um i got work today(2:30-6), and right after that, i go to buy a suit. homecoming, that everlasting bane of hard-earned cash. so if i vote it will have to be at 2:00-15. so...

for what it's worth, im a bit leary of teh phantom. it just seems that everyone takes him at his word to easilly. as soon as he mentions his thoughts on perky's dream (zali), alot of people start agreeing. (and i could see how that would be a pretty important bit of info) i guess the logic behind makes sense, but still...
i just think that we shouldn't blindly follow until we have quite concrete evidence for his benefit. that goes for anyone, i guess. (i am masterful at stateing obviousness! )

yeah other than that, i don't konw what to think...

I'm beginning to think Anguirel and Márcolië Lamen require watching. The way they were acting seems a little...odd.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who has noticed this.

Somebody has to do it.

Where has Spawn gone off to? I've been waiting for her insightful post for some time now.

I agree but I doubt that both of them are wolves. It would have been too risky for Wolf-Márcolië to vote for Wolf-Anguirel yesterday.

spawn-> Glirdan
Celuien-> Cailín
Kitanna-> Glirdan
Lalaith-> Perky Ent
Boromir-> Gil-Galad
Cailín-> Anguirel
Márcolië-> Anguirel
Kuruharan-> Gil-Galad
Wayne-> Glirdan
the phantom-> Cailín
Eonwe-> Cailín

It would have been possible if they knew that Wolf-Wayne would have broken a possible tie but it's still too risky.

RIght now my suspicions lie with Kuru and Phantom. I will check back latter, but will pobably vote for Kuru, just because i think it is the best bet.

Kuru in 129

it is really more helpful to have votes. And don't worry about getting it wrong...life is an exercise in making a fool of yourself.
very well...i prolly won't have too much trouble with that

You said you have work so I doubt you'll be back on to answer this, but why? What reason can you give for voting for Kuru? In one of your posts you seemed far more suspcious of the phantom. At the beginning of the day you mentioned some sort of Boromir/Kuru alliance, but you never returned to it. In fact you never truly elaborated on it. You kind of just mentioned it in passing and asked us to reread their posts without letting us in on your own findings.

If by some strange chance you are able to repsond to this before day is out I'd like to hear your reasoning behind the vote.

*Refreshed while searching thread before completing post - request for explanation becomes a cross post with Kitanna*

Eonwe - I'd like to put in a request for you to explain your vote for Kuru, hoping you'll see this before you leave. If it comes too late, I'd like to hear more tomorrow. I searched but couldn't find anything where you stated your reasons for suspicion. All I saw was your post asking for opinions on Boromir and Kuru, plus one where you seemed to suspect the phantom.

Either Gil-Galad or Kitanna may be guilty, but I doubt both are. At this moment I am also rather suspicious of Kitanna.
So, he suspects a fellow wolf to make himself look innocent while turning his attention to Kitanna who isn't guilty in this scenario.

I for one won't vote for Kuru today without very good reasons. However, I don't have much time left and I'd really appreciate some active discussion before I have to leave.
