One possibility, obviously, is that the votes were made by wolves (both examples in this case are singular - I'm not saying both Kath and Legate are wolves together.)
Or made *on* wolves. Or a combination.

Or no wolves have voted yet, and Shastawolf and Nogwolf are just waiting for their comrade, Sallywolf, to arrive...

EDIT:X'd with Nog
EDIT2: Or Menelwolf, whatever.

1420!

You know, I'm quite curious to find out whether any of this "Oh noes! The wolves just have to do x and y and z" talk is actually coming from the wolves.

*waves to dead players reading the thread*

Well, Pitch, Zil, G55, Lommy, Glirdan

I'm sure you've by now worked out that I, Shasta and Nog can't possibly be packmates.

This may be of some practical use to Sally or Menel (unless they're both evil, of course.)

EDIT:X'd since my last post.

I would be happy to vote Legate as well, but one more candidate at this point would probably be a mistake that could help the wolves to steer the lynch in case they needed to and at least it might help them hide better when they weren't possibly forced to vote similarly together.

So I think we're stuck with the three: Sally, Agan and myself.

The trouble is Sally hasn't said anything today, other than that she won't be here, which gives me nothing to go off of.

I realize RL gets in the way at the most inopportune times, but it does get a little frustrating when it happens to so many people at once.

Well Shasta, you have just made wawer a bit... as I just remembered that one of the things that made me suspect Sally the most was on D2 when she appeared to say she wishes to see G55 to simmer but not be lynched when she had just made her "wolf-slip" and when people acknowledged it she turned on her heels pretty fast.

Now wolves often are opportunists as well, but some of the weight of that suspicion clearly lightens when G55 turned out ordo...


EDIT: X'd with Sally's... vote.

I think you're right... but of course another thing the wolves could be waiting for is for an innocent to get a second vote by another innocent.

Let's not forget that.

EDIT:X'd since my jewel.

And there's Sally with a vote for Nog, just as Nog he may be reconsidering Sally. Curiouser and curiouser. I may need to re-evaluate my trust of Agan, as well - I just thought of something.

Well, clearly, you, myself, and Nogwolf should probably decide whether to vote Agan or Sally and finish up this charade.

Well, I'm not sure I want to add another candidate at this late stage, so it's probably between Sally, Nog, and Agan for me.

I'm fairly trusting of Agan at this point, so I doubt it'll be her.

There have been points made against both Sally and Nog - but since my most recent post, I probably feel worst about Legate, and all the back-and-forth he's been doing with Nog takes on new meaning in that light.

I don't know if I'll laugh or cry if it turns out Legate and Nog are both wolves after all they've been saying to each other, but it's likely to be one of the two.

In any case, all innocent votes on other innocents are things they look for, and which help them play it out toDay. Also, in case we would be getting it right, they would do what needs to be done to divert the vote from one of them to one of us as they are so near victory.

That actually brings forth an interesting idea. If there is (and hopefully there is) at least one wolf among those already voted they would object to lynching her and tried to support someone else.

So let's dare them and see what happens?

So how about we lynch Sally? Do you see merit in lynching Agan or me instead?

Haha... you mindreader you...

Sally is a possibility. She did seem to be driving the G55 wagon on Day 2 with subtle pushes here and there, like I said - the only problem I'm currently having with her is that I have this lingering feeling from D1 that a lot of the suspicion heading Sally's way was coming from her and G55 being linked as a wolf pair, and since that's clearly not the case I'm trying to decide if I'm being unfairly biased or not.

At least some of it has to be....

I am so tired I can't even a coherent sentence. Voting now. Sleeping now.

++Nog

For fishiness and general plotting, trying to use my (apparently misplaced) trust in him against me, and what I still think is fear-mongering toDay. If he's not a wolf, feel free to lynch me toMorrow for my stupidity.

Note: I have no problem killing Agan either, but Nog's lynch will reveal moe, in my opinion, and Agan's clearly not the cobbler (also note Nog's nutty cobbler plan which...needed to be mentioned why, given that the cobbler's dead?), so....yeah. I'm sorry I can't say more now, but I have actually fallen asleep twice trying to do this post.

Voted now. Sleeping now. Would be nice not to die now. That would be bad. Sleeping now.

Hmm, what do you think my death would reveal more?

I can see you trying to rescue yourself though, as anyone would...

This will be interesting indeed.

A ten minute game.

I'm a few minutes away from voting Sally.

Persuade me not to if you feel there is a wiser way.


Where's Menel?

Are you sure, Nog? There's something in Sally's post that I'm considering very, very hard.

And good question. I'd rather he be here, considering.

Btw. it would be a rare coincidence that all the three playing actively around the most important DL thus far, maybe the game-decider, would be innocents...

Also, if Menel just pops in to vote, I'll say he's most probably a wolf.

Bah... where do I fit Sally and Legate both then?

You know how Boro and the phantom will sometimes do these elaborate on-thread shenanigans? Well, I've thought that's what Agan was doing virtually all game, but now I'm thinking I might have been mistaken. I've been basing my trust of her basically off this, but I suddenly have a rather bad feeling that that's the only reason I haven't looked at her very hard. Which is dangerous.
