I says that I is in agreement with this here landlubberin' mud pup. Sumtins not right with that there Eonwe. The way hes a splittin' his mind about the little lass Nerwen and that there Guardian o' the Blind feller has me thinking. What if he's a murderous scumbucket who's tryin' to stick w' th' person who bes making the most sense in his mind? Or p'rhap he be one our mateys who be all confuddled in that brain o' his. I be keeping my eye on him....would keep both, but I lost me other one in a fight with some sea critters.

Yo ho ho and a barrel o' rum
yo ho ho an' a kick in the bum
yo ho ho we're all out o' rum
yo ho ho down th' barrel o' a gun!

Boy, this is a great day to sing!

[wilwarin538]

Arr, I don be fancying the was the lass Nerwen brought ups the 'Rule o' Three', since it be not a meritable reason for suspicion, and since it includes 'erself it mayhaps be a way for the lass to try and seem shinnier.

I also don appreciate singin' at a time like this. Our lives be in danger, and this here Guardian o' the Blind is singing and seeming rather joyful. Perhaps it be his way to be about, while not actually sayin anythin' of any use?

My best mate Glirdy is agreein' with people. He tends to agree with people when he has somethin' sinister to mask. Though, him and I be often incorrect in our assumptions of one another, it still makes me uneased.

Arr, me computer be havin`some difficulties, and it be the only one I got. If my absence extends past sunset, my apologies.

Looked a might dodgy there, w' your jumpin' on what Nerwen was sayin', it did. Nerwen's suspicion itself weren't all that fair lookin', aye, but your reaction looked fouler.

Talkin' o stringin' up the cap'n! If that ain't mutinous, what be?

What be ye sayin'? I'm not hearin' ye plain.

[Macalaure]

Alright, now who do we have here so far?

Haven't played with Blind Guardian before, so I won't vote for him/her(?) the first few days unless I have to. Just chatter and singing so far, though.

I'm not going to even try to figure Nerwen out at this point. I never know what she's up to and when I think I do I'm usually wrong.

Eonwe, like BG, is incomprehensible and chatty. He has the disadvantage of having played with me before, unfortunately.

I always end up wanting to lynch Inzil, so until I'm really, seriously and unbearably suspicious of him (which is probably tomorrow ), he'll get a pass.

I can't read Rikae, so I won't try.

Autume is awake and in need of rum. That is good to know.

"All this suspicion"?? There's barely any and you're trying to discourage people? Not good. I wish I could understand his point against Eonwe. I agree with Wilwa, though - the tone is fishy.

Shasta is alive, which is always a good thing to be for a pirate.

Wilwa talks like a real person and makes sense. I greatly approve of that.

Boro, Elf-warrior, and Morsul are still asleep.

Jumpin' eh?
When I was jus' gettin annoyed that none o' ye were wakin' up yet, usin' Blind Guardian as an example? It makes sense that fishmen be sleepin' in th' day if they be killin' in th'night. An' Blindbeard was awake in th' early mornin', which i' jus' more suspicious. seems li'e ye jus' wanna be suspicious o' somethin' an' ye picked me.

But ev'n more worryin' i' tha' scallywag Glirdan. Straight away 'e be agreein' abou' th' Rule o' Three or whatever it be call'd. An afore ye even started wi' clear suspicion in me direction, Glirdan joins in. Ye sure yer no' both fishmen?

Shiver me timbers, matey! What else should I be doin'? We be needin' t' catch them fishmen, it's not safe t' trust any of ye scallywags!

[Blind Guardian]

I blame you!

Compleatly innocent for once:
Guardian of the Blind

Innocent until proven guilty:
Eönwë
Nerwen
Grildan
Rikae
Elf warior
Iziladûn
Morsul
Mac
Boro
Shasta
Wilwa

guilty:
Noia :P

did I miss anyone?

[Rikae]

Well, I was actually semi-serious about Eonwe - his posts do seem forced, and they aren't getting less so. At th' same time, Glirdan's suspicion doesn't really make sense or at least isn't explained well, and could be a fish's way o' bandwagoning on th' closest thing to a suspicion that's been voiced so far.
I'm opposed to lynching Blind Guardian toDay on principle, but her(?) singing be soon to become annoying enough to make me reconsider. Put a sock in it!

So you expect me to find it natural to speak about pirate topics and in the right dialect?



edit: double post by me. A bad sign. It be meanin' the ye be too quiet when ye shoud be talkin'.

I'm just as confused by this. I didn't really see an explanation for why suspicion was cast onto Glirdan.

Here's my list for now. Obviously anything is subject to change.

Innocent:
Zil - so far I haven't seen anything that makes me suspicious of him
Nerwen - ditto
BG - I think that she was just being excited about the game. I could be wrong though. For now she is innocent though.
Rikae - I haven't seen anything that jumps out at me. Some have mentioned her bringing up the pack o' three. But not sure that this qualifies as suspicious. Maybe it's those people that are making a bigger deal out of this that are suspicious.
Mac - Same as Zil and Nerwen
Shasta - Same as Zil and Nerwen and Mac
Tum - Well obviously I'd find myself innocent.

Slightly suspicious:
Wilwa - mentions finds Glirdan slightly suspicious. Reason:

He tends to agree with people when he has somethin' sinister to mask. Though, him and I be often incorrect in our assumptions of one another, it still makes me uneased.

Eonwe - Seemed to jump on BG pretty quickly

Haven't seen yet:
Boro
Morsul

Edit: x-ed with Wilwa

[Morsul the Dark]

Well now... Apparently I didn't realise today was a day phase I was sure it was Night... Well... I hates tto do this but I hadn't planned on checking the downs today so I've only got a minute.

++Nerwen

Based on She's posted the most and With her Piratey talk confused me...(Me, confused... Shocker!)

[Macalaure]

I raise my eyebrow in BG's general direction for obstinate unhelpfulness.

I don't particularly like how Eonwe jumps on the first person to attract some suspicion. Sure, he had to vote early and had little to go on, but it seems like he is trying to find an excuse to vote somebody instead of attempting to find out who is actually evil. And having little to work with is not an excuse for not trying and picking the first best thing. Wilwa also has a good point about his defensiveness.

[Morsul the Dark]

Hmm... I don't like Nerwen Defendin' me, She knows I'm prone to vote somewhere else when she fills my sails with flattery! My piratey talk stinks

Also The Eonwe Wagon seemed wrong. I understand the one for me. But Eonwe from rereading wasn't that suspicious.

So when I have time I'll really look into her voters! for now, Off to Boston!...

Oh An' Captain I'd be much Obliged if you put up a Living Dead List Thank Ye.

[wilwarin538]

Okee. So yesterday sucked, though Day 1 bandwagons usually do.

Shall we look at votes? Yes we shall.

Eonwe -> Glidran
Morsul -> Nerwen
Rikae -> Morsul
Wilwa -> Eonwe
Inzil -> Eonwe(2)
Nerwen->Eönwë(3)
Mac->Eönwë(4)
Shasta -> Morsul(2)
Autume -> Morsul(3)
BeiGei->Morsul (4)
Glirdan -> Eonwe (5)
Elf-Warrior -> Eonwe (6)

If Morsul is guilty, then Glirdan likely is too, since he was the one who saved him there. So basically everyone who voted after me voted for someone who had votes already, Inzil doesn't look bad for it, Nerwen kind of. Mac kind of does though (in my opinion more then 3 votes for the same person in a row is a bad sign). Shasta looks really good, he split up the votes, which is nice, and if Morsul is guilty Shasta probably isn't. BeiGei's vote is interesting, since it made the tie, she's likely innocent if Morsul is guilty. Elf-Warrior's vote is kind of bad too.

Basically I don't like the way that looks. Everyone was copying each other's vote, and it just doesn't look nice. Right now, based on votes alone, Mac's, Glirdan's and Elf-Warrior's votes look the worse.

Well, now I have to go. It's my mom's birthday and the family is going out for breakfast. We have a lot planned today, but I'll try my hardest to get on as much as possible.

Inaccurate, eh? Here's what those three said:

Obviously Eönwë was innocent, but at the time all that did look odd.

And as you noted, you voted for Eönwë yourself.

Originally Posted by The Elf-warrior

++Eönwë

Despite the fact that you'd made a pointed accusation against someone else shortly before you voted.

Personally, I find it suspicious a seasoned sea salt such as Nerwen would give that old fish tale any credibility. However, I have a bad feeling about Rikae's post #15. That smilied first sentence raises my internal warning bell. Yes, it could just be an innocent joke. But that isn't what my gut says. Gonna to review the thread afore I vote, but Rikae, I accuse you.

You changed your mind about Nerwen in your next post, but you seem to have totally forgotten about 'accusing' Rikae. And I, not Rikae, was your initial focus toDay.

[Boromir88]

Yar, har har, I be alive. I be thinkin' there was a bit more than jus' rum in thar drink, sumone must 'ave slipped somethin' sinister t' catch me off my wits! Which one of ye dogs did it! (And mind ye do it again for me?)

[wilwarin538]

Back again.

Still not too much going on then? For 17.5 hours that's kind of dissapointing, especially since I have to vote in about 2.5 hours. (going to sleep early since I work early).

At this point, if I had to vote, I would have no idea who to vote for. So all I ask is that someone please do something suspicious in the next 2.5ish hours. kthnxbai.

BG's list bugs me about as much as his songs do. Glirdan looks crazy suspicious, but hey, he kind of always does to me. Nerwen's 'rule of 3' thing was odd, but I guess it was something to say and kind of a Day 1 tradition. I appreciate Mac talking normal. And this made me giggle:

I have a jar of dirt! I have a jar of dirt! And guess what's inside it?

Yar. Indeed th' feelin' be mutual. Bu' I dun't see why ye sh'ud walk th' plank toDay.

I see th' sense o' keepin' up w' th' seafarin' talk fer Day 1, but ToMorrer cu'd be a diff'rent story.

1 AM, I believe, be the DL.

Can we use it to get ol' Davy Jones to call back the fishmen?


edit: x-ed wi' Inzil's last post.

[Eönwë]

Arr!

Since I was gettin' up at th'early hour, I be gettin' tired an' be goin' t' me cabin.

I be a-thinkin' that Glirdan be the mos' suspicious out o' th' lot o' ye, so 'e'll be gettin' my vote.

So far, e's jus' been latchin' on t' what's been said, an' twistin' it in 'is own way.

None o' ye seem completely fishy, but out o' ye, Fishdan be seemin' th' worst, an' th' mos' likely t' be workin' agains' us.


++Glirdan

[autume98]

I'm back, and I found me some rum!

I have to go through the posts and post me thoughts. I'll be back me hearties! Arrrr!

Edit: x-ed with Wilwa

[wilwarin538]

Ok. So really not much to go on, but I have to sleep now cause I'm getting up really early.

I'm going to vote for

++Eonwe

He seems really defensive over fairly small comments. For example:

All of those just seem unnecessarily defensive to me. So that's the best I got. Sorry I can't stay up any later.
