The wolves did not start out this game knowing each other. They have the opportunity to find their fellows, which means we could still be dealing with two individual wolves or one pair.

As I said to Nerwen a few posts ago, I believe Skip could have been a good choice for a wolf dream (especially for a newer wolf). Assuming that assumption is correct and one of the wolves knew Skip was both guilty and idle, it would be in their interest to terminate Skip).

We’ve spoken of wolves talking in code, attempting to plot Night kills or other schemes using hints that they would hope the rest of the village would not find. As is always the case with WW, codes can come in the most obvious (votes) of places or the most obscure (veiled references or, as is my preference, links). Those who have talked the most about the wolf codes have the best chance of concealing said codes within their messages. For instance....

I don't know if I suspect Nog, until now I've been just very happy that he's around, but if other people are starting to wake up I'll give him more consideration. I agree with Greenie about him jumping on Shasta, and I'm not sure whether I like his approach towards myself. I'll do some re-reading in a bit and see if that leads to something.

Pom actually states here that she hoped Nog was a wolf and followed his plans. Others picking up on the same plan, etc. At first I thought I was being paranoid about this, but frell, this seems not only opportunistic, but also a little too calculated and as if Pom’s reaching out for fellows.


This is a side note, but it’s something I want to consider for later.

What I’d like to know is why Greenie says I’m talking about the subject too much yet continues to address the topic herself. She then votes me for discussing said issue (and other reasons even she admits are flimsy, though in this game, I can understand the lack of true “evidence” against someone). It’s like she’s trying too hard to find something wrong with me. Why? You’re not the seer, so you’re not dropping hints that I’m a wolf (because I’m not, see, so if you were, you’d be lying). Why not just let the subject drop rather than pressing it even more?


Back to Pomegranate, she (right?) goes from possibly suspecting Nog to jumping on board his “lynch absentee Skip” plan. It's possible, given the above statements, that Pom thought Nog was trying to hint to his other packmate to kill Skip.

I definitely don't want to get rid of Nog, Coppermirror or Nerwen, even though I'm not by far believing them innocent - they have at least been vocal, I've enjoyed having some company. And I'm not comfortable lynching anyone of the newly appeared people, because I haven't had time to concentrate in what they have said. And this seems reasonable now that I at least feel like I'll have some talk and some actions to analyse, come tomorrow.

Good night.

Scroll up and read what I said again. Before, I thought Nog could have been going for that idea, but he clearly was not a wolf. Pom, however, easily could be, and this would be the perfect opportunity for Pom to sidle up to Nog, size him up, and see if he’s an ally, all while killing Skip. It would be perfect for Pom and whoever the other wolf may be (which sadly I don’t have time to math out right now, but for reasons I can’t explain, my top two picks are Greenie and Boro).

Oh, and by the way....

I wish I’d had more time to explain this better, but Pom has been opportunistic, changing sides as suits and going with the plan that very clearly benefited the wolves. When Nog said Pom seemed to be overdoing it, Nog died. I....I don’t have any better ideas toDay. I think it’s got to be....
