Valesse has just left Hobbiton.
It might be a little ex post facto but Anguirel noticed something I did (about not doing...) before making my vote yesterday. This may serve to get me accused, but its tricksy and disturbing.

In all honesty I voted for Eonwe because of her use of the word "winnow" the very post after I had mentioned it. Mind I don't figure winnow to be a very common word, afterall, and her chosen usage seemed a bit biting. In all it made me feel uncomfortable as if she were trying to frame me for wolvery, something I've seen before in games of this kind.

I had planned to vote for her at that point be decided to watch for anyone else to rouse my suspicions more. Obviously I ended up being wrong.

I'll admit it doesn't sound too innocent of a reason, but there it is. Now what bothers me is Shelob has also used "stones... slung" which was a colloquialism I rewarded for alitteration. Again... this really really bothers me because I see no reason for the original version NOT to be used. I'm paranoid. Very paranoid, but one has to be in these dark times.

Then again... I could be just so smegging awesome everyone wants to sound like me.

Wary as I am, I was wrong last time and for that feel ghastly irresponsible in my voting practice. There are several suspicious people about saying very suspicious things. When I get back from practicing with Wayne (I want this whole mess cleaned up..!) (--I'll be in classes--) I will see what hurt I have just now done to myself, and cast my vote and suspicions.
