Back on topic, our prospective wolves all seem to be suspecting one another. That's kind of ominous. I've looked back through Kath today (well, page 7), and I still think she's dodgy: she's clearly decided to pursue Nog, and is latching onto the BG/spot-the-gifted thing as a target of opportunity. Might suggest BG is more likely to be innocent, but again, how?

BG might just be making some very poor decisions. I actually think they're more likely to be innocent, since I think Pitch or Form are probably the cobbler.

You know what...there has been remarkably a lot more talk about either

A. Who's a gifted
or
B. Who's a cobbler

Then who are actual wolves. *headdesk* Gotta love how these games play out sometimes.

In Her name.

Speaking of Brinn, though, their latest post is pure filler. "Why are we discussing Gifteds?" has been said by half a dozen people at this point.

As for Mac on Shasta in #282: I think those are the same, and the first one killed me!

I think she was the first one to suggest it might be a NW tactic, though.

I just decided to write this into today's narration:

Tensions and suspense filled as they all stared at each other for several minutes. Even the dead were scratching their heads about what they were supposed to do with the whole town engaged in a staring contest.


Oi they need a wolfy-Boro to stir the pot.

I think the NW is throwing them off. They've gotten stuck on the idea of the NW as a pseudo-Cobbler, and the Cobbler as a pseudo-Tanner, so now anyone acting weird is clearly deliberately trying to get killed. Cobbler55's spectacular exit last game is probably partly responsible here.

Maybe? I'd have to check.

Still here, still awake.
