Just a couple of preliminary notes to begin with while announcing that my goats seem to be satisfied for the time being and I have a chance to join the effort here.

The "schism" between Rikae, Lommy and Mac looks interesting indeed, but it might also be three innocents trying to do something useful and having the time to be online at the early hours of the Day with no one elses words to pick up. I mean, after the last game my father went thorugh I have learned to be even more careful with those who hide in the shadows and avoid the bright sunshine of arguments and debates (*coughEonwecough*).

The best place for a thing, I believe, is around the open arguments, mildly supporting or critizing the views brought forwards but not actually taking openly part in them. Then they can say they have been in the discussion and thence are not flying under the radar but have avoided to risk themselves by actually presenting cases or arguments of their own (from which they could be held accountable, were they "right or wrong" - I mean had they been innocents and backed the wrong horse or be they villains knowingly making a "misjudgement"...).

I admit that I thought of Rikae's first post at least eyebrow-raising stuff, but now I'm not so sure anymore. She seems to speak in a reasonably innocent voice. Something similar goes for Mac. He has been a bit... well how should one say it... tight? (I do not agree with Jenny who says that he has been aggressive) But being innocent he would probably make just those points? (SO: being a thingy he would so the same too?) And Lommy I find not the more suspicious she normally is - which isn't much said as she tends to be suspected everytime she plays.

I'll have to look at the posting more closely before trying to form any clearer ideas. And the dynamics of this game surely would merit some discussion too, even though our first objective must be getting one thing toDay.

I'll be back after a while.

PS. Rikae, don't be afraid. My goats will provide you with enough milk to your cheeses. Goatmilk tastes pretty bad as such anyway...

EDIT: X-d with Rune, Rikae & Kitanna...
