Ungifted prey. I wouldn't admit to ungifted on the Living thread but I'll do it here just to set the innocent at ease.

But really I can't believe the Living haven't been debating who they want us to check. That ticks me off, because the only way we can transfer info is if they ask us a question about someone we actually checked! Someone needs to step up and take the lead and basically fill my shoes on the Living thread.

If the decision is left entirely to us... Frankly I don't know who I'd pick, but I do know I'd pick a lynch victim as opposed to a night kill. But a lot can happen these last two hours so maybe our decision will be made for us.

Well Boro is doing his best to hammer in the view we should not check your alignment. (Two times now being his major point in a post - which he doesn't make too many)

Votes now...

Lottie -> Morm
Nerwen -> Mac
Greenie -> Aganzir
Lalaith -> Aganzir2
Lommy -> Aganzir3
Legate -> Greenie
McCaber -> Aganzir4
Morm -> Mac

If Aganzir really is a seer she'd be a real gambler not calling it and just going to sleep instead.

In a normal game she might gamble, it's like her, but probably not with this special game with this big village relying on her (were she the seer that is) - and for a wolf a false-reveal this early into the game would be pretty bad so I'm not expecting her to do that if she is a wolf (a false reveal exposes one of the three to everyone - including the rival wolfgang).

Gah... I need to go to sleep but this is getting interesting.

Well, if his FBI thing was a hint (I am someone who does investigations aka Seer) then that could mean he dreamed me and thus revealing my identity would be rather useless to him.

Or, as I saw him say earlier, perhaps he truly does have so much faith in his ability to know my character, i.e. if Phantom is painting a target on himself then he's an Ordo. It's perfectly true. But that doesn't mean he wouldn't have checked me just in case. Meh, I'd better look at him a bit & see what else there is to see...

Okay, quickly- what are the scenarios for a possible false Lover reveal?

Would a WW do it to preserve herself? (probably, but any unseen ramifications?)

Would a Seer try to look like a Lover to preserve herself (and make it less likely the WWs would target her since Lover is lower priority than Seer)?

Geez, I really hope no Livings are reading this accidentally, ha ha! It's weird that I keep thinking that. Does that mean I have an inherent distrust of people, ha ha!

Basically, if she false reveals as a Lover is it up to us to lynch her, or is it up to the real Lovers to combat her, or is it up to us not to spoil her ploy, or do we just leave her to the Wolves?

Gah.

Hard to say... That would require some thinking I seem to be less and less capable of right now as I just try to figure what to do with our extra-vote.

Or if you two had planned this nice little trick on N1 together it would prove now very handy indeed.

My dilemma now of course is that I need to go and Aganzir's alignment is very much in doubt. If she reveals - then I think she is genuinely the seer - if she doesn't = she's highly probably a wolf. Or then she stays up to see if there is a counter-wagon to save her at the last minute (or to reveal at the last minute) - and in that case I'm not able to do the same (I really need to go to sleep).


Both Aganzir and Boro can't be seers though.

Indeed. But either way I'm innocent.

Boro suspects Agan, right? I mean- his most recent post seems pretty presumptuous (you've been caught, lassie, best give it up!). And he's asked us to check Nog three or so times.

So does that mean he's dreamed Agan and Nog, or that he dreamed A but not N and thus is truly curious about N (but not curious of TP because he already dreamed me). But no, I don't think he did dream me because he said "assume" I'm innocent (I think) and left open the Wolfish possibility. If he's the Seer he's playing things smart and keeping out of the line of fire. Definitely nothing definitive.

Which does make me wonder if a Seer would be nearly so bold as Agan has been.

Well it looks like Agan is leaving her fate in the village's hands... No reveal.
