Well we'll get this out of the way...

++Kuruharan

Two wolves on the first two days!

Yay! And I feel very good to have been vindicated in my feelings about Kuru.

Now comes the hard part. Boromir, excellent, excellent seering.

Boromir,

May I ask why you are suspicious of Firefoot? I would like to hear what you have to say before you are mauled. Alas, I wish we had a ranger but we have him not.

Sorry for the double post

Gil,

I would like to add my name to the list with Nogrod of frustration over your lack of interest and concern. I don't think you are guilty though I could be wrong so I'm not for lynching you in such a small village, but if we have more of a buffer I would be all for it. I really don't understand it...care to explain.

Morm, I don't think you're going to get a response from Gil, he said over on the admin thread that he's going to be gone till Sunday evening.

Yeah, and he doesn't usually stick around anyhow. And while I absolutely agree with you and Nogrod on his "tactics" his vote for Kuruharan as a random vote after Kuru'd gathered suspicion and before Boro revealed makes me think of him as 99.5% likely to be innocent. I suggest we play as though he isn't there unless he proves otherwise (which means real and substantial contributions)

I'm going to take this extra time we've gained to take a look over the village and see if combining the clues both Kuru and Fea have left give us a better idea of who to look at for our last wolf.

Fea:

#10

Random vote on Kuruharan. Says she loves him.

#13

Says retractable votes are a "form of recreation like mormy's drugs"

#16

Retracts Kuruharan vote. Agrees with Nogrod and advises we "mercilessly slaughter the quiet ones". Asks if she can kill Nogrod.

This post includes the infamous "Fea's a wolf" line.

#21

"Corrects" Nogrod's math. Here I think she's making fun of us. Nogrod gave a 1:4 chance, Fea suggested the correct ratio would be .5:2. Anyone other than me notice this seems odd? A good argument for Noggie's innocence?

#35

Is disappointed no one came back about the maths. No wonder. Now that I've noticed this I understand your suspicion of her better, Morm. First post that seemed substantive. Suggests lynching Nogrod, whether or not he's innocent. Pleads sleepiness and leaves (we suppose.

#49

Apologises for absense, promises analysis of entire village.

#61

Promised Analysis:
Zali: Innocent for now, but quiet. Suggests waiting.
Boro: suggests possible wolvishness, but again suggests waiting
Diamond: Mentions she's laying low, wonders if that's just because she's new. Suggests more participation.
Fea: Admits erratic posting. Claims busy schedule.
Firefoot: Says she accused Boro but voted Gil. Suggests leaving her around due to general helpfulness.
Gil: Mentions tradition of killing him off, and Gil's track record as an innocent
Jenny: Says she's unfamiliar with my style, but that if I'm a wolf I'd be a good one. Said I had quality posts. I'm not a wolf, in case anyone is wondering, and Fea was evil and fuzzy...but I feel kind of flattered nonetheless. Is that ok?
Kitanna: Claims she hasn't got Kitanna classed one way or another. Ok, the only way that could be true is if she wondered if Kitanna were the seer. So either she's trying to bluff us entirely, or she thought Kitanna is our seer. Any ideas? This one seems odd to me, especially after Fea's wolvishness was revealed.
Kuru: Suggests there are good reasons to bandwaggon Kuru. Well, no kidding. And once again she's making fun of us.
Morm: Wonders if he's a seer or just being abnormally aggressive.
Nogrod: Hopes Morm isn't Seeing anything she's not about Nogrod. Hoping the Seer doesn't look at Nogrod? Odd, from wolf-Fea. Reiterates that lynching the quiet is a good idea. (Could Nogrod be a wolf?)
Sleepy: Decides he's probably innocent.

Votes Mormegil.

#64

Cross-post notice.


That's all.

Just for public record, since it's still St. Patrick's Day here...let me just say that alcohol makes sensible analysis difficult. I'm going to post this and then start on Kuru. If someone else could look at who voted for Fea when, there may be more evidence there. Much to think on and the alcohol isn't helping. Maybe if I drink more I won't notice the problem.

Ok...here goes...I just noticed I left a paren open in the above post. Not going to go back and fix it, just do it mentally as you read.

Kuruharan:

#9:

Seems mostly silly. Makes a bad pun then suggests we go after jaywalkers.

#33:

Surely I missed one? Nope...Suggests Nogrod's quiet plan is good, but moot since everyone seems to have posted.

#52:

Says only there are a nice selection of posts and that all that Fea says is scary.

#58:

Casts a vote for Nogrod, but decides that Nogrod is likely innocent, and is uncomfortable with the vote. May I point out that at this point Nogrod had a definite bandwaggon going for (or against?) him? Safe vote, I'm thinking.

#75:

Changes vote for Jenny (Hi!). Says she (me!) has been running around crazy and stirring things up and causing confusion and changing her vote around a lot. Accused her of boisterousness. I don't think it was earned. I'll leave that up to others. The question is, WHY did he change his vote? That's what bugged me from the beginning.

#83:

Justified his vote for me based on post count and general impression of me as a rabble-rouser. (That's not his word, but it's a good one and I think conveys the general idea.)

#93:

Says he's glad Fea's dead, (which he might be after her attempted bandwaggon). Says he thinks I'm innocent, but that he's suspicious of Nogrod again.

#101:

Says he can't defend himself against anything Fea brought up. Claims Fea's capriciousness due to history between himself and Fea. Says he thought yesterDay that I was attempting to piggy-back on him and jump on the Nogrod Bandwaggon. And he thinks I'm petty. I guess my reputation among the wolves isn't decisive one way or another.

#107:

Says there's no substance to Boro's accusations. Well at that point there really wasn't much. Except for the seer bit he hadn't confessed yet.

Apologises for the piggy-back thing.

#123:

Starts with a long refutation of the I Love You thing of Fea's, then goes on to suggest we look at the quiet villagers. Both Fea and Kuru kept saying to look at the quieter villagers. Makes me wonder if our third wolf is also among the loud.

#125:

Responds to Nogrod saying that he is still looking at him closely, but that he is inclined to think him innocent because of his defense yesterDay. I thought at the beginning of toDay he said Nogrod looked more suspicious. I'm confused.

Has said nothing since Boro's revelation.


Okay, alcohol is helping less and less. Can one slur one's typing?

I know but I can still pose the question and have a modicum of hope that he may actually read through the posts.
