That was a crazy end to Day 1. After talk of fake votes we then end up with a fake reveal! At least the village might be quieter with the Cobbler gone, but I dread to think how many QT posts there will end up being ...
As to why Rikae for the Night kill, I would assume the wolves were gunning for someone they thought might be the Seer. It would seem foolish for them not to always be aiming for a Gifted. Trying to set up frame jobs is all well and good in theory but their aim surely has to be to get rid of the greatest danger towards them. Just going through yesterDay's votes. Have skimmed toDay but not read properly so sorry if things have already been mentioned/answered. YesterDay's vote tally - I've put known roles in bold in the votes themselves, otherwise I've bolded as normal when talking about it: Lhuna -> Lhuna Rikae -> Brinniel (For immediately repeating 2 of 3 names from my list as suspicions, and then backtracking explicitly to avoid getting caught in a trap right after I explained to G55 that my post was intended as a wolf trap.) ~ Rikae Quote:
G55 -> Rikae Boro -> Pitchwife Urwen -> G55 Pitchwife -> Brinniel 2 Kath -> G55 2 Shasta -> Pitchwife 2 (I'm jerking the reins a bit here) ~ Shasta I'd be interested to know a bit more about this vote, Shasta. This vote created a three way tie at the time between Pitch, G55 and Brinn. It's certainly consistent with his earlier suspicions, I just wonder why Pitch over Brinn at this point, especially with the comment at the point of vote as well. Quote:
Kitanna -> Pitchwife 3 Inzil -> G55 3 Same issue - this was cross posted. So Inzil didn't know Kit had made it 3 for Pitch at the time he made it 3 for G55. So really, this is the vote that technically first took someone into the lead for the lynch. Quote:
Lottie -> G55 4 Not a cross posted vote and so knows this vote puts G55 into prime position for the lynch. Quote:
Quote:
Quote:
Quote:
Greenie -> Macalaure Cross posted with the previous 4 votes. So at this point, Greenie thought Brinn and G55 had 2, Rikae, Pitch and Lhuna had one. An interesting point at which to throw in a new name. It's for coming up with an argument against Brinn sort of on the spot and then backdating said argument to an earlier post, I think. It's interesting coming after her earlier post: Quote:
Quote:
THE Ka -> Brinniel 3 Ok, not a cross posted vote so knows G55 is already on 4. She seemed to be debating between Brinn and Lottie. Quote:
Quote:
Eönwë -> Urwen I don't like this vote, just as I didn't like Urwen's in the first place. He talks about Zil, Brinn and Lommy all being suspicious, and then plumps for someone totally unrelated. 13 votes had been cast with 8 remaining at this point. No one liked Urwen's vote, but did Eonwe really think this was going somewhere? Rune -> Brinniel 4 Rune said this was cross posted with everyone from 244. I would like to know if that includes 244 because that was Kit's vote for Brinn. Is Rune pushing up Brinn to tie with G55 here or did he not know that? Lommy -> G55 5 No cross voting so knew she was putting G55 into the lead and adds the comment: Quote:
Hui -> G55 6 Hui clearly stated he wanted to avoid Brinn getting lynched and so chose G55 because she had the higher vote tally. It's a bold statement to make at a point where no roles were known. What made him think Brinn was definitely worth saving? Legate -> Brinniel 5 Out of the options, which by now are realistically Brinn, G55, Pitch - definitely Brinn. Earlier thought Pitch might be Cobbler and thought G55 was playing in her usual style. Kitanna would have been his fake vote. By the time it got to real voting, this would have been a real throwaway so not going with it does make sense. Brinn is the highest up in his suspicions list so this vote does seem logical. Mac -> Brinniel 6 Not a cross post, knows he's tying Brinn, knows this doesn't mean she's the lynch. Brinn -> G55 7 Little to read from 'I have to save myself'. An innocent knows they're an innocent, doesn't know what G55 is, has to save themselves. A wolf knows they're guilty, knows G55 is an innocent, has to save themselves! Sally -> Brinniel 7 This was the only vote after the reveal and again little to read from it. An innocent would be desperate to save the Ranger, a wolf would be desperate to be seen that they were trying to save the Ranger. Lalaith - no vote Lal, in the interests of the fact that the Day could have ended really differently, who would you have voted for there? I know it's with hindsight, but would still be interesting!

I believe I was aware of post 244 prior to starting typing. However when I cast my vote I was not aware of the exact number of votes for each person. I hope that answers your question.

Oh my goodness RL stuff has meant time has really got away from me toDay. This is going to have to be quicker than I would like.
Rikae surely had to be a suspected Gifted kill, I simply can't see the point of it otherwise, so all these 'I'm being framed' theories make no sense to me. Mac thinking he's being framed, Inzil thinking there could be a frame related to Brinn, Brinn suggesting it was a frame on her Quote:

Can I now say "let's make this more interesting"? ![]() But seriously though, someone's gotta start, and it might as well be me since I have a clear main suspect and he's had a chance to defend himself but I didn't really buy it. Will continue to pop in and out until the DL! edit: xed with Legate

Ideally, I would've voted Inzil or Kit for the reasons I mentioned yesterDay. But between Pitch and G55, yes I would've preferred Pitch as I thought him more suspicious than her.

I have spent more time on WW than my actual job today. Oops. I get done an hour before DL and hope to get more analysis done then.

I’m not really getting the hint they had a belief in Rikae being a gifted such as a Seer, but possibly another gifted role and barring that, settled with if Rikae was an innocent then they’d want them out of the way to play on other’s bias of who was most critical of them (sans G55) and knowing that there might not be another innocent who'd engage as eagerly with Rikae (thus causing some bait to see who would be an easy pick) in an argument. Quote:
So, why does Mac want to be a point of attention? Who benefits from Mac’s performance is really what I’m wondering. Quote:
Ranger is arguably one of the more key gifted roles next to Seer. You’d want to remain concealed as much as possible in order to see from the game Day who you need to protect that Night. If someone pretends to be your role? Oh well. You can’t immediately go after them the next Day in game without drawing obvious attention. G55 throwing out there last minute about ‘But I’m a Ranger!’ was as duping delight as a cobbler could get.

Ok I wasn't going to say anything about The Kit Thing but seeing as it's being openly discussed - *glares at certain people* -
Could the people who are still putting Kit in the 'slightly/fairly' suspicious category please explain to me - how would a Kitwolf know G55 was lying about being a Ranger? All a Kitwolf would know was that G55 was not a wolf.

I could vote Hui, but I would prefer Inzil. Feeling less sure about Mac - his latest posts feel okay, but I keep going back and forth on this.

Hey whatever. I may just as well do something on time for once, and offer some options.
++Huinesoron And perhaps not only the votes themselves, but also the current "setup of bandwagons" may get us some information.

Okay, I've snatched a few minutes. To the people suspicious of me - it seems like most of this comes out of my misreading/over-simplifying things? I've taken the concrit on board, and will make sure to read more carefully toMorrow. (I have a bad habit of semi-skimming over bits of posts, and then forgetting that there was anything between the first and last points to catch my eye.) I welcome the scrutiny - all you'll find is that I've tried my best to follow the evidence.
ToMorrow is the weekend; not sure how that'll affect my posting, but I'll definitely try to answer any questions about my thinking. (And to whoever said I sound like a salesman - probably! I've spent the past five or six years routinely sending emails with 'thank you, and best regards' at the end, it's a hard habit to break!) Checking for cross-posts... okay, I got a vote, and I'm bad for Mac's blood pressure, but ultimately I don't see anything to change my stated intention (specifically including, nothing in Mac's post (last second edit: posts) allays my worries). So since I now have to go: ++Macalaure hS |

On Lhuna...
Her smaller posts with shorter comments look innocent. Bringing up points about a ranger reveal and wondering why Lottie felt the need to say if Kit's a wolf and faking, the real ranger should not reveal. Her longer posts looking at individuals and her suspects makes me more wary. To save Rune's eyes (a sentiment I try to agree with but doesn't always happen). I'll just link the post here.. I'm having trouble following what she's actually suspicious of Lommy of other than a comment when voting "let's make this interesting." Then it's just "You would know. Tricksy. False." Then her post before her vote...here Has Lommy in the suspects list, but there's no input. I'm having a lot of trouble figuring out why Lhuna found Lommy suspicious at all.

Nice and concise post, also you make a valid point about Lhuna mentioning Lommy early on, but actually giving us basically nothing prior to the vote. I will consider moving her to the neutral category on my epic list. |

I might not be able to stay until the deadline, so probably my final thoughts:
Very bad Huin, Greenie Maybe bad Lommy Not sure about Lhuna, Loslote, Brinniel, Boro, Sally, Lalaith - I forgot to look at Lalaith! Probably not bad Inzil, Legate, Shasta, Rune, Eonwe Likely not bad Pitch, THE Ka, Kath |

I'm just saying that if both Mac and I survive toDay I'm going to have the same headcahe toMorrow as I do toDay.

Ugh. I don't like the choices on this lynch list. Not particularly suspicious of any of them.
Brinn would be my least worst choice but it sticks in the craw to have my vote dictated by a cobbler. If I vote for Legate will I be throwing away my vote?

Of those who currently have votes. I do not want to vote Lommy, Inzil or Huey.
I'm perturbed by Lhuna, quite a lot. Despite the bad feelings, I always worry about voting for someone and starting a bandwagon against someone unable to be here to "defend" xemself. Even though, based on Lhuna's own logic 1 vote a bandwagon does not make. I'm probably giving too much consideration to the QT vote of Brinn. As others have said G55 wouldn't know Brinn's allegiance either way, so could just be an attempt to throw us off. I've said nothing about Mac, because everyone else has said quite a lot. He looks the suspicious and paranoid part and then he doesn't. His vote for Lommy doesn't feel right, but could be from I just don't find Lommy suspicious.
