WWLVIII: Escape From Angband (or Behavioral Modification) - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Ooh and there we have the first real misunderstanding of the game! It does seem to be due to the language barrier again I think - there wouldn't have been half such a strong reaction if Nogrod hadn't used the word 'lie'. Lets just watch that a little.

Now I have to vote soon because I need to get to bed. I'm going to have a wander through the thread, see if I can think of anything.

My only comment right now is that I'm a little worried about a Day 1 vote for Gwath. I know his playing style is irritating but how many times has he been lynched early recently - if we're giving newbies a bit of leeway I think we should do the same for him.

I'm thinking something similar about Nog actually. This time especially it seems suspicion against him is based around that unfortunate comment.

Lynch Gwath toDay and I'll modfire the lot of you. Only applies to toDay, but I'm sick of the poor kid lynched at the start of the game. He lives through the Day. (And no, I really won't modfire the lot of you, but I'd appreciate it if you don't kill him on the first Day.) Manage to lynch Phantom and I'll send you all cookies.

That is all! *cheery face* Oh wait, I lied.

One of the people in our youth group just had a baby so tonight instead of having normal youth service we're going to go see her and her spawn. I shouldn't be gone past the deadline, but in case I am I'm trusting all of you to stop posting at 10pm and be good little minions until I get back. Just to let you know so you don't wonder why the Day's not being called.

K. THAT is all. Enjoy!

That's child's play. I'd rather have you lynch me.

Lariren Shadow · 03-18-2009, 07:03 PM

I don't really have a lot of time so here is just a plain list:
Guilty:
Shasta
Wilwa
Dury
Izzy
Nerwen
Rikae
Lommy
Kath
Nienna

Not Guilty:
Fea
Brinn
Mira
Nog
Mith
Legate
Gwath
Bubbles
Nilp

Therefore I am voting

I really don't understand what all this fuss in relation to Nog is about. He has some quite sensible points, and for the most part I think I've understood what he is saying. Though, it seems where any misinterpretation has come in - has been in possible ambiguous statements in relation to roles and what have you.

I think I get why he used LoTR as the "roles". Instead of just saying roles over again, and possibly getting it confused with assignments/obligations/posting requirements... etc. Then again, now he says he is a LoTR character? Well, it could be true... why not? We know we have wereducks... but what are the "names" of the other roles? Would they just be Seer, Ranger, Cobbler.. etc?

Meh. I've got to get back to peeling potatoes and eggs now.

X'd with Brinn, Lari and Nog.

Isabellkya · 03-18-2009, 07:09 PM

Ah. I see now. Makes sense.

Kath · 03-18-2009, 04:36 PM

Oh now having just seen sally's post I want to vote phantom! I said we should earlier and now I have mod approval.

And the promise of cookies!

Other than phantom I would be tempted to vote Brinn. Haven't seen a huge amount from her since all the randomness - could be due to RL stuff but not sure.

Legate of Amon Lanc · 03-18-2009, 04:58 PM

All right. I don't like Kath, but that's just the typical way she always unnerves me.
Fea may be normal, looks normal, more or less, this far not any bad, really.
Brinniel I am not sure of, there was something sinister in there.
wilwarin538 looks more or less sensible, as well as Shastanis Althreduin and to an extent, Durelin. Isabellkya too.
Nogrod is just Nogrod. Mith looked normal, too. Lommy as well, to the point that it makes me wonder a bit.

Mirandir is one of the crazies posting four pages about nothing, eh?
Nerwen is the craziest person possible, I won't be surprised if that was a Duck.
Rikae was weird. Mac was weird. Lari is somebody. Nienna as well. Gwathagor. Nilp. I like the last one. Where is he? Is he around? Had he posted? I didn't notice.
