Because I have enough faith in his ability to figure out why, and because there's always a really great chance that I'm right.

Isabellkya · 09-12-2008, 10:04 AM

*a flute playing can be heard*

Boro, I could see Shasta revenge voting you. Since it is Day 1, there isn't much of a dire need to get an execution on a [s]Shinma[/s] Wolf toDay. Sure, it would be nice, but I don't think it HAS TO HAPPEN. Though, it begs the question, did you two not play together in a game after the Ranger debacle?

I can sympathize with Brin, I don't think it necessarily means she is hiding something. But being accused (sometimes leading to a bandwagon) when you aren't there to defend yourself, is never nice.
Though, I can't see that Mac was doing it for the sole purpose that she wouldn't be here around deadline time.

*music fades*

X'd with Nogrod and Fea.

Nogrod · 09-12-2008, 10:08 AM

Btw. This Con is not only quiet in regard of the quantity of speech but also in quality. Too many I think have gotten through this Day with no effort at all just bantering or being IC. And to top it: the old "Day1 hater's club" has clearly been re-established from the grave where it should have stayed for ever after!

Anyway. I think the voting stands now at:

Rikae -> Sally
Shasta -> Boro
Brinn -> Mac
Gwath -> Rikae
McCaber -> CoD
Lalwendë -> Brinn

So six votes, six candidates...

EDIT: X'd with Isabell & Fea...

Corrected Vote-count:

Rikae -> Sally
Shasta -> Boro
Brinn -> Mac
Gwath -> Rikae
McCaber -> CoD
Lalwendë -> Brinn
Fëa -> Boro 2

I looked Mith and my posts are 4 minutes apart. Now Mith's post is short, but I wouldn't throw out the possibility of a cross posting. (I don't always go back and edit to say who I crossed with). So, Mith, perhaps you would be kind to share...and be honest?

Nogrod: 1.5 points

Yes. That was a cross post - I didn't flag it because I didn't think it was relevant. I appreciate that Nogrod is likely to be paranoid about me but that post was more about my opposition to GMO in my youth than the game. I know next to nothing about SciFi / Fantasy other than Tolkien but I do have a layman's interest in genetics.

Because you're not satisfied until I'm dead, and even when the narrator reveals I'm innocent, you still think it was a conspiracy and I was evil all along?

Mithalwen · 09-12-2008, 10:18 AM

For what it's worth I think Boro may be having too much fun to be a wolf - I think he might be a bit more restrained. Be a shame to lose someone who is talking though.

He could be the cobbler though or simply being an agent provacateur. Fea is playing the Phantom. Need to have another through and see if there are no IC posts from Lal et alia

Brinniel · 09-12-2008, 10:20 AM

Just checking in to say I'm back...I know I made a big deal about how I wouldn't be here for deadline and I honestly thought I wouldn't. But my teacher let us out of class a whole whopping hour and a half early (it's a 4 hour class).

I figured being the first day I'd get out of class a little early, but was definitely not expecting that early. Maybe I should've taken the risk and not voted at all...but knowing how my luck goes, if I had done that I wouldn't have been back before deadline.

Okay, I still need to go back and catch up on what I missed. Then I'll see if I can contribute anything before deadline.

Kath · 09-12-2008, 10:23 AM

.

No they didn't . And I do suspect a spite vote there. I know Shasta was done up like a kipper there but I thought he was bigger than that. So it could be a cover....

satansaloser2005 · 09-12-2008, 10:28 AM

My top four(ish) votees:
Boro: he just seems too together, I mean it's day one but he seems....blah, I should have had a longer nap. Alternatively, I know he's a slick little son of a Slitheen so if he worries me a little he worries me a lot, know what I mean?

Captain: I've played with a few Captains before, and it's always interesting. Harkness always wants to "meet new people" and that creepy woman from UNIT had an obsession with left-hand turns. This Captain? Votes, but doesn't. At the same time, though, I've never played with Captain before, so I'll just leave this alone, at least for toDay.

Brinn: Overapologizingish. Basically just covering my bases.

Rikae: Disregarding the fact that she voted me. "I'm voting (insert name here) but if people jump onto it they're probably wolves." Hmmmm....let's consider this shall we?

My first choice is probably Boro, with the other three close behindish and a few others that I didn't have time to mention. And I still didn't get my nap, dang it.

EDIT: x'd with Fea

EDIT #2: Sorry. That should be x'd SINCE Fea. Fea's vote, to be exact. Just so it's clear.

Macalaure · 09-12-2008, 10:28 AM

Just got back way later than expected and with 15 minutes left til deadline (we're going by real time, not Downs time, right?).

I don't think he's the wolf because he's all over the place and not really following any scent trails. So is Rikae. So is Nogrod.

I can't make you out this time, though that does lead me to think you might have a special role

This is normally the point where I would start suspecting you for buttering up to me, but I know if you truly were a wolf you would be 100% taking advantage of this oppurtunity to lynch me right now.

Edit: crossed with Lal...now would she defend me if she was a wolf, or seize the oppurtunity to lynch me now? hmm...

Nogrod · 09-12-2008, 10:34 AM

Mith: it is already clear that I read your post back there the wrong way as you suspecting me. So why are you coming back to it the second time?

And anyway. That was early in the Day with about twenty posts made in total (almost everyone of them being only joking & banter). I think both you Mith (explaining your post many times) and Boro (making that "empirical device" where you consider I'm one who suspects you) are making a mountain out of a molehill here. (Yes Mith, I didn't consider your posts as cross-posts and that was my carelessness not to look at the timestamps and think about the possibility. Yes.)

But your posts were the only ones there was anything even remotely looking like saying something that gets the game forwards at that point of the game. Now after people have contributed more there clearly are better points to be made - and it was obvious back then in the beginning of the Day. But your insistence on coming back to those early hour "suspicions" doesn't make me too happy about you two.

But I'm even more unhappy with those who just fly straight through the banter-radar or under any radar just not appearing or not contributing.

And I have a battle with myself about Gwath. He looks wolvish to me and I think I have plausible reasons and so I should trust my own judgement. But I've been wrong with him so many times... Unless there is a "submarine" we can agree on or any better cases to come forwards, or if I have to try and save someone I think is clearly less guilty than someone else, I'm considering of voting Gwath.

EDIT: X'd from Sally
EDIT2: ... oops... from Boro...

About 15-16 minutes more I think...

Macalaure · 09-12-2008, 10:40 AM

I'll re-revise my opinion on Boro: I think he's innocent.

McCaber seems more or less fine.

Nogrod... a slight furry feeling about him now, but can't point to it. Then again, I always have a slight furry feeling about him, so maybe it's nothing. Certainly not enough to justify a vote. Interesting points on Gwath.

Sally seems more innocentish than before.

I hadn't really noticed the difference between Downs time and my clock time before. xD

It could definately be a cover, since people have mentioned they should listen to Shasta more; could be a good opening for a Wolfie bandwagon to follow. But, I would like to say he wouldn't be that risky on Day one - but I was just evil with him on another forum and had to slap his hand from making rash decisions. xD
I am off now..so, I suppose this is a throw away vote at best..

++CoD

X'd since Lalwende's 94

Kath · 09-12-2008, 10:41 AM

Right, this will obviously have to be speedy. Mac's points on Brinn were quite good, I can see where he's got that from. Her later 'defense' feels quite forced too. Mith is a teeny bit over the top when it comes to reacting to suspicion but not enough to worry about it I think. Not sure where the Boro-hate is coming from but I've been really skim reading so I may have just missed that.

So I'm thinking it has to be Brinn right now.

Oh blimey now I am creeped - I was thinking this afternoon you might be guilty because you hadn't accused me of sucking up to you ..though of course I hadn't said I thought you were innocent at that point....

Shastanis Althreduin · 09-12-2008, 10:44 AM

Mith - It was a cover.

I do actually think he's suspicious, but haven't had time to elaborate on why. I've applied for a Time-Turner to help get me through all my classes, but it hasn't arrived yet.

Although I must admit, being able to vote Boro is rather sweetly ironic.

Boro, if you and I both live through the night, hopefully since it's the weekend I'll be able to explain why I voted you in more detail.

Brinniel · 09-12-2008, 10:45 AM

Am I overapologising? Hmm...well, I guess I kinda am. But I'm only putting a half-hearted effort into toDay (I can't help it, I'm sleepy) and I feel bad when I don't give 100%. Btw, that "sorry mate" comment when I voted Mac was supposed to be in-character. I was in a rush so I don't think I made it clear.

My apologies. I mean, sorr...oh crap...I'm doing it again.

I don't know why everyone finds Boromir so suspicious. He's making the most sense out of everyone...doesn't mean he's necessarily innocent, but I think lynching him on Day 1 would be a mistake.

I think Nogrod might be reading too much into Gwath's statements...

EDIT: X-ed with a million-gazillion posts...

Macalaure · 09-12-2008, 10:45 AM

I'm rather torn on Brinniel right now. At first, I was confident my points were good. Then a couple of people told me off, and I started doubting them. Now a couple of people tell me they were good or have similar thoughts.

Brinn, since you're here now, would you say in a line or two about it?

edit: obviously, crossed with Brin (and a few others)

Fair enough Shasta.

Mac, I bet you don't need me saying this because you already know it, but I'm going to anyway...maybe you got a couple wolfies latching on to an easy choice. Either that you have ordinaries who think you've made the best "case" today.

I have my eye on Gwathagor, but not having had the pleasure of sharing a game before I have no previous knowledge to go on. I shall wait and see.

*slaps* Oi, no cigarettes. Not all of us have respiratory bypass systems, THanks.

I agree. I'm between Boro and Brinn myself, unless something happens in these last ten(ish) minutes. I'd like to figure out what Captain's up to so I'm not too keen on that route. Bah, I'll send this and see what time the Downs says it is, then I may comment more.

I don't really know what to say. I'm too lazy and tired to come up with a proper defense. All I can say is that the first Day lynchee is almost always innocent and it seems toDay I am the target (don't worry I'm not the seer). Of course I don't want to die but I don't really know what I can say to change people's minds.

Mith is a teeny bit over the top when it comes to reacting to suspicion but not enough to worry about it I think. Not sure where the Boro-hate is coming from but I've been really skim reading so I may have just missed that. So I'm thinking it has to be Brinn right now. ++BRINN __________________ “If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.”

Might go back and have a look at the whole Boro thing. __________________ “If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.”

I do actually think he's suspicious, but haven't had time to elaborate on why. I've applied for a Time-Turner to help get me through all my classes, but it hasn't arrived yet. Although I must admit, being able to vote Boro is rather sweetly ironic. Boro, if you and I both live through the night, hopefully since it's the weekend I'll be able to explain why I voted you in more detail. __________________ Shasta– ...

Hmm...well, I guess I kinda am. But I'm only putting a half-hearted effort into toDay (I can't help it, I'm sleepy) and I feel bad when I don't give 100%. Btw, that "sorry mate" comment when I voted Mac was supposed to be in-character. I was in a rush so I don't think I made it clear. My apologies. I mean, sorr...oh crap...I'm doing it again. I don't know why everyone finds Boromir so suspicious. He's making the most sense out of everyone...doesn't mean he's necessarily innocent, but I think lynching him on Day 1 would be a mistake. I think Nogrod might be reading too much into Gwath's statements... EDIT: X-ed with a million-gazillion posts... __________________ Nolite te bastardes carborundorum

Then a couple of people told me off, and I started doubting them. Now a couple of people tell me they were good or have similar thoughts. Brinn, since you're here now, would you say in a line or two about it? edit: obviously, crossed with Brin (and a few others)
