As a rule, I'm suspicious of people who nominate someone without leaving at least some sort of reason. Although I can guess. So I Vote to lynch dpl |

In the last phase, Al voted for both The Land and Stormaen. Seeing as he hadn't scanned anyone yet, those votes would be equivalent to a villager's guess. As such I don't think we should vote for either based solely off of Al's vote, there would need to be more of a reason. I'd rather not make a random vote, so does anyone have any other thoughts? |

Going for Al right away was a smart, ruthless, and opportunistic move. That narrows down the field a bit for me. I've certainly seen one person who plays a bad guy this way. And as it happens, he was already suspected. Vote: lynch Barry |

Obviously, at the time of my early vote against Al, nobody - including me - knew his role. Nor did anyone know anyone else's, except for the 2 wolves knowing each other. In response to Klop, as most of you know, I'm a big "No Lynch" fan on the first day. However, realizing that Canada lynches folks for that vote, I did the next best thing by tying the vote between Al and The Land. As I said:
If I were a wolf, I wouldn't have tied the vote at that time, but would've voted for someone else without any votes to keep The Land in the lead, or jumped on The Land to hopefully start a bandwagon. I did neither of those things. In fact, my tying the vote between Al and The Land, helped keep a lynch from happening, as Aerso was then able to tie the vote at the end of the phase. The intent and result of my vote was to obtain a "no lynch" at the end of the day, which it indeed did do.... I believe that those who've played with me in the past - Aerso, Ater, Sauron, etc - see the logic in my vote. I hope that others do too. As far as this day goes, I'd like to hear a bit more from others before deciding. |

Day 1 Voting: Al votes Land Storm votes Land Land votes Al Barry votes Al Ater votes Storm Aerso votes No Lynch Klop votes Al Al changes vote to Storm Aerso changes vote to Storm8 Not voting: dpl, Hahiha, Wop ----- A couple things strike me to think about from the voting: * Klop comes after me for voting for Al, although he did the same thing even later. This seems a bit hypocritical and aggressive. * dpl warns he’s watching inactive players, then he doesn’t vote; while Hahiha doesn’t vote, and Wop forgets. Not voting can be a wolf move to lay low and let others take the heat when a villager gets lynched/killed. Not strong evidence against anybody, but then there really is any in the early phases of WW. Just things to keep in mind. |

^ Of course, meant to say: there normally isn't strong evidence against anyone at the beginning of games. |

I agree with Barry. Klop and DPL stand out the most to me at the moment. |

Actually, I stated that I would vote for someone if they didn't post, not if they didn't vote. Not voting was an accident on my part though. I intended to vote late, but the evening phase came round quicker than I expected. |

Well I'm completely comfuddled... Hmm. The arguments above make sense, though. DPL is standing out as suspicious for me. Not voting in the first round then immediately voting to kick The Land seems a bit... Scapegoating? Vote: kick DPL |

Time's getting short and not many thoughts are being posted. So I'll go with what's just a hunch. Vote: Trip Klop |

Accusing Barry prompted him to triple post, dissemble at length, accuse me, then later vote to lynch me. That's a lot of frantic activity. I find it unlikely that an innocent person would feel so pressured to react that way. Add to that how often he's been online without posting prior to being accused. I smell a wolf. However, reality calls. I'm tied with DPL at two votes apiece with 20 minutes left. So, solely out of self-preservation: Change vote: Lynch DPL |

As the players gathered round for their pregame ritual at this point, the kicking of the players, they were all apprehensive. They had already lost two and no one wanted to lose a third. No player had a large majority, but by game time it became apparent that DPL had racked up the most votes. He sadly began to walk out, ashamed of his team mates, for DPL, the teams goalie, had been a loyal canadian player Night roles PM me |

The team was weary, learning from the coach halfway through the second period that DPL had been an ordinary player had severely harmed moral, but the players struggled on. Unfortunately for them the XKI goalie had kept the canadian offense completely shut out, while hahiha had been doing, less than perfect... As the players prepared for the final try at tying the game and going into overtime Aternox had the unfortunate fate of getting in the way a large defender on the side of XKI, it wasn't long before both teams were involved in a full on brawl. The players had no memory of the brawl, all they knew was that by the time it had finished aternox had lost his helmet and was taking an extended nap in the Canadian net. A physically induced coma has ended the career of #32,Aternox, a defenseman. |

Quoting myself because I haven't changed my mind. I still find Barry's response to my earlier post highly suspicious. Triple posting, apparently misreading (or simply misstating?) my rationale, then finally voting to lynch me didn't seem like innocent behavior. I don't know anything for sure, and will listen to an *actual* explanation he might offer. But he's still my number one. And lynching wolves is the only way we'll get out of this one. Also, I will say this. Almonaster suspected him as well before being killed. Vote: Lynch Barry |

I'm camping from the 20-27th, and if you guys can't come up with somebody good the lunch, feel free to lynch me. Although I am a loyal America's Canada: Minnesotan! So if you must know, I'm a loyal Canadian through and through (villager). See y'all in another life. Vote: Lynch Klop he's playing aggressive, idk, mostly a throw-out vote. |

Aw man, what horrible luck. Day 2 Voting: dpl votes Land Land votes dpl Klop votes Barry Wop votes Klop Storm votes dpl Barry votes Klop Klop votes dpl Not voting: Aerso, Ater, Hahiha --- We really need to get a wolf this phase. I'm most suspicious of Klop, as his posts seem strange to me. I'm crossing my fingers I'm right.
Klop, I always defend vigorously. I did so again here, especially since your initial rationale to lynch me actually tended to exonerate me, and if anything implicate you. You point to my triple posting as showing my being “frantic”. The first post was my defense. The second was a double-posting, setting forth the first day votes and my thoughts. The third was an unfortunate correction I had to make when I left a critical negative out. Since editing is a ‘no-no’, I had no choice but to “triple” post to correct my error. But then what seems really strange to me, is that you immediately flip-flop and say I don’t post enough. Really? Who’s posted more than I in this game? Finally, now you claim that Al suspected I was a wolf before he was killed. I've reviewed Al's posts and unless I missed something, I don't see a single word that supports what you say. Please quote for everyone where Al said that. Bottom line, your arguments seem internally inconsistent to me, and they just don’t make the points you claim they do when read closely. I think my hunch to vote for you, rather than DPL last phase, was a good one. I think I smell a wolf on a mission. Vote: Cross-Check Klop |
