I want to hear more from Mac before voting him.

Sally has said little of substance. Noggie gives more substance, but I find of what he does say, I tend to disagree with more. Of all the candidates so far, he's the one who gives me the biggest wolfish vibe. A feeling is not much, but it's all I can really offer. I don't have time to give it more thought, and I wouldn't mind at all seeing him lynched.

Oh boy, I'm gonna be late to my appointment...

I do not intend to post only once a day this game. I mentioned in the admin thread that my first day or two would be full, and werewolf (as much as I would like it to be so) is not at the top of my priority list. My thought on Strongbow is nothing more than a nebulous idea. (I still haven't read the whole game)

Well, I really didn't have much to go on about who to vote for, but it was mainly the fact that he didn't expalin much about why he suspected me when I asked him about it that troubled me.

And I'm still waiting to hear what you found regarding Nogrod, Fea, as are all of us. If you found something suspicious, I think everyone deserves to hear it.

So, of those who have votes I might go with Fea or Ilya. I might be more likely to go for Ilya because I know how good Fea can be in these games if given a chance - however, I'm not sure I can handle another Fea/phantom extravaganza.

Boromir, you're being one of my favorite people right now.

One of these days somebody should host a game that consists solely of me, the phantom, and Boro. That would be great...

Boro- what do you think about all these Nog votes? I'm extremely surprised.

Do you think that tomorrow we should probably vote for someone who voted for him? Especially if he ends up lynched?

Given. But retaliating with that as the only reason is suspicious. At least to me.


However, I do hate a double lynch. Lesser (or greater, in this case, I hope) of two evils must prevail, because if we're wrong about one person we can handle that but if we're wrong about two people that could be....erm, well, bad, obviously.

Thus....

Depends upon if this turns out how I think it will, I will say I don't want Nog lynched today. Don't forget about retractables.

On the one hand I wouldn't want to vote Mac because it's so long since he last played, but on the other hand he's a bit more suspicious than Nog... Garr I can't decide. I don't want to vote either of them.

I have no good reasoning for this. Maybe it's just his style, but his posts strike me as kinda...off? contrived? abrasive? I dunno. I can't shake the feeling, though, and it's not fair to Gollum, who did post more than once a day, or Nog or Menel who're on my radar because other people put them there.

Forgot to say that Menel's last post makes me feel a tad better about him, which is why I tipped the scale toward Noggie. Besides, I'd like to see more from Menel before I/we kill him.

Nog: 4
Menel: 2
Ilya: 2


(And I suppose that should have been stated as an attempt to prevent a triple or more lynch, not a double, they way things may be going. Bah. Nothing more I can do now, except head off to lunch and hope I did the right thing.)

x'd since my last

Okay, yes, Nog might be the Cobbler. But so might I. And on Day 1? Lynch? What a risk.

Does every vote before Mith's official "stop" post count?

EDIT: x-post, I knew it was coming

Mith: Heck. If. I. Know.



So I feel stupid now. I vote Nog to prevent a double lynch, then Menel catches back up so I switch to prevent it STILL, and my vote doesn't even get in on time.


Forget this. I'm going for food. I'll find out who died later.

EDIT: x'd with the moddess. Oooo, so I did make it in on time? Or no?

The moddess decides....

This isn't easy but I am going to make the deadline stand regardless that I was a couple of minutes off. The fairest way is to go by the downs clock.

I like retractable votes since situations can change however I also believe that people should vote in good time and have the courage of their convictions. I don't particulary like double lynches but each player received a substantial number of votes. Therefore both Nogrod and Meneltamarcil will sadly leave us today.

There had been much talk and even some singing during the first day of the contest and by the end of the day there were two main candidates for expulsion from the competition. Mithalwen was suprised - nos so much by one - inhabitants of Minas Morgul would have to work hard to make friends and some of the wraith's repertoire had been a little avante garde. The singer from the Old Forest had demonstrated skill in various genres and tongues. Perhaps he had represented too much of a threat.

The two singers moved to the front of the stage to give their farewell duet inspired by their shared devotion and love for the Vala Nienna, patron of those who grieve and swore friendship in place of their rivalry since they shared the same fate. Both had been genuine contestants.

Apologies to Bizet

MENELTARMACIL
C'était le soir!
Dans l'air par la brise attiédi,
Les chanteurs au front inondé de lumière,
Appelaient lentement les autres à choisir
NOGROD
Au fond du opéra
Paré de fleurs et d'or,
Une femme apparaît!
MENELTARMACIL
Une femme apparaît!
NOGROD
Je crois la voir encore!
MENELTARMACIL
Je crois la voir encore!

NOGROD
La foule prosternée
La regarde, etonnée,
Et murmure tous bas:
Voyez, c'est la déesse!
Qui dans l'ombre se dresse
Et vers nous tend les bras!

MENELTARMACIL
Son voile se soulève!
Ô vision! ô rêve!
La foule est à genoux!

MENELTARMACIL & NOGROD
Oui, c'est elle!
C'est la déesse
plus charmante et plus belle!
Oui, c'est elle!
C'est la déesse
qui descend parmi nous!
Son voile se soulève et la foule est à genoux!

NOGROD
Mais à travers la foule
Elle s'ouvre un passage!

MENELTARMACIL
Son long voile déjà
Nous cache son visage!

NOGROD
Mon regard, hélas!
La cherche en vain!

MENELTARMACIL
Elle fuit!

NOGROD
Elle fuit!
Mais dans mon âme soudain
Quelle étrange ardeur s'allume!

MENELTARMACIL
Quel feu nouveau me consume!

NOGROD
Ta main repousse ma main!

MENELTARMACIL
Ta main repousse ma main!

NOGROD
De nos cœurs l'amour s'empare
Et nous change en ennemis!

MENELTARMACIL
Non, que rien ne nous sépare!

NOGROD
Non, rien!

MENELTARMACIL
Que rien ne nous sépare!

NOGROD
Non, rien!

MENELTARMACIL
Jurons de rester amis!
NOGROD
Jurons de rester amis!
MENELTARMACIL
Jurons de rester amis!

MENELTARMACIL & NOGROD
Oh oui, jurons de rester amis!
Oui, c'est elle! C'est la déesse!
En ce jour qui vient nous unir,
Et fidèle à ma promesse,
Comme un frère je veux te chérir!
C'est elle, c'est la déesse
Qui vient en ce jour nous unir!
Oui, partageons le même sort,
Soyons unis jusqu'à la mort!
