Zurvan,

Do you feel like boiler was trying to pick a fight with you earlier?

And if so, to what end?

[/ QUOTE ]

This is the post I find most disturbing. It is stirring up confrontation between zurvan and boiler and pointing at both of them in a very hand's off, non commital manner. It's like a shill shouting something and ducking down afterwards.

by instigating, I meant he tried to start it back up, not that he started it the first time arround.

fnord_too · #**733** 01-17-2007, 08:30 PM

I don't know what to make of shorty yet.

fnord_too · #**734** 01-17-2007, 08:30 PM

Time to put the kids to bit, back in a while.

I have a small enough ego to say that I have no idea what Shorty is.

I am also dying because I have a candidate who is either a power role or a wolf. The problem is that I am able to argue both to myself. That makes lynching him unwise obviously.

Very valid concern, especially considering Bram did manage to pick a fight with Boiler right at the beginning. Hm. It's especially odd as I can't imagine anyone reading the exchange as Boiler picking a fight; Zurvan's really the one who instigated it.

Why wouldn't Bram simply ask this in reverse - ask Boiler if Zurvan was picking a fight?
I want to go re-read and see if Zurvan responded; as I recall, he didn't. I'm a bit surprised he doesn't call bram out for being wolfy for targetting Boiler; Zurvan's usually the one arguing against the "easy lynch", especially WRT Boiler.

Alright. This is day 1, even if it did take 2 days, and there's really only so much we have to go on. I think the important thing for me is that I have a pretty clear mandate in being voted to the electorate, and I see no compelling reason to change it.
I need to go for a while, but I *will* be back before 10:30, and I'll cast my vote then. I'd really like fnord to get a chance to post more before my vote for Zurvan is final.
And, as far as the Theories on WDC, I think I've got a few that end in Villager Actions Did It, so I don't want to read too much into it for now.

Stephen H · #**738** 01-17-2007, 09:13 PM

Plans changed, I may not make it back. Plus, there's not really a good reason for waiting, and there's a few not to.

Elect Zurvan

After reading, the other person I would consider is Voj. He was strongly supported by Shorty and Scott. His wolf list is questionable and he would be a fairly safe choice.

I will admit that part of my reticence is that I am very uncertain about you Stephen.

Ok, here are all of Voj's posts:

Huh, well-known posters seem to have an advantage in this game.
I don't think I'd be a good choice for an early electorate anyway.
Still I did well later on the few games I had played and since I'm village I shall at least keep the right to become an electorate later.

Are you still ok for an exchaneg of votes clown ?

CPFB stop presuming things about me.
I haven't spoken much because :
- I'm in euro zone and can't hang on my computer every night till 4 am
- I have no reads on day 1, esp. with so many ppl
- I'm modding a WW game with 25 players on the French equivalent of 2+2
BTW, my only read for the moment is leaning wolfia towards StephenH FWIW

Been a wolf only once and it was a turbo. Lol at supposingly being mad... Or not ... and i don't see where i have been mad - if you're speaking about my anger for that joke about democracy, i'll only say that i was born in Croatia - who was not a democratic country then, and that my whole family was put in jail for their opinons, so yeah i may me be a bit nervous about the jokes on that matter... still no worries cpfb

Why the hell am I still appearing on some ppl's lists ?
Reasons I made up.. well sir, you shall read my posts..

my non support list :
ScottH
shortline
dmk
StephenH
fmxda

in increasing order of wolfishness imo.

He gets bonus points for being Croatian, great place.

It was really that first post that I didn't like. I would expect a wolf who can fly under the radar to play it this way. He doesn't want to be elected, but he doesn't want to be excluded either. He also isn't new if he is modding a game elsewhere.
