Game thread - Werewolf C - The Father Christmas Murders
On a cold, cold Night on a cold, cold ledge midway up the cliff outside Christmastown, two conspirators met to plot nefarious deeds.
Meanwhile, two scowling citizens of Christmas town glowered at the 'conspirators' with their 'commercialism' and their 'profits'. "I'm sick of it all, I really am," the first said. "And this Christmastown isn't helping matters any," the second said. "Father Christmas did no one any favors there - all Christmas all the time! It was bad enough when it was just one day a year. Now it drives me crazy every day of the year!" "You'd think the rest of the town would feel the same way." "Well, if they don't yet...we'll make them fell that way." The two grinned silently at each other. Living Sally - Little Cindy Lou Who Shasta - Jack Frost G55 - Rudolph Coppermirror - The Ghost of Christmas Present Steve - Valkotukka Morsul - The Grinch Nerwen - The Sugar Plum Fairy Zil - Frosty Boro - Olive the Other Reindeer McCaber - Tiny Tim Lommy - Paksu Legate - Santa Claus Dead No one - yet Night folk, start...Night folking. Wolves chat, Seer dream. Night 1 begins now!

Suzy Snowflake hurried down the street, clutching her lace white shawl to her against the sudden flurry of wind and snow. She was nearly home, and she'd be so glad to sleep in her own bed after so long abroad.
"Well, well, well," she heard echoing around the walls of the quiet buildings along the quiet street. She paused. "Hello?" she called timidly. "I think we've figured out who's causing this little blizzard of ours," chuckled a second voice. "We can't have Christmas without a little snow," said the first. "Good," said the second. Suzy was beginning to back away nervously when the two stepped out of the fog towards her. She instantly relaxed. "Oh, it's just you two!" she said with a laugh. "I must have been away for too long - I've gotten paranoid!" "Too long, yes, you have," murmured the one on the left. "We've been waiting for you." "Oh, is there going to be a Christmastown party?" Suzy asked brightly. "You could say that." "Oh, how lovely! Will there be presents?" Suzy clapped her hands in delight. "Left on everyone's doorstep." Suzy beamed. "And decorations?" "Of course." "And punch and eggnog?" "Well, drinks, at any rate." Suzy blinked. "No eggnog?" "I'm not a fan." "But where's your Christmas spirit?" Suzy asked in dismay. "You have to have eggnog at Christmas! It's a tradition!" "I'm a modern man, myself," the quieter of the two announced. "I make my own traditions." With that, the two stepped forward and threw electric blankets over her head. Suzy shrieked, but the sound was too muffled to attract attention. The two swaddled her up in more electric blankets until she couldn't move an inch, then left her lying in the street. "And they swaddled her in cloth and laid her in the street, because there was no room for her in their plans," chortled the first. "New traditions, indeed," murmured the second. As Suzy Snowflake's trademark snow fell on her, the electric blankets quickly melted it into a pool of water...which soon rose high enough to short out the carefully exposed wires that warmed the blanket. Suzy's muffled screams echoed the electric shocks until she screamed no more. That morning, as the sun rose and pierced the fog, the inhabitants of Christmastown didn’t take long to discover the body. The smoke and steam acted like a beacon, leading directly to Suzy’s blanket-entombed body. “What happened?” Olive asked. “Things like this never happened back home! Or, at least, not since we trapped the postman at the zoo.” “I can’t imagine it was an accident,” The Grinch said. “I foretold you so,” the Ghost of Christmas Present wailed mournfully. Jack Frost slammed his fists into a nearby wall. “How could this happen?” he snarled. “Suzy never hurt a soul,” the Sugar Plum Fairy said sadly. “All the children loved her.” “Whoever did this, if they could kill Suzy, they could kill anyone,” Valkotukka said. “We’ve got to find who did this,” Santa said. “Before they kill again,” Paksu agreed. “Oh, sure,” Tiny Tim said, “and how are we going to find the murderers? Look for fingerprints on the electricity burns?” “And besides, they’re probably standing here among us,” Rudolph said. “How can we trust anyone?” “We can’t,” Frosty said. “We’d better go by majority vote, or we’ll never know for sure.” “And then what do we do with them, once we’ve found them?” Little Cindy Lou Who asked. “Kill them,” Jack Frost growled. “Kill them, like they killed Suzy.” A silence fell over the group as they realized what they were about to do. Then, as the sun finally crested the mountains, the group nodded solemnly, one by one. Living Sally - Little Cindy Lou Who Shasta - Jack Frost G55 - Rudolph Coppermirror - The Ghost of Christmas Present Steve - Valkotukka Morsul - The Grinch Nerwen - The Sugar Plum Fairy Zil - Frosty Boro - Olive the Other Reindeer McCaber - Tiny Tim Lommy - Paksu Legate - Santa Claus Dead Lottie - Suzy the Snowflake - Moddess Day 1 has begun. Wolves, stop talking to each other. Village, good luck!

Shoty first post.
Just realized that I'm actually barely going to be home tomorrow, but hopefully enough to post meaningful stuff. I'll vote, but I can't guarantee 100% participation.

Ok, my thoughts so far:
Sally - Well, she's said about as much as I have until now. Which is not good. Especially because she's potentially been around since then and hasn't said anything. Shasta - Said very little. But he has a list coming, so I'll wait for that. G55 - Seems to be trying to bring in some real talk as well as banter. Looks good so far. Seems to only have suspicion by gut-feeling so far, though. Coppermirror - Seems to be mostly totally in-character banter so far. I don't like the first paragraph of this post. It seems like just posting something for the sake of it. The list seems slightly better, but the points against G55 and Zil seem pretty weak. Morsul - Seems like normal Morsul so far. I'm inclined to believe innocent. Nerwen - Well, she only has one post so far, so I'm not sure what to make of her. Zil - I don't know. Something about him doesn't sit right with me. He's definitely far more banterous than usual, but that's not what makes me uneasy. I'll need to look at him in more detail. Boro - Pretty funny so far, but he hasn't given much. So far it looks like he's tried to do a phantom (i.e. force a discussion that he wants) twice, which I don't like out of principle. Of course, that suggest innocence or guilt, but he doesn't feel like the innocent Boro I'm used to. McCaber - Unless he's serious with his first sentence here (and I don't like that post because it seems full of false substance), this is the serious game talk he's had. It could be something that either side would suggest, but I'm going to need to address that later. Lommy - I'm not really keen on her first list because it mixes banter and seriousness too much. Could be an easy way for a wolf to make a light non-committal accusation to go back to later when it becomes useful. And in her second list, she does indeed refer to what she previously said about G55. She then says it's 85% jokey, which makes it seem worse, because now she has license to go back to it probably one more time. Her vote seems ok, though. Legate - Asks the moddess useful questions, but of course, this doesn't speak for his innocence or guilt, since the answers benefit every role. I was going to say that this makes him least likely to be a cobbler, but then I realised that this would probably be a really good early-game tactic for a cobbler. People I'd rather not for just yet: Legate Morsul G55 People I need to see more of before I begin to make any sort of judgement: Shasta Sally Nerwen edit: x-ed with Nerwen's #60

Clarifications and other thoughts while catching up:
- I don't particularly suspect Coppermirror of being a Cobbler. While that suspicion has been brought up based on at least two posts, I don't think a Cobbler would lean so heavily on such an obviously Cobbler-favouring IC role. That said, it doesn't mean that I find CM innocent at the moment. -Legate. I'm not really finding him that innocent now that I look over him, but I'm not inclined to single him out for the lynch toDay because he's generating some good discussion at least. -I'm not particularly keen on a Zil lynch toDay.

Did I not tell you that upon the forehead of Suzy Snowflake, that which is Doom was written? Alas that you did not listen.
Hark! Once more, that which is Doom is written upon the forehead of one of our number. We must erase that writing, or else bide our time until the end. A monument for Suzy Snowflake is a fine idea. I shall be glad to assist its construction; such a jolly thing would do honour to her. But still - beware, beware! |

If it is supposed to be an investigation, then let's make it a proper one. I suggest starting by making a house-search in every place. If we can't get into some houses, I'm pretty good in crawling down chimneys.
So otherwise, as for more practical questions... maybe one thing that should be cleared about the rules (maybe the Moddess should actually answer this, if she happens to be reading?), the Cobbler does count in the tally as innocent or as Wolf? (As in, if it's e.g. 2 Wolves, a Cobbler and three innocents... though maybe it doesn't matter in the end, since in such a case the point is anyway avoiding the stage when it's 2 Wolves, a Cobbler and two innocents.) And regarding Seer-dreams, since it hasn't been mentioned in the rules, I assume the Cobbler shows normally as Cobbler to the Seer, and not as innocent, like it was in some games... I think, since somebody has mentioned this as well, I might remark that I might be slightly less active these days than usual, too, but I think it should not really be that much less. I'll be back again and around, also once more people show up, with some initial impressions...

It looks as if the only discussion point we have at the moment is about Reindeer language and the assorted translations and comments on it. On the face of it, that all looks like 100% innocent banter to me, and I wouldn't feel at all confident about voting for anyone based on that.
But, I've been wrong about apparently meaningless first Day banter before. I'll have another look as see if, IDK, there are any secret messages hidden in those posts, and then see if I can scrape together any actual suspicions of anyone from the little there is to go on. |

Ugh. I should really go to sleep and vote (in the opposite order of course) and I really have no idea what to think, say or vote. Hmm. Another list in order? Seems like the easiest way to think...

Sally - nothing to say this far.
Shasta - the same. G55 - well I wasn't only joking when I noted she was being apologetic. She's not saying much although she's been around - then again, who has? Coppermirror - one of the ones that don't seem suspicious at all to me. Steve - not here. Morsul - actually, I think he seems pretty innocent right now. I would still appreciate if he clarified the stuff he's hinting at. Nerwen - hasn't said much of importance. Zil - seems to be using his time on bantering. I'm not sure if it's suspicious or sort of pre-Christmas laziness that I feel a victim of myself. Boro - Othe one whose posts have been the most interesting this far. Not that I can make much out of them. I mostly rely on my gut-feeling when it comes to Boro, and I haven't got one yet in this game. McCaber - seems pretty fair this far. Legate - can't judge this far, but I'm not alarmed. So who to vote? Absolutely no idea... let me think.

Sally - Little Cindy Lou Who: Showed up, said next to nothing. Has been crying for Suzy all day. It would be good to see another post from her, even if it's banter.
Shasta - Jack Frost: Was delayed by making Suzy's grave arrangements. Nothing has caught his eye, and he thinks Legate is the only one who's said anything of substance. I can't blame him for thinking nothing's caught his eye when nothing much has caught mine yet either. G55 - Rudolph: Can't participate much toDay due to real life, but will vote. Wants to make a snowflake monument. Would a Christmas-hating wolf be willing to suggest that as cover for their flinty-hearted ways? Coppermirror - The Ghost of Christmas Present: Having lots of fun with banter! But also getting down to business now. Steve - Valkotukka:...Has he actually posted at all? I don't think he has. Morsul - The Grinch: Presented us with a lovely rhyme. One day he'll adore Christmas cheer, just you wait. Makes several joking comments and thinks this will be a silly game. I certainly hope it will be properly jolly. ![]() He complains that Legate was singling him out, and makes some first impression comments about four players, there not being enough to go on for the rest. Nerwen - The Sugar Plum Fairy: Shared reindeer language interpretations with us, and suggested through that that Boromir is a hooved wolf. Could be nothing but a joke. Could be an opportunistic Seer trying to hide an accusation, but probably isn't. Could be a wolf or Cobbler trying to look a little Seer-ish. Zil - Frosty: Thinks that speculation based on nothing will only harm us and those of us who are in the Christmas spirit. I am very much a Christmas Spirit, so I sympathise with his views. But even so, we must analyse things. It's the weighing up of value that we must use our Christmas cheer for. Boro - Olive the Other Reindeer: Provided an excellent opportunity for others to interpret him. Gave a list of comments on various people, which may potentially be useful to look back on when we have some hard data but right now is difficult to read. McCaber - Tiny Tim: Cannot get far on his crutches. On general principles I'm against lynching Tiny Tim after all the effort my brothers have been to in order to melt Scrooge's heart and incidentally save Tim in the process. Lommy - Paksu: Interprets Boro's reindeer-speak as an admission of Cobblerhood. This could potentially have a deeper meaning, but frankly it's beyond me right now. Naturally the same things applying to Nerwen's post apply to her. She then gives a quick list with little comments on people. It may or may not be useful later. Legate - Santa Claus: Wants people to post more than banter. Which is reasonable, although I must say that I have no intentions of dropping the banter entirely at any point of the game, since I have a fun Ghost job this time. (I mean, the role description for that one is hovering around and making vaguely ominous statements! I can't pass it up.) Legate Claus wants us to look for Cobblers and for people trying to contact them, and thinks we should look at the Boro-Nerwen-Lommy exchange. Which, again, is reasonable enough. So in summary, I really don't think we have anything of value to go on and I'm rather aghast at the prospect of picking people based either on what looks like meaningless banter or on who has failed to post much. The only thing I can think of doing right now is going entirely by gut instinct, which is a poor substitute for decent analysis. I'll try looking through things again and hope that something jumps out at me, or that there'll be further posts of interest. Ahem. My ghostly calculations say that toDay's choice will either set us upon a path to destruction, or to good cheer and hearty meals, but that the likelihood of the latter is smaller. We must be wary...wary... Edit: Cross-posted with everyone on this page and the last of the previous page. Beware, beware of cross-posting! |

Okay, my brain just isn't working and I should sleep, and besides I have Agan and Volo in my room trying to keep up a discussion...
So ++Inzil ("No, don't vote him!" says Agan. "He's nice and he looks like me!" Sorry mate, you're not playing, your comments don't count.) My reasons: I figured Zil's been busy, but he gives a very lazy impression. As if he didn't have to catch wolves and he could just afford commenting this and that, mostly in bantery tone. That's the best I have for toDay. edit: xed with Eönwë (*waves*) and Shasta

++Legate
Shasta looks good, and Boro feels slightly better. Steve I still can't decide. Nerwen sounds her typical self. That's for toMorrow. EDIT: xed with a bunch

Catching up and writing (apologies for possibly repeating other people's points)
Finally here! I hope you all had as nice Christmas as I did but it looks like you folks posted more.

End-of-Day1 Galadriel gives me a fishy feel. Both for praising my vote as impressive (which it wasn't) and her gut-feelingy suspicions that seem just fabricated. (Also "I haven't changed my gut-feelings"... huh? Does that mean you intentionally change them sometimes???) End-of-Day1 McCaber, on the other hand, seems pretty sincere but I agree with whoever said it's not very profitable for us that he intentionally withholds stuff. Furthermore, his vote is not very impressive really - it's little more than a random vote. (Come on, who abatsins otally from posting intentionally? Most likely people have RL stuff in those cases.) I also like End-of-Day-1 Eönwë. He seems pretty sharp. Shasta has a good point about his vote possibly being suspiciously carefully structured, though. Not really surprised about Boro being an ordo, and kind of curious about how that lynched happened. It seemed as if it came quite out of the blue even though it kept slowly unfolding during the later hald of the day. Have to think about that. Last Night I'm impressed! I don't remember when I last played with a ranger save. I am, however, a little sad of having less clues since there was no kill, but now it will be interesting to think who could have been targeted by both the wolves and the ranger last Night... Off the top of my head, I'd say Shasta, Nerwen, McCaber or Steve. Not very helpful, eh? ToDay (it's been pretty long already) Quote:
Looking at the voting record posted by McC, I have to say that if Inzil is a wolf, we'd better have a good look at Monsieur McC himself. Steve could be a packmate of Inzil's too. G55's vote looks totally out of plce, and doesn't exactly make me less suspicious of her. Quote:

A List
Probably got presents this year
Sally - the little she's posted seems actually pretty good. She's reasonable and thinks independently. I'd still like to see more from here to judge better. Morsul - a bit fishy, I admit, but my gut-feeling says innocent. Far from being my top concern atm. Nerwen - mostly gut-feeling again, but I don't find her very suspicious. I'd like to hear more from her, though. Legate - his Boro-suspicion seemed like basic misguided ordo-Legate ![]() The blind spot of my elvish intelligence Shasta - like Sally, a quiet and independent poster, but he reminds me a little too much of succesful wolf-Shastas to make me feel easy about him. Eönwë - I like his uncompromising thinking (and his jokes!) and he seems reasonable. Then again, there's something about him - notably him seeming a likely packmate for several people - that doesn't really sit right with me. Zil - I don't know. He's actually under my radar right now. He hasn't really imporved much since yesterDay - in comparison with the general level of discussion (and again it seems he has RL reasons) - but there are way more suspicious people around right now. I'm keeping an eye on him, I guess. McCaber - he's a little contradictory and mysterious, and his part in yesterDay's voting doesn't look too good. Then again, his tone is honest, if I'm any judge. Keeping an eye on him too. Probably didn't get presents this year Galadriel - flimsy reasonings and weird phrasings, plus she's way too self-conscious. Definitely makes my alarm bells ring. Coppermirror - I really didn't like that pre-written post (both as an idea and the content). Otherwise, not so bad. Just seems to be off a lot, I wonder if it's confusion or wolvishness. edit: xed with Zil

Might be a language thing, but I think noting that a post looks like you can "jump" on it sounds pretty opportunistic and fishy. As if you were just looking for something you could grasp at.

Lommy's suspicion list looks quite a bit like one I would do at this time. Since I already was leaning toward her having an innocent air, that's helpful.
I would put Morsul in the Yellow category though, since I sometimes get the feeling he's trying to pull something. x/d with Lommy x 2

I'm probably the easiest buddying-up victim in ww history, but Zil agreeing with me and saying I seem innocentish made me feel better about him too.
![]() Anyway ++Galadriel55 Easily the most suspicious person at the moment (which probably should be alarming. Where's the other wolf? And the cobbler?) If you need my reasons, see what I posted earlier toDay. Now I'm off to bed. Happy remains of Boxing Day (or St. Stephen's, as you would say here) everyone and good night!

So, am I right in my calculations that the DL is supposed to come in something like 6, 7 hours? Does not really make me that happy since very many people haven't still showed up toDay at all, even though of course it is understandable and I am not the one who should complain, given that I also haven't been around. Still, one or two posts from the more obscure people like sally, or even Shasta who showed up basically only to excuse himself (though he promised more thoughts later, so I hope I'll still be around to read them, though I am planning to go to sleep in a couple of hours at most). Well, it is not such a tragedy, given the Ranger-save, technically, we can take this "extended Christmas Day" in some way as an extra-Day, with a lynch traded for a kill.
I am still pretty much wary of G55, who just keeps having the air of something not quite right there, and in some of her latter posts she seemed "agreeable", as if it was intentional way of trying to look like "Mrs. Agreeable". I was hoping for more from Steve, and I still hope he will show up. The same goes for Zil, who is really not very active, though it seems due to being busy. I must say I am pretty much in dark about McCab and actually haven't been thinking about him very much, because basically the only concrete thing about him is his vote for sally, which could've been an "easy vote", but that's about it, and I wouldn't necessarily put it past McCab to vote in such a way also as innocent.

Though of course taking into account also what Cop had said about her earlier gaming style, and also the explanation Quote:
As for Cop "taking long time to say obvious things", whereas I can see it being a "crime" in the eyes of some (and in a way in mine too, of course it's better to be clear and brief, but..)... it, exactly, isn't a crime by itself. So that wouldn't bother me. In such case, what is important is the content, whether it's long or short. EDIT: x-ed with Lommy and sally

I don't like how you choose to press this issue. It is just like you did on Day1 - cast a shade of suspicion on someone and add that you don't truly believe in it, as though to distance yourself from it. I don't like it. Quote:
Now that people are starting to post I'm having trouble keeping up! ![]() ![]() EDIT: xed since Lommy at 180

Legate, the deadline is in a little less than 5 hours. See the Day1 beginning post time stamp for the deadline, for example.

Sally - still digesting her posts. Leaning on the innocent side.
Shasta - I have hoped to see more of him. But he did promise to be around later. Coppermirror - Just the same as before. Some mixed feelings. Steve - see Shasta Morsul - sounds innocent enough. Nerwen - posts like her typical self mostly. Nothing alarming. Zil - don't like our little peasant exchange, but then it could be comming from an innocent Zil too. McCaber - that vote of his *sigh*. I have asked him a question regarding something he has said earlier, but he still hasn't come back to reply. Lommy - don't like it how she paints suspicion on people while pretending not to hold the paintbrush. Legate - has an interesting back-and-forth with Nerwen which makes me wonder about what could be the connection between the two, but no conclusions yet. May be just any typical back-and-forth. Also, that part discussing Lommy in his list - I'll have to reread that. EDIT: xed with Cop

Well, I have to vote, and there hasn't been really very much to go with. I think G55 is a good vote as any, and her last post does not really add to the impression I have of her.
++G55 Even though I am still curious about Cop as well, and definitely would like to look more at the more silent players too, Gal does not really look to me like an innocent Gal at all. EDIT: x-ed with G55... this looks like even more grasping on straws, actually. Good Night, village.
