There are some curious harmonies to the posts of Lalaith that I find suspicious.

Food for thought.

It would be a very nice wolf strategy to put one of them on a pedestal like that and then keep clapping him on the back like "look at this innocent guy isn't he marvelous". So anyone who gives Legate a free pass gets a massive side eye from this direction.
Fair enough.

Legate is likely innocent (and at this point in the game, pretty much has to be treated as one) because he was the first to publically advocate the risky and controversial plan of Not Lynching. He stuck to his guns on this point and the plan is/was a tactically and strategically sound one given the parameters of this game. If you want further explanation of why this is so, please go back and review our posts on the subject as I really don’t want to rehash the whole thing here.

Now, it is possible that this is all a cunning plot on his part, but if it is he deliberately set himself a steep challenge by making the game much harder on himself on a fundamental level so if he pulls it off, good on him.

But I don’t think that is at all likely and we can’t behave like it is.

I'm also growing concerned that the ordos are going to end up essentially forfeiting the game through modfiring which would be a very disappointing outcome on an intriguing and as far as I know fairly unique set-up for a game.

EDIT: Xed with Shasta
