FIRST!
Well, the night round timed out
Nobody has been offline for two days so the cowboys have been online, one must have just not voted. I suspect the "slow to eat" wolf has not logged on today, as they would have ended the round. Here is a list of people that have not logged on today:
horseluvr
jtolley
lizzard
ppjones
vlerma
A bit of a lengthier list than I would have liked for purposes of my theory, but I suspect at least one of those names is a cowboy. That isn't really any better odds than our original 1:5 ratio though. I will wait a bit and see if anime was a cowboy.

ok I wil go with the old fashioned good news bad news routine. Well where do I start. I guess I will start with the bad news. Anime was the seer. The good news is that things can only improve and a new round has started for you to make amends. Stewie.

I feel really awful today, so right now I m just posting so I am not an inactive
That is definitely bad news. How unfortunate we lost the seer so early.
I won't be on much today. My husband now has Mondays off. . .but I wanted to check in and let you know that I have looked in on the game. It's still early in the round, so I'll not vote yet.
Last round - I voted for Mr. Jones. . .. it was a random vote - I don't know if my vote this round will be random or not, depends on what the discussions are like, and if anyone has any theories.
Take all sorrow out of life and you take away all richness, and depth, and tenderness. The capacity of sorrow belongs to our grandeur. It is the furnace that melts hearts together in love.

Hey guys. This is really bad news to wake up to.
So for those wondering, I voted for ppjones last round, half because he was inactive at the time, and half because I wanted to see what would happen if I created a tie. Obviously, votes piled on for anime and she got shot. Anime was likely just voting arbitrarily so she would be able to divine someone but maybe didn't have time to post. I wonder if any wolves caught onto that so they voted for her
Anyway, I'll check back in later.

This is possible, but so early in the game, IDK. Plus, I don't think she game any hint that she was the seer, so - to me, I kinda doubt it. But then, I could very well be wrong, and the wolves are very observant.

Well, that's not an ideal start. I think the main point is that we were let down by our seer, who had 48 hours to post but did not do so.
Obviously, I somewhat lead the charge against her, but I think it's pretty clear that I had good reason to do so - and, to be fair, I still stand by my logic in theory, it's just unlucky that in this case we hit the 1/15 chance that the person was our seer.
Sorry to lose cinn so early, but then I guess someone has to go.

Hey guys, school is crazy this week and I have lots due (a research paper being one). I will try and vote but cannot promise anything and may not be able to post unless I find it urgent. I will try and read all posts before I vote, but again, I can't promise anything. So sorry I forgot to vote last round, but I don't think it would've made a difference.

That is a shame that we lost our Seer in the first round. I just can't understand why Anime didn't even post, knowing she was the Seer and needed to appear active. I'm also sorry to see Cinn was eaten because she is one of the best players here.
Right now I need to finish making dinner and won't be back on for a while. Since we have plenty of time, I'm waiting to see what everyone has to say and who doesn't post before I consider a vote for anyone.
SMILE and people will wonder what you are up to!

Hey, checking in again. Not much happening, so I'll wait to vote.

I also am just checking in, but don't have any plan to vote at this time. In Anime's defense, perhaps this was her first time being the seer and being the first round, she had not yet figured out what her duty was. And Cinn. this is one of the first wolf games I have been in that one of the big four didn't get chewed up in the first round. I can't name who the big four are for sure, but I do have my ideas. I have probably opened my mouth to my own decease. If so, just remember my thoughts.
Today I was quite occupied taking care of my new grandson. What a thrill. One month and five days old. When I watched him a a couple hours the other day I watched him at his house. Today I had him here and he knew this wasn''t home and I wasn't momma. But he did smile for me a couple times, so I'm gaining, I hope. Mom goes back to work full time on the 1st. Wish me luck.
The sound of the wild, but if there is no one there, does anyone hear their howls?

It is unfortunate, and now our huge diadvantage, that we lost our seer. I do agree with most that Anime should've at least posted to appear active and in the game instead of appearing sneaky with a vote and no post to support her decision.
Oh well, we'll have to do it the old fashion way!
OK, where to look. I would think that at least one or two wolves voted for Anime...unfortunately that list is long and includes me.
Will look at a few discussions and vote later.

This is one reason why I don't like to see majorities formed in the early rounds. You have no idea or even hint at who might be the seer, wolf, etc. - and I always consider computer problems, etc. reason/s why a usually active player hasn't logged on or posted. It's too easy to assume a player is being inactive, when in fact, RL may be the problem. I do like to vote out inactives, don't get me wrong, but the first 2 to 3 rounds are hard to consider anyone a true inactive yet. Just my thoughts. . . . . and it is a shame we lost our seer. Blah! Not quite ready to vote yet. Still time to read the posts, etc.

Aw, now I feel bad about anime. But why didn't she post? I mean she voted for someone and didn't explain. Interesting. Will wait for more action before voting
One day your life will flash befor your eyes. Make sure its one worth watching.

The main point, though, was that she was online, and did register a vote, but simply didn't bother posting. Jones, on the other hand, was inactive in that he didn't even log onto Braingle - inactivity would could indeed be explained by computer problems or other RL issues. Anyway, I think what we've learnt here is that noone should ever listen to me!

Oh, I'm sorry Smithy. I didn't realize that she was actually online . . . . . I can see the point in voting for her, but . . . still, I stand firm in not liking to form majorities this early. She could have been in a hurry, etc. - and otherwise, would have been active throughout the game.

Ok I'm anxious to get some action going in this game so I'm gonna put a vote in. I'm not used to these 48 hour days
Working off of my 5 person list from the first post of this round, ppjones is the only one that hasn't posted yet this round and he will get my vote, sorry mate. My main thinking is that I can't detect wolves from 0 to just a few posts. I like reading a lot of posts, and a wolf will give more clues to their identity the more times they post. So is this inactivity? It's all relative. Could ppjones be having RL problems? Yes, he could. My perspective is that I'm not gaining any information by ppjones not posting. Now if nothing else, this may spark Mr. Jones to show up.

No need for apologies...you will never see me upset from having votes casted in my direction. You have to vote for someone, thats how the game is played.
I am not having RL issues, I am just getting swamped at work. One of my favorite lines from a movie is:
The working man is a sucker!!
Anyway, I will catch up with the posts and come up with something good, before snowy attacks me again with another vote.
The reason Gumby isn't smiling is because Deb is keeping him captive against his will.

Hey everyone, checking in again. Unfortunately, I have class until 8 tonight and then oodles of homework, so I'm going to place a vote now and see what type of discussion it generates.
I'm voting for ICUB42. She voted for anime last round and was Cinn's vote last round. It's not the strongest reasoning, but hopefully this tie and the discussion that follows will reveal some information.

Jtolley, you're not that confused. And because of that, I think you're a Cowboy. It sure looks like you're setting me up. And apparently, horseluvr is falling for it. Or she's a Cowboy too?

We watched the Bronx Tale in my Religion/Ethics class, and I absolutely loved the movie. It was right up there with Shawshank Redemption in terms of overall excellence. Both were fantastic movies, and I would recommend them to the people playing in this game.
Sorry I didn't post yesterday. I just got back from a retreat today, and it was AMAZING!!! I loved it. The only thing was that there was so much food!! But I'm not complaining.

I'm tired tonight so I'm just going to register an extremely random vote for Smithy. I plan to hit the sack in a little bit.
Thanks. Stewie. The little boy has already gotten a nickname - J Cube. He is blessed with three names because mom and dad could not agree on a middle name. All the other sons have been named after dad's side of the family = Gregory and William. My daughter wanted his middle name to be Joaquin (Wa-keen) (Spanish) after her father, dad wanted the name Jude ( and no not after Cameron's son - they didn't even know - Grayma was the one who was surprised)
So anyhow JX3 or J Cube. Joel Joaquin Jude. He weighed in at 8#13 and the 13 was all hair. He is just one month, five days old. She had him to the doctor on the 25th and he already weighs 11#2, so he definitely is a big eater. He is so alert and cooing already. I tried to place a picture last night, but I have forgotten how to get a picture out of my own pictures to place into Braingle. I can do it from Photobucket, but I have yet to place his picture in there. Maybe I can take the time to do it tonight and also new pictures of my 4 great granddaughters.
The sound of the wild, but if there is no one there, does anyone hear their howls?

At this point, I do not have wolfy vibes from anyone. Since there is no urgent need to vote to protect our Seer, I'm holding off right now because I do not want to join a majority and I do not want to put an innocent human in danger.
I'll be back in the morning to see if anything else has been posted.
SMILE and people will wonder what you are up to!

Well, I don't understand all of these "random" votes for highly active players...especially when there are only 4 votes with only 6 hours left AND when there's no need to protect the seer. Wolves could easily form majorities on these valuable players. I'm a little more suspicious of you two (snow and vlerma)
And ICUB42, I don't understand how I'm confused...is it because I like the icon? lol
Well, I stand by my vote for you because your response seems too eager and like an attempt to turn accusations back on me. Your vote for anime, cinn's vote for you, and your response was the best evidence in my mind. Sure, it isn't ideal reasoning, but it's the best I've got from 1.5 rounds....and at least it isn't voting randomly.........
And with that...and after a 4 hour physics marathon ( ) , I'm off to bed. Night!

Not that I should defend why I voted for froggy, but I will say I did so, because I'm not suspicious of anyone, and she had no votes. I didn't want to join in on the majority for ICUB42 - as she's done nothing to look suspicious. I also didn't want to go without voting this round. Froggy may be an active player, but that's not why I voted for her. It was just a random vote.
I will say, with 20 minutes left in the round, and only 4 votes in, I expected more activity.
