Okay, fine. Naria, if you insist.
I am NOT the Shaman. Just an ordo. So what have I been up to? At first, I was playing as I normally would and had no intention of trying to pull off any bluffs. Nogrod was the one who first put the idea into my head when he said that my trusting him on Day 1 could have been the sign of my having been the Shaman in receipt of a dream of him. Which led to my 'better me than someone else' comment. I didn't really think of playing this up at all until Sleepy declared me the Shaman. At that point, I figured some sort of discussion of why I could or couldn't be the Shaman would ensue, possibly threatening the true Shaman. Besides, if the Orcs could be persuaded that I was a probable Shaman, I figured they wouldn't go looking too hard for anyone else and I could guarantee at least one extra night of dreaming. Maybe I was wrong on that point, but my other goal was to protect Zali at night. As a revealed Ranger, she is a prime target --- unless that Orcs have a better one: the Shaman. So I took what Sleepy gave me and ran with it, dropping cryptic hints right and left that I don't think our Orcsies could possibly have risked ignoring. My goal was to ensure that the Orcs killed an ordo-me before taking out a gifted Zali (or worse, the real Shaman), at least until there were enough dreams to ensure a village win. I think I've done that now with two Orcs to be found among five unknowns. We have the Ranger save from last night, which I'm hoping was of me, since that would take another unknown off the list, and one more dream, which probably should be revealed soon. In fact, today might be a good mass revelations day, though any revealing, is of course, left to the discretion of the revealers. Satsified?
