"BE GENTLE, I'M A VIRGIN." I SPEAK FLUENT DOT-ESE.

[thedrisinu.livejournal.com]

How kind of you.

I don't think we should be talking about the shepherd's attitude where everyone can see us...

[darkasthe.livejournal.com]

Here's what we have:

- Four players have their names asterisked.
- Four players received riddles in their inboxes.
- There are four wolves. One has not arrived yet.
- There are thirteen sheep.
- Chizuru is a safe sheep.

We have a clue already. I doubt the shepherd would honestly give out any more, especially since the balance is tipped against us at the moment due to the extra player. My guess is that the riddles and asterisks don't mean anything. But I'm not going to say anything in public about that, and I'd recommend that neither of you say anything either. It's better to let the sheep confuse themselves; play along, follow their lead, and see what happens.

Given that we have one safe, I'd recommend that we consider eating one that isn't tomorrow night. If the fourth wolf doesn't show up by then, there's a chance that we could attempt to accidently eat them, but the vote wouldn't go through -- the shepherd would either have to take an eating vote from that wolf or pick a sheep at random.

I'm fairly certain Tomo isn't our wolf. She's forward, and she's not suspicious in the least. The flock trusts her and is following her lead at the moment, and she seems like the type to be talkative behind the scenes. Given that, our best move would be to eat her tomorrow night and cut that off before she catches on to any of us.

Yeah, Takino's not a wolf.

Are you sure we can't accidentally eat the other wolf? I think it's Light. He's the only one with stars next to his name who hasn't turned up yet, and one of the people with stars is probably a wolf...

[cfuw-shepherd.livejournal.com]

TO GET YOU ALL THE HELL UP TO DATE, NONE OF THE WOLVES RECEIVED A RIDDLE. SOME RETARD ACCIDENTALLY WHINED ABOUT THIS TO SOME OF YOU.

IGNORE HER.

The fourth wolf has contacted me. They'd rather not divulge their identity, but they can see what's going on in here and they know who we are. I know who they are, so if we're in danger of ousting them, I'll say something. Otherwise, it's best to let things lie.

Tomo still looks like a good choice for eating at the moment. Does anyone honestly believe she's a wolf? I doubt we'd be able to convince anyone of that, so it's best to cut her off while we can.

Doctor, you've been talkative. Can you try getting them to focus on the asterisks? I'd do it myself, but I've gotten a reputation for being somewhat quiet in the open. If I say anything like that out there at this point, I'll look suspicious. I think you could get away with it, though. Ash and Light look like good options. Keep in mind that we're actually not supposed to discuss what's in our e-mails.

And don't try to swing the votes off of me explicitly, either of you. Focus in on what we have. Maybe point out that it's smarter to focus on one of those, since we have no other leads, and see where it takes us. They've been discussing what to focus on in the threads -- I'd recommend chiming in on one of those rather than starting a new one.

[thedrisinu.livejournal.com]

I'll see what I can do.

[darkasthe.livejournal.com]

... hahh. Mikoto, apologies. Things came up in locked posts; those votes were Ikki's and mine. It looks like you'll be going up with Il Palazzo who comes across as being more suspicious. Play it up with Tomo who seems to trust you at the moment and say you were confused about the red herrings and you should be fine. I'm going to keep talking with Ikki and see where we lay.

Also, I'm not so certain about eating Tomo anymore. It seems there are people that are suspicious of her. What about, mm ... Ash?

[darkasthe.livejournal.com]

Did either of you get anything in your inboxes?

[thedrisinu.livejournal.com]

No.

[plzdontdome.livejournal.com]

People are voting Ikki out?

[plzdontdome.livejournal.com]

Hey, where is everyone?!

I know who you are, fourth wolf!

[darkasthe.livejournal.com]

Have you voted yet?

[plzdontdome.livejournal.com]

So what are we doing?

[darkasthe.livejournal.com]

The fourth wolf and I want to eat Chizuru. Now that we're down to normal odds, safe sheep are going to start piling up. It's for the best if we take them out quickly.

[darkasthe.livejournal.com]

Let's mix it up tonight. I doubt a clue will come out, so ... ah, I'd recommend piling onto Kakeru and Dietrich. If anyone wants to speak up about Dietrich, he was listed in the last clue. Shinku is always a good option, too.

Tonight, I'd recommend eating Ikki. Mostly because she had to go to Otacon and won't be around for the rest of the game, so. Er. Let's keep things fair and leave the active players in, yes? ♥

[plzdontdome.livejournal.com]

Dietrich?

[thedrisinu.livejournal.com]

Sorry to be so late: I'll put my vote on Dietrich. And we might as well.

[darkasthe.livejournal.com]

... ah, after this ousting, they'll know that there's still four of us around.

[plzdontdome.livejournal.com]

Really?

[euphiemisms.livejournal.com]

Do your best, Mikoto.

[plzdontdome.livejournal.com]

Thanks.

[darkasthe.livejournal.com]

... I can't believe that actually worked.

[euphiemisms.livejournal.com]

It was brilliant.
