TIG XCIV– WHere the Stars Are Strange (Game thread)

[Legate of Amon Lanc]

Well, I think it is clear whom I shall vote toDay in any case,

++Shasta

The tally this far, for the easy record:

Lottie => Legate
Inzil => Shasta
Sally => Legate (2)
Shasta => Legate (3)
Legate => Shasta (2)

Will be leaving the computer soon, but village, good luck to you still; and hope that in case you lynch me (although I would prefer not), you'd at least focus on the other targets with clearer mind. As we say in Khand, if only death can pay for life...

EDIT: x-ed with Nate

[Nerwen]

One hour to go. Chose well, my loyal subjects.

And Pitch: Looking back, you said YesterDay that you thought Legate's reaction on Steve's reveal made him in your eyes more trustworthy than not. Why did you not bring that up anymore today, when people started seriously doubting Legate?

I was getting to that.

I thought yesterDay that Legate could have had a good reason for his reaction to Eönwë's reveal (i.e. that Eönwë could conceivably be an Acolyte who gets a kill one Night, a dream the next etc.), but by his own words that hadn't occurred to him until I suggested it. Going back and rereading his posts, I also notice that his wording was too strong to express mere reasonable doubt:

OK, elsewhere in the same post he says "It is of course still possible he is not lying", but this sounds like an attempt to discredit Eönwë at any cost. There's also his insistence that Eönwë should reveal his dreamed ordo, which would only have given the wolves a second best choice of kill in lieu of the (most likely protected) seer. All this does not look good.

What could speak for him is that he began to revise his position in #248 before other people began to suspect him (up to this it had been between him, Nog and Zil). But maybe he just realized that going all out against a revealed seer would get him into trouble.

I'm genuinely puzzled by him, because honestly, the way he's played doesn't make much sense either for an innocent Legate or for a wolf-Legate, but all in all, he does look more bad than good.

[Eönwë]

Ok, I will even things up with:

++Shasta

I'm not sure any more what I think, but here we go.

edit: x-ed with Pom. Ok, not even then.

[Thinlómien]

Gah. Legate looks very suspicious in all other regards, except I can't see why a wolf-Legate wouldn't believe Eönwë's reveal. It seems suicidal.

edit: xed with 2 posts

[Thinlómien]

Okay let's do it:

++ Legate

Just for the record, I will finish and post my analysis toMorrow. This far I must say Pitch and Shasta look like unlikely packmates of Nog, more or less everyone else looks more or less likely.


edit: xed with a lot

[Pitchwife]

And for the record, I'm far from at ease about Shasta either, but don't suspect him that much yet that I'd be comfortable with a double lynch, even if we had the numbers to afford it. We can worry about him toMorrow.

For toDay,
++Legate


EDIT: x-ed from Eönwë to Greenie.

What do you think I've been doing all day? Nobody probably just bothers to read it. All my calls at the innocents, urges for them to put the blindfolds off their eyes. Predetermined that I am evil, therefore interpreting everything in the worst light, not even considering the other might be possible. But yeah, at least if I am lynched, I hope it will clear the air, to whatever my fate is... just don't let others off the hook (my post just two above or something).

I bet the WWs ARE happy right now, and if that's a subtle way of saying "you're making ME in particular happy", thank you, you're welcome...

Yes, also consider: why would I confess that I thought of that only after you posted it if I was a Wolf? It would've been far easier to say "yeah, Pitch, that's exactly what I had in mind" and be done with it. Nobody has been seriously considering how much of things I have done which would be illogical if I was a Wolf.

My bus going. Bye!

You should see me now. I'm pretty far from happy, believe me.
