Agreeing with Gal on this point. She seems a bit.. frivolous? I mean, she makes me giggle a lot, but she's twitchier than usual which makes me nervous.

I won't make a proper list right now, but so far I'm worried about Lommy and Mac, and a little about Gal. Feeling relatively OK about Rikae and Volo.

Yay for super short meeting! Should be able to still comment here and there until the end of the Day.

Day 1 is almost always a bandwaggon from what I recall, and judging by the large number of us with "Fenris" in our sig it is very possible to have a successful lynch Day 1.

And with Mac's comment, did he perhaps just mean that the numbers were on Skip's side in the sense that they supported the argument he was making? Weird wording, but might not be anything. Need to go back and find that post.

x'ed with a bunch...

Does anyone think this is a bit far-fetched defence? Mac clearly said the numbers "maybe" were on Skip's side but...

Lovers? Would be a Bear and a Maiden Fair indeed...

I hadn't read skip's original post when I made the above comment, I didn't know the context. Just found it and from reading it I honestly have no clue what Mac was trying to say. I've re-read it like 10 times and it doesn't really make sense. Wish he had provided more clarification for it.

And thanks for the compliment Noggins

Gah. Not leaving it to the last minute. Too unsure about Wilwa and unwilling to do a complete throwaway so -

Seer down in Night 2? Wow.

Well, at least we have something to work with, I guess. Lots to analyze toDay:
Who might Wilwa have dreamt of?
Did anything she say give us a lead towards the lovers?
What leads can we take from Galadriel's death?
What can we learn from the ever so slightly messed up voting yesterDay?
(in no particular order)

I'll get working on that, but let me get that "your side" thing out of the way first. No idea why I wrote "your" instead of "our", to be honest. I tried to track it back, and the best I can think of is that I was referring to Skip's "WW is a game of numbers and the way I see things, the numbers favour a quick reveal.", which I didn't quote, but which came from the same post that I did quote. So I guess I must've been thinking about "his" numbers-comment when I wrote "your" numbers instead of "our".

When I voted and left yesterDay, I thought my "don't lynch me" comment might've been a bit over the top... but you guys almost did kill me! Not cool.

wilwa is quite relaxed given she's in danger of being lynched. A Wolf would be more concerned.

Noggie, I'll play along...

Referring to my previous post. Or if wilwa were a wolf, she still had pack mates to defend her...

*cough* I'm about to drown on a bottle of water... :S What is dead may never... no never mind.

Gah, I don't know and I don't trust any of you. I ought to string you all up!

Because I know he'd be smart enough to deflect any complaints about bandwagon-jumping.
