I second Noggie's giggling. This is getting too interesting.

I believe for you it IS tomorrow. But I'll save you some anyway.

Sleep well!

Nog, please. I was putting myself into Izzy's position, and from that position it is "if". Don't be ridiculous.

That one had nothing to do with rangerness. Have you never been in the situation where voting someone would make logical sense, but it still doesn't feel right?

Probably bad conscience. I have actually flip-flopped on that again by now. She could maybe have been a wolf with Lommy.

If she's a wolf, which I have no doubt about, then her aggressiveness could come to bite her after my death. It only makes sense to pull it off if the village has no time to come and bite you. Therefore, the wolf numbers must be high - that together with possibly living cobblers would make this attack a very good tactic. The fact that the roles aren't revealed makes it even more so, a lot.

Yes, but you just said if Lommy's not a wolf, we will only be losing an innocent. And if you really are the Ranger, why the fear in lynching Kath? That's what I'm trying to point out, as an ordo I always fear mistakingly lynching a gifted, but as one of the gifteds I always feel more confident and aggressive in my voting, as I know I'm one of the gifteds. I'm just saying it looks like you were trying to strike up fear in lynching Kath, but if you're really the Ranger you should not be fearing the lynch would go "very bad."

Or we're not doing bad afterall and desperation is setting in? I'm waiting for Lommy's response to my question earlier, until I answer that more fully. Plus Gwath's mod-fire might play into the wolf strategy, if he is one...hmm

Ahh got it...I was thinking if you really believe we don't have many days left, and we miss-lynch today, what's the point in giving you another day and lynching you tomorrow? You must be pretty confident than you won't be night killed?

That's a good point. No self-saves from the Ranger this game. Nothing would
save the real one ToNight.

You really think I'd stay up more or less all night because of you if I was a mutineer? Like I said, I'm not that bad. Trust me I'd not be so picky, I'd go to sleep and not draw attention to myself like this. I'm not utterly stupid. A mutineer would be happy with a majority of the lynch choices. And I could have given up without losing my face, I could just have gone to sleep and told everybody they should lynch you meanwhile. I had the majority's trust. Do you think I would have started playing on it just to get a random innocent lynched? No, I'm not stupid.

That is quite probable. I was just pointing out there was a hole in your logic.

Not really. Since you could, in theory, be one, too, I merely ignored uninteresting cases.

In theory I could be anything. Anything except the hunter.

Who's still left?

Eonwe and Mith will not come back, and I don't expect Gwath to show up (not to mention that I wouldn't expect him to vote against his fellow). Apart from Gwath, the only outstanding vote is mine. Without retractions, we have: Mac 5, Lommy 2. I need two retractions out of you three, Boro, Nerwen, and Izzy. Pretty please?

If I'm just a probable Cobbler or Mutie to you; then my vote matters not.

A Mutineer is a Mutineer - no matter how you slice 'em up. (or what order they go in.)

You think you can pull the argument... lynch Lommy first and her death will PROVE your Rangership? Nut uh. Not possible. Unless she comes back for second deaths.


oh Shasta - I never said I believed Mac's claim as Ranger.


X'd with Nog, Mac, and Lommy.
Edit 2. An S went AWOL.

Nice to know.

Anybody, if you have something to ask me, please go forth. I will do my best to help. I'm not raging mad - on the opposite, you can try to talk to me. I alredy said I can switch my vote to Shasta if really needs be.

I know my attack on Mac must have seen weird and over the top, but don't think it was random. I wouldn't have gone so far, I wouldn't be awake now if I didn't have a good reason to suspect him.

Mac you forget the possibility that someone would think you a cobbler. It's not like the only possibility is that you're a mutineer but you are evil for sure.
