I have to go. I'll be back home in a couple hours or so.

Someone do me a favor and look over Boro's posts to see if there are any clues at all that hint at a Gifted role other than Elendil. I've found one potential clue- in his first four sentences, the first letter sentence 1 is "A", third letter sentence 2 is "N", fifth letter sentence 3 is "A", seventh letter sentence 4 is "R". And "Anar" of course means "sun" and is the root of the name Anarion.

Is there anything else?

Anyway, gotta go. Please try not to vote until I'm back so that I can catch up easily.

One last thing- Nerwen, if you're specifically Anarion, I think a full reveal is the only way to go. If not, then it's in the village's hands later today...

See everyone in a bit.

With a quick skim, I didn't see anything in particular.

I have to leave in a minute myself, and I have stuff to do today.
That said, I'll be around a good deal. Let me know, phantom and Brinn, when you think is the best time for Amandil's heir to be outed. Others' opinions are welcome, but they won't necessarily be followed.

I'm awake. Dun, now's as good a time as any (for sleepy little me anyway).

satansaloser2005 · 12-02-2012, 10:59 AM

Grrrr. I have to leave again, and I'll not be back but for scraps for a couple of hours. Keep on the up, up, up, up, and even more up while I'm gone, will you all?

Mänwe · 12-02-2012, 11:20 AM

Well there's me taking a look at Lottie and then this happens- will have to read back through everything with all this in mind now.

the phantom · 12-02-2012, 12:20 PM

I notice that most people seem unwilling to name what they believe is the KM-pack. Is that because you don't know whether to trust Lottie?

Then how about this. Make a list of three if she's innocent, and a list for if she's guilty.

Sally, Manwe, Morsul, Steve- it's you we need to hear from. Lay out your top three suspects please.

Should I do this too?

Honestly, I don't even think you have to, seeing as no one challenged your claim. If the person comes under fire then of course you can step in, but for now may as well sit on it, right?

Ok then, if she's innocent;

Nerwen
Steve
Morsul

If she's not innocent

Lottie
Morsul
Steve

But i'm still not set on Sally wholly so her and Morsul could be interchangeable.

edit: x'd with the above

Sounds good to me phantom, simple and the reveals have worked relatively well so far.

Not a problem. Actually, I did quite a bit of number-crunching in the wee hours about exactly this.

If Lottie's evil:
Lottie
Morsul
Nerwen (if Lottie is playing boldly)

If Lottie's innocent:
Nerwen
Morsul
Steve
