*points up at Kit's #40)
Hear, hear! So how did this thing-that-can't-be-called-a-train get rolling? Let me try a little resumé. #8 Glirdan makes a typical Day1 banteresque remark that Boro likes to see Batman killed + posted first -> is guilty. #9 Lottie comments on Glirdan's post that if there's anything at all in Boro's post, it could be a cobbler hint; then immediately cautions against taking that too seriously. #10 Nerwen replies with what could be seen as a hint of her own and says Boro could be wolf hinting to cobbler. #11 Lottie takes notice of Nerwen's maybe-hint and cautions further against taking apparent hints too seriously; "don't think we should automatically assume Boro's evil." #13 Nerwen points out that obvious hints from baddies early in game are rare and continues with maybe/maybe not. #16 Glirdan is starting to get unnerved by Lottie and Nerwen making more of his remark than he intended. I don't know how serious he was about the unnerving - could be overreaction. #18 Kit comments on Lottie's ambiguity about the hint question. #20 Pitch (that's me) questions Glirdan on his reaction. #21 wilwa doesn't see anything cobblerish in Boro. #22 Neither does Nog. #29 Pitch (see above) comments on Nerwen's wolf-cheer and Lottie's ambiguity, is wishy-washy himself. And thus it goes on with nothing really new, apart from sally's knife joke, which made me coin the metaphor Kit objects to. So the interesting question is, what, if anything, can we glean from how this whole thing has gone until now? (x-ed w/ Lottie and sally)

Crap crap and double crap. Erm, I totally didn't mean to quote everything, but when I pasted it back in I forgot to take bits back out. I don't suppose you'll complain if I fix it, will you? *shifty eyes, goes to repair the whoopsie*

epic post, sally!

About wilwa - this "we've got loads of time and no reason to worry" attitude is something I'd usually overlook (as in not notice), especially as she's so reasonable otherwise. But you're right, it's not exactly conducive to catching wolves. EDIT: P.S. sally, keep it as it is. Nice to know where to find a quote if you need it.

In the order of the Joker's list...
Nerwen - I feel uncomfortable with her right now. The more people say she was probably just joking with her "Go wolves!" the more plausible it seems as a cobbler-tactics (or even wolf-tactics)... if you see what I mean. Your tendency to believe it a joke makes it a worthwhile deception. Glirdan - Confused about him, like I tend to be... Sally - A bit overagreeable even if she is being just Sally: now is that possible? Durelin - A tough one: first she was to "lunch" anyone of us and now a list with no reason whatsoever on anyone. A bit too attention-seeking to be a wolf but then again she's bold and been around long enough. Boro - Low key. Very low key indeed. Wilwa - I seem to get my usual latter-days-suspicions (referring to her new ww-career) on her which probably means she's inmnocent. Isabel - One post. Amusing but quite void of any content. It's early though. Kitanna - Could be a wolf actually: calm, quiet, collected but still contributing enough to look very good indeed. Pitchwife - I liked his summary and he looks like doing the right thing (unless in cahoots with Lottie). Loslote - Looks more or less the active stirrer of discussion and the ball-roller she is; feels better than not (unless in cahoots with Pitch).

Seriously though, I think we should let Glirdan be for toDay, as he's got a RL time issue and may not be able to speak for himself in time. The more I think about it, the less I'm inclined to suspect Lottie and Nerwen for the whole hint-or-no-hint business. Wolves don't need to stir the pot like that. Unsubstantial suspicions are an endemic Day 1 disease and pop up no matter what, as the innocents desperately look for signs of wolvishness in any- and everybody. Wolves don't need to do that - not to the same extent, at least, and not as early; they've got to think about who to vote and prepare some reasons for their votes to reduce the appearance of open bandwagoning, but otherwise they can afford to be laid back and pretend to be the voice of reason (except nervous first-timers, but I don't think we have any of these in the present line-up). So let's look at the people who have been most reasonable up to now - which would be Kit, Nog and wilwa (sally too, now she's started actually playing, but to me at least, she just screams 'innocent' - much too straightforward and spot-on for any hidden agenda). Of these, the only one that has presented any point of attack seems to be wilwa, with her "take it easy/Yes we can!" attitude which sally pointed out... Hmmm. *ponders* (x-ed w/ Nog & Lottie)

The Doctor: Now Mr. Nogrod, I have the good news and I have the bad news. Which one would you like to take first?
Nog: Beautiful Soup, so rich and green, Waiting in a hot tureen! Who for such dainties would not stoop? Doc: Don't try that on me. It won't work. Here's the good news: you'll soon be blissfully ignorant of what goes on. How's that? Nog: Soup of the evening, beautiful Soup! Soup of the evening, beautiful Soup! Beau--ootiful Soo--oop! Beau--ootiful Soo--oop! Doc: Nuu-urse! The straightjacket, please! *a mild struggle ensues* Nog: Soo--oop of the e--e--evening! Doc: Okay that's it. *hits Nog with a hammer so that blood spills all around* Doc: The bad news then... You suffer, beside your overt madness, from a rare syndrom called Europeanismus narcolepticus. It means you will fall in a deep sleep quite so soon... *starts staring Nog in the eye and swinging a pendulum in front of his eyes* Nog (resignedly): Beautiful, beautiful soup... *hits Nog to a head with a hammer, more blood around* Nog (hardly audible): Beautiful soup! Who cares for fish, Game, or any other dish... Doc: Nuu-urse! Nuu-urse! Get this weirdo to room 9, will you?

*Nogrod wrestles away from his tormentors; the nurse and the doc give him a chase through the corridor*
If you look for the reasonable and careful, look for Kit, Boro and Pitch. If you look for the bold, look for Nerwen or Dury Or Pitch and Lottie. Funny you both recognized what I was talking about even if I gave no open reason for tying you two together... I do agree with Boro here: with no seer around the wolves may play also "the supporting game". No one would believe the wolves could fex. try to save each other on every lynch possible etc. (it has happened, and the last remaining wolf *coughValiercough* won that time as no one believed she could play it that openly). Interesting spotting this "mom"-thing there with Glirdan (heh "tell mom" = tell Morsul/Joker to get rid at Night of someone threatening him?). I'd not recommend lynching him for that though. Sally I'm quite baffled with, like... *The Doc and the nurse finally catch up with Nog and hit him unconscious with a baseball bat* Doc: Get him the medication. No more running amok for this guy. *Nog is given a serum and dragged away*

For the record, though, while Lottie replied to your "P&L-in-cahoots"-theory, I didn't up to now, as far as I can remember. So even though you're right, how could you know we both recognized what you were talking about? I don't suppose you can read my mind, or can you?

Okay the drugs are doing their work and I feel soo sleepy...
On the one hand I could go for Kit as just a lucky shot meeting the description of a wise and careful wolf. On the other hand I'm tempted to vote for Nerwen because she not only made that infamous "Go wolves" (followed by the IC underlining of her madness as an excuse to say that). It would be bold but intelligent from a wolf or a cobbler. Also her part in opening up / maintaining the Boro-issue back there looks sneaky indeed. Someone said the wolves would just like to sit down, but they also like to steer the first targets of discussion as then it's publicity away from them (the ones who are talked about end up being high on the lynch-list). Then there would be this Pitch - Lottie duet... but to go for it I'd need to be able to hear more from them (Well, needing to get out at this time leaves the same taste for everyone of you) and right now I have no hope of getting rid of two vocal players who seem to make sense. If Wilwa is right about her math then there should be time to read them more. A vote in a moment...

There's a 3/11 chance to lynch someone we'd want to.
7/11 regrettable, but ultimately canon-fodder lynch chance. 1/11 chance at lynching someone we really don't want to. What's the point in listing the captain obvious stats? Really no point in making tentative, cautious voting, because there's a better chance for the lynch to be a good result, a high chance it'd be bad but only be a flesh wound, and a very minimal chance at a terrible lynch.

I was kind of thinking that I'll choose my vote between Kit and Nerwen and now I need to consider brining you guys to the mix as well... Blah... another cigarette.

So I could see them turning on each other, if it came to that... I mean, it depends on who they are, and what happens. What we should do is ask everyone what they'd do if they were wolves, and the ones who do the exact opposite are the actual wolves. Like so: Nerwen: Jonathan, what would you do if you were a wolf? Jonathan (squeaky voice): Oooo.... let me see... if I were a wolf, Nerwen, I'd be long, squishy, green and tasteless. Definitely. Nerwen: Whereas you are in fact round, crisp, red and delicious? *voice drips with irony* Oh, how very convenient! Quote:

Okay.
I went back to see what Nerwen actually said in the beginning and am a bit less enthusiastic in voting her. What Pitch summed up in his resumé was in a way correct but Nerwen's actual comments are not actually that much driving the discussion towards Boro but more like just reacting to things said just before. But to see Pitch being the main source of my heightened suspicion of Nerwen makes me actually raise my eyebrow. A coincidence? The sudden reaction to my throw-away mention looks suspicious to me (I think it was clear I was suspecting other people more and it was just a mentioning of a possibility). But both Pitch and Lottie went for it immediately. If one of you two (Pitch & Lottie) is a wolf willing to make friends with an ordo, I'd say it would be Pitch. You have defended her from quite early on with no actual suspicions flying on her and with no good arguments as to why you "trust" her that much. Then again I see Nerwen posting and adamantly avoiding any talk about her even if she comments my posts... You guys make me crazy! Wait... I am crazy already. Does it mean you make me sane again?

I did not see anything in Boro's post that looked nefarious.
If there was something to it, then ha; otherwise o.O Another note about Clowns, and a bit of a fun story. When I was a younger lass; I walked into an arcade with my sister, and the gal behind the counter ran from me. I thought it odd, I did not know her and I am just a young kid, why would I warrant a running away from. I guess she was terrified of clowns, and I had been wearing a sweatshirt with a clown on it. I found it amusing. xD I do not think it far fetched to say that the majority of posts toDay will be filled with banter that perhaps far surpasses the typical crazy antics of first Days. So things being exploded out of proportion every which way, is I think overoffensive or overdefensive. Whichever way the Jester hat jingles. I disagree with the sentiment that you can never have too much joking. If the amount of joking is weighted against the actual playing, and is found to be heavier; then it is a bad time we will have in catching the wolves. As it means people can just hide behind the joke aspect of the game, which includes the wolves and cobblers. Then it will mean a tougher time distinguishing between actual joking around and showboat joking. Savvy? (I felt the need of a pirate ending to that statement.) Yossarian

I think the last cigarette didn't make me any wiser, and the clock ticks... tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic...
(Yes Sally, there's a lavatory that is not guarded and where one can smoke without the guards noticing... made me feel like a teenager again!) I'd like to vote you Boro indeed! If for nothing else, then to make you speak your mind at last and not get away with it just defending yourself and being smart & agreeable on general issues. You have been around, you have been nice, cool and reasonable - and defending. And you have also avoided all possible controversies. Your suspicions? None. If you're a wolf, then your points I have appreaciated about the wolves being very much able to play together in this kind of game turn out quite cynical points where you loved trying to lead us astray while knowing how the things are...
