Actually, that is a bad example; though the first one which popped into my head.

I have to leave...

++Isabellyka

Somewhat by a process of elimination (I don't think Nerwen's bluffing, I'm trusting Mac and Mith, Fea I simply have no idea), somewhat based on Rikae putting her in the suspicious list with McCaber, somewhat based on Nerwen bringing up Izzy is quick to defend and quick to point out what makes herself look good, and somewhat random at this point in the village.

I won't be this inactive tomorrow, but I felt obligated to sit back and take a breath today.

One of these people is a wolf...

Nerwen (has some evidence against her, but feels innocent. Has now meta-reasons standing against her wolvishness)
Fea (could be a bored wolf, and if she's (and I'm) still alive on the last day, I think I'd vote her to make sure not to lose against such a specimen)
Boro (has all kinds of evidence against his wolvishness, but his manner of going after people would also fit to a wolf)
Mith (immaculate)
Izzy (looks better after the throwaway thing is now being cleared up. Also, I have a feeling CoD-Sally-Izzy just isn't our pack)

Yet one of them is a wolf... one of them...

I'm going to point something out. xD

Nerwen accuses me; actually it was Mith who did it, Nerwen just borrows it - that I am 'quick to point out things in my favor'.

The accuser (Nerwen) is both guilty of 'quick to defend and quick to point out what makes herself look good' - yet you vote me.

Huh.

I think I'm going with Nerwen today. She's not a very likely wolf (but who is??), but she's still an unknown quantity. And since she's considering dropping out anyway....

Oops... sorry, must be my tone is actually off. I laughed when I read it. Really, I do understand. I'd kill myself first day if I was playing against me. Every time. Stupid not feeling good messing with my communication skills.

I'm actually trying to write a poem about something insubstantial right now. Like the way birdcages hold water. I'm failing miserably. Anyway, don't worry: I really didn't take offense, and didn't mean to give any back.

I have a poem due at 3:30. I needed somebody to vote for that enough other people found suspicious that I wouldn't be overly concerned I was accidentally, in my haste, voting for somebody innocent, because I'm not the only one, in that case, who'd been fooled. I mean, my bad if you're innocent and all, but enough people think you're guilty that I didn't feel bad going back to my homework and not thinking about the game anymore.

I still have no idea what to make of her ...that pointless babbling about the Seer yesterDay could fit a wolf who didn't care who got lynched as long as it wasn't her. But of course, this reasoning is based on my knowledge of my own role, which none of you share (apart from the wolf).

I see he's just voted Izzy– it would be quite a coup if a Borowolf managed to get the village to lynch all the CoD voters, wouldn't it? Even better than the Shasta affair...

I am beginning to get very leery as he puts it of Boromir... but it may just be paranoia..... but that wpould be a throwaway... eeek I share Macs feeling that Issy seems least likely from a group dynamic but....

Nog, Shasta I won't be voting for, for obvious reasons.
Mac I won't vote for, because I think him innocent.
Boro, He looks more innocent than wolf; though he is sneaky.
Mith, Fea I could, but as an alternative I suppose.

Which leaves me with you Nerwen, for previous reasons and gut feeling, as well as self-survival; since I have to leave right after this post and there fore won't be around for about the last half hour until deadline.

That's fine... I've just had confirmation that I will have to drop out.

Ummm... did your "previous reasons" include that? Or did you think I was bluffing?

EDIT: X'd with Mithalwen.

Well, this is it. Good night and good luck.

A last suggestion (to the village in general): try to pin people down on why they're voting for me. Might be instructive.

I know I'm innocent. I know Shasta's innocent.

I've been quite certain all game (this may be a truly tragic mistake) that Mac and Mith are innocent.

I'm willing to assume for the day that Boromir is innocent. Ish. I hope. *crosses fingers for luck*

That a little bit narrows it down, don't you think?

Well I was beginning to give up on you and Boro being ordos since you have both been .... not quite yourselves.. .and the people I suspected fail to be wolves time after time... :S

However Boro not voting Nerwen after his silence counts for a lot. So much easier to go with the flow.

What can I say, my lack of trust is largely due to my knowledge of your abilities.

It worries me that Mac has failed to ring alarm bells at all. But that is my paranoia.

I am innocent.

Looks bad for Issy on this reckoning.

I wish Shasta was able to participate more as our last seerdreamt innocent.

Clearly as Nogrod died he was the ranger save before. I hope that the ranger had the wit not to protect Shasta last night (knowing Nogrod would surely be the victim) and can so proctect him tonight if we can't finish it now.
