WW CVII: Restless Nights in Sleepy Hollow - Game Thread

[Inziladun]

At the moment, innocents outnumber wolves 4-3.

The only way to keep things going to the next Day is if I vote for a wolf and all innocents follow me.

As I said, I could probably get in here in time to make a last minute vote before DL, but I would not have time to do more then give a cursory glance to posts made while I was asleep.

I have it narrowed down to two I think are the likeliest wolves, but it would be nice to have some other input if anyone else is around.

I'm the wolf! Pick me! Pick me! Pick m--arrghl.... *is pushed back into the world of the nonexistent*

If it were only that easy.

[Inziladun]

Ok, since it looks like everyone's lying low, I guess it's time to roll the dice.

++Sally

She voted for me two Days, both for what I consider dodgy reasons. The Day 2 vote was partly because of past games, by her admission.

This idea of hers that an AganSeer might on Day 1 have been buddying up to me having dreamt me as a wolf is a serious reach.

Best I can do. Here's hoping.

[Rikae]

Well, Inzil, if you're wrong, we're out of luck whatever I do. I hope you're right.

++Sally

[Kitanna]

With the seer dead the village set to work deciphering any seer hints McCaber might have left.

"Sally," Inzil said.

"Sally," Rikae and Greenie joined it.

Hands went up throughout the remaining villagers, all for Sally. Save for two.

"Rikae, though I can see none will agree with me now," Shasta said. "If Sally isn't a wolf we're toast."

"Dun!" Sally proclaimed, because if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

With Sally's lynch all but decided the village broke into more bickering about which wolf threw their packmate under the bus. The sun began it's march toward the horizon as name calling and arguing intensified. As the sun's last rays disappeared in the sky Sally decided to take advantage of their end of day arguing.

She dashed into the street to catch the first light of the moonrise. "You'll never take me alive!" she screamed. "This village is full of soft, meaty bodies and I shall feast tonight!" She laughed maniacally, waiting for her change to take place. "Fools! I'll show you -" Sally's rhetoric was cut short as Inzil rushed forward and pushed her into the fast approach mail coach. It was hours later than usual and Sally never even saw it barreling up the road.

The mailman reined in his horses, looking at the broken Sally under his wheels. She had been half changed into her wolf form when she was crushed. "Oh dear, I seem to have hit someone's pet," the mailman said. "That'll teach me to make my rounds at nightfall!"

"Don't worry," Nerwen said. "It was a rabid beast we were trying to put down."

Night 4 has begun

[Kitanna]

Inzil woke to the sound of footsteps outside his home. Armed with a club he carefully opened the door to look out. There was nothing but darkness. He closed and locked himself in once more.

Just as he settled down again, there was another noise.It sounded like gravel crunched under foot. He rose again with his club, ready to crack some skulls. He peeked out the window. Nothing.

He didn’t bother to go back to bed.He waited by the door, prepared to fling it open and beat the wolves to death next noise they made. The next noise around his house was a simple knock on the door. He flung it open, his club raised high, but there was no one outside.

There was, however, a jack o’ lantern on his front step. He brought his club down smashing the pumpkin over and over. Bits of orange flying every which way. So consumed was he with the need to destroy the pumpkin he never saw the ax fall.

~*~*~

The next morning the village found Inzil’s head on his front step. A candle has been lit and put into his mouth.

I come back after sleeping off a headache and find that this has somehow become a thing? I never thought she was buddying up to you. I said I could see the possibility. Those are two vastly different things. Presented with actual context as it should be, I think you'll find that what I said was....

Frankly, my first suspicions would not have been that she was the seer; she defended Dun to the extreme, sure, but the manner in which she did it does not cry seer to me. I think she was going from what little evidence she had and wanted to keep Dun around because, as she said, she wanted to play with him.

My logic is bolded, and in my opinion was clear to begin with. You're the one reaching, love.

You say I voted you based partly on past games, which as a joke is true, but I find you suspicious for actual reasons, some of which you are illustrating now. Suddenly finding my votes for you incredibly suspicious when only hours ago you found Nerwen and Shasta the best wolf candidates based on voting trends? Why change your position to me? Could it be that one (or both, which....unlikely) of them is your packmate? You said you wouldn't repeat your (frankly stunning) performance from a previous game, so perhaps toDay's actions are that restraint coming into play. (I'll note also that you didn't seem nearly as amused by the linked post as I think you would have as an innocent.) Your jumpiness, your panic, is what makes you suspicious, both in the wake of Agan's death and toDay.

I'm still pretty tired, but I'll get back to things in a bit.


x'd with Rikae. Oh, glorious.

[satansaloser2005]

Let's hope that one or both of Dun and Rikae are evil, or we are hosed.

Who else is around presently?

[Nerwen]

I am.

[Shastanis Althreduin]

Rikae - That first comment by me was partially banter, partially me feeling odd about you but having nothing really backing it up, and partially wolf-bait.

Regarding my vote for Mac and the reasoning behind it; I was feeling worst about Inzil and Mac at the time, so I wanted to vote one of them - and since the only reason I could see for the wolves killing Agan was that they thought she was the Seer and had a good opinion of Inzil, I chose to vote Mac.

[Shastanis Althreduin]

Inzil has one vote, Sally has two. I feel as though, were my shining star a wolf and Sally innocent, she'd have voted her already.

Anyone around - how likely is it that McCaber did in fact dream Inzil innocent?

[A Little Green]

I agree with Wilwa, we shouldn't spread out the votes. I still think Inzil was dreamed, so that leaves me with

++Sally

I haven't paid much attention to Sally this far other than her theory on Wilwa yesterDay which I thought looked a little off. Fingers crossed!


EDIT: x-ed with Shasta

Fairly likely, in my opinion. Here's what McCaber says about Inzil and me:

Note also that the Ranger was already dead at this point, so it makes double sense for the Seer to leave hints as to who he dreamed. Inzil would be a logical choice for a Night 2 dream anyway, given how much suspicion he was under on Day 1. So yeah. If Inzil is, in fact, a wolf, I suggest we collectively lynch McCaber even though he's already dead.

[Shastanis Althreduin]

This is making me nervous. I suppose the wolves could still be playing it safe, but the fact is, they could win with a sweep today. And now Sally has three votes - two of them for no real reason than "oh we shouldn't split votes". I mean, the reason itself is sound, but...
