Mith is kind of sounding like an OMT, whom is trying to reason with the village to keep her alive while she "helps".

OMT? I'm sorry? *tries to keep up with the acronyms*

Isabellkya · 03-22-2009, 03:15 PM

Oh sorry.

OMT? What is that? I like to know what I am being accused of.

And what exactly is unhelpful about identifying ducks? I'd really love to know. As I say when I stop doing so you are quite free to lynch me.

I'm going to look at the posts of my two potential votees and see if I can decide between them.

Lari first:

Day 1:
Huge amounts of pointless banter.

Some good ideas about possible role requirements and possible actual roles as well. The good cobbler idea is an interesting one and she does come up with the idea of someone having extra voting power.

Makes a list with not one single bit of reasoning and votes Durelin, who isn't even at the top of her guilty list, again with any reasoning.

Day 2:
Seemed to have an awful lot of confusion over the Lover role yet at the same time knew a lot about past roles. Which is what makes me a little suspicious of her when she acts the newbie.

Really keen on promoting the trailless kill idea, perhaps to try and keep people thinking there is nothing to see in the kill. Again that odd comment I noticed yesterDay.

List post - comes up with Lommy, Rikae, Mith, Mac and wilwa as suspects. Most of the reasoning is based on bad feelings with only her Mac suspicion having any real strength to it.

Votes Gwath - no reasoning in the post, having had no mention of him all Day.

Day 3:
Some good thoughts on what happened at Night.

Alright so most of my suspicion is based around the odd comment from yesterDay, the lack of reasoning behind any of her suspects and the complete randomness of her vote for Gwath with it's lack of explanation toDay.

Brinn next.

Kath · 03-22-2009, 04:10 PM

Now Brinn.

I was doing this at the same time as I was doing Lari which is why it follows on.

Day 1:
Huge amounts of pointless banter.

At the point where she becomes 'serious' she only really says who she won't vote for. Does make a good point about watching out for voting based on playing style.

Says she doesn't like Legate or Lommy's votes. Well she was right about Lommy but that could be due to being a fellow wolf or an innocent so that's not much help.

To answer a point of hers, I said to focus on the chatterers because while I think it possible that one person might have a requirement of not posting any substance I don't believe that any more than one person would have that requirement so I don't think it was a silly idea to look at them at all - especially now that my suspicions lie with two of those people.

Votes Legate and does have reasoning from earlier.

Day 2:
Nothing of substance, and I mean nothing, until we get to about post 498 and even then it's only asking Gwath to talk more. She complained the Day before about me singling her out when she wasn't around but she didn't really redeem herself here.

Talks about some players, only really has reasoning behind her conclusions for one person.

Pops up with suspicion of wilwa and Lommy. I wouldn't put it past her to be a wolf and have joined the Lommy bandwagon as I said earlier.

Defends Gwath which is interesting. Most people yesterDay seemed to think that both Gwath and Lommy were suspicious but to varying degrees with Lommy coming out top whereas Brinn argued Gwath's innocence and went for Lommy. Depending on what Gwath turns out to be (if he's anything) that could be a very good choice for a wolf willing to sacrifice a packmate.

Votes Lommy - no reasoning in the post.

Day 3:
Good thoughts on what happened at Night.

Lists wilwa, Nienna, me and Durelin as worrying but with no reasoning. Wonders about Rikae and does have a reason for that.

Goes with the Rikae thing.

My problem here is that so much of my suspicion is based on feelings, which is what I just suspected Lari for. But I'm wary that every reason I'm thinking of for suspecting Brinn could be due to that bad feeling I have about her. That said she hasn't had a huge amount of reasoning behind her suspicions. I think though that I find Lari more suspicious in general, especially because I can find more concrete reasons.

Do you think I'm holding back because I'm not making long thought-out posts containing lists for a change? You do know this is a behaviour modification game, right?

No to the first question, yes to the second. My behaviour has been horribly modified toDay but I'm getting my points across and I've got reasoning in there. I don't believe that your modification would stop you doing that effectively. I'm not suspecting you because of your playing style, I'm suspecting you because you complain about me being suspicious of you when you've not been around but when you are around you're just posting nonsense half the time. I'm suspecting you because I don't believe that three people's role requirements would be to post nonsense which seemed to be your argument.

Kath · 03-22-2009, 04:34 PM

Time to vote so:

++LARI

Between Brinn and Lari I feel more sure of her. When I looked through the Gwath voters she seemed pretty suspicious and then that 'I can't explain because of my role but also because I'm busy' post didn't really help things. In addition my reasoning for Brinn seems to be based mostly on feelings and I'm not confident about voting on those.

And that's it from me.
