Though I would love to have a perfect ww performance it is not at all true. As an ordo my last minute jump onto Wilwa was terrible and I know that. This is not at all how I act as a wolf and after the last game where I won as a wolf I think I'd stay with what seems to be working.

Right before deadline yesterday I was frustrated and confused and was basically like "whatever something needs to happen" and I didn't want to be part of the Hakon-like McCaber lynch... though maybe it would have been better because then we would still have our Hunter.

Greenie is worrying me the most today. I'll go through some of her posts as well as some of Sally's though I'm pretty sure Sally is an innocent.

Oh and PS about the guard vote mistake: I was counting the votes wondering who would be guarded and saw that Boro had more. When Mayor Steve posted that Nog was being saved I was very confused. So I asked. I also put that he was allowed to not answer me. If he didn't count Sally's vote then this would mean that there could be people who's votes aren't counting and it would have been interesting to discuss. So I wanted to know if it was a mistake and if it was then it needed to be fixed regardless of the people's roles and if it wasn't then it was something that could be talked about.

Edit: Ex-ed with McCaber

McCaber on Inzil, nothing much to be honest. He votes for Inzil Day 2 (interesting enough the Day when it's pretty clear Legate will be lynched. However, I can't find any reason why Inzil was his "top suspect" for the 1st 2 days.
Quote:
It seems some of the biggest points against me are voting for Inzil twice, both when he was in no danger of being lynched.~#590
Problem is McCaber, you only voted for Inzil once. You voted wilwa on Day 1.

The most suspicious thing about McCaber, is his back and forth about Legate:

This is from Day 1:
Quote:
Although we shouldn't be hasty to lynch someone we protected if there's only one kill. That seems to be a very easy way for the pack to manipulate the village. Granted, it would only work one time at most, but it could still backfire horribly.

In the post above I accidentally hit enter when I didn't mean to. So, I will just continue. Then Day 2 McCaber changes his tune:

In 198
Quote:
Well so far I don't have any more brilliant insights. Although for what it's worth I think we have time for a Legate lynch toDay, and be ready to sort things out later.
Saying a Legate lynch would be good today, despite the day before saying the wolves could easily manipulate the guard vote?

In 305
Quote:
Well, I'm back. And toDay has certainly been more interesting than I originally wanted. We have Legate arguing his innocence, and ... just about everyone but Legate wanting to lynch him.

Right now I'm not prepared to argue either way, but I'll stay connected and think about what this shows about the "everyone but Legate" crowd.
Pointing out that everyone except Legate seems to believe Legate is guilty, but McCaber stays back and plays it cautiously, saying he won't argue either way.

In #319 he then says he can't vote for Legate, based on what he pointed out on Day 1, so he votes Inzil...and this is a vote he would know full well would not pick up any steam. Since, Day 2, it was clear Legate was going to be lynched.

In #368, brags about being correct on Legate:
Quote:
Well, all that I can say is that I was right. The guarding was an extremely easy tactic for the wolves to manipulate. In fact, I would not be surprised if the Legate lynch was largely driven by the wolves to see how much they could get away with.
In #514 he suspects Hakon, but defends Pitch:
Quote:
Hakon is doing his level best to appear suspicious, while Pitchwife is doing the exact opposite. He's taking actions which look suspicious, but he explains himself well and seems genuine. I know, a rather simple analysis, but it works for me.
But then in #590, after calling Pitch geniune he stays away from the Hakon wagon, and votes Pitch in #591.

Flip-flopping back and forth about people is one thing, but how does Pitch go from geniune to a vote? Your voting McCaber has appeared to be conscious attempts to stay out of lynching innocents. Day 1, it was wilwa, Day 2 it was Inzil when it was clear Legate would be lynched, and Day 4 you steer from the Hakon wagon, to vote for someone you thought was genuinely innocent?
