Hey everyone. I'm going to try to be more involved toDay (as it's now the weekend and I'm not working as much). It's been difficult to form well-developed opinions of everyone because I haven't been around enough during the Day. I apologize.

I have to say, Rikae, you were awful quick there to jump on Legate and cast his remark regarding the Ranger in the most negative light possible. It seems highly unlikely that Legate could accomplish anything by intentionally trying to "mislead" people on such a basic point of DW rules. Anybody who is familiar with the rules would simply view the comment as a mistake and move on.

Crossed with all since Shastanis

I must agree with this; however, there's something wrong with Legate's last post as well. And now I'm really off to check Day1 voting... almost.


edit: xed with the flood after Gwath's post

Speaking of that, I don't see what she could base on it. What I said could demoralize people at most, but otherwise, I think it will have no value for determining what I am. Provocation or what?

Anyway, for the third time, and third should be the last, good night.

I agree with Rikae. I highly doubt Ka was killed based on something she said. She was probably killed because she was overlooked by most other players.

I have to agree too. Like I said earlier, I think Ka was a relatively safe kill for the wolves. However, there's nothing to be gained by not looking into her death, either, is there?

Well, I wanted to point out that it looked like Sally was preparing to frame somebody on shaky grounds. It raised my eyebrow, anyway.

I don't know what this might mean, but looking at the Day 1 record, Aganzir didn't have to vote Nerwen to save herself; Nerwen already had 5 votes to Aganzir's 4 before Aganzir voted. Is there another reason, maybe, that she voted Nerwen?

So if I understand correctly we have 4 wolves and 1 EW. How many good guys? A GW, seer? (I assume a new one was selected), no ranger and a hunter?

The problem with THE Ka and claiming her a safe kill is there are many safe kills...I would actually be one too based on my activity up to this point. Sorry about that.

I think it is important to pay attention to Rikae and Legate as they are both acting rather oddly. If any of them are acting 'normal' it would be Rikae as she is fairly rash and can be a bit abrasive at times...but Legate, that man must be very tired or something major is up with him.

Honestly, I've only skimmed most of the posts but amd caught up for this day's of posting. I am terribly sorry about this.

As I said yesterDAY, it may be that Agan feared that some of those who didn't vote yet (me, Lhuna, Kath, tp) might show up and vote for her. We can safely rule out tp (since he has thought of voting for Nerwen himself) and myself (since I haven't showed up yet then.) So I believe Lhuna and Kath were innocent on DAY 1.

Le problem est a smart EW (or one who reads my posts) might use this information to this advantage . . . one of them, at least, could have been turned . . .

I'm interested to see what happens in toDay's installment of the Roa/phantom feud. I haven't been able to get much out of their arguments, but I have noticed that while tp is easier to like because he's funny, he also seems to take the goodwill of the village for granted. I feel like his posts require us to take a lot of things on faith. No, I can't think of any examples, that's just the impression I get. I'll go read through yesterDay and see if I can find something a little more concrete than my feelings to back this up, though.

I suggest we DON'T focus on Roa or tp. No wizard in her right mind would scry either of them, anyway.
