I don't think it matters. If a gifted is night guarded even if the gifted can't act, the gifted can't be killed. With the gifteds being hunters and rangers, it may be to their advantage to be guarded early and survive later on when they have better chance at using their gifts successfully. That's just my opinion though.

Rune

Post 1- Thinks he and Valier would make the best captains, but may not want to be, thinks this Day will be more random and confusing than usual, says he’ll be around a bit

(Well, that certainly takes some guts to say, but it’s a really obvious “I could be captain, but maybe I don’t want it…” ploy.)

Post 2- Says he and Valier are good captain candidates because they has good people skill and people can trust them.

(That is terrible reasoning: “You can trust me because you can trust me.”)

Post 3- Says he’s actually quite tipsy, and doesn’t like retractable votes

(Never post on werewolf while drunk.)

Post 4- changes to invisible, says he wants to be captain because he trusts himself, though he thinks Captain Fea would be interesting, goes to bed

(That at least makes more sense than his previous argument. Of course you’d want somebody you can trust in the captain position, and we can only trust ourselves for now)

Post 5- says Kath tends to forget Day 1, says he understands and agrees with Fea on retractable votes

(Overall, the most suspicious thing about him is his bid for captain. It seems really obvious, almost too obvious for a wolf ploy, but then, I’ve pulled obvious stunts as a wolf before and gotten away with it…)

Iniz

Post 1- Says he won’t be around late in Day 2, so it would be difficult for him to be captain then

(Ok, just answering a question)

Post 2- Clarifies that Day 1 is not a problem for him, but we should do what we think is best

(shrug)

Post 3- Questions Rune about his bid for captain

(It’s a fair question)

Post 4- Finds Hakon’s bid for captain suspicious, especially with end statement of “I’m innocent”

(A good point and one that I’d missed)

Post 5- Answers Rune’s question, doesn’t get the controversy around Boro and Fea

(The only thing that bothers me is that he isn’t around.)

So we must vote for a captain and 2 NG? then someone to lynch? wow that's alot of decisions.
I think my Captain vote for the day will be someone I'm interested in seeing what they do with the role, my choices atm are Roa, Legate, Boro or Rune, since all are fairly talkative and it would be interesting to see how they handle it. The NG's on the other hand are just people we think should be protected...hmmmm

[Roa_Aoife]

Rune is one of the least talkative people here.

Hey, okay, one more question then. Are we supposed to cast one vote for NG or two votes for NG? I.e. everybody votes for two people? I originally thought that we are supposed to vote just for one person, and simply the two who got the most will become NGs. Or how is it? Nogger?

Actually you have to - as said in the rules (everyone votes for one and the two gaining the most votes will be chosen).

Yep. I misunderstood you - I thought you were talking about less vocal players instead of players who don't turn up at all. Thanks for the clarification.

Hello, I'm finally here. Sorry it took me so long, Tuesdays are just very bad WW days for me. I'll be able to post more on the later Days, though.

I'm not sure if I understand this point right. Do you mean that a quiet wolf would be less dangerous if s/he was Captain than if s/he wasn't, or that s/he would be less dangerous as Captain than some other wolf? If so, why? However quiet a wolf, I doubt they would fail to use their Captain's power if given that - and if they do use it, I doubt they'd make it any better for the village.

As for your question in your very first post, I don't mind being voted NG. I have no idea why anyone would want me as Captain, and while I don't have any obstacles (except not being around at DL), I'm not sure I'd be comfortable with that much power.

Yes, I quite agree, as Day 1 bandwagons indeed tend to rise from little things and end up in disaster. I find it rather curious too, though, given that on a Day 1 little things are pretty much all we have. And while suspicion based on a little thing goes seldom right, it is also, on Day 1, the only thing that has so much as a chance of going right.

This, of course, has nothing to do with Boro and Fea's case. Personally I can see nothing alarming about either of them.

I'll post ideas about the Captain (and maybe NG:s) soon.

I might be inclined to vote Boro or Legate for Captain since they both seem innocentish and are clever and active. I've seen too little of Rune in this game to trust him enough to give him power, and Roa I'm hesitant to vote because she is by far the most active player around and I'd be afraid that if she was voted Captain too she'd have a bit more power than I'm comfortable with.

I have no idea about NGs or lynch yet.

Simple: he seems a bit different, but not necessarily wolfish. If he's innocent (and I've no reason as of now to think he isn't) he's as good a choice as any.

All right, here you go.

++NG Boro

I want to give Captain a bit more thought.
