First of all, thanks for playing guys and sorry to dayowlron and PrivateerPuddin' for eating you. Rest assured, you at least tasted great And sorry Stupot, it must have been incredibly frustrating to know you are right but nobody believed you and in the end even VampireWombat seemed to start to doubt you a bit. I would like to thank selmiak, your suggestion that Stu might be a wolf in day two really helped us along by confusing everyone (including the wolves. We knew you were not the seer who had checked Stu but you sure sounded like you were. What were you thinking?)

Yeah, this goes for me, too. Sorry, everyone! Especially Stu, it must have been hugely frustrating for you.

It's also terrifying that you might not remember your own lies consistantly and slip up somewhere and doom your team (like a wolf-player claimed VampireWombat had so you guys must have been watching for such slips in your own posts to notice that one I'm thinking).

That was me. And yes, I was constantly second-guessing everything I was posting, just in case it made me look suspicious, or conflicted with something Sinitrena or Cassie had said (or was too much in agreement with them!). This game really does get inside your brain!

I think a part of why we were so cautious is because it was the first time playing for a lot of us. In a few rounds time we may be more confident at the game and take more risks, like pretending to be the seer or the fool. I do wonder, though, did anyone suspect all three of us as being wolves? Obviously there was some suspicion individually, but did anyone guess the full wolf group?

I had fun, and I'll sign up for the next round.

It feels like soooooo long ago that we were singing about wolfsbane mojitos!

[of you]

That's not true Sinitrena. If I'm telling the truth, then I can avenge Stupot simply by not guarding anyone tonight.
The wolves will then kill every last one of you, thus avenging Stupot.

"The wolves will then kill every last one of you"? Did you slip up there, VampireWombat? Are you not one of us?

I still can't work out who the third wolf is, though.

I've been trying to type up a reply for the last few minutes, but I keep getting the "a new reply has been posted while you were typing" message, so I've been trying to re-think what I was going to say. But here's my original message anyway:

HA! I KNEW you two were working together! I've been vindicated!

Now, the trouble is are you telling the truth, or is this a bluff? Something is still niggling at me. If Stu is the seer, why would he check on Cassie, who none of us really suspected, rather than one of the people he did suspect? He mentioned Selmiak, Sinitrena and Josiah, and yet didn't bother to check any of his own top three suspects? That strikes me as a bit strange.

[vote: Stupot]

I was leaning towards Stupot last time and nothing has happened since then to make me change my mind. So, in honour of Privateer Puddin's last wishes, I vote: Stupot.

Aww, bad luck, Privateer Puddin'. I wonder if the seer made any progress last night? I hope they can find a way to communicate their findings with us.

The general consensus last time seemed to be that Stupot and Selmiak were the most suspicious, with the rest of us pretty much equal in each other's suspicions. So it seems like one of those two are the most likely candidates that we'll be able to agree on as a group, unless anyone has changed their mind?

I'm still here!

OK, so we have one person in favour of not lynching and another with a preference towards lynching, but willing to go with the majority. So far, our "gut instinct" poll seems to show that Stu and selmiak would be the most likely victims of a lynching.

I'm unsure of which way to go too. As much as I'd like to keep everyone safe, the only way we can level the playing field between ourselves and the wolves is to try and get rid of one of them, otherwise their numbers stay the same each day while ours keep reducing each night. Then again, VampireWombat makes a good point about the seer. If he or she can find a wolf, or even just find someone they can trust, then it would be better for us to wait.

Why would my suggesting dayowlron as werewolf fodder be something to influence their decision?

I don't know, it was the only thing I could think of that linked dayowlron to the werewolves.

I haven't really had a clue up about who anyone is so far, but now I'm starting to think that VampireWombat and Stupot could be two of them. VampireWombat seemed very hesitant to lynch Stu when selmiak suggested it, so I feel like they're working together. I don't know about the third, though. Maybe Josiah? He's been keeping very quiet.

Well, only he knew that. Out of all of us, he stood out as the one to kill on the first night. Not much to go on at that point, but maybe there's something in there.

OH. Sorry, I get what you mean now. I thought you meant that his quotes might be useful to us in some way now, rather than to work out why he was chosen. But yeah, I can't really see anything that would make him a target in particular. Although, didn't VampireWombat say something about him being werewolf fodder? Perhaps that influenced the decision?

About the lynching, I'm not sure we're ever going to have real evidence for lynching anyone. All we have is our gut instinct.

I'm not sure how useful dayowlron's quotes are, given that he was actively trying to get himself lynched. Although he made a good point about the seer and the bodyguard finding each other. Hopefully, as Cassie said, they've managed to get in touch with each other. Otherwise, the only other information we've got to go on is selmiak's vote to lynch Stu. Does he have reason to believe that Stu is a werewolf? Or was he just trying to throw us off his own scent?

Aww, poor dayowlron. Not even a fool deserves such a fate.

But it should be

9 WOLFSBANE MOJIOTOS HANGING ON THE WALL

After all, our town is small and has only nine inhabitants.

I added an extra one for our beloved Creator, Mandle the Almighty. Perhaps if we worship him enough, he'll protect us from the wolves?

I'm not staying quiet on purpose, I just don't really know what I can add to the conversation until the first night has passed and we have more information about who we're up against. At the moment all we can do is make random guesses, and I don't see the point in doing that because we'll just end up going around in circles. Sorry if that makes me seem suspicious.

I can sing a song if you like: 10 WOLFSBANE MOJITOS HANGING ON THE WALL.....

So I suppose the main question now, leader or not, is: do we want to lynch anyone at all?

If we DO lynch someone, we have the possibility of taking out a werewolf. If we DON'T lynch anyone this time, then we give the seer a chance to gain some useful information before we make a choice, so we have less chance of accidentally lynching one of our own. Then again, we also give the werewolves a chance to attack during the night, so there are pros and cons either way.

Yep, I'm in!

Yay, great work, Blondbraid! I'm looking forward to playing this as soon as I can!

Did her dog(s) attack her?
Did her dog(s) not recognise her for some reason?
Did she startle her dog(s)?

Yes! I'm glad this thread is back in action!

Had she fallen unconscious before she was killed?
Were those she loved the most her pet(s)?

Hooray! That's always a good milestone to achieve. You're in the home stretch, now!
