My are you going to look foolish if I get lynched.

And you are copying my style. Almost word for word, if I may say.

If I'm wrong, then yes I will look quite foolish. However, I don't have a problem with this either. At least I'll have done something that I know is independent and I've not been dragged about like a fish on a line. However, if that is the case you are also going to look very foolish for having come down so hard on me on DAY TWO, because as will be seen in the end, I am innocent.

No doubt we will all have a good laugh about this when we are finished.

However, as of this moment, I don't think I will look foolish.

EDIT:
Estel-I wouldn't count the Shelob vote before it is actually cast. There is no real knowing how she's going to go.

(It depends on what her marching orders are.

)

EDIT TO THE EDIT:
I believe the phantom has 3 votes against him. Zali, Fordim, and mormegil.

Firefoot · 06-08-2005, 07:16 AM

TORE - phantom actually has 3 votes - Azaelia, Fordim, and mormegil.

And I am going to place my vote for ++PHANTOM. I have read the posts since I went to bed last night and do not find my mind changed much in that I still find phantom more suspicious than SpM. I don't really have time to respond in more length, but I doubt anyone really expected me to vote otherwise anyway.

I will say that I am intrigued by Kuru's very vocal defense of phantom. He seems more willing to be lynched himself than allow phantom to be lynched. I will reserve thoughts on this until later, when I have more time to really analyse the arguments.

So that makes the vote:
phantom - 4
SpM - 5

Kuruharan · 06-08-2005, 07:17 AM

Oh yes, then there is the other werewolf Firefoot who will vote for the phantom.

I was forgetting about her (even though I probably have less excuse for that than others).

If you'd only voted for Saucepan Man you wouldn't be in this spot.

mormegil · 06-08-2005, 07:50 AM

My My it's rather political isn't it right now. Can anyone else just see Kuru standing at the voting booth yelling at would be voters. Seems to be using intimidation now rather than logic. You did use logic before but now with the vehement yelling I think you are trying to scare people into the vote.

Fordim Hedgethistle · 06-08-2005, 07:18 AM

Hmmmm...

Saucy will vote for the phantom making it 5 to 4...

So it will be up to Firefoot and Shelob to decide this one...

I think that no matter what happens today we are going to learn a lot of interesting things about all of the abovementioned people.

Edit: cross-posted with Firefoot; so as soon as Saucy casts his vote, it will leave Shelob in the driver's seat -- now, if she casts her vote elsewhere, we could have a tie and be rid of the both of them right away: of course, woe betide us if they are both innocent!!

The Only Real Estel · 06-08-2005, 07:20 AM

It looks like it will be 5-5 with Shelob to vote...how will she vote?

EDIT: Not wanting to post after Eomer's post (again anyway), I'm posting my thoughts on the outcome of the vote as an edit. I am somewhat suprised that Shelob has voted the way that she has, especially given that she voted for Saucepan Man last DAY. I'm beginning to wonder if there isn't something to Kuru's 'marching orders' comment. I know phantom has drawn attention to himself this round, but I don't think he's drawn enough to change an opinion that hopefully was made with some conviction. If Shelob voted for Sauce last time I would expect her to follow through with it this time...unless she isn't following through because Sauce would be gone if she voted for him this time.

There's a good chance that phantom is guilty, but if he is innocent & we've let a wolf off the hook (or noose, however you like) again then we've got a major problem on our hands.
