Kitanna

Thankfully Kitanna has made only 10 posts, which makes this much easier considering how many other things I am attempting to do at the same time.

Her first post is rather long; but this is my highlight:
Quote:
This caught my eye when I first read it and then I see Nogrod also feels this comment needs to be watched. Nogrod also mentioned Loki's "wolfish" defense of himself ofone little comment made. I'm not really concerned about that it's his first game and Day one. It's not all that surprising he's a bit jumpy. But the comment above has me worried. What exactly is Loki trying to tell us? Trying to taunt us?
Kitanna came out day 1 strongly against Loki and for Nogrod. So did a lot of people, but I have to admit suspicion of those who didn't even entertain the notion that Loki might be telling the truth.

Her second post is a vote for Loki, saying that she chose between Nogrod, Loki, and Lommy because they led in the votes--followed by an apology for bandwaggoning.

Post 3: An agreement of Celuien and Diamond, then a defense (sort of) of Alcarillo and myself. Really not much of a defense: She doesn't think we're likely to be wolves, but admits we might be...

Gah...I've read the posts, but I don't have time right now to go through all of them. Sorry to those looking for me to do so.

Kitanna looks like a likely wolf candidate to me, and she has been very non-commital from the get-go. Sorry, that's as much as I have time for. Now a quick read-through and a vote.

I'm going to vote

++Valier

For the same reasons as yesterday and because I have no more time to look closer at the others.

Yes! So my argument is not in vain, because Gurthang's choices still give us better odds!

And, on a different note...

[rant]

I don't see how anything Gurthang has said takes the whole fun out of the game. He's the GW, and he's proposed a plan. It's not that he's not letting us do things. He's suggested that we follow the plan, but it's up to each of us to decide if we will follow that plan. If you choose not to, then you can try to get people to see things from your point of view, and try to explain why it doesn't make you evil!

It's all still part of the game. More importantly, it is a game!

In fact, Roa and Diamond's reactions to this, if anything, have made me less suspicious of them. I wouldn't think a baddie would respond in such a way...

I'm not getting this impression from our illustrious former Seer. But, we'll see how the rest of the Day goes.

Gurthang's plan isn't entirely foolproof, we still stand a damn good chance and lynching innocents with it by picking one of the names from his list, but we also have a good chance of getting more wolves (maybe even the EW).
I have doubts of this plan, but I think it is defiantely worth a try and the GW is really the best defense the village has.
So I understand the frustration (anger even) from Roa and Diamond.

That said I looked at the four names that Gurthang gave us and I think I'm the only one who doesn't see anything overly suspicious about Zali or Valier. It's probably because I have been paying more attention to other villagers. As for Eomer I still hold my suspicions from yesterday about him and I view Roa as an in between. So I'll just go over all of their posts and make a decision based on my findings.

Sting I'm really sorry, Sarah.

Ugh, I feel so light-headed.

Sorry if I misunderstood y'all. The impression I had is, you'd still vote for whomever you suspect, even ignoring the plan. From your posts I thought I saw a willingness to go over the Good Wizard's head.

If I was wrong, well . . . I'm really sorry for that. Well, I'll be dead enedwaith. So at least Gurthang's attack dog ( ) will be gone the next DAY.

So, depending on whether Gurthang's timezone situation can allow it, tomorrow we (or rather you):

a) Form a case against someone you suspect (well, for just one or for as many as you can? I'll let my scion/superior decide);
b) Decide which case can hold the most water;
c) Let Gurthang see your case (and subsequent discussion) and decide from that the list of death.

Plan okay with everyone?

I am also sorry

I said I would apologise if I was wrong about Loki and I was - so I do.
Sorry, Lynched Loki.
Now for some closer reading....

First off, I'll state the fairly obvious and say the Hunter should stay well hidden for now.
Secondly, I had formulated a plan myself that was more or less like the one Nilp just sketched out up there *points.* So I obviously agree with you, Nilp. This plan should also make our individualists happy, as well, we all a chance get to shape the village's destiny. I hope there'll be time for Gurth to draw up tomorrow's shortlist. If not, then maybe you could do it, Nilp, before nightfall.

Gurth, I *knew* there was something different about you. I thought it was something bad different. I thoroughly approve of your suggestion of looking at the list of who the EW picked to do what. It might tell us something. We should also bear in mind that the wolves - and presumably the EW as he would have approved the kills - wanted you dead last night. Why?
Did you say something, or was it a similar case to what I believe led to Cailin's death - that most thought her innocent? On the other hand, given the fact that most people trusted Cailin, why didn't the EW make her a wolf? So did Cailin say something, too? What players might the EW have made into wolves last night?

As for the lynch-list, I'm currently inclined to vote Valier. No offence, Valier, in fact quite the contrary. So much has been said about your wolf-spotting instincts, I suspect that the EW would rather have you inside the tent than out.

Um, not me! Why, I've timezones so horrible I could be awake for three-fourths of the day and still miss the action!

Maybe Firefoot, another proven innocent, could help. Yes, she definitely should, at least for toDAY, while we're sure she's innocent.

Vzv, where's Zali?

Sting Oh, and . . .

We should give thought to the silent players. What do we do about them?
