So, if you're trying to apply suspicion because I didn't end up voting for you, it's not going to work, and you should stop now. There was no point, at the time I really didn't know what Shasta was going to do, you certainly weren't going to vote for yourself. I got back from the school, looked at the votes, and decided to go with option 2.
Yikes! Testy are we? I was merely trying to make sense of it. You really should calm down Boro, it doesn't lend it self well to believing you innocent.

I find the Ka vote odd and I'm trying to make sense of it. I'm glad to have to totals clarified and it makes more sense now.

Not testy, I answered your question. You asked why I didn't go with who I was most suspicious of... and I said there was no point. I just hope they (meaning innocents) will look at it tomorrow and see who's been doing the poking and trying to continue the foray after you said you were calming down and backing away.

For anybody who feels left out, I apologize. I should probably have mentioned it before the game started, but I believe at this point it's common knowledge that if you play in one of my games, you should expect the occasional bit of modly intervention and reference to the good old days?

It's a bit like taking an advanced course rather than an intro level- you should already be acquainted with the basics before you sign up. Bit late for that warning now, though...

Ha. It's a good thing I'm only taking this course pass/fail, then.

Seems like I missed all the action. Sorry I couldn't get together a post tonight, y'all. I think the kill tonight is going to tell us much more about what happened today than most of the analysis we -or, well I- could pull out of the Day itself, anyway. I'd lay even money that all the vocal participants are still going be around at dawn. Very interested to see what comes of The Ka as well. I'm pessimistic about bagging a wolf on that one, but hopefully I'm wrong.

Shasta, huh? Well done, lad. You killed a WW with your vote and bought the Seer another dream with your death.

Guess I'd better go back and look over his posts and determine possible reasons for doing him in.

EDIT: x-post

Night 1 a phantom dream came to be
an innocent was revealed to me.
Night 2 at Agan I did glean
she was a person completely clean.
Night 3 hmm lets see morm, I thought,
and the first wolf was caught.
Night 4 after Nogrod pulled a Legate
I saw a creature full of hate.

My poetic attempt, surely not as pleasant or beautiful as our wonderful modgodess, Fea.

What are you trying to do, Boro? We've already learned that people assume Wolfishness when any sort of trust is shown. If I agree to help you with anything, or if it even looks like I'm helping you with anything, we'll find ourselves in danger yet again.

I still have no guarantee that you're on my side. You could be a WW playing brilliantly.

But naturally, if you are a WW then I know you have already been busted by the Seer and it's only a matter of time before you're dead.

And so.... I do indeed find it quite logical to agree to work with you. If you're guilty then you'll be dead soon enough. If you are innocent then I think you can do quite a bit of good.

If you can manage to keep from fighting with people, that is. Remember Boro- no fighting with morm today! (Unless you absolutely must.)

Boro, I was genuinely confused and trying to catch up I said...

Nope no reasoning from me morm, I said it the only reason I voted for the Ka is because I think the phantom is more innocent.
Wouldn't you have been better off, mister wielder of 3 votes, to go with the person you suspected the most...wouldnt' they have been in the lead? Or did tummy already have 4? Like I said I'm not fully caught up on what happened for the last few hours.
To which you replied with this...
