i realy hope you reconsider McNutt. By no means am i one these spawn of evil, though i have no more proof than my word right now. If you notice i said the seers find each other so that they can work together to give us a victory i was not asking one of them to contact me, that would be a blatant vampire play in my opinion.
I am not going to cast a retalitory vote right now as i suspect some others though i will not cast such a vote until i hear more being said by all and how they react to todays events.

Actually, I am considering casting a vote against McNutt, but not for voting for Arcanis. His vote for pr0ner has me troubled. Was it a honest vote for someone he thought was a blood sucking fiend or a ploy to throw off the villagers that he is a creature of the night.
Crude or could the soulless fiends be using McNutt earlier vote to cause us to vote for a innocent. To many variables

I voted for pr0ner because he changed his vote to fit the majority. It's not a great reason to vote for somebody, but I thought it was better than a random vote. My vote for Arcanis feels much less random to me. I may be wrong, but I'd rather not just throw out a name at random. Right now I'm picking someone that truly strikes me as a vampire.
Lick it up, baby!
edit - what I said didn't make sense as it sounded like pr0ner was still alive.

Our early interests are in mcnutt and pr0ner? is there anything real to substantiate that, or are we going off 1st round voting?
Hopefully the seers have found someone to trust. Finding all the inncents is as important as finding the vamps.

I looked back at what has been posted earlier and I can't find anything, not even a hint of anything substantial. If anyone has any ideas I would like to hear them. We have McNutts vote for Arcanis...but it just doesn't seem right to me. Anybody? If anyone can give a somewhat decent argument then I'll vote.

Noise incoming.
I think the biggest thing an alpha vampire would want to guard against is having the domino theory take down him and his two bloodsucking buddies. It wouldn't surprise me to learn that the Vampire had picked one teammate with whom he was familiar; if the Vamp has been a citizen of another village, I'd expect him to choose a teammate he may know from another village. It would then also make sense for the Vamp to choose a more "out of left field" Vampire. A wildcard, if you will.

If you're a vamp, I think there are two options: 1). Post a lot to deflect attention or 2). Be very quiet and hope people forget about/don't pay attention to you.
So far, it looks like there are 7 or 8 people (including me) that are doing to majority of posting/guesswork, but no one person is posting a ton more than everyone else.
From a quick estimate, it looks like there are only 2 people not posting much at all (Kelric being the most obvious).
What this all means, I don't know. But it's something. Maybe.

I'm keeping my vote for Arcanis. He hasn't said anything since I mentioned that his posts contained "tells" that I picked up on. I feel he might be picking over his posts to see what I'm talking about. Or maybe he just has a life.
I've yet to be contacted by a seer, so either the seer didn't ask about me or did and was told I was a vampire. I'm guessing it's the former.

I came home from work and my girlfriend had taken the laptop to school with her, leaving me without internet and bored as hell. I was expecting to sign back in and discover everyone had voted for me. I'm surprised to see that no one has really voted for anyone. A couple accusations thrown at Kelric, but that's it. Maybe tomorrow will have more action or someone will make a mistake and play their hand.

I'm voting for Jiffy, but I sure can be persuaded otherwise by a strong argument from someone.

I don't know about Jiffy. He does seem to protest his innocent a bit much, but that might not mean he's a werewolf.
Arkon, however, seems a bit wishy-washy in making a choice - most of his posts have been pretty fluffy. That seems a bit suspicious to me, though I really don't have much to go on at the moment.

Hey, is there any chance we can keep the main list on the first page updated with the daily dead and killed as well? Just makes it easier than having to go back through the thread looking for the latest list each time. Mostly because I'm so far behind and have to catch up on my reading here.
Jiffy seems to get accused in these games every time for no real reason. For this round I see as much reason to vote for him as I do for everybody else - almost none.
For now I'm going with triggercut, but reserve the right to change my vote if someone can come up with a good reason to vote for someone else. He just seems like a good potential ally of the vampires, or at least may be targeted as such, so maybe he got turned. Honestly, at this point, I have no idea who to vote for and am just going with a gut move.
By the way, if I was a vampire (which I'm not) and was going 'the quiet route', it'd be incredibly obvious. I'm known to post a lot so it would be noted that I wasn't posting - as it has been mentioned several times already - and would pretty much blow it. If anything, I think I'd want to post at my usual pace to keep suspicion down.

well McNutt was right about one thing i do have a life i was away from the computer doing work since aobut 3:45, just getting home from my night job.
And i'm in the same boat as most of us, i have not been contacted by a seer, nor a vampire. so i have no evidence to prove my innocence as of yet. I realy hope that I can survive until a seer reviels one or all of the vampires and has the voting block to destroy them.

I think it makes some sense to suspect folks who have been in a lot of games--sadly though, most of us are on our third or fourth game o' Werewolf, so there's that.
Thing is, I'd expect many higher profile heavy posters in this thread to be dreamt upon, and then acted upon by the seers. If it's happening, it's under the radar so far, but probably won't be for long. There are a couple of players who don't post very much outside these threads, but are fairly active in them. *Those* are the ones I'm watching, because those are the players I'd pick if I were the alpha vamp.
In the meantime, I'm reading Arcanis' explanation of his light posting, and it makes sense to me. I withdraw my vote for Arcanis
So whom to vote for this round?
I think pr0ner's death was a ploy to get McNutt lynched, and it was a pretty ham-handed one. I'm actually considering that when I'm thinking about who the vampires could be.
And but still, as Wiggum points out, it's so obviously over-the top that this in itself could be a deception. It certainly could by the obvious object of suspicion--McNutt--a few days of reprieve. In a game with three monsters, provided he's picked his accomplices well, those few days could be enough to tip the scales to the enemy. It'd be a very sly play.
That alone isn't enough to earn an accusation from me. But it's something I'm thinking on.

I thought on this last night and I am voting for McNutt. The ploy seems cheap and I would think McNutt would rationalize that we wouldn't hang him for such a cheap and obvious ploy. I'm going to play this out. My vote isn't set in stone as I can still be swayed to withdraw my vote
