Ah well, Shasta did the expected thing.

If we both turn out to be Ordos then we were played like violins. Though I suspect him of Cobblery much more than being an Ordo. Wolf- I suppose it's possible. I'm not familiar enough with him to know how bold he is.

And where is Eonwe? Surely the vote table isn't going to be all we hear from him today.

Yeah... and I would kind of like to vote him, because currently I really feel he could be a sly newbie wolf... But I wouldn't really like to vote him if he doesn't post anything else and besides, the vote is rather spread now... I could vote any of Brinn, Shasta and tp really, I'm just way too baffled. I'd probably be most comfortable with voting Shasta, but then again, I really don't know. *sigh* But I will vote just to save myself if I need to do so. I'm the only one whose innocence I'm sure of. (Actually, I'm kind of hoping I would have to do that... I would be spared from the thinking... )

Well, with three of the remaining four voters having already received a vote, this just screams last-minute-flurry. For it is the final person to reach the tally that is lynched I believe. Yay for last minute flurries!

I, too, would be most comfortable voting Shasta, in the sense that I can't possibly believe he is the Assassin, and I think he is the most likely to have evil intent. The only thing holding me back is the fact that if he turns out to be a Cobbler we have essentially given him what he wants by lynching him.

Am I making this too personal? Being unwilling to vote for someone because I don't want that individual to be able to claim a victory?

Maybe we three should just prevent the last-minute flurry by making a pact that we all vote Shasta?

edit: xed with the phantom - now I'm laughing, though

Okay, going off of this handy little list I made during my last readthrough.

Shasta has the most Cobbler check-marks.

Nerwen has the most WW check-marks. Eonwe and Brin are tied for the second most.

Shasta has the most total checks. Nerwen and Eonwe are tied for the second most.

I figure my candidate should really come from those names.

I want to vote, but I'm frozen. Because I don't know who to vote for.

I don't really want to make a pact. How do I know it's not a wolf pact?

I might actually vote Eonwe. He seems so slippery...

Hmmm

You know, I wasn't serious. But killing Shasta looks most attractive to me right now - he does look evil, doesn't look giftedish and if I vote him, you won't probably lynch me but him...

I have a bad feeling Shasta's just an ordo.

I will vote for tp or Eonwe.

I still suspect Durelin a lot, but I'm thinking she's more likely a cobbler than wolf. Though I'll most likely change my mind on that if she's still alive toMorrow.

Four votes so far and all for different people. Obviously I won't vote for myself, but should I vote for one of the other three? I don't want to spread out the voting too much...but what are the chances that at least one of those three already voted for are wolves?
