Sorry for my absence, the Bears in the playoffs takes priority...

Delightful, Volo! It is radical indeed to venture away from your big three of Nogrod, Boro, and Ang...particularly considering two out of those three are dead and proved innocent.

I am honored to take Boro and Nogrod's place.

Once again, I'm afraid I must agree with your suspicion of Menel and Rune. Personally, I find Menel more suspicious because I see more connections surrounding him. Connections can easily be drawn from Menel to Volo and to Valier, the three of them dropping the "they seem innocent because of such and such" left and right about each other.

For an example of this, take a look at Menel's post #123 and #129, and Valier's post #130. I asked Valier why she thought Menel was innocent because he was essentially defending Volo (or if she meant something else), but I don't believe she ever answered.

I also find Menel more suspicious because of his connection with Boro's death. Actually, Boro suspected a Menel-Volo connection. I think it is quite possible that the Wolves tried to get Boro the night Farael died, but Farael protected him...this simply based on the fact that if the Wolves really wanted him dead (which I think they had to...Ang is right - the wolves have to get rid of the Seer; also, leaving Boro alive can be a good thing, because as is obvious, people like him and Nogrod, the talkative, take charge ones, are good players for wolves to point suspicion towards to keep people distracted), and so if they tried one Night and the Protector was protecting him, they'd just go for it again the next Night.

I think we need to stop going after the subtleties. I think the Wolves are hiding right in front of our faces. There's been lots of talk of suspicion of a number of people, but in the end they don't garner many votes. The lynch victims have been obvious...they've been unquestionably ahead in the votes. The Wolves aren't sneaking around the spreading the voting, because they don't have to.

Don't over think...go for the obvious.

But also remember that we need to get a Wolf. So please, please hold off on voting as long as you can.
