My interpretation of was, if you forgot food you had to choose whether to eat, if you forgot drink you had to choose whether to drink. It was just worded poorly.Boogs wrote:?

(Man I'm really into playing Devil's Advocate today, but please bear with me because of my conflicted feelings about Eloh)
You mentioned above that you stated "She hasn't contributed a single original thought."
However, If Eloh was indeed on a team (and thus she voted earlier to save/attempt to save a teammate) then wouldn't her teammates be feeding her some original things she could say, if she hasn't found her feet yet in such a large game?
Please let me know if this was not as coherent as I intended. I'm a bit in a rush to make it to yoga on time.
(Eloh, I hope it doesn't make you feel awkward me talking about you when you're in the room, sug).

BUT if we can do a universal comparison to see which players NEITHER of them cited? I think that would be a good list to have, my friend. We might get some gold out of that.

And again, I'm leery of the causation = correlation argument, so even though Eloh is on that list -- that alone isn't enough to ensure my vote for her without some intense, corroborating evidence.
I got the impression that Mongoose did not want to suspect Eloh.Mongoose wrote: linki Kitty
Dude if she was that conspicuous and I was her teammate? I'd be super pissed.
And your impression is dead on. I do want to open the field more to just Eloh to a) ensure more thorough baddie hunting and b) to make sure a potentially-innocent Eloh doesn't get wrapped up in a flawed Causation = Correlation Gambit.I think she very easily could have voted me, and if she had known I was going to vote her, maybe she would have (I don't mean for petty retaliatory reasons, obv). But you know her a lot better, so you are the better judge of that.
In case there's a Lie Detector in this game (or an item) - I'm not on either baddie team. I also have pretty hair.

Clarify, Host!
These interpretations are correct. If, and ONLY if, you voted that you forgot food or drink in the Night 1 poll, you may choose to receive what you forgot from the mysterious elf tonight. You may also choose to refuse.Turnip Head wrote:I think the options are "receive a gift from the Elves according to the item you forgot", or "No, refuse their hospitality".

If you didn't forget drink but still REALLY want elven wine, you are welcome to it, I suppose. The mysterious elf did offer it, so he can't really do take-backsies without being a bad host.Metalmarsh89 wrote:I didn't forget anything (aside to vote in the Night 1 poll). Can I still have elven wine?

She knew I wasn't. Therefore she was not being genuine here and thinking that I was on the other scum team.
I think she chose me over Mongoose for a reason (teammates).
The problem is Mongooses' vote for FZ.
But it is possible Mongoose placed it there not thinking that FZ would end up with so many votes (Heck, I didn't think she would!)

If you did NOT forget food or drink (for example, if you voted that you forgot a rope or diary, if you were not playing on Night 1, or if you forgot to vote in that poll), then it's probably simplest if you refuse the elf's hospitality. However...

If anyone has already voted an option that is not appropriate to their situation, you may PM me and I will announce your vote change in-thread. The poll can be changed when I put it in the Polls thread to reflect any changes as well. If you nee further clarification, please ask in thread or PM me and I'll be happy to answer for individual situations.
Once again, sorry for the confusion. I will try to make future Night polls more clear.

If I am being honest, Rey really helped reenforce my suspicion of FZ so I was thinking it wasn't him. He was vocal against her when no one else other than me, really, was. I guess it could be distancing gone wrong. Not sure how I feel about the idea of them being partners.
