You missed Ang for Fea, phantom...

Kath accused me of switching from joking to serious. She's slightly mistaken; I switched from serious to joking. Different matter entirely! The question is, dear damosel, do you trust me to wing my way back to seriousness again, as I've said I would?

I must say Kath looks rather as if she's jumping on and exploiting Nogrod's stated suspicions of me, in a similar way as Eomer, the first wolf, jumped on my stated suspicions of Kath. However, as I'm on the receiving end of her vote my mind can't exactly remain unclouded.

the phantom and Kath, then, are my main suspicions, but I won't vote for the phantom as it would encourage a Sauce-tp race, and I won't vote for Kath as that would be naught but squalid self-defence.

Lynch me if you like; in a funny way it would prove the effectiveness of my schemes. I will die, if I am to die, railing against the Dark Lady, for though in sooth I do love her I exhort that we raise up the standard of her destruction!

Oh, and I've discovered the true identity of the Dark Lady. This Fea/Laura/Eva Green stuff is a mask...she's actually called Vesper Lynd.

All right. Time for a new List of Doom.

INNOCENT
the phantom

PROBABLY INNOCENT
SPM
Mith

HERE BE WOLVES (wolf, actually)
Ang
Di
Kath
Nogrod

So there it is. I won't be voting for SPM or Mith except to save my life. The only choices I am allowing myself are the last four. But which should I choose???

The way Ang is acting... it looks so familiar... I know I've seen him like this before.

I just can't recall in which village it was. Help me out, Ang. Where am I remembering this routine from? You've been in too many games.

It's hard to judge oneself, but perhaps you should have a look at WWX...the real link being that I enjoyed myself tremendously both there and here, though here I'm having a good deal more success...

I did. I saw a bit of what I was looking for there where you were a Ranger, but also in WW I where you were a wolf.

But really, I'm sort of buying into your carefree attitude. I remember you saying something earlier about how Fea will just kill us all anyway, and your behavior strikes me as someone who has no fear.

Hmm.... this is tough....

All right. I've decided that I don't want to vote for you today, anyway. If you're a WW you're doing well and you're being entertaining, and so I wouldn't mind letting you stick around till tomorrow to see what you would do once you become more serious.

So that leaves me with
Di
Kath
Nogrod

(it seems the absent tactic is a good one, Kath survived yesterday and Di isn't getting attention today)

Oh, and nice pic, Ang. She's not bad, but that obviously isn't Fea. L's prettier.

You know that won't help you win, right?

Giving reasons for one's vote from out of thin air is something also an innocent might do when the sleep is pressing on but having an overall tactics of not making anyone to feel bad about you is definitively more wolvish.

This is a case in point indeed. As I look at it again I can see what you mean. But I think the most important question is not whether you may wing back to being serious again but whether Kath made a bogus suspicion... Your point about Eomer looks reasonable.

tp is just over my resources toDay but I will come back to him toMorrow if I'm still around. Ang I might vote, but I think I will have to revaluate Kath again before it.
