Hmm... Kath's already admitted she's not basing her vote on reasoning, and I don't see the evidence on Diamond... Also, suspicion was drifting towards Gil and Ang. I wonder if this isn't a desperation ploy by Kath to deflect suspicion on a teammate? If we don't execute a wolf today, we lose. Period.

Gil's highest on my suspicious list for his last minute retraction a few days ago, losing us Volo. Then there's Kath, who cast a critical vote just now for the one person whom there's no evidence on. Then Ang, who also made a retraction for Volo a few days ago. Then Diamond, who really hasn't done much of anything.

Right now, I'm torn between Gil and Kath.

I mean, this is great fun, but it's also madness!

Maddness!? THIS IS WEREWOLF!!!!

just had too

so, diamond has one vote now and everyone else is split between basically me and Ang..., well shasta is between me and Kath

++Ang

i suggest for the rest of you to not vote for any one else, focus on the two that have been voted for, ang or diamond... or be idiots and vote for someone different and have a mass suicide, that will definately show who the wolves are...

Anguirel · 05-25-2007, 01:30 AM

Gil, "focus on Ang and Diamond" is a ridiculous statement that only a wolf would make. Our votes are retractable - once - and we still have considerable leeway. You are attempting to limit our choices. To me, that screams out your guilt.

Now, the obvious question - did Aganzir know anything at her death? Look over her remarks. It looks a bit like she cleared me, hadn't dreamt of Kath and was preparing to dream of Shasta.

Also, let's think about the wolf rationale here. Did they doubt Aganzir's Hunter claim, in which case Shasta might still be guilty? Was Shasta innocent, allowing them to attack in the expectation of two dead innocents and victory? Did they disbelieve Aganzir's claim and know she'd got it wrong about Shasta?

Why slip into instinct voting now (particularly Gil, who hasn't even any excuse?) This day is crucially important and we need to start reasoning. Look at the dead wolves and their relationships with the suspects...

I trust Diamond, am unsure about Shasta, think Kath looks opportunistic and Gil guilty as sin.

I have failed to convince many of you of my own good intentions; but I think the medium might have cleared me, and I can also remind you that, at the time the wolf Macalaure was claiming to be a Seer and trying to win votes, he said I was innocent. Obviously this could be a nod to me as a fellow-wolf, but that would be a quite risky course of action...

Anguirel · 05-25-2007, 06:52 AM

Still silence?

I can explain that, I suppose -

Kath is away ( and probably wouldn't talk much as a wolf)

Shasta and Diamond are fairly quiet by disposition (in this game anyway)

I am busy and lazy

Gil is staying schtum which is exactly what he would, as a wolf, do at this point.

I have to act to provoke some action...

++GIL

Anguirel · 05-25-2007, 11:23 AM

Lord! 40 minutes till the deadline, heading for a randomised triple lynch and not a soul seems to care...

I have no intention of changing my vote to Diamond if there's a fighting chance I can get Gil lynched. 33% isn't that bad, and I have long been a devotee of Lady Luck...

Diamond18 · 05-25-2007, 11:29 AM

Well, I'm all for lynching Gil. I think he's the guiltiest looking one here. And now after Kath's vote I'm more torn than before about her and Ang... though that may be knee-jerk defensiveness. Ang is coming across as a lot more geniune now, at any rate.

Well -

+ + GIL

Anguirel · 05-25-2007, 11:53 AM

Arrgh...I'm having Doubts...would a wolf-Gil be so obvious in technique...?

Rikae · 05-25-2007, 12:00 PM

Zombie Gil-Galad had been suspected from the day he refused to take a canonical role. His erratic behavior and strange voting choices made him the logical choice for the day's lynching.

Anguirel quite simply, for lack of anything better to do, grabbed a sword and unceremoniously lopped off the undead elf's head.

The four Downers waited for the transformation...but instead, heard a voice lamenting softly and at a great distance:

"Gil-galad was an elven king, Of him the harpers sadly sing. Last of realms fair and free, Between the mountains and the sea."

The four turned and looked at each other. Di stared at Kath, wide eyed. Kath gazed fearfully at Ang. Ang looked at Shasta....

Shastanis Althreduin grinned, and his teeth seemed unusually sharp and un-elven...
The high Lady Diamond18 began to chuckle quietly, but the laughter ended in a snarl...
