Along those lines, I'm curious as to why, when I commented on many accepting Form as an innocent without any moddess confirmation:

Loslote's response was this:

But now, with respect to Form she's moved back to suspecting him:

Back again... I had to go out before.

Interesting points on Lottie from Izzy and Zil. She's also had both known wolves vote for her– although, with everyone having four votes, and her being very active this game, that may not mean anything.

Well, to be fair, that was after analysing Glirdan's posts– and yet, I can't see that her analysis supports her conclusions. So Glirdan wavered about Form... so what? (In a similar vein, why the completely opposite judgements on Wilwa and Nog? Lottie?)

–Not that I think we should start treating Form as an absolutely known innocent either. Any game devised by the mind of Sally is liable to have some strange twists in it...

OR, our Moddess is Sally. Whatever the reason it's just really awesome. Perhaps because there was a revenge kill that was an innocent?

Also, you ended up voting for Rune. Why him over Nog and Loslote whom had been higher on your trust list? Whenyou'd stated that your last would go to Nog, Loslote, or Glirdan.
K, to answer both of these. Glirdan and I always suspect each other for some screwed up reason, and when we do we are always wrong. So I was trying not to suspect him because I figured it was just out of habit and nothing concrete (I think he was attempting to do the same thing, and now I see that he was probably just trying to get my trust, and I'm angry that I didn't just go after him like always). It's also his first real game in forever (since he died first day on the last one) and I kinda wanted him to stay around for a little while. I also didn't want all my votes yesterDay to go to all the same people as the Day before, and Nog and Lottie seemed like they were going to be fine, they were getting a fair amount of trust and I believe already had a few votes (Lottie also had that bonus vote). So I decided to vote for some people who didn't have too many, and who I didn't necessarily want to see lynched.

As I see it our votes don't all have to go to people we completely trust. If mine had I probably would have voted for all the same people I had the Day before and what fun is that? So I think some votes can go for people that you don't necessarily *trust* but also don't really suspect and want to have lynched. Just the way I see it.

I'll be back in a couple of hours, once I get to school.

x'ed with Nerwen

Well, you're right in that the flip-flop came after she looked at Glirdan, but she doesn't explain in that analysis why Form looks bad again.

No, he doesn't get a free pass, even though I'm leaning toward thinking him more innocent than not. It's still odd that Nog and Rune were so quick to vote for him after the narrative in which he killed Pitch, though.

I am afraid that today will be a quiet one for me, I will be online now and then again to vote arround midnight.

I for one did not assume Form to be a proven innocent, but I did not suspect him and the whole "lover" scenario did not make him look any worse. I did not vote for him at first as it would not have been wise strategically. . . (Form, Brinn and Me all being tied on 0 votes)

As for people voting for people low on their "trust-list". . . is that not a normal part of the game? I assume that some votes will be cast for simons and others will be to protect people from lynching. (sometimes you protect people you don't particular trust)
