I went back and looked at the last-minute voting yesterday, and Brinn didn't say she X'ed with anyone (so I'm assuming she didn't), so the issue I'm having is why wouldn't a Brinnwolf jump on the Legate-wagon after his fate had already been sealed? I'm assuming that she saw Nerwen's vote, winty's vote, and my vote, which put Legate at four votes.

And especially not when there's a potential candidate I suspect more.

Could this be why? Brinn defends her vote here before anyone (besides Nerwen even mentions it in a negative context, and immediately tries to set up today's lynch ("a potential candidate I suspect more"). And here -

I think it's possible Brinn wouldn't have voted Legate because she expected precisely what Nerwen would say... but I'm not sure how likely it is.

Nerwen, you, and Legate were on the chopping block yesterday, so Nerwen didn't have a lot of choices if she wanted to save herself, but on the whole I tend to agree with this comment (also based on what I've read today so far).

My personal take on the winty-kill was that no one (but me ) suspected him.

Bah... I can't tell if this post is frustrated innocent Nerwen or "that move was so stupid I'd never have done it as a wolf please believe me" Nerwolf.

Yeah, and probably the best way to brush off that suspicion is to go wolf-on-wolf since that's probably less expected at this late stage of the game. By voting Legate at a critical point, you can make yourself look good then pin the suspicion on someone who didn't vote him, which is exactly what you're doing.

Alright, this post bothers me. It looks like Brinn has decided that Nerwen is 100% a wolf... and it's nigh-impossible to be 100% in this game. Plus it looks "grasping at straws"-ish... I'm not sure what the actual term is, but it's like "twisting the facts to fit the theory" kind of thing.

#988 sounds like frustrated innocent Nerwen again... but Sally already swayed me once this game with the same attitude.

This is actually a pretty good point.

I actually tend to agree with this as well - I remember thinking "I don't really like the tone of this post" the first time I read it.

Hi! Can I touch your horn?

Hah, Agan thinks what I do.

- Legate was reluctant to consider Agan a possible suspect because then he'd get paranoid and wouldn't get rid of it before she dies - echoes from innocent-Legate's thoughts or a crafty way of not suspecting a fellow?

I think the thing about Brinn is more likely at this point, but that's an interesting take on Agan, too.


Alright, a list from most to least suspicious (discounting myself, Lottie, and Lommy)

Brinniel
Nerwen
Aganzir - Shockingly enough, she's a little bit under my radar ("Impossible!") I need to change that.
