Actually, Rune and Nerwen, crap my defense of why it would not make sense for me as a wolf to change my mind and seem possibly suspicious - indeed I believe I would be smart to do that as a wolf because then I could more explainably be alive after various Nights. But I believe that is not an issue importance.

Aye, good point that first one. And I agree that his posts late yesterDay were a bit weird - hey now Rune, I think that must have been one of the reasons why my opinion of him has changed.

My short debating with Rune toDay has made me feel a lot better about him. So I might even making a new 180 degree turn of my own... But i think I should really reread Rune's posts to get a proper picture of him. He has kind of flown under my radar all game. I'd also like to have a look at Gwath now that he has started to seem rather suspicious, and also, I'd like to have a look at Ilya soon since I used to suspect her and now I seem to discount her everytime I try to think who's the last wolf and I want to know why. I would like to have a look at Nerwen maybe too (because I've been thinking that maybe a wolf could be confused about ranger issues after all, even though it's unprobable).

Brinn, on the other hand, has moved to my "not probably wolvish" category to keep company to Kath and Greenie. I may admit she has given me a pretty innocent feeling for the last few Days, but I have kept semi-suspecting her just because of principle - I've been thinking "I surely feel good about her just because she's so helpful and she's always helpful, regardless of her role". Now I'm ready to leave that principle, at least for the time being, to get a more concentrated effort to wipe the last wolf out soon enough. Of course, I may reconsider her (and Greenie and Kath) later, if it seems I've chosen the wrong track.

PS.

I could actually happily agree with that.

Well, as you can see I retracted my statement. . .dunno why you left that out. I am not sure who I will vote for, but those where the first two that popped into my thoughts.

I still find Kath innocent looking and yesterday I thought that Ilya seemed quite genuin, so the reason I mentioned those two is because they are the only ones I have not been very unsure about these today.
I did suspect Ilya in the begining of the game, but not so much anymore and I have not seen anything that indicates that Kath should be a wolf.

Hullo all. A thousand apologies for running silent these last couple days, but as I'm idling in the Delta terminal right now, I'll do a big reread and try to get a longer post list type thing off soonish.

I've been rereading Brinn's quotes.

caught my eye. Could this hint that Ilya is innocent since morm knows so little about her and one could assume he would know his fellow wolf's gender and whether she's a first-timer or not? But surely, it could be just bluff as well... (I remember I was once a wolf with xyzzy and while I was lynched early on he got really far because he pretended to be confused about something related to me, asking "who's Lommy", or something like that.)

I wonder if wolf-Nerwen and wolf-morm would have started such a fight with each other. As far as I know, they don't know each other particularily well, so the possibility of a beforehand-planned wolf-on-wolf fight seems less probable... Also, morm almost got her lynched. I don't know if the wolves would have taken such a risk for no obvious benefits...

I'm actually more and more thinking that the last wolf is either Gwathie or Rune. Rune seems more innocent of the two, though. There are some wuotes that make me think he's innocent. Like this:

Would a wolf say this about a fellow? Spotlight the fact that his fellow has avoided making any ties to him? I don't think so...

So, I think we should lynch Gwath toDay. If I have a chance to look at people (even) more in-depth or something interesting happens, I may of course change my opinion. And now I have to vote a rep... Not Gwath, for sure, and not Greenie or Nerwen since they said they don't want to be reps because of RL hurries. I'm pretty much ok with voting anyone else for rep...

Okay, I'm going to sleep soon so I'll vote

++ Lommy for representative

Sorry Runne, I know you are itching to get to be a rep - but after all I ended up in Lommy because her suspicions match my own more.

And, by the way, this is probably the last you get from me in a few days since I'm off to Paris tomorrow. (Hooray!!) I'll try to post at least something very small tomorrow at the famous Greenie and Nerwen -time of Day, but I don't dare promise anything. More likely I don't have the time. I'll return late on sunday, so if both I and the last wolf are still alive I'll see you again only on tuesday. How sad.


EDIT: x-ed with no one. Just where is everyone?!?

Well - I mean I'm very happy to be a Rep just so long as those thinking of voting for me are aware that my vote will almost definitely go to Gwath. There's almost no chance of that changing. Just so you know.

Oh, that suits me fine.

++Kath for rep

If I start thinking he's not the last wolf after all, I will try to change your mind too, Kath.

PS. Just how many people we're having who say they will be very busy toDay? Greenie and Nerwen, and Brinn too?
