WW LXXIX: Fall From Olympus

[Macalaure]

I just got a big shock looking at the clock. I thought the deadline was still 2am, but the lack of incoming votes made me think it was earlier.

[autume98]

And since I've got the time and you're here Nerwen. I know you have some concerns regarding me. So ask away and I'll answer your questions.

No new ground– just that you voted someone you believed innocent, when there was someone else you actually suspected. Now, toDay you explain this by saying it was clearly going to be either BG or Steve, and Steve was the one you wanted to save.

All right.

But you also seem more concerned about how you look than the rights or wrongs of the case:

Are you saying you're hoping Eonwe is lynched and turns out innocent? Because that's what it looks like you're saying.

And then, you seem to be latching on to everyone's suspicions.

EDIT:X'd with everybody. And now I'm running out of time again (slow internet!)

I'll have to address this toMorrow if I'm around.

I want to address this since I didn't get a chance to yesterDay. I was NOT hoping for Eonwe to get lynched. I was saying that IF he did get lynched that I was hoping he was innocent which it turned out he was.

As for latching onto everyone's suspicions, I didn't realize I was. I know that people have made comments about me agreeing with others. It was day one. I haven't played that many games so I am still getting used to the feel of day one. I think I am catching on, usually it is ok to joke around on day 1, but form your own opinions. Don't just agree with others or else it looks like a wolf hiding amongst the innocent. Gotcha!

This makes me raise my eyebrows a bit. Why on earth would you hope the one we lynch turns out innocent? Unless you're a wolf that is, but if you are you wouldn't say it aloud!

Dude, that don't make no sense. (And the double negative was strangely to prove my point, believe it or not.) I know you didn't want to get him lynched, but only one group of peole hopes that a lynch victim turns out innocent. That's the wolves.

Let me explain. Once (off-Downs) I was an innocent and the lynch was going in a direction I didn't approve of. I was fairly certain (as certain as another innocent can be anyway) that the person was innocent, but no one would listen to me. After the fact, I did an "I told you so" dance, but I was not hoping that he was innocent. I was hoping that people would either listen to me and not lynch the person I thought innocent, or that perhaps I was wrong and he would turn out to be a wolf. Occasionally, yes, I've been known to trap people with their votes, and innocents have to die, but I never hope for an innocent to die, I hope for the tells from the people who are trying to lynch them. There's a big difference.

Basically, you never hope that you're right about someone's innocence and that they'll be lynched. The game doesn't work like that. Unless you're evil.


EDIT: x'd with a little sensical one

So you were saying that!

EDIT:X'd with Sally.

Let me try this again. Am I happy that an innocent is dead. No. I just felt that his innocence proved the reason I voted for BG. Which just happens to be why people were going after me yesterDay.

[satansaloser2005]

So I knew Glirdan had to have plans up his sleeves; this game has been far too simple so far. I combed through the narrations carefully, looking for clues, but there were none to be found on a special game event or secret code.

Then I started looking at his admin thread posts. Still nothing. I was becoming disheartened but I knew that if I looked hard enough I could find his plan.

And found it I did.

Now the only thing we have to figure out is what the Night loosed upon us. Half an hour clearly stands for something, but I can't decide what. Perhaps it was a play on words for "half of our" and it's meant to signify another evil lover's activation? "Hell hath no fury" and all of that? Who could this be?!?!

[Rikae]

Well, I'd say that was a nice scene I just wrote, and...
people, people, people. Can't say I was wild over the original candidates, but this last minute scrambling isn't likely to do much good either... I mean, Nienna? Why her? You'd do as well to lynch me, and I already have a vote.

Yeah, me too.

Okay, what's the case against Nienna? I'm not going to vote her if it's just random.

After all, we probably will have to go through this again toMorrow if Steve lives.

EDIT:X'd since Mac.

If it's Nienna you're piling on, count me out.

Then why didn't you say that before? Your previous posts made it sound like you were desparing of any possible other option, rather than going to bed. There's a big difference. One implies not caring all that much, the other implies that you did care, but were prevented from that by RL. The fact that you waited this long to mention it kind of indicates that you're grasping at straws.

You know that I'd be more than fine with this.

I mentioned it in my post when I voted for her.

Edit: x-ed with Rikae, Mod, and Rikae

Ah, I see. Okay then, scratch my last point. You were not grasping for straws with that last defense.

[Rikae]

For that matter, what's the case against Steve... (and yes, I've heard the arguments, and still I ask...)

This day has been such a waste of time, for the most part. I'll be very surprised if any good comes of it.

You know, Mac seems to be directing all this "hey! Let's vote a random person instead of Steve!" business, which makes me think we may have been wise to lynch him after all...

[Rikae]

Another person than Steve wouldn't have been a problem in the first place, but to say the least, all this seems pretty unfocused.

[the phantom]

The Tally:

Greenie ==> Mac
Shasta ==> Nog
Kath ===> Nog (2)
Lalaith ==> Eonwe
Nog ====> Eonwe (2)
Wilwa ==> Eonwe (3)
Nienna ==> Eonwe (4)
Inzil ====> Eonwe (5)
Rikae ===> Rikae

Yet to vote:
Sally, Mac, Phantom, Nerwen, Mira, Folwren, Lottie, Tum, Eonwe

Who is around:
Mac, Phantom, Nerwen, Lottie, Tum, Eonwe

[Glirdan]

Sheez.....Did ANYONE read my message on the Admin thread last night?

Due to the fact that I had stopped the Night half an hour later, I changed toDay to 2:30am to make up for it.

HOWEVER, the Night will LOOSE half an hour as I will be starting the Day at the regular time of 2am (unless otherwise specified.

Sincerely,
Glirdanmod (ooo...Wilwa was right, I like that name too )
