This was my thinking as well, excpet if there was the possibility of Agnes being Draco and Lucius being a recruiter, why would they would have killed her?

If the team is concerned Lucius has the possibility of being a traitor role, which, in their position would be a concern for me, I would consider it a good choice. Of course, I think the real hope they had with the kill was that Agnes was Harry, and by targeting her N1 they could set her up to be killed later in the game at their pleasure (more or less, N2 wouldn't be doable since they cannot double target, but with Neville only having 2 protects, N3 or N4 would be my expected time frame for them having tried to kill her again had she survived).

The importance of killing Harry early on for them of course (and why it was worth the risk to target her given she could have been Draco who they could potentially have wanted to recruit), would outweigh any other benefits. We know there is going to be a hunt for the Hollows (starting N2 with the cloak), and it also says 'and many more', which presumably refers to us eventually having to hunt down and destroy Horcruxes. Since Dumbledore is not a player role, my guess is he (along with other major characters no one has), will come into the game as helpers in these efforts. They all have secret roles, meaning they could, and probably do, know things the rest of us do not. In my opinion, it is likely that Harry will (if alive) play an important part in these events, giving them motive to off that role as fast as they possibly can.

This isn't really where I'd like to see discussion go today though. It's D2, and I want to baddie hunt, not guess at what is in store for us down the road, since, at least for me, all it is is guesswork, and that's no immediate use, since the strategy for the NK is one I would see anyone using, and this being a sock puppet game, even if I could narrow down people who would vs people who wouldn't, I would have no practical way of using the beliefs I formed (although I guess if other people start making it as a good a bet whose behind the sock as I have between my last post and this one, that would be less of a problem).

So, in that vein, of the three names I put forward, do you see any of them being possibilities for your vote today, and if not, do you have anyone else in mind? This is an open question to everyone, but since you and I seem to be on a similar wavelength, at least at present, this referring to both you saying you're thinking along at least similar lines to the Malfoys, and your post regarding the houses. To me that means you're looking at the game in the same way I am, and that early honesty (which will probably get a target painted on both our backs, at least for NK targets) makes me lean towards trusting you.

It wasn't weird at all. It made utter sense. What it says is that Voledemot's Army cannot survive lynches. Agnes' survival told them what they need to no.

And do you really think McGonagall is a baddie? What kind of messed up game setup would that be?

Really, you're going to assume that a team of four players, all with secret roles is friendly to civvies?

Mary Eastey wrote:Oh come on! This is different then an indie role, this is a whole damn team! We know nothing about them! Are you really going to sit there and assume they are good? What the hell are you on, and can I have some?

I'm not surprised at all. She can't be lynched. She's not bad.

The end.

Agnes Sampson wrote: Entjen started by giving me the botd but also saying it could be a baddie thing. Then in her very next post she says to Barbara who had said no one has mentioned lynching me that it was worth lynching me because people have been lynched for less. She never answered Malins post. .

Now Rebecca has voted for me because she thinks I havent caught up. What a load of crapadoodle!
