Brinn, don't forget that last game you were evil.

the phantom · 02-21-2009, 11:48 PM

Does anyone have an updated voting tally?

I'll make one if you give me a minute.

So everything's open still with 8 votes to come...

Mnemosyne · 02-21-2009, 11:58 PM

All right, I don't feel terribly great about this, but

++Eonwe

Although I'm not terribly pleased to have Rikae in the ranks of people who voted for him...

Voting for him because he hasn't said much that's contributed to the game. A bit of Queen-spec (which I rather disagree with), banter, and then a random vote.

Nobody looks terribly suspicious. But while some people make me feel hot and cold, this one makes me feel decidedly lukewarm. I'd much rather lynch an unknown than someone I have some sort of a handle on. And I don't have a handle on anyone regarding Blackishness.

satansaloser2005 · 02-21-2009, 11:56 PM

Waiting for the vote tally just in case (like to avoid a tie if at all possible, since I believe it's random kill in those cases) but for now I'm thinking of voting Fea.

Her comments earlier were fairly normal for her, but at the same time....bad vibes and all. Hansy also bothers me greatly, and Nerwen (not that she's said much, but still) trips my radar as well, as in genuinely trips it, just because of how she reacted to being voted. The problem is that Nerwen doesn't look bad enough to lynch (because I know I always paint her evil and don't want to err just because I'm a silly girl) and I hate killing newbies on the first Day. If Hansy still bothers me toMorrow, though, I'll be double plussing him.

Checking the thread again and then voting. Oh, and apologies for not being around much toDay. I'll explain in another post.

satansaloser2005 · 02-21-2009, 11:56 PM

++Fea

Yes, I can see that, and that's why I'm not demanding that you change your vote or anything. Your reasoning is fine.

It just so happens that I think mine is good too and I don't want anyone else to vote for her. I want to save her if I can.

*sigh*

At least if my efforts are not successful, she is probably not gifted, and almost certainly not a Bishop dream. With her track record of getting lynched, I can't imagine the Bishop using his Night 1 dream on her. So from a strict probability perspective, we could make much worse lynches. I'm just thinking we could also do better.

the phantom · 02-21-2009, 11:58 PM

Ah, crap. I hate this part. I have nothing against Gwath, Steve, or Sally, but I feel like I need to vote for one of them to save Fea.

++Gwath

EDIT: x-post with several people

Looking at Sally's vote I must say I will join your sigh...

*looks at the last posts* Oh my!

Numbers, anyone?

EDIT: Blah... too late.

Yeah, but I had no part in the whole "save Fea" thing. In fact, I was one who continued to advocate her lynching after no one else did. So, what are you trying to imply? That if this was an exact repeat then Gwath (who seems to be our rising candidate of late) is also innocent and Nogrod's evil?

But of course I don't expect this to be an exact replica of what happened that Day 3. But it'd be funny if it was.

Kath already voted.

Mira - Kath and Hansy have already voted. xD

Edit. Replaced a comma with a dash.
X'd since Brin's #208

Brinniel · 02-21-2009, 11:59 PM

++Gwath

EDIT: X-ed with the last two

What she said.

K, so I went to pick up my new laptop cord today but there wasn't the usual free internet connection that I pick up when I'm at my house so I wasn't able to get on before I went to my youth group function. And I only returned from that....erm, 20 minutes ago? Ish? So yeah, sorry about that. *shrugs*

satansaloser2005 · 02-22-2009, 12:00 AM

I don't want who dies left up to chance. Anyone gonna break the tie?

EDIT: x'd with Shasta. Guess not.

the phantom · 02-22-2009, 12:00 AM

Yeah, so Gwath is probably innocent too. But I just don't feel that I've got as a good a read on him as with Fea.

And despite how much we disagree, I still think Nog is fine. And if he's right about Fea then I'll support whatever he does tomorrow.

EDIT: x-posted with bunches again

Nerwen · 02-22-2009, 12:02 AM

Well, guess I missed the vote. I'd like to point out, Shasta, that you cut us off before the deadline.

Well, it wasn't intentional. I clicked "Post" thirty seconds after my computer's clock went to 12:00 specifically to make sure I wasn't cutting anyone off. I guess the Downs' clock hadn't quite turned over yet, but I don't see any votes in the cross posts marked 12:00 am. I'd have counted them if there were.

Shastanis Althreduin · 02-21-2009, 11:59 PM

Voting is locked at 12:00 am, so... now.

Fea and Gwath to be put up for lynching, chosen by randomizer.
