Hey, morm... is that comment about "the guy who's eating his boot" a cryptic clue a la Fea?

I officially detest Mormegil, the one time I convince my self to look elswhere for wolves he turns out to be one and what more is I actually supportet my case with some of his arguments. You got me Morm, I capitulate.

This is the worst game ever. . .
The only positive thing so far is that Nogrod turned out to be wolf (or so it seems), it just shows that sometimes that feeling that someone plays differently is better than an actual case. (where you try to exclude such feelings)

Anyways I have gotten the flu, so if I could do my part in this days action soon it would be great. . .

Actually I think this is already the best game ever. I feel hugely privileged to have been able to watch things unwind as some of the biggest beasts in the Werewolf jungle slug it out. And the fat lady is only looking for her thorat spray...

I knew I shouldn't expect things to be that easy...you will find a way to make this go as unsmoothly as possible won't you?

But, I'm here for a little while and will just review the plan, see if there's any flaws.

By the way, can we do triple lynches in this village?

Here's why I ask.


Pretend I'm Fea. "But Sally, you're not pure evil and enjoy screwing with people's heads". Suspension of disbelief, children. Just pretend I'm Fea.

If I was Fea, why would I keep around a player who is as good as modfired? (Aka Gil, in case you didn't pick up on it) I wouldn't put it past her to have had Gil as the last wolf, knowing perhaps that he would either die early or just drop off the face of the earth. Now, since he's not playing really anymore, we're not going to bother with him, which means the last wolf just stays around and eventually the village just kills itself off. Like I said, pure evil.


With that in mind, is anyone else up for a triple lynch? Obviously we could put it off until toMorrow if you so desired, but why wait if we can do it toDay?


(Oh, and Phantom, that was the 'flaw' that I mentioned earlier. Heh told you the plan was fine. I just wanted to make additions)

I think someone has already noted that Fea's failure to modfire Gil may well point to something.

However, you're being awfully precipitous, Sally. We've only just started discussing the fourth wolf's identity...and you're ready to drag Gil to the scaffold?

Besides, look how complicated it was to plan a double-lynch. We don't even know if it'll come off. Have you thought about how much a triple-lynch increases the chance of something going wrong?

EDIT: x'd since Boro at #1309

Wasn't that actually Nogrod? *raises an eyebrow* Hmmm...

Yes, indeed, I do not disagree with that, my phrasing was just a bit unclear. I merely meant that it is possible that the real seer is among those who haven't managed to get online at all toDay yet and that's why I was a little doubtful of how quickly everybody took your word for it.

But anyway, it does not matter. I'm inclined to believe you really are the seer, and morm is a wolf anyway, and we have no problems with numbers yet, so we may very well double-lynch him and Nog toDay even if this was some evil ploy of yours.

So,

++phantom for rep

and

++no filibuster

Nah, I didn't. I only properly realised what you were probably doing sometime late-ish yesterDay...

That is a good question. Honestly, I do not know or remember, but I thought all the time that if one of you is the seer, it's Boro.

But Boro and tp - you still haven't answered my question. Why on earth get your known innocent killed, of all the possible people? I understand Boro needed to be protected from the Night-kill, but couldn't you have tried anyone else after the Gil-plan failed? Were you so desperate to pick someone who wasn't a wolf? (That's the only explanation that makes any sense to me...)

Hence why I suggested perhaps we try it toMorrow instead.


Mind you, you're in an awful hurry to make other people look bad, Nerwen my dear. I'm just trying to help. If it's just the four of us as reps it shouldn't even be a problem. Boro and Phantom could follow the original plan, I would vote for Gil, and unless you decide to do something to muck up the plan (which I'm thinking and hoping you won't, because if you do you'll have some splaining to do) it should work perfectly.


Gil's as good as dead anyway, except for the actual dying bit. For one thing (not to be rude) I don't think it's fair for him to survive the game if he doesn't even play. And besides, you KNOW Fea would do something like that. Yeah, someone might have mentioned it, but I've noticed it a few days ago and decided we might as well kill two birds (or in this case three I suppose) with one stone while we've got the resources to do it with. We could probably pull this off again toMorrow (if we're lucky) but beyond that it would be sketchy, what with Phantom probably being the next night's kill and then we're back to not being able to trust anyone.

Besides, it's a safe lynch (excuse my phrasing) because we know we won't kill the seer and even if Gil's an ordo it will not be a loss game-wise. No matter what he is, either we kill a wolf or we kill a player who is not helping. (And I'll take the risk of losing an ordo out of our numbers because with only one wolf left we should be fine). Besides, notice Nog at some point (I'll quote the post when I find it) was in favor of keeping Gil around to support our numbers. I wonder why it would be such a big deal to....oh, let's see....a wolf? Hmmmm....


See? Makes perfect sense, even outside my head. At least to me. Erm, wait.

However, I know it's only proper to bring this before the village and see what they say before I did anything like that.


So, village? What think you?



EDIT: x'd with Lommie Mommie

I can absolutely totally guarantee, sort of, that Gil is not the last wolf, although I guess I should check my sources on that one.

Now what the he....?

Have you just gone totally mad all of you? Still letting that dynamic duo mess with your heads?

You know they are still alive those two? Have you ever wondered at why that is? If they were innocents they would be around here no more, Night1 *bang*, Night2 *bang* and the end of their story. I mean some wolves can be sporty right, but being sporty doesn't mean suicidal. Ergo they must be the wolves themselves. QED.

So they were excepting to get the rope from us anyDay now but somehow the seer never came forwards. And those vermins hit the seemingly correct idea last Night as they plotted: any sensible seer with that big fishes bagged (both of them that is) would have come forwards instantly. But nothing happened, no one came forwards... Now what could it be? Gil-Galad it would be.

So why hasn't Fea modfed him? Well you just don't modfire seers now do you? Hello citizens! Wake up!

Happily the chosen representatives have one more Day to chew that info.
