Well THANK YOU, Living thread. Didn't take you long at all.

As a fellow Warg-enthusiast, and my cousin, I am uneasy about him being the 'shot in the dark.'

Is this directed at Lommy? Wasn't Eomer suspicious of him?

the phantom · 06-08-2015, 05:49 PM

Btw, we didn't botch the Dead Thread bonus vote the first day, it's just that Nog kept wanting to vote for Lalaith and I didn't, plus I knew we had zero impact on the outcome and zero information to signal.

Basically we didn't agree and I (maybe we) didn't care enough to make it work. The no-empowerment result was rather good in my book.

Yes, if it's allowed of course I'm willing to cast your vote, my lion.

People keep not wanting to vote for Nilp (signalling our true information), but I'm willing to thus far. I mean- Sally just defended him again, and he's been her leading Lover suspect from her very first post (of course that could be a clever ploy, but we noted it on the very first day that those two might be Lovers).

Legate of Amon Lanc · 06-08-2015, 05:54 PM

Okay okay, enough of this (sorry Mac, you asked for it

)

I am just worried now that what if we really do influence the lynch in some bad way now if we vote for Nilp... I mean what is worse, not passing info to the Living or totally messing up vote!

But I've been thinking here too long, apparently...

Thank you! Votes of gold are always cold but a phantom's votes are warm.
Kuru, if you don't allow this and I've stayed up for nothing, I'll find out where you live and spraypaint ++KURUHARAN on the facade. Not that I'd dare to threaten our esteemed mod, sorry if it came across that way. Puppy eyes.

And I can now sign off happily and get some 5+ hours of sleep. (Even if somebody texts me I probably won't wake up.)

Aganzir · 06-08-2015, 06:01 PM

(Also I burst out laughing whenever Lommy says "morm and Form". Yeah I know I'm tired but it makes me think they're Tweedledum and Tweedledee.)

Legate of Amon Lanc · 06-08-2015, 06:01 PM

Fine. On my head it be, apparently.

++Nilp

Well! Managed to vote two hours since I've said I'm gonna go in 15 minutes, look at that. I am slowly overtaking Nogrod's place. (I envy the man. He is happily cozy in his bed, not aware at all of the concerns of humankind. Er, deadkind.)

I implore those of you who are going to stay awake: be sensible.

Good night.

Come on you people, I'm waiting!

Nilp 1, Shasta 2, Nerwen 1

That sounds like what Nog said to your schemes on Day 1.

Anyway, of course I wouldn't dare to insult you by implying you might be sensible! Far from it!

G'night!

Among others... Which is why I said it. Can't resist poking a bit of fun.

And I've seen a couple Living talking about voting Eomer?! Wasn't he taken off the list by the Seer?

Firefoot · 06-08-2015, 06:20 PM

Jeez, this is a nightmare.

I'm fine with voting for Nilp to convey accurate information, or Nerwen to potentially convey no information. Just so we're not giving them wrong information.

Lommy is swinging wildly back and forth in my estimation... good for her for getting this going, and I fully support her McCaber vote, but changing the scheme like that was awful.

the phantom · 06-08-2015, 06:26 PM

But of course LoverSally just listed McCaber as most innocent (along with herself and Nerwen).

I say again- if the other Lover and the Ranger haven't already been dreamed then they have no excuse not to speak out and remove themselves from the debate. Lack of information is not remotely helpful.

the phantom · 06-08-2015, 06:34 PM

Back in 20-30 minutes. No worries if I'm not responding.

Rikae · 06-08-2015, 07:00 PM

If Nilp gets empowered, it should really involve an anime gif.

Kuruharan · 06-08-2015, 07:09 PM

I'm sorry, giving your vote to another person for them to use is not allowed.

I know the deadline is hard on the Europeans and I am very sorry about that.

If only the earth was flat...

Macalaure · 06-08-2015, 07:12 PM

Thank you for the ruling, oh mod.

Rikae · 06-08-2015, 07:19 PM

Oh, come on.

You guys HAVE to empower Nilp's vote to Nilp himself. It's just too perfect.

It would make for a GREAT narration.

the phantom · 06-08-2015, 07:21 PM

If you are around make yourself known immediately-Lalaith, Rune, or Agan.

But more than likely they are asleep, leaving Firefoot and I with the two known Wolves.

Firefoot- is there any point whatsoever in voting Nerwen? It wouldn't signal accurate info and the lynch is as good as settled after Nilp self-voted, right?

I'd love to empower his self-vote (for entertainment sake).

Firefoot · 06-08-2015, 07:23 PM

I agree, I think a Nilp vote is our best bet. I really hope there's someone else around, otherwise the village is getting wrong information tonight, I think. Their own fault, really.

the phantom · 06-08-2015, 07:25 PM

We'd better hold our votes for the moment in case anyone shows up.

the phantom · 06-08-2015, 07:34 PM

Well, Mac and Lottie- can we make an agreement on the value of humor?

(i.e. empowering a suicide vote)

the phantom · 06-08-2015, 07:41 PM

The Living suck. Less than 20 minutes to go and I think five still haven't voted.

Firefoot · 06-08-2015, 07:43 PM

Yeah, this village is terrible.

the phantom · 06-08-2015, 07:51 PM

Mac, Lottie- you two still there?

Nilp's got four now. Want to empower his self-vote just to see how Kuru narrates it?

Firefoot · 06-08-2015, 07:53 PM

*whispers* Maybe they'll miss the vote...

Firefoot · 06-08-2015, 07:54 PM

Are we gaining anything by holding out at this point?

the phantom · 06-08-2015, 07:55 PM

They're probably sitting there with two or three posting windows open, prepared to vote for multiple candidates.

Come on, you two, just go with the humor thingummy for today.

the phantom · 06-08-2015, 07:55 PM

Why are the Living holding out? (and not even talking?)

the phantom · 06-08-2015, 07:57 PM

Vote is settled. Nilp is dead.

the phantom · 06-08-2015, 07:59 PM

Can only post every 30 seconds, so may as well cast votes now.

Firefoot · 06-08-2015, 07:59 PM

++Nilp

Loslote · 06-08-2015, 07:59 PM

++Shasta

the phantom · 06-08-2015, 08:00 PM

It's the village's fault if the vote is messed up. Like someone already said.
