Well, you seemed to have no qualms about turning against a Boro who was clearly unlikely to be able to return to defend himself. I am well aware that Legate will be absent toDay. However, it most certainly does not preclude his Wolfishness. And there is more than enough evidence to condemn him already, in my view.
Now, the Day 2 votes.
Shasta: ++Legate (Legate-1)
SpM: ++Legate (Legate-2)
Boromir: ++Legate (Legate-3)
Lommy: ++Xyzzy (Legate-3, Xyzzy-1)
Volo: ++Boromir (Legate-3, Xyzzy-1, Boromir-1)
Anguirel: ++Brinniel (Legate-3, Xyzzy-1, Boromir-1, Brinniel-1)
Rune: ++Mac (Legate-3, Xyzzy-1, Boromir-1, Brinniel-1, Mac-1)
Kath: ++Rune (Legate-3, Xyzzy-1, Boromir-1, Brinniel-1, Mac-1, Rune-1)
Legate: ++Boromir (Legate-3, Xyzzy-1, Boromir-2, Brinniel-1, Mac-1, Rune-1)
Mac: ++Rune (Legate-3, Xyzzy-1, Boromir-2, Brinniel-1, Mac-1, Rune-2)
Aganzir: ++Boromir (Legate-3, Xyzzy-1, Boromir-3, Brinniel-1, Mac-1, Rune-2)
Diamond: ++Boromir (Legate-3, Xyzzy-1, Boromir-4, Brinniel-1, Mac-1, Rune-2)
Rune: --Mac, ++Boromir (Legate-3, Xyzzy-1, Boromir-5, Brinniel-1, Rune-2)
Brinniel: ++Rune (Legate-3, Xyzzy-1, Boromir-5, Brinniel-1, Rune-3)
Did not vote: Durelin, Xyzzy, Gil
Legate voters: Shasta, SpM, Boro
Legate’s votes were received early in the Day. I am surprised that he did not receive more, but I consider that this was largely down to his own devious machinations (and those of his fellows) throughout the Day. Because I am convinced that Legate is a Wolf, and know two of the Legate voters to be innocent, I consider Shasta also likely to be innocent. It would have been a dangerous wolf-on-wolf vote.
Boro voters: Volo, Legate, Aganzir, Diamond, Rune (retracted from Mac)
I have no reason to reconsider the veracity of Volo’s claim (although his insistance on Legate's innocence is beginning to unnerve me), so his vote was innocent in my view. I also doubt that more than two Wolves, at most, voted for Boro. One of them was Legate. If there was another (and I think it likely that there was), I suspect that it may well have been Rune, with a view to ensuring his own, and Legate's, safety. However, I do not discount the possibility that Aganzir and Diamond may have been voting here to save a fellow Wolf. Particularly Aganzir, as it was her vote that put Boro level with Legate.
Rune voters: Kath, Mac, Brinniel
The votes against Rune came rather late in the Day, and it was Kath that started them. Mac and Brinniel fanned the flames. Difficult to draw any conclusions without knowing whether or not Rune is a Wolf. If he is, then Kath and Mac are looking very innocent as these are unlikely Wolf-on-Wolf votes, given that Rune was under a fair amount of suspicion. Brinniel’s less so, as it came at a time when Rune was probably safe. If Rune is not a Wolf, then the analysis, to my mind, depends on Legate’s guilt, since neither were really directed towards saving him. Since, however, I consider Legate to be as guilty as hell, these votes (those of Mac and Kath) look innocent to me.
Others
The only other votes were Lommy's for Xyzzy, Anguirel’s for Brinniel and Rune’s for Mac (later retracted). Lommy's vote was besed primarily on Xyzzy's lack of participation, and so little can be concluded from that. Anguirel’s vote looks to be a safe one, since there seems to have been little appetite to vote for Brin, although he did plead for support in his case. Rune’s vote for Mac was a very safe one, but was subsequently retracted for a much less safe one, but one which might have been directed towards saving both himself and a fellow Wolf.
So, assuming that there were two Wolves among the Legate voters, then I consider one of Rune, Aganzir and Diamond to be a Wolf. Rune is currently the one that I am most suspicious of. I also consider that there may well be a Wolf among the non-voters, Xyzzy and Gil (given that Durelin has been proven innocent). Which leaves one more. My inclination is to look to Brinniel, for her ‘safe vote’ for Rune. I am not discounting the possibility of a Wolfish Anguirel but, given my view on Legate, I consider it unlikely.
Unless things change dramatically, I will be voting for the Legate of Tol Gaurhoth toDay.
