Complete List of All Valid Votes

Lottie –> Pitchwife.

I'm going to vote for ++Lottie because she's pushing everyone to vote. Very wolfish.

EDIT: For the forth time, hopefully i get it!

You've not highlighted. I can't believe I'm pointing this out; this is an insanely bad vote. Not only have you not reasoned, but you're voting for (and the rate this is going, possibly lynching!) an innocent.

EDIT: Still not normal formatting. Modwen, are you accepting that?

EDITEDIT: Try putting the vote on its own special line. As someone once said, on its own little island of votedom.

No I did. I tried and tried again. FINALLY I got the fact that that [CODE] is sopost to be [HIGHLIGHT] !!!

[Isabellkya]

Loslote. BlindGuardian fixed the tag error. It is highlighted now. Try a refresh?


X'd with BG, Dun, and Shasta.

It's been a work-in-progress for several minutes now.

Did you really intend that to be a vote, BG? If so, your reasoning is beyond poor.

x/d with Izzy and BG

[Shastanis Althreduin]

BG, when you're the only one with a vote, you're going to push others to vote as well. One innocent can't lynch a wolf by his/herself. The reasoning for your vote is entirely specious, and that, combined with your "I couldn't be a wolf twice in a row" defense from earlier is going to end up as follows -

++Blind Guardian

[Nerwen]

Lottie –> Pitchwife.
Blind Guardian –> Lottie.
Isabellkya –> Blind Guardian.

See a pattern?

I'm almost disappointed next vote wasn't for Izzy.

Shasta –> Blind Guardian (2).

[Isabellkya]

++Blind Guardian

I really fail to understand why you are voting for someone whom you said was 'relatively innocent'.

Good point. I'd forgotten that.

[wilwarin538]

KK. I'm here, and there's what, 20 minutes left right? I'm going to skim over things quickly and try to come up with something semi logical before I fall asleep.

[Isabellkya]

Haha @ the pattern. Dang Shasta ruined it!

[Blind Guardian]

OH FOR GOD SAKE I"M THE SEER! THE TELEPATH! NICE GOING!!

Now I'm going to go cry...

[Inziladun]

DL. Silence.

[Nerwen]

BG, no-one is officially dead until I say so.

So let me say so now: You're dead.

There.

[Nerwen]

Death of a Telepath

The crew of the Lothlórien– at least those who could be spared from their duties– gathered on the bridge to discuss their alarming situation. Well, most of them did, though Ensign Blind Guardian was more concerned with her breakfast and MCPO Loslote was so worried about the engine that she had scarcely noticed the double murder.

Argue as they might, they could hit upon no way of detecting a Metamorph– except by killing it, of course. At first the full import of the Captain's words had not really sunk in, but as the Day progressed and the talk failed to, the crew began to look at each other askance. It could, they realised, be anyone...

"Now, there's a clue here that none of you have noticed yet," said MCPO Loslote. "Who stands most to gain with Captain McNerwen dead? Her second-in-command, Zil."

"I don't suspect anyone," remarked Lieutenant Sally vaguely, "except perhaps me. Yes, I definitely think we should lynch me toDay. Or not. Which way's left?"

"If that's not the real Lieutenant, it's certainly done its homework," Loslote muttered under her breath.

"Ensign Guardian looks very suspicious," said Eomer, narrowly eyeing the Lothlórien's newest recruit. The Security Officer would give no reason for this statement, but the young Ensign's nervous manner attracted more and more attention.

"Ensign, what do you have to say to Eomer's accusation?" asked Pitchwife, the Communications Officer.

"He's crazy! I know I'm not a morph! Let me go and walk my dog!"

"Well, then, stating your opinions of other crewmembers would be a good starting point."

"Er... um...I'm pretty sure Chief Engineer Loslote's innocent," said the Tactical Officer quickly. "No, wait, she's a Metamorph! Kill her!"

"Ma'am, you just said you thought she was innocent!" Technician Isabellkya pointed out.

"Oh, crud, I did!" Blind Guardian wailed.

Taking this for a confession, everyone drew their weapons and pointed them at the hapless Ensign.

"You've got it all wrong!" the Tactical Officer protested, tears starting in her eyes. "I'm not a morph, I tell you! I'm– I'm THE TELEPATH! Nice going, I was just trying to– AAAARRRRGGHHH!!!!" Blind Guardian clutched her head, as blood poured from her eyes, eyes and nostrils. Screaming, she collapsed to the floor, her body jerking in increasingly violent convulsions. Finally, she was still.

A large dog of indeterminate breed pushed its way through the horrified onlookers, nosed at its mistress and licked her face, but Ensign Guardian did not move. Foam flecked her open lips. Her eyes stared blankly at the ceiling.

The dog sat back on its haunches to emit a long howl of grief and despair.

Terran Intelligence conditioning cannot be broken with impunity.

It is now Night Two.

[Isabellkya]

For clarification. My #52 was in response to Loslote's #37.
It happens quite often, not even sure why I need to point to it again. People will rule x player out of being a wolf for x reason, because wolves just won't do that. Most often it happens with new players. Quite a few people completely ruled Paranoia out as a wolf, because he was new to the BD - which they read as new to Werewolf in general. Which was not true. I've played in games with him before, it was even stated. Wolves will do just about anything under the sun, especially if it will further their cause - a victory.

My reason for voting for BG implied fabrication/lying/falsehood. Things don't need to be spelled out like that, for it to be seen.

No. 99% of the time, innocents do not need to fabricate a list of their suspicions. Even if they have a result which they are trying to get out - there is still the rest of the player list. Which will have honest suspicions. Wolves on the other hand, know whom the wolves are - therefore will not have honest suspicions.

Really Rikae; suspecting me is all good and fine. But twisting my words, and putting your own meanings to what I said - is beyond ridiculous.

I stated right with my seer thought, that I immediately ruled BG out - as she was too new to try a move such as that.

Again, you are giving your own reasons to what I actually said and meant. I can be a stickler for details. I don't sit well - ever - with people attributing data to me wrongly. I own up to my own actions - but say I did something which I didn't; what I should just continue to let people think that I voted BG because of last game; when I did not. It is conclusions based upon false information.


X'd with everything after #208.

[Nerwen]

Ten minutes.

For, of course, previously stated reasons...

EDIT: xed with Rikae...actually, none of the BeiGe-bandwaggoners were particularly inexperienced...

Point still stands. If I were a wolf going for a convoluted bluff like that would have to have been, I would only do so among a bunch of players experienced enough to know how common such Day 1 innocent lynchings for blunders are. Obviously, this was not such a village - the proof is in the pudding.

Edit: X'd with DL - oops.

[Rikae]

So, Izzy, you think that it's reasonable to say that copying someone else's suspicion list and then voting, three posts later, for a person you listed as "relatively innocentish" is the sort of thing to further a wolf's victory? On day one, in a village full of inexperienced players eager to lynch for a silly blunder? Wow. I've seen you as a wolf before, and you can be surprisingly formidable, considering you hold such absurd views about wolfish success.

ROFL.

[Isabellkya]

I thought we were supposed to be voting for whom we thought suspicious. Not whom had more potential to be lynched. Or did the nature of werewolf change in the last week or something without my knowledge?

Rikae. Why do you think this village is full of inexperienced players? 98% of what you say is absolutely ridiculous.

++Rikae

You can deem it as OMGUS I suppose, though that isn't the reason. Yes we interpret what others do - but blatantly spinning it to fit your vote.. come on.

[Nerwen]

Deadline.

If you disliked even her simple use of Lottie's list so much, why didn't you say so yesterDay?

I wish that were true. However, I've played a few werewolf games myself, you know. In my experience, they very often do just that on Day 1.

No, this is backwards. A wolf has no reason to care who is lynched, as long as it's not a buddy - and therefore has the luxury of voting in the way that seems most plausible and consistent. Innocents may have to change their minds in the search for a real baddie.

Ok, so you did. I did not twist your words, I forgot.
I still don't buy it, though, and don't see the point in even mentioning it.

[Isabellkya]

Okay. So I'm guessing that the secret role is indeed akin to a WereBear or simply a third party. They hunt someone/thing specific; yet aren't adverse to killing anything in their path?

This third party attacked Loslote, and the remaining Metamorph finished her off, in some sort of revenge kill? Or just plot to show that the Third Party & Metamorph both chose to kill Loslote.

Dun. If Wilwa and I were morphmates. Why throw my vote away on Rikae? Why not 'seize opportunity and find a plausible reason to vote for someone other than Wilwa', whom would keep her away from the noose? Some one like.. Paranoia for instance. I was the last vote, why not try and save her?

The "third party" tried to kill the person Lottie was protecting; Lottie then fought it (made a save). The Metamorph killed Lottie in the usual way. (The bit about being Wilwa's mate was just for narrative purposes– it wasn't really a Lover's revenge kill). I realised after I'd posted that it's a bit misleading.
