    Correction, [b]Ana[/n] Back where I started

    I don't like voting against someone who can't defend herself, but this is where the evidence stands for now.

    I just hope it doesn't happen.

    <b>Ana</b>

    maybe I should just use the gui to do this...

    I should explain why I "hope" it doesn't happen, I have to go out again tonight and will not be able to do any more for the rest of the day.

    When you have people posting that X is a wolf every day you tend to not care about the game.

    Especially if there are three wolves left plus this one we just got....

    *sigh*... I've been waiting for someone to say something that could point me in some direction, and less than an hour before the day ends, still almost nothing.

    iggy, that suggests you have more than just a wild guess pointing you at Ana... At this point I have no information at all, so I'll just toss my vote on <b>wonedslackystyle</b>... I'd just like to know why everyone suddenly hates Ana.

    I'm putting my vote on <b>ana </b>for the time being, allow me to explain:

    I'm still waiting for the psychic to get back to me (as i've said previously, i've got strong reason to believe that he contacted a certain player whose logs i can cross check, and that i'll be able to confirm that this was the case and that he's the real deal. Hopefully <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile-fix.gif" />) With that in mind, i'm still going under the assumption that this psychic is legitimate, and that im_lost and lolfighter were wolves.

    After looking through the thread, ana is one of a few who have backed both of those players. She has also seemed extremely reluctant to even consider voting against either of them whenever I (or thansal) have spoken to her. I know it's not much to go on, but i've got nothing else at the moment and i might not be around for the end of the day, so i've got to place a vote now.

    Having said that, i'm reluctant to make this vote for two reasons:

    - She is in NY at the moment and i'm not sure if she'll be back before the end of the day. I'd rather vote someone out who'll be able to defend themselves.
    - There is already a vote on her.

    If i manage to get back on before the end of the day and there are still inactive players, i'll definitely consider changing my vote. Sorry ana.
    <!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    Well there you go. She just kinda seems like she wants to stay under the radar. Its tru she cant defend herself, so it might be better if we waited to lynch her but, we got nothing else to go on and there really is no evidence on anyone else, but the other inactives.... its been a very bad day


    srry i rushed that message, when I it might be better to lynch her because she can't defend herself, I meant it might be better if we lynched someone else.

    today sucked, phantom sucks, ana not being here to defend herself sucks.

    maybe people will get off their ###### and get on irc (yeah i know this game is time consuming and not everyone has the time but hopefully more people will realize this for future games).

    The cloaked figure mis-teleported, however, into the quarters of one of his fellow conspirators. Noticing the other cloaked figure, the first cloaked figure started, "<i>Alpha</i>-"

    "Shush!", the other cloaked figure hushed the first, and the two of them could hear footsteps going by... "That was too close." Turning his attention to the first cloaked figure, he asked, "Now, why is it that you feel the need to shout out what you're casting?"

    "Err..." The first cloaked figure didn't have a very good explanation, "It... seemed natural..."

    The other cloaked figure sighed, then retorted, "If you're going to shoot someone, do you shout out <i>'I'm going to shoot you'</i>??" Seeing the first cloaked figure shake his head, the other cloaked figure told him, "Go. Now."

    The first cloaked figure chose to leave while he had the chance, and silently warped away...

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In Zor2's quarters, <b>Freak83</b>, <b>iggymatrixcounter</b>, and <b>microcosm</b> had all heard Zor2's scream of pain before he died. Entering his quarters, they could see nobody except Zor2's beheaded body, and nothing suspicious besides a melted pistol in Zor2's hand and scorch marks on the wall next to the body.

    "What..." <b>Freak83</b> was shocked. Most of the deaths he had seen were from firearms; he had never really seen a person killed from decapitation before... "What happened?"

    <b>iggymatrixcounter</b> surveyed the scene, and came to a few quick conclustions. "It appears Zor2 was attacked, and as he was trying to defend himself, the attacker used some fire-based weaponry to isarm Zor2, then decapitated him."

    <b>microcosm</b> was skeptical, "How do you know that?"

    <b>iggymatrixcounter</b> pointed to the pistol, partly melted, "He was holding his pistol when he got hit with whatever the attacker used," He then pointed to the scorch marks and continued, "What didn't hit Zor2 hit the wall behind him."

    <b>Freak83</b> nodded, and asked, "What kind of weapon was used to do <i>this</i>?"

    <b>iggymatrixcounter</b> replied, "If you want my guess... magic."

    <b>Freak83</b> and <b>microcosm</b> asked in unison, "Magic?" The two of them obviously couldn't believe the Lieutenant would suggest such an impossible choice...

    <b>iggymatrixcounter</b> asked the pair of skeptics, "What kind of weapon do you think could have done this?"

    <b>Freak83</b> replied, "A flamethrower," at the same time <b>microcosm</b> replied, "A grenade!"

    <b>iggymatrixcounter</b> shook his head and refuted, "A flamethrower leaves a heavy smell of gasoline behind, and it spreads. There's no scorch marks anywhere on the wall behind him. A grenade wouldn't even leave most of the body behind."

    <b>Freak83</b> had just one last question, "What... cut off his head?"

    <b>iggymatrixcounter</b> thought for a moment, and said... "I'm not sure. I'd have to say... probably a bladed melee weapon. He had to have been decapitated after he got disarmed though."

    <b>Freak83</b> and <b>microcosm</b> shuddered...

    An hour or so later, <b>Freak83</b> returned to the bridge and motioned to <b>Chakuu</b>, at communications, to move over. <b>Chakuu</b> did so, and <b>Freak83</b> immediately set the communication controls to send a message through the <i>I/O</i>...

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In the medical bay, <b>Gwahir</b> and <b>Ana</b> were busy storing the medicines received at Nu Base, when the two of them heard the intercom click on.

    "Attention, crew of the <i>Insurrection Omega</i>. This is Captain <b>Freak83</b> speaking. Last night, another one of our crew was killed by unknown hands. Zor2 was killed by an unknown person. Whether he was killed by one of <b>Rotnes</b>' followers, or by another crew member is unknown. "
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    "However, one fact is consistent; we are now down to half our starting crew. It is clear that we can no longer run this mission under the strict chain of command the Quanta Militia requires on its craft."

    <b>Mouse</b> and <b>TheMuffinMan</b> were in the mess hall, listening to <b>Freak83</b> intently, wondering what he was going to say next...

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    <b>wonedslackystyle</b> was asleep in his quarters, and <b>Freak83</b>'s announcement caused him to be startled awake, and he only regained enough sense to start listening at...

    "I am not, however, proposing a mutiny, nor am I suggesting we cancel the mission. <b>Rotnes</b> is a genuine threat to the free world, and if we can stop him, I suggest we do so - at any cost."

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    "I am proposing, however, that this become an informal mission. No ranks, no chain of command. This is a unique mission under unique circumstances. A rigid chain of command simply will not hold."

    <b>iggymatrixcounter</b> and <b>microcosm</b> were planning a new strategy to fight back against <b>Rotnes</b>' followers, using <b>iggymatrixcounter</b>'s shockingly detailed information about ancient magic and medieval weaponry... The two of them contacted the bridge...

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    <b>Freak83</b> listened to <b>iggymatrixcounter</b>'s request, then continued, "Don't forget, the world rests on the success on our mission. Also, all crew are asked by <b>iggymatrixcounter</b> in three hours for... 'melee-range self-defense training'. <b>Freak83</b> out."

    "'Melee-range self-defense training'?" <b>Xentor</b> looked at <b>Freak83</b> skeptically.

    "That's what he said, <b>Xentor</b>."

    "Do I have to go, cap- err, <b>Freak83</b>?" <b>Harrower</b> asked nervously.

    "Well, someone does have to pilot the <i>I/O</i>..."

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In the remaining cargo bay three hours later...

    "Ladies and gentlemen, what most of you may not be aware of is that, last night, Zor2 was killed by a bladed weapon, likely a sword of some sort. Evidence shows that he was trying to defend himself using a pistol, and was unable to defend himself against his opponent. My goal, here, is to give you at least a basic understanding of melee combat so that you may defend yourselves better against your opponents." <b>iggymatrixcounter</b> finally took a breath, looking around. The entirety of the crew was there, except <b>Harrower</b>, who was on the bridge, piloting.

    <b>microcosm</b>, assisting <b>iggymatrixcounter</b>, started to pass out dulled "training swords", as the latter preferred to call them. They were dulled-down fragments of metal from what was left of the ruined cargo bay. At <b>iggymatrixcounter</b>'s instructions, <b>microcosm</b> started splitting people into pairs, and <b>iggymatrixcounter</b> watched as everyone started to get more familiar with basic movements, but as the group practiced...

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    <b>Harrower</b> was manually controlling the speed, fooling around with it, wondering if he could shake up the crew in the cargo bay and get away with it, when suddenly... he lost all reading in his station, and all power on the bridge went out too, for that matter. <b>Harrower</b> wondered what was going on...

    In the cargo bay, everyone immediately became nervous as the lights went our. However, that wasn't the biggest shock, as a second later, everyone felt weightless, then suddenly found themselves being flung toward the ceiling...

    Back on the bridge, <b>Harrower</b> managed to resist the upward force and make his way to the navigation station, where he could hopefully find out what was going on. Luckily for him, power restored after a few seconds, but when he looked at the navigation screen to try and use the planet's satellites to determine their position, he got an eerie <!--coloro:#00FF00--><span style="color:#00FF00"><!--/coloro-->Error: Satellite system not found<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc-->...

    Just then, the <i>I/O</i> slammed onto an unknown slanted surface, and as the engine was still running at <b>Harrower</b>'s previous speed, they started moving even faster down the slope. Everyone, including <b>Harrower</b>, found themselves pinned against the back wall of their respective locations...

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Unfortunately, the <i>I/O</i> somehow landed on the top of a mountain, and there were several spires between them and the bottom of the mountain. One such spire hit the remaining cargo bay, sending a long gash in the metal from the front to the back of the module. The <i>I/O</i> swerved on the slope, managing to miss a few spires, but a second spire hit the cargo bay, tearing a large hole into the wall...

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    At the rush of wind coming at them from the breach, everyone instinctively started to hang on to whatever was closest, mostly people. <b>iggymatrixcounter</b> was able to use one of the training swords to punch into the nearest wall, affording a handhold so that he could manage to keep a number of people from getting sucked out...

    Unfortunately, <b>Ana</b> was not one of them, and despite her best efforts, she found himself flying out of the cargo bay at a massive speed, very high off the ground...

    A few horrifying minutes later, <b><!--coloro:#FF0000--><span style="color:#FF0000"><!--/coloro-->Ana<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc--></b> hit the ground with a sickening THUD...

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The <i>I/O</i> eventually drifted to a stop at the bottom of the mountain, and the crew in the cargo bay had a clear view of the nearby terrain from the new hole...

    Green sky, purple grasses, as well as a number of small, buildings made of some kind of... not even <b>doomchica</b> could offer a guess as to what it was. The only thing that even looked familiar was a large stone structure in the far distance. Otherwise, the landscape could be described as a barren wasteland.

    <b>doomchica</b> ran off in order to make sure everything was working right. The rest of the crew, however, could do naught but wait.

    "Doesn't look like we're in Kansas anymore..." <b>TheMuffinMan</b> quoted.

    Of course, <b>microcosm</b> missed the quote, and only replied, "I don't think we were ever in Kansas."

    Everyone sighed as they realized the situation they were in...

    <b><i><!--sizeo:5--><span style="font-size:18pt;line-height:100%"><!--/sizeo-->It is now Day Five: Post away!<!--sizec--></span><!--/sizec--></i></b>

    Outside of the <i>I/O</i>, a young Gorge by the name of <b>Petco</b>, after the Marine that guided them to their new home, came across the open hull of the cargo bay.

    <b>Petco</b> could remember stories about Marines, evil for the most part, except for the sole Marine that guided them here, to the Gorge Paradise.

    Shooting a series web between the ground and the cargo bay of the <i>I/O</i>, <b>Petco</b> made sure to cloak before entering...

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Meanwhile, a number of people were in the mess hall, staring through its windows at the landscape. None saw the Gorge enter the cargo bay, although a number were focused on the organic structures dotting the landscape...

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The cargo bay was mostly empty, the contents ejected from the suction that resulted in Ana's death.

    <b>Petco</b> tried to remember the stories regarding the feared Marines, but could only remember one detail: They apparently had a very bad smell... Regardless, the room he was just in was supposedly similar to the ones his ancestors had built hives in...

    Just then, <b>Petco</b> got an idea. Materializing a brown, blue-topped structure, he quickly hurried to assemble it before he was spotted...

    Outside of the cargo bay, <b>iggymatrixcounter</b> was walking near, when he heard a strange squishing sound. Deciding to avoid exposing himself, he shouted, "Is anyone in there?"

    <b>Petco</b> frantically sped up the pace, and the structure stood straight up and became invisible...

    <b>iggymatrixcounter</b> armed his machine gun and peeked into the cargo bay. Despite his diligence, the only way he could have seen <b>Petco</b> and his structure was to pretty much trip over it, but he didn't even walk near it. Silently muttering to himself, he disarmed his machine gun and walked away.

    <b>Petco</b> breathed a sigh of relief - as well as a Gorge could, anyway. Focusing on the memories passed down to him, a massive structure appeared before him and slowly turned invisible. <b>Petco</b> was surprised, he didn't think he would be able to spawn a Hive on his first try.

    Deciding to explore a bit, <b>Petco</b> quickly evolved the silence trait, and went off through the decks...

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    <b>doomchica</b> had just called in to the bridge; the engines were good to go, despite the rough treatment from falling some distance onto a mountain... <b>doomchica</b> was still wondering how it was possible. She knew that if im_lost was here, then he could probably figure it out, but... -

    Her thoughts were interrupted by a sudden stop, as she tripped onto the hallway in front of her.

    Turning around to find out what had tripped her, she saw a small creature on the floor...

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    <b>Petco</b> was scared for his life. Right in front of him was a real human! He had only heard a voice before, and didn't dare try to look for its source. He braced himself for his death...

    ...But it never came. The human only stared at him, as if she didn't know what he was. '<i>How can that be?</i>', <b>Petco</b> thought.

    <b>doomchica</b> looked at the creature intently, not knowing if it was dangerous. Then, in a move that actually even surprised her, she picked it up. <b>Petco</b> started to panic now, squirming and thrashing, trying to break free, then suddenly realized...

    No smell. The Marines that were oh-so-feared had a nasty smell about then, or so the stories said. According to them, it was the worst thing anyone could ever smell...

    <b>doomchica</b> tried to hold on, afraid to drop the creature, as it might get itself hurt... if it could get hurt. Absent-mindedly, she started scratching <b>Petco</b>'s head as she headed for the mess hall.

    <b>Petco</b> was confused, then suddenly felt a very pleasing sensation. So pleasing, in fact, that it almost made him want to sleep... Deciding that might be a good idea, he silently dismissed his cloaking and silent traits and started... to...

    <b>doomchica</b> chuckled as the creature closed its eyes and went limp. It was almost funny, as she could probably see Ana doing this without hesitation. <b>doomchica</b> wondered what Ana would have said about it...

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Unfortunately, once a hive is spawned, it only takes a few minutes before it reaches maturity. Not having any connection to the other hives, it immediately assumed its surroundings to be hostile, and created a trio of eggs, for it could not support any more until it had grown a bit more...

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    <b>doomchica</b> entered the mess hall. Pretty much everyone was there, except for the normal bridge crew and <b>Gwahir</b>. Setting the creature down on the table, she went over to <b>Mouse</b> to find out what the lunch was today.

    <b>Mouse</b> replied, "Unfortunately, I haven't made anything yet. Most of my ingredients were ruined by the trip down the mountain and-" Mouse suddenly stopped, noticing the creature on the table, "What IS that thing?"

    <b>doomchica</b> shrugged, "I don't know, I found it wandering in the halls. I didn't see it until I tripped over it, actually." The creature was snoring, being a slight distraction to the other crew members. <b>iggymatrixcounter</b> went over to it and poked it, making a squishing sound he had heard before...

    "Did you find it around the cargo bay by any chance?" <b>iggymatrixcounter</b> asked <b>doomchica</b>, suspiciously.

    <b>doomchica</b> thought for a second, then replied, "Around there. It is between the engine room and here, after all."

    A slight jolt went through the ship, and <b>TheMuffinMan</b> casually replied, "Looks like we're moving again." <b>TheMuffinMan</b> was sitting at the table nearest to the

    <b>microcosm</b> nodded, explaining, "We've decided to head for that stone structure. It seems out of place, so maybe it has a clue as to how we got here..." <b>microcosm</b> suddenly felt hungry, so he decided to join <b>doomchica</b> and wait until <b>Mouse</b> finally made something...

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The slight jolt startled the hive, and the three eggs it had dropped hatched into dog-like Skulks. Still presuming that they were under attack, the Skulks had only one clue- there was a Gorge nearby, but it wasn't responding, possibly in danger!

    The Skulks rushed toward the mess hall...

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    <b>doomchica</b> and <b>microcosm</b> finally managed to get some food from <b>Mouse</b>, though it was just basic rations, until <b>Mouse</b> could think up something better, anyway. The two of them sat down at the table nearby, where <b>doomchica</b> had previously placed the critter, still snoring away.

    <b>microcosm</b> asked, "Do you think we should give it a name?"

    <b>doomchica</b> scoffed and replied, "I doubt anyone on board knows what it is..."

    Just then, the door to the mess hall opened, revealing a trio of creatures similar in colour to the one <b>doomchica</b> had been lugging around, but definitely more sleek and dog-like. At they tap-tap-tapped toward <b>TheMuffinMan</b>, nobody in the mess hall expected what was to come...

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Skulks saw the gorge, surrounded by humans. If they had any intelligence at all, they may have examined the situation rationally. As it was, however, they were operating on instinct, and it said two things.

    Human. Enemy.

    The Skulks dashed toward <b>TheMuffinMan</b> and tore viciously into him. The other crew members drew what weapons they had, but their weapons, unlike Marine weapons, bounced off the Skulk's carapace, ineffective. After a few bites apiece, <b><!--coloro:#FF0000--><span style="color:#FF0000"><!--/coloro-->TheMuffinMan<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc--></b> fell to the ground, dead.

    The Skulks aimed for the next nearest human, <b>iggymatrixcounter</b>, and leaped...

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    However, the hive within the <i>I/O</i> had been noticed, and contacted by the hives in the Gorge Paradise. The hive inside quickly made a decision, and communicated it to the skulks...

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    <b>iggymatrixcounter</b> rolled out of the way as he saw the three creatures which had just slain TheMuffinMan leap at his face. Instead of chasing him, however, the three soared past... and hit the wall behind him.

    The four of the people in the room tried to figure out what was going on, when the creatures bumped into each other, seemingly in a daze, then rushed out of the room...

    All the while, the gorge named <b>Petco</b> still slept, despite the chaos around him...

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The hive recalled the Skulks, reabsorbing them into itself, then slept, invisible, until it returned to the rest of the Gorge Paradise. They knew it was coming, and it was only a matter of time...

    As far as I'm concerned the psychic whether real or not has ruined this game. So far everyone seems to believe that it's true and getting nightly updates that there are now one wolf less than the day before has just made this dull.

    You can call me a wolf for saying that if you want but that's my oppinion. gg psychic.

    As far as the wolves are concerned, they're evidently not trying to kill him either which makes it look to me as if he IS real. How can I say this? TMM is an experienced player and not likely to adopt the name "psychicomg" and do this stuff. They're trying to kill off other players and make it look as if psychicomg is a wolf which in turn means he's probably not.

    Oh lastly, yes this post is not very human friendly but as far as I'm concerned these things just need to be said. It should actually be up to the spectators to point these things out as they don't have to worry about taking sides but they're as quiet as everyone else right now.

    I'm in a terrible mood today, sorry for the hostility.

    Oh yes, one possible counterargument, the wolves may be so inactive that they have not chosen anyone to actually kill and the nights wolfing was based on random.org but I seriously hope that that is not the case.

    Everything above is actually a combination of 3 seperate posts I have made.

    Replace "the psychic" with "psychicomg" and I completely agree.

    Having talked to iggy about it (Man, it seems as though his games work so much better...) I'd have to say that having no anonymous contact is more in the spirit of the game.

    However, as I can't dictate any policy, I'm gonna just have to stick with the rules as is. =|

    Well I know some people have read my post by now as I've seen your names on the bottom, and yes it's living players who have read it. Allow me to bring up a quote from a coversation I posted on day 1 that can be found on page 1 of this thread:

    <Freak83|HUMAN> but overall, as long as what i do can ensure activity i'm happy

    It's no wonder I'm so ###### off right now. Yes, I've stated some contraversial things in my above post that people will read and wonder who's side I'm on and I'll probably get a vote or two cast towards me for posting it but <i>who's fault is that?</i> Isn't contraversy and debating what TWG is supposed to be all about? This is a game of strategy, where things are said and arguments are made over every little thing except that's just not something being done. Before this game had even started I was considering to make my strategy regardless of my role to just be the instigator who says what needs to be said regardless of what harm it may do.

    When the game actually started I figured that's what the spectators would do so I backed out of that role and decided to play in a more passive manner. Now I don't see that as the best option anymore and what I've posted above are just among some things that need to be said.

    If I get killed today for doing so at least I'm going to go having fun.

    Hell, I try to run things here in the best organized fashion as possible. I'm not trying to be a dictator or anything and prefer it if the people who play this game are the ones who govern it. No anonymous contact sounds like a great thing to me, but as far as TWG XI is concerned can't change that now. Have to wait till the game is over at least.

    Believe me emp, it was debated for a long time before we got to that conclusion. The game that finally stopped it was when we had 3 teams going and all that was going on was mystery PMs to everyone. Quite annoying.


    I don't know if anyone else got the PM saying that there are 2 wolves left. I'm just going to assume that it's true, no one has tried anything that has been proved that they lied so I feel that everything up to this point has been true. (otherwise I think we would have lost awhile ago)

    chakkuu, you're going to die and not replace the lynch, do us a favor and take one for the team and get yet another phantom. Your living with 2 phantoms means that there's basically 1 more wolf than is actually alive. If we lynch you then we probably waste the lynch since there's no way a wolf team would allow you to get 2 in a row.

    As far as what may be helpful, go back throughout this thread and list all the pairs so far. (A pair is anyone who defends another player or accuses him, even if he doesn't vote him.)

    Making a linking chain with as many players as possible usually yields a few outcasts and center of attention players, and if the two players are still alive, it's a good possibility that they could be wolves. I know I'm going to be doing that and opefully post the list as soon as I go back over the 10 pages of this game.

    Oh yea, the vigi must be dead or really dumb for not killing chakku last night. It's a good thing you have a nice host who's going to kill him off so we don't have to suffer because of other player inactivity.

    And with chakuu's death, it'll set the players back to an odd number during the day, making those with 1 phantom (sup lol) less dangerous as the game goes on.

    I am also upset at the number of inactive humans that could be making this a much quicker and easier game to win. If you humans do not already know, I am just coming out because if we don't we will lose.

    I am the psychic. Let's please leave the technical roasting of how I treated my role to the after game, and try to win this game, even in spite of any wrath you may have towards me.

    The seer is dead. He was aldaris. thansal and tmm were working for aldaris, after two nights in a row aldaris saw two wolves and needed to setup a trust network. I independently built up trust with thansal.

    I can post all the logs or email them if you want. PM me for my email address if you want all the logs confirming this, but the bottom line remains. There are 10 humans and 2 wolves left, and my suspicion is that Gwahir is one of the two.

    my current list is:

    human: micr0, iggy, xentor, slacky
    ?: mouse, doomchica, chakuu, harrower
    wolf: gwahir, BIG MAYBE freak83

    I am usually on irc, but for gawd sakes use PM if you have to.

    retard math. shows what of a morning person i am.

    8 humans, 2 wolves. 1 human is the psychic (me), 1 MAY be the guardian. 1 MAY be the vigi.

    Alright, good enough for me, for now at least... <b>Gwahir</b>, now would be a good time to defend yourself, if you can.
  • ByekaByeka Name changed from Freak83 Toronto Join Date: 2003-03-13 Member: 14484Members, Constellation
    I have no reason to not believe any of this. <b>Gwahir.</b>

    With all the former suspicion of me especially from day one I have to admit I'm quite shocked that I wasn't one of the seer'd.
  • iggymatrixcounteriggymatrixcounter Join Date: 2007-02-19 Member: 60025Members
    I can agree that micro is telling the truth, but "reasons to believe gwar is a wolf" is still subjective. It's not that gwar can't be a wolf, it's just that you have little proof.

    So why freak and xentor are jumping on the bandwagon I have no clue, but micro's opinion doesn't really have more weight than normal.

    Looking at his list though, I can't really say anything is wrong with it except I doubt chakkuu is even a questionable wolf since he has 2 phantoms.

    And like I've also mentioned, the vigi is probably dead, although I can see chakuu being it since there would be no reason why the vigi wouldn't go after him last night.
  • ByekaByeka Name changed from Freak83 Toronto Join Date: 2003-03-13 Member: 14484Members, Constellation
    For three nights in a row there's been nothing but wolf lynches on the basis of the word of the seer through his contacts. If Gwahir's been seer'd as it appears to be stated above and the last 3 nights are accurate I have no reason to doubt this now.

    Of course I'm assuming that it means he has been Seer'd above. If that's only based on assumptions then it's a different story.
