First, I think there were probably wolves in both bandwaggons yesterday (Eomer and Oddwen). One in the former, and two in the latter. Looked at that way, the people who look most suspicious in my mind are Lalaith and Eomer, and I think that only one is a wolf.
Jenny, you read my mind. I was thinking that same thing, though for the Oddwen bandwagon Diamond's vote placement seems the most suspicious, but I'm pretty convinced Diamond is not guilty. So Eomer would be my second choice in that.
I agree Lalaith is probably the wolf in the Eomer bandwagon. One reason is I still think Roa was getting (or trying in Gurthang's family) a wolf from each family line that was not her own. And I was wrong about Oddwen and that leaves Lalaith because she is the only other member of that family.

Also Lalaith's first few posts have me a bit worried.

Look at him yesterday. Gloating about Glirdan and Zali being away.
And this.

I too would vote for me if I was in your shoes
I remember Eomer's post when he mentioned Zali and Glirdan being gone and I don't think that counts as gloating. He was stating a sad fact that we were going to be out two votes for the day.

I'm not sure what Lalaith is trying to prove with that quote from Eomer voting for himself had he been "in their shoes." I see what he's saying and he knows he looks suspicious and he's not hiding the fact many think he's a wolf at this point. But what exactly is Lalaith trying to get us to see?

Diamond=Why do I suddenly get the feeling that both Lal and Eomer are wovles?
I'm not so sure that's true. One is a wolf for sure, but not both. If this was happening earlier in the game I would say both could be wolves, but not now. Not with precious few days left.

I know that wolfing times are very foggy, but I feel like Eomer was under a lot of scrutiny from Morm early on, until he switched to an easier target (namely, me).
That's actually a very good point. I still find it highly likely Morm attacked Eomer until he guessed Eomer might be a wolf as well. But I've seen Morm's wolven ancestors just switch targets from one innocent to another just because one seem like a better lynch target.

Why on earth would the EW pick me to be a wolf?
Because she had a LOT of picks, and you'd survived a long time already when she picked you. I'm not saying she would have picked you right off, I think you were turned quite near the end.
Eomer went through a heavy bout of suspicion and it was to be expected, I mean, it's Eomer and all. So that makes him a really terrible first choice.
So this is what I think:
Loki we know was one of the first wolves, Naria was probably a Night One wolf as well and I think Nogrod was the other one.
So the next night Alcarillo was cursed
Then on Night Three or possibly Four Valier was cursed
And then Morm was picked as the final wolf for Night Six

Now if Eomer was to be picked it would be guessed he was put chosen on Night Four or Five. I'd say if Lalaith was picked she's be picked early on, maybe Night Three.
By Night Four Eomer had gotten through a lot of suspicion already and he was still smelling like roses, so Roa saw many had abandoned the Bluffer King as a suspect and so she decided to make all their suspicions true.
As for Lalaith, she would have established early on that she was not a usual suspect for most people and that she was generally considered innocent. Roa sees Lalaith as she flies under the radar for the first few days, adding thoughtful posts to the village and gaining a lot of credit amoung the villagers. Roa seizes the opportunity and curses Lalaith early knowing that if she is lynched she will most likely be lynched later on when there are plenty of wolves hanging around still.

Eomer's posts have just felt more and more frustrated to me, which makes a lot of sense if someone is wildly and consistently accusing you, and then using your every defense to bolster their "case". He's just feeling more innocent each day.
I'd be really worried if Eomer wasn't frustrated. He's in a tough spot, sitting on the fence, knowing that this could be his last day, and Lalaith seems to be trying to instill fear in all of us so we push Eomer off the fence. So, he has every right to be frustrated and I know a lot of us would be acting like him if we were in this situation. If Eomer was acting all calm about this and completely dismissing Lalaith's suspicions I'd be really worried and would not hesitate to vote for him. But his increasing frustrated posts speak well of him.

So, this is going to be my only post for the day, unless by some weird accident I'm home before Day ends. Given what I've seen today and knowing either Lalaith is guilty or Eomer is, I'm going to vote

++ Lalaith

She seems to be fishing the bottom of the barrel today to find things to convict Eomer of and her reasons from yesterday were not . That worries me. Also I mentioned yesterday I didn't like Lalaith using the Caran protecting him and him still being alive thing as evidence. I think it could have been a set-up by the remaining wolves and the fact Lalaith brought it up makes me think it was a set-up and she just wants to get the village to lynch the innocent Eomer. And finally it's been said before, but Lalaith would have been an excellent wolf choice from the beginning. Her ability to fly under the radar for so long is uncanny and pretty disturbing.
