I'm not one to advocate lynching a "quiet" one, they would be really stupid wolves, to not be out here molding thoughts and manipulating. And even more stupid would be not to say anything when you're being accused.

I actually think lmp, Fea, and Formendacil are wolves. LMP and Fea because of the endless folderol exchanged between eachother. And Formendacil, because he wants to lynch somebody who's had a less than "moral" way of living. We all have our secrets, mind you that, and three people have the secret of being wolves.

It doesn't matter who's "noble" or who's sick and morally wrong. We aren't here to lynch people who have led an immoral way of living, but to lynch wolves. All the nobility does is trample on the rights of the hoi polloi, there's no use in them if you ask me.

So, lmp, fea, and Formendacil are wolves. Though anyone of you baffoons can be a wolf.

Yes, I take back my accusations on Estelyn. I can't help it her sewing looks so bad a werewolf dun it.

My dear Cailín, your busy schedule does not excuse you from reading carefully. Hsssss, I hiv'nae heard o' sic a heart. By the way, I'm loving this new country. Caught some fine fish this evening in that bonnie loch over yonder. Hmm...

I'll vote for:

++BOROMIR88

He sees that the village is in a mess, and tries to shift blame onto Fea and lmp for their 'back-and-forth' exchange. The posturing of someone who wants to draw wolvish parallels between two villagers whose very roles tie the twain together? Mayhaps.

What? It's the first day! I'm scraping for reasons; we all are.

And help ma hawks but ma heid is hammered. Good night, my loves!

You call my demand of a decent strategy to make up for implying that my honor is somewhat less than, endless? I fear that I must disagree. Though I clouded my request with role-playing teasing, it was given because I've noted that LMP posts frequently, but with little substance, choosing rather to take full advantage of his lecherous role, as opposed to trying to kill wolves. His posts take the attention away from our job... trying to survive. Though he provided us with an organizational tool, that is not any new information to several of us. My own notes chart who mentions whom, and in what light, who is accused, who is defended, who is voted for, what strategy came from whom, and random notes that I find interesting and worth rememberance for each player. All of your accusations, defenses, and random interesting comments have their own special places in my notes. Just because I'm a mere pretty tavern wench doesn't mean that I can't take some pretty darned deep notes.

My two suspects, for little reason besides tweaking my nerves, are B88 and LMP. LMP because of what I've said already, B88 for jumping to conclusions that don't match up.

I'm honored by your opinion of my capabilities, but you're wrong on me. Just because I'm fully capable of pulling off any depth bluff I feel like (most of which include no true work, simply alluding to one and letting your imagination do the work for me) doesn't mean I am. Although at this point, I'm curious about bait-and-switch bluffing, for future use, should the innocents survive (that'a'way we can go help out other plagued villages with our knowledge, you know).

In ANY case... the caps accentuating my sigh... I rather think that the Seer should ought to take a peek at LMP in his/her dreams tonight. Or me. Since my reputation (no, not that sort...) has preceded me, I foresee that I'll never quite be trusted without a Seer saying straight up and honestly to you:

"Fea is pure and innocent as the wind-driven snow, you should stop dropping her name as though it was a rabid ferret, and you should take into account everything she says because she is smarter than you."

I mean... the last part is elaboration, but if you're so confident in my wolvery, you can give me the benefit of the doubt (after all, logic favors me in that I've got a higher likelihood of being innocent than guilty) and have confidence in my skills as an innocent.

Also, Boromir, I'd like to see a potential strategy from you. Though you commented that the village would be severely stupid and deserve a very concisely chopped death should we kill you, you didn't bother saying what we should do instead. At this point, my vote is leaning toward you, Boromir, but I've got a bit of a tug toward LMP as well. You'll note that I don't presume to group pairings of wolves together nearly as often as you do. What are you on now? Three? First you accused Saucie, Lhuna, and Esty. Saucie?! Way to go. Talk about grasping to kill off a complete innocent. And then Lhuna, Esty, and TGWBS. You then immediately drop your suspicion of all three, with no explanation, for another pairing: LMP, Formen, and myself.

I think that the best thing to do is track 'em one wolf at a time. After all, if you try to follow too many roads at once, you'll miss an exit and get lost a half hour from your destination. Haven't y'all ever been on a road trip to know that? Once we pin one wolf, we can track the rest based on that. But throwing out pairings?

Boro, either you've adopted my well-known philosophy, or you're just trying too hard.

EDIT: cross posted with Firefoot, Boro (twice) and morm.

I think that one could well be a wolf. It would make sense for the wolves to get one vote early and see how it takes so they don't all have to wait till the end. I find you blanket statement far to encompassing to be true. I don't find you overly suspicious based on this but I simply don't agree with you.~mormegil
I accept this, I'm not stubborn. I can say with confidence though, that I'm not overly suspicious of any of them. But, I agree that there's a possibility, but as of right now I will say none of them are wolves.

Probably because you were cross-posting but I explained my strategy...

Actually, I think my accusations are a benefit to the village. Or atleast they have been to me, gets me to see how people respond and what not. So, whilst my accusations be totally random, and unlogical, there's a purpose to them, or atleast they serve me a purpose. I hope I don't need to say this in more layman terms.
What are our two main ways in finding a wolf?

First, the voting, with no voting off the bat this is no help to us. Though it becomes the biggest and best way to find a wolf.

So, what's the other way...talk, and that's what my accusations get do, get people to talk. All the more possibility of them slipping up, and it gets me to see their reaction to my accusations.

Then you accuse lmp of complete hoopla that's done nothing to help us find a wolf, you do the same thing?

And finally...

Firefoot has been trapped in the Barrow!
The other thing about not being suspicious of those who have voted early is that wolves can't help the timezone they live in. I can't say I'm very suspicious of any of those people either, but it isn't because they've voted early.

Well, I'm not exactly living in another timezone, but this is the last opportunity I have to vote today, due to the constraints of a social life (yes, you heard right, even a Gong Farmer has a social life).

I'm going to go with someone who is known to be quite smart, who is currently playing it dumb, and who has been keeping a relatively low profile. I'm not saying that he's a Werewolf, but he COULD be, and I have no better evidence to go by. And since this is only one vote, I shouldn't be doing any real damage...

What? Me, not the center of the universe? I don't believe it.

However... I still want to see you killed. I know... once I pick up a prejudice, it doesn't go away very easily. Which is probably why I plan to (currently) vote for LMP tonight.

The beauty of EST though, is that I can see any last minute shenanigans and vote accordingly. However, I don't suspect I'll see any.... but one can always hope, yeah?

It's not like our wolves (coughLMPcough) will just come out and say "I'm a wolf. You should lynch me before it's too late." After all, that's only happened once in history. Not many could pull it off. The one that did it... I forget who it was... must have been incredible. Keen, clever... audacious as all get out. Certainly not somebody to be taken lightly, or accused of tom-foolery without good reason.

You know... I think I'd like to see Encaitare get lynched. It would just make my day. And it's been a long day. Hours of travel, and they were re-dirting one of the roads, so the workers held up all of the horse-traffic on my way back to Erbar Telamarth... and I've still got a load of work to finish up, no thanks to my bosses... they just love for me to examine language, intelligence, and thinking/communication styles and be able to discuss my findings accordingly with my peers... No, m'loves, I'm not talking Tol-in-Gaurhoth... I've got psych homework. I'll check in in a couple hours when I finish up. If I don't see some significant changes, I'm eeny-meenying it up between B88 and LMP.
