In Finnish there's just one word for a male witch. :P

The way this is written is odd. It looks like formulated, something you have decided to say beforehand. And I wouldn't be so early wholly ruling out the possibility that the wolves know one another and/or the EW.

And I am not the one cheating on his girlfriend, or the one making out in public with someone you knew had a girlfriend.

Ah but I have no worries about him. I know what he was doing for the most part of last night. ...At least I suppose it was him and not Gwath. They look so same I can't always tell.

I often do the same, ie try to find wolves based on how they say things, but I don't really think saying that makes Brinn more suspicious. Mainly because I think so, too.

How come you're so sure?
This looks awfully much like a Brinn-wolf who doesn't know her fellows and states the fact as her opinion as she's afraid she might slip it later.

And if I say "Nerwen is the good wizard and the gifteds are Nilp, Kath and Eönwë!" it will give the EW ideas and she will go after them?
Quite honestly, I assume the wizards have played enough so that they have at least some kind of ideas about what the players are like.

The only suspicious thing I can see about Cailín's list is that making it is an easy way to gain allies by being nice to people. Like, I have never played with her before yet she called me clever - therefore she must be innocent too, since she sees I'm making sense!

I think it looked like an example of what wolf talk would be like, but that "the rest of us" leaves me baffled.
But I wouldn't count it as an argument neither for nor against Volo yet.

Innocent
morm. He makes sense and looks innocent.
Isabell. I agree with her and she looks honest.

Guilty
Ka, because she's always evil.
phantom. In truth he's the EW, and is just bluffing. Ok, well, he looks like he has deliberately chosen the way he plays, and to choose that makes people look unnatural and insincere.
I don't know about sally, but she makes me feel uneasy. Usually she's crazier and somehow less careful.
I don't like Gwath either. The way he says we should be looking for the EW rather than wolves is suspicious. There are others who have said quite the same, but Gwath just makes it look like he were a wolf and trying to distract attention away from himself.

And if an innocent is lynched today and the EW curses a new wolf next night, the wolves will get two kills, and that's certainly what they are aiming at. So wolves shouldn't be looked for?
Brinniel. This is a gut feeling, but she looks a bit too dishonest and a bit too careful.
