Okay: Eönwë, Greenie, Shasta and Kath did not do anything of importance but vote after Celuien's role was revealed for sure. Wolves!

Like said before, Eönwë was not probably picked by the EW, so I'd not lynch him first. Both Shasta and Greenie feel rather innocent to me (this far), so I'm going to vote the one my maths too suggest we should lynch:

++Kath

I don't think picking her would have been a bad choice from Rikae. She might be a predictable pick, but she seldom seems really wolvish and she's a master of slipping away from becoming a real vote candidate. Rikae could have counted on that Kath would not be voted out easily, even if she was suspected.

Also, when Kath's dead I feel freer. If we don't lynch her, I have to be worried about her constantly...

I agree with Lommy that too much conclusions can't be drawn from who Rikae would or would not have picked. However, meanwhile we wait for more people to appear and the discussion to get a bit more lively, I see no fault in discussing this topic. At the very least, it makes people say something. (Me included.)

Had things gone according to Rikae's plan, we would have three wolves right now, instead of one. This last wolf was meant to work as part of the team, not on his own.
Good point. In this light, we could look for a person who would fit in well in a pack with Dury and Celuien. (No idea who that might mean.)

I, too, have to vote pretty soon, and I don't know who to vote. I suppose I'm off to do some reading. And by the way, where is everyone? (Maybe I'm just irritated because now is the only time I get online toDay and I'd like to have someone talk with me... )

Because I have nothing else to do, I'll - surprise surprise - make a list!!

Sally - Leaning innocent? Hasn't changed at all during the last Days. It scares me that I hardly think about her as a possible wolf.
Lommy - I'm inclined to think her innocent. Her behaviour is genuine and hasn't changed much, and besides she speaks sense.
Roa - Would have been a very good pick for Rikae, but seems innocent enough.
Shasta - No real opinion on him at this point.
Legate - Again, a very good possible pick. I'd very much like to see him toDay before I go so I can judge better.
Lalaith - The double-scry stuff gives me a headache so I won't comment on that. Anyway, she has behaved very innocentishly toDay so I'm inclined to think her innocent. (Wow, what a logic!!)
Gwathie - No idea, could be anything.
Dury - Innocent, obviously.
morm - A very difficult case. Would have been a risky pick, but also a brilliant one. I have the impression of him being somewhat more helpful toDay. Don't know what to make of that, though..
Eönwë - No idea. Probably not a wolf.
Kath - Would have been a very good pick for Rikae as well. Could be the last wolf. I'd like to see more of her as well before I go.

So.

Being an excellent pick for Rikae:
Roa
Legate
Kath
(morm)

Has changed behaviour lately:
morm (Though he has behaved rather more innocentish... Bah. My logic isn't working.)

Sneaky or under my radar:
Sally
Shasta
Gwath
Eönwë
Kath

I don't suspect at the moment:
Dury
Lommy
Lal

This is frustrating. I made these silly lists to clear my thoughts but they are just more messed up than ever. I hope someone turns up before I have to go, which is in an hour or so, because I don't really like talking to myself.

Blah, it seems my hopes of getting company are doomed to fail. I'll have to vote very soon now... My vote candidates at the moment are Kath and morm, possibly also Leggie. I feel uneasy about voting any of them, though, I have seen so little of them toDay.

Okay, I am here, but I won't post really anything toDay. See the admin thread, what more, everything became kinda dramatic for me suddenly so I did not have time to do anything. I can't read the thread and thus judge anything, the less vote.

Sorry, I'll try to do better when I'm back toMorrow.

I will say little in my own defence, if someone's mind is made up about me there's hardly a lot I can do. I am not a wolf so my death will not help you, but nor am I the Ranger so it will harm you in no way but numbers, and we can probably afford a couple of mistakes at this stage. I would rather not be lynched though, it's been a very long time since I've lived to the end.

Oh, which reminds me of something morm said about wanting to be a lone wolf. Brave, brave man! I've done it twice and it's the most nerve-racking thing in existence.

Now I am going to make myself look entirely suspicious by suspecting Lommy right back. But there are reasons. She made three posts all within minutes of each other:

Post 1 - argues that we should remember Rikae was choosing her last wolf, and that Lalaith would possibly make a good wolf.

Post 2 - we should ignore Rikae's opinion and focus on wolvishness (here actually I agree) and wolvishness is appearing and just voting yesterDay, which she then admits even innocents did, surely then negating her point.

Post 3 - her reasons for voting me are based around Rikae's opinion not my apparent wolvishness, going back against her point in post 2.

But, actually, I don't think she's suspicious. I think she had little time and is arguing herself in circles. I don't know why she found it imperative to vote quite so early though. Anyway, the person I actually find suspicious is Greenie, who leapt on the back of Lommy's vote. The last game I was in, an unwitting innocent voted another innocent, and within minutes the last wolf had voted right alongside them, thus winning the game. Clearly that's not going to happen in this situation, we have too many players left, but it does remind me of it.

I don't know. This could be entirely reactionary given that the two of them voted for me, and that's the first time I've felt any attention on me since the beginning of the game.

Lies! All of it!

There really was nothing to do yesterday. It was becoming boring. People just go, "oh, he/she is a were wolf" and then they just go "yes I am" and that's it. AND there was much less activity that Day. Who can blame me? (other than 0)
