Tol-in-Gaurhoth L: Battle of the Fandoms

[Boromir88]

So what you have to decide is being right enough evidence to kill me.

I think not.~McCaber

It's not just the 3 votes buddy, it's that almost statement you made (prior to me bringing this up) was right - about Gwath, and about Nogrod, and did say you thought I was innocent until yesterday. Now, you did say on Day 1 that Brinn seemed off, and there was a period you were unsure about me, but that's it.

Yes folks, I was very right the first 3 Days. I was trying to be right to try to be killed by the wolfpack instead of the Seer.

With that impressive voting record why was it that Brinn and Rikae were killed. Kath was killed because she simply left no trail to follow. But, Brinn and Rikae were more active members, who did leave a trail (and both incriminated sally), thus their deaths can only mean the wolves thought they were getting the seer.

The fact that Brinn gets killed after voting for sally. Rikae gets killed after voting for sally, and sally is found to be a wolf, can't be coincidence. Rikae's list of "creepies" after excluding herself (innocent), Nogrod (innocent), sally (wolf), were Izzy and you, McCaber. The question is which one of you fear you'd be a seer dream next?

See, and that's still not the whole argument. Your votes, while they be for wolves (the first 3 days) are safe.

Day 1, you're the first vote for CoD, and you vote before any of the real suspicion grows against him. There was no reason to believe CoD was going to be lynched until the very last minutes. Exactly as Nerwen said, it's a safe place for a wolf-on-wolf vote. You obviously wouldn't be expecting CoD a bandwagon lynching against a wolf on Day 1, and if/when CoD is proven to be a wolf, you can go back to that Day 1 vote.

Your Day 2 vote is also safe. While you did consistently go after sally that day, it was another safe vote to make for a wolf. Gwath and Nogrod were the focus, very fewb people were talking about sally. I brought up at the beginning her strange reaction to CoD, Rikae said she thought the exact opposite and that was pretty much it about sally for the rest of the day. Nerwen, Lal, and myself got into it a little bit, Mac's taken up Fea's desire to lynch me, but he's less trigger happy. The focus was off sally, another safe vote, and as far as Day 2 goes a way to stay out of the action (between Gwath/Nogrod and Nerwen/Lal/Mac/me). The other person who did bring up more suspicion against sally, ended up dead during the night.

Day 3, this I admit is a little less safe, and you did continue to pursue sally. But again a safe, early vote for sally. Even though you put her into the lead (2nd vote for sally). There still a lot of people left to vote, anything could happen, and with all the attention Lal and I had been attracting for 2 days, it was another good place for a wolf-on-wolf vote. If sally doesn't end up getting lynched great, if she does you look extremely innocent.

The fact that you continued to pursue sally, may have very well convinced me that you are indeed innocent if not for the fact that your first post the next day you state:

So are we finally clear that Mac and Iare innocent? Good.

Now that we're all on the same page,

You're quick to want to put to rest any possibility that you (or Mac) are wolves, because of your voting record. That assumption automatically rings alarms, because you're not proven innocent until the seer says you're proven innocent. Yet, you want to quickly put the discussion to rest. And you set your sights on the 5 unknown, suspicious people, directing everyone's attention to them. Marking that we should be able to kill/exonerate them without much more difficulty.

Now to answer Nogrod's question, that would the wolf team leave wolf McCaber in this situation. Where obviously the last wolf has exteme odds to overcome. I don't know that. But I do know 2 wolves have been lynched in the first 2-days before, and a lone wolf has survived to the end. I do know that McCaber would not have likely been a seer dream, especially with his early impressive voting record. I do know thus that with McCaber's voting record people could easily feel safe about him, and thus he could go slip into the background. I do know that we could have gone several days lynching the assumed 5 "unknowns" (when really Mac and McCaber are both unknown too), and then we might start seeing our big advantage disappear.

I do know we can't take an innocent for granted, we can't just lynch someone on the grounds of "wanting to know for sure," if Fea would get her way I'd have an early exit every time. No matter the advantage, each and every day we have to go into it trying to nab a wolf.

We have a good group of known innocent right now, and with the ranger still we may keep this group for a few days yet. I'm willing to bet the farm on this one. I ask you continue to trust me. If it turns out I'm wrong about McCaber, I'll let you decide what to do with me, if that means lynching me, so be it, than Fea will get her wish.
