Okay... here's the list:

autume--first impression? She's ridden along on the coattails of others all game--Sally especially, but that may just be off-game camaraderie influencing what is either an extra-lost Ordo or a radar-avoiding Wolf. Or a really hidden Bear, but I doubt it.
Formendacil: Well, innocent, obviously.
Lommy: my first impression is to say that I haven't found her suspicious all game--despite her continual suspicions of me, which is rather odd given that I strongly suspected Morm for the same reason. It's a gut-feeling, difference, though, and while my gut still likes Lommy, my brain could be easily convinced otherwise... and if we get another Form-waggon, she's an acceptable alternative.
Macalaure--well, the fact that Mac thinks I'm probably innocent endears him greatly, and he DOES seem to have managed to remain mostly innocent in everyone's eyes--which is good, except that's how Bears and lone Wolves win... but the wolf isn't alone, and I can't get a Bear-feel from Mac--admitting, of course, I've said all along that a Bear wouldn't necessarily be discernible from an Ordo if they were clever--and Mac's played this game enough to know.
Mira really has said very little, and I'd be tempted to cast my vote in her direction. Granted, it's a bit late in the game to be voting off the quiet players, but there's always a chance that she's deliberately playing quiet so that she doesn't give herself away.
Nerwen--I'm not convinced she's the Cobbler, but I'm not unconvinced, either, if that makes any sense. She's definitely not as involved this game as she can be, but if she's the Cobbler, it makes more sense to ignore her right now.
Nessa, like Mira has said very little--less, even, in terms of my impressions, and I'd say she's made less of an effort to be useful. That'd be lynchworthy on an earlier Day, and I could definitely be convinced to go that way now... but it's not really enough on its own.
Nienna has been less than useful, and has not really responded to attempts to be prodded into something more... but, admittedly, I know she's been swamped somewhat with Real Life right now, so anti-usefulness doesn't need to equal evil. She has a couple of bad votes to her name, though...
sally looks clawed, fanged, and furry all over with her last minute votes and changes and the fact that she might be the Cobbler--and that possible argument that Durelin might have dreamed of her--inclines me to think she's probably just Sally.

So... in verdict?

I really don't know who's guilty. I'm not inclined to rule anyone out, but as for voting today, I'm inclined most to Mira or Nessa for being too quiet, or Lommy, in spite of my gut.

EDIT: X-posted since Mac's second last--the one I quoted.

Alright, let's assume Nienna, Form, and me vote Lommy.

That would make Form 3, Lommy 3, Autume 1

Sally and Nerwen are unlikely to follow, so we're still screwed. We still need Autume's retraction even to only reach a draw. *curses Mira's and Nessa's votes*

Heh. I could flirt with Sally. You'd vote for Lommy, then, right Sally my love?

If you want to see, you'll have to get Sally to come around.

Well, anybody is hard to get to come around toDay, it seems. It's a bit frustrating, all that floodposting in the beginning, and now that the game is on the table, half the village is silent.

I'd be willing to retract and vote Lommy, but I can't wait until the last minute to do so.

Erm, I could be convinced to vote for Lommie. I really want Nessa though. (Nearly finished with her, just checking in. Had to check on the kids but I'm here til DL now yay!)

The fact that Sally could be convinced to vote for Lommy makes me doubt my choice, but it's the only thing to do that makes sense, I think.

So let's start toDay's last minute bandwaggon:

Try me, my sweet.
Sally, dear, I'm afraid those fluttering eyelashes have set my heat a pitter-patter too, and I'm much too dazed to come up with the eloquent wooing you so richly deserve: the fine music and poetry of a Byronic knight below the balcony of a Tennyson princess. But surely, in your majestic compassion and wisdom, you could be brought to vote for that terribly suspicious Lommy. Would it help any if I said she was distracting me from the adoration of your beauty?

(On other notes... I'd be amenable to a Nessa vote instead of a Lommy vote. Mac? Nienna? )

I still prefer a Nessa lynch, but I could be talked into a Lommie lynch. I put her in my goodie section but she was supposed to have a question mark too (blast me being distracted!).


This for now though.


++Nessa


I think she's one of the best bear candidates we've got.

Nessa made one pitiful post toDay. What do we do if she ends up as an ordo? We will be where we are now, just (probably) two innocents less. Let's not shoot into the dark...

Huh.

Well, we'll see if there's any poetry now. Look at you, Sally, disappointing Nienna like that.

Mind you... I am amenable to a Nessa lynch...

Hi all. You should probably know that I've had some RL issues (work-related, nothing terrible) the past couple of days.

Why is everyone voting Lommy now?
