WW LXI: Grimm Tales

[Eomer of the Rohirrim]

As for my "throwaway" vote, I already explained that I couldn't decide between Boro and Mith. Izzy was only there because people reasoned like me and volunteered her name. They got in early so they can avoid accusations of being "throwaway". Thing is, I had wanted to vote for Shasta just about all day but held my vote to follow discussion. I still find it curious that no-one else voted for him (I think no-one else did?).

I couldn't make any conclusions on the three names offered to me so stuck with my own choice. You're welcome to see that as suspicious but I'll have to disagree.

And Nerwen, I really miss your odds! I was wanting to place some bets today.

How do these sound?

20-1: We lynch an Ordo.
24-1: There won't be a last minute voting flurry.
1-1: We lynch a Baddie.
9-1: Three people or more retract their votes.
5-1: Shasta puts on another "Phantom show".
24-1: These odds I'm giving are actually a coded message.

Sorry... got caught up in picking on the new kid.

Okay, how about

Everybody ends up voting for the same person (20-1).

We lynch another gifted/special role (2-1).

Shasta is Rumpelstiltskin (50-1).

Oh dear. Where are Nilp and Sally when you need a previous Days vote rundown.


YesterDay's voting.


Lari -> Boro. 458pm EST.

Voting early again because I won't have internet access again for awhile and am sleepy.

++Boro

I don't like the way he sounds as of right now.

Gaur -> Boro. 514pm EST.

In my opinion, there are two people who are acting quite strange, ever since the beginning. There are A Little Green and Boromir. I have one of those feelings in my gut about Boro, and he seems to be the most suspicious. Plus, I don't like his avatar. So, I will heed the teachings of Ocham's razor and choose Boromir.

++Boromir88

Kath -> Eomer. 645pm EST.

Hi sorry I seem to have run out of time completely this evening! I'm going to have to just vote. From the look at Lommy's posts from yesterDay the one person that popped out as potentially suspicious to me was:

++EOMER

I do find him suspicious so although I would have liked to go through the rest of the posts in more detail I am happy with this vote.

Mira -> Fea. 729pm EST.

++Fea

For the reason I cited earlier. Love you dear!

Fea - Nobody's said that Fea looks suspicious yet. That generally means that she's evil. It's always when no one thinks she's suspicious that she's really evil and ends up fooling us all right until the end.

Boro -> Mith. 812pm EST.

#267



Sally -> Eomer. 1105pm EST.

Eomer, Agan, and maybe Mith are still giving me bad vibes. Alas, I can't talk too long because the laptop battery's not going to last forever, but let's just say the tone of his posts seems rather wolf-ish to me. If I die for not having time to explain, so be it, but I will vote how I feel, and that is....

Gwath -> Boro. 145am EST.

On a second thought, there's no way I'll be up in time to vote, sooo I'll stick with yesterDay's vote, for the sake of consistency.

++Boromir88

Izzy -> Mith. 448am EST.

++Mith
For reasons stated in the previous post. I find the majority of her post content lacking. Banter. Spam.

Shasta -> Mith. 648am EST.

#299



Zil -> Kath. 753am EST.

I see some nice discussion has taken place while I slept.
My tentative good feeling about Boro doesn't seem to be shared much. I find that interesting, coming from those who know him better.
Mith.... now inferring the village won't have a chance without her? And Shasta gave his vote for her as well.
I'm inclined to do the same, but Kath....
The deadline will be here about the time I'm arriving at work, so I'm going with

Nerwen -> Izzy. 841am EST.

For the moment–

++Izzy.

Because of what I said earlier... which I admit is pretty thin grounds for voting someone... but I can't work out what's going on with Mith and Boro, and I don't see Eomer as particularly vote-worthy.

I may still retract and vote one of the favourites. Depends on what happens between now and DL

This post? #308



Agan -> Izzy. 845am EST.

++Izzy

I'd rather Boro or Mith didn't die today... But I'm here and can retract if that is for some reason needed.

Mith -> Izzy. 852am EST.


Phantom -> Izzy. 858am EST.

I'm way too tired for this.

++Izzy

Greenie -> Mith. 859am EST.

++ Mithalwen

Because I suspect her more than Boro or Izzy.

Eomer -> Shasta. 859am EST.

++SHASTA

Sorry, I just can't decide.

Caber -> Mith. 900am EST.

Well then. 5 of us left, and still no real answers. I'm in the same boat as Greenie here. None of these are a real choice for me.

++Mith

X'd since my last post, and left out Caber's vote.

[Mirandir]

Boro and sally, eh? I never would have guessed that. That being said, I'm going to go through their posts and look for hints. Then I'll start a suspicion list.

Oh, and Lari has food poisoning (we think) and won't be around.

Well, that settles it. If Lari's going to die in RL anyway we might as well kill her off in the game too.

You're so aweful, haha.

[the phantom]

Hee hee... I made sure and asked Mira how bad it was before I made my comment.

Where did that come from?

How come you're so certain about Izzy's innocence?

Anyway I'm going to sleep now. I'll pop in to vote in the morning but I doubt I'm going to post much. Sorry this is just a busy day.

And as for voting, I really feel like going for someone with few posts because there are too many of them and I don't want yet another quiet wolf victory.

Hrm, hoom; if I was paranoid I'd be screaming at you twisting my words, Agan.

When I say "Why would it matter if we killed Mith rather than any other innocent", I refer not to Izzy or any particular villager.

It is a general rule, I believe, that no innocent should cause too much trouble if seeming in danger of being lynched. The way Mithalwen was carrying on yesterday, when she didn't have too many votes and nothing was decided, suggested that it was really, really bad that she might die. This is only true if she's the Seer. Obviously she wasn't, so I don't see why there was such a drama yesterday.

I am talking about Mithalwen's behaviour, early on in the day; you took my words out of context, and applied them to the end of the day, when Izzy was suddenly a genuine lynching candidate.

[Eomer of the Rohirrim]

And really, all this explaining myself is putting me on a very public pedestal so I'd rather do something constructive, if that's ok.

[Eomer of the Rohirrim]

Ha! It's you, isn't it phantom? I know it. It's probably still worth lynching Shasta too, mind.

Call it seeing what you want to see, but why, oh why, would Boromir be killed? Trouble-maker? Likely to rouse suspicion upon his own self? Quite like Lommy actually.

You're taking down those who would stand up to you.

Crude, I know. There are more subtle ways to put forth one's suspicion, but oh well. Anyone else getting this feeling?

What does it matter who stands up to me if the Seer is still alive? We could have a village full of timid little mice, but if the Seer outs me I'm toast just the same. The Seer is approximately 274 times more dangerous than loud-mouths. Saying that I kill people based on whether they "stand up to me" is an insult to my common sense.

In my last game as a Wolf Shasta, Nerwen, Kath, and Durelin were alive the last day. The game before that I left Kuru and Ang alive till the end. The game before that I left the flippin Barrow-Wight alive till the end! No, no, Eomer... I don't mind loud independent folks at all. I am not frightened of people- I am frightened of the roles they have.
