Don't forget gifteds trying to look like cobblers and/or wolves. I suppose that's what did for Gwath... However, even if we end up getting the assassin by accident, we've still got the wolves to kill cobblers for us.

I did like the latest narration:

Oh, not again...

[Nerwen]

A Little Green's last words.

Day 4.

#454. Explains why she hadn't posted earlier. Says the Nog-Dury affair is weird. Says she would rather think about possible wolves, one of whom she is sure is keeping a low profile Says most of the votes on the previous Day could have been evil.

#456. Makes a list:

The villagers.

Shasta - I still don't have a read on him. His theories do seem quite far-fetched but I don't know whether it's to be read as wolvery or cobblery or innocence.
Eönwë - I think he might well be an under-the-radar wolf. Then again, I can't be sure of him since I remember very little of what he has said. I should have a look at him and will if I have the time.
Nerwen - I still categorise her as innocentish because she seems as much.
Kath - The consensus seems to be that she's a cobbler. I think she isn't. I think the cobbler assassin might have checked her the night people expected him/her to take Form. Or am I mixing the days up? I'm really too lazy and tired to check...
Dury - Feels innocent, though not as much as before. She might be a cobbler, but I don't think she is a wolf.
Brinn - Under my reindeer, my first impression is a vague "she usually makes sense". Should have a look on her, though..
Nog - He could be anything. No idea.
Greenie - Me!! (Woo hoo.) I'm no wolf. Nor a cobbler, for that matter. Definitely not.
the phantom - YesterDay I was pretty sure he was just a bored innocent. ToDay I have the feeling that he might well be a wolf...
Lommy - I never suspect her. Never. My gut says once again that she is innocent but maybe I should check her. Gah. Too lazy.

So who, then, could be the wolves? Eönwë and phantom? Or maybe cuddly little Lommy? Brinn? Nog? Shasta? I'm too confused. Don't know...

#463. Says Phantom-Shasta debate is silly. Says Shasta's reasoning is weird, but so is the phantom's.

#461. Says she's too tried to make an analysis.

#470. Says we shouldn't concentrate on Nogrod and Durelin so much. Thinks Brinn's last post (#468, making points against Durelin) sounds a bit wolvish.

#474. Says Nogrod's last post sounded "very wolvish". (#471, where he says he has "a bad feeling" that the people who had already voted against him– Durelin and Kath– were evil.)

#475. Votes Shasta!! Explains the surprise vote as being because Shasta is "under the radar" (????) That's such a strange comment I can't understand how none of us picked it up. (Ah, 20-20 hindsight!)

Comments: tries hard to play down both the phantom-Shasta brawl, and the Nogrod-Durelin one, and looks for an alternative lynching candidate. Clearly, she thought she had allies among the combatants. It looks as if Durelin was her guess for the most likely wolf/cobbler and Shasta the least... although just before voting she thought it was Nogrod... I suppose she looked at the case she'd made against him, realised she might be right, and panicked.

She didn't go after anyone strongly or consistantly, so I think it's unlikely she was killed for being dangerous, or to frame anyone.

EDIT: fixed bolding.

[Nerwen]

No-one around?

Well, I have to vote early, so–

++SHASTA.

He's more likely a cobbler than a wolf, but still...

I don't think Shasta would take to that...

Alright, I'm tired and grumpy and my roommate's incessant humming is driving me crazy and I have to leave for class in about an hour. Sooooo, no more apologizing and probably no inspired arguments from me.

I'm getting rather fed up with these sorts of comments from Nerwen...

I actually am finding Nerwen and Brinniel the most suspicious right now because they seem the least caught up in the insanity, which could be from having a better idea what's going on and having a particular purpose.

Lommy could fit that, too, but for some reason I just can't feel like she's evil. Yergh.

Maybe I should just vote for Shasta...but he amuses me...

I don't know why I'm not suspicious of Kath anymore. Don't know why I'm not suspicious of the phantom. And Eonwe's just... *shrug*

Yep, best I got. Oh well. Though I'm feeling more my usual self now - was feeling more emotionally connected with the game than usual for a bit there.

[Durelin]

++Brinniel

She just seems to have been in such a good position all game, voting-wise and everything... *shrugs* Really need to run.

Gah, don't say that Brin. It makes me feel like you're trying to get me to run ahead and vote Shasta, because if I don't then of course we are the two WWs doing a bold ploy. It's sort of similar to something I did back in the day to Ang- goading him into his vote.

Sorry, I know I probably shouldn't suspect you for it, but I'm starting to get paranoid. I figure the reason why I'm alive is because the WWs think I'll be useful, which makes me rather ticked. So I feel I should suspect the people I haven't been suspecting. Or perhaps that is what they're counting on and so I should continue on as I have. Or perhaps they just feel I'm lynchable. Gah!

You mean like the other day "Let's try and lynch a baddie" or something like that? Yeah, I know what you mean. Does anyone know if Nerwen regularly makes comments like that?

See, and that is why I'm so reluctant to vote for him. If he turns out to be the Cobbler and I vote to lynch him, then guess what- he wins! He got what he wanted.

Reread - comments about previous Days

- phantom -

Oh, who am I kidding? I'm just here for adventure and loot.

A cobbler hint?

- Durelin -

Don't trust me to discern the good from the bad, I'm only used to working with really dead people and their stuff.

A cobbler hint?

- Eönwë has been concentrating at the number of posts from the very beginning. I find that weird. In truth, I find it c-o-b-b-l-e-r-i-s-h, fo a change. * at self*

- Eönwë's flip-flopping about the Kitanna-lynch looks like indecisive wolvishness...

- Shasta looks suspicious to me because he was so happy to lynch Kit. I still think it was a very stupid and a very suspicious idea.

- The way tp muses about Groin not getting killed on Night2 sounds innocent.

- Something funny in Nerwen's and tp's exchanges on Day2, they look slightly fellowish.

- I don't know what to make of Eönwë's ubiquitous vote tables. They make me feel he's trying to look more helpful than he actually is, which is slightly eyebrow-raising...

- Durelin looks pretty innocent, after all. Or maybe she's a cobbler. But she doesn't look very wolvish...

- Brinn could really be anything. Anything. *sigh*

- Phantom looks rather innocent because of #295. Would he make up an imaginary ploy he pretends to believe in? It's a bit too complicated, but one has to remember it's tp who's in question now...

- I'm wondering if tp has realised he sometimes annoys people with his arrogance and has thus lessened it a little (wouldn't be that characteristic of him, would it?), or whether it's indeed so that he has been trying to be nice to people because he's a wolf...? Argh. He's smoothness/niceness does make me suspect him.

- Kath looks cobblerish, could be an under-the-radar wolf but feels occasionally really sincere.

- Eönwë's statements like:

And by the way, phantom, just so you know- I don't suspect you, it was just an idea.

make me raise my eyebrows. Looks like a newbieish wolf.

- Nerwen sounds sincere enough.

- Somehow, Kath's vote for Nogrod yesterDay looks quite fishy, or I get a fishy feeling of it.


That's it, sorry for the messiness but I was taking notes as I read and can't think of a smart way of rearranging it... In total:

innocentish
Durelin
Nerwen

in the middle
Kath
Brinniel

suspicious-ish
Shasta
the phantom
Eönwë


BUT. I could really vote anyone. I don't know, I just have the feeling that I need some extra evidence before I can vote, and I'm waiting for it. Because I'm really actually suspecting everyone in a way or another. (I'm not sure if the reread was a good idea... )
