The Saucepan Mandid it! I swear, I heard pots clanging around last night. I was simply minding my own business, dreaming away the night, and wishing that I had a nice big pot of tea to wake up to, and what do I hear but clanging and banging! I swear it! Let's burn 'im! I'll bet he even weighs the same as a duck! Come on all and let's get lynching!

A reminder: You can discuss people and mention their names all DAY, but when I see a name in bold , that's a vote. Just checking to make sure you all understand this.

Question Whodunnit?

Hmmm. The question has to be asked, who among us is famous for molesting innocent spider-things? bilbo_baggins comes to mind. I'm not formally accusing him, just declaring a very slight suspicion.

But the Saucepan Man could be quite near the truth, as well. If Feanor heard pots in the night...I always knew his eyes were somewhat close together...certainly, he will have to have a convincing alibi...

And besides... The Saucepan Man... Sam Gamgee anyone? And who can tell us who stabbed Shelob in the books! Bingo, you've got it, thanks very much, and have a nice day.

The Saucepan Man has been trapped in the Barrow!
Boots Alas poor Shelob ...

Well, as I slept soundly throughout the night, it cannot have been me that you heard. Perhaps it was the wind rattling my pots and pans where they were hung for the night. Or perhaps it's a stitch up ...

I say we search everyone's kitchen for signs of recently disturbed culinary equipment!

Then again, how are we to determine whether Feanor of the Peredhil is to be believed. It seems to me quite possible that the person who committed the foul deed would be the first to rush in and hurl wild accusations about.

And what about the phantom? He is of course a creature of the night and so quite at home prowling about during the hours of darkness.

Quite an eloquent defence. Just as you'd expect from someone who learnt his powers of rhetoric from Sauron himself! Hang him, hang him I say...

FEAR! FIRE! FOES! Awake, Awake! FEAR! FOES! Awake!

I think that we must needs discuss this at length before deciding because we have until nightfall (6 AM tomorrow, EST) before we will be hunted again.

Why are Feanor and Anguirel so bloodthirsty? I think they didn't get to drink enough last night when they killed Shelob!

Fear! Foes!

Rise, villagers. I call you not to hang anyone, but to decide in a council of gravity what we are to do. Shall we ask the eldest members of our brethren to lead? Or shall we all have equal say? What say you?

Though I can definitely tell you that we can find nothing out for real, we can have a lot of fun lynching...

And, anyway, Sam was the one who hurts Shelob, not me. I'm comatose in Rivendell by then...

Does everyone realize that the werewolves are going to be the one who will speak the least! (Now how many are going to speak up after I say that?)

I might add that Feanor did cast the first stone...

Who says the werewolves will speak last? They could be among us right now, listening to us betraying each other! Nevertheless... I think you might have done it. Comatose in Rivendell when I know perfectly well that you were in town all night last night when poor dear Shelob was murdered. You're lying already! It could very well be you the werewolf, and would I ever know? No! Not until you attack me in my sleep, interrupting such wonderfully informative dreams of flowers and llamas and many other things of that nature. And I would be dead. D. E. D. Dead.

My conclusions

Nevertheless, I have been swayed. We must unite, villagers. The textual, contextual and environmental case against...(dramatic pause)...++The Saucepan Man is extremely strong. Unless he defends himself adequately, I say we hang him by the neck until he is dead, as is compatible with the Village's 122nd Constitutional Decree. Who is with me?

EDIT: This vote has been reconfirmed! Ha!
