"Or many others still here..." You're right with this! Why wouldn't they have killed Mith or Lalaith, or Lommy or Durelin or tgwbs or Legate or...? How do you make a difference? Maybe one should look at whom the Faithfuls wouldn't like to see around in this confused situation where everyone is as suspicious as any other? But they would not kill one of themselves as the rules deny the chance...

So whom do we have there but you Mr. SPM? It was the Faithfuls' first actual night of open choice last Night if you don't remeber. They had everyone but me on their plate... and if you're innocent they just happily ignored you as they thought that an innocent Spm's analysis would leave them intact toDay and would be less of a threat to them than Rune? Remember the numbers...

As for the reason behind Rune's death, I think that Nogrod has probably put his finger on it. His final two words most likely sealed his fate, suggesting as they did his innocence. Although it will be worth looking at those he suspected and those who voted for him to see whether there may have been other motives
You just can't be serious here! In this situation the Faithfuls have no reason to shy away from killing an "innocent Spm" just because Rune had one of them on his suspicion list! C'mon man and admit it!

So aren't you now trying to mislead people here to spend their time on that? The killing of Rune can be explained as it's clearly because of his honest frustration ("Silly sods") when he thought (mistakingly) that we had lynched him. But just consider the scale here. Somewhat dubiously shared belief of Rune's innocence (which four Faithfuls could thwart easily at least to a degree where it would not be a shared fact) vs. the possibly damning analyses by Spm?

I have backed down with suspecting you lately because of a lack of any further evidence and because I have thought (and still do) that as an innocent you would be an asset to the village, but now I'm getting the "proofs" I need to call for your immediate lynching... followed by lynching of tgwbs who has generously come to "doubt you a little".

Sorry guys but you are caught.

That's what I think anyway now.

I hope I will have time enough later toDay to elaborate on this and possibly to see to some others too (Durelin I'm a bit worried about but just can't pin it down as yet).
