First off - sorry Nerwen and thanks Boro. I do not suspect Nerwen after all. I totally forgot about the ranger-mistake. I think she wouldn't have cheated that way if she was a wolf... Now you two are probably happy to know that this makes me more suspicious of morm who keeps insisting on Nerwen's guilt for rather flimsy reasons. But it would be really ironic if morm happened to be a baddie in the first game ever I've started to trust him even a little...

About tp and Boro (only this, I swear) - I think both Kath and Nog have a point about them. But I'd still give them another Day. After all, currently I'm thinking that if they are smarter than me, they're wolves, and if I'm smarter than them, they're innocent.

Here's something I do not like:

Morm or Boro or Phantom (preferably one of the former, as then we can get on with our lives. heh.)
Gwath (because we can )
It looks very furrily opportunistic. There she has listed almost every single person who has been suspected toDay. Looks like she's willing to support any bandwagon that appears. (She's not a rep, but still, that's rather bad. She keeps all doors open for lobbying to get just about anyone lynched.)


edit: xed with Kath

Where have I been insisting Nerwen guilt? This is a clear case of Boro's influencing you Lommy. I have said little today about Nerwen. I do suspect her but not what it was yesterday...have you missed the whole Boro/Morm saga? Now this isn't to ridicule you but I have noticed that Boro has been throwing out statements like what you just said all day. I can only imagine that you are now influenced by him. Check your reasoning on this Lommy.

Looks like I'm just influenced by everything toDay. I really feel I'd better go to sleep, but I have to vote first and I want to vote wisely...

I must be going for a few hours but it occured to me that we haven't really heard from Shasta today, which is odd after he was so vocal at the start.

Conclusions about Nog's voting guide-

1) On Day 1, the only possibility of a threatened WW was Gwath. If he is indeed a WW, then Boro would be a possible suspect.

2) On Day 2, the only possibility of a threatened WW was Nerwen. If she is indeed a WW, then Lommy would be a possible suspect.

3) Assuming Gwath is innocent, then Boro's decisive vote makes him look innocent.

4) Assuming Nerwen is innocent, then Lommy's decisive vote makes her look innocent.

I don't follow this logic. Why?

I have a theory on it. It probably isn't correct, but it's something that popped into my mind.

Early in the day Boro said this-
Quote:
If I vote for you as a rep, does that mean I have your sworn word that you will lynch Shasta?
Now, if the WWs are at all worried about Boro as a potential Seer, this looks like a silver bullet right there (assuming Shasta is a WW). And even though from my vantage point I can tell you Boro is extremely unlikely to be our Seer, you can understand that the WWs would be much more paranoid about it, and therefore more likely to make errors on the matter.

So perhaps Shasta read that and thought, "I'm screwed. I'd best just not show up and say anything that would incriminate my fellows. Especially since the tide is turning against Boro anyway."

I'd say that the possibility is a longshot, but it's the idea that struck me.

Because WWs tend to shy away from killing innocents right out in the open. WWs worry that there might be a backlash from causing the death of an innocent. When no WWs are on the chopping block, it would be better to put your vote elsewhere and let the Ordos do the actual lynching.
