Hey. I am here. Had cinema issues.

Quick note having read the narration - I don't think it's a surprise Volo was killed. When I was posting about him yesterDay I kept having freak-outs that his weird behaviour could be Seerish. Least we got lucky with him being the Cobbler rather than the actual Seer!

Reading through now.

Well, I'm back. I agree that, with so many votes for Rikae already, we need to avoid a last-minute flurry. I'll go ahead and vote now, then...

++Nerwen

I assume you can see why, judging from my previous posts.

And I might hang around, or I might disappear in five minutes - I actually don't know which is going to happen.

Well, crud. I'm actually able to stick around ToNight, but events haven't made deciding on a vote especially easy.

I have no intention of voting Rikae. I can't see her acting as she did as a Wizard. Leave her to the Seer.

Thing is I've ragequit before but when I did I PMEd the mod and asked to be. Now obviously that doesnt mean Rikae couldn't go the ingame route but if she was deadset on ragequitting why not just take herself out of the game then we wouldn't be spending so much time in this.

Only a wizard wins with this much confusion.
I just don't agree, and it looks to me more like you're backpedaling now.

This strikes me as odd, mainly because it reminds me of things I've said as a baddie to "explain" a Night-kill.

x/d with all since #384

Oh, and, really - what the bleep does the wizard of Oz have to do with me being a Cobbler? Is it that Oz could be like Ozban? Was that it?

This voting is flipping ridiculous, people. Stop spreading out the votes and focus.

Off to see the wizard, I'd suspect.

But I'm watching my prince very closely now, because that seems shifty.

Question about the Rikae debacle: has she actually quit? 'Cause if she has we're down another player assuming Bane is modkilled toDay. And if she has quit when will her death occur. ToNight? ToMorrow's end of Day? Having dead weight hanging round without knowing the role will be irritating for trying to work out roles. How many wizards are we after, if the Seer (assuming she isn't it) is lynched/killed are there Gifted's left to be aware of etc.

And finally thoughts next.

Looking over days 1 and 2, I see Nog defended Pom early after her Cop-wagon remark and on day 2, explained his last minute vote as an attempt to see if a "Prince Charming" would rescue her, which would be a "jackpot".

This makes no sense, though. If Pom had been saved, we wouldn't know her role. He doesn't claim he was very confident that she was evil, only that he was "okay" with lynching her. He also explains how it would have benefited him as a baddie to wolf-on-wolf vote at that point, which is true, but he also could have anticipated that his vote would look like too obvious a rescue attempt to be evil, excusing it.

Yep. I explained why I found them generally less suspicious, too. You seemed, throughout the game, unwilling to get your hands dirty.

And actually, I didn't put Nerwen in the iffy list at all.

I don't think she's actually quit; she just assumed she'll be lynched.
