Anyway, I doubt there's even a hunter...with two lovers dying in one blow, I don't think Di would see it necessary to put that role in. And along with role that Fea claims to have? If Di wanted a slaughterhouse, she would've put more lovers in the game.

Eomer's reaction to all this may help tell us whether he's a baddie or not (key word: baddie...not necessarily lover).

If you really have no clue, I recommend reviewing posts from previous Days in more depth. You've been pretty vague so far and it'd be more helpful for us to hear some stronger opinions than "I don't know."

EDIT: X-ed with Fea...okay, apparently I was wrong. But I swear in Volo's game the Guardian was the hunter.

Btw, you probably shouldn't have answered that.

Now I really look forward to hearing Eomer's reaction.

Why?

This is getting interesting!

And just for starters I will have to say I share Brinn's uneasiness with Fea's revelation of her role which kind of makes her immune to any kind of attack whatsoever (from the rival baddies and from us innocents).

I'll have to think of it as it seems there are arguments to be made on behalf of her revalment being true and against it. But as a gut-reaction I'd say she should be lynched by one volunteering innocent (no one else casts a vote) on one Day before it's too late...

But I'll look back to it. As well to a few other things...

Heh. Are you volunteering, dear?



Brinn's right; Groin's still online, yet he hasn't posted. Groin, have you left the game? Maybe he's cathing up on posts???? If nothing else, make sure to turn invisible. Oh, and post!


Alternatively, to Gollum. If you don't have a pretty concrete suspicion list go back over the posts and at least concentrate on one person. That way we at least get something from you other than "I don't know" and "I agree with so-and-so". yes, I know, I shouldn't talk, as I've been pretty lazy this game, but the more people who help the better. In short, Gollum, just go through and give us gut reactions to what you see, if nothing else.


Off to type some things up before work. Be here for about another 45 minutes if I'm needed.


EDIT: x'd with Gollum. And bolding, which I really suck at lately.

I even might be.

But I'm going to look at that revealment first.

Okay. It's possible Di might have thought of that kind of a special-indeed role and it would suit Fea pretty nicely if she was handpicked into the role.

Gwath then kindly provided us with this from Day2 (I'm too lazy to go back there and find it myself):

So it looks like she's hinting towards her role already there.

Also she said I'm innocent which is true indeed.

So all fine and dandy?

Well not all.

First of all I'm a bit suspicious about there being such a role that basically makes the player immune to any attacks if she's believed. And in a village where there is no clear knowledge about what kind of roles there are a great baddie might come up with a scheme like this. And that baddie would need to be also both playful and daring - which both apply to Fea just too well (also the "hinting" before revelation).

Secondly the timing of the revelation really raises my eyebrows. No one was actually suspecting Fea at the moment. So why the hurry to do that? She could have revealed a bit later if it would have looked like she was garnering some serious suspicion (and there was that mentioning of the role in her post in Day2 which should have convinced those wishing to lynch her anyway not to do it right away).

And sure it would have been a great way to go not telling the lovers about her capacities and taking both of them with her if they tried her during the Night? If she was a seer she could have just left a post saying it clearly enough for those reading her posts afterwards where she tells I'm innocent ie. not attention-grabbinlgy but using words which don't jump into one's eye when just looking through but reveal the intent if one reads them with knowledge of her role afterwards.

If she is a lover she would be afraid of the other (one of) lover-pair coming after her as the size of the village gets smaller. That would be a good reason for the timing. If we all believed her, the possible remaining lovers would leave her being afraid of trying her and we would not dare lynch her either. Perfect.
(And btw. all the lovers were alive when she revealed: McCaber and Greenie only got dead after that!)


I was already making pretty wild theories on this before I remembered Eomer has something to say in this. I'm waiting for him to appear before going with this any further...

EDIT: changed Gwath into McCaber, thank's to Sally...

You mean Cabbie?

Now this was the first post of toDay.

How come you were so keen to point out that you voted for a baddie the Day before? And what would it help if we knew afterwards which were your reasons for doing that now that both McCaber and his mistress Greenie are dead and gone and there's no information to be gained if they did not know the other pairs? Or were you just a bit too hastily trying to make yourself look good as you had "got it right as well"? Or did you know that?

There is something that is now freaking me, some of my own conspiracy-theories are taking over little by little in this nuthouse village...

As am I. But I am more uneasy with her exposure of Eomer's supposed role. Why should she do something like that? Eomer was not yet in any grave danger, and even if he was, it should be his choice to reveal his or not. With his alleged role revealed, the lovers are bound to kill him toNight. If Fea is telling the truth about Eomer, then not only is she taking his fate into her own hands, but she is endangering the safety of the village, as the Ranger is integral to our survival. I am extremely uncomfortable with this situation as it forces us, without evidence, to assume that Fea has our best interests in mind, and I have no reason to believe this. I am certainly not going to take her word for it.

[Brinniel]

Also, I can see that Groin is online this very minute...he forgot to turn invisible. What does that tell us? My guess is that he basically quit the game as an ordo without getting modfired...but if he does turn out to be lover and is not participating on purpose, I'm going to be very bitter. But I think he's a better sport than that, and I hope I'm right.

If you insist I'll check back up once more, but half the roles in the village, er, hotel, depend on whether Fea is really the seer.
