Silmaril Just to let you know I'm here . . .

Noooooooooooooooooo! Spawn is dead! Dead! And to think she were the reason I'm here . . .

I shall be forced, once again, to take up my swor--axe, and avenge her.

(I'll be posting something more useful later, I promise. ^^Y Give me time to masticate.)

No you didn't. . . You made a statement about not being able to see why I though Menel Innocent.

Anyways I don't know wether I should be conserned about the suspicions people have mentioned or flattered. I am glad if I am being more helpfull, one allways try to be, but one do not want to get lynched either.

This post is not really going to be helpful, but I have something I want to say.

There is to me a difference between being helpfull and making unesisary long posts. . .Sometimes it seems like people are analysing for analysing sake and using up lots of space on saying nothing. I personaly prefer when the post goes straight to the point with out too much weaving, it is makes things more comprehencable. . .sometimes it feels like slow death to read through them all and you end up fearing neither Eru or Ocean.

I am not asking people to use one liners, just don't keep writing when you have said what you wanted to say.
I will be back later with some thought on who to lynch.

And for today you passed.

As you can see, almost no one has remade the suspicions on Kathin or Glóanna toDay because all this concentration on the last Day's last moments
In no way have I forgotten about Gloanna...I don't see what all the fuss about Kathin is...but Gloanna is a wolf.

Quote:
Glóanna's guilt I was doubting a bit in the end of yesterDay and now I see her even less guilty.
Oh really...how did you get that impression. I see Gloanna falling hook-line-and sinker here. She is pushing for the focus on the Eomi voters, seems like she trying to keep the village looking that way.

One thing Bofgrod, about you...you're an amazing villager, if you be innocent I praise Aule that we're finally on the same side...But you overthink yourself at times more than your own good, when a werewolf is sitting right dead in front of your face. There's no doubt at times I can do the same, which lead me the wrong way, but I try my hardest not to. You know once in a while there is a bold, crafty wolf out there that will double-bluff but there are 2 more of them, and no matter how guilty they may look as wolves, they still to the typical wolf-style. And that right there is their very cover! As people start overanalyzing and saying 'Oi, that's way to obvious to be a wolf.'

I have done some soulsearching with this.

The doubt from the last moments of yesterDay I see as being quite the normal agony a minute before the deadline when one's vote starts to feel too heavy. Everything feels doubtful then. But toDay then? After some looking back I'm starting to believe it was mostly something like a feel good -factor. In the middle of the situation where I once and twice doubted whether everyone was going insane around, she posted most reasonably - and perhaps as the only one who seemed to have gotten my meaning right.

But surely, if she's a wolf and actually fumbled yesterDay she's now making it good very well indeed. And that's to be sure just the thing a wolf-Glóanna could do.

I bringing her back to my list.

Just so you know, I didn't relinquish anything. I've decided to look at other matters today. And I know you don't like it, but depending upon what pans out today, will influence what I think about you tomorrow. I could simply be tempted to vote for you right now, because I have a sneaking suspicion you and Gloanna are working together. That's just from one thing I spotted yesterday, not to mention all this other stuff that has been brought up today.

Hmm...don't know if there's anything else I need to say, my thoughts on people should be pretty clear. Today, I can wait to vote however.

This is somewhat odd. There seems to be quite a common consent forming around here... Bomburlass is generally accepted as an innocent, Glóanna is a wolf, Valier looks suspicious, Voloin is somewhat suspicious and Nori88 somewhat more to the innocent side... I do share these sentiments at the moment.

Runi freaks me out, and it isn't the first time. So does Meneltarbo Baggins. There is something in these two I just can't get a hold on. Tomorrow, if I'm still here I will have to look at them both more closely.

Also as we have been discussing the Eomi voters toDay I would like us to concentrate a bit on the "early voters" tomorrow. Timezones surely affect the time when one is able to vote but timezones do not make people immune to werewolvery.

ToDay I will probably go for Kath or Glóanna, as yesterDay. But I'll try to get a quick look at both Valier and Voloin too just in case something turns up.

I don't think lynching Beornómien is a good idea. She looks pretty innocent to me, not the least because of the way she acted and reacted at the last moments of yesterDay.

An interesting find. But maybe it's good to have a village that thinks along the same lines, for a change...

That is interesting as well. Do you happen to have any proof more than the feeling...?

Oh, me neither...

I might be leaving and voting soon, since it's pretty much not happening anything here. I don't consider it very good passtime sitting in the school library updating the ww-game every two seconds... But then again, it's only 20 minutes to the deadline! Speak up, people! Where are all the votes? Maybe I'll stay, maybe the action's about to begin...

Clear your mind, do a process of elimination. It makes the decision easier as you don't have 50,000 different theories and possibilities flying around your head when you come to a decision.

Just think who you find suspicious and who you think is innocent. When you do vote, don't even think about the people you think are innocent eliminate them from your mind. Take the suspicious ones, consider a few things like, who you find most suspicious, who you think might be suspicious but it's not worth voting for them today or you're really not sure and find someone else to feel the most wolvish.

Process of elimination right there, get down to a few people, throw out all the other 2 million theories spinning around in your head...that'll make your decision a lot easier. Trust me it works.

Is this a confession? An efficient defense by an innocent villager (or a wolf ) can save her. I think, Kitanna, that if you were more convinced of your own innocence, you wouldn't be giving up that easily...

If someone's forgotten my resoning, check post 158.

I see, I'm sorry, I had totally forgotten about that post of yours...
edit2: just realised I xed with Kit and Nog too...
