I swear I realized at 1 o'clock in the morning after I had PMed Firefoot on Night 3 that I had made a very big mistake... And guess what? Something told me I should've said I wanted to kill Eomer....blast!

Given that it was not specifically prohibited, I would have thought it to be a risk worth taking in order to win the game.

Hehe. Re-reading that post, I suppose it did sound rather phantom-ish. Excuse me while I go and have an ego reduction.

I suppose it wasn't specifically prohibited but kind've an understood prohibited. Well, either way I obviously didn't want any multiple lynchings to get going. I suppose if someone would've seriously suggested it I probably would've 'reminded' them of a rule against it that really didn't techinically exist. But it probably would've been enough.

Dear big bro, you're wondering why I suddenly dropped my suspicion of you on my last Day? See my siggie.

I second the person (tgwbs?) who said that Eomer would never live beyond Day 1 after this game.

Now that the game has ended, this statement has me in stitches.

I'll third it. You guys let him live for the first time and what does he do? Go and kill you all.

Oh yeah... I forgot that I'd marked Kitanna so early. No wonder you guys killed me.

I never did answer Eomer why I so strongly suspected The Elf Warrior.

I think it boiled down to two good reasons and one bad one (sorry to have to admit):

1. He "protested too much", and since he was a rookie, that stood out to me. "I'm not a werewolf." "I'm innocent". Very many posts included that. It set my suspicion antennae going.

2. He defended Wilwarin at a time when both he and Wilwa were on my suspect list. Now, I could have surmised from it that these two might be shirriffs, which actually might have made more sense, but onto my third bad reason.

3. I didn't know Elf Warrior that well, whereas I'd gotten rather familiar with Eomer, Feanor, Guy, Oddwen, Morm, Wilwarin, and many others who have either played the game before or I'd had contact elsewhere on these boards. That was not the case with Elf Warrior, and I fell to a natural (and illogical) suspicion of unknowns. My bad. Lesson learned.

4. Oh. And he didn't play along with my astrology roleplay, so I was ticky-poohed with him on that score too. Make that TWO bad reasons.

Plus there was dancing spawn's observation that he was confident of Kitanna's wolvery yet he voted for Kath.
