On Lottie
#22 - First real post, where
Lottie comes out as fairly anti-tie as regards the Day 1 lynch.
#28 - Warns against thinking a false Seer-reveal by the wolves is impossible, and also warns against trusting the dead thread implicitly. This second point isn't one I disagree with, necessarily, because everything she mentions
is possible -

- but I'm not certain it's as dire a possibility. If we set up a complicated system for the dead to tell us if X or Y is innocent or wolvish, then it becomes more of an issue, but I'm not sure that who receives the dead thread vote is going to be... as big a deal, I guess is what I'm trying to say. It just came off as oddly doom-and-gloom for my tastes. I suppose if I were looking at it through wolf-colored glasses then it
could be a
Lottiewolf laying the groundwork to discredit the information coming from the dead thread because she knows it's going to be primarily innocent-based, but that's a bit of a reach.
#48 - Some math that's slightly in favor of lynching on Day 1 (or, rather, against
not lynching Day 1 for reasons of having the wolves make the first move.)
#54 - More about not wanting to tie the vote, especially before the Dead thread becomes active. Also mentions that not giving the dead the power to dictate the lynch, but rather setting up a system through which they can communicate information to us, is probably the best solution. There's really nothing I disagree with here.
#196 - Most suspicious of
Nog for being "conciliatory". This is really her first big suspicion of the day, and while I myself voted
Nog I can't really wrap my head around this reasoning -

Some help understanding this would be appreciated, because the way I read it I don't really find it that suspicious.
#202 - Would like to vote for
Nog if there's a chance he'll be lynched, but is willing to vote
Agan to ensure a lynch. I don't really find this that bad; I'd probably have done the same (sorry,
Agan!
)
#205 - Cautions
Eomer against dismissing someone just because they're loud on the first day.
#220 - Votes
Nog. It's clear now that she did cross with
Phantom, so at the time it's assumed she was placing the second vote on
Nog. It's worth noting that there was indeed a big upswing in support for voting
Nog at this time;
Eomer,
Phantom,
Sally, and myself had mentioned possibly voting for him at this point.
Next day...
#250 - Defends
Sally against
Morm, regarding
Sally's theory on a
Runewolf being picked off last night. On rereading, it does seem a bit jumpy of
Morm to come out so strongly against
Sally there. I may have to look at him next, time permitting. Regarding
Lottie herself, she says she's suspicious of
Morm here. Nothing really jumps out at me.
#260 - Speculates that it's not
morm himself that's implicated by
Rune being killed, but rather possibly
Greenie or
Form. Links
Rune and
morm by way of playstyle during the first day, which is an interesting connection to make; I'm not yet how relevant it is, but it's certainly one perspective.
#293 - This point -

- is a pretty good one, in my opinion, although I'm always a bit iffy about hard and fast rules about what wolves will and will not do in a given situation if one is not secretly a wolf themselves (
). However, I tend to agree with what she says here. She also thinks here that
Phantom biting the bullet last night means that it's likely neither wolfpack had a solid lead on a gifted last night; honestly I dunno if that's the case. That bit is an awful lot of speculation.
This bit, though -

- strikes me as a bit hypocritical, though. Weren't you just talking in rather certain terms about why the wolves would make any particular kill? I can't decide if
Lottie actually, innocently suspects
Morm for this or if she's reaching for any reason to for its own sake.
#296 - Votes
morm.
Thoughts:
Throughout most of this readthrough I was thinking
Lottie looked pretty innocent. It wasn't until I got down to the end where I noticed a discrepancy and began to second-guess myself where she's concerned. However, I feel uncomfortable voting for her since she's already said she likely won't be back today, and I could use some clarification on one or two things she's said, so I won't necessarily be voting for her today.
Now to catch up on what's happened while I was typing that...
