Oh hell, why am I still alive...why didn't you innocents just lynch me already, only the wolf wants me around in this game! Now we have to get it right today, or hope for a ranger protection.

P.S. which means I'm immediately suspicious of Mac and Izzy for not granting me my last wish.

A splurt of what's going through my head...

The wolf is either you Mac, who cleverly designed the plan to sacrifice your fellow wolves at the crucial moment to give you nearly free range to roam and presumed innocent throughout the rest of the time. And you chose to vote for Fea, because you knew it would be easy to convince an innocent Izzy to lynch me today.

What points to you being innocent -

-Obviously your voting record. Not inconceivable for a wolf (Nogrod attempted it), but highly improbable.
-Your reaction to my self-vote yesterday, seemed more out of frustration, like "Boro you're an idiot." Not laughing/joyfulness out of me being stupid.


But if you are innocent, why the hell would you keep me alive? Look at me, I wish I was a wolf in this game, because it would be awesome, but I've been a horrible innocent that has only served as cover for the last wolf.

Or, it's you Izzy, who saw Mac's "well we can lynch Boro tomorrow" and thought, ooh look at that nice victim. These last couple days you've been cautious, staying out of the public eye, while I run around like a chicken with my head cut off and just lead to lynching innocents.

-It seemed like you took a little joy in my self-vote yesterday. Not an "idiot" reaction like Mac. Also, you tie it between Fea and me, passing the ultimate decision to Mac.

-I haven't seen you answer why after why you had relatively strong suspicion's against sally, and concerns (but not big enough to "vote for him"), why you went after and voted for Nogrod instead. (Day 2 and Day 3).

What makes you look innocent, besides me looking like an obvious madman:

-Most of your explanations, when questioned you answered. And their answers don't confuse the situation, rather they clear it up. (Like the "throw away vote" thing and your response to Rikae's suspicions),

Something to analyze at last.

We're four people now. One of them is a known innocent. One of them is the ranger. (The two might be identical, of course.)

If we lynch the wolf today, we win (of course).
If we lynch the ranger today, the game is over and we lost.
If we lynch an ordo, then we have a chance for another day.


Why did the wolf kill Mith?
Out of all non-known villagers, she was the most innocent-looking, so if the wolf wanted to get rid of one who was unlikely to attract a vote while presuming that Shasta was protected, she was the logical pick.

Why would Boro have killed Mith?
Mith was very unlikely to vote for Boro today, so I would have guessed that Borowolf would like to keep her around and then bandwaggon on her vote to have a good shot at securing victory. If he wanted to get rid of an assumed innocent, he would probably have gone for me.

Why would Izzy have killed Mith?
She could have killed Boro, but he makes too good a scapegoat at this point.
She could have killed me, but Mith suspected her more yesterday than I did.


I still don't have a good feeling with Izzy, but let's be serious for a minute: If Boro is the wolf he'd be the most madly bluffing wolf there has ever been in this game, and he would fully deserve to win.

So, yeah, I will probably vote Izzy today, but of course there's still many hours to go til then, so I'll wait with my vote to see what's going to happen in the meantime.

What if you're the madly bluffing wolf Mac, that now thinks it would be easier to convince me to vote for Izzy than it would to convince Izzy to vote for me?

Well, to be honest, if I was a wolf, why would it be harder for me to convince an innocent Izzy to lynch Fea instead of you?

It was a toss-up situation and my gut told me you were looking a little more innocent. And that's what it's about: lynching suspicious people, not lynching people who maybe unintendedly help the wolves.

For all you know, I could be.

Hi guys, I'm on meds and bed rest. Lucky for you, my computer is a laptop.

Right now, my gut is telling me to trust Izzy, and I sort-of trust Boro because of Fea, so I'm looking at Mac for the moment.

I can't promise loads of activity because of my meds (they make me go loopy), but by all that is good and holy in the Harry Potter multiverse, I will vote today.

Oh for all sanity purposes.
Sheesh.

I am leaning towards Mac as the wolf toDay - either that or a really whacked out Boro.

Why: I've thought Mac innocent this entire time - with only lately his uber innocence making my skin itch. Why would a Wolf kill someone who is unlikely to vote for them? His voting record as a whole - which I've only slightly mentioned; has a few votes which were placed at opportune bandwagon time for a Wolf.
Plus, he is still alive.

Boro is more innocent to me, because of the voting by Sally for him on day one. Sure, you could have a suicidal pack, but that suicidal? Though his lynchings of innocents does not speak in his favor; nor does yesterDays little production. However, his reaction to the possibility of a bandwagon on Fea is more innocent than furry; unless it was another bluff.

Day Two:
I said, "I don't know if I would vote for Nog, but I definately have my eye on him." That isn't completely ruling out, voting for him - just that I wasn't sure at that time whether or not I would. When it came to voting time, it was either a vote-shopping-Nog, or a banter-IC-happy-Sally.

Day Three:
I hadn't looked at anyone else that day; so it was between Nog and Sally again.
Still a banter-IC-happy-Sally vs. a campaigned-to-get-gwath-lynched-Nog.

Overall, Nog is just scarier than Sally is.


X'ed with Shasta.
Edit - fixed a tag.

I thought before you said it was creepy? Or it worried you? Or something like that...

Are both of you trying to pull my leg?

Edit: Shasta, if you get the chance perhaps you could just say why you trust Izzy.

What also worries me about you Mac, is the quick change from saying I (and Fea) were the most suspicious/saying you could just lynch me tomorrow, to you thinking me innocent.

Plus your first post today about which one of us would kill Mith. It gets a feeling of pre-planned if you know what I mean. Like, "Well I can back off wanting to lynch Boro if I killed Mith, his biggest supporter." Thus making the scapegoat Izzy.
