WW: LXXVI - At Moria: EXTRA Edition

[Shastanis Althreduin]

Plot will be up tomorrow, tomorrow morning is my second day at work (I work in the mornings, won't affect the game at all, ).

Suffice it to say you're all falling down Moria. You know, bottomless mines and all that. Enjoy freefall, but beware the wolves falling with you, hmm? Of course, you're sleepfalling, seeing as how it's Night 1, but you know. Seer can dream, Wolves can PM among each other, Hunter can send me a hunt if he/she likes, but obviously there won't be a kill.

Happy hunting!

[Blind Guardian]

Yeah!! I can't wait till tomorrow! Don't you think since this is Moria they should be called Orcs instead of wolfs? It would make sense. Any ways, let the slaying (and free falling!) begin!!




Am I the only person online that wants to do this?!?

[Shastanis Althreduin]

Blind, you posted during a night phase. Silly.

Night 1 ends. Day 1 begins and will end at midnight.

Something I forgot to mention - in case of a tie, the last person to receive the number of votes will die.

You may now post. Plot tomorrow. Just know that I cracked my head on an overhang while falling with the rest of you and am now dead.

[Loslote]

Hehe...

If it doesn't have a tail it's not a werewolf
Even if it has a wolfy kind of feel
If it doesn't have a tail it's not a werewolf
If it doesn't have a tail it's not a werewolf but an ord!

[Celuien]

I don't think I like falling at all! It's bad on the nerves, and not at all like gliding down over Mulholland...

Why couldn't we go over the mountain rather than into Moria?

[The Elf-warrior]

I doubt any of us enjoy falling. We have a bigger problem. Werewolves! Hideous creatures of the stygian night.

[Blind Guardian]

Acully I edited that around 4 in the afternoon.

[Blind Guardian]

We can always try to push each other off!

[Loslote]

Mira, Boro, and Wilwa posted first second, and third, so one of them must be guilty. Oh, wait...

Morsul is guilty just on principle.

Zil I can usually read pretty well, but so far I have nothing - thus, guilty.

Blind posted early. Clearly an example of a newbie wolf!

Sally had a birthday, and thus must be evil.

Cabbie decided to come back, probably because he knew he'd be a wolf!

Elfie has a much-debated nick; he must be using this to his advantage in appearing innocent and thus must be guilty!

Nienna's name can be shortened to Ni, which is very Monty-Python-esque, thus...Burn the Witch!

Nerwen's name means (unless I'm way confused) man-maiden, which is similar to man-wolf, which is evil!

Izzy is being a real submarine this game. Has she even posted at all?

Glirdy has an avie that can easily be interperted as evil. Coincidence???

Tum has come back from a long absense, probably at Sally's request, and thus probably to be Sally's packmate!

Celuin, last I saw, has a frog avie. This is clearly referencing Wilwa's Grimm Tales game, which means that she and Wilwa must be packmates!

Paranoia's name is similar to Paranormal, which in turn references werewolves. Thus, evil!!

~~~

Okay. A wee bit more serious now (but still not all that serious).

I am not going to vote for*:

BG or Para as they are new.

Cabbie, Celuin, or Tum as I have never played with them before.

Rikae as I'm pretty sure we can assume she's not evil.

*barring Seer reveal

Now that that's out of the way...I really, really hope I x with someone.

EDIT: Ooh, yay, xed with a Celuin and an Elfie and a BG!

[Blind Guardian]

You forgot Elf-Warior. The name could be a hoax, must be evil!

[Loslote]

No, I call him Elfie. He's also known as Tew, Tewie, Ewie (but not often ) and many others that I do not at this moment recall.

[Blind Guardian]

Oh, OK. Now I feel stupid

[Loslote]

Oh, don't feel stupid! It's hard enough for those of us who've been here for tons of games to figure out nicks sometimes.

[Blind Guardian]

Well you could have called him/her (another problem I have!) E-W or something lol

[Loslote]

Ah, but see, that spells "ew" and we like Elfie.

[Blind Guardian]

OK fine Elfie! Didn't you say there was dispute over the name

[Loslote]

That I did...and you don't have to call him that, I just do.

[Blind Guardian]

All well! Is there anyone else on or is it just us? Those 7 members whos names are not shown!

[Celuien]

Oh good! At least I'm not falling alone now. I don't like heights and I'm scared of the dark in this accursed place!

Glirdy is always evil. Even when he's not.

I wish I had butterfly wings right now to fly around in here... but I'll settle for grabbing the walls with my sticky frog finger tips... maybe that makes me a Gollum...

EDIT: crossed with the nickname discussion. Hi there!

Unless they post, there's really no way to know. We can, however, do the Post Dance and try to get posts! *starts doing the Post Dance*

...what?

EDIT: Xed! Yay! My post dance worked!

...seriously, what?

[Blind Guardian]

Hello welcome! Please join us!

And you call him/her Xed?

[Celuien]

Ooh! Xed. I like. Henceforth, that shall be my nickname, and it shall be mine.

[Loslote]

Haha! No, no, that's just how you mark that you posted before you saw their post - a cross-post. She's Celuin (I don't know your nick, sorry).

EDIT: Oh, that's your nick! Okay. Me likie.

[The Elf-warrior]

In a sense, my name is a hoax. I am not an Elf, just a stout hobbit. Now you've got a rock solid case to lynch me without further talk or rational thought. Oh, all those people who haven't posted must be werewolves. Oh noes, we're all doomed! AGGGGGGGHHHHHH!

That previous paragraph demonstrates that I am a truly sinister individual. Are you too blind to see the way I explain away something truly sinister about myself? Also, note the way he then diverts attention from himself by making a joking accusation about all the people who haven't posted yet. What we need is a strong leader with manly chest hair. On second thought, we need four strong leaders.

[Blind Guardian]

OK, Xed.

"Hello I am Aragorn, son of Arathorn, and I was on the Bridge of Khazadum when it fell. Dwarfs shall forever hate me" I got up from the computer and that came to me. OK anyways, should we guess who we think is the wolves, etc?

[Blind Guardian]

Hey, I'm a vegetarian. I can't be a wolf!

We almost don't even need to:

for Elfie has already revealed!

++Elfie

[Blind Guardian]

Then I was right, Elfie is evil! This is just a guess right? The mod has to make the wolves kill him/her if we are right, right?

[Loslote]

Erm, I was joking. You have to either bold or highlight the vote to make it count (which is it this game?) and then we as a village kill the lucky () chosen one.

[Blind Guardian]

OK then Elfie!

This would be a pain if I was on my iPod still

And the village means everyone signed up? So if there are only three online and the lucky person dies we have to wait for everyone?

[Loslote]

Was...that supposed to be a vote? If so, you have to put two pluses in front of it...and a word of advice: if you wait until closer to dl, you can get a better sense for who the wolves are.

EDIT: Oh, and no - people vote and the person who gets the most votes dies. The mod posts the narration, but in it, the village lynches the lynchee.

[Celuien]

Bah. I don't like the hairy kind of strong leaders, and mistrust leaders in general, even when not hairy and wolvish. Anarchy for the win!

I think I shall wait for more of the fallers to wake up before selecting suspects. So far, I've nothing to go on, but am greatly enjoying the nicknaming.

[Blind Guardian]

I'll wait...Isn't there a rules section for this?

Really? I think strong, hairy leaders are quite excellent.

[Blind Guardian]

Then I wouldn't be a good leader!

[Loslote]

Not really - there was talk of writing a Helpful Newbie's Guide to Playing WW, but it never really happened. The best you can do is read through an old game, but that takes quite a bit of time.

[Blind Guardian]

I read through the end of the last game.

Read the beginning of that!

As long as they take a bath...

[Celuien]

I think votes used to have to be bolded to make them easier to see and count, but I haven't been here for a very, very long time and don't know if that has become an official rule or not.

Oh, most definitely when they take baths.
