Bingo. Since I was at risk, I was holding my vote till the very end.

And then the end arrived, and I was wondering if the late Agan bandwagon would charge all the way to the front to tie with Nerwen and I, and so I was deciding who I should vote for out of those two. Like I said I thought that there had to be something going on with with Lommy and Agan and was thinking that I might want to vote that way just to see if anything turned up. Ner went ahead and I felt slightly safer but still felt like I might have to choose between the two, and next thing you know Nog posted.

I actually had my vote typed out and everything (it was for Nerwen but I had Agan's name ready to paste just in case) and was ready to post it in the final seconds, but when I refreshed my other window I saw that Nog had already posted so I figured I wouldn't bother.

My question about the voting is this- did the WWs or EW even have to bother worrying about anything?

Nerwen was innocent.

I am innocent.

So there was not really a need to mount a late lynch campaign to save anyone. The WWs were free to toss their votes away.

In addition, I doubt the WWs would've even known who to save. I can't see any way the EW has told them about each other.

It is certainly possible that the EW gave them some sort of "safe lynch list" or something, but how would we really pick that out?

The only scenario that I can think of in which there might have been saving going on is if Nerwen was on the safe list and I wasn't, but I don't think that is very likely- unless the EW was wanting to make me a WW later.

Which would be smart of course. *nudge nudge wink wink* Guarantee victory for the Wolves, it would.

Okay, like I said earlier I keep flip-flopping on Legate, and I am continuing to do so. But the fact that he did enough for me to even form an opinion on him is enough for me to want to keep him around for a bit.

Okay, I went back and read over some people.

Eonwe is confusing. He comes in and gets onto Roa for criticizing Sally for voting for me and then voting for me herself, and then he votes for me.

Next, I feel pretty good about morm after yesterday.

But I think he was wrong about Brin. Her reactions and such seem pretty good after rereading her posts.

*chuckles* Phantom, you're always like this, aren't you?

Sorry, just felt like saying that. Back in a sec with timed voting records and some commentary on the night kills. *mutters about Volo and Kit, especially Volo....blankity blank werewolves!!!!*



EDIT: x'd with the last phantom

Ah, so the storms didn't kill you Sally? Excellent. A nasty one is raging here in Omaha right now, but it's nearly finished.

Lightning is so pretty. At least when it doesn't knock the power out. That would be a disaster while trying to participate in a WW village!

Nope, I'm quite fine, glad you haven't been wiped off the map. The storms are pretty much all around us (I'm about 20 miles west of Crete, in Friend, if you know where that is) but we're only getting a pretty light show. And I do mean a PRETTY light show....

Not a power outage! NOES!

Okay, I promise, I'll get to game discussion now....


Oh, and to Shasta. Sorry, that was a mistake. I only denote known roles; I must have italicized her instead of Nerwen or something. Thanks for noticing! *fixes*

Okay, down to business.

First of all, my little cousin Di should lay off the wax....like seriously....

Why did Volo and Kit die? Like Brinn said, it was most likely random, as Volo and Kit were pretty unsuspicious.

Random tangent. What if Volo was just scried as a Seer tonight? Oh, wait. Is that even possible? I don't think so. Just kidding. Moving on....

Anyway, I'm pretty sure that the kills were random. Volo may have pegged a wolf, but I kind of doubt it.
Agan may be a horr....ible person () but I don't, at least yet, think she's a killer. I'll have to think about it more before I sic my duckling on her.

And Phantom, why DIDN'T you vote yesterday? That's rather odd, especially since we all know you were around and posting.


EDIT: x'd with cousin Di

But I like wax. It makes me feel so alive.

Hnuh? But the Good Wizard did Scry hin on Night 1, right? If he didn't get to then dream, what's the point? It's like getting a badge that says I'm A Seer, Ask Me How but not getting to actually be the Seer yet.

I'm digging deep into the foggy recesses of my brain to remember if Seers generally get a first Night dream, or not. I thought they did.

I'm still unsure about Phantom, but all we've been doing is talking around in circles about him. Let's leave that for now.

It seems like someone wants to clip the Volo family tree from the root up! I'm the only gaffer left now...

I'll go consult the cards. Maybe they'll give me some insight.

Sally, a word before I go; I notice Ka is italicized in your vote times. Why are you so sure she's innocent?
