Are we seriously lynching Nog on Day 1?

And Boro- it's possible that when I tried that one, I wasn't completely just trying.

Vote people! One minute!

the phantom · 01-07-2009, 12:30 PM

Scar!!

the phantom · 01-07-2009, 12:31 PM

Okay, yes, Nog might be the Cobbler. But so might I. And on Day 1? Lynch? What a risk.

Aganzir · 01-07-2009, 12:31 PM

Eek is it a double lynch?

edit: I guess no, so many retractions

the phantom · 01-07-2009, 12:32 PM

Does every vote before Mith's official "stop" post count?

EDIT: x-post, I knew it was coming

Mithalwen · 01-07-2009, 12:32 PM

I will need to check numbers but it is Nogrod isn't it? Tell me on ADMIN thread ....

Ooh Sally I hope you havent made my life difficult..

satansaloser2005 · 01-07-2009, 12:31 PM

I'm fine with either one, frankly, and there's no way I want a double.

Ack! Rush!

--Noggie

++Menel

Did I make it???

EDIT: don't think so. But TGWBS did. That makes count at....oh, dear, Agan threw in a wrench....

satansaloser2005 · 01-07-2009, 12:34 PM

Mith: Heck. If. I. Know.

So I feel stupid now. I vote Nog to prevent a double lynch, then Menel catches back up so I switch to prevent it STILL, and my vote doesn't even get in on time.

Forget this. I'm going for food. I'll find out who died later.

EDIT: x'd with the moddess. Oooo, so I did make it in on time? Or no?

Mithalwen · 01-07-2009, 01:11 PM

This isn't easy but I am going to make the deadline stand regardless that I was a couple of minutes off. The fairest way is to go by the downs clock.

I like retractable votes since situations can change however I also believe that people should vote in good time and have the courage of their convictions. I don't particulary like double lynches but each player received a substantial number of votes. Therefore both Nogrod and Meneltamarcil will sadly leave us today.

Mithalwen · 01-07-2009, 02:00 PM

There had been much talk and even some singing during the first day of the contest and by the end of the day there were two main candidates for expulsion from the competition. Mithalwen was suprised - nos so much by one - inhabitants of Minas Morgul would have to work hard to make friends and some of the wraith's repertoire had been a little avante garde. The singer from the Old Forest had demonstrated skill in various genres and tongues. Perhaps he had represented too much of a threat.

The two singers moved to the front of the stage to give their farewell duet inspired by their shared devotion and love for the Vala Nienna, patron of those who grieve and swore friendship in place of their rivalry since they shared the same fate. Both had been genuine contestants.

Apologies to Bizet

MENELTARMACIL
C'était le soir!
Dans l'air par la brise attiédi,
Les chanteurs au front inondé de lumière,
Appelaient lentement les autres à choisir
NOGROD
Au fond du opéra
Paré de fleurs et d'or,
Une femme apparaît!
MENELTARMACIL
Une femme apparaît!
NOGROD
Je crois la voir encore!
MENELTARMACIL
Je crois la voir encore!

NOGROD
La foule prosternée
La regarde, etonnée,
Et murmure tous bas:
Voyez, c'est la déesse!
Qui dans l'ombre se dresse
Et vers nous tend les bras!

MENELTARMACIL
Son voile se soulève!
Ô vision! ô rêve!
La foule est à genoux!

MENELTARMACIL & NOGROD
Oui, c'est elle!
C'est la déesse
plus charmante et plus belle!
Oui, c'est elle!
C'est la déesse
qui descend parmi nous!
Son voile se soulève et la foule est à genoux!

NOGROD
Mais à travers la foule
Elle s'ouvre un passage!

MENELTARMACIL
Son long voile déjà
Nous cache son visage!

NOGROD
Mon regard, hélas!
La cherche en vain!

MENELTARMACIL
Elle fuit!

NOGROD
Elle fuit!
Mais dans mon âme soudain
Quelle étrange ardeur s'allume!

MENELTARMACIL
Quel feu nouveau me consume!

NOGROD
Ta main repousse ma main!

MENELTARMACIL
Ta main repousse ma main!

NOGROD
De nos cœurs l'amour s'empare
Et nous change en ennemis!

MENELTARMACIL
Non, que rien ne nous sépare!

NOGROD
Non, rien!

MENELTARMACIL
Que rien ne nous sépare!

NOGROD
Non, rien!

MENELTARMACIL
Jurons de rester amis!
NOGROD
Jurons de rester amis!
MENELTARMACIL
Jurons de rester amis!

MENELTARMACIL & NOGROD
Oh oui, jurons de rester amis!
Oui, c'est elle! C'est la déesse!
En ce jour qui vient nous unir,
Et fidèle à ma promesse,
Comme un frère je veux te chérir!
C'est elle, c'est la déesse
Qui vient en ce jour nous unir!
Oui, partageons le même sort,
Soyons unis jusqu'à la mort!

This is no flippant move so if Mith thinks about a mod-fire I would like her to wait for my explanation tomorrow.
