not again!!
3 hours in and our village is deathly silent, come on people we cannot aford any bad moves because of silence, it is time for the entire village to step up and start figuring this riddle out, I am currently leaning toward Azaelia and Formendacil, but I am not 100% sure I will go analyze all votes from day 1 until now and post my findings

Cannot afford bad moves? Or simply are posting at their normal rate...

This is my typical mode, or would be if I had managed to acquire one: on every hour or two, then off for the night, back on just before noon, and then close to hourly for the rest of the day...

My point is that it seems to me that the main reason for the stifling silence in the village is the lack of our vocal villagers. Saucepan Man, Eomer, and Morm were our loudmouths. With them gone, we not only lose the most noisy villagers, but also the main instigators of replies....

All the same, I agree with you that it is suspicious, even if a rational excuse can be thought of.

A pity that you find me suspicious, but I really can't complain, after my anti-Wilwa rage the last couple days. And while I suppose that you can't take my word for anything anymore, I must say that I agree with you that Azaelia looks quite suspicious. I've been saying that for a few days though, without really acting on it or thinking about it, and after the rest of my poor voting decisions since this started, I don't think that I'm necessarily a good person to be listening too...

The way I've been voting, I should almost have been a Cobbler!

Regardless of that, I still think Azaelia the most suspicious of those remaining, and with a 50/50 chance of guessing at one of the Wolves, I may as well stick with her for now...

Listen up, everyone. I am an innocent villager who has consistently made bad choices. I mean it. I have always voted the wrong way, posted the wrong way, etc. But there are three villagers and two werewolves left. If you kill me, you will lose. Because I am innocent. And if the number of innocents and the number of werewolves becomes equal, all innocents will die and the wolves will win. If I die today, the wolves will unmask themselves and kill everyone.

I know that sounds like a dire threat: "Don't kill me or else!" but it is true. If I die, wolves win. It's that simple. We have to kill a wolf today, so please please please don't make the wrong choice here.

Your defense sounds exactly like mine. And while I can't convince anyone, perhaps, that I am not a wolf, that doesn't mean I have to be taken in.

So I think I'll stick with the gut instincts I've been having for days, and view you as one of the Wolves. Maybe this time my suspicions will be correct...

For what it's worth, though, of the five remaining, each of us has consistently been voting for the wrong people. There are only a few votes in Alcarillo's list that actually went to a Werewolf. No wonder the wolves kept the three of us around.

And for the other wolf, I'm really starting to suspect Boromir. He started off the voting against Morm two days ago, and was very quick to defend himself yesterday. Furthermore, he was more than willing yesterday to go along with the anti-Wilwa bandwaggon I had going.

On the basis of Alcarillo having been the only one yesterday to vote for an unknown, and not Wilwa, as well as having voted against Eomer, where I at least did not, I am tempted to think him one of the innocent villagers. But not convinced.

And that leaves Arcticstorm... He seems more a Wolf than not, just because he's consistently kept a low profile, and then popped up with some innocent-seeming statement that diverted suspicion....

So that leaves me with THREE people I suspect as wolves, and one of them is definitely a villager, and quite possibly two of them are. This is a serious dilemma.

Who jumped on who's bandwagon? I've announced suspicions on Wilwarin since Day 1, not like I suddenly followed you.

That could be an attempt of a wolf to keep his hands clean in the day and not at night. Only wolves would know of Wilwarin's innocence.

True, perhaps. But if my fate was tied to Wilwa's being a wolf, I don't see that it was necessarily tied any tighter than yours...

That's the part of this whole business that scares me! There isn't anyone left who seems reasonably free of suspicion. I'm not such a fool to see that I'm under suspicion- although I am innocent. Of course, two other people are innocent, and I'm suspecting one or both of them of being Wolves...
