The Saucepan Man has been trapped in the Barrow!

And that might not be a bad thing to-Day. It might flush out one or two more Wolves, unless you have already agreed that, if necessary, they should sacrifice you. Personally, I have no fear of death. I am not gifted, so my death would not be the worst choice the village could make. There would still be one more chance to get it right.

No. Not a lie at all. You see, I had stated that that Formendacil looked most supicious on the basis of the criteria that I stated at the outset, and there had been some questions raised on those criteria - Shelob and Marcolie both queried them, as well as Cailin. Indeed, I had interpreted Marcolie as having queried Abercrombie questioning of Formendacil's early vote. I must admit that I had thought that mormegil had expressed agreement of Cailin's words of caution on Formendacil before you started backtracking. But, looking back now, I see that was not the case.

But it matters not. The fact is you did backtrack. And you did so because you worked out (or were at least concerned), on the basis of the comments made in the intervening period, that a bandwagon against Formendacil was unlikely to start gathering serious momentum and that you might end up looking suspicoous for your early accusation.

I am more than happy to let the village be the judge of whether I was "bullying" you on Day 1, as patently I was not.

Not quite yet. Your death would rid the village of a Wolf. My death would at least help the village to make the right decision to-Morrow.
