I'm not blaming anyone. I'm just alerting the citizens. And if my policies are to blame, well then deal with it. There are policies of opportunism and policies of dignity, policies of the lowest common denominator and policies of chivalry. You choose your side and manner with what you have in your hands, everyone, individually, and you carry that mark with you...

One for the money, two for the show, three for the truth and go wolf go.

Anyway, that's a bit under your stature Boro. Had you been killable you'd not grin around anymore. So thank your mistress for that (do I hear tp getting jealous?). And that's no blame, just a call for being less jubilant with being born with a silver-spoon in your mouth.

I'm somewhow torn about this village. In a way I'd like to see them win over you but on the other hand they seem not to earn it, looking at toDay.

Maybe Fea will balance this out by killing you all...

As Fea said, welcome to the advanced game of werewolf. There's no telling what happens or is. This is no elementary game as she underlined it (even if Boro tries to make you believe all is clear - but you'll see it). So everything is possible. Just try to orientate through this and all the conflicting messages... you'll have to decide for yourself what to do in this envirovenment.

Eenie-meenie-miny-moe
Lil' Green just hurt her foe
Wimpy-wampy-wumpy-ho
but teepee didn't let her go.
Who's to blame, who's to blame,
asked Boro and turned out lame.

Be-wop-po-loom-wob-bo-lap bam-boom
said Sally just evading her closing doom.
Ilya, Il'y-a? Que est-ce que c'est?
Vous voulez connaitre ce que j'ai fait?
Ka-boom, ka-boom, nanouk, nincompoop!
Lommy thought she was easily off the hoop,
while going the road to sweet Athay haroo, haroo,
Rune managed to make a blunder like a baboon.

Ha-ha,
Frank Zappa
and Jack & Jill went up the hill
with the sh....est group and mormegil
Go round, go down; Go round, go down.

Ha-Ha,
They're coming to take me away hahaa
he-hee, hihii, hohoo, huuhuu...
While Napoleon had nothing to do with that
but the Waterloo neared upon one Gwath...

Or was it a path pointing towards a Kath?
Bibedi-babedi-bou, who knows what's she at?
But I'm Happy to see those nice young men
in their clean white coats, ... uh... Nerwen?
"Liar, liar, see my denial" shouted Brinn, "I'm still in."
"They're coming to take me away, hoho, to the loony bin"

They're coming to take me a way hahaa...
To Antarctica, America, to the Gil-Galad star.

You thought it was joke and so you laughed,
you laughed when I had said that losing you would make me flip my lid,
right?

You know you laughed,
I heard you laugh,
you laughed, you laughed and laughed
and then you left,

but now you know I'm utterly mad.

And they're coming to take me away Ha Ha
They're coming to take me away ho ho he he ha ha

K, back in a bit. I laughed so hard at that post I need my bloody asthma meds. Thanks for that, kiddo.

While you may be evil, no one can deny the fact that you are certainly creative, Nogrod.

And yes, I just got back from Spamalot and it was wonderful.

*sings*

Finland, Finland, Finland....the country where I'd quite like to be...

*ahem*

Now back to work...

Ilya has just left Hobbiton.
Shield I'm not procrastinating even a little bit...

Nog: That was quite a piece there, and thanks for the vid because it was hard to deal with before the melody. But this ain't 'Nam. This is WW. There are rules.

Yay, Spamalot! I hear that it's still a great show.

Anyone around who's a Lost geek want to freak out with me over the new footage in the Fray video? I know I'm OTing it, but after the sports breakdown this morning and Nog's mocking me in French, I'm allowed.

EDIT: Aw man, deadline's approaching, nevermind about Lost.

My top three suspects: Ilya, Nerwen, and....erm....okay make that my top two suspects, because otherwise it's a tie between Brinn and Kath and Rune for a few things they've said toDay (or yesterDay, I'll have to look)



Bwahahahahaha! I shall have the last post, and I shall call it last post, and it shall be my last post. Hehe!

Deadline, people. Break it up, nothing to see here.

Oh, the lynches: Geil and Boro are dead for discussing football on my watch. Oh, and Nogrod. And not so much Boro.

They were, of course, the seer-leprechaun and the monkey-assassin.

Late is better than never?

This has been preempted and so you are spared some of the bad jokes I had planned and I may yet get to use the Nogrod death scene I had planned from my last mod game in the next (after Gollum's, auditions opening soon! Plug plug) but having decided that quasi-judicial processes had been done too well by Messrs Formendacil and Pan Man, I couldn't resist a little play with this.

Waiting for Borot

MORMEGIL:
Charming spot. Inspiring prospects. (He turns to Nogrod.) Let's go.

NOGROD:
We can't.

MORMEGIL:
Why not?

NOGROD:
We're waiting for Borot.


NOGROD:
There's no good harking back on that. Come on.

He draws him after him. As before.

MORMEGIL:
Wait!

NOGROD:
I'm cold!

MORMEGIL:
Wait! (He moves away from Nogrod.) I sometimes wonder if we wouldn't have been better off alone, each one for himself. (He crosses the stage and sits down on the mound.) We weren't made for the same road.

NOGROD:
(without anger). It's not certain.

MORMEGIL:
No, nothing is certain.

Nogrod slowly crosses the stage and sits down beside Mormegil.

NOGROD:
We can still part, if you think it would be better.

MORMEGIL:
It's not worthwhile now.

Silence.

NOGROD:
No, it's not worthwhile now.

Silence.

MORMEGIL:
Well, shall we go?

NOGROD:
Yes, let's go.

They do not move.

Dead:

Fea
Mith
Rikae
Diamond18 (ordo)
Legate (ordo)
McCaber (ordo)
Eönwë/Steve (ordo)
Aganzir (ordo)
Ka (wolf)
Shasta (ordo)
Mormegil (wolf)
Nogrod (wolf)

Alive:

Boromir88
Brinniel
Gil-Galad
Greenie
Gwathagor
Ilya
Lommy
Kath
Nerwen
Rune
Sally
the phantom

You suggest that we should have let you and morm live... even though you've both confessed?

Nogwolf's parting words to his young apprentice? Or is that what he wants us to think?
EDIT: X'd since my last post.

I accept it because it did occur within the specified parameters, but I'm not particularly happy about it.

That would keep people from playing the "I don't even know the rules so I can't be a Wolf" card.
My official statement on the matter has thus far been: all's fair in love and war.
