Yeah, I wouldn't mind voting for Nog, but only if we have an actual real chance of leaping him with or ahead of Form and Agan. Otherwise it feels like a waste.

I'm here, I'm caught up, and I'm confused.

The Lommy/Agan thing is odd to me but I'm not sure which one seems more suspicious. I don't know Agan at all so I have no idea if this is normal. Lommy seems snappy though.

I don't have time for any kind of thorough analysis so a vote will be a shot in the dark... one thing that has occurred to me is that it seems unlikely to me that a wolf would be expressing much confusion about the rules, having had the whole previous night to hash some of those issues out with their buddies? Nogrod seems a little too bumbling in the beginning to feel wolfish to me, for example (picking on you because your name is currently being discussed, sorry!).

Any lynch is still better than no lynch in my book, so out of those who I dislike Agan has the most realistic odds of not leaving a tie.

Maybe this is a cop-out, but

If someone's not going to talk, might as well get rid of 'em. I just don't have enough time or presence of mind right now to come up with a better reason why someone else should be lynched.

A Wolfish truth is still truth. Basically for the last page you've been poking holes in things that needed it, and in case I got the chance to vote Nog I didn't want there to be any doubt as to why.

I believe that puts Agan at 4 and Form at 3. Nilp, Mac, Legate, Lommy, Greenie, all with 1.

I guess time for talk is up.

Nilp -> Nilp
Rune -> Formendacil
Mormegil -> Macalaure
Lalaith -> Legate
Kath -> Formendacil 2
Aganzir -> Lommy
Lommy -> Aganzir
Legate -> A Little Green
Nogrod -> Aganzir 2
Form -> Form 3
Mith -> Agan 3
McCaber -> Agan 4
Firefoot -> Gwath
Boro -> Nog

I still want to lynch Nog (and I don't understand how he has zero votes), but it would take five votes at this point.
(EDIT: Now he does have one.)
Out of Form and Agan I'd say Form is the safest, but frankly I dislike both options.

I dislike both too. I could vote for Nogrod, solely on the basis that I don't buy the other candidates.

We can't let Form threaten Nilp's legacy. Also, I don't think he's evil.

Of the ones currently available....Nog? Maybe? I think the Agan thing was blown a bit out of proportion for toDay.

We'll see. Updating the thread again.

All right. This is total chaos, but because I don't buy the whole Agan/Lommy thing as wolvish - and because Form is probably innocent -

Six now, but you know what? I'm pretty sure there will be a lynch, and I'm decently content with the way it looks right now, so I'm going to go ahead and

++Nog

because I'm much more confident in his guilt than in Agan's, and I'm feeling a little stubborn today, even if it probably won't happen.

Question The First

The debate raged long and hard throughout the DAY. Point and Counterpoint clashed in a rising crescendo as the inmates argued about their predicament, the meaning of life and death, and philosophy. I mean, if you Kant debate philosophy at a time like this, when can you? (Yes, I realize that was a terrible pun, I couldn't help myself).

Fortunately through it all, somehow, breakfast, lunch, and even dinner had been provided. Sadly, nobody saw how, or even realized it was happening in all the confusion.

Lucky thing too because the argument reached a frenzy rivaling that of an out-of-control roller coaster!

At last a gang of the inmates suddenly seized one of their number, seemingly out of nowhere, thrust him under the guillotine and pulled the lever.

CHOP

The head rolled on the floor.

It held no answers, only less blood than it had up till then.

Suddenly darkness fell and all were cast into sleep.

Maybe it was a slip, maybe it wasn't. But if it wasn't, why did the whole thing blow up? I'd imagine an innocent, even if gifted - especially if gifted - would be cooler about it.

I slipped as a wolf before and it's a head-desking experience. You feel so terrible and stupid, it's almost impossible not to get defensive about it once people see it, and eventually of course they do.

It just matches her reaction.

I could vote for Nog. Probably the biggest thing that's stood out to me today was Nog's comment on how "an ordo would be fine with dying", or something to that effect. I quoted it earlier.

It ended up being between Agan and Nog for me, and Nog's possible groundwork-laying for suspecting anyone on the grounds of not wanting to be lynched looks more suspicious than Agan's possible slip and general defensiveness.

I hope you're right, but Agan's usually pretty cool as a wolf.

I'd be willing to vote for Nog if there was a chance of him overtaking Form and Agan. If not, or if there's only the chance that he'll just add to the tie, I would prefer to vote for Agan and ensure that we do take the opportunity to lynch toDay.

Ugh. I suspected Agan earlier but she's been looking better to me lately. I also definitely don't want Form lynched. And Nog is creating confusion but I suspect it's just sleep deprivation, not evil, to blame.

Lommy, Greenie and Mac all seem like decent options to me. Or even the phantom, though he has no votes.
