I said I wouldn't vote Mith but now I'm not too sure. That vote of hers... I think it's quite foolish to pursue lynching Gil in a village like this where hordes of people die at night. However, as the Kill Gil(l) -argument can be reasonably defended (removing the uncertainities) I wouldn't be surprised one little bit if some of the wolves was/were campaigning quite actively for it to mislead the innocents (assuming of course Gil's innocent - which is matemathically and psychologically probable). This makes me wary of Mith and Fea, but Fea less so, as she's always weird and I can't read her. (Bad reasoning, I know. But Mith also feels less sincere.)

I agree with the person (can't remember who) who said that if there's an assassin on the village's side, s/he should probably kill Gil. Otherwise, I wouldn't concentrate on him too much.

I could vote Mith, as she is suspicious, but I'd maybe prefer lynching someone who is suspicious and quiet, so maybe Sixth or Isabell. I could also consider voting Shasta if I had clearer picture about him... my feeling this far is that he has been little suspicious and very normal for himself... if I was to vote him I would like to have a less vague picture about him.

Well, it seems we won't have the same consensus-problem as we did yesterDay...

(Izzie 1, Lommy 2, Gil 2, Sixth 1, Fea 1)

It's pretty spread out and not clear leaders yet. Only 6 have voted so far and assuming there is no Gil vote we still have 6 to go.

Edit Sixth just voted.

Actually come to think of it, if I were a wolf I would kill off Gil tonight for fun.

I'm at the moment torn between Isabell and Sixth. I'll check their posts and try to decide.

I am not really sure on who I should vote for. I'd rather vote for someone who already has a vote against them; rather than spreading the votes out even more. I am leaning towards Feanor mainly because of the human/confession thing.. but that doesn't seem to be anything really substantial to base a vote on.
I would prefer not to vote for Gil-Galad, as at the moment it is pretty much a coin toss as to his innocence. Sixth just brings out thoughts of over eagerness to me; suspicion isn't really the first thought in my head. I am obviously not going to vote for myself; and Thinlomien she seems to be more of a distractor than contributor.. so ehh I don't know.

That was it for me.

After a post like that (and a few similar posts before) Isabell can't pretend to be a simple newbie who votes the first person to pop into her mind and thus she seems highly suspicious.

Mith's vote got me worried... but I still think our best choices are the Menel-savers of the Day1 - and of them Isabell for the reasons I already pointed out.

But the points on Fea and Mith do look reasonable as well...

What to do?

That was a good point! I need to move Lommy up in my suspicions-table somewhat... although I think I have more baddies in my list than we actually have.

I might go for Isabell (seriously thinking I believe she's a wolf or a baddie of any sort). Or Mith (because of her very random -feeling vote and her security with going after Menel and the trial of me which felt like caused by evil intentions yesterDay) or Fea for being the self-professed wolf (she might actually do it!).

Or the Sixth with trying to save Menel or Shasta...

But who?
