[Nogrod]

Took a pause from reading the eassys... and I'm getting a bit worried.

When everything depends on us getting the right one toDay - and when we should actually look at everyone with all suspicion we can find - there's this odd comradery going on between Lommy and Rikae.

And if either of you is innocent please remember that the wolves like to be nice to you at this kind of situations, the innocents are those desperate to get it right.

My main worry is Lommy as she has been the one doing the buddying up more but I'm not too confident with Rikae either anymore as she's not her sharp self who'd raise her eyebrows on Lommy but seems like easily taking the feel-good thing...

Look fex. just this

Please go back to the last game and look how Rikae's feelings "shone through" making almost half of the village to believe her emotional posts even if we had almost clear Seer-thing on her... So what are you talking here Lommy? This clearly is unnecessary and wrong. Why would an innocent talk such nonsense as we all know after the last game what Rikae is capable of with showing a feeling? If not to try to bring forwards the feel-good factor? And no innocent can't afford that toDay even if to save one's own neck from suspicion.

Maybe Mac was right all along and I'm much worse in looking my own daughter than I think. I mean Lommy has felt innocent all the game to me and I have shut my ears from people pointing at her suspiciousness as I've gotten innocent vibes from her but then toDay she starts to act like a wolf ready to nail this thing down by trying to ally herself with Rikae against me.

And then there was this:

It will make me feel bad even though I suspect him as well.

This kind of discussions should be OOC indeed but as it has been raised and it has made me suspect Lommy I need to talk this out anyway: Lommy knows perfectly well that I never visited the computer after hearing Greenie's lament about not being able to take part toDay too much (we were eating dinner a few hours before the deadline). So suspecting me of being the one killing Greenie at Night because I heard her schedual is just plain wrong and she knows it. The question then arises why did she wish to make a point of it... To try and lay further suspicion on someone she knows is innocent perhaps? Where she just too happy to continue her well-begun wolfy-attack on me so that she just forgot this particular case was impossible???

"And please, don't use this all against Lommy because I have the feeling someone will do so. It will make me feel bad even though I suspect her as well."


But another thing that bothers me a bit more generally is the seeming consensus that the wolves are "sporty" and they should be found among people who could fit the description. I mean I could see it as well the other way around where a bunch of less loud wolves would leave the loudmouths alive just to tear each other apart while they would just sit back and relax. It might be though that Lommy and Rikae indeed are the wolves here. It's perfectly possible. But what I don't like is the premature consensus. We should look more closely who were all too happy to further that idea and whom it would serve as a common opinion here ie. who have contributed to that idea which leaves them safe from suspicion?

It's also interesting that Volo also seems to make arguments that presuppose a logic of the wolves and how the possible break down in them makes certain people suspicious while Lommy also counts heavily on a presupposed "wolf-logic" (which intrestingly fits her as well). So those two just happened to think about our wolves as following a pattern and using that idea to cast their suspicions to convenient directions? Or was this something they made a deal to try toDay - with Lommy trying to pre-empt any suspicions on her by kind of admitting the patterns she discusses fit her as well but surely she isn't a wolf as she talks about it so openly?


Allright. We can't afford retaliation toDay and I must stay cool even if it takes some lip-biting at the moment. It only takes two wrong votes and we're done.


And just a passing observation...

It's interesting how busy pointing left and right both Volo and Menel are toDay. Now as the wolves are so near the victory they have also stepped their gear. A hasty wolf could act just like that: "so near, so near, let's give it the final push..." And with no offence I'd say they both could be "hasty wolves" at this kind of situation - not the least because they would have played an extraordinary cunning game and are anxious to get to the spoils. And furthering the idea of "sporty" wolves would fit them very nicely toDay...
