rikae did not blatantly name herself as the seer, it would be a different story. As Fea said, it's out in the open.

But there are certain speculations that should not be tabled.

At any rate, Rikae has spoken. Whatever your intentions, thanks for making today interesting.

Do you have a reason for giving that as the reason, or?

[Rikae]

Never mind, let's lynch Berry and Greenie. They're sending hints.

Carrots and potatoes clearly indicate... whoever's name Berry Ferny sent to the little green wraith... only trouble is, who would that be...

After you made this post Lommy, I reread Mac's sentence and I actually this might be just a misunderstanding in language. You're reading it as "most probably joking," but I think he might've meant to say "joking most probably because nobody's paying attention to her." At least that's how I'm reading it.

Now this is one option I don't get. If there's any possibility she actually is the seer, why would you spotlight it and further risk the chances of her getting killed?

[Mirandir]

Okay, I've read and gotten caught up but unfortunately don't have time to comment on anything due to a prior commitment that is going to eat up the bulk of the remainder of my day. With any luck I'll be back within a few hours of deadline and be able to actually contribute then.

Because saying "I'm the seer, kill this person, here's my evidence" isn't spotlighting herself without my help? Me pretending I'm blind doesn't make wraiths blind.

*stops*

I just realized something significant.

I shall hush.

Rikae: onward and upward.

[Meneltarmacil]

Fea, if you're suggesting we ought to lynch Mac, I'm up for it.

[A Little Green]

Why is it that I feel completely lost? I'm not smart enough to get any sense out of all this suttf. I've lost the track of this discussion completely. Shall we talk about... hmmm... carrots?

The thing is, would anyone else have given her comment a second thought if you hadn't brought it up first? It didn't look like she was spotlighting herself, it seemed pretty much a casual joke to me. I just can't understand why it'd be helpful to point out Rikae's seerish comments, whether she really is the seer or if it's just a ploy. I guess I just don't get your logic in all of this.
