WW LXXX: It's About Time!

I already explained why I think the EW voting was suspicious

I still quite don't understand if you thought so only yesterday or also today (I got the impression it was the latter). I mean, it feels odd if you find a bandwagon suspicious that killed a wolf, even if it was mostly good luck... Do you really expect the wolves had planned it (or it was the seer's work)?

If the two wolves are among the four voters, one at least is gonna get a free ride right to the end of the game.

I know we shouldn't ignore anybody just because they happened to kill a wolf, but it looks mighty cobblerish to me to try to direct our attention to the people who voted for EW.

Hmm what was that a response to? I mean, I don't think I had any more questions about your day 1 activities. You're beginning to look rather jumpy with your lengthy explanations of your behaviour.
For the record, I don't think there are many people here who actually hate day 1s so much. See, even Fea, who seems to post mostly nonsense, sets traps in her posts and draws conclusions based on how people react to them. And what stops you from being controversial in traditional games? I don't think it's all that difficult.
I just realised something (which I'm not going to speak about right now - hope that makes me seem more like normal me, ie. annoying, Greenie ) and am actually beginning to get somewhat bad vibes from Boro.

We others have no way of knowing whether you'd actually have done it. We have no way of knowing if the wolves had an ingenious plan to lynch EW (or somebody else, it could've been any one of them) to make the others look better. Unlikely as it is, we can't really ignore it. Besides, I've seen a Borowolf before who behaved exactly the way I didn't expect him to, and I got to pay for it.

If you'd like, I can try my best to fix that.

Greenie's summary looks relatively genuine.

What do you mean by an honest guess, and how can you tell it from a dishonest guess or a simple "I need to get someone lynched so I'll just throw there a few reasons and that should be enough" kind of vote? And when saying you don't trust Eomer in any way, do you mean you're not convinced he's innocent, or you find him completely unworthy of your trust?

That implies that she'd rather see Fea alive than either of these two.

I think that only implies she didn't want to vote for Fea. If she had said she thought Fea was innocent, I would have expected her to try to save her, but she didn't say so. If I don't have any strong suspects, I'm usually happy whichever way the lynch turns out - after all, others might have noticed things I never paid attention to.

Huh? She appeared guilty to you because you agreed with her? I wonder what that makes you. ;-)

Sally: I know she always appears like a cobbler, but... I just get a feeling from her.

I know exactly what you mean.

Agan: I always, always, always suspect Aganzir. I am completely irrational so you shouldn't bother reading this post.

Aww, why? :-p

I definitely agree with you. The Lottie I'm used to (based on only one game with her, though) was really, how shall I phrase it, strong with her suspicions. ;-)

Okay I had to leave for a while and you guys posted some more...

I believe she thinks you accuse her because her behaviour is similar to a gifted!Lottie's... But to be honest I'm not entirely sure about the meaning of that post either.

Huh?? Okay skip just rose much higher on my cobbler list.

Alright they need me again, will read & comment on the rest of the posts later.

[Eomer of the Rohirrim]

Ok, one more post.

Aganzir, I haven't played WW much recently, but in one of the last games I played I basically trusted Wolf-Nerwen right until the end.

I trusted her because she said everything I was thinking before I had the chance to post it. If she ever does that again I will be forced to try to lynch her.

Does that make sense now?

Right, really away now. I have to get up early tomorrow as I have a visitor from the Barrow-Downs this weekend: fellow Warg-appreciator SamwiseGamgee! Maybe he can help unwrap the mystery of the two remaining wolves...

Or, far more likely, we'll get lost in the pub and I'll be mod-fired.

I'd like to highlight to you that Skip insinuated you had changed your playing style, whereas I balanced his subtle accusation by claiming you hadn't.

I was pointing out that you'd just liked my behavior now to my behavior as a Gifted, and that if I died, I'd be highly suspicious of you...although, now that I've said that, we have to take even that with a heaping spoonful of salt.

Bit boring, actually. If I had real suspicious (other than a really, really weak case against Eomer and an unsupported gut feeling about Greenie), I'd start waving my torch and pitchfork.

That wasn't meant to be a hint to Pitchie, but I don't want to bother rephrasing.

No, I believe it's somewhat suspicious to link someone's behavior to that of a Gifted's, because only wolves are actively looking for Gifteds. It's not really an accusation; just throwing that point out there.

EDIT: xed with Eomer

[satansaloser2005]

My shoddy interwebs and I are back. What's the vote count?

*is a bum*

[Pitchwife]

Looking mostly OK

Agan - I still don't get the reason for her vote yesterDay and disagree with her aboutsally and Boro, plus she seems to be looking for cobblers all over the place rather than wolves, but she doesn't give me the impression of having a hidden agenda.
Boro - sounds reasonable and genuine, and bonus points for giving TEW the coup de grace; most of his posts toDay were explaining/defending his vote, I'd like to see some more from him.
Fea - better toDay, now she's started applying her extraorbitant awesomeness to the game, and bonus points for giving TEW his second vote; would still like to see more, but I'm not going to vote her again for the time being.
Greenie - not that much to go on, but looks decent altogether.
Nerwen - always a big unknown, but most of what she's said toDay looks good.
sally - looks more or less like her normal silly self, only a bit more mysterious; may be 'up to something' (to use her own words), but doesn't give me any downright evil vibes yet.


Could go either way

Lottie - I see how her vote yesterDay could cause some doubts, but I don't think she'd have pushed The Elf-Wolf to the lead as a packmate; could theoretically have been the move of a clueless cobbler, but that would depend on either Fea or me being a wolf.


Somewhat suspicious

skip - looked OK to me earlier in the Day, but his interaction with Eomer - both about Lottie and earlier about the 'fishiness' of the TEWagon - rings some subtle bells; I'm still leaning toward innocent newbie seeking advice, but wouldn't rule out wolf-cub looking for guidance from senior packmate.
wilwa - I'm torn about her: her vote could have been an attempt to look like she was trying to save Fea without doing anything decisive, or an attempt to save TEW, and I think her case against Lottie stands on thin legs, but all this depends on too many unknowns; so I'll be watching her, but not voting her toDay.


Somewhat more suspicious

Eomer - I'm a bit uneasy about the way he's been harping on the theme of wolves among the TEW voters (not that it's impossible, but it'd take some very daring and confident wolves to pull off such a manœuver that early in the game); almost makes me think of a wolf trying to avenge his fallen packmate. His list basically amounts to 'no clear opinion of anybody'. And see above under skip.

I'd just like to point out that, as far as either of us knew, our votes were basically identical.

But, also:

I rather agree. Does anyone else have any strong feelings why Eomer shouldn't be lynched? At the moment, he's looking like where my vote will go.

[satansaloser2005]

All of Eomer's "cases" are flimsy enough, and I'm not the biggest fan of his lists, but I'm not sure he's not just an overeager ordo. Blah, indecisiveness.

Of course if he's lynched and is another wolf, I'll be epically cross, so for the sake of not semi-defending two wolves, I have to agree that he looks bad.

That and he really does.


ETA: That second line should say "two possible wolves", for clarification. I just realized it looked a bit strange.

[Loslote]

Right, well, to get this out of the way:

++ Eomer of the Rohirrim

for being vague and noncommital, and for making my gut have feelings of nervousness.

[Feanor of the Peredhil]

Not going to be around for DL (gotta leave right now for something unexpected; no worries, not an emergency, just something I didn't know I'd be asked to do). Sorry I'm a day two failure. Since I don't know who to vote for and I refuse to vote rushed, I'm abstaining so that I don't vote stupidly and cause a bigger problem.

Guess what, I totally hadn't noticed the X-ing. You're quite right.

Interesting, since in the same post she said her suspects were skip, Greenie, Eomer and me.

Whoops I apparently forgot to quote this post. No, I only said I was going to keep an eye on you. It's not the same as suspecting you. If I don't have a real suspect on day 1, I rather vote for someone quiet (because I'm mean like that).

Ah alright. I really should play more often. Now it doesn't look quite so sinister any more.

But if he's only played with you when you were a gifted?

I'm really at a loss as to whom to vote... I have so many options, and something fishy that I can't really put my finger on seems to be going on all around me. I'm also seriously flip-flopping on Eomer, about every second post of his looks furry and the rest seem to more or less mirror my thoughts.
I'll most likely be here till deadline.

[satansaloser2005]

I hate when my list looks so much like everyone else's. o_O

Guilty
Muffin
Eomer

Mehbe
Lottiepop
Agan (overdefensive, seriously? only if you had a real reason to vote me, heh)
Greenie (she's still fishy to me)

Innocent for now
Nerwen (I suspect her, thus she's innocent....heh)
Pitch
skip
Boro
Fea


I'm too tired to consider loads of candidates. Blah.


I want to look at Muffin's posts again, but she's seriously looking furry to me. o_O


EDIT: x'd since my last

That's exactly why you seem overdefensive. My vote was, after all, quite random.

[satansaloser2005]

Bother. Internet died.


And I did, Agan. I know you don't have to believe me, but the post was eaten and I only realized it when I got home, at which point....well, I brought it up.


I know, I know, shut up. I hope this actually posts this time.

ETA: It did, but crossed with Sir Mod. Sowwie, love.

[satansaloser2005]

Also, because it's too appropriate to resist....

"If you die, can I have your iPod?"

[Feanor of the Peredhil]

Sigh. I didn't think he was the Ranger (I keep sort-of forgetting that role)... but I did think he was innocent. So now I'm a bit bummed that my list of people I trusted is slimmed down that much more.
