But do as you will, Rikae - you're the moddess, it's your decision and no one's going to hold a grudge whatever you decide.

PS. I'm here. I have yet to read the live thread.

Thinlómien · 02-02-2011, 01:30 PM

Ha, we seem to be popular.

Thinlómien · 02-02-2011, 01:36 PM

PS. Dear moddess, almost a half of our dead population are Finnish. So it might be quiet from 2am to 9pm our time when we are sleeping/at school/working/seeing friends. We Finns are rather nocturnal, so we get active around this time. Agan is seeing her granny (I think?), Nog has choir practice on Wednesday evenings and I just returned from the cinema (saw King's Speech and I can definitely recommend that btw). Plus, out of the dead, BG didn't post at all when alive and Nessa hasn't posted anything after her death at all. So I'm not sure it'd be much noisier right now if we had more variable topics to talk about... This is all not to convince you to change the game rules if you think it would improve the dynamics, but merely make you less frustrated about our sorry silence.

PPS. Ha! I should start writing speeches.

Well, ok, I'll let you dead folk off the hook for now.

Actually, I'm just worried that flaws in the game mechanics were spoiling people's fun, although, of course, they might be simultaneously helping (some of) you win. I hope you're right and things get livelier... oh well...

(Incidentally, the "people" and "you" above refer to all players living and dead. Sorry, people, no clues here!)

Phantom, Please shut up!

*joking*

Rikae · 02-02-2011, 04:05 PM

To answer Aganzir, it's ok for BG to say anything she likes about her past or present role, true or false.

EDIT: Of course the usual rules about quoting pm's also apply.

Thinlómien · 02-02-2011, 04:10 PM

Gah, too tired to think about this anymore. I'm going to sleep. Sorry for the crappy participation toDay.

++Greenie

Seems like her solid, independent-minded self and can't really disagree with her suspicion of Sally. Don't trust Sallywolf or Bobbler a bit, and Nerwen and Angu not much more. Wilwa would've been my other option, but I think I can read Greenie better so I trsut my trust of her better, so to speak.

Aww but that's evil for two reasons: it was my plan, and at least I have also been talking about something else!

We vote to give an extra vote to one of the villagers. Because Lommy wasn't a wolf, our options today are Greenie, Nerwen, wilwa, sally, Boro, and Angu. Pick the one you find the most innocent-looking, or even better, the one I or Shasta tells you to!

That guy is seriously trying to butter me up with comments like this... I wonder if I should be worried!

Nerwen's vote makes me very uneasy. It looks like she's offing a fellow. I know it serves little purpose, but I'm going to have a look at her.

There are a couple of groups I'm interested in.

Angu vs. Lottie, sally & ed
Boro vs. phantom
sally vs. Angu, Boro, Lottie

I wouldn't put it past Angu to blatantly bus his fellows (Lommy has told me so many times about getting Fenrised by him) but obviously he can't be fellows with all the three. The same with sally...
At least one of Boro and phantom is evil.

VOTES (we should definitely keep track on them and adjust the extra vote based on who seems to be getting lynched, if possible)
Angu - Lottie
Green - sally
Nerwen - ed

NIGHT CHECK VOTES
Boro - Nessa
sally - today's lynch
phantom - Nessa?

People who are around later - I'd like either Lottie, ed or phantom to die.
