WW LLXVIII: Yar Har Har and a Bottle o' Rum - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Macalaure · 07-01-2010, 07:51 PM

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.

Arr, matey. This pirate went and got himself some education!

So anyway, here's what I'm thinking right now. I want to vote Morsul as per usual because his one post irritates me a bit, but I think that's probably knee-jerk. Eonwe is possible too but I need to go back and look at him a bit. Nerwen is fine with me for today, as are Rikae and Mac. BG is generally unhelpful - I don't really think it's a tell either way. My gut says that Zil is bad news but again, nothing to back that up. Wilwa seems sensible and I don't know about Glirdan. If I missed someone, they're under my radar.

Rikae · 07-01-2010, 08:29 PM

Eonwe, I don't think pirate lingo comes any more naturally to the rest of us. I could be wrong, though.
Eonwe is defensive, but I'm not sure it's a sign of fishiness. People seem a bit too quick to jump on him, too, which makes me wary. Glirdan has been latching on to what people say, and it's odd that Mac should suspect the latter on grounds that apply more to the former. Wilwa seems to be admitting the desire to fabricate a vote here:

I'm the most suspicious of Glirdan and Eonwe, but it doesn't seem likely I'll hear enough to make an informed choice between them, and I doubt they're both evil. Bah.

Doesn't seem like much has happened since I last posted. Although Morsul did come and post a vote. His post wasn't very helpful.

Overall I don't see anything that is helpful in me making my decision on who to vote yet. I do agree with Rikae here:

Rikae · 07-01-2010, 09:14 PM

I have to vote now, and though I find Glirdy and Steve fishy, I don't feel like I have enough evidence to feel right about lynching either of them on Day 1, since Eonwe posts quite a bit in a (so far) awfully quiet game and I think it's been a while since Glirdan played...
So I'm just going to vote

++Morsul

Because if you're going to make a random vote, make a random vote, but explaining your vote in a way that seems to apply to another person (it seems as though he thinks he's voting for Blind Guardian)? Such laziness deserves a reprimand.

Givin' the sailor talk the 'ol heave-ho, are we?

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

Forgot to highlight, me thinks. Let's see. What exactly did Glirdan say?

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.

Hmm. Not putting any serious suspicion toward Eönwë. At least it didn't seem that way to me. Eönwë's reactions to that indeed seem overblown.

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

Not the best of reasons, there, obviously. A convenient way of sneaking in a vote you know won't be followed up?

Can't make it til DL, so I need to vote very soon.

x/d with Rikae

Inziladun · 07-01-2010, 09:37 PM

I don't guess I'll vote Morsul ToDay.

Eönwë's edginess gives him the worst cast. I also recall the way he kept saying things to the effect of "How do we get the Fishmen?" "Let's talk about how to get the Fishmen." I tend to see that as a sign of evil intent.

++Eönwë

Blind Guardian · 07-01-2010, 09:48 PM

Wo! Lots has happened since I left!

Inziladûn->Eönwë
Wilwa->Eönwë
Rikae->Morsul
Morsul->Nerwen
Eönwë->Glidran

let's see what happens!

Blind Guardian · 07-01-2010, 09:53 PM

I just realized I might make it to Day two!! Wahoo!!!
