Actually, I rather got the impression that he was challenging morm's suggestion.
Exactly so. I found Morm's suggestion surprising, but not altogether impossible (though very nearly so).

I don't believe that I've flip flopped once, Menel. My first accusation was against you, to be sure, but that was after some observations just as cold as Alcarillo's.

It was not 'Later', as you put it, it was in the same post. I felt a strange dislike for his politicianing skills from his first post on. I made only one post yesterDAY and that was where I voiced the two people I suspected. Today, I've held through with my reasoning set on one person, up till now, and I can tell you, I'm not one to suddenly decide something because someone throws it out there.

He seems to avoid proposing ideas of his own and instead just nods his head in agreement with others. I think he may be a werebeast trying to stay out of trouble by agreeing with everybody.
I beg to differ. I have put up plenty of opposition to different things. I can't say I agree that to kill TGWBS was an attempt to frame Alcarillo, though many others have mentioned this. (And you'll laugh at me when it's made clear that Alcarillo is one of my main suspects because of his death.) I don't understand why wolves should vote for Bergil when he was an innocent, silent citizen. They might have pounced on anyone else. If they wanted Alcarillo done in by the villagers, why not take advantage of so many votes and have him lynched yesterday instead of framing him with TGWBS's death? It might have gone the other way, you know. Many people have accused Glirdan of possible werewolvishness, have I ever mentioned him?

And you may ask why I answer your accusation with such fierceness, and I'll answer with - I don't want to be killed. Anyone can see that your accusation is totally in earnest, and it could make sense, if those points against me were true.

What's more, many of our village numbers have been already killed (a considerable amount, anyway), and it would be a shame and pity to waste your research on me, because I am absolutely and entirely innocent. You'll find no interior motives in any of my words or posts...I merely wish to clean this village of werecreatures.

-------------------------------

I realize that I am putting up considerable risk if I decide to vote for Alcarillo this evening. What if he is, after all, innocent? Then whoever has voted for him will be suspected. Perhaps I should wait...I can afford that. I have, however, unearthed another villlager to be wary of - Kath.

Ok morm your cross posting theory I will buy but I still don't entirely get the vote. Since you knew that I did not trust you why would you assume that I would want you to 'jump on your bandwagon' as you say? If anything I would want you away from the votes so that if you were later lynched and revealed to be a wolf I would be in no way linked to you. I don't want to be linked to you. In answer to your other point I have mentioned Azaelia once, in my last post in fact. But I haven't really talked about her because I don't find her suspicious. Ok, yes, she voted for Bergil but so did a lot of people. She voted late but some people didn't vote at all.
The cross posting theory doesn't make any sense. Why should she buy it with the little evidence that Morm put out? Is she hoping to cast doubt on the two of them (Phantom and SpM)? If those two are both villagers and they are both reasoning against the wolves, won't the wolves want them doubted and hopefully someday dead?

And people's suspicion towards Azaelia were not only for her vote for Bergil......

There are things have to be explained. No, of course you don't want to be linked with Mormegil. No one wants to be linked with anybody who turns out to be a werewolf. But anybody might be a werewolf in this game. Anybody. So, according to your reasoning in this paragraph, if you didn't want to vote with Morm because if he's someday lynched, you had jolly well better not vote with anybody because they may, too, turn out to be a were creature.
