WWJ V: The Broken Souls - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Ka...I'm afraid I don't agree with your suspicions. Six hours away from the deadline, we still need to give time to those who are silent. With all but one of us now checking in, it is vastly more likely that all three wolves are already busily trying to subvert us. And on the first day, really our posts or no-posts give us almost nothing to go on. I must say, at this point I would be far more likely to suspect Anguirel for obscuring early thoughts in verse, or Valier for brandishing a "vhip" and generally relishing the prospect of pain.

But for this fact: Sleepy did tell us that there were hints in his part of the story. Anguirel makes an excellent point. SO...

I'm going to get busy and see if I can find any clues. I'd suggest you all do the same.

Hello all, just checking in. I'm going to review all this later in the afternoon and see if anything at all can be gleaned from what's been posted. My vote will most likely be a random one, though.

Great to see some life in this now quiet village. Jenny, I didn't think of that before, but I think you make a good point. If there's any base to lay the suspicions on it's hiding behind roles Valier's v and Anguirel's poems. I check the thread if there are any more such people.

Okay, all I could make out from Sleepy's posts were:

Quote:

Roa_Aoife
She sat there counting her money on a park bench by herself. They had called her stupid, they had laughed at her. She would show them who was better, it wouldn't be long now. His steps were quick and noiseless, she never saw him coming but once he stood there in front of her she just looked up in wonder, he smiled. Nobody had smiled at her when she was in one of those moods. "It shall be over soon." He said, his voice was soothing and Roa believed him, it would be over soon.

A vengeful wolf here? Or is this just a tragedy?

Quote:

"Rise and shine my dears. Its time for the games to begin."

This leads again to Roa, who's a babysitter.

For clearing: I'm not accusing Roa, since I have no basis, just speculating.

My previous post on roles might be nonsense, because on the other hand they just might be people who want to make the village livelier.

I'm glad that you don't suspect me, but I don't see a reason why would I be - or actually why was I before I posted anything - less suspicious than WQ. Is it just an instinct, as you say? But surely all instincts have some basis?

I question my own reasoning. Surely a herald at-arms is no poet? Or do we just have one lyrical soul around?

And Jenny, are you still around? Have you done your analysis? Or is anyone else here? 'Tis creepy when 'tis so quiet...

Sorry for flooding this thread up but as there's no one else active and I'm rereading the thread and finding new things all the time. And I'm under the impression that editing posts (except because of mentioning cross-posting or correcting typos) is not preferable in a WW game.

I second this! We live pretty much in different time zones. If for example the day's 8 first hours are the hours that someone's sleeping, I don't think it's unfair to accuse him/her for being silent at the beginning of the day. So on this basis I'm giving WQ some more time before accusing her of hiding. And if she doesn't appear even that doesn't mean she's a wolf. She might have problems in RL or then she's just not aware that the game has started. (I assure you, that can happen...
