Of course you did. You are the most careful of craftsmen. It's just that, with all the hundreds of knives I have sold, I've never had another bad report. Well, I am flummoxed. But to show my good faith and to try to make amends, I am willing to refund you a full ONE-FOURTH of the price you paid. I'm sure this will more than make up for any inconvenience.

Well, should we meet again as innocents in happier times, perhaps we shall discuss your offer.
Back to business...
Adding another problem with
LMP's plan. It's already been pointed out that the leader becomes the automatic target for the wolves. Automatic targets are bad because they don't leave a trail for discussion of why the wolves picked said villager. Rather than being able to debate if the villager was on to something and eaten for that reason or chosen as a safe bet, the conversation becomes "So-and-so was our leader. The wolves ate the leader" End of story. So I have to add my name to the list of those who oppose the plan.
Glirdan's vote swings seem odd. But because of his reasoned response to
lmp's plan, I'll willing to presume him an innocent for now, with the caveat that he probably bears watching.
Bergil has also been acting strangely, but he did preface the early vote wth a warning, so that doesn't give me anything on go on. Another one to keep my eye on.
Which leaves this list:
Presumed innocent (mostly my same list from before - nothing happened to change my mind on them)
Anguirel
Menel
Lalaith
Me- of course I don't suspect myself. As far as I'm concerned, calm under fire is the only way to keep from going out of my head in this nightmare era.
Firefoot
lmp - disagree with his plan, but the fact that he offered one speak well for him.
Eonwe
Kath - I'm not really inclined to put defensiveness down to wolvishness unless combined with other signs since innocents have reason to defend themselves too.
Kuru - another seeming voice of reason
Wilwa - no reason to suspect her from her post.
Kitanna - gives reasonable enough analysis.
Bear watching (only mild suspicions of anyone here):
Glirdan
Bergil
for reasons given above
WaynetheGoblin - just because I don't have anything to draw conclusions about him from yet.
tar-ancalime - just because I'm not really sure what to make of her. Gives a good response to lmp, but there's just an odd feeling about her. Nothin concrete.
Hmm, that doesn't really get me anywhere. Of the watch list, I'm most likely to suspect Glirdan for the sudden opinion changes, though this is only a MILD suspicion. I'm far from ready to vote for anyone yet.
Have to run and get myself ready to go to the shop...
