Fea would admit to wolvishness, but last time she tried that ploy it got her team team lynched in 3 days. And what's funny is she actually hasn't admitted to wolvishness...yet. I wish there was some sort of empirical system based on the Laws of Science, then finding the wolves would be as easy as creating the loud boom in fireworks. Maybe then people would stop whining about how Day 1's are so unbearable.

I sense a great disturbance in the Force... as if a major player in That Other Fandom had suddenly met with a tragic, untimely end.
(And you'd better not try lynching me for that. I have a lightsaber.) Now, which of us do I suspect of having started down the dark path, which will forever dominate their destiny? Those whose mindless babble clouds our judgement? (Standouts: Rikae, Lalwendë.) Those who appear paranoid? (I sense much fear in Nogrod...) Those who attack others? Anger, fear, aggression. The Dark Side of the Force are they. (Standouts: Boro, Rikae again.) Quote:
...Which makes me wonder why you're even bothering to ask this question. This is a good point, however: EDIT: X'd with Boro and Nilp.

Hmmmm....looking through the Day it seems Rikae's been getting plenty of attention and might be a possible lynch candidate. And as far as Day 1's go, that probably means she is innocent...
After last game, I can't help but get that frustrated ordo feeling...whoever I suspect seems to turn out innocent. So perhaps this time I should just vote for people I don't really suspect. Okay, it's late and my brain is still adjusting to the whole school mode (I just started on Tuesday), so I admit I'm having a little trouble transitioning back into a WW mindset....or maybe it's just Day 1 syndrome. Due to classes, I'm going to have to vote 3-4 hours early. I have no idea who to vote for...we'll see what happens in the next several hours; I might just have to vote completely random. Anyways, apologies that I won't be around much toDay...but I will have plenty of time to devote to WW come this weekend. That is...if the werewolves don't get me first (and apparently they find me quite tasty ). Night all, I'll be back to post/vote in 7 or 8 hours. And if anyone needs me, I'll be sleeping on the Big Brother set.

*a flute playing, can be heard*
I think you would say you were an ordo, if you weren't Rikae. So, if Shasta had voted for you Rikae, you would vote for yourself? xD I can't help it, but every time I see Omnicon - I think of Necronomicon.. ex-mortis! I think Fea is just trying to bait a reaction out of someone; nothing was admitted. *music fades*

So...
I asked my crystal ball - some guy said it was a cheap Magic 8-ball, can you believe that? I zapped him with a Jelly-Legs Jinx, just like Hermione would - and it says to look in my past. My past, huh? ++Boromir88

So....
I have to admit that the only thing I found worth remarking so far is Brinniel dedicating half of her last post to making excuses why she won't catch a wolf today: Quote:

Other than that, I don't know. Gwath's points seem a little forced maybe, but everyone else's behavior looks neither very suspicious nor innocent to me. But the day is still young. Quote:

Popping in before work. I don't have much to observe, except that Gwath points out the obvious. Yes, my post does " exonerate me for voting against Sally and condemn everyone else who does the same". So?
I've had a bad feeling about Boro, and Shasta seems to as well (unless this is just a traditional sort of thing) - I'll keep watching him. He's too clever to obviously slip up, though, so hunches may be what it takes to catch a Boro-wolf. Mac's observation about Brinniel is something I noted as well (regarding calling me a possible lynch candidate), however, the more I think about it, the more straightforward and innocent it looks. Nerwen might be worth looking at more closely, though. She's too experienced , I would think, to suspect someone for making a nonsense post as a test/way of stirring the pot. Oh yes, and so far Macalaure looks innocent to me, if it matters to anyone. I may revise that opinion later. Last edited by Rikae; 09-12-2008 at 04:19 AM. Reason: name bolding |

Just to add, I don't consider Gwath's stating the obvious to be wolfish. I've seen an innocent Gwath do similar things before.
(By the way, this is an awfully quiet village! The reason I didn't vote this morning was I thought I wouldn't possibly have time to catch up, but there were only a handful of posts... ) |

Well I enjoyed a lie-in this morning, and since then I've been attending to Iggle Piggle
However, let's get the show on the road! Initial Impressions- Those who are innocent to me seem to be Rikae, Nerwen, Shasta. However right now, Brinniel, Boro and Fea seem fishy. The rest are flying under the radar which in itself is wolfy. I am running off my spidey sense right now so let's see what lunchtime brings... Meanwhile, Makka Pakka is waiting for me to go and help wash some stones.

OK Nogrod, I didn't cast suspicion on you then - I merely didn't want you tampering with my genes - NOT the same thing. People misrepresenting me always raises my alarm bells so I am NOW suspicious of you.
As for Boromir .... I am not sure yet - but I know there have been plenty of times when innocent Boromir has stirred up day ones and got himself lynched for his trouble and there is enough History between him and Fea for that not to be an issue in itself (I moderated the Boro-seer game ). However I know they are both capable of being sneaky confident wolves. I am going to hang fire on both til I have heard more. More inclined to suspect the quiet at the moment .

Oh yes, I almost forgot...I have a tendency to get lynched on the rare Days I'm not there to defend myself.
Seriously, I wish I had more time to think things out but I overslept so I have even less time than I expected. I can't be late to my first class, so I need to vote now. I promise if I'm still around, I'll actually be able to analyse and participate come toMorrow. So, my vote: *writes down her vote and shows it to the crowd Survivor-style* ++Mac Call it a backlash vote or whatever, but I can't help but feel uncomfortable about someone when they make a case against me based on a few short statements I made...especially when he knows I won't be around later to defend myself. I don't know if there'll be any accuracy in my vote, but I'm out of time and he's the first name that came up. Sorry mate. And again, apologies that I can't be around for deadline. I hate when that happens.

I wish I could stick around and participate in the discussion, but I have to run off. I'll be back in time for the deadline, but I just wanted to make it clear that I'm not trying to be extra-quiet and slide under the radar. It's inadvertent.

Mildly suspicious:
Brinn - I still think her comments were strange, but apparently I'm the only one. So, yeah... Fea - Her tone following Boro's comments is a bit too defensive for my liking. Not much, but enough to make her mildly suspicious. Gwath - tense No idea: Boro - Stirs the pot, which is good. Usually a wolf wouldn't want to step on too many toes right from the beginning on, but since I'm on the receiving side of his suspicion, I'm a little wary. CoD - *shrug* Isabell - more *shrug* Lal - Not sure, could be anything Nerwen - Throws mild suspicion into each direction. I need to read more of her before I can form any opinion. Nilp - even more *shrug* Sally - no hunch whatsoever Mildly innocent: Mith - I usually can't get a read on Mith, so I'm careful. So far, however, she seems innocentish. Nogrod - quite sensible, although he hasn't said much yet. Rikae - no alarms Shasta - no red flags Quote:

Hmm...hmmm....
Day One, as was expected, has provided nothing. I am disappointed in you, Day One. Shame on you for performing only up to expectations. I cannot have lazy good-fer-nothin's lazing about at the Grand Opening of Cluny's Con! You are almost as bad as Cheesethief, except he died to keep me alive... /end IC Talk...for now Anywho, other than that nefarious Day One, I've got no real suspicions. I guess I could make an attempt at imagined ones. Rikae and...umm...Mac...yess...they are suspicious to me. Or maybe...Boromir. Bah...I do hope Day Two goes better. I've really got nothin'. I really don't want to go out on a limb and vote to kill someone who, in all likelihood, will be innocent. I've toyed with the idea of voting for Day One, as it is pure evil and will keep a likely innocent in the game at least a night longer. But then again...we could get lucky. I shall wait a little longer to vote...maybe I'll figure something out. Edit: Well, I'm sticking to my guns. No random lynchings. I need something of substance. ++Day One Last edited by CaptainofDespair; 09-12-2008 at 08:32 AM. Reason: Voting |

Oh, come on. Yes, half-random Day 1 votes aren't great, but not voting at all doesn't get us anywhere.
Also, those half-random votes often bring some insights with them on Day 2, and you have just elegantly dodged that for yourself... |

Checking in here. Sorry I'm late, I had to finish laying the smackdown on a pack of dragons.
Here's my take on all this so far: Boro seems innocent to me. Like someone said, I don't think a wolf would cause this much controversy early in the match. Brin seems a little off to me, as does the Captain. Gwath and Mac both look fine by me. So that's about all I got right now. I'll be back with my vote. EDIT: crossed with Boro

Boro, you of all people should know what assumptions do. And you're making a great many of them.
It's a pity Phantom isn't playing. I think you'd be perfect for a new rival, though.

Okay. I finally got home. I think I have a couple of things to say at last..
Btw. Boro, you should visit my Spore when it's ready. There the evolutionary mechanism will be trimmed with 100% causality with no errors eg. the mutations are preplanned and will execute themselves as supervised. That's intelligent design... Your empirical machine seems to be a bit rusty & random.

First. Boro asked me what I thought of Rikae's declaration of ordinariness. Well, I'm mainly interested in the motive behind that move. I mean making that kind of opening isn't exactly the most hilarious joke or the most ingenious or fresh move. So why would Rikae make it? Also it's hard to see it as a spontaneous reaction to anything (when one reacts spontaneously one may let that kind of banalities out from her keyboard) as she had known her role almost two days altready and she opened her first post with it.
Now I do sympathise with Rikae if she is an innocent indeed as I really felt relaxed and overwhelmingly happy when I heard I was innocent in the last game after a long period of special roles. But to say it aloud in your first post... So why? I wouldn't like to lynch her for that but the declaration certainly raises eyebrows. Quote:

Secondly this one from Gwath discussing Rikae caught my eye and the things he has been doing after it have raised my alarms a bit more. (underlining mine)
Quote:
But it gets more interesting. Nerwen pointed out that Gwath knows about Rikae playing a wolf and wondered why Gwath bothered to ask about it? And Gwath answered: Quote:
But the last one is the one I got worried about. Quote:
