I have chosen to look at posts from the time after we lynched the two wolfs.

Ilya
: Has done very little posting of substans since then, but made sure to come back and vote. I am not going to go over her posts where she just states who has voted or where she just says hello.

Gil...would not be this absent, even as a wolf. We could try to put together another double-lynch just to be sure, but that sorta seems like overkill. I believe he honestly forgot about the game.

Gwath is still too slippery for me to get a good read on yet. It was kinda funny our reactions were worded similarly, yeah. Although, the points we made were different.

Interesting point about Sally's eagerness to double-lynch. Hadn't thought of that, although it is the sorta triple-double ploy thinking that can be spun either way.

I understand Rune's day 4 frustrations, though. It sucks when you're wrong and I think Rune's writing style favors hyperbole.

I'll vote in about an hour or so, after I've done some non-WW-related work.
Nothing that really stands out here, she seems to voice the same conserns as everybody else. . .except that she understood my reactions. I don't know if that meens anything, but of course I was glad to see somebody understood why I was annoyd with MormeGeil being a wolf.

I just can't decide who to look at. Everybody else but Gwath just looks so innocent. If we lynch Gwath and he turns out to be innocent, I'm going to be seriously baffled... Hmmm... I'm gonna have yet another look at Brinn's quotes.

I don't know if I will be baffled, it seems quite plausible that the last wolf is not the most obvious candidate and that is what bothers me. It is not like earlier in the game where I had a target that I was quite convinced about (and wrong), now I find my self second guessing my self all the time. . . I guess it is healthy not to be blinded by focusing on one person, but it is bad for the nerves.

Right now I feel quite good about most people in this village, but I could easily imagine most of you guys as really smart wolves.

anyways at the moment I am looking at Greenie's posts, so far I have not found something major.

Alright. If the wolf is not Gwath, it's Brinn who's maintaining her calm admirably and otherwise playing brilliantly too.

If it's someone else, the wolves have made rather bold bluffs, as I believe I've found "factual" "evidence" pointing at the others' innocence.

++Gwath

I won't be able to suspect anyone else seriously before he's dead.

With a high probability (or it seems so to me right now) I won't even have to.

Come on, you could try to whip up some theories so we have something to talk about. . . I also find most people innocent (and some is supportet by the so called factual evidence) but I just think we owe it to the village to consider all options and then we can always discard the theories we don't belive in.

Would you belive that my previous post was my post nr. 3000 ! (how uneventful)

I have looked over Greenie's posts and even thought she has said quite alot compared to others, she is hard to analyse. Her suspicions seems to be about the tone that people have in their posts, at least that was what she refered to in her example to why she suspected Sally. It actually suprised me because I did not see anything wrong with Sally's post, it could be a wolf trying to pull the strings and get Sally lynched without getting too involved. . . Nerwen was doing the dirty work and by giving her a bit of suport Greenie could hope to turn the village against Sally without leaving too much of a trail.

I know that this case is not air-tight especially because she actually uses quotes from known wolves in her case against Sally, but I am just trying to get the ball rolling.

She also suspects Gwath, but only because she is not sure about him and she says something of the same sort about Ilya.

If you are a wolf it would be quite smart to have one major suspect (Sally), two that you are unsure about (Ilya and Gwath) and feel good about the rest. That way you would limit the amount of foes you get in the village and if you post relatively substancial posts, you wont get accused of being a U-boat.

Anyways all this being said I do not find her that wolf-like. . .

EDIT: Cross Posted With Lommy

Then in post 1565 she votes for Brinn and then does almost nothing until she votes for me and yet again dissapears.

So she is quite the submarine, the very thing that made me suspect her in the first place, but for some reason she seems rather genuin. . .
I really wish that she would contribute more as that would make me feel better about not suspecting her.
