WW XXXIX - Do Werebalrogs have wings?

[Kath]

Although I'm afraid we have been reading different threads this far as I can't quite recognize your outburst's relation to my posting in this game.

Actually Nog, Naria isn't the only one to have garnered such a reaction from your posts. I am glad that it's not just me, and it does begin to make me wonder if it is just your playing style rather than anything balrogish, but you have been clashing with people. Brinn said much the same thing yesterDay. I suppose it doesn't really matter, but I think it's good for you to see where people are coming from.

But now, who is dead and what can we learn from them?

Rikae ~ It is unfortunate that either no one remembered Nilp yesterDay or everyone was just waiting for the chance to leap on a self-presenting victim. It is also unfortunate that such a bandwagon popped up because I don't think we're going to get a lot out of the voting. The ones thats do look a but suspicious though are Noggie (surprise, surprise ) because he actually says 'I don't think she's a balrog' and then votes for her anyway. So far as I can see there was no reason to if he didn't think she was evil, the votes weren't really close enough for him to have been lynched if he didn't vote for her and you should never vote for someone you don't think has a chance of being evil. Nerwen did a similar thing too, seemingly taking offense at Rikae's playing style and lynching her 'for want of a better candidate', which I don't like. There were enough votes left to come that the bandwagon for Rikae could have been stopped in it's tracks, and it's votes that are based on the idea that 'oh well it's going to happen anyway, might as well help' that allow it to continue.

As for Volo, considering he was the Cobbler we have to take everything he said with a pinch of salt. As fo why he was killed, well he wasn't here much yesterDay, there is hardly a trail to find. Indeed, barely anyone is talking about him because there is just so little to base anything off.

Now, what was the other thing? Oh yes, Mith. She really is very jumpy. I want to see more from her toDay because yesterDay almost everything she posted was a reaction to something someone else said, and it was always quite defensive. Possibly just fear of a Day 1 lynching but really she was never in danger of that so it is a bit odd. But I do thank her for this comment:

I know to my cost that a WereKath is nigh on incapapble of putting a paw wrong.

If only you knew the hell I go through every time I'm a wolf, Mith, trying to make sure that's actually true! But I'm pleased I'm so fearsome when evil.

Not at all Kath dear. Show me where I do clash with people. What I'm doing is trying to find anything that could be considered suspicious and then tell it to you. That means that I have to suspect each and everyone of you and to try to sort out which of those suspicions are good ones and which are faulty. That's what we innocents need to do. We can't afford hunkering down and wishing people would not lynch / kill us by agreeing with everyone else. That's what the gifteds and baddies need to consider for in the end we basic miners need to be ready also to die as that ensures a moment more time for the gifteds.

So I'm all ready to ba a lynching candidate toDay and I'd like to add Kath to that list as well. So we'd need two other candidates still. Any ideas?


Oh, yes and this one... kind of makes me wonder even more what you are up to Kath:

Happily I got only one vote on the last minute but there were so many votes pending at that time that it was a vote with which I was securing my back. I'd have cursed a lot if I hadn't voted her and the last minute votes would have turned the tables. I've seen those last minute frenzies where everything turns upsidedown at the last minute.

And anyway. What's the point of that suspicion in the first place? Why would that action talk of being a baddie exactly? Beats me...

So you're once again laying nonexistant cases before our eyes. And that looks suspicious.

All right, folks. As I said before, this is the last time I am here today. I consider it very unfortunate, because it seems that now something may start to happen and toDay's voting may be important. And Mith and Lhuna did not appear toDay yet.

First one thing. I was re-thinking everything over and over and over again while writing this post, and there is no time to explain the thoughts that were going through my mind. The only thing I can say is that there were these names swirling through my mind: Macalaure, The Might, and even Sally.

Currently, my most probable votes are either Mac or The Might. Funnily enough, I believe that if I knew that Mac is innocent, I'd vote for Nogrod. I'd end with Mac rather than The Might. Mainly because:

1. Reasons in my post where I spoke about TM.
2. I don't want to accuse TM without actually giving him the opportunity to react. And since I'm not going to be here toDay anymore, I won't have the chance to read his response. Mac, on the other hand, already from his on initiative defended himself from certain points of view. In fact, that's not a good reasoning, however noble towards TM it may be. But I've been thinking several minutes about that, and I must choose.

What speaks for me against voting Mac? Well, mainly I would name the fact that it seems that there can be an easy bandwaggon created by it, and if Noggins is a balrog, the worse.

There is still the possibility that I may skip toDay's voting at all, or at least not vote now and wait if I miraculously don't have chance to appear at the end of the Day. But I really doubt it.

EDIT: x-ed with Nog. Really, really... what I said... I have the feeling that I'm going to miss something when I'm not going to be here for the DL...

[Legate of Amon Lanc]

I'm really torn. And there are about five minutes for me to decide whether to vote Mac now or hope that a miracle happens and I'll be able to check internet somewhere. I really must leave because there is a guest lecture by professor... whatever is his name... from Germany and no way I am coming late there.

Speak up, someone! Quick!
