Deadline, since I have things I Need to do and no one's changing their votes, I'm sure. You lynched Lottie. Now, I can't reveal her role for whatever reason, but Nogrod also died and he was an ordo.

Night 3 begins.

Shastanis Althreduin · 12-10-2010, 02:24 AM

I'm sorry for the delay. I've been trying to load this page since Night ended.

To compensate, I'll just tell you that Aragorn smacked the wolves on the noses with a rolled up newspaper when they tried to kill someone.

Day 3 begins.

Eomer of the Rohirrim · 12-10-2010, 02:32 AM

That does not surprise me.

Westu, Aragorn, hal!

Legate of Amon Lanc · 12-10-2010, 02:54 AM

Hey, so at least something positive! I guess we could sort of take it the way that this compensates well for the loss of Nog yesterDay. Still, I think whatever the outcome of yesterDay's lynch was, at least we got the business with the Heir done. Now we still need to catch our first Wolf, but now at least we can start playing "properly", like not thinking about whether or not to lynch Wolves or whatnot...

As for the Aragorn-action, definitely it bought us more time. Whether it was a coincidence or not that somebody was targeted and protected, I think might be shown, but after reading this and the last bit of yesterDay, I actually have a certain suspicion now.

In any case, I hope toDay is going to be successful - we definitely should not go to any kind of inactivity, quite the opposite, as now we finally can do something. I am going to review some things and will be around from time to time during the day...

EDIT: x-ed with Eomer

A Little Green · 12-10-2010, 05:46 AM

A total of two posts this far? Are you kidding me?

Anyway, I have really limited time toDay - I'll have to be gone for good in an hour, which sucks. I might be back before DL but can't be sure so I'm going to vote super-early to be on the safe side.

I'll read the end of yesterDay again now to get some proper idea of what happened - I've skimmed it but that's all - but one thing first. Well, two. No, three, actually. First, yay for the Hunter thing working (but not yay for Nog being an ordo). Second, yay for the Ranger! Third, sorry, Eomer, for voting for you twice in a row with terrible reasons, I was pretty sure you were the Hunter. Well, obviously I was wrong.

A Little Green · 12-10-2010, 06:08 AM

Wilwa - Good vibes from the little I've seen.
Boro - Hmm. I'd like a closer look if I have time, there's a vague nagging something I can't put my finger on.
Elronhubbard - Could go either way. Maybe leaning good, though I'm not at all sure.
Eomer - Leaning good.
Legate - I agree with whoever it was who said there's something off about his list. He's being fishy. He's always kind of wishy-washy, but it looks calculated this time. Another I'd take a closer look at if I had the time.
Inzil - Sneaky as ever, I have no idea.
Lommy - Good vibes from her too.
Nessa - I'm uneasy with her. She's the third I would like a closer look at.

So if I had to hazard a guess at who our three villains are, I'd say Legate, Nessa and Boro - but knowing the general accuracy of my guesses I'm probably wrong about at least one and probably two. I'm not surprised if Zil and/or Hubbard are wolves. However, if the wolves are Wilwa, Eomer and Lommy, I'm going to eat my hat.

A Little Green · 12-10-2010, 06:22 AM

Right, I had a quick look at Boro - with only five posts from him it didn't take that much time. He's busy, obviously, which might explain a lot. He votes Nessa on Day 1, not based on any valid reason I can detect. Quite a lot of people voted randomly that Day, but I still don't like it. Day 2 he votes Lommy based on an argument about her pointing out the silliness of voting Nerwen being fishy. He had suspected Lommy already on Day 1 because her RL conversation with me (that she related in her first post) had a fishy tone.

So? I was about to write "could be wolf, could be innocent" but realised that's a bit Captain Obvious-y.. His consistence on Lommy looks odd - the way he suspects her for something on Day 1 and a completely different thing the next. Brings me in mind of a wolf who has decided on a suspect and tries to be consistent with it. It's kind of weird that pretty much the only one he suspects is Lommy, and both times based on a different detail. Then again, it could also be that he's innocent, and the Day 1 suspicion guided him to read the next thing she said as wolvish as well? Argh.

I think my conclusion will be "leaning bad". I wish I had time to look at Leggy or Nessa, I think I'll try if there's still no one around when I post this..

Boro's an interesting one, as is Legate. I wouldn't worry about Nessa, though.

Actually, having taken a look at Nessa, I'm inclined to agree. She looks better after inspection, though I'm not entirely convinced yet. Won't vote for her toDay. I don't have time for checking Legate's posts now - he has as many as Nessa but his tend to be quite lengthy.

Inziladun · 12-10-2010, 06:43 AM

Well done, Ranger! That moves toDay away from being make-or-break, which it could have been.

Pity that Lottie was wrong about Nog, but at least we still have another Hunter, and a Seer and a Ranger still. With nine of us left that makes it 6:3 against the wolves.

I wonder if anything can be made of yesterDay's votes. We know an innocent (Lottie) was supportive of the Hunter-lynch plan and another innocent (Nog was rather hesitant about it. Does that say anything about the stance people took on it? A wolf would have a reason to have been for it, with the possibility of two innocents at once going down, and to fear it, as xe or xyr packmate could have been targeted by the Hunter.

I'll be shortly going to work and have a doctor's appointment in a few hours as well , but I'll try to check in as often as possible during the workday.

x/d with the previous three
