So without modfire, lost!Boro remains dead weight?

I'd hate to leave him alive and realize he's a wolf later, but I lean toward the idea that if he was a wolf, he wouldn't bail on his pack.

Is that how it works? I thought Nogrod said he'd been toying with that idea and decided not to use it.

Nogrod?

He might if he knew he'd still count in their numbers– and sometimes one has to drop out.

EDIT:X'd with Sally.

Nope... If he will go he will go. I kind of thought of offering you the possibility of voting for whether to make him stay as a dead weight or not earlier toDay, but decided you have things enough to vote for... (see #323)

But if someone leaves and you don't decide to lynch him he goes away and is removed just like that.

The "no modfire" means that the mod will not kill anyone for not voting or posting etc... which I think is the normal use of the term.

I'm off to bed.

++ Valier

because I suspect her more than Loslote and it seems it's going to be between those two. In any case I wouldn't like to see Lottie go - it's funny actually, but the more people suspect her the more I become convinced she's actually ordo.

You seem to be offering chances for yet another scenario un-thought of by me...

So, if the Captaincy-vote ends up in draw not including the current Captain as part of the draw (he would continue as the C. if he were one involved in the draw as said earlier)...

Then it will be up to the old Captain to choose. That's a lot better than if I'd toss a coin for it, or make a boring "who got them first / last" -thing.

Okay, so let us make this clear (and so that we may have half a page of voting lists )

captain:
Fea – Roa
Brinn – Roa
Lommy – Roa (3)
Nienna – Legate
Sally – Nienna
Roa – Lommy
Nerwen – Nienna (2)
Greenie- Nienna (3)
Valier - Legate (2)

Not voted: Legate, Kath, Loslote, Gwath

guard:
Brinn – Kath
Lommy – Nerwen
Fea – Lommy
Sally – Kath (2)
Nienna – Nerwen (2)
Roa – Gwath
Nerwen - Sally
Valier - Lommy (2)
Greenie - Kath (3)

Not voted: Legate, Kath, Loslote, Gwath


lynch:
Brinn – Nerwen
Lommy – Valier
Roa – Legate
Nienna – Valier (2)
Nerwen - Loslote
Valier - Loslote (2)
Sally - Loslote (3)
Greenie - Valier (3)

Not voted: Legate, Fea, Kath, Loslote, Gwath

From the looks of it, I am probably going to guard Nerwen and I am thinking of voting for Nienna as a Captain. Because I am not really that comfortable with making Roa a Captain, and if people want to, I have nothing against making Ni one.

Nerwen:
Says the Captain role is a big risk and helps the wolves more than the innocents so need to watch those who ask for the role.
Confused by Fea’s getting rid of her retractions and Boro’s use of less than obscure quotes to ‘test’ people.
Then changes her mind in that maybe the wolves wouldn’t go for the captaincy.
Annoyed by Boro over the Fea and votes thing.
Questions Legate about his methods.
Votes Roa for captain, mentions that Rune would be a good choice but Roa has better leadership qualities. I’d say both of them are a little overbearing as leaders but hey, opinion. Protects me.
Defends Hakon against Roa.
Votes to lynch Boro for being over the top about Fea. Other choice would be Hakon but still doesn’t want to lynch him.
From Roa: Rune, Valier, Lottie and Boro seem to have something going on. Well we know she was right about two of them already.
Comes to the conclusion that maybe the wolves actually would go for it given Rune’s role so maybe they were pushing hard, but only to the extent that it wouldn’t take them too far out of their comfort zones. Basically, the wolves will act how they would act as innocents, only with a view to getting one of them in as captain.
Notes that Valier voted for Loslote and was the only person to. We now know Valier was the cobbler so this could go either way, but given that it’s Day 1 there’s no reason that she’d be any more right or wrong.
Bit worried about Brinn.
Points out Mac was actually not a no trace kill and wonders why he wasn’t used to frame people.
Has changed her mind about the captain role seemingly, as she now wants to see the captain get more power. However, the captain in question was Legate who ended up pretty widely considered innocent, and we know now was.
Defends Legate.
Mentions suspicion of Valier and Loslote for being Rune voters.
Is seeing Nienna and sally as innocent due to the kill and makes them safe.
Suspicious of Fea.
Votes Lottie as wants to open another option.
Asks Valier why she’s suspicious of Roa for being against Rune.

Ach running out of time. Will post this and have a think.
