Mister Underhill has been trapped in the Barrow!
Now I'm in a pickle not of my own devising. By an accident of timezones and deadlines, it's very easy for me to vote late. Do I wait and gather more information? Do I vote now so that it doesn't look like I'm waiting for a chance to swing the vote?

I'm still suspicious of Feanor, who warns us not to trust anyone, won't say she's innocent, and cast a critical vote yesterday.

I'm not sure where the Shelob suspicion is coming from other than that she's playing an almost silent game.

I'd still like to hear one of the Cailin trio tell me what caused them to cast their vote as they did -- especially lmp, who put so much stress on posts 41-51 but has never really explained why as far as I can remember.

I'll hold my vote for a little while, I guess, to see if answers to these questions develop.

Hilariously enough, you've just reminded me that I forgot to actually tell you why I won't say that I'm innocent (which I am ) any more. It's because I was running late and only just made it to class on time when I realize "oh crap, I'm running late" and posted quick.

I'm not going to keep saying this because either you believed me the first time, or you didn't. Once you get an idea in your head, nothing I'm going to insistently say will turn you. It's a waste of time and energy to keep refuting, when all that will do is distract from what's important: actually catching the baddies.

And I agree with the trouble of timezones. My own late vote is enough for that. It looks like "oh, Fea held off her vote as a wolf to _____" filling in the blank with whatever you like. It's not even that. I'm a college student which means I'm up 'til all hours getting homework done. As I'm in EST, "all hours" includes those in which Days and Nights end. I simply take advantage of all of the discussion to try not to waste my vote when anything could happen to make me think "oh, this one's a wolf. It's obvious now. Time to vote!"

X's and O's, and off to homework. Even though it's still early.

Another thought:

So Cailin would have died with Boromir? I thought Ang would have... That's not cool. I wanted Boromir to die, but I wasn't expecting Cai to. Heck, I still want to off Boromir. It's just one of those things...
