I'm beginning to agree with those who say Eönwë is a cobbler. That does not merit lynching him, though.

I'm really not liking the way this game is going. I'm pretty sure a win (or loss) could be right around the corner.

At last? At least, I'd say. I don't know what Nerwen is, and I admit her vote is not well reasoned. I like it nevertheless. But why get so edgy so early? She said she'd be back and change if needed. I will be long gone once she reappears while you'll be here to convince her you're on the same side (whatever side you try to confirm her of ).

Ok Boro I promise I will remember those pieces of advice next time.

For the first time in a few Days I'm feeling good about this game. I wonder if it means we're finally doomed for good. (<- and I'm not putting that laughing face there because I'm thinking of us getting doomed, I'm just thinking of us having a real chance to lynch Mac and thinking "heck we might survive after all".)

*flip-flop-flip-flop*

Can you hear that? It is the sound of a Lommy flip-flop coming. I think Eönwë is an ordo. And yes, for no other reason but that he finds me innocent. If he was acobbler, he would have gone by exactly the same logic he presents and not posted that but started attacking me and trying to get Mac with him.

Okay I feel that due to Inzil's proven innocence and some other stuff (like this comment of Eönwë's, although knowing him, he will probably make soon another post that incriminates him in my eyes - hey wait he could be a mutineer after all, it could make sense but it must wait until I think more about it), it's time for me to make a new list of how I believe the roles were given out.

I KNEW that was coming from you. I agree Eönwë hasn't helped us too much - except with his handy tables and a point or two - but it doesn't surely mean he's a mutineer. I can imagine him being just intimidated by the setting and not pushing his way to make points against other people, like you and me have done, but that doesn't give any clue to his role.

Nay, Mac, I've made that mistake once and I wouldn't do it again. I've lost one game because of being so certain and desperate on the last Day, so if I was a wolf now, I'd be really much more careful and subtle and not attack you like a rabid dog. (Haha what a well chosen comparison.) My boldness, if you want to call it that, has been simply out of confidence in your guilt and desperation not to lose this game. ToDay it's looking probable we lynch you and I'm becoming happy because it looks like we have postponed our death a little and we may still solve this mystery in time.

It's far from certain anyway. Just relax Mac. Unfortunately you're not dead yet.

And Shasta - that is exactly what I'd do in your place, you can't win this without turning on Mac but you're not too happy with me alive so if I was you I'd do exactly the same... but I hope it's not enough to save you.

Lommy, Eonwe, Gwath... who's the fourth one in there? After looking at Eonwe, I don't think it could be dead-Sally anymore.

Oh Mac and Sally, you're sweet. Mac you're so hard trying to make a case out of thin air. You think you can retain your credibility after concluding: "I wish I could say something in his defense, but there really isn't anything. Eonwe's a mutineer." based on that? You could've said "this looks rather fishy, I think Eönwë is a mutineer" and you might've had a chance. And Sally, it's nice you talk to your mates from the grave. Too bad we others can read too.

Actually, I was just voicing my suspicions that the game could soon be over, either way. And I warned you before to be careful who you lynched, but no one listened, so it's your own faults.

I think that that Lommy's relentless going-after-Mac makes her look innocent, as I don't think a wolf would go that far, as it "puts her out" more. If it was a wolf-on-wolf, then now that Mac has started to gain suspicion, then I would have expected her to slow down (though very subtly so as not to arouse suspicion), whereas she's still going for it- in fact, she is daring anyone to challenge her argument, which she claims is the best so far. Wolf-on innocent could be a possibility, but since Mac does look a little suspicious I don't think this is likely.
The other option, of course is that it is innocent-on-innocent, which is quite possible in such a game where no-one knows anything.
