Actually, I would beg to differ slightly on that point. I voted for myself last game and it was the only thing that managed to save my ordo-life and kill the last remaining wolf in the game. Granted, that was late in the game and I had to retract my self-vote to catch the wolf, but you see what I mean. There's always exceptions to the rule.

Okay. I had a ton to catch up on, so this isn't going to be very in depth (information overloads tend to leave me confused) but I have some observations:
  • Valier has left us hints in the narration, apparently. I'm not sure I like this. It's confusing.
  • Eonwe and Farael seem to be in the Day 1 running for "most suspicious" and Sleepy is coming up third.
  • It seems just about everyone besides Garin and perhaps Roa have thrown characterization to the wind. My own feeble attempt to maintain any sort of character will be to put a beer mug at the head of all my posts. Weeeeeee.
  • I have a few hours to spare before I must vote, seeing as I will be around till close to the deadline. This won't happen every day, but aren't we lucky toDay.

Other things I've noted is that for some reason which strikes me as odd:

Alcarillo voted for Farael, and in the very next post, Farael laid out a defense for Alca. No one was questiong Alca's vote or casting suspicion on him, so what's with the detailed defense? Why is it so important to speak up for the person who just voted for you, before anyone even has the chance to give an opinion on that vote? Curious.

Ha ha! I like this. It's cute. But anyway, Garin, I think my post was obviously a tongue-in-cheek attempt at addressing the "let's vote randomly" idea. Note I also suggested I'd vote for Nogrod because he's the 7th person on the list and I'd like to eat chocolate 7 days a week.

This isn't to say I don't have my eye on both of you in a serious way, of course.

Right now that's all I have to comment on. Maybe once I've read through the posts again I'll have something more interesting to add. In the meantime, seeing as I'm not obligated to vote yet, I won't.
