That reason being that my account has 666 posts and SOMEONE refuses to let me post again and thus forked over his account information.

That's kinda the point of the game. To figure that out. Try working some suspicions out for yourself and see where that gets us.

It's not so much that it leaves Boro, he just happens to look guilty. There are plenty of other people who could be wolves. Actually, three more, to be specific.

For example...I still don't like Morsul's refusal to vote. And there are several people (Glirdy, Wilwa, Cabbie, and Tum come to mind) who haven't really posted and thus haven't given us much to work with. But Boro does look bad, I'll readily give you that.

True. I don't like Morsul's refusal to vote either. Might be a wolf trying to act innocent.

Yeah; I'm almost always an aggressive player, so uh sorry if I'm stepping on toes.

Reading over everything since I left last night; I'll be back in probably 10-15 minutes with my four picks at scum. (I.E. wolves.)

Boro's plan is clearly a desperate attempt to save himself. There are a number of suspect-looking folk around– why, in that case, should we waste the lynch?

That only ever makes sense if there's no real candidate, and that's not the case here.

I wonder at tum for going along with it. Yes, I do.

Exactly. Like I said, even if you think throwing away the lynch can be okay in some circumstances, those circumstances do not apply here. It's just nonsense.

I'm pretty darned sure he's a wolf.

I agree with this. Well, the second bit especially. There's lots of real candidates I'd be happy with -well at least a few- and this "backup" plan could too easily turn into a cheap lynch for the Day. Like I said before, I'm not against this idea in a game where there's retractables and we all agree that in a crisis we'll switch to the dead weight, but in this situation it's too easy to muck up.



I got distracted, sorry. List in a few.

And now everyone's quiet.

Nerwen-->Boro
Morsul-->Blind
Boro-->Cab
Tum-->Cab (2)
Mira(ish)-->Blind (2)
Blind-->Cab (3)
Dun-->Boro (2)
Paranoia-->Boro (3)
Cel-->Boro (4)



EDIT: Fixed my vote count, as I missed Blind's vote because it wasn't in standard format.

Yes you can. Just type [ highlight ] your text [ /highlight] except without the spaces in the coding. It's the same as manually typing in a bold or center code.




And I'm REALLY not liking how -as I predicted- Boro's contingency plan is turrning into a fullout McCaber wagon really darn quickly. Bloody told you so....


EDIT: x'd with Nerwen and Dun

Okay, so I hate making such dramatic policy reversals, but Blind's last post bugs me hardcore. She (right?) has just jumped up into my top category (or rather the bottom one), newbie pass or no.


Analysis time, I think.

Okay, the Boro and Tum votes for Cabbie were bad enough, but this looks a lot like bandwaggoning against an easy, wasteful lynch. It might also be a newbie following what she things is good reasoning, but it's looking bad for BeiGe.

Why are you going to vote for McCaber, Blind? It's a worthless throwaway.

EDIT:X'd since last vote.

WOAH! Hold your horses there! I can't believe you you were considering Boro suspicious earlier, but are readily going along with the wagon counter to his lynch; really makes me think you're trying your best to make sure Boro doesn't die. Really makes you look mighty furry together.

*I* really don't like how fast the wagon counter to the Boro wagon is picking up speed, but part of me has is a wee bit paranoid (just a wee bit) that this is bussing an inactive wolf to save an active one.

So without getting much of a chance to go over things, I think I'm go... wait. I do know. I'm voting...

Boromir.

Paranoia, you have to put two plusses in front of your vote or it doesn't count. Kudos on getting the highlight though; I know I used to forget all the time!

I thought Boro was looking rather better, until all this about McCaber.

I can't be around for DL toDay, so I have to vote now.

Boro is tempting. Still, there's that little bit of doubt that tells me he could be a misunderstood innocent.
Or, I could stir the pot a bit and vote for Celuien, who, after posting almost nothing on Day 1 beyond rules discussions, made a throwaway vote on the grounds that she didn't think anyone was really suspicious. She hasn't been here at all toDay that I recall.

Hmmm. Make it....

++Boro

Sorry if you're innocent, mate, but I can't get past the idea you're trying to lead us astray.

x/d with all since 283
