Right now I am casually considering Fea, Sally, and Nogrod as possibilities. I haven't finished reading the thread though, so these are all based on incomplete knowledge.

EDIT: Crossed with Nogrod...was that sarcasm, Nogrod? I can't tell...

I read it as "I'm very busy conversing with my fellow mates right now, but I will respond anyhow."

What exactly are you referring to Sally?

I suggest taking it at face value.

I was considering both Sally and Nogrod possible choices as well. Not Fea, though - I have no idea whatsoever about her and thus voting for her might do more harm than good. Something in Sally's last few posts has been rubbing me the wrong way. Dunno, it has to do with the sort of indefinitive manner of expressing things. Can't formulate that any better. Whereas Nog I still don't feel easy about, and it's not just because I disagree with him about nearly everything.

Another I was thinking about earlier was, in fact, Gwath, but his last few posts have seemed innocentish to me so I probably won't.


EDIT: x-ed with Izzy, Nog and Gwath

Well, here's my thing with Fea: her votes for Nogrod look to me like either an innocent who's pretty convinced she's got a wolf or a cobbler trying to draw out more bonus votes from the village.

Partly yes - or just having fun - but to be honest I basically don't believe you to be a wolf in this game. Well at least for now.

Aw, well, it's swell of you to say so.

Hahaha. Unfortunately, there is very very little that you can take at face value in this game we play called Werewolf. xD


I'm a bit concerned with Gwath's multitude of posts. Why not organize into one epic one?


X'd with Shasta.

I think I may get what is not being said by that Shasta. Just because someone may get irritated or frustrated with defending themselves; doesn't mean it makes you innocent. Perhaps he is using Rikae as an example of putting on a good show in defense of herself to get off the lynch block?

That your acting skills should not be the ultimate decider in clearing yourself, when you are suspected.

X'd with Shasta and Nog.

I know what he was saying, Izzy. I was just commenting on the fact that he makes the exact same comment every time.

Silmaril Another suggestion

I've got yet another family commitment tonight that is going to keep me away from the comp for awhile.

I will be back later. I'm not sure if I can vote...I'd just assumed that I could because it doesn't say anything about it in the rules.

I do have another suggestion...I agree with Nogrod that the village will be in desperate trouble if we don't get a wolf toDay...basically that we will probably have lost.

I wonder if the Seer and Finrod should announce themselves and tell what they know. That would (hopefully) cut down on the number of people that we'd have to worry about voting for. We have more inncent votes now than we are going to have later...

I don't know if this is a good idea, though. I thought I'd throw it out there for discusion.

Be back in a bit.

Because I don't have one epic, monolithic thought, I have a multitude of little ones which come and go as they please and dance around and sing little songs...but now I'm rambling.

Sorry about my broken English but I do not understand what you mean by that. The dictionary gives quite conflicting descriptions of what "swell" means.

Anyway, most of them don't suggest you were making a positive comment...

"Swell" in this context means "good", Nogrod. Whether or not he was being sarcastic is a question you'll have to ask him.

Here and reading.

Notes on first skim-through:

Greenie - I'll have to go back to my posts that day and look at who I suspected. I believe it was you, Form, and Nogrod, but I could be mistaken.

I'm leaning towards Brinn being innocent right now, and would rather not see her go. She definitely has the air of an ordo who's irritated at being constantly suspected by the same person. Sidenote - has anyone else noticed that every time someone gets irritated with having to defend themselves, Nogrod brings up Rikae as an excuse to attack them anyway? I think it's happened, like... every game I've ever played with him in it.

As for Kuru's idea about suspicion lists, I'll go back and formulate mine.

Edit: X'ed from Izzy on.
