phantom, should I assume that you didn't receive a dream last Night? Then we can pretty much confirm that Boro was indeed Elendil...not that it's any surprise.

Wow, you really think all three baddies would hop on the Pom bandwagon? I doubt it.

I do feel fairly confident that at least one baddie took part in getting Pom lynched, for reasons I stated yesterDay. And when I say this, I don't mean just those who voted her, but anyone who contributed to the bandwagon. Because a baddie can manipulate a lynch without actually voting the target lynchee.

Heh heh- if I had received a dream I probably would PMed back, "Um, are you sure?"

Well, Inzil voted early for Steve I believe, so that would only be two on the wagon, which would be an understandable number if in fact the threatened Sally was a KM.

Btw, you're not obligated to answer my questions, Brin, since you're a proven innocent.

Well, Inzil, that would be quite helpful indeed if you are indeed innocent, as that would rule out several potential packs.

Don't out the person yet, though, as they may be unprepared at this time. Give it a while and see if anyone tries to refute your claim.

Isildur- make sure you're ready to reveal at some point later today if it's necessary. I'm hoping you have some markers to point back to in case we need proof. I already requested that the Ordo information-recipient not out you, so you should have a bit of time to prepare, anyway.

It's at the point that even if one innocent makes a mistake(me) then as long as they vote together it's not that hard to outvote everyone else.

Inzil was seriously considering voting Pom though, which is why I count him as part of the bandwagon.

Darn it, Inzil. I was all ready to suspect you toDay and then you just had to go and do that.

I wonder if a baddie would risk falsely claiming the info. But unless we do have a counter-claim, I'm leaving Inzil alone.

Edit: X-ed with Sally

Dunno... I was going to run a trial of it in my head yesterday but just never got to it, so I haven't really thought about it at all.

If anyone else has considered it, by all means give your thoughts.

We know these are innocent-
Phantom
Brin

Pending approval as known innocent-
Inzil

The rest-
Sally
Manwe
Morsul
Steve
Lottie
Nerwen

Now, one of "the rest" is a Gifted that can hopefully have a successful reveal when called upon, so really that category is only 5 people, 3 of which are KMs. We can still win, but we need to vote together as much as possible and not spread things out to let the KMs stack the piles. Also, if at all possible don't vote extremely early, but also not in the final 5 minutes today.

So, Sally and Manwe (and anyone else around)- since Inzil has been tossed out for the time being, my request from this post is easier to manage now. Why don't you go ahead and give your thoughts, please. Mount as strong defenses or offenses as you can manage...

Dude, I would, but you know how crappy I am at reading Nerwen. I'll go have another look at her, but no promises that my thoughts will win me a sparkly umbrella.

Players who showed suspicions of Pom:

Morsul: Consistently suspects Pom all Day and votes her. Either a misguided innocent or a baddie jumping on player who's a potential easy lynch.

Sally: Suspects her early on. I mentioned before that an innocent is more inclined to feel suspicious of someone who voted her, but that doesn't discount the possibility of a baddie taking advantage of the situation. Her vote for Pom doesn't mean much to me since her neck was on the chopping block at that point.

Inzil: Leaving alone for now.

Shasta: Dead and innocent.

Nerwen: Replies to Pom's disagreement and implication about her not wanting to spread out the votes. Nerwen's reply was understandable as I felt the same way. She doesn't openly suspect Pom though until the last moments of the Day, then votes her. That I do find suspicious.

---

I don't know what to do with Morsul. So many of his comments and theories seem rather out there. But others say that's how he typically is, which isn't helpful. It could make him an easy lynch for the baddies, though if he were a baddie, the pack could use that to their favor.

Nerwen's vote for Pom is most worrying to me as her suspicions suddenly come at the very last minute.

I really don't know about Sally. I no longer feel as good about her, so she's moving into my 'not sure' category.

Edit: X-ed with the last few. Wow...okay.

Loslote, why would you (an unknown) receive a dream and not phantom or me (two known innocents). That just doesn't make sense.
