Okay. First a look at the one-posters...
Kath came early to say: "doesn't seem much to post about yet so I'll be lurking". I think I have said this about thousand times but I do still dislike the tactics of posting once (or not at all) on Day1 and getting through with it leaving the dirty work and especially the risk of a lynch to be carried by others. I could vote her on principle. Gollum complained about there being three pages (sic!). Said he had a "horrible suspicion" on Bowie. Said: "Well, this is my daily post. Enjoy, everyone." Well, I didn't enjoy it and if he intends to post only once per Day with that quality I might be ready to make one shot in the dark into that direction. Shasta lightly / half-banterishly threathened tp and Boro and promised to be more verbal later. I'm willing to give him a chance to prove his word. Cailineomer. It's nice to see that double-person back in the games and they should stay. Although it must be said that even if their post was amusing it was totally devoid of any content, and the vote was if not pure evil then at least serving evil interests. So from these four I could vote for Kath or Gollum. But I still hope to be able to find a bit more probable wolves...

Interestingly both Gwath and Sally who are pretty high on the post count have been careful enough not to voice a single suspicion against anyone. Their posting has been mainly banter or then in Sally's case saying why (pretty random reasons) she wants some to live and in Gwath's case defending himself from basically non-existent accusations.
References "WW-manual", rule no.7 - the one I always manage not to obey - "be nice to many enough people or at least don't suspect too many at the same time if you wish to live long as people will feel bad when suspected and are thus more prone to vote for you". "Ways to catch a werewolf", hint no.5: "a werewolf feels s/he is suspected and accused all the time - which is just natural as they live in a hostile environment anyway - so they tend to overreact to even small suspicions feeling the need to defend themselves - also they tend to be a wee bit grumpy when discussed".

So I would adjust that to say that werewolves become hostile over little suspicions, but it's usually ordos who overreact to major ones.

From Menel I get quite innocent vibes. Or at least he plays like he plays and that has sent him to the gallows so many times ealy on just showing him innocent. So I wouldn't like to continue that tradition.
Ilya is hard one to interpret. I'm not sure it merits lynching yet but constant watch to be sure. Bowie has played quite a hunker-down game as well so far but his remarks on not caring about the cobbler on Day1 (and especially that which followed: "I think it's a Day 2 problem. And then we kill them") do seem a bit fishy. Now that I think of it the "cobbler is not Day1 problem" -thing could be counted as just being unthoughtful but the quote in brackets indeed started to bother me a lot more... Brinn has been veery-very careful. Like she always is. The problem is that she can pull that most innocent-looking air also when a wolf. But she shouldn't be lynched at least toDay I say. Auch... have to vote in a minute... (I'm going to choir rehersals which I somehow find a most fitting thing indeed)

Okay. Gwath has also been lynched on Day1 a few times for playing the way he does so I'm a bit reluctant to help bringing that decision on once again so I will go for
++ Sally She can be amusing throughout the game but she can also kill people at Night under that playful appearance. I might have gone for Bowie as well but this is his second game (if I'm right) so let's see how he will fare later in the game, well at least toMorrow. Fea: adjustement accepted.

sally I can see, she's been hanging around but hasn't quite made a mark yet. Even with providing amusement, that typically is stuff that gets forgotten. I present to you exit polls of favorite LOTR characters immediately after watching FOTR and from an on-line survey 6 months later Quote:

There is a growth in Aragorn, Sam, Gandalf, these characters have staying power, they are the strong characters. While the hot (Legolas) and funny (Gimli) drop significantly - amusement provides no significant staying power. These are the ones who go forgotten after a period of time. And someone wanting to be forgotten worries me. sally, wishing to amuse us, make us feel good with you, while we spin around in circles, eh? Edit: fixing the tables and crossing with Nogrod

Feanor list no make Wild Man feel any better. Feanor suspect nobody. Feanor give no real information. Frivolous.
Menel. Post 32 - Say no lynch the tricksies. No why. Post 40 - Aganzir banter. No want triple lynch. This can be critic-thought, but can be innocent-thought. Post 64 - Agree cobbler great danger. Say perhaps phantom cobbler. Post 92 - Ask Mac why Mac find Menel suspicious. Nazgul banter. Wild Man still not comfortable. Seem present, but careful, accuse nobody. But Nogrod say this normal. Nogrod vote Sally. Wild Man say: fair. But Wild Man think Kath-Gollum better choice. Therefore Wild Man have many choice for vote. Fea-Kath-Gollum, all no vote. Menel, one vote, but Wild Man less willing to vote. |

Who's in my time zone...
Mac- deadline's noon, right? Day one votes are always a pot shot anyway. I know I'll not be voting; Lariren (newbie) Kath (no red flags raised at the mo') Shasta or Nog (I need boys around who think in a more streamlined manner than me) the phantom (because come day three, I'm going to want a plan from him. ) Bowie or Mac (no warning bells a'ringin') TGWBWild (he's funny) B88 (because he tried so hard to give me a filibuster...) Cailineomer (because it would amuse me if xe was singularly both lovers at once) Which leaves me with Sally Ilya Brinniel Gwath Meneltarmacil Gollum the Great I'm tempted to vote Brinn for the whole evil seer/good seer thing in Di's game. But as that doesn't really pertain to this game... I don't really know. I'll ponder (and by ponder I mean try to find a pair of great boots online) and come back in a bit.

Nogrod voted? Nogrod voted first? Nogrod voted hours before the deadline....

Lariren gets the complimentary pass for today, we also serve a complimentary continental breakfast too. There's even waffles!
Every one not named Mith Lariren tgwbs the phantom Fea Menel Nogrod Cailin is eligible for a vote from me. I'm out for lunch and will return before the dead line. Edit: By eligible I obviously mean "legible," wow that was worse than balogna. And I'm not even sure if that word can be used in the way I'm trying to use it. Edit 2: Wait scratch that, I do mean "eligible" that is a word, it's one of those that just don't look right.

So Guilty Mac. It's just that those two comments make me feel uneasy. Nog. I don't know - there's just something I don't like. His question/accusation against Gwath was rather bad. Besides I think it was phrased rather like an accusation, and later he accused Gwath of taking it too seriously. Also I don't like his 'double lynch on day 1 would be riskier for the critics than innocents' logic. Innocent tgwbs is listed as innocent because he's too funny to be lynched today. Boro. He's here for now although my opinion is subject to change if need be. Gwath. After last game I didn't imagine I'd be doing this, but he looks quite innocent. Besides Nog's question/accusation wasn't the best one I've seen. Ilya. Doesn't give off any suspicious vibes yet. Brinn. I'm still somewhat uncertain if I like her but she's on my innocent list for now. At least there hasn't really been anything that I would have disagreed with her on yet. Neither phantom. I won't concentrate on him for now. Gollum Menel. I'm not that worried but I'm not sure enough to label him as innocent either. Fea. She hasn't got a role on day one. Cailíneomer. Amusing for sure though. sally Lari Kath Shasta Bowie. I've been humming Life on Mars? in my head the whole day but I guess it's rather my own fault for coming up with that nickname. Okay I've read through the thread and am on page four now so let's see. I think sally is being her normal self (which of course indicates nothing). Usually she doesn't have any real accusations on day one yet. What about me Fea?

Haha whatever Nogbod, you just want to vote for me because I finally got to kill you early last game.
Ahem, and back to this one. I've been keeping up with events during the day but haven't really thought about anything properly yet. I'll go read through the thread with a more analytical mind and see if anything pops up.

I knew I missed somebody when I counted!
I just couldn't figure it out without checking, and I was being a little bit lazy, and (I'm also at work) patrons came in and needed me so I got distracted. Agan gets a free pass for making me want to sing 'Be Prepared' really loudly.

As for who I suspect, I’m going to try to do it sort of in song:
I have confidence in TGWBS I have confidence in Sally I have confidence the phantom is entertaining! As you can see I have no confidence in my parody! So that being said/sang. I’ll go through the rest: Ilya – For some reason her post that was slightly confusing about the lovers made me a little suspicious. Of her being what, I’m not sure, but that she does have a more active roll. Brinniel –Seems innocent to me. Fea- Admitted to being a wolf, but then said that that would make her not a wolf. Pretty much keeping my eye on her. Could secretly be the diva. Kath - Have no comment on therefore think is innocent. Aganzir – No idea there. Gwath – Is very vocal and slightly defensive about it. Leads me to be slightly suspicious of his intents. Shasta – I will keep alive because he mentioned Movies in Fifteen Minutes. Therefore is awesome. Nogrod – Seems to be very observant, gives me the idea that he could possibly be the seer. Meneltarmacil – I’m suspicious about. For no other real reason than am. Strongbow - Nothing. Macalaure – No idea. But I have a feeling I should be suspicious(if only based on the conversations/sigs that I've seen). Gollum the Great – I wish I could say something but got nothing. Boro – In another canidate for the seer. But entertaining as well. Cailineomer – Again no idea. That’s what I have to say. I leaning towards voting for Ilya for just my suspicions.

Wild Man make boo-boo. Great Mother-Goddess extent deadline. Ergo, real deadline now little under two man-hour away.
Wild Man make following thought process: Not vote gollum, for not know him. Not know if quiet is normal. Kill him may waste ordinary life. Not vote Fea. Appetite for lynch Fea small. Therefore vote waste. Therefore Wild Man say to self: vote Kath! Now Kath come. Kath say she post again perhaps. Therefore cannot yet vote Kath. |

Note re Walter Plinge for agan et alia
The cobbler does not dream he spies. And no he can't spy on himself - he may find out through his spying who the wolves are but the wolves will have to guess. And if he goes the information he holds will not be transmitted becasue he won't be able to make the drop.

Okay...
Fea, Nogrod, Mac, and Boro are all up to something. Of course that doesn't mean we should lynch them. They might even be Ordos purposefully looking like they're up to something in order to draw a Night-kill. But then again, perhaps one of them is the deadly Cobbler. And one is a Critic. But really, I'm not ready to try lynching one of them on Day 1. I want to see more of them, and I want to see who the Critics attempt to kill. Right now I'm tempted to do a Nogrod and consider voting on principle. I won't be following his vote for Sally though. I very much want to see her live at least two more days. Let her make some accusations and such.

In a way I don't know about Mac... Because the scary comments are things I could very well say (and probably have) as an innocent. But they're still so suspicious-looking.
Okay thanks Mith. It would just have been a nice cobbler tactics to spy on her/himself in the beginning and pass the information to the wolves. edit: xed with phantom

Just thoughts here...
I was thinking that maybe the Cobbler might want to look like the Divo/Diva in a small way, but obvious enough for a team of Wolves and a couple villagers to spot. Then the Wolves would think, "That's probably the Divo, we don't want to waste a kill there", and the Seer thinks, "That's probably the Divo, I don't want to waste a dream there", and the villagers think, "That's probably the Divo, I definitely don't want to risk lynching him." Where as the real Divo might think, "They look like they might be hinting they're the Divo. Should I step out? But maybe it's one of the Wolves trying to draw me out. And maybe it's the Seer cleverly looking like the Divo. I'm not sure if I should challenge." And in the meantime, the Cobbler skates by free through all phases. And at least one of the Wolves could put on a Divo show as well, in order to avoid lynching. And it wouldn't be the least bit suspicious when they're still alive the next day, because the Wolves can't kill the Divo. And possibly the Seer wouldn't want to spend a dream on them either because why waste a dream on someone who's probably known already? Yeah... Lots of interesting things could happen here.

By the way, I can remember someone talking about the Divo earlier. Why did we decide he should stay hidden?
I mean, it's not like the Wolves can kill him. And if revealed that would keep the baddies from running the little Divo ploys I noted above. Bleh... I can't think the best now. It's morning. My mind doesn't hit full operation until at least six in the evening.

Currently suspicious of:
Nogrod, for his really contrived case against me. I'm not going to vote him just yet because of what happened last time we tangled. Lariren, who says a great deal of nothing (mostly summaries and paraphrases). She is a new player, and so I'm going to need more time to decide whether it's just a natural lack of confidence or something more sinister. Heck, I've changed my mind. ++Nogrod

A little code talk...

Hey phantom, did you spot that thing in that post of Nog's that I spotted?

For the code talk? Or just on principle?
About the obscure question- the phantom said something (not actually about Nogrod), and I'm curious to see if I was catching something or if I was making it all up. So phantom - that thing you said. Did you mean it? Do you know what I'm talking about? Should I just shut up and hibernate and pretend it's not sleeting?

All right. When you say "that thing you said"... I'm wondering which thing you caught. I've said several things. Was my comment latching onto something someone else said, or was it a stand alone comment, or was it latched onto by someone else later, or was it spoken directly to someone? Which of those four?
