TIG XCIV– WHere the Stars Are Strange (Game thread)

[A Little Green]

Legate is weird. His reaction to Steve's reveal has, I think, been discussed in sufficient length already. In addition to that, the following made my radars beep:

I know it might be just an odd phrasing, but it looks like his "conflicting opinions" were something he had thought were supposed to be the sign of an innocent, if you get what I mean.

I'm very undecided about Lommy, who's so confused it looks both very innocentish (a wolf would, surely, have more than enough material by now to legitly suspect anyone she wished, or else keep us distracted with any number of unrelated topics) and evil (I could see a Lommywolf refraining from accusing people on the grounds of being confused; playing it safe, in other words). I'm more inclined to lean towards the first scenario, though.

I remember thinking yesterDay that Nog's wolvery makes Boro look shinier; don't remember what that referred to but I'm sure I'll find it.

I'm still halfway through a cursory re-read of the entire thread, will try to get that done in a few and see if something catches my eye.


EDIT: x-ed with Lommy and Shasta

I don't think an innocent who logically cannot know I'm innocent would be able to read me and Nogrod's interactions with such lack of suspicion to my direction, whatever the final conclusion. Just sayin'.

If this comes from a Lommywolf, my hat's off to her. Made me feel better about her, anyway; I don't think a wolf would come up with a point like that (objectively evaluating one's own communication with a packmate is pretty hard) and if she would, it'd take some guts to say it aloud. In short, feeling a tad better about Lommy.


EDIT: x-ed since my last

Err - you do know that the exact same thing applies to yourself as well? The only difference between us with regards to Steve's case against Nog was that I had to vote and go to sleep immediately after it.

Exactly, Greenie. Which is actually pretty funny since Legate has gotten all the suspicion (at least mine) until now. I could do some looking at your posts.

Eönwë and Lottie - after what we've seen toDay, do you really believe Shasta and Legate could be in the same wolf team?

Btw Eönwë since not many people answered your question, I agree with whoever it was (Zil?) who said the best time to reveal the dream would be before European bedtime today.

It would be insanely bold, but whoever survived would look very good. How much did Shasta suspect Legate before toDay? It could be the wolves decided that, since Legate was likely to be lynched for his suspicious reaction to Steve's dream, Shasta might as well come out of it looking very good.

Now, I'm not saying that this is necessarily what I think, but it is a possiblity I'm considering.

EDIT: xed with Legate

Of course I am aware of that. The difference is that I know I am innocent. And because I am innocent, I have no fear of saying what I think, even if it incriminates me.

It was me, thank you. Twice.

Legate: Yes, I might react with disbelief. I would, however, check the facts BEFORE I posted anything. Especially since a big chunk of your distrust of Eonwe had in fact come from his outburst against Nog in the same morning. I would think, okay, so this guy is trying to seem a seer. I don't trust him. Why do I not trust him? I don't trust you, Legate because of how you acted in the Eonwe-case. If you'd now tell me you're a seer I would definitely reevaluate since in that case you'd have a good reason not to believe him.

And on Greenie: no surprise she has been so un-suspected. She has made a couple of sharp points (but wolves are capable of doing that). Biggest reason for her apparent innocence is the fact that she has had to leave early every Day, which has made her votes harder to read. I'm not saying that she's a wolf (far from that, though I'm not giving her the certain pr probable innocence either), but I'm glad she'll be around more today, so that maybe we can get a bit more material on her.

[Eönwë]

I'm most likely voting Legate toDay, but I think first I'm going to look through all his posts- he's made it hard though, having the highest post count by quite a bit.

It's a possibility. Very brave, very dangerous, but if pulled off could be very successful. I mean, since the end of yesterDay it would be clear that they would both be under heavy suspicion (Shasta for his acolyte-stuff and Legate for his anti-seer sentiment and then his 180 which looks like it was made to just appear good). Like I said before, it's the whole splitting the village into two sides, when really it's all under the banner of a wolf (like false competition in the business world). I can see Shasta being up for it, but I don't know about Legate.

Though first you suggested waiting until the end of the Day.
