Before everyone goes in and votes Shasta, can I just say the way he's been popping out of nowhere to vote reminds me of an innocent Elf-Warrior. And these one-liners he's been making don't sound wolfish to me...cobblerish maybe, but I don't think he's a wolf.

Urgh, I also have to mention I meant to return much much earlier...silly me...

I'm still a bit clueless on who to vote for, so let me think...

I haven't got the time to comment on everything I'd like to (I'll do that toMorrow if I'm still alive) and me, Greenie and Nog we're all sharing a computer and none of us has voted, so...

I could vote Shasta, Form or Nog, or even maybe Fea. (She's been acting weirdly.) I've started having second thoughts about Durelin. She might not be a cobbler after all. And of course I could vote Nerwen just for that dreadful suggestion...

I can't follow Nilp's logic.

The Nogrod-phantom row looks interesting... makes me think they're not both innocent. And even though I suspect Nog a bit more than tp, this row actually makes me a little hesitant of lynching him. I'd rather see how this develops.

But while I think lynching her was stupid, what I meant by you not being silly is that you're not throwing total joke ideas or loads of silly suggestions and suspicions around.

I'll be quickly back to vote but that's all you can expect of me toDay... gotta let Greenie and Noggie write...

Aww. There I was siding with you against phantom, too. Where's the love?

Proof that phantom is banking on his entertainment value in order not to be lynched!

Edit: When accusing, one must always put the quote in the actual post. Duh.

It's a little late to discuss that Shasta!

Here's the deal.

Gwath might be an Ordo. He might be a baddie.

I don't think he's a gifted.

He's tied with me for the lead.

That's definitely where I'm leaning.

++Durelin

She was on my list of possible wolves, and I still think she could be. Something about her doesn't feel right...a bit sneaky. And she's always someone I'm wary of because she can be quite the sneaky wolf. I would further elaborate if I had time...

EDIT: X-ed since post 270

Ah thanks Lommy you really were quick.

I don't have much time (I'll promise to be very much more active toMorrow), but I think I'll go for

++ Gwath

because he still seems to tiptoe around a trifle too much and behaves fishy and under-the-reindeer at the same, and since I don't want to make a throwaway-vote, I might as well go for him.


EDIT: x-ed with a lot
