Because I didn’t like that she’d been on the thread posting and not voting. Even when people pushed her on it.
And then when she did vote, she hopped on the barks wagon, which is such a cop out.
I’m happy with my vote there today.

Why did you not say anything while the Barks wagon was forming?

Contingency lynch MsPro

Why?

 

[sheltermed]

I know I know, but I'm looking some commentary on this from MsPro specifically, not from everyone on the roster. If its just mod flair, I'd like for her to say that. If it is something, then she doesn't have to tell us on thread, but I'd like her to tell one or both of her PM partners.

I'm confused as to why you think MsP has anything to do with it in the first place? Am I missing something?

The write up says barks bit the hand of the last person that touched her or whatever. MP was the last vote on barks

 

[grebes4lyfe]

Why did you not say anything while the Barks wagon was forming?

Well I just found out that I’m working today when my roommate woke me up like “WTF we have to go”
So... won’t be on today like I thought I could be.
Will maybe be able to check in again before closing, depending on what time were able to get off work. But in case not, wanted to let y’all know.

@cubsrule4e @vetmedhead
Can you elaborate what made you stay on Stagg til the very end? How did you feel about barks v. shelter?

 

[Lawpy]

Why?

She threw a joke vote at the end of D2 before switching late to Barky. That play looked really sketchy to me. Also these posts bothered me:

People put me in the idk or the wolf section without probable cause

Gets upset when she's being suspected or even put in null/idk reads.

Like you stated, I'm a baby. I should be innocent until proven otherwise.

Overplays the noob card that she should be assumed innocent until proven guilty.​

Yeah, but what about the times when you were able to post?

Yeah, but what about the times when you were able to post?

what times that i was able to post? you mean the 5 minutes i had to skim the thread and notice MsP's joke vote? i voted for her before she voted for barks. the barks vote just confirmed my feelings.
honestly didnt follow the barks logic, but also didnt have the time or energy to read the thread in enough depth to comment on it.

I didnt really get to re-engage with the thread and start catching up until about a quarter til lynch close. As I posted above, looking back, maybe my stagg read wasnt really that solid but in my mind it was better than a total random vote after my experience in my first few games. I really didnt see the whole barks thing people had going. Shelter has seemed oddly "uninformed" if that makes any sense, so I can see whyd she'd garner some votes, but I personally dont think it was overly wolfy.

Night closed

 

[Ms Procrastinator]

What? Really?

Also real question, why wait such a long time to vote? Are you trying to make yourself look worse?

I didn't really have anyone I had a burning desire to lynch. A few people came up as weird but they weren't super weird and it could have just been normal behavior for them or something. I knew I was running out of time to vote and it seemed like Barks was gonna get lynched with or without my vote. A barks vote seemed better than a no vote to me.

I'm going to hate myself for this but....



@Ms Procrastinator what up with this?

I have no idea. I'm guessing suspicion transferred over to me since they're no longer suspicious and I am? Everyone kinda became suspicious of me when I casted my late vote. That's probably what the bite was

 

[Doggo Labs]

First timer question here, are we supposed to open a PM with the person below us on the list or not? If so what do we talk about? Just trying to figure the game out a bit more.

Pming is a good way to share information with others off of the main thread. It can be very helpful in solving games, but you want to be careful about how much you trust someone right off the bat. It isn't required that you open a PM with the person below you, but it can be s good way to exchange ideas and ask questions.

On the flip side, a good wolf could make you trust them or "pocket" you in PMs.

You can, if you want, and it's permitted. You just talk about similar topics that would be okay on thread. Very rarely it's used to share private info that you don't want wolves to see. This require the knowledge that the other pm partner not being a wolf though.

I can speak! I was silenced which meant no interactions on thread (posts or likes) and no PM’ing - I’m gonna lean it village since the message said I was safe in the in between

Paws - I have many posts saved and will be replying to yesterday’s posts throughout the day. So, I’m at work right now so there will likely be gaps in between

So someone has the ability to put people in the in between? What purpose would that serve?

~~~
The warriors encountered some troubles on their second night on the road. As predicted by the Pooka, strange things hid in the forests beyond the fields.

The first to encounter trouble was the large, jolly leader of the fianna, Finn Mac Cumhaill. He had been busy inspecting his troops, lining them up two by two on the octagonal stones of Giant's Causeway to get the measure of them. True of heart himself, he was admittedly a little on the gullible side, but before someone tricked him to going through a small fairy door at the promise of some tasty food and beverages, he had managed to check up on a few of the fianna and had waved them away without concern.

Dead and sent to Tir Na Nog is

Spoiler: AM

@Animal Midwife , FINN MAC CUMHAíLL, who could peer at two players each night to see if they appeared on the surface to be of the same heart and mind.

Unfortunately for our band of heroes, one of those friends who'd had her armor inspected had been the goddess of victory in war, the Morrigan, who had sniffed in disdain over being slowly looked up and down by that lumbering fool Finn -- twice. She casually waved her hand to grant some luck to a favorite warrior and flipped her hair in defiance as she walked away along the beach.

In the far northern reaches of the Antrim coast, the March wind howls and moans as it whips across the land. While the Morrigan walked along the edge of the angry, turquoise north sea, she thought she heard one of her crows cawing to her. Cupping her ear as she strained to hear over the winter gale, she missed the sound of someone on horseback riding up behind her. His voice, like a deep, distorted bell, made her jump.

"Morrigan, it is time."

@Mad Jack , THE MORRíGAN, who could grant favor to a player each night in the form of gold or a bit o' luck

Back at the campsite, a lonely figure held something indiscernible aloft in the dark, and called out an incantation. A rush of blue light hurtled towards her and set the object on fire, and in the momentary gleam of the flames, a vaguely horse-shaped figure could be seen standing next to the woman.

Back from the Otherworld, and still glowing from her vacation, is

How did two people die last night?

lynch MsP

not buying the clueless act

 

[Ms Procrastinator]

Seriously though don't wolves just get one kill per night?

 

[Dinashadow]

@Dinashadow did you get results back n1?

I got results that I was dead but I didnt submit a night action because my cat needed emergency surgery on Monday and I was a mess hence why I didn't check in the day before.

How did two people die last night?

This is a common ability for wolves/chaos/etc. to have extra kills and I'm pretty sure it happened last game that you played....

 

[Dinashadow]

I have a lot of catching up to do and I'm working all day so bear with me guys.

Sorry to hear about your cat 🙁 hoping they recover speedily and well

 

[Lawpy]

I'm feeling okay about Allie's posts in my read through. Also feel slightly better about Stagg.

 

[dolphin106258]

Lynch grebes

Idk guys. I am confused at the moment. Trying to decide what some of these. Kill choices mean.

Although cray don’t freak out I’m not basing my whole decision on it. But also don’t like how Lawpy seemed to just pick up others points the other day and is now cool with stagg...but everyone just kinda jumped on stagg after Mel. But now Mel most likely won’t be able to question peeps about that today. Ugh. I’ll reread when I have some time later. I really just don’t like that they killed AM. Just ugh.

Post 511 is where I answered this if you missed it. I admitted to it not being a great read, but it was a read. I am looking in the mel/MP/shelter direction today.

lynch MsP

This whole back and forth seems off to me. Like I mentioned shelty seemed to have been doing this "uninformed" act, which she then accuses MP of doing. I said last night she didnt strike me as too wolfy, but rereading through the context and the Mel/MP interaction, she is raising more suspicion for me.

Edit: And then after this exchange last night, Mel ended up in the ether somewhere. Not sure if thats related somehow, or if thats even a bad thing, as mutts said.

Google translate didn’t help

 

[mypetmoose]

Mel is missing. If what mutts is saying is true, and we have no reason not to believe her yet... then Mel is protected right now. I'm okay with that (its not the worst thing in the world at least), even if it comes with the annoying caveat that he cannot post on thread or in PMs. Safe to say, I'm leaning village on Mel, and neutral on whatever ability it is that trapped them.

 

[mypetmoose]

I feel squidgey about both MsP and Shelter, but Shelter is voting MsP so I'm not sure how I feel about that either... I don't want to immediately lynch the noob, but gosh she is sketchy

 

[mypetmoose]

Oi'm sad aboyt de kill choices.

Lol that makes much more sense than the first post.

Side note, did anyone else notice how there are three places where people go to die? (Pls don't yell at me for talking about mechanics, this seems important, right?)

Mag Mell, where Dina went, was (In Irish mythology, Mag Mell was a mythical realm achievable through death and/or glory. Unlike the underworld in some mythologies, Mag Mell was a pleasurable paradise, identified as either an island far to the west of Ireland or a kingdom beneath the ocean.) according to wikipedia

Tir Na Nog, (Irish mythology Tír na nÓg ([tʲiːɾˠ n̪ˠə ˈn̪ˠoːɡ]; "Land of the Young") or Tír na hÓige ("Land of Youth") is one of the names for the Celtic Otherworld, or perhaps for a part of it. Other Old Irish names for the Otherworld include Tír Tairngire ("Land of Promise/Promised Land"),[1][2] Tír fo Thuinn ("Land under the Wave"),[1] Mag Mell ("Plain of Delight/Delightful Plain"),[1] Ildathach ("Multicoloured place"),[3] and Emain Ablach (the Isle of Apple Trees). Similar myths in the northern Celtic cultures include these of Annwn, Fairyland, and Hy Brasil.) according to wikipedia-- this seems to be the same as Mag Mell? (AM went here)

Tech Duinn (MJ went here) Celtic Underworld, Tech Duinn is a representation of Ireland with its green dense - and sometimes dark - forests, its lakes, its castle ruins and its rivers.
Previously kept by Donn with an iron fist until his betrayal during the Black Death, Tech Duinn is now the duty of The Morrigan. (MJ was the Morrigan--who's duty it is-traditionally-to keep souls from leaving the underworld)

So, these all kind of seem the same now that I have done some research, but its still better to share info than hoard it, right? Maybe its not as important as I thought, but idk, if you think its stupid you don't need to read it... It was just a thought...Ignore it if you like

 

[JustPaws]

Tir Na Nog

AM may have gone here as it's directly part of her role's lore

 

[JustPaws]

lynch dolphin
cuz that was AM's last vote and I don't like this below:

Ugh. I’ll reread when I have some time later. I really just don’t like that they killed AM. Just ugh.

doesn't ring true when she was lynching you

 

[mypetmoose]

AM may have gone here as it's directly part of her role's lore

Oh gotcha, so somewhat similar to MJ/Morrigan too then...
I don't see a relevance to the game the way I thought I would unfortunately... When I started collecting the info for the post I made above, I thought that maybe Dina went to a different place than one of the others, but the same as one that died today... that didn't happen though, so that's not how resurrection works probably

 

[JustPaws]

Shot in the dark, but "Niamh" can you bring AM back with Embarr? I don't know if this role is in the game or who has it if so. No need to respond.

 

[grebes4lyfe]

Just wanted to let y’all know that I just read about Phytophthora infestans, the water mold that causes “late blight” in potatoes and caused the potato famine in Ireland, for my micro class.

Will be back on in a little bit to actually catch up on the thread at place a vote (I need to fully read and not just skim everything since yesterday AM), just need to finish this chapter first.
But i wanted to share this information with you all now. And I needed this 2 minute break from my textbook.
