You realize that if you want to get me lynched you might want to actually make an argument that holds water at some point. If you are an Ordo then you might want to reconsider your methods a bit. Making sense and being reasonable would be an excellent start.

Of course on the other hand I probably have you to thank for the fact that I am still alive. With your endless pursuit of me and my obvious annoyance the WWs are likely banking that eventually one of us will lynch the other. How does it feel to be used, Shasta?

I'm flying mostly by instinct at the moment, and I tend to think that anyone who tries to tell me what and how to think must be evil.

Well, then I must've been super darn evil last time when I was the Good Wizard.

I'd like to point something out to the rest of the village.

Shasta has made 42 posts. More than every one of you.

During those 42 posts he has not given ONE single opinion about ANY of you.

That has got to be the most suspicious thing I've ever seen. How can you have the second most posts of any living player and totally avoid giving opinions?

I don't have much to say right now as I'm falling asleep but I'm beginning to think that I should start voting against my own suspicions as they're clearly so utterly wrong. That said, Greenie had gone unnoticed by me and turned out to be evil, so I'm thinking of looking at who I haven't really paid much attention to and actually doing so. This new way of playing is fun but it's not actuall doing anyone any good so maybe I'll go back to the old way for a Day and try to be of some real help.

Well at least you admit to being controlling.

What Shasta thinks:

Phantom has graduated from Cobbler to Wolf.

Kath seems off to me... I'm not sure I'd lycanize her, but she could easily be a shoemaker.

Dury's pre-defense today strikes me as odd. I'd be more suspicious of her if I didn't think her battle with Nog yesterday looked very ordo vs. ordo.

Brinn seems fine to me, I don't really see anything wrong with her.

Nerwen: See Brinn. She's higher than Brinn on my suspicion list, but that is a pure gut feeling based on nothing at all. *shrug*

Lommy - Is she still alive? It took me a moment to remember to add her here... which means she's under my radar, at least.

And anyone else I haven't mentioned is VERY under my radar if I don't even remember that they're playing.

I suppose that would be Eonwe.

Hmm.

Ping, ping, ping.

That's my radar, folks. Gut feeling at the moment is that he's bad, but I have nothing to back it up at this point in time.

My list for lynching priority is probably, from top to bottom:

1. Phantom
2. Kath
3. Eonwe
4. Durelin
5. Lommy
6. Nerwen
7. Brinniel

So, it seems that pretty much everyone was surprised that Green was a Cobbler. I tend to agree.

She sure didn't seem like someone with a deathwish. But rather she was flying under the radar and I guess hoping she'd make it to the end for the glorious self-vote-clinch.

So, any theories on why the WWs bumped off Green? I'm going to look through her posts from yesterday here in a minute.

Shasta, how did Eönwë jump to third place in your lynch list? In your previous post you'd forgotten he was playing!

EDIT: X'd with tp.

Ah, so finally on the fifth day of this thing, after being criticized for it, Shasta has finally acknowledged that there are other villagers living here.

So it's his typical thing to go several days pretending that most everyone doesn't exist? That seems tough to swallow. I mean- when someone never talks to you, gives an opinion on you, or even mentions you, it's easy for them to stay off of your radar. It's way too fishy for my liking.

Yes, I do admit to it. I make suggestions as to how things should be played and I recommend certain courses of action. That's what I do. It's proven extremely useful to multiple villages in the past, so you'll just have to deal with it.

But in this village I can't help but think that I haven't been quite as useful due to me having to waste my time with you. I so very much would like to lynch you for it, and yet I can't help but think that is exactly what you want- to buy the WWs a free pass.

But of course if I let you off the hook assuming you're a Cobbler and you turn out to be a WW and win the game, my head will literally explode.

I'm reading over some of your posts and you are just hysterical.

You are just a riot, man. You accuse me of hogging the attention and focus, when it has been completely you and only you who has been totally fixated on me day after day and completely ignoring everyone else in the village.

And I love how you admit that you have absolutely nothing to back up your accusations.

No, no- I do not think Shasta is a friend. Not by a long shot.

Well, I don't see anyone else challenging you. At all. I love how you're criticizing me for focusing on you when as you've said I'm the only one who is. If you win this game as a wolf, my head will explode.
