WW XC: Lord of the Rings 2: The Quest For More Money

[Bom Tombadillo]

Oi oi oi! All I was saying was that you were far, far, far more defensive about it than seems normal to me - something that makes you look wolfish in my eyes. After all, wolves have more to lose if they die.

And yes, I do think I can get away with joking around with clever names - I've seen it happen. Not like I'm saying "Boromir88 is a wolf! Let's lynch him!" or anything, is it?

And finally, I don't expect people to be able to distinguish my jokes particularly well, just to be less inclined to go for my throat about them than you have been.

EDIT: X'd with Eomer. Nice comparison.

I think I just heard him say this...

*tries to headdesk, realizes he's not at a desk, and settles for a facepalm*

I don't think you're that stupid, so that's probably a deliciously bad joke.

[Eomer of the Rohirrim]

Eh... Fitiver's gan on here will mak for some good readin' imorn. That's why I leave Bom and Boro.

There's probably a wolf who's said nothing other than character posts yet, so I'll pick one of them. Back in a minty.

[Eomer of the Rohirrim]

Sally fits the criteria (oh wow, I never find her suspicious or anything... ), as does Glirdan. I'm totally aware that I myself fit my own criteria of not adding anything to the discussion....

...until now

Sorry Glirdan, but just not enough from you today. And the first vote is always a safe one. Chances are you're a busy innocent but, because no-one else is really jumping out at me, you're acting the conservative wolf.

Yeah, I suppose it's bad that I only realised that Sally had posted when I checked the post-count. Totally under my radar.

I went away for what I thought to be one hour and ended up being about four hours. I'm catching up (there's very little to catch up on, though. This is suspiciously quiet!)

I'd say neither. I will refrain on making any opinion on Glirdy until he has the chance to actually say something.

I agree with this.

Because we are playing wereWOLF, not wereACTOR.

An ordo can also not want to be modfired. I don't see how this points to wolvery.

The BoroBom thing is... interesting. In a not very good way. I can't say anything for sure for either one of them (who can, on D1?... except for wolves, that is), but they both seem to be making an elephant out of a fly.

[Bom Tombadillo]

To Inzilarond: I'm not so surprised at the force with which I've been attacked - that's a common reaction to me.

And no, you didn't miss anything. The "more than three wolves" comment was about that very joke-suspicion list having more than three people looking guilty.

EDIT: X'd with the last two posters.

[Boromir88]

Granted I could have said what I wanted to a bit more kindly, but gotta learn at some point. Everyone's different and maybe others don't mind, but I've seen too many people get lynched on what were so-called jokes, and no one should expect to say whatever they want and not be questioned or challenged by it. Innocent intended jokes or not, I still know some things Bom is not.

. . . You know I was actually happy to be in this movie? :But now I've half a mind to go postal on the lot of you! Killers and innocents alike, all dead . . . except for me of course. *sits a moment in utter glee*

But I suppose it's my job to protect you idiots. Ah well.

This voting idea sounds good t'me; I'd like to vote for Lottierector for getting us into this mess.

First post. Might seem rather glib, and threatening to kill everyone was not really something to earn trust....

On a less joke-y note, G55 looks . . . not suspicious, but unusual, to me. More gifted than wolf, it seems. Awfully fast to be making such a judgment, I know, but that's more or less normal for me.

This raised some eyebrows, since it's generally not a good idea to trumpet that one sees a potential Gifted, at least not a good idea for the innocents. As a baddie, though, what would this gain him but suspicion? He could have simply let his mates know the next Night.

In other news . . . well, I do specialize in daring Day 1 declarations.

Oh dear, I seem to have become one of the alliterati. And with D, too! I prefer C, thank you.

*ahem* AS I was going to say before I was rudely interrupted by myself (several times, even!) my mind seems to be on the more, as Nerwen says, talented actors. (translation: it seems like anybody and everybody is dropping hints that they're Gifted. Including, in retrospect . . .



myself). So you'll excuse me if I make a few incautious comments about such.

Hm. Excuses an apparent Gifted fixation with a belief that many are throwing out hints, not just him.

Well, since it's list-making time:

I am innocent by virtue of being me.
Sally is innocent by virtue of being amusing.
G55 is innocent-ish by virtue of being interesting and better left alive to be studied. Also, by virtue of complimenting me (see above).
Eomer of the Scothirrim is innocent by virtue of being amusing.
As far as the guilty go:
Boromir88 is guilty by virtue of attacking the Scot.
Nerwen is guilty by virtue of disliking something I said.
Shasta is guilty by virtue of not liking yours truly.
Eonwe is guilty by virtue of thinking I'm in the wrong role.
Inziladun is guilty by virtue of agreeing with Nerwolf.
Lottierector is guilty by virtue of having more than three wolves.
And finally, everybody else is guilty by virtue of escaping my notice.

A suspicion list that doesn't look to be all that serious. But what's that about there being more than three wolves? Did I miss something?

Originally Posted by Bom Tombadillo

I think so, yes. Care to tell me why you're going to vote me? (So I can try to talk you out of it?)

Well, mustn't get too worked up about people latching on to me. (That seems to be becoming a theme of my games . . .) If nothing else happens, I'll probably return Shasta's favor.

EDIT: X'd with Wolfomir88.

A response to Shasta, who'd threatened to vote him.

. . .

That's actually made me more suspicious, by the way. A wolf would be more watchful for potential accusations against himself, would he not?

I'm not sure I get his meaning on the latter bit. There are a couple of ways it could be interpreted.

I will agree with him that the vehemence with which Boro has gone after him seems a bit out of proportion.

I don't think you're that stupid, so that's probably a deliciously bad joke.

A response to McCaber's apparently joking about him saying Boro was a wolf.

Conclusions? He seems a bit carefree and fearless if he's a wolf, but does come off as a little defensive. Then again, as I said, the force with which some have decided to go after him makes me wonder.

x/d with Steve and Eomer
