Alright, having read the sacrifice rules, it's basically two lynches today, with the sacrifice happening before the lynch. Goody. That means we can get rid of two of the four people who killed Lottie yesterday, instead of just one.

Oh, and for reference, my personal picks are Boro and Bes. I'll be back later to explain.

Voting for someone who I thought was more likely a wolf than Lommy? If you're going to take that rude/offensive tone (fortunately family-friendly prevents me from using words I wish to use) and refuse to see that it was a necessary risk we had to find out than I will shove you through the key hole, or however it is someone is supposed to be sacrificed.

Even though you are probably innocent, get off your moral high horse.

That would be the most foolish thing we could possibly do at this time. I may not have lynched a wolf yet (how many for you Shasta? ) but at least I can say we haven't made ridiculous lynches based off emotion and flimsy vague feelings. If you want to blow our chance because you're po'ed, for some ungodly and unknown reason be my guest.

As for me, I say we sacrifice one and don't lynch. Preference right now is sally who can not possibly have had any good intentions from her posts yesterday at the end of the day.

"Glass houses," Boro. Ever hear of them? I absolutely defy you to try and dismiss what I'm saying as being "rude and offensive" when you're one of the ones who pushed through Lottie's lynch yesterday when you knew she wouldn't be around to defend herself.

Stop putting words in my mouth. The most foolish thing we could do at this point is to not use our double lynch today, considering that both Gifted are still around. You can try and dismiss what I say as "Oh Shasta's just mad" all you like - it won't work.

Seriously messed up in the head? And then the CAPS lock? You don't consider that a rude tone? Sorry, but I do.

Shasta, someone's gotta go every day. I'm sure Lottie might think it sucks, I don't know, but she should understand this is how it works. Is that cold? A little...I'll send Lottie a message or something to make-up for it. Offensive? No, it's a game we have to decide who leaves it. When we're wrong we wipe our hands and move on. It does no good to berate people for being wrong. So, like I said get off your high horse like you're some righteous innocent protector.

What words are you talking about? I said yesterday if people thought I was too big of a question mark, I would have been perfectly fine with being lynched. If it comforts you, you can sacrifice me today, if this is the way you're going to be I don't care at this point. But there is no way in hell we are killing 2 people today because you're emotions are high.

Oi! Boro, Shasta, chill. Arguing will get us nowhere.


So Brinn's dead, and toDay we must lynch two (more or less). I have an idea, and it may not be popular but I think it'll work.


I think the hunter should come out toDay.


There. I'll just let that sink in a bit, then I'll explain.

I think I see where you're going with this. The hunter has two shots at a wolf, since there are two alive. If we sacrifice the hunter and take those two shots, plus lynch someone not on the hunter's list, that's three shots at two wolves today.

Am I right?

Calming down a bit...

Alright.

First off, I apologize for the first thing I said today. Believe it or not, I meant it to come out jokingly, and it didn't turn out that way. I didn't mean to insult anyone, and I'm sorry.

Secondly, I'm making such a big deal out of the way Lottie's lynch went down because I know there are people who act just like that when they're evil. Phantom is one.

Thirdly, the "words" I'm talking about are when you said I want to lynch people because I'm mad. Not true.

Edit: X'ed with Sally.

Fair enough, I take back my high horse comments. Sorry, sometimes I read things as "what are you doing?" as "you're an idiot."

You were right about Lottie, I was wrong. Let's leave it at that.

Without quoting, lots of people were apparently surprised by my vote yesterday. I really don't see why: Yes, I originally thought the Birthday Dreamer role turning Lottie into a wolf seemed awkward and out of place with Lottie's behavior. I also then found and posted evidence to the contrary, and read other people's takes on the situation before coming to a decision.

Sure, we were wrong and Lottie wasn't a wolf. We know this now, whee and such. That doesn't change that I had every reason at the start to think that Lottie wasn't a wolf, and after I had pretty good reasons to change my mind, with citation to boot. That citation was even backed up, using references to the role in yet another game. After that, whether or not the game started on Legate's birthday came into debate, some people saying yes and others no. Lottie was accused of being a wolf, looked like she was going down, and suddenly I was all suspicious for 'defending' her (selective reading? I guess so.) What choice was there but to vote for her? I mean, barring a throw away vote that had nothing to do with what had happened that day, or voting for Nog who at the time seemed to be making sense and had no other votes.

Anyway, why ARE you so emotional about the vote, Shasta? Is it just because you wanted Lommie to get lynched, or is there something else going on here?

All of that said, Nog looks odd to me now. It was a long while back, but I've shown that he knew exactly what the Birthday Dreamer role usually is before this game, but he acted like it was some sudden revelation yesterDay. It could be nothing, but it looks at least slightly suspicious now that we know Lottie didn't become a wolf I think.

Also, I bet I'll cross with a few, as usual.

Edit: Crossed with Shasta, Boro, Shasta, Nog, Shasta and Nog. I feel like I type slow now.
