(OOC: LG and I are sharing the computer so we'll be able to post less than we might otherwise do...)

I quess I'm buying Greenie's explanation for the moment but I'm still a bit worried about Mac - and Rikae's latest confidence in Mac didn't ease my situation a bit as the old idea I thought I could get myself rid of ("when they both are in a game they are either wolves or lovers of which at least the other one is a wolf") started emerging in the back of my head.

Still I do agree with Rikae on Shasta - and about Nerwen, especially on the "too self-conscious" thing.

Also Sally's vote kind of makes me think about suggesting lynching her just out of pure annoyance. When one declares that one's vote is random there is nothing anyone can think or say about that "choice" as it is no choice and thence it leaves no tracks. That is either a cowardly way of playing or a clumsy trick by a wolf.

Also it's interesting that while announcing her vote to be random that random vote was indeed Shasta. Now with no disregard to Shasta I'd say that was the easiest or smoothest choice, something she might have thought wouldn't be jumped on by anyone... or a vote someone she voted for would come back at her. So was it a random-vote at all or just claimed random-vote? I'm thinking it was the latter and if I'm correct that looks very bad indeed.

You others have already pointed out all the backtracking she made alongside her vote (all the sorrys & hopefully I'm not starting a bandwaggon etc...).

Good to see I'm not alone with my suspicions.

I have been understood!

Meeh.


I'm pretty much in agreement with Rikae's thoughts in her last post.


I would prefer voting for Nerwen or Aganzir, probably Aganzir more. I would like to vote right away, but I'm afraid I need to be careful since I might need to vote Sally in order to save myself. Since I think Sally is innocent, I'm not very eager to do that.

The third wolf next to Nerwen and Aganzir could be Gwatha or Lily, or somebody else who's been hiding well so far. We'll have time to find him.

I have to vote now because Noggins needs time to post as well. So without further explanations,

++ Gwath

Simply because he looks most suspicious to me at the moment.

ToMorrow I promise to look at those who have slipped completely under my radar (meaning at least Lommy, Menel, and Noggins).

Mac 2
Gwath 1
Menel 1
Sally 1
Shasta 1

Right?

And where are all the people?

I would be quite uncomfortable voting for Mac on these basis alone.

Sadly I haven't had time enough to read Nerwen and Aganzir to actually form a reasoned opinion on them even if I feel there might be something wrong there.

Of those already gaining votes I might be persuaded to vote for Sally (look at my last post for reasons).

EDIT: x'd with Mac
