Okay, class is over. (That French exam was agonising to see . . . ) Here's the promised DAY 3 analysis--it's disappointing, though.
One can group the voters into three groups: the
Kath bandwaggon, the duelists's votes, and . . . miscellaneous.
I think it's not a far-fetched to imagine a Wolf in each group.
Under the first group we have
Durelin,
Valier, and
Lommy. To say something about the victim,
Kath was a bit suspicious to begin with, but his biased analysis of
Nogrod (qq.v.
213,
218) was the nail that cost the kingdom (or something like that).
Durelin's reason for voting (q.v.
219) was sound. GOING HOTLY AFTER SOMEONE WITHOUT CIRCUMSPECTION AT A CRITICAL PHASE OF THE GAME IS A
BAD MOVE (a warning to all out there, even myself.) I see little to be suspicious of her at the moment.
Valier accepted the arguments set forth at face-value (q.v.
230.) Quite suspicious, and added to that she throws suspicion at me out of nowhere, alluding to my lack of sensible posts.
Lommy's vote lacks reasoning (I did try looking for one, but apparently she believed
Boromir 'has good points, especially that one about
Kath.' (q.v.
234) In the same post she answers
Boro's suspicion of her. Interesting . . .
Also, she trusts a wolf-
Menel to be able to reveal himself easier. Perhaps, it can be read to mean that if
Menel is lynched and turns out to be furry, she can get credit for it. Hmmm . . .
Next, the 'duel'-voters:
Menel's reason to vote for
Rune (q.v.
207) is rather feeble, and it has been even more weakened due to
Nogrod's innocence, yet he holds on to it toDAY until
Durelin tells him that his analysis of
Lommy makes more sense--see
277 then read on to the bottom of the page.
Whoa.
Ang posted this gem (
239) which made him suspicious of
Nogrod. Although he ended up wrong, he seems to think of nothing but the good of this village. (All hail the King under the Mountain!)
Nilp: I still think
Volo is fanged. But hey, I'm expanding my horizons.
Now, the others. (Sorry.)
Holby seized on
Lommy's strange vote for
Eomer back in DAY 1. (q.v.
233)
Rune's casus voting (q.v.
238) makes me scratch my head. And a bit uneasy . . .
Volo didn't vote. Maybe his furry friends lectured him not to vote rashly.
Now, what have I learned from this?
Lommy and
Menel feels hairy, but if they are two of the Wolves I find their tactic strange. They're trying to get each other killed! Then again, a wolf-
Menel back in WWIX did the same thing with
Shelob, and they won that game with their numbers intact. (A little history; it makes
Menel look all the more dangerous to me.)
Who could the third Wolf be?
Rune?
Valier?
Volo?!
