Well, that was a turn...
Pitch got there first, right and we KNOW he's innocent... so... Legate?

Morsul - Pitch
Lommy - Legate Legate - Pitch Pitch - Legate Boro - Lommy Of these, which are the votes by possible wolves? Morsul voted for innocent Pitch. Lommy split the vote, adding possible wolf Legate, and Legate voted for innocent Pitch to save himself. Only one of these could be wolf-on-wolf, namely, Lommy voting for Legate, and Lommy simply didn't need to do that if they were packmates. If they are *not* packmates, that makes Morsul a wolf by default. Morsul has been pushing against the Pitch wagon now, and I'm not sure what that means. Is Legate the innocent of the three? But then did Lommy not vote for innocent Pitch if she was a wolf? If Soriman votes Pitch, we have to vote Legate. If he doesn't vote at all, we could vote Lommy, and our vote would be the tiebreaker. This is tense.

Pitch just asked Soriman to vote Lommy and leave it up to us. So, what do you say, Form? Legate or Lommy?

I'm afraid of getting it too close to the wire and I have NO read on Soro's reliability. I'll let you make the choice: Lommy or Legate.

This is so stressful. If one of Legate and Lommy is innocent, which is the only way our choice could cost us the game, then that means they're packmates with Morsul. Morsul is currently pushing to let the Dead decide - because he thinks the Dead will vote for Pitch? Lommy added Legate to the board, and Boro added Lommy...and Boro is more trustworthy than Lommy, simply because we know for a fact Boro at least isn't voting an innocent on purpose...

If Morsul is pushing for the Dead because he thinks it's the more likely way to get Pitch over Legate, maybe that means they are packmates??

It might be the best thing we have to go off.
Sally's comparative silence is actually WORSE than trying to fool us toDay.

Vote Legate then? I have both votes cued up, ready to press send.

I almost think Lommy, because though she and Morsul have traded lots of barbs over his "unthinking" trigger-voting, that ALMOST seems staged to me... but he and Legate haven't really gone head-to-head...

If Morsul is innocent, it doesn't matter which we choose. It only matters if he's a wolf. This is so convoluted.

I am sitting on pins and needles here waiting for the narration. Legate, welcome to the Dead Thread, really hope you're a wolf!

Well done, Deaduns! (Are we still Cuties if we're not the Quarantine Thread?) I'm excited to find out in the morning what happened on this side of reality!

YES! The game continues!!
It's now a 50-50 shot between Morsul and Lommy, and depending on the Night kill and on the information we get from our Moddess, we might be able to figure out which one of them it is. We might actually pull this one out, friends! Edit: xed with Huin and Form - welcome back, Huin!! Excellent job haunting!

I am mildly petrified of a Lommy-wolf killing Boro overNight and an Ordo-Morsul seeing Pitch's continued life as a clear sign of Wolvishness--get [b]Soro[b] to go along (he does, after all, seem to care a bit more about being mod-fired for not voting than for actually not voting...) and you've got a Dead-proof vote for a Known Innocent.
...but all that's for later! For now, we "live" to fight another day.

I'm glad it's driving you insane, because I've been so out of it today I am barely keeping up with the thread. Glad to be of disservice.

In accordance with what was discussed prior to the start of the game, we don't believe that the DT should function as a Seer. Therefore, no one player's role should be given with certainty. Furthermore, as mods, we don't feel it is fair to give free information that can override all the player's actions, as that will invalidate the playing and break the game. This 50/50 scenario is something that should have been foreseen but wasn't, and for next games some sort of caveat should be made for this situation. But for now, please accept our apologies and this infodrop. While redundant, we hope that it will still point out a different perspective to you.
We are aware that you may be upset about this change and we are prepared to listen to any complaints you may have. Therefore, we have prepared a complaint box for your enjoyment. We hope that this is satisfactory. There have only been 3 wolf-on-wolf votes in the game. |

That’s very fair, and I wondered if you might come to that decision! I, for one, am not going to complain. I think the Ghost and infodump mechanics have been great, and I especially like that the Living have one perspective and set of information, the Dead Thread has another, and the Ghost has a third, which is basically an outdated version of the Dead Thread perspective. It makes for a very fun game with high tensions and lots of excitement.

Ooooh, well done Form and Lottie! So we're down to Lommy or Morsul for the last wolf. I'm tempted to say that if it's Lommy she deserves to win. She could just as well have used the Confused Lommy -act to justify a vote for Pitch instead of throwing in a fellow who had avoided more or less all scrutiny until then. (I don't think anyone had voted for Legate all game until then. It was getting a bit creepy, actually.)

As for toMorrow - Kath, would you like to go back as Ghost yourself and tell them about Boro and Pitch? Or does someone else want to do it?

The biggest realisation I had was that I could bracket multiple name-quotes with repeats of the information about them. It's very hard to misunderstand "three quotes saying 'pitch' with 'we don't know for sure' on either side". (I was perversely glad not to have to clue Kath, though; that was definitely my weakest prospective post.) Quote:

I wonder who we'll see toMorrow... objectively the last wolf should kill Soriman, because a Known Innocent in the final 4 is a terrible thing. But when that innocent has such a low post-count, and has in fact missed two votes, it might be better to instead target someone you think is likely to out you/someone to misdirect suspicion. It would be hilarious if Wolflomien killed Morsordo to try and get people to vote Innopitch. ~ I scribbled some notes in the haze of yesterDay evening, and it looks like I found Lommy's interactions with the Ghost somewhat suspect. Quote:

2) In the first, she tried to tempt me into explaining how we know Soriman is innocent. That would be a great way to get a confusing Ghost post that she could use to sow more confusion in the camp. 3) Seeing a quote that says 'innocent' in the middle, and trying to parse a mention of Elves as being specifically about the players with Sindarin names is just... well, a huge stretch, and I don't think very likely to do in good faith. Looking at my opening posts and thinking I'd throw in two more Known Innocents ("or even know something?") in an incredibly oblique couple of words is... nah. Of course, I also scribbled about Lommy and Pitch working together to get Boro and Legate to turn on each other or Morsul, so that's the value of my thoughts. hS

I got up to get more meds, and I come back to people actually trying to catch wolves? What is this nonsense?

Oh hello there... who would have known Halls of Mandos are full of meat!
The pleasure's all mine, I assure thee. Thank you, thank you, Sestra Wolfcake. Glad to see you are dead and well. Let us grab some popcorn and see how this unfolds.

Ah, surely you can forgive me such a minor trespass. After all, I had to offer an alternative to lynching an innocent Hui - surely you perceive that that's a charitable deed? And think how much good it did - it gave the good fellow an entire full Day of life! Is that not fully worth a little (green) personal sacrifice?

Hi all! Welcome Legate and welcome back Hui.
Form and Lottie well done on that save yesterDay. It was seriously down to the wire! I would love to be the Ghost as it looks like so much fun, but it's just not feasible for me I'm afraid due to my timings as someone said so I will bow out gracefully. And yes, if Lommy/Morsul manage to kill the other suspect then ...

I'd really like someone new to be Ghost, but if nobody is able I can drop a set of Iluvatar-Innocent posts at DL (sleep is for the weak). But I'd really rather someone else did it.

I'm with Hui in both being able and wanting someone new to do it. Since we DON'T want the Wolves--*looks scoldingly at the Wolves* and if we spare the earlier-to-bed players... Lottie? Want a go?

I can do it if there isn't a high demand for the position. I'll start getting some quotes ready.
