Gil-Galad · 08-02-2007, 05:36 PM

this game is reaching its end and i must state that my wariness of posting has helped me do my seer duties, i told you i am trying out different tactics! but i must protest that captain's accusation of me being a wolf is so untrue and my dream of him focuses him being a wolf... if you kill me you will discover

Day four: Gil-Galad(Seer)

and that will surely give the remaining two wolves a kill... let us at least try to take one down, if i must i will go along with a double lynching of myself and Captain to end the debate of either of us being wolves! because surely i am dead by tomorrow

Oh no, you don't Gil. I don't know who or what you are, YET. But if you go along with a double lynch of yourself and Captain than the village is lost tonight.

Maybe you are the third wolf. maybe you knew some one would say no to a double lynch but it looks good that you're trying to save the village and of course wolf against wolf is a strategy.

Speaking of opportunistic......

If that were the case, Holby, then maybe the mods forgot to tell us all something? Besides that Gil is crazed, Gil is a wolf, and Gil is a crazed wolf.

His antics are catching my eye, though. I'm glad I have not yet voted. Although Holby-wolf is a dangerous foe, removing Gil is just as productive. When (not if, mind you) he is revealed as a wolf, my pronouncements against both you and he will be proven true, and you will then be lynched the next day we have. The village will win.

Holbytlass · 08-02-2007, 07:09 PM

The village will have a chance to win when you are lynched today.

I maintain that it is better to kill you, Holby, than I. As the rightful Seer, I see it as my duty to ensure this village's safety. You are only going against that by working in concert with fiends such as Saucepan Man and Gil-Galad.

Unlike you, I have already made my peace. I am ready to die, in the name of the village. As Seer I must do as those who came before me have done, sacrificing their lives to the Night stalked by wolves of malicious intent to ensure the village will live on.

CaptainofDespair · 08-02-2007, 08:30 PM

Well, seeing as it is growing late, I must be off for the evening.

I intend to either vote Holby or Gil-Galad in the morning. This depends on where Kath and Mith's votes fall, of course.

CaptainofDespair · 08-03-2007, 05:29 AM

Well, since the Day ends fairly soon, and that there have been no new posts since I retired, I feel I must vote now. I'd hate to miss the cut.

++Gil-Galad

It does not really matter which wolf we vote for, so long as we get them both. So I will side with taking down Gil today. Kath and Mith can lynch Holby tomorrow.

Kath · 08-02-2007, 05:46 PM

Gil throws suspicions on Holby at once, but am I right in thinking the Seer didn't have a dream first night, so even if he is the Seer this doesn't actually mean anything.

Day 2 he turns up and randomly votes for Boro, who isn't even playing. By this point he would have had a dream and had at least some information. Now, there's keeping a low profile and there's being completely unhelpful, if he is the Seer then this is the latter.

As to Day 3, he didn't even turn up.

Well that pretty much clears that up for me. Gil is not the Seer. He has just said though that he's trying new tactics, and while they might not fit the pattern of a Seer they might just fit that of a wolf. I'm wary of thinking Gil a wolf, as so often he turns out to be a misguided innocent, but it almost looks as though he's been taking lessons in how to stay alive by making himself the 'wild card'.

I think my decision on him will depend on what I think of this feud between Holby and CoD. I will try to look at that as soon as I can but it's coming up to 1 in the morning over here and I could really do with some sleep, so if I don't post again in the next hour or so don't expect to hear from me until the morning.

We have always been allowed to dream first night-it's a night, why wouldn't we. Only the wolve don't get a first night kill because the mods are killed .

Mithalwen · 08-03-2007, 06:39 AM

I am tempted to withold my vote becasue I sincerely think that both Gil and Captain are wolves and by doing so I will end this now. I did think they were the likeliest pairing before CofD's seer claim.

Captain's not hinting at Sauce at all does not wash. You don't hang on to that kind of information when you have no ranger, no hunter and have lost three ordos day 1. It would have been game over if we hadn't lynched him. If CofD had been a wolf kill there would have been no clue.

There is an interesting consensus between the two as to Kath and my innocence. Only BOTH of them could KNOW that if they were wolves.

Then there is Cof D's insistence we should lynch Holby first .... though gil is the definite wolf. Makes sense if they are both wolves - Holby lynched first ..game over ... Gil lynched - Cof D's credentials proved ..lynch holby next day Wolves still win...

Mithalwen · 08-03-2007, 06:41 AM

It has also been playing on my mind that the wolves have had a lot of time for thinking this game....
Anyone got a good argument why I should actually vote?

Holbytlass · 08-03-2007, 06:49 AM

I think you should vote (obviously CoD).
If you let a double lynch happen and Gil is not a wolf wolves win anyway.

If they both are and you let them go then you will be the village hero, but I'm not sure if both are wolves they would let them bot get this tangled at a critical moment.

Mithalwen · 08-03-2007, 06:52 AM

Well my dear ... the problem is ..that I am sure Gil is a wolf, so it is a question of if I trust you or CofD. If I go with you which is my instinct .... then this is the best option..and I don't care about being a hero...just really believe this will get us a win..now.
