Boromir, do you want me to vote for Lal today?~Fea

If you think it would be beneficial, than go ahead...but I have a feeling she's not the last wolf, she's the tricksy cobbler.

I'm not quite sure why you're happy to still see me alive, but I'm not complaining.

That's if it's an Organic one - it practically comes out of the wrapping with a copy of the Guardian under it's plucked wing. I added Lancashire cheese between pig and hen and it turned out very nicely anyway...

Must be a strong one, what what?

Rikae is dead? You... you... there are no words in Entish, Elvish, or the tongues of Men (that would not get deleted from a mod) for this!

Well, I guess it doesn't make much sense to bemoan her death now. Only one wolf left while both gifteds and many ordos are still alive. That sounds like pretty good odds for us, but that one wolf needs to be caught still. With Rikae's death and all the stuff that happened near the deadline, I think I have a few opinions to revise now.

Calm down dear! It is only a game. And she did pick up on Sally before anyone else which may have been a factor if the last wolf followed Sally's request.

The odds are good but if the last wolf is among the quieter souls then it may be hard to spot them. :S Night kills may end up being the clues and that is not ideal. Of course with the seer and ranger it makes it harder for them because if they think they have spotted the seer there is a good chance the ranger will spot the same signs and they then have to decide whether to risk it.

Guardian is more lefty, Islington pseudo intelligentsia middle-class traitors - make it the Telegraph and source chook from Waitrose....

Actually, yeah, no chicken would be seen... errr... dead with a copy of the Guardian. Now, if it was a piece of Quorn in a Jamie Oliver sauce, now you're talking

Nogrod · 09-17-2008, 01:40 PM

Now where are the celebrations?

One wolf left (and the cobbler) in a village of 11 with the seer and ranger still alive! So 1-10 in counting the outcome, or 2-9 in intentions or alignments, which means we have about five Days to find the last wolf.

We can't lose this. Or if we do... then we shall have to blame our incapability for the wolf has really a hard time to survive now alone.

I'm going to look back at yesterDay and will promise not to make such a gigantic post I made yesterDay of it.

The fact that the votes were so spread and we still got a wolf is interesting.

Rikae -> Sally
Shasta -> Nogrod (not a surprise, he's been after him for a while)
Boro -> Lal (no surprise at all)
Fea -> Mith (not commenting on Fea at all now, though I wish I could - let the wolf figure her out alone)
Lal -> Mith (made sense from her point of view)
Izzy -> Nogrod (this vote might be shady)
McCaber -> Sally (consistently after her. If he's a wolf, he's the most lupocidal one ever)
Mith -> Lal (again, made sense from her point of view)
Nerwen -> Boro (see below)
Sally -> Nogrod (this vote puts Nogrod into a pretty good light, there were so many other choices to vote for)
Nilp -> Sally (very innocent vote)
Nogrod -> Sally (self-preservation)
me -> Sally (out of all Sally-votes, probably the least innocent-looking)

Well, that was less yielding than I thought... the remaining wolf is making his/her cases well, I suppose. Judging by vote placement only, the people who gave a second vote to not-Sally are the most suspicious: Lal, Izzy, Mith. Nerwen is, too: the way she voted, it's a throwaway. If you start something new close to the deadline, you have to be active and get others to follow. She didn't.

I will look at what can be learned from Rikae and Sally later.

Rikae really wants me dead. Why? (Not that I'm complaining, she's not succeeded yet, but she's after me like no other. I wonder....blah, have to talk about that later)Sally posted this yesterday.

Maybe the last wolf thought that she was the Seer.

Mac..I know that - there was an annoying car insurance commercial here where someone gets very agitated about their car being hit and is told "Calm down dear, it's only a commercial"....
