Success tp success!!!

I feel confident in confessing now that this whole convoluted game is actually an elaborate ploy orchestrated by the phantom to get Aganzir's number.

I am actually all for it, if we can do it. Wow that would be a last-minute brilliance. (I just hope Shasta doesn't vote some nonsense.)

Indeed, Kuru. Phase one of the plan complete.

Phase two is much more complicated, believe it or not. But when one considers the importance of passing on superior genetics, no amount of planning and plotting is too much.

But no, I won't be texting you. When I absolutely must I talk on my phone (cutting off the conversation as quickly as possible). No texting. I don't like for people to feel they have an easy way of contacting me.

But I still want the number of course. Kuru nailed it.

Roger! Phase Two initiated!

I will begin assembly of the space ship's booster rockets and start an RPG thread about a lost dog in Bywater at once!!!!

So, Lommy's posted a viable plan now:

Do we have the numbers to safely go for Shasta now?

I would say, go ahead and vote. And if also e.g. phantom votes, I will follow. Deal?

I fear I don't want to know anything more.

But does this mean I should try to cast my vote for Shasta? And then trust our esteemed mostly-non-Europeans to do something about it? And whoever isn't going to comply shall be considered enemy of the state henceforth?

I want to vote for Shasta but who's to say he doesn't vote for somebody we don't want to? What if we accidentally cause a tie? It's difficult because nobody else has voted.

Of all the people on the Living thread, I am not that worried about Shasta. I think we just have to do the shot in the dark. After all, with Nerwen it is kind of the same possibility.

Then again Shasta is here now and looks like he may be voting for Nilp. I wouldn't mind.

Kuru can I authorise somebody to vote on my behalf if I want to go to sleep?

That's fine by me. Let's do it. Rikae? Phantom? (Or whoever is around apart from you, too?) Are you up for voting shasta?

Greenie voted for Nerwen
Nog voted for Nerwen

Left to vote:
the phantom (Nerwen-"dreamed"? innocent)
Rune Son of Bjarne
Aganzir (hunter)
Macalaure (wolf)
Rikae
Legate of Amon Lanc (known innocent)
Loslote (wolf)
Firefoot (one of Nerwen's innocents)
Lalaith

So, four presumably innocent, two wolves, one unknown, and me.

I'd say it's safe, then:

++Shasta

Gah! Once again I can't count!

Two unknown (Rune and Lalaith). But if the rest of us vote Shasta, we don't need to worry about them anyway.

I would have your babies if you made this much effort plotting it.

Anyhow. I'm going to PM my number to you and you will text me, no matter how little you like it, if you need me to vote.

Alternatively I could just vote for Shasta again. Boy he must feel popular.
