Funny but it seems I always wind up here with you.

I spent way to long trying to see the message you were passing back and forth.

Gah! Stupid birds, why do you suddenly appear like that whenever Lassr comes by?

Pr0ner - He's a slippery one, darting through the shadows and all that.
Why'd you decide to push me, then? Poking the silents? That's a Remus strategy, I thought.

It's not just a Remus strat but a good one. At least lets us know you're around and playing.

Any other thoughts yet?

Checking in for the day but nothing to add at the moment. Very busy day at work.

Of course I have other thoughts. Just have some work I need to finish up before I can comment fully.

withdraw Pr0ner.

You mean you have priorities over this game?

Well, I'm not learning as much as I thought I might by now. Sigh. I'll check back later to see what folks have said.

I know the muffin man,
That lives on Drury Lane.

and I saw Grundbegriff leaving his house early this morning.

Are my sticky buns not good enough for you anymore?

I no longer find the fact that Grund living on the first night unusual since the baddies always want us to do their dirty work in lynching him. If he lives a another couple of nights then that really raises the eyebrows.

Austin will always and forever be right at the top of my list!

Okay, looks like everyone has checked in. So, we really didn't learn anything from Unagi death, imo. None of his post stand out and maybe it was a move to cause confusion.

As usual this first vote will be a shot in the dark. I'm still leaning towards Austin or Remus unless something else happens to draw my attention

Hmmmm checking in and there is really nothing solid to go on right now. Except that Austin has a hairy back and I can't begin to understand what that list Remus posted was.

Bubbles usually says this when he's guilty and needs to supply some cogitating-villager filler text.

Well, I took the alphanumeric value for each letter in everyone's names. Then I converted them into base 17 for the heck of it. After that I divided them by 17 before putting them back into base 10 then rewriting them in Binary. Oddly enough the names paired up as shown. O.k., thats all a lie. I will expound on the list later but do not put to much into it as it is based off of very little at this point. Still, I was interested to see what people make of it.

The "aunt" comment used up your bad joke quota, you must cease and desist.

Is it just me or is Grund a bit more aggressive this time... Or maybe he's just getting in a few shots before wolves eat him if he really is an innocent. I'm holding back on my status until I feel more confident in a stratagy.

I'm going to vote Zurai for now.

Nothing major to go on but his play of pointing out the rules to Grund back on page 1 (Grund has the rules and player personalities hardwired into that database brain of his) He was then first to jump on the tru1cy "didn't know the game started" topic and then a little later backed up what tru1cy said about OO logging him out, just seems wishy washy.

As I said, nothing concrete.

Anyone got anything better and I'll be happy to change my vote, or just start an Austin bandwagon and I'll hop on board and enjoy the ride.

/walks up to the village in the midst of their discussion, takes out his folding chair and sits down. he reaches into his satchel and brings out the tools of his trade

/looks around, and starts humming.

"hmm what would be just be the best thing I can capture here"

/looks around a bit more, spots austin's hairy back, brings his hand to his chin, strokes his Van Dyke.

"hmm, wonder if it would work?"

/gets up and silently walks around the villagers talking, all the while eyeing Austin.

He gets back to his chair, leans back, and reflects.

"Now to find the proper perspective, and I shall be set."
