1. That's reasonable.
2. That's not.
3. That's really not.
4. Nor's that.

Sorry Wilwa, but there's no sense in your criteria.

[Eomer of the Rohirrim]

Kath - Probably up to no good but no proof yet.

Nienna - Not treading on many toes yet. Sneaky.

Kent2010 - Looks like a sly one.

Legate of Amon Lanc - Gives an air of false nobility. Probably a villain.

Nogrod - Hmm, a curious one. Too easy to dismiss him as a candidate for being "too" aggressive.

Shastanis Althreduin - Seems ok I suppose.

Isabellkya - I think she's a clever one.

wilwarin538 - Don't like her vote, and not just because it's for me.

Nerwen - Another clever one.

Nilpaurion Felagund - Inclined to leave him alive (though unconvinced he deserves it).

Rune Son of Bjarne - Seems ok so far.

Lhunardawen - Seems a bit sneaky.

Groin Redbeard - n/a

satansaloser2005 - Probably up to no good but no proof yet. Just like Kath.

Eönwë - n/a

Brinniel - Probably one to kill.

[Nogrod]

Hey ho!

This is looking much better than it did when I went to bed. Lots of things to think and to rethink. For example Nienna looks much better now - and Brinn / Wilwa far worse.

Sadly I need to go yet again, but Ill be around for something like two hours before the DL.

This is looking like a good Day1 indeed for a change.

I'm sure a few of us saw what you were up to, Nog.

Well, have at it.

[Eomer of the Rohirrim]

Brinniel votes for Sally, apparently because she likes her.

Shasta for Nogrod, apparently because he's stirring up too much trouble.

Nilp for Nilp, apparently because he's still ill.

Rune for Isabellkya, apparently because he sees her as being a bit too careful with her opening post.

Wilwa for Eomer, because of process of elimination then coin-toss.

--------------------

Sally: 1
Nogrod: 1
Nilp: 1
Isabellkya: 1
Eomer: 1

--------------------

I think Rune's vote is the only one that makes sense, but that could just as easily mean he's a smart Ringwraith - so not too much to go on.

The other votes are all pretty dodgy.

Aye, that they be. I be keeping a weather-eye on the sorceress now, too. I never seen no good come o' sorcery yet.

But here be another thing. Accordin' to His Majesty O' Harad:

But what did the wench Sally say?

However I'd ask you to consider some other people toMorrow, as there are baddies to catch and I wouldn't want you to waste your time on me. No hard feelings though, of course. I hope you're able to participate more toMorrow though.

Now that be strange, true. The wench be sweet as sugar to the one as tried to hang her– 'tain't in nature, I'd have said. But then why does His Majesty say she's defensive, when she's just the other thing?

I be still needing to think.

Oh, yes please, my darling!

Sayonara!

Darling, you mustn't talk like that (with the voting that is). But....oooo, the rest sounds promising....

*fans herself*

Obviously I won't be around either, so I shall cast my vote for

++Nogrod

now before we are off. I just can't help thinking there are darker motives at work with Cap'n Nog.



Oh, Nilpie, darling, wait up!



ETA: Sorry, I thought I said this in my actual post, but must have forgotten. Eomer seems a bit defensive if you ask me.

*swoons and runs off after Nilp*

[Legate of Amon Lanc]

All right, back...

Eomer, you did not quote the sentence that followed - I said that of course one can post in-role, but it should be discerneable what is in role or not. My point of saying that people should quit roleplaying after second or third post meant: Quit posting posts which are NOTHING but roleplaying! If you post for half a day just about what ships you have looted or what wargs you have cloned, it is perhaps funny, but not the point of the game. This is Werewolf, not the RPG room. You should catch Wraiths and not play pirates. You can do that elsewhere. You can of course put in pirate slang or use a sort of "enhanced" way of expressing your doubts (instead of saying "we should lynch X" you can say "X should walk the plank", like we have seen f.ex. in Nerwen's recent post), that's fine. Or you can open your post with ranting about the lack of troops in your home country - but it should NOT be the only content of your posts.
The problem with you in particular is that I cannot tell how much of your post is in-role: or actually, if there is anything out-role at all. Because even the things you say which sound like suspicions or doubts or in-game questions, are mostly based on some in-role posting. That's why I said in my former post that I don't get you.

Well, simply - because if she says she has RL things to do, I can excuse her. Of course, for now - if she were doing this every day and saying "oh, sorry, I can't post" then of course, it would be nonsense. But it is just Day 1, and if such a thing happens once - well, it can happen to any of us, right?

Okay, saying defensive - I simply meant the fact that she is commenting on something like that in such a way. Okay, wrong use of words. By "defensive" I was aiming mainly on the aspect of her saying "I'd ask you to consider some other people tomorrow..." But you are right about the sugar part, yes.

Okay, otherwise: Nilp's appearance and self-vote does not look good to me at all, why is he doing that? I think that's a bit silly, if nothing else. I mean, it's a way of bringing attention, of course, but he could have as well not voted at all. This is just asking for attention.

wilwa's vote and the reasoning behind it is just bad. I mean - okay, maybe she does not have a preference of one subject over the other, but saying "" would be just a too easy cover for . Many people do that. Okay, I see - some just won't have chance to come back again, and have to vote, and it's Day 1, and they don't have that much suspicion - we know the stuff. But I think one should at least try to vote based on his or her best opinion, because then there is some actual stance behind the vote and not just "okay, it ended up that way". All right, true - wilwa basically said that both me and Eomer are equal suspects in her eyes, so it was just a choice between two similar things. But still.

Okay, so for now: I guess I will be watching sally as well as wilwa and Nilp, and Eomer is a whole chapter for me. From those who have not posted that much before, Nerwen now seems quite okay to me from the last reading.

I guess I'll be more or less around from now on, and see and think of my vote then.

Edit: x-ed with sally. Hmm..

Sorry Wilwa, but there's no sense in your criteria.

Uhm, I thought there was some sense actually. If I voted for someone who has barely posted everyone would be like "wow, hypocrite, you haven't posted much either", and too often has someone gotten trouble later on for copying someone elses vote, so I was not going to vote as someone else did. And rarely does anyone ever vote for someone who a) has never played or b) they've never played with, on a Day 1.

Votes are practically always random on Day 1, there's no way to avoid it, I just tried to put as much reason into it as possible before making my random choice.

Just popped in to see quickly before work, thought I'd put my immediate thoughts down.
