Many people have despised/disliked/not agreed with Fea's theory about who could be the EW. I agree that using off game reasoning is not maybe the best thing to do (in the viewpoint of the game), but I think that Fea's theory makes sense. Another thing we could use when trying to solve thew personality of the EW is the person in question's personality. I bet I could name at least a few players who lack the ambition and self-assurance to apply a wizarding position.

In a way, I disagree. I think he would enjoy picking surprising people as wizards. I agree that he must have picked good players, however.

The EW's initial picks as wolves probably follow the same lines of thought as lmp's wizard choice. Three silent, under-radar types would serve the EW best in the beginning: giving them a working-peace to do her/his bidding in the chaotic rushing around the loudmouths of the first couple of days (just look at the voting stats: most votes for Loki, myself, Lommy and even Spm - not the silent ones...).
True. I agree with you. Though not too slip-under-the-radar-people. They really arouse suspicion. Nogrod, you're making a lot more sense today. I hope it is not because Naria, I and some others remarked you acted strangely yesterday and you've decided to be more careful today with hiding your fur or magical powers...

Anyway, nice to see you around, daddy. You have quite a read waiting for you.

I am also worried about people who are generally trusted. Though, I maybe shouldn't say anything, since my lorebooks tell a tale of my ancestress who said the village trusted spawn too much, and that spider lady turned out to be a seer. *sigh* I don't trust anyone in this village.

cross-posted with spawn. the old magic of calling one's name and her appearing clearly works...

Well, I've got just a short time. I'm being called to run out the door, so...

First, Eomer, I want to agree with you (and do about Lhuna's vote) but for some reason you sound overly eager to make sure that we think you couldn't possibly be a wolf.

I also realized more than ever that we are just shooting in the dark everyday. But I think that we need to remember that two people are going to be wolves from the very start, which could help us later in the game.

Got to go, I'll be back to vote before Day ends.
