You know what I am afraid of? That we might still not have very many Wolves on this thread. It really looks like (also from e.g. the horrible failure of the innocents to organise to e.g. get a list for us done, among other things, and the players like Eomer or Morm who you'd expect to be wise just messing around and undermining such efforts) the Wolves are in fairly big strength out there. I hope they get some "kill each other" thing toNight. Would save us a lot of trouble. Speaking of Night-killing: there was one thing I've been wanting to say for ages about Boro. The claim that there is an assassin role makes a lot of sense - BECAUSE!!! - because we have the distinction of "prey" and "predator" on the Dead thread. Because I could easily imagine that an assassin role would be developed by Kuru with the idea that it's fairly strong role, but with the further contribution to the confusion that it might show as "predator", even if it's technically a "good guy".

I hope she is doing that to scare the wolves away and not to gloat...

Second thought: that would put it into a totally new perspective the post where she told Boro she trusts him to have the special role...
EDIT: aka. the exact same post, I see now...

Whichever the case, I think it is slowly time for me to vote and leave this thread for now (which I will this time really do in a matter of minutes. Dozens of minutes at most anyway ). So, Nilp, hope your darling stayed safe and sound during this Night, others, let's hope we have preferably two Wolfsies here in the morning (not that I'd enjoy the presence of two more trolls, but it at least means they can't terrorize the Living), and let's hope the Living don't keep us awake one more night, although I am fairly worried it might be just the case.

If the Unknown Role is a Werebear, I won't feel bad about helping him win, as per the rules he is not listed under "Baddie". Since the role is unspecified I count him on my side.
As a similar situation: it would be like having an Ordo villager but with a secret role of Killer Cobbler, and if he is left alive at end-game after all the Wolves are dead his power allows him to mass murder the other villagers. One could not blame the villagers for not lynching him because their directive is to lynch Wolves, therefore leaving the unknown Killer Cobbler alive would be functioning correctly as Goodies (i.e. it would be wrong for the innocent to lynch someone that is not listed as enemy nor suspected as enemy etc.). Thus, if the game continues even after everyone suspects all the Wolves are Dead, I will continue helping Boro.

This thread is simply turning into a music-sharing thread. I'm sure our Mod is upset we aren't discussing Werebears and such.
In other news, sports.

Ooo, ooo, we have loads of info now after that!
Wait- we shouldn't be smiling about Nerwen being dead, heh. Also, the Living now know they can ask about not only the Dead, but the Living. At least I HOPE they realize that. Okay, Nerwen- what are the facts? (Particularly any facts you discovered during the Night.)

Huzzah!
Well... unless there was one kill because Sally got ranger-protected, which I suppose is likely. Anyway, welcome to the other side, Nerwen. |

Greetings, fellow-corpses!
First things first- Formendacil and Mormegil are wolves. Dreamed them last Night.

Didn't see that coming - I was sure Morm was innocent.
Nice ruse, though. You had a lot of people (me included) going with that pm gimmick. |

Well, that escalated quickly.
Three known Baddies in a diurnal cycle... now I really hope I can get back.

Now I'd better do some reading, hadn't I? I hope those villagers were paying attention.

So we only have one more unknown wolf, right? Well...
I'll bet all of you that the Dead thread gets to 1050 posts before the living thread gets to 775. If we do, you get the name of one of my packmates. If we don't, I get to pick the next Night's scrying target out of four options approved of by general consensus. What do you say?

I believe Lottie just said she'd reward us for a filibuster.

Well, if the Wolves punt (go for known innocents) instead of going for first down (Sally), we're in a good position for a punt return touchdown.
(Am I doing this right??? This hand-egg thing is still somewhat nebulous to me.) Speaking of nebulous... assuming phantom's list is correct, there's still a Wolf among (Dead) Nogrod, Rikae, (Living) Mith, McCaber, and Kath.

So actually, it would be in our best interests today if the Living didn't manage to come up with a list for us, so we could just cast our doubling vote for someone who votes for Form or morm. Undoubtedly they will be much more on top of their game though and leave us no way to communicate the intended message...

Well, I'm glad Mith jumped out and suggested they get their rears in gear this time in terms of making a voting list.
But again- I'm worried they won't remember that they can ask us about the Living seeing as we have Nerwen here. Now technically we should be able to trust them to figure it out, but they haven't proven trustworthy. Nerwen- you probably should've said "I will dream of X and Y. You WILL ask the Dead about them tomorrow if I'm not here. You WILL make your voting list nice & early. You WILL NOT hold your vote until the final hour!" We must treat children as children, yes?

This is just the scenario I had in mind when I designed the first Mandos game: the dead know several wolves and are desperate to get that info to the living.
I anticipated that it would be very frustrating for them, and very entertaining for me as the mod. Anyway, Lottie's packmates are probably all dead or revealed, but I say we take her up on it so we can have more music & comedy (sports are optional). |

Perhaps if the Living see our post count going crazy and see that it's always Nerwen posting they'll think to themselves, "Ooo, perhaps she has something to say?"

Presumably! But wouldn't it be nice to know for sure?

It did take the Living five hours to get from the top of page 17 to the top of page 18 in their thread...
