Gollum the Great has just left Hobbiton.
May as well get this over with, though I've changed my mind.

++Lommy

I can't bring myself to trust her.

Argh, five pages to read. Must you really?

Lucky me, I have a chance to read because there's three hours to the deadline.

Hi guys.

Really, must you all be so talkative? I'm actually thankful for the silence because now I can post without x-ing with a gazillion people.

All Day I've been reading (or rather skimming) through the thread in between doing other things, but I didn't have time to get a word in edgewise. Even now I still have homework to do, but I'll procrastinate for the sake of WW

But geez, there's so many posts to review, I don't know if I'll be able to catch up on it all. And I always play so horribly on the first Day; I don't post much because I never know what to post...which is probably why wolves always kill me so early. But with all this talking, surely I've gotta have something to say.

Let me go back to reread and collect myself....

Have not voted yet: Groin, Nogrod, Brinn, Sally, Shasta, Gwath, McCaber

Okay, there are so many players in this game and there's simply not enough time to evaluate them all. The voting is spread out enough as it is, so for toDay I think I will focus most of my attention on those who have already been voted for..

Rikae

#25
-Suspects Mac because 1) he's overconfident 2) Di wouldn't make them both ordos 3) she swore to get him lynched on Day 1

-Also comments on Lommy, Legate, and Eonwe

Okay, we know that part of that suspicion is joking...but is reason 2 included? Because I don't think that's a good reason to suspect anyone.

#35
-All of post is a response to Mac's previous post.

#36
-States that her suspicion towards Mac isn't entirely joking.

#44
-States that Mac tends to be jumpy regardless of role.

-Says she's okay with lynching quiet ones.

-Doesn't like Sally's rhetorical questions, but doesn't think it particularly suspicious.

#46
-Questions Aganzir's comment theorising about who the baddies are.

#49
-Comments on Fea's statement about people with roles accidentally spilling unknown information.

#54
-Thinks Mac, Aganzir, and Lommy are baddies.

#189
-About votes for her: Thinks Eomer was "stirring the pot," Kitanna's jump on it looked nasty, and Aganzir's threat looked worse.

-Comment that slips are possible, but probably won't happen now that Fea mentioned it.

-Still suspects Mac, but not sure she'll vote him. Says people will probably find her suspicious for that.

On the comments about the votes against her: A pretty typical response for anyone who's been voted for. Though let me note that I'm pretty sure Kitanna's vote x-posted with Eomer's.

Overall thoughts:

Rikae does seem to focus on Mac a whole lot, but that's nothing new. But who can blame her when she knows his playing style best...

Anyways, while I find that first post about Mac a bit odd, there's nothing that looks terribly suspicious about her to me.

Groin

#27
-Banter about his promise to lynch Aganzir.

#31
-Compares Legate's behaviour to the previous game when he was a wolf.

I think Legate mentioned this, but remember he wasn't a wolf until his final Day.

#32
-States that Lommy's silliness is normal.

#43
-Says Legate is his usual self.

-Lommy is silly.

-Thinks Aganzir is trying to look like she's helpful, but her posts are full of petty arguments.

-No idea about Rikae.

Overall comments:

So far Groin hasn't said enough for me to form an opinion on him. He seems to be trying to add substance, but I would like to hear more.

Okay, I admit it, I took a timeout to watch a movie. I'm here now though, and have just read page 1.

*reads the rest, will form an opinion or two then*

I love this DL so much.

Lommy (has too many posts to analyse them all, so I'll only go over the highlights)

#28
-Thinks Aganzir looks rather innocent.

#33
-Comments that Mac seems a bit jumpy.

#42
-Doesn't think Mac's that suspicious.

-Call's Aganzir's comment about her speculation on gifteds jumpy.

#56
-Responds to Aganzir questioning her jumpy statement. Calls her defensive.

#81
-Analysis post- doesn't really have strong suspicions of anyone.

#88
-Says she's been a wolf so much lately, she's having trouble suspecting suspicious people. Needs to rewire her brain.

#134
-Doesn't like Mac's suspicions against her.

-Finds points against Groin and Kitanna interesting.

-Toys with the possibility of Mac and Aganzir as lovers.

#148
-Thinks of Fea and Mac and Legate and Aganzir as possible lovers.

-Considers voting for Eomer.

-Thinks Greenie looks innocent.

#166
-Considers voting Mac, Eomer, or Rikae.

#178
-votes Eomer for being a submarine

Overall comments:

Out of all her posts toDay, only two were lengthy. Most were one or two lines. Perhaps I'm just imagining things, but I remember her giving longer posts with more substance. I usual find her posts impossible to analyse because they have so much info. Lommy does a lot of flip-flopping; she can't seem to make up her mind about Mac or Aganzir. I don't really like her vote for Eomer...nothing looks too strange about his vote, at least not for Day One. Too often innocents have been lynched because they came, voted, and left.
