As you wish, m'lady.

(Oh, vy ze whey, will the real Finrod please not speak up? Hehe.)

Ahaha.
This pub gets lousy YouTube results.
Otherwise I would've find a fitting video.
I thought Monty Python had one.
I know Homer Simpson does.

All right, so we have:
  • two innocents cleared by Lúthien;
  • hoping Lúthien's last dream transmitted to an ordo (perhaps innocent); and
  • hoping that Finrod is not one of the aforementioned.

That means we have possibly four known innocents, that's half of the village.

Ah, but this bonus votes issue is skewing majority voting. >.< I'm hoping to have you four eliminate the four unknowns, so we'll have a 75% chance of getting one of the baddies.

What if we all agree not to use our bonus votes toDAY? Hmmm . . .

Oh, darn, it's a bad DAY for us if we have to resort to plans like this to have a chance of winning. It's like being forced to use your Encircled Terrain before he uses his Desperate Wager. (And you don't even know if the other side has anti-terrain meta.) >.<

I'm all for a 1 for 1 exchange.

I don't know why Formendacil did what he did, you can ask him afterwards. But, he was not completely lying when he said he didn't have a dream the prior night, because he wouldn't get the message when he transmits. He had no idea, but you should notice he trusted my Nilp vote, and did not vote for Sally, eventhough he appeared more suspicious about her.

Quote:
Why not come out yesterDay with the passed on dream result?
On what, Nilp? Green?. You've never specified.
Would've saved Sally from death. Would put us in a better position toDay.
I needed more information. I couldn't just spill the beans immediately, everyone would jump on the bandwagon and we'd get nothing out of it. And based on the joke action we've had the past couple days, I was going to try and get whatever additional information I could by putting Nilp under pressure. The two bonus votes I added towards the end, I wasn't concerned about Thuringwethil, I wanted to see who and how far people would go to save him.

I can only assume the three feel they have a strong amount of bonus and thought it didn't matter if they blatantly save Nilp.

As far as Sally, I wrongfully assumed she was going to use her bonus to save herself.

Edit: I deleted my message above this, because I had accidentally hit "enter/post" in the middle of typing - I didn't change any words promise, just added the rest of what I wanted to say

I was going to suggest we dump them all, and that means everyone, we dump all bonus and that way we get a clean slate and may the best side win.

Hmm...or we dump them all except for Fea, as she would be the only person with bonus we could trust at this point.

Eye

Let me get this straight--Kent, are you saying that Form sent you his dream about me, and I was a Wolf in it?

Is there a secret thing here about muddling the Lúthien dream?

This is why I've been rather heated when discussing this thing with you. I know what I am, and I know you are false when you are accusing me otherwise.

Please get vendetta out of this game. Otherwise I'll just get myself modfired and hand the Wolves the victory.

If you can get blind rage out of your senses you can see I'm the only one toDAY who's been pondering how we can survive this DAY.

Green being innocent helps; let's just hope that Shasta and Gwath are both not evil.

I'll leave it to Finrod if he'll heed my plan in 773. But the good side needs direction in their votes.

z.B. if Shasta is our Finrod, then:

Innocent:
Fea
Green
Kent
Shasta

Unknown:
Gwath
Izzy
Lari
Nilp

Then just proceed to lynch one of the unknown, without using bonus votes. But if one of them struggles (uses bonus votes), then have at xim, and force xim to draw out xyr allies.

It's not blind rage, buddy, it was necessary for me to figure you out. I would be lying if I said today I wasn't suspicious of you and that was based on the voting action at the end of the day. And because of that you were the most convincing person I could fake.

I received no transmission, I've been doing whatever I can to gather information about people, because heaven knows action has been sparse. Now as I said people might not like my strategy and I apologize for causing any unwarranted frustration, but I assure you it was neccessary to help me figure you out.

You passed...that's a good thing.

Thumbs up

You, sir, are far better at eliciting reactions from people than I am. For that, I salute you.

I am most honoured to be in your first game.

Just hoping that somehow, we could pull off a win. (I also need to snap a three-game losing streak. >.< )

Last minute thoughts before I leave for supper (I'll be back right before the deadline; hoping I won't return to hear the baddies gloating):

I do hope the person we'll lynch (if we do get a Wolf) is not Thuringwethil; it would give us another target for tomorrow.

A minor correction: I'm on a four-game losing streak (Nogrod's DW, Mac's, Brinn's, and Durelin's.)

I hate dueling.
