Tol-in-Gaurhoth XX: Wereorc I: The elves cannot hide themselves much longer.

[Nogrod]

Update:

Diamond 2
Nogrod 2
Jenny 3

[Azaelia of Willowbottom]

You left this out: Grendelien just voted.

edit: cross-posts flying thick and fast here... cross-posted with Nogrod

[Grendelien]

You're right, Nogrod, Azaelia, and Sleepy, I don't know what I was thinking...if Jenny's innocent, then we know Azaelia was lying...but I trust Azaelia's truthful!

[Azaelia of Willowbottom]

I am not lying. As Nogrod said, what good would it do? I'd just turn out to be the first unanimous lynchee in the history of TIG.

I think this shaman thing is a bum deal: the reward is death, whichever way you look at it.

Actually, it's been pretty fun. I like the twist.

[Nogrod]

1. Kitanna --> Diamond (Diamond 1)
2. Spawn --> Nogrod (Diamond 1, Nogrod 1)
3. Celuien --> Azaelia (Diamond 1, Nogrod 1, Azaelia 1)
4. Roa --> Kitanna (Diamond 1, Nogrod 1, Azaelia 1, Kitanna 1)
5 Naria --> Sleepy Ranger (Diamond 1, Nogrod 1, Azaelia 1, Kitanna 1, Sleepy 1)
6. Legolas --> Diamond (Diamond 2, Nogrod 1, Azaelia 1, Kitanna 1, Sleepy 1)
7. Caran --> Nogrod (Diamond 2, Nogrod 2, Azaelia 1, Kitanna 1, Sleepy 1)
8. Sleepy --> Spawn (Diamond 2, Nogrod 2, Azaelia 1, Kitanna 1, Sleepy 1, Spawn 1)
9. Zali --> Jenny (Diamond 2, Nogrod 2, Azaelia 1, Kitanna 1, Sleepy 1, Spawn 1, Jenny 1)
10. Nogrod --> Jenny (Diamond 2, Nogrod 2, Azaelia 1, Kitanna 1, Sleepy 1, Spawn 1, Jenny 2)
11. Grendelien --> Jenny (Diamond 2, Nogrod 2, Azaelia 1, Kitanna 1, Sleepy 1, Spawn 1, Jenny 3)

So this means:
Diamond 2
Nogrod 2
Jenny 3

Not voted:
Jenny, Findëasëa, Diamond

[Diamond18]

Well... haven't done my review of the day quite yet, but I think I'm more than willing to join Zali in voting for Jenny. My bad feeling about her from yesterDay has not gone away, only increased, and this is just confirmation that it's more than an automatic bias on my part. It jives with the way I was leaning. Earlier I had decided to hold off on going after Jenny till later; but with a dreamer to back it up, no time like the present. So:

+ + JennyHallu

And, if Jenny does indeed prove guilty, Zali can be crossed off everyone's suspicious list. We have a Ranger to protect her tonight, so I'm exuberant and hopeful at the moment.

Edit: Xposted with, well, lots.

Well done Zali! I appreciate your playing for the village!

You will be our hero!

EDIT: X-posted with Diamond. Let's hope the best with the ranger...

[Sleepy Ranger]

Azaelia! You reek of awesomeness! Good job using one of my descriptions to reveal the dream!

I'm pretty sure you'll last the night. I expect either Nogrod or Diamond will not be with us in the morning but then again I am, hopefully wrong. Both would be too valuable to lose yet if either were an orc then it could be messy but with JennyHallu I'd say we've knocked off one of their power players.

Good Work!

[Grendelien]

Nogrod's right, Azaelia! Your revelation was very noble and self-sacrificing!

[Azaelia of Willowbottom]

Ah, the bitter sting of irony.

~Your friendly neighborhood ranger

ETA: I must have a death wish.

Yes. And the orcs will have tough times during the night!

Oh. Yuck. *Shhhh! Don't let them know that! Otherwise they might have tried killing someone else and waiting till the next Night to kill you!!!!*

Oh well, too late now. *sigh*

I was going to say to Sleepy -- I really don't think I'm potential Orc meat, seeing as I've been the early leader in lynch votes both days. Now I know I'm really not going to die toNight.

Oh you ninny! You ninny, ninny, ninny! If you hadn't revealed that you were the ranger the orcs may have left you alone thinking that the ranger would protect you! Azaelia, you ninny... you did good but you're still a ninny!

[Findëasëa]

good job Azaelia. thanks for being a team player.

I considered keeping my big mouth shut, but decided it was a foregone conclusion.

I was sort of hoping everyone would decide I ought to be lynched toDay so that I could ratchet up the melodrama even more than I did just now.

[Azaelia of Willowbottom]

*siiigh* ninny, I am.

what an idiot.

*crawls off to hide in shame*

[Diamond18]

Wait, who did you protect Night 1, Zali? It would be helpful to have an innocent confirmed for toMorrow's deliberations. Unless you think this would only guaruntee his/her death the next night. I don't know, I'd really like to have a known innocent we'll all know not to lynch toMorrow.

[Azaelia of Willowbottom]

Dancing Spawn.

I don't think it makes any difference to reveal: an attempt was already made on her life once...the wolves know she's innocent, and now the rest of you all know, too.

and Sleepy, I did wonder about it before typing, but decided it would make no difference.

*sigh*

I've got to stop getting so emotionally twisted into these games.

Well, I know one thing. I NEVER want to be a seer. I don't do subtlety very well.

[JennyHallu]

Hmm...seems everything is going to plan, then, Zali! Good luck to you two without me!

And subtlety was foiled: Jenny plays too well.

Why thank you! And to think I barely posted.

There are two orcs left. They all have more than one word to their name, and are sneaky sneaky. May they kill you all! And trust me, the transformation process is REALLY odd, though he likes the arms. The other one is less fond, but more used to the role.

No need for an orc to kill a dreamer, boys and girls, what are the odds he/she gets a dream again? Kill someone really threatening, like Spawn, Roa, Nogrod, or Diamond.

Hmm...have I said anything useful? Don't think so. Here, another thing for you to uselessly analyse:

++Grendelien, for the joyful friendship we've been developing.

And for my final act, back to character:

YOU'RE ALL GOING TO DIE! Thanks to my friends, of course. You poor villagers haven't got a chance.

Only one thing left: Farael, I am in your hands.

Was I ever wrong... well in my mind Nogrod is innocent as well now. Diamond has been innocent according to me since Day 1... I really don't know who to look at it now, Roa perhaps?

[Nogrod]

The wisdom of all this last minute-stuff will be seen during the night... I hope we have confused the orcs enough by now...

[JennyHallu]

Oh and Findesea is a wolf.

[JennyHallu]

Naria is an orc.

[Azaelia of Willowbottom]

I don't suppose that if I lied and said right now that I was lying about being the ranger, it would make any difference?

Thought not.

ah well. Cheers, all.

I wouldn't have revealed Spawn if she wasn't so high on everyone's suspect list...maybe I've bought her some time.

Me and my big mouth.

Well, here's hoping my death is cool.

[Diamond18]

Awesome. Thanks, Zali. *crosses Spawn off her list with a flourish* You've been extremely helpful -- protecting the right person night one (what are the chances!) and bagging us Jenny (though thanks also goes to our unknown Shaman for that). Probably by admitting you are the Ranger you have protected Spawn a second Night, for if the Orcs decided to hold off on you they probably would have gone for her again. So while we lose you early, we get a known innocent Spawn toMorrow. Things are still looking pretty good.

[Sleepy Ranger]

Nogrod, I tell you this since I trust you. Go over JennyHallu's posts (skip the last maybe) and make a list of people and how much shes mentioned/suspected them. Try and work something up with that, I think I have a plan.

[JennyHallu]

Good luck...I made like 6 posts

But my dear, this is Sleepy Ranger and when Sleepy Ranger wants to he can do some pretty crazy stuff. Anyway I'd say we quit spamming the thread with all these one-liners. You're dead, whoop-dee-doo, now behave and quit trying to confuse us.

[JennyHallu]

Whoo-hoo!! Misbehaving dead person! Right here!!!

Naria REALLY is an orc, guys.

Would it be overly gloaty for me to sit here saying how much I suspected you? But really, this is big for me, since it's the first dadgummed time my instincts have been spot on. I was afraid to follow them, but still. I want some credit.

Of course, all these crazy posts now that you know you're doomed is going to wreck havoc on the analysis toMorrow. You're going to cackle with mad glee while you read the posts, aren't you? Oh well. Right now I'm just so happy you're an Orc. Yay for instincts!

[Farael]

Guys, please.... I asked you stopped posting at Six CT, eleven GMT..... what happened? I get here half an hour late and I find that the posting has not stopped!! Jenny, your death is coming up.... question is, is Jenny REALLY a wereorc? HAHAHAHA Good job Azaelia, you got them all.

[Farael]

After enjoying a moderate success during the night the village discussed their way into a second lynching.

-----It should be noted here that even though, technically, only the ranger had had a minor victory everyone decided (unilaterally, meaning without the ranger’s approval) to share the glory ----

Opinions were divided and for a moment it seemed that no consensus was going to be achieved. Yet as the day trickled down towards the night, a revelation happened

Azaelia: “I am the ranger and JennyHallu is a wereorc!”

Nogrod: “Hey, wait a minute, the Seer is the one to have dreams, not the ranger!”

Voice outside of the viewer’s field of view: “Tsk…. Nogrod!! There is no seer on this game”

Nogrod: “Yes, of course!! I mean, eh…. The Shaman is the one to have dreams… no, that’s not accurate, anyone can have dreams… I meant eh… oh…. uh…”

SleepyRanger: “Ok, we got it… we’ll ignore that last remark. But then, why did you say you are the ranger, Zali you fool! Having a dream does not make you any more innocent than having a nightmare!”

Naria: “…“ Naria is known for NOT being very talkative on werewolf/orc/cat/penguin/little-furry-creatures-from-alpha-centauri games

Findëasëa : “Wait a moment… if having a dream does not mean you are an innocent… how do we know that you are the ranger at all?”

Azaelia: “Because I protected Spawn last night”

Findëasëa: “You are hopeless… I was trying to give you a way out”

Naria: “…”

Kitanna: “Well, it still does not mean that she is the ranger I guess… or at least, it’s not certain, but I say we lynch JennyHallu anyway”

Caranlondien: “Yeah! If Azaelia is playing some extremely complicated bluff, we’ll know by tomorrow her true colours after lynching [B[Jenny[/B]”

Naria: “mphhhhh…. …. …. .”

Roa_Aoife [Turning around]: “Look Naria, if you are going to talk say something, don’t just try to get our attention and then stay silen… what the heck is that!!!”

It was then the villagers realized Naria was not doing it just to appear on the day’s kill write up. JennyHallu or well…. A black creature with crooked teeth, bloodshot eyes and a horrible, lumpy face… was slowly retreating towards the exit, as the villagers argued with each other. She was dragging Naria as a hostage and had stuffed a scarf that said “The world is going to end, and I’ll help it by killing one bloody elf every night. Really, I hate those elves, all pretty and such. Still, the world is going to end and I will kill them all!! Or at least some, but a woman can dream, can’t she?” (it was a rather long scarf) on Naria’s mouth. The scarf explained Naria’s silence as well as confirming without any doubt that JennyHallu was indeed a wereorc.

The elves ran as fast as only elves can run (without leaving any marks on the snow that covered some patches of the villager for dramatic purposes) and finally corralled JennyHallu before she… or well, it… could escape the village

Azaelia: “I stopped you last night, now I shall finish my job and kill you!”

JennyOrcu: “ugh dar thelar meith dan agggggg”

Celuien: “That’s dark speech… does anyone know what it means?”

Jenny: “No you fools, I was choking in that stupidly long scarf… what was I thinking when I made it? Anyway, Azaelia… I must say the ranger last night caught us by surprise yet you are not him. He was a ten feet tall man, with arms as big as my legs and a chest the size of Sleepy applebarrel.”

Diamond18: “Uh…. I wouldn’t want to sound too argumentative, it’ll get my lynched sooner or later but… there is no-one that fits that description in this village”

Dancing Spawn: “It matters not, I say kill her!!!!!”

Then, as the villagers closed their circle, threatening the wereorc with sharp pointy things, something rather unexpected happened. Jenny threw Naria towards the crowd and did what at the time was misinterpreted as a very sophisticated attempt at doing a double back-flip through a loop while whistling “Star Spangled Banner”. Yet what it actually meant was:

“So long, and thanks for all the flesh”

Then, and to the surprise of everyone involved, JennyHallu sprouted wings and flew away.

Legolas in Spandex: “I might be new at this but… since when do orcs have wings?”

Nogrod: “Well, as far as I know, they don’t”

JennyHallu: “What do you mean we don’t?”

Then, the brief glitch of altered reality was reversed and the wings vanished into thin air. And the air was rather thin as JennyHallu was flying high above the village. What happened next is so gruesome and gory, it will be replaced by some selected scenes of a teenager horror movie. Those movies are never unnecessarily gory and gruesome, right?

It suffices to say that after the fall, the villagers had one wereorc less to worry about. As a celebration, they all decided to throw their sombreros high up in the air. Yet because of an error of judgement of the current winds and the natural strength of the elves, the sombreros flew really high and when they landed a few villagers got some rather nasty bruises. They had thought of having a party all night long to celebrate, yet after the bruising they decided to lock themselves in and pray to Eru they survived the night.

Day 2 has ended, a wereorc has been lynched

There are still 2 wereorcs, 1 Ranger and 1 Shaman living.

Caranlondien: aspiring harpist
JennyHallu: Doomsday prophet
Nogrod: unemployed barber.
Grendelien: village whittler
Findëasëa: paleoelfropologist
Celuien:lampwright
Zali: stringer-of-bows
Diamond: Inept Jewel Smith
Dancing Spawn...: a merchant
Kitanna:The town's gate-keeper
Naria:The grower of magnificent flowers
Sleepy A barrel of apples
Legolas in spandex: Legolass (A movie-Legolas impersonator)
Roa_Aoife aspiring ballad writer

Now dead:
FaraelMod: He dyed… erm I mean died.
GlirdanRepentant werewolf : Choked on an apple. No wonder why werewolves are carnivores.
JennyHalluWereorc: Escaped the village, but could not escape the laws of physics.

A few notes:

Please, I don’t want to sound bitchy but I’d really like to ensure a fair and fun game for everyone who is involved. With regards to my comments today about Roa’s explanation, I appreciate the help, but she used Diamond, who is currently in the game, as an example. Even though she clearly said that it was not her vote, it could be read by others as some kind of hint at some point down the line. For reasons such as that is that I’m asking you let me address those questions. If you want to give me a heads-up, you are more than welcome to, just PM me.

Furthermore, as I can’t be certain that I’ll always be here in time to close off the talking, please unless I say otherwise, stop talking at 6 PM CT, 11 PM GMT. Again, this is to ensure a fair game for everyone.

Having said that, you all are doing grate and I love to see “my” village being so talkative. And such insightful newcomers!!! I’m proud of you all *beams with fatherly love, even though he is neither your father nor a father figure nor he had any actual influence on your werewolfing/orcing/etc style*

Remaining wereorcs you may PM each other and I need your nightly pick

Ranger and Shaman, I also need your picks, but no PMing you two

[Farael]

The villagers woke up the morning after lynching JennyHallu all but convinced that their ranger would have saved them again. They did a quick head-count and noticed there was someone missing this day.

Roa_aoife:”It must be Zali, she declared to be the ranger yesterday, the wereorcs would never let her live”

Azaelia of Willowbottom:”Yes, I’m orc meat already”

[B}Naria[/B]:”But… you are still here, dontcha’ see?”

Azaelia: ”Hey, wait a minute… you are right, I am alive!!”

Nogrod: “Well, so am I, and so is Grendelien as I can see”

Diamond 18: “Guys….”

everyone at the same time: “WHAT?!”

Diamond: “Oh, if you are going to act like that I’m not telling you who is missing”

Findëasëa: “How do you know who the orcs killed last night? Are you a diamond by day and graphite by night?”

(Note of the writer, the chemical composition of diamonds and graphite (pencil lead) is very similar, yet one is a precious stone and the other is a black, cheap thing used to write with)

Diamond: “No, but if you look over there at Spawn’s house, you will notice that the windows are boarded and the door has been replaced by…. What IS that?”

SleepyRanger: “Call me crazy, but it looks like ropes tightly wound together”

The villagers approached Spawn’s house and soon realized the easiest way in would be to cut through the ropes at the door. The knots were tight and it was impossible for the villagers to undo them. Roa_aoife composed what she called an “un-knotting ballad” which was very successful… in enraging two dogs and a bird that was passing by, but made no headway into entering Spawn’s house. Finally, [B]Kitanna[/B[ drew her gate-keeping sword and slashed through the rope. Her first lunge found some unexpected opposition but soon she buried her sword on to the hilt in those wretched ropes. Great would be her surprise when she drew the sword back to find it coated with blood. Desperately, she did her best to clear the ropes, only to find that Dancing Spawn of Ungoliant had been tied to the ropes at the other side.

By her stood a neatly folded paper that said “She could talk her way into the innocent list, but she could not talk her way out of the spider’s net. Too bad she decided to dance rather than to learn how to be a better spider. Your friendly wereorcs.”

Day 3 has started, Dancing Spawn of Ungoliant was killed by the wereorcs over the night.

There are still 2 wereorcs, 1 Ranger and 1 Shaman living.

[Nogrod]

Well. That was nasty indeed. Even though I suspected Spawn, then now, learning of her innocence, I really feel bad. She would have been an asset to us.

But that’s what we will have to deal with. And btw. we have really played badly: our ranger has made one good pick, our seer another. The rest of us have been just babbling idiots, making no other deeds worth mentioning, but lynching one ordo. And we are having no clues about the rest of the orcs even at the third day! Bad! Very bad!

Before I go to these other last night things, I would just like to put forward this Jenny’s outburst of last night.

Jenny #219:
Hmm...seems everything is going to plan, then, Zali! Good luck to you two without me!

Why thank you! And to think I barely posted.

There are two orcs left. They all have more than one word to their name, and are sneaky sneaky. May they kill you all! And trust me, the transformation process is REALLY odd, though he likes the arms. The other one is less fond, but more used to the role.

No need for an orc to kill a dreamer, boys and girls, what are the odds he/she gets a dream again? Kill someone really threatening, like Spawn, Roa, Nogrod, or Diamond.

Hmm...have I said anything useful? Don't think so. Here, another thing for you to uselessly analyse:

++Grendelien, for the joyful friendship we've been developing.

Now this seems just lunatic-talk to begin with, but there maybe something we should take into account too.

The naive interpretation is, that Jenny is just mad and jumping around: hurt by her fellows to kill her. It is a possible interpretation – I have seen her jumping after a comfirmed lynch before (Roa at least will remember that). Then we should see to Zali, and others with names including more than one word: one male, one experienced wolf / orc to kill the next days.

But that’s not the truth, I think. The obvious interpretation would be, that she tries to make us believe, that Zali is a fellow-wolf (which she is not?), and that the quartet of Spawn, Roa, Nogrod & Diamond are the one’s to go after (who are innocents?). I was just wondering, whether we would be really having the luck of all these to be innocents! It would be a great asset! Well Spawn at least was shown innocent in the grimmest way possible...

But then there is the cunning interpretation, that would see that list as skilful distraction, eg. that one of the quartet (or two!) would be wolves, she is trying to save...

And how about this Grendelien stuff? Could it have something in it? It is so out-of- the-hat as could be... Or those later accusations for Naria? As someone, who has seen Jenny play before, I wouldn’t rule out the possibility of her slipping in some truth in her wailing - just to laugh us villagers not to see her points that she had laid bare in front of us... At least her point about orcs not needing to kill the dreamer makes plain sense, and her list of dangerous people do match my list of the best assets we could have (being innocent).

So it’s not an unbalanced post, more likely, it's a deliberate one. Let’s all see, whether we can wrought something out from it. Remember, only two of us will be orcs, the others are trustworthy. We shall have to be wiser today than yesterday, or the day before... (We'll have to "hunt some orc". )

[Sleepy Ranger]

A Brief Outlook On My Views Detailed Version Later

Caranlondien: Probably Innocent (*)
Nogrod: I trust him (**)
Grendelien: Shes innocent, Hallu told me (*)
Findëasëa: Not sure, probably innocent (**)
Celuien: Not sure (**)
Zali: Ranger
Diamond: Innocent
Kitanna: Possible Suspect (****)
Naria: Shes evil, Hallu told me (*****)
Sleepy Ranger: I like me
Legolas in spandex: >_> (*****)
Roa_Aoife: Probably Innocent (**)

I'd really like to hear more from Kitanna, shes a tricky one. For today I'd say we look at Kitanna and Naria. No, I'm not joking when I say I believe JennyHallu when she said that Naria is a wolf so don't be surprised if thats my reason for voting for her later in the day.

[Roa_Aoife]

Well, a lot seems to have happened since I left before. It seems these Orc's are either terribly unclever, or they just have very bad luck. So, Spawn really was innocent.

Remember, only two of us will be orcs, the others are trustworthy. We shall have to be wiser today than yesterday, or the day before...

Well, it's not Spawn....

Interesting that the orcs would kill her over Zali. Why not go for the gifted rather than the known innocent?

There's more interpretation than that, Nogrod. It's possible that Jenny didn't mention either of her fellow orcs, in hopes that we would focus away from them and onto these. I think a better question would be who isn't mentioned by her?

Then again, Jenny's clever. She may have counted on us not believing her, and so deliberately called her teammates for what they were.

Also, as a side note: please remember that we don't know Zali's role for certain. Right now all we have is her word that she's the protector. Since anyone can recieve dreams, it may be that she, as an orc, recieved the dream about Jenny, and bluffed as the protector. She would know who had been protected, too, because that's who she tried to kill before. It could have been a ploy to drive the true protector out into the open after being foiled so early. Which makes me wonder, if Zali is lying, should the true protector reveal themselves? Or should they keep quiet to foil more plans? I certainly wouldn't want to lose a gifted so easily.

Not only that, but we need to know why the wolves killed Spawn. Is it just because she's a good player, or because there's something more? I'm going back to look at her posts again.

[Nogrod]

Just to come back to the last minutes of yesterday-evening (gametime).

I think it's good to keep up the bafflement towards the orcs. Maybe we played well, maybe not. Maybe Zali was sincere, maybe she was playing a good game. Maybe Diamond and Sleepy were rushing out unthoughtfully, maybe they were getting the idea and played accordingly?

I suggest, that we will not discuss those things today. Let the orcs rot in their thinking, whether we pulled their legs or not!

EDIT: X-posted with Roa

[Roa_Aoife]

I suggest, that we will not discuss those things today. Let the orcs rot in their thinking, whether we pulled their legs or not!

I can see your point. Why agonize over the orcs plan when we can just play normally and analyze our fellow players looking for a lie?

The problem with this is that we need to look at the behavior of the known orc as well as the death so we can get a general direction to go in. Maybe the whole thing was a rather large mistake, and they want us to ignore it. I'm actually somewhat surprised you'd suggest that.

[Caranlondien]

My goodness, what an exciting scene took place while I was visiting my brother in the neighboring village! I know that we're left seemingly in utter confusion, but I take heart in our successes thus far.

I have to practice my harp (coughlinguisticshomeworkcough), but I shall return soon and scour Jenny's posts for clues...
