A bit busy right now, and feeling a bit disengaged and lethargic. I mean really, if it's Shasta or Nerwen we couldn't be expected to guess it given subnormal votes and participation. If it's Fea we couldn't be expected to guess given her volunteering of special gaming conditions and general random disinterest.

Meh, whatever. Just so long as Wilwa and I don't get lynched today I don't really care. Fight it out people. I would suggest a multi-lynch, but we can't do those.

I'm sort of in the mood for just attacking anyone that accuses me, as from my perspective it's as likely as anything to be some sort of evil plot.

Perhaps I won't reach 100 posts for once.

Isn't that *always* how it looks from your perspective, phantom?

Also, I'm getting sick of everyone saying I'm not posting. I've posted about as much as everyone else, actually. Which given my current circumstances has really been quite good of me, I think. So there.

I can certainly sympathize. For me it's just been a matter of the perception that you haven't seemed as zealous in rooting out evil as usual. I'm very worried about you when I'm on the bad side.

Not going to justify, or argue. Waste your vote if you like. Even better, let a few follow your lead, and let the good side see the result.

I didn't know there'd be a no-lynch when I cast the vote (I thought there was a legit shot at Inzil- plus the Been-Stung vote doesn't count possibly and so on).

Anyway- just about to leave for Lincoln (for Sally's birthday party, yay!) (through bad thunderstorms, double yay!).

Anyway, bye bye. Have fun. Like I care.

++Nerwen

If I decide to read the thread tomorrow I hope to look back on today and see a huge war between Nerwen and Nog for who will be lynched. If that doesn't happen, then I'll.... do absolutely nothing.

Toodles.

So the phantom was unaware of a rule? Let me just not believe that. And in the meantime you seemed to be aware of the rule that there is a possibility that a stung one has a chance of her/his vote not counting (one I had totally forgotten).

And the phantom takes the "like I care" attitude. Now where's the wind blowing from?

Anyway, as I have another idea about what he is doing as well (even if still don't buy that explanation on Lottie - and it doesn't fit my view of what he is up to at all, but maybe for personal pride or something like that), I'm actually recommending we'd check this pair out by lynching Lottie rather than tp.

I mean if Lottie is a baddie we then lynch tp toMorrow (unless she was Shelob herself who picked tp as her first spiderling; not totally an unexpected choice ), and if she is not, there is a chance tp might help us in an unexpected way...

What say you?

I agree with all. And that I find most frightening.

True, but I can't change my ways because of how incredibly often it actually happens like that.

Oops. Not supposed to be talking. *shuts up*

Sorry. I had some frustrating problems with my mobile internet-card... Those are nice and handy but not too reliable.



Anyway. I decided to take first a look at yesterDay's voting as none had done that. And it is interesting. Here it is.

early vote Lhuna -> Lottie
- 2 hrs. Zil -> Lottie2
-.13 Lottie -> Zil
-.00 Fea -> Nog
-.00 Nog -> Lhuna
+.01 tp -> Zil2

Not voted Nerwen, Shasta, wilwa.

Now this tie looks like an interesting one. So did tp know the situation? Was it a deliberate tie and to what end? To save Lottie looks like the obvious reason (he has defended her all the game through I think), but saving an innocent or a bad Lottie?


If there were no baddies at stake yesterDay (near lynching), a tie would have been a bad idea to them as a no-lynch doesn't harvest our numbers.

If there was a baddie in danger, then they would have wished either to outvote the baddie or as the final reach create a tie.

Now of course there is an added factor, that one isn't quite sure if there will be others still voting (although on +.01 one should be quite sure).

So just asking you tp, why to go that far as to make it a no-lynch to save Lottie?


EDIT: X'd with pleasantly many...

A Lottie-lynch might yield some clues.

Hm. Two votes for Nerwen, who's been fairly enigmatic to me thus far. One for Lottie, and one for Nog.

x/d with tp- Why's he so apathetic all of a sudden?
