WOW. Now ain't that something. 2 rounds in two indians gone. Doesn't happen very often.
Is billy the kid here. He must be with shootin like that.
Ouch jpaw. Sorry to see a fine cowboy go out like that. But that's how it goes.
Surely we can't find 3 in a row??? Or can we.

Wow, I logged on at just the right time, 1 min. after the game started again! At least it didn't time out this time. Maybe we got another one? *crosses fingers hopefully*
I'm 4 min after. I'm going to vote for Shad - I noticed he was not on until 4:29 - with an hour delay - he voted and the game started! Seems very logical to me.
I'll continue to go through the names and post them.
Celebrate the moment!

Hey, I just logged on and saw that the round started six minutes ago. I have to go to my first water polo practice (starts at 8 ), but I'll post my thoughts later.

I find it obnoxious that rita is already gunning for me 5 min into the round... I have PMed Jake about the delay and he said it was a random timer. So one time it could start within a minute, or an hour. Honestly I'm just glad we're two for two, I'd have to say Teddybair is pretty much cleared along with superwolf. Since they both led to the destruction of wolves At the moment I have no thoughts, I don't even want to vote rita because I don't think she's suspicious, she just views the facts differently than me. I'll get back to you guys with my suspicions.
Woohoo!!! *dances happily around the campfire while playing guitar* We got us another one!
I'm gonna go watch a movie with my kiddos now, but I'll be back later to see if anyone has any ideas on who our remaining 2 Indians could be.

Y'all are a fine bunch of Indian hunters. Two in a row, We got um on the run guys!

Now that really is something! 2 out of 2! Now, for #3...
I'm going to go back through the rounds and see if anyone was protective of Hermoine or nicats. We still have lots of time before another vote is due and I would love for us to get another Indian and make it 3 in a row.
Right now, I'm ready for some of that guitar playing that teddy is doing and some nice roasted marshmallows!
SMILE and people will wonder what you are up to!

Wow! Great job team, we are doing great. I am going to go and look back at who was in the middle of voting. We could make history here, by getting all 4 wolves out on the first 4 rounds. I have done it with 3 wolves, but never with 4!
This amazes me, pardners! Ah never seen Injuns fall so fast! Ah'm not sure who t' chase jes' yet, but Ah'm still a bit iffy 'bout superwolf.
I will now resume lurking silently.

Yes, to be fair, it was Strat that first mentioned she thought Nicats was a wolf, and I went and looked more closely at the voting because of it. While I know that doesn't necessarily clear her (or me), I'm personally not suspicious of Strat because of that.

Me suspect Strat?? Never!! (inside Joke) .. Yes, I think we can credit Strat with the Nicats catch with an assist to Teddy. I think Hermoine was kind of a sheer luck hit since she didn't even post to be suspcious!.. but I'll take a hit any way we can get it.
I too was keeping an eye on Shaidar, and his logon activity (or lack of presence) was a concern. The round changed fairly soon after he loged in. Everyone else had showed activity. I think he could be a possibility. The last Indian could be a real toughie to catch. The remaining two Indians could have set Shad up.
Great job pardners. Mighty fine shooten.
Sometimes we get a bit trigger happy with quick success. The surviving wolf clan members might be just a bit nervous right now. Defensive even.

I'll say Shaidar didn't want to vote for Nicats - if he was an Indian and knew she too was an indian then that would account for that. He came around but what wolf wouldn't at that point?
I just feel it is him and will vote that way - just want to hear from everyone.
Edit Superwolf, ppjones froggy, Sunrose, hadleigh and jpaw were all on at that time also. Watching several games. Not to mention myself.

I missed voting
There has been some good points made here. I'll have to ponder on them some.
Guys and gals, I may not be on much today, I need to go get the car inspected this morning, then later this evening sis and me are going to see my aunt who has cancer in the liver and pancreas. So I do not know if I will be able to stay active in this game or not.
Stewie I said I would be active, but my aunt has gotten worse and I am not certain how things are going to turn out. I am sorry if I do not get to play much after this because the doctors do not know how much time she has left. For me, this is just a game and my aunt is much more important than TWG is. I am hoping that things will settle down before we leave today, but that is where I am so uncertain. I'm truly sorry Stewie and hope that if I do become inactive that you will forgive me and not hold it against me.
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.

Ah know this was meant fer Stewie, but Ah have t' wonder... why would it be uh big deal if yer inactive if yer a cowboy, aside from the fact that we might shoot ya? The day round don't time out if a Cowboy fergits t' vote... Ah may be readin' this wrong, and probably am, but Ah brought it up anyway.
I will now resume lurking silently.
Okay, I know ya'll are suspecting me... but I joined the nicats vote and made it 4 out of a needed 10... I was definatley not as hesitant as the last couple of people, the people I'd look for are someone who's been one of the last ones to vote both times, because they were hesitant to vote for both of the candidates. I did express some initial hesitation because I didn't want to jump the gun, we had 48 hours to discuss it so I didn't think it was a big deal. But I still vote relatively early, and there were 3 votes her and one vote me, if we were both wolves the smartest thing woulda been to work the next 24hours to try and sway the vote...

Cause I said I would be active and there is a good chance I may not be that is why Radio.
But if you want to shoot me...there won't be any hurt feelings over it. I'll even vote myself off it everyone thought I was a wolf and had good reason too.

With 36 hours to go - no votes yet -
Shaidar - I do suspect you for sure - last time we looked at 'not on' voting and got a wolf - out of all those who were on - you hadn't been on up until that time - you get on - and then the game started. It could have been radom -
To me that is pretty remarkable that you had not been on and then you get on and within an hour the game starts? Then when you add the fact you didn't want to go with the suggestion for Nicats - which a wolf would have known she was a wolf - it sure seems your change of heart was to protect yourself - too many already stated they were going to vote Nicats - you couldn't save her. I don't think you could have swayed the vote too much.
Sunni you are right this is a game - do what you need to do, and our prayers are with you.
Celebrate the moment!

I understand what Sunrose is getting at. When I joined the game Stewie sent a PM (a standard one PM that went to all players he didn't know) saying I must be active if I join. I believe Sunrose is apologizing because Stewie gave strict instructions to be active and she may not be.

I agree, Suni you need to take care of family matters. Family is always a priority over any game or this site. My thoughts and prayers will be with you and your family.
Now, as far as those remaining Indians... I'm also leaning towards Shaidar as some good points have been made. Since we still have lots of time left, I'll check back later to see if anything new has been posted. I've also not had the chance to go back through the rounds and see if anything suspicious shows up now that we know who 2 Indians were.

Copying from Teddy's 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.

The second round posts regarding the vote for wolf - Nicats.
Strat -
I'm voting for nicats because the night timed out and nicats hasn't been on for 2 days.
Shaidar -
I'm hesitant to vote along with you,
Soccer post
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.
could this be telling? hobo posted -
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.
jpaw
I don't feel that bad about aiming my six-shooter in her direction.
sweetmama -
I'm not ready to throw my vote out for nicats
could be wolf being careful?Teddy
I am leaning toward Nicats
Soccer -
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.
still hesitant to jump on this banwagon - no other lead but did speak the clearing of Superwolf - ?letting other wolves know he's human we can get rid of him all know?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.
ppjones -
I see several good reasons for nicats and none for anyone else. ...it looks like I will join to posse
shaid -
Teddy's post about who didn't vote for hermione is making me lean towards nicats. It just feels to easy...
wolf hedging a bet? zonarita
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.
My vote timing - didn't vote for first wolf - hoping to draw attention to and get another as well. Teddy posted
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.
Silent -
I agree Nicats looks suspicious. We may get lucky and get us two in a row.
Sunrose -
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.
has family stuff going on.Hobo's vote -
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.
Super wolf -
Imma gonna vote the majority this round, partners.
Froggy -
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.
Hilmdavid -
I am leaning toward voting for nicats, but could be swayed for shaidar9haran.
Radio -
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,
Myth -
I see lots of valid points and suspicions, but I will hold my vote for now,
Shaid -
I'm gonna throw a vote in for nicats because I'm not gonna vote for myself,
Hilmdavid -
I've pondered it over, and my vote is for nicats.
My thoughts are in red - just trying to lay out how the votes happened; that is what will make the difference as all that voted (first 10) - but me - voted for her. Those that didn't vote but made comments are in blue.

School just started up seems to be getting in the way more than I anticipated, should be able to get on tonight.
Today was my first day back at school as well, and I had got a lot more homework than I was expecting. I will still be active by trying to get on twice a day, but my posts will not be as long as usual.
I am surprised to see no votes for anyone yet, at 27 hours left in the game.
I would say that strat, Bo, and teddy are probably the most cleared because they were at the beginning of voting. These are the people then that followed after these three and jpaw (known cowboy):
ppjones
zonarita
silent2012
shaidar9haran
HiImDavid
froggygg
Radioguy
I am sure that at least one of our wolves is in that list. There are a lot of names to choose from though, so that doesn't help very much. Rita's name is in brown, because she decided to not vote for nicats. Even with this though, I would say that Rita seems to be more cowboy though with her helpfulness. Now, I know that the wolves can seem to be helpful, but it doesn't seem like that in this case.
I have thought more and more about shaidar being an indian, and it just doesn't seem like it to me. I don't know who else to vote for at this point though...besides him pretending to not know how many wolves there are in each game, he doesn't seem all that suspicious to me. He will probably be shot, as most people seem to think he is a wolf, but I don't think I will be voting for him. I am going to have to rethink my vote, and hope that I get back in time tonight or tomorrow morning to vote. Last round I went to bed around midnight and decided not to vote until the morning, but by 9:30 about 8 more votes came in for nicats and it was night.
Those are my thoughts for now. I may be putting my neck out there, as Rita's post about me makes me look suspicious. However this round ends, it was pretty cool to see two indians go down right away. Let's get a third indian to leave the last indian by himself!

Seems from Rita's post, there is a good amount of information that makes Soccerguy suspicious. I don't want to say this because he seems to believe my humanness thus far, but If nothing else comes up I would like us to vote soccerguy, aside from me he is the best choice.
sweetmama has laied low; myth has laid low - wolfish behaviour for sure.
I'm not sure why Nicats didn't vote - I thought not going after Shaid was a tell - If she knew he was a wolf - she wouldn't have voted for him - another reason I voted away from the suspected wolf - hoping we'd get lots of info from the vote. (She could have thought she was protecting wolves by not voting Shaid - possible.)
I think Sunrose is caught up with RL. I'm not sure about Hadleigh - not heard much from her.
I don't know who the wolves are - if Shaid is not a wolf maybe sweetmama and myth are - I'm not sure how to vote, but I do think since I started the thing about Shaid and felt he was guilty, I should vote for him. (It was pointed out someone else beside soccer wasn't sure it was him - I should look maybe that was soccer. Then we'd have all four wolves.)
I'm open for comments - we've got to talk or we will come up dead in the water. It would be a shame not to win when we've got such a great start.
Celebrate the moment!

The only thing is that I provided this link last round, that could've easily gotten shaidar shot. I am sorry to disrupt your plan, but I am just as clueless as you are for the wolves. I have definitely played this game a little bit different than I usually do, but I am still human.
By posting all of this, and by choosing not to vote for shaidar, I know I will look like I am an indian, but I want to post what I really feel. I am only asking for one more round from everyone. If shaidar does turn out to be an indian, then you can vote for me next round, but if he turns out to be a cowboy, why would I protect a cowboy so much if I am an indian?
Anyway, I have an essay calling my name, but I will be back on later tonight so see how the games is played out.

It was Hilmdavid that agreed shaid sounded like he was trying to protect his b ---. I did reread again. I also saw this that I posted before and it jumped at me this time.
I'm quoting my own post - A wolf wouldn't want to give anything away when they voted - she is quiet this game and maybe she could be added to the Myth, sweetmama group.
I'm digging myself in deeper - I don't know and when I start forcing ideas I'm always wrong - well, usually wrong. grin
Sorry soccer - I think if Shaid is a human you'd be save - but as it stands right now - I don't have anyone more wolfish - so he may need to take a hit for the humans, if he is human.
Celebrate the moment!

OK, honestly do you think I'm that stupid Rita. I know your all smart people, why would I have tried to sneak that by you. Anyone could easily research the list of games I've played which is in many places, it was an honest mistake, I asked and got an answer. I had played in multiple four wolves games by now it was a momentary brain lapse and I regret it now. I just had it in my head that there were five...
I honestly feel that both rita and soccerguy are both human, yet those are the two obvious choices. Soccerguy is helping me so I don't want o vote him, and I think if it came down to me and rita I would be shot. I think my best bet would be to try and go after the other possible targets: Myth or Sweetmama, who have been online yet not active in the game.

I'm cleared? WHOO-HOO! *clears throat* Uh, I mean....that's good....right? Well if there are people cleared then it's the ol' prsh vote thiimination, right? I guess I'll fish vote this round.

Well. It seems like things are hotting up around here. Some suspicions are going around too. I will be interesting to find out what happens.

I don't see any reason to think you're cleared superwolf, but that's just my opinion.
Shaid, I'm not after you just yet, there seems to be something bigger going on because the wolves are letting this go on - and maybe even helping blow it up - as a diversion.

I agree start, Superwolf, you are not cleared as no one really is in this game. You seem less likely to be a wolf because you voted for Hermonie the first round.
I do find it weird that Hadleigh, ppjones, and sweetmama have yet to post this round. It might not mean wolf behavior, but there are still three inactive people left in our game. I may be tempted to vote for one of them, just because inactives should not be left in the game.
EDIT: Grammar error.

I haven't said anything this round so far as it still has nearly a day to run. The posts make interesting reading but it's heaps to try and analyse. I also not to sure about Shaidar being a wolf and the odds of getting 3 wolves in 3 rounds must be staggering.

Since ppjones and sweetmama are the only inactive people left, I will just place in a vote for ppjones. Unless some other evidence comes up, I will stick with my vote for him. Out of ppjones and sweetmama, I know ppjones a little better, and think that he may be trying to stay off of the radar a bit too much.
I'm still not sure who I'm going to vote for this time. Shaidar seemed the most suspicious last round, but he has tried to explain and I'm teetering back and forth on whether he still seems the most wolfish or not. Myth has been on a few times and posted briefly, and as he is just starting college I can understand how that could happen. I certainly don't think that clears him, but it would at least explain why he hasn't been very active this game. I have no idea what could be keeping Sweetmama out of the game ~ she's usually a very active participant. I'm not sure whether to be suspicious of her being an Indian or concerned that she's having a rough time in RL. If it's apparent she is on site but not posting or voting then I may cast a vote that way, but I'm hoping to give her a bit more time to get on here and explain first. I guess there's still time to decide, so I'll be back later to try and figure out a vote.
Well Shaidar seems the most suspicious to me. He's pleading very well, but it really seems like he stands out and anyone else would be more of a guess on my part. Maybe the others Inidans noted his absence and held off for him. That is always a possibility. I feel the game has delt me this card and I need to play it. So, my vote Shaidar. We've had some breaks, but when you are rolling 7's it is no time to stop!

PPJONES AN INACTIVE???? YOU TAKE THAT BACK!!!!
I don't think anyone has ever called me that *wipes tears from eyes*. I am hear, sometimes work doesn't allow me to be super active, but I usually post at least once a day. I will try harder soccer.
Anyway, not that this is helpful, but my gut tells me the other two indians are probably not drawing attention to themselves. My gut tells me that rita can be trusted, and I don't think shaidar is an indian, but thats my opinion.
I am going to wait to see some more posts, before I aim my pistol at anyone.
The reason Gumby isn't smiling is because Deb is keeping him captive against his will.

Well, I am having a tough time deciding. There's shaidar who seems like the perfect candidate, yet also seems like he is pleading way too hard to get off (meaning he would be human). Then, there's soccerguy, but this is how he normally plays, so I'm not understanding other people's suspicions. There's ppjones who just posted after being acused of being inactive, and there's Hadleigh who did the same thing. Honestly, I'm going to go for sweetmama right now, only because she is inactive.

i see the tide turning for Shaid - that's great for him - however every time I've fallen for that - I'm sorry later. So the pleading falls on a heart hard as the baked earth before monsoons!
If there is a better choice - of course I'd change my vote. If RGW were playing he'd say - as he has said - stick with those first instints they are usually right.

I was also thinking that the two remaining Indians are laying low because we have shot two, But I am also thinking that the first two Indians we shot were laying low, and they all can't be hiding in the bushes. Right now I suspect shaidar for his Defensive behavior(it's hard to tell if he is being defensive because he a wolf or because he' not) and also suspect Sweetmama because of her being on site but not posting anything and also not voting for either wolf. between the two of em i just might end up flippin a coin.

I'm not an Indian, just been a little busy with work for the last couple of weeks. I will try and post a little more often.
There are two ways go when you're a wolf.
1. Be very outspoken, post lots and frame someone else. or
2. Fly under the radar by not really joining in with the conversations and maybe once during the round posting things like "I so confused, I really don't know who to vote for"
Unfortunately for me a lot of the posting happen when I'm asleep and it takes a while to read through it all.
I'm leaning towards Sweetmama because she is not an inactive, she fits into my #2 category. Inactives are those not logging onto Braingle at all.

I've read over the posts, and I will be going with Shaid this time. I find his posts suspicious. And it looks like I will be voting this time around at least.
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.

After again reading through the posts and all the points made, I'm going to vote for Shaidar as well. I'm also highly suspicious of Sweetmama for not posting even though she has been on site. However, I do agree that it is difficult to believe that all the Indians are hiding out, not posting, and laying very low. Two such Indians is believable, but 3 or 4, I find a bit too much of a stretch.
I will check back in the morning to see if anything else has been posted to sway my vote and will change it if the proof is convincing.
For now, this cowgirl is heading off to the ladies bunkhouse to get some sleep. Nite all!
SMILE and people will wonder what you are up to!

In a last effort to save myself I switch to sweetmama, who has been on the site, but avoiding posting in the game, an extremely suspicious activity.
Ah guess Ah'll vote shaidar, as Ahd've dun earlier, but "Spirit Week" at the Christian School has been eating mah time an' energy. Never bothered to post earlier, because Ah couldn't think of much to say.

I have a couple concerns for voting with the shaid vote.
1) When I was a wolf last I voted at night and then someone who hadn't gotten on finally got on 30 min. before the round turned. jpaw ratted us both out and while the other guy went down, it really was random that he happened to log on before the round turned, the delay is quite variable.
2) That is quite a list of other players online at the time shaid logged on. Very easy for one of the others to check back, see that everyone had logged on (thus clearing no one) and place their vote.
3) If shaid is a wolf, is he trying to protect superwolf? (trying to say he is cleared) If shaid is proven a wolf I will be voting for superwolf next round. OR perhaps shaid is the seer and he divined superwolf and teddy and he is trying to let us humans know who not to suspect.
4) If shaid is human, then I daresay Rita is a wolf. But we know in this game the identities will be revealed, so why stick your neck out like that if you're a wolf? Perhaps because there is enough "logic" to your vote that you can apologize for being wrong and most people will move on without a second thought.
5) Soccer seems more active and talkative than normal, plus mildly accusatory (a fine line every wolf must walk - throw out suspicions and see which ones stick, yet not seem too pushy). So my vote goes there.

I was also teetering between Sweetmama and Shaidar, but with Shaidar now voting for two people this round that he claims to believe are human, I'm also going to put my vote that way. I'm sorry if you are actually a human Shaidar, but your posts just seem too suspicious.
