Okay. A hastily gathered "impressions-list" for now.

Most probably will not vote toDay(unless something drastic happens)

Ozban - newbie-pass, with quite a nice performance thus far
Glirdan - is kind of hypernervous when a wolf and doesn't look like that right now
Loslote -tends to get lynched early on most of the time; she seems to act suspiciously "by nature".

Eönwë - only came in, no idea as now, subject to change when he posts.

I'd lean not voting toDay at least on the possible suspicions I could have right now.

Legate of Amon Lanc - someone said he was wishy-washy (or something), I'd say he's explaining everyhing too much - and doing Legate 360's...
Boromir88 - acts a bit weird but maybe it's just this "new Boromir" we've seen in a few last games?

Total quetionmarks but would love to see more... (they have said things anyway)

Nerwen
A Little Green


Somewhat weary of or could vote...

Pitchwife - I'm a bit worried about his defencive-thoroughness, like there was a case to proof against Shasta's odd (bordering ridiculous) suspicions.
Shastanis Althreduin - makes me uneasy with his odd suspicions on Pitchie and all that jazz with Lottie (of the two I find Shasta more suspicious).

A bit anxious about these: they have been around, have posted but I still can't form an opinion on them... maybe because they haven't said anything? Prove me wrong!

I'd rather vote one of the last five toDay.

EDIT: X'd from my last post onwards

Not that I disagree so much with the vote itself...
My appt. is late, naturally. And you're right, I misread that. I probably would still have voted for him, though.

15 minutes? Does anyone have the tally? I feel most like voting Shasta right now, wouldn't object to voting someone nice and noncommittal either - except that lynching Shasta could give us more to analyze toMorrow, given that almost everyone has said something about him and he had some pretty strong interactions with a few villagers.


EDIT: x-ed since Lommy, thanks Nog for the tally!

So....after quick skim.

Pitch looks fine to me, especially the one that he did in response to one of Shastas (sorry, forgot to quote it and dont want to waste time finding the post number)

Lottie kind of always seems suspicious on Day 1s, it's like a natural thing for her, so I'd rather not vote her.

Shasta, the only thing I don't like is the post where he quoted Pitch and highlighted stuff, cause like Pitch pointed out, none of the highlighted stuff looks bad to me.

Gah, so I don't want to vote any of them, and I haven't had time to look closely at anyone else, and I have 4 minutes. I hate Day 1s, everyone always looks fine to me.

So I'm going to do this:

++Wilwa

Cause I've never done it before, and this seems like a good oppurtunity to.

x'ed with a bunches

Ok, well I've kind of caught up, but I had to skim read most of the second page.

There's a few comments I'd like to make before anything else.

1. Why Shasta? I really don't find him suspicious at all. I mean, yes, he's defensive, but he just seems like normal innocent Shasta. In fact, he just seems like an easy Day 1 lynch, and I think it's quite likely that one of the Shasta-voters is a wolf who had to vote early.

But then again, this is worse:

Saying your about to make a random vote is never good, because it seems like your covering yourself against any future effects that might have. So even a little suspicion right now is better than voting randomly.


2. Secondly, all this Cobbler-talk is quite interesting- especially seeing as some people seem like they're changing what their saying to seem more innocent and in line with the crowd.

As for my opinion, I think we should just vote for who seems suspicious, because generally the cobblers seem even more suspicious than wolves, so we'll probably lynch them before the wolves- though obviously it would be much better for us if the wolves kill the cobbler first.

edit: x-ed since Nog's #92

It was more of a metaphor trying to say that "convince us" you're making an effort...
