WWLXII: Dead Men Do Tell Tales

[Boromir88]

And I don't know if Boromir is stupid or a cobbler but I've lost my trust in him after that performance yesterDay. *shrugs*

I don't really get why you guys had to lynch Kath of all people.~Lommy

Please do not call me stupid, this has not been the easiest of games to figure out what to do, but that doesn't warrant being called stupid. You could have just asked me why Kath, instead of assuming I'm a stupid innocent or cobbler.

To answer why Kath, first I'll say why not Mac? It's not that I didn't trust your reasons, it's for myself I am unsure. One minute I think he looks really sneaky, almost to the point where he's enjoying all of this, then next he sounds just as beaten and lost as everyone else. One minute I want to pull the latch, the next you realize Mac can be at the DL, so why was their no wolf-kill 2 nights ago? Plus, in the flurry of the cross-posting between you and Mac, Nogrod and I also had our flurry, and I had only read your 1st post against him, and his response.

There was a lot more after that, considering the bitter mood I was in, I didn't feel like reading it at the time, or I would be voting for Mac based on emotions. I felt it was much better to let me sit for a while, where I could read Mac's responses without having the automatic "evil" reaction because I wasn't in the best of moods.

You may think my vote for Kath was random, and it might look random because I didn't explain it well because I honestly just want to turn off the laptop and go to bed. I will tell you though, I voted for Kath with a much clearer reason, and clearer head, than I ever could have read Mac's.

That's because you assume I suspected Kath that she didn't show up for a day, and that's a faulty assumption. She was sick, I said I would allow her that day off (one she deserved), and would like to see more when she gets back. It was what she said that made me suspicious, and her vote for Gwath...Kath being here or not, made me no way more or less suspicious, what it did do was make sure I started watching what she was saying.

First lets start with the Gwath vote, because that was the biggest reason, and the only one I made, in my haste to want to retreat to quarters.

Well for me I think it's between Eonwe for sleeping under reindeer or whatever phrase we're using now, Mac because I think he's more likely a wolf than Boro, or Gwath not so much for a reason as there's been precious little to work with recently but because if he's going to be modfired then better only one person goes than two.

That was the post where she voted for Gwath...and basically it's Eonwe's being sneaky, could vote for him. Mac's more likely a wolf than Boro is...could vote for him. Or Gwath who will be modfired right? Her vote is as a I called it, safe and saying..."well we already did it with Mira, so it's ok if we lynch Gwath too for it."

Now let's go to what she said. It was suspicious that she was returning to a Day 2 discussion about the "word twisting." Granted she said she was doing it because she did not get a chance to answer (which was correct), but it's just strange that she would start her 1st post back (besides saying she's back). by defending herself from the "word twisting" debacle.

She does a post on Rikae's reveal but makes this totally wierd (not to mention wrong) statement:

Waaaait one second - we DON'T know Rikae was the Hunter? I just read the narration and from it and Brinn's little note could it maybe have been the other way round?

To which I pointed out Nogrod said he was an ordo. Maybe Kath didn't get/see that, but it's strange that after doing a post about Rikae revealing as the hunter, she doubts it because of Brinn's narration?

Then she sees/realizes Nogrod said he was innocent and recants, but still what's the reason by trying to doubt the claim in the first place based on a narration?

In her post (649) about yesterday's action...

Shasta is going to get himself lynched if he doesn't tone himself down pretty quick. It is frustrating defending yourself over the same thing again and again but 'taking a tone' rarely helps!

Now this is just alarm raising...why say Shasta is going to get himself lynched? She's actually been pretty defensive of Shasta throughout, for no real reasons that I can find.

Mith is going for Izzy - only thing is I don't recall seeing any explanation for suspicion there. I get why I'm suspicious of Izzy, and why others are, but I don't recall Mith mentioning any.

Maybe the same reasons as Kath and everyone else?

Then in her next post with thoughts about those living, she narrow ends it with stuff about Boro, Mac, Gwath, and Shasta.

I am always tempted if we do have a modfire going on to vote for that person in order that we don't end up with two people dying on one Day.

She continues to offer Gwath up as a possibility based on being mod-fired. Now she could be true here, I mean I am not going to suspect Kath for something she believes...but this was knew information about Kath I didn't know. And the way she went for Gwath, when she "presented" other options, just looked like an easy way to do what we did with Gwath.

I found another miracle (in that I agree with Mac about something else)...Kath said this about Mac and I:

I said before that the fighting between Boro and Mac was quite likely to mean one of them was a wolf. I don't know which. To be on the opposite side of the fence to Lommy, given that Rikae was suspicious of Mac before she was killed it would seem to put him in a better light. Yet Boro doesn't seem suspicious. I guess by elimination and by the fact that I do believe Mac might be a bold enough wolf to kill Rikae knowing he might go down with her I'd probably vote for him. That said, I am more inclined to vote Gwath because of the modfire.

This really didn't make any sense she declares one of us (as she always thought) was a wolf, based on our arguments...but then says Mac is less suspicious because Rikae was kill, says I don't look suspicious, but then goes back to suspecting Mac for the Rikae kill.

Add what she said about Shasta, combined with Shasta's reaction to Kath's Gwath vote, and well...it seemed like a better reason than going for Mac when my emotions were revved up.

I remember last ship we be on, I said I relied on Kath's summaries for information, because it's quick and easy to read through, and wondered if anyone double checked what she said, because if she's a wolf she can really cause a stir, with the summaries. She said, when she has tried to twist her summaries as a baddie, that is how she's caught.

Truthfully, Kath is one of the players I respect the most, because when she's in and here, she is always doing her best to contribute. That shows passion, and as much as I would like to say it for myself, you don't need 100's of posts to show passion. However, just because I respect her approach to WWing, doesn't mean I won't vote for her when I think she's a wolf. I saw the inconsistancies, I saw her explanation for the Gwath vote, and that's why I voted for her...not because she was sick, couldn't be here, and the came back.

Lommy, not only has my own trust in your innocence been shaken today. But I've lost a tad of respect, the trouble is I know you didn't mean anything rude by it...it could just be the gathering frustration, but that doesn't mean it doesn't hurt to be narrowed down as a "stupid innocent or cobbler." It's not so much that, but I would have thought our rapport would have at least warranted you to ask me what I was thinking, before saying I was either stupid or a cobbler.
