Hey peeps, sorry for missing yesterDay! I was off arranging/celebrating a bachelorette party and I thought I'd have a few moments to play too but I definitely didn't. I only learned I'm dead five minutes ago. But I'm almost home now so I'll catch up with everything sometime between that and going to sleep!

Well, that's an excellent reason for being missing. No drama. Glad you made it!

Sometimes the Dead just gotta have a little wander around in Purgatory before they can make it to wherever this place is. Glad you found it.

The residents were very busy indeed today!

They spent much time pondering questions regarding the nature of their existence and were keenly interested in the doings of the world of the Living. So much so as there were no puns this DAY.

They summoned their powers to make an impact!!!!

And...well, maybe they did in a way.

AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH...."I've never been so happy"....HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

*plop*

And at long last Boromir88 achieved the state of which he had so long dreamed and so long wished to attain!

Would it do anybody any good, though? That was the question.

I've been thinking about what the Dead are trying to tell us (apart from the rather depressing fact that Lottie was innocent, as well). They seem to like the votes for Eonwe and Legate.
Also, if we are all still here - are we innocents still in a small majority? (5 versus 3, in that case?)
Or can the game not end until there is a Duel?
For Eonwe? Where is she getting that?

All dressed up and nowhere to go. Nogrod could be visitor and another save or joint choice. And if visitor he could be evil if I understand rightly

"Who put that there?" didn't turn out to mean that the wolves failed to kill Mith, since she didn't end up being a Visitor, so I'm guessing it was a failed wolf conversion. I would guess that "Can you believe this?!" is probably the same thing - a failed wolf conversion - rather than a failed kill. If I were the GW, I'd be focusing on scrying the EW, rather than making Visitors.

But today, we know for certain that the EW is not at maximum wolfage. Either Boro was innocent, in which case we need to work out possible night scenarios - all of which seem less likely to me, given that they're based on so much bad luck for the EW.

Or Boro was guilty, which I find more likely, and which probably cuts our lynch candidates almost by half.

All right, time to focus more closely on my top lynch suspects.
So first "we've not come across a single wolf" then suddenly back to assuming Boro was a wolf? Well that's... convenient. Much worse than Zil's "slip" if you ask me...

Summary: feeling worse about Eomer and Shasta than I indicated earlier, and much better about Legate. Would prefer to lynch Nerwen no matter the cost.

But going now. Good night, and

By the by Boro hope for a ranger save because the count is now 5/4 so a night kill wins them the game but sure... enjoy the night with us

That's assuming that the EW has successfully created a wolf each time...which isn't impossible, but really bleak if true.

While one resident was absent the other two worked like a well-oiled machine.

They worked so efficiently that they ran out of things to do and turned their machine-like ingenuity to churning out puns...

There was nothing else to do but wait for the arrival of a new friend.

AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH...*gasp for breath*...HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
