In scenario one, you are a Werewolf. You die, we cheer.

In scenario two, you are the Hunter. This means Cailin is obviously a werewolf. You kill her as you die, and we catch a werewolf anyway.

Either way, I believe we have a wolf in the bag today.

++Naria
Not as simple as Mr. TWBS puts it because
a) As it happened, Cailin could have meant something else... for the time being I will believe that her comment on shiny things was regarding her being a noble cleptomaniac... after all, the first days is when most roleplaying is done as there is nothing else to go on with.

b) The Ranger cannot protect anyone without at the very least, a nasty looking knife... what if she was hinting at another type of giftedness? wouldn't it be too convenient for the wolves for the Hunter to take down the Ranger so that that very same night they can take off the Seer? if that happened, it would be smooth sailing from there, barring any majour wolvish mistakes.

c) If you study your history books you will see that long time ago there was a village populated by werewolves which was infiltrated by brave heroes... yes, quite ironic that now the opposite has happened... yet that village also had a "Hunter" who decided to come forward because he was about to be lynched and did not have any good clues with regards to whom to take down with him. He thought that his revelation would stir conversation and it did, alas from the wrong person. The point here is that as Naria saw she was soon to be killed, tried to warn us because if she took down another innocent with her, it would be just playing into the hands of the wolves.

Really, I believe you smarter than that and I think you were trying to push us into making a BIG mistake. Even if you were not, we should try to save Naria, so I propose

I know, I'm double-posting but I just wanted to add that on point b) I actually thought she meant she was the ranger for some reason... probably because a hunter would hint at taking someone down, or so I think.

Saving our Hunter before it's too late *heh heh* does sound like a good idea. A very good idea, in fact.

*heh heh* I can just see people posting "Menel's a bandwagoning wolf" coming in... But I'm not a wolf! Seriously!

I feel terrible for leaving you in disarray again, but this will probably be my last post toDay.

Just to try to organize the chaos, this is what we now know:

Seer- Lhunardarwen
Hunter- Naria
Innocent- Gurthang
Innocent- Alcarillo

We all think Rune innocent, but we don't know. We do hardly doubt Farael, and yet we don't know. Some dead guy or gal thinks I'm innocent but you don't know.

We must catch a wolf toDay to make Lhuna's last dreams worthwile. Now the ones who proposed the plan of lynching me and Naria simultaneously (cause that would have been the result) would normally be my immediate suspects. However, it was Gurthang mostly, supported by Guy... and we know Gurthang is innocent, plus, he had a point (that rarely happens during these games and is therefore an important occasion).

I do not trust Kuru. I'd ask Lhuna to dream of him toNight, in the happy event that we do catch a wolf. Mostly because I very much wish to be able to believe him, and that is the only way. I hardly trust Amanaduial. She makes less sense each Day and was especially confusing this early morning. Malkatoj is extremely sneaky, and so is Meneltarmacil - someone we have hardly yet discussed or pointed at since Day 1. I'm not quite fond of the TGWBS is guilty theory, for though he has made some possible incriminating votes, it seems he's only accused because of his silence.

I have to leave now, so sorry. Choose wisely, dears.

Looks like I'm dying today... ah well. And, unfortunately, I have little time to analyse you lot before I retire.

When it's all over, look to Malkatoj and Menel. I especially dislike Malkatoj's silence since I accused her, and Menel just feels odd.

For the record, Cailin, Naria, Kuru, I believe to be innocent.

Rune and Farael and Azaelia and Amanduial are wild cards. Rune is the one I feel safest of, the others worry me a little.

Farewell.

Today is going very badly for the village. So far, all the 7 votes have been for people I am now confident are, in fact, innocent. Perhaps the best thing to do is to kill me off, as I know I am not gifted. Or maybe there can be some sort of effort against Malkatoj, who many people seem to suspect. I don't much mind, my life isn't that valuable.

Before I go, however, I have some final things to say.

Firstly, I am relocating Farael and Azaelia to "suspicious" status, along with Malkatoj and Menel.

A final note. I am certain that Naria will die this night. Please choose somebody sensible to kill - i.e. nobody I think is innocent!

I must agree that Kuru would be a good person to dream about.

I am glad that you chose to mention both Menel and Malkatoj, I have been suspecting them both since day one. Unfortunatley people stopped thinking about Menel when he pointet out the cobbler. (exept Luhna who belived it to be a wolfish plot to confuse us) Malkatoj made a wolfish vote on day 1 and have been sneeky this is enough for me to vote for her, yet another time.

I almost forgot to make a quick statement with regars to me asking the Seer to come forward. At the present time and unless we nail another wolf, the Seer is useless. That's probably what Lhuna thought when she came forward.

Now, what reminded me of this? oh yeah, dreaming about Kuruharan.... well, I think we should wait until we get a werewolf before asking about him, because if you ask half of the innocent people still alive they will say him innocent... while the other half will say him guilty. Problem is that innocents know nothing about who is guilty and who is not and so someone might think Kuruharan is innocent and set him somewhat free of suspicion while he might be a cunning wolf. I say this because from what I understand, you can't ask about the same person twice, so I'd wait a little. Although who knows? maybe we'll get a werewolf by the end of the day. I'm half-regretting having cast a quick vote against TGWBS but I think we should save Naria, and he had a vote and was looking suspicious. No, I stand by my choice and as I said before, I'll die for it if needed be.
