Rune's two last posts have really scared me. The first one about "dubble lynchings" is quite scary in itself: of course the double-lynch can be used even for good, to get two wolves, but the chance is so small - and even then, how would you arrange the villagers to vote all (even the wolves) the way that two wolves get lynched? In other words, what sort of a nonsense is that?
If we skip total luck where two wolves are tied for voting and no one of their comrades retracts a vote (probably explained by saying "oh, double-kill is too dangerous, what if one is innocent?") to save them; the only possible situation where I can imagine this working, would be if for example the Seer revealed two Wolves and said it to the whole village, and the village somehow (and I would like to see, how) divided the votes between themselves so that the votes are tied in the end. But even in that case, one of the Wolves could just vote for himself to save his comrade, to prolongate the period for one more day. So this, in my opinion, cannot work.
I wouldn't believe such an experienced player could say such a nonsense, so I'm not sure what to make of your statement, Rune. Even a wolf would not be so stupid to say this, I believe. So unless you are a Cobbler..?

However, that's not all that raises alarm. Rune's words about Brinniel:

This looks almost like checking if Brinniel is a Gifted, and maybe even a subtle way of an attempt to throw Brinniel (if she were a Gifted indeed) into a state of panic and in case situation started to move just a little bit in a bad way for her, causing her coming in front of us saying "No, I am this and this, please leave me alone". However, maybe if Rune indeed were a wolf and wanted to bring Brinn forth, he'd also vote for her to enlarge the pressure.

Concerning Brinniel, while I'm keeping an eye on her, I don't want to make a case against her, at least not now. First reason is, there is more than enough other people against whom to make a case. Second, I don't want to trigger anything that could cause her to be for the third time killed pre-maturely with my assistence, at least not until I am more sure that she is a Wolf. And as I said, there are more people of whom I am more sure.

And Ang's last post I completely agree with. It's shown in the narrations, and I really don't believe Volo would make up that role.

Now something to the business at hand. I have checked toDay's vote list, and apart from Shasta, who suddenly&unfortunately chose to vote for me, there are yet two other to vote for me. And these are Boro&SpM. I am fairly convinced at least one of them is a Wolf, and I am probably going to vote one of them. Anyone has any ideas about these two? Since Volo already voted for Boromir, I'll probably vote for him as well, also for the reason that the matter does not look much good for me, so I'd prefer him over SpM for whom there is no vote thus far.

The votes thus far:

Shasta: ++Legate (Legate-1)
SpM: ++Legate (Legate-2)
Boro: ++Legate (Legate-3)
Lommy: ++xyzzy (Legate-3; xyzzy-1)
Volo: ++Boro (Legate-3; xyzzy-1; Boro-1)
Anguirel: ++Brinniel (Legate-3; xyzzy-1; Boro-1; Brinniel-1)
Rune son of Bjarne: ++Macalaure (Legate-3; xyzzy-1; Boro-1; Brinniel-1; Mac-1)
