Now you know exactly how I feel about you two.

OK, I might as well start the voting. I've given my reasons why either one could be a wolf, and can't decide between them. However, Valier's behavior is fairly reminiscent of your typical Day One poster (could be a wolf trying to stay under the radar though), while Legate's behavior is still a bit of an issue.

I'd say a Legate-wolf is more dangerous than a Valier-wolf, though, so

Oh, and Valier, you're now in a position to cast the deciding vote. If you vote for Legate, he's dead due to having a 2/3 majority. If you vote for me, Legate will also vote for me to save his skin, so I'm dead then.

Wait a second. A third possibility occurred to me. If Legate is in fact a Wolf, he may be bold enough to vote for you and cause a triple lynch. Of course, he'd be dead, but it would also guarantee that both an innocent and a Gifted would die. With the wolves accounting for a third of us, they might be more willing to try suicidal tactics.

Triple lynches are not allowed. If we all vote for another, there will be a random choice of a lynch.

Wait a minute.

Concerning the rules, as far as I know, there are no double nor triple lynches on this Stage.

Second. If Menel is a wolf, he knows we are both innocent. The best for him would be to side with the one of us who does not vote for him, if one of us does, or to side with one of us (up to his choice) if we vote for each other.
Casting a first vote with the pressure is starting the movement, thus, in this case, he would be totally dropping the idea of swaying me to believe him but relying on Valier to side with him.

If Valier is a wolf, Menel is just an innocent who made a mistake. It will be the best for her now to side with him, seal my fate and finish this. However, a careful wolf will wait, because quickly sealing another's fate will place him in the line on Day 1 and later.

EDIT: x-ed with Menel

Wait. If you vote for me and Legate the Werewolf doesn't even vote, he'll kill two innocents without killing himself, three if we count the death overNight. Grrr, the possibilities...

EDIT: Cross-posted with Legate

Well I think leting the vote go to a randomizer is a cowardly way to end this battle. I don't like the idea of someone not voting either...
