Wow first round. First indian. Some fine shootihg there cowboys.
Poor chili. liiks like he got caught in the crossfire. Well that's what Cowboys and Indians is all about.
Now it starts getting interesting. The first round is done and everyone is settled. I will be watching this closely.
I don't think I will be on tomorrow as there will be too much stuff to do. But I will be free again on Tuesday.

LOL, Shaid you beat me to it!
I'm voting for nicats because the night timed out and nicats hasn't been on for 2 days.

Now to my real post, James was eaten, probably for no real reason, last round was lame. Nobody made any accusations, and the wolves could pretty much eat anyone they wanted without giving any hints. I think this needs to change this round, if you have a suspicion please voice it, or the wolves will have easy pickin'.

I agree with you shaidar. I don't know if this happened in a Reunion game, as I am a new member, but I have seen it happen in a lot of other games. I usually don't like to go off of those kinds of things, as it seems they are usually human.
Well, we still have over 40 hours to vote, so I'm holding off voting until I see posts from the rest of the gang. Sorry to see Chili go!
I've also seen some pretty sneaky tactics used by wolves, so I don't know how much we can base on whether a member has been on site or not. One thing I do know is that I need coffee!
SMILE and people will wonder what you are up to!

Last night I checked everyone and nicats was the only one that hadn't logged in. The night began at about 9:40 am BT and even with the time change between time zones, she is only in Indiana. And this morning it said 2 days. She is, therefore, the only one not online during the round turning. Either a wolf didn't vote to set her up or they masterfully timed their vote so that the delay worked out?
A tactic I have seen by wolves when one of their inactives is found is to vote for the outspoken individual (I have been shot over it more than once). I'm looking forward to how this shakes out.

I am surprised Hermoine was a wolf actually. Lucky break for us cowpokes. I was all set to go after Soup-or-wolf but that theory no longer holds a bit of air since he voted without hesitation for Hermoine and called it random. He goes almost to the bottom of the list (just above myself ).
Good infor on Nicats Stra. It could be a wolf set-up, or another freebe for the cowboys. I'm leaning for chasing the freebe, but I could be swayed.
In any event, yeeeehaww... for the cowboys.

I tend to think that Strat is right because a wolf wouldn't draw attention to themselves by voting first nor would they care which human got shot this early in the game. Nicats may have been set up but if she was she allowed it to happen by not being online so I don't feel that bad about aiming my six-shooter in her direction.

Sorry that I haven't been more active folks. The weekends tend to be a little on the busy side in these here parts. Wow, was that a lucky vote or what, good job cowboys and cowgirls.
I'm not ready to throw my vote out for nicats yet either, as I have also seen wolves time their votes to make an inactive human look bad. With no other real suspicion to go on though, I don't know. Still have 44 hours, so I think I'll wait until more people post.

Okay, as far as "evidence", here's what I've found so far going just by the voting from last round.
Those voting for someone other than Hermione:
Mythmaster
Nicats
Ppjones
Zonarita
Those not voting at all:
Jpaw
Silent2012
Sweetmama
Zonahobo
Now there are only three wolves left, and I also realize that it is very possible (if not probable) that at least one wolf did vote for Hermione when it became clear that she was going to be shot no matter what. But I thought this might at least help a bit as far as seeing where everyone stands. I'm going to hold off voting for the moment to see what everyone else has to say, though honestly I am leaning toward Nicats at the moment. She both didn't vote for Hermione and wasn't on during the night round, so that is extremely suspicious. I agree that it could be a set up though, so I'll wait for a little longer to see if anyone else has any ideas or further evidence to bring up.

Thanks for that teddy! That seems to me like at least one of the four who voted for someone else is an indian. Since nicats was 'inactive' and did not vote for Hermonie, she actually seems like a good pick. But since we are not even 5 hours into the round, I am not going to push along the nicats vote just yet. There is still time for other things to be brought up.
Superwolf probably would be a human then, as most wolves would not want to lead to the death of a fellow wolf, especially in Round 1.

I didn't have a chance to vote, I was super busy yesterday and by the time a had a chance to log in, it was already night. Weekends leave VERY little time for the computer for me. My little buckaroos command my attention, lol!

Not sure I am real happy with being on teddy's list, but it is what it is. I had a choice between what I thought where two inactives and I chose superwolf (must have been the name). By the time I checked back in, a majority already formed on hermoine. good job you guys.
I see several good reasons for nicats and none for anyone else. I wont wait as long to check back, but it looks like I will join to posse.

The reason Gumby isn't smiling is because Deb is keeping him captive against his will.

Teddy's post about who didn't vote for hermione is making me lean towards nicats. It just feels to easy...
Also I have a question, I haven't played in a 20 player game in forever and i know that there used to be 5 wolves... is there only 4 now?

Just so you all know, I was just posting the voting as it stood for last round ~ the only one so far that really stands out to me as well is Nicats, and there is certainly no guarantee that she is a wolf either. Most on that list are not wolves as there are only three left, and there is a good chance that at least one wolf is not on there as it would be a good strategy to vote for a fellow wolf who is obviously doomed to be shot anyway. I just thought that posting that might help at least a little if we're unsure if someone is acting "wolfish" or not.
Edit: Yes, I think there are only 4 wolves in a 20 player game. That's the way it's been in all the games I've played so far anyway.

Thanks Teddy that posts looks much better from you than me. Since I didn't know for sure and felt she was already a goner I didn't vote for her but placed a fun vote. But in fact think wolves do tend not to vote for another wolf unless it is to help wolves.
Shad said say what ya think - and Shad I think you are a wolf. The way you ended the vote on Herm, when it wasn't really necessary, makes you look so human. Yet your posts all 'feel' wolfish to me. I do not know if it is because we've played together a lot - or I just pick on you. weak smile But I'm going to vote for you cause I think you are a wolf. Your language, timing, all seems wolf.
Hope I get to play longer, Teddy, I think you've got at least one wolf in those lists of yours, partner.
Celebrate the moment!

I just went back and read through all the posts from last round again, and the main two that stood out to me taking everything together were Nicats and Shaidar. Shaidar was the last to post a vote for Hermione, and I agree with Rita ~ this round he is coming across very wolfish to me as well. Asking if there are 4 wolves instead of 5 came across as a little too convenient ~ I could be totally wrong here, but those are the two I'm most suspicious of at the moment. Not sure which to vote for yet, so I'll come back later and see if anyone else has more ideas.

Congratulations to the eleven that shot that Indian full of holes, Y'all are a trigger happy group. That Indian probably didn't even know what hit h'm. with the round ending 10 hours early I didn't have time to fire a shot. I agree Nicats looks suspicious. We may get lucky and get us two in a row.

Okay, just to point this out, I have been playing in the reunion games for the past couple of months and for the record when the games started there were 5 wolves in the 20 player games, and I had not played a 20 player game in months, and the mention of only 4 wolves confused me so I asked... I guess I should have just PMed Stewie instead of incriminate myself. And the comment about my 11th vote being suspicious... why? I posted at 345 after school on Friday, and there were only two votes at the time one for each Superwolf and Hermione... I didn't want to vote that early so I left. Then next time I got a computer was the next morning and there were 10 votes for hermione who seemed to be the only inactive in the game, and I said I'd vote for the inactive, and even if she wasn't she already had 10 votes there was no reason to delay the inevitable so I joined the vote... Hows it any more suspicious that being the 1st or second to throw a vote her way?
Sorry if thatsounded really defensive I was just trying to refute you points of suspicion

Well, I am here. just got back from work and read all the posts.
I'm gonna have to do some thinking and some re-reading of the posts before I make a choice on who I will be voting for.
Made your bed, now lay in it....But you can always add a bedside table, change the sheets, take out the trash...it doesn't have to stay the same unless you want it to.

Shaidar, you are a bit confused. There has always been 4 Humans for every 1 Werewolf. If in fact you were in a game with 5 wolves, Can you give us the game # ??
I'm WRONG The early games did have five wolves. Game # 30 is an example.

The only reason I thought it was weird he said it, is because he was a wolf before with only 4 wolves. Here is where he was a wolf when there were only 4 wolves in the game.
I don't know if that was an honest mistake, or if he really was just trying to make it seem like he didn't know who the wolves are. I do know that because he was the 11th vote for Hermonie does not make him suspicious. Somebody had to be the last vote, and it seems weird that you, rita, didn't just end the round since she was pretty much done with anyway.

Yeah, that is what also confused me. Shaidar was in game 709 (I don't know how to link to it) with me, and there were 20 players and 4 wolves in that one also. I agree that being the last person to vote doesn't prove anything ~ I was just looking at that plus the posts this round that were a bit confusing. But I also didn't realize that there used to be 5 wolves in a 20 player game as I just started playing TWG within the past few months.

Soccer - I told ya why, but I'd read the posts to that point and Hadleigh posted
so I was not wanting to shoot - since she was dead already - especially if she was human. Then all those fun post seemed like fun to poke at someone that it couldn't hurt and especially one so talented
What made Shad's post wolfish - was a - he didn't read my post or b he had a reason for the round to be over sooner, or c would have a real reason to vote - ie wolf and knows it would be 'more human' to be on the list that killed a wolf vs not. If ya know it would really affect the way you vote.
Shad the last game I played with you - you gave an eliquent answer - and I bought into it, and then behold you were a wolf. So I'm not so easily ready to let go this time. Your above post - not to buy into Nicats as a wolf 'just yet' also making oneself human if you know already that she is a wolf. Could it be possible we have two wolves in our sites?
Celebrate the moment!

I have to say, right now I will probably vote Nicats. Not voting Hermoine and not being on during the night round are circumstantial, but it is the most I have to go on. Sorry Nicats.

Now this is nice! We managed to get an Indian (wolf) in the first round. Just like in the last reunion game I played in. Great job everyone.
As for who the remaining Indians are, I'm not convinced on anyone at this point, but there are some good points made against Nicats and Shaidar. With over 38 hours left to vote, I'm still holding off to see what other thoughts are posted.
Now, back to that red hot poker game that I was winning a bundle in!
Edit: In going back through the last round and reading the posts in this one, we sure have a lot of people not posting that have been on site. In fact, I just checked each player and everyone has been on site today.

Sorry, froggygg, I was on late last night (like 2 am). It was night, so I couldn't post.
I am leaning toward voting for nicats, but could be swayed for shaidar9haran. I'll wait to hear more peoples' thoughts.
I'll check back in either late tonight or tomorrow morning.

As for voting, there's still heaps of time for that but I am leaning towards nicats after reading all the blurb.

Well y'all, Ah figger it might be a good idear t'vote, but at this moment, Ah'm not really sure. Ah don't want to sound wrong by sayin' that Ah don't really know why Nicats is suspicious, but Ah understand that y'all are after her because she has been fairly inactive, and didn't vote fer Hermione last round. Ah'm probably gonna vote nicats as well, but Ah'd like to be able to find out if there is any better evidence agin her or anyone else. We shore don't have much t'go on, y 'know. If ah were to state who Ah find t' be suspicious so fur, Ah'd be lost. Nicats does seem t'be a little strange, but all we have is circumstantial evidence, Ah figger. Are we gonna say 'Bo is strange fer not votin hermione? Probably not. O' course, Nicats could be puttin' on an act of inactivity, Ah dunno. Ah'll wait t' vote, and read what the rest o' y'all write.
EDIT: There is one other feller here who seems a bit strange t'me besides Nicats. That's superwolf, since all he dun so fur this round was come on and say he's goin with the majority, nothin' else. He weren't very talky last round either, iffin Ah remember right.

I see lots of valid points and suspicions, but I will hold my vote for now, need a bit more time to think. I haven't been on much just moved back into college and getting used to it again. Will be on tomorrow, at least no classes
I admit looking back I have played in a few 20 player games with only 4 wolves, but it was just an honest mistake. In my mind I guess I never registered the difference. Now I understand why that was suspicious, because I could of been trying to pretend to not know the wolves etc. I actually didn't understand that before. I also am begining to understand the suspicions about the last vote... and it stinks because if the same evidence was on someone else, I might be tempted to vote for them... So honestly I won't try to sway your votes because I don't know how I could. I'm gonna throw a vote in for nicats because I'm not gonna vote for myself, and nicats has a good basis of suspicion... hopefully I survive the round and eventually clear my name, at this point the vote looks like it'll go nicats so I don't feel too threatened anymore.

Radio, don't loose that idea - could be a third wolf? I do agree, and something last round had him in my sites too. grin
I'm probably not going to be on again for a few hours. so it will be interesting to see if it'll be night when I get back or not.

I've pondered it over, and my vote is for nicats. Shaidar is acting how I have in the past couple game where I've been accused of being a wolf. So, for now, his explanation passes.
With that, my vote is for nicats.

A might vote fer Nicats soon, but I'd like to hold a while so Ah can have time to sing up anuther song fer y'all. In the mean time, Ah'll keep thinkin'... Nicats does seem t'be the strongest suspect fer now, and I completely agree with the reasons. Ah'd just feel better in mah gut if there was a bit more evidence. But Ah still think superwolf has more agin him, as he claimed t' vote "randomly" with the majority last round. Could that have been a reluctant Injun posin' as a greenhorn cowhand? That's why Ah'm a little hesitant t'vote Nicats, because his excuse is not so pathetic this time. As if he doesn't see much problem with votin' Nicats, y'all see? Maybe he knows that Nicats ain't an Injun, and doesn't mind shootin' her? Or maybe he's tryin' to be less lame than last round? Ah don't know.
Wow y'all, mah little rant has almost changed mah mind about Nicats completely... Ah'd like to hear yer takes...
Time fer mah warmup:
Meee meee mee...
EDIT: To clarify, Ah wanta see to y'all that Ah have no intentions of tryin' to save Nicats. She may very well be an Injun, and Ah'm still likely to vote fer her, with superwolf on me next wanted poster.

Several strong points have been made about Nicats this round so I'm voting for her. Sorry Nicats. Next round, I'm going to be keeping superwolf and Shaidar on my short list.
Be glad to have you join in on the poker Hadleigh. Cards are runnin' real good and I'm winning lots of money. How about if I buy everyone a round? Come on in and enjoy!
SMILE and people will wonder what you are up to!

Ah'd shore like tuh, but Ah can't sing if Ah hiccup. Ah'll vote Nicats now, but Ah'll sing first.
The summer is endin', the cattle drives done,
The rest o' the year ain't so nearly as fun.
Jes' me an' mah buddy, an' our rust ol' shack,
Oh summer, don't leave me! Please hurry right back!
There's so snow in the desert, but it's cold all the same,
Mah ol' Wild West frontier gets mushy an' tame,
Except fer the wind and the stingin' sharp sand,
A strange kinda deadness creeps over the land.
The rattlers are hidin, the rats are asleep,
The cactus start shiverin', but somehow they keep,
The sand dunes are coarse, an' they cut at mah feet,
It gets stuck in mah boots, makes that feelin' complete.
So Billy an' Ah, we will kill off our time,
An' we get really dirty, collecting the grime,
No more horsin' around, jes' we sit and we wait,
Fer the weather to warm, fer the cold to abate.
But there's one special thing that we do once a year,
When Christmas time comes, Billy makes the root beer,
An' we trek to the town, and we buy us some steak,
From our winter ordeal we now take a good break.
We bring it all home, and we cook it to chow,
The best time of winter is comin' right now,
We decorate cacti with a hat an' a shirt,
Not much of a snowman, but we ain't got no dirt!
And we sing Christmas carols off key the whole night,
If we feel real silly, we have a sand fight,
We get real dirty, but at least we have fun,
Then Ah grab the last steak, and from Billy Ah run!
But quickly the winter comes, quickly it's gone,
And soon 'fore ya know it, the summer comes on,
Time to drive out the cattle, and lasso the strays,
'Tis the life of a cowpoke, how Ah spend all mah days.
Yippe kye yi yeah! Yippe kye yi yo!
Git yer rope an' yer hat an' away we go!
Git yer guns! here come Injuns, our guns will blow!
Yippe kye yi yeah! Yippe kye yi yo!
I will now resume lurking silently.
