I can't rule out page 4 because the evidence is that strong there. No need to look for any kind of mad theories, it's there. All you have to see is that two were going down and one had to be chosen - it's just working out which player thought which other player was in which role.

However I cannot see any reason why, apart from desperation, a wolf would vote WoW, so for me, this rules out Mac and McCaber completely. Anyone else still needs looking at.

Lal, since you are without question the cobbler, I'm going to treat you like others treat me when I'm a known wolf. Have fun talking to yourself dear, keep yapping, if it so pleases you. I refuse to go another day bantering with you.

I suggest everyone else do the same.

Nerwen, you're going to have some answering to do...

I was having a serious think about voting for the de facto cobbler– that's what Lalwendë is, whatever her official role– just to get her out of the way– but I think I'll go with

Not only is it another throw away vote from you (like Day 2's vote), but if you believed Lal was the cobbler, why would you think I'm a wolf? I've been after her for over 3 days. Sure the wolves and cobbler don't know eachother, but if you believed so strongly Lal is the cobbler than what's your justification for me being a wolf?

I'm going to have a good long look at Nogrod, sorry, while I agree with your list, and it looks right to me, you can't expect me to exactly find you the most trustworthy person in this situation.

Briefly, I’d like to get this out of my system right away; since I’ve been simmering over it since yesterDay after work.

Boro vote Day 1: Lal
Boro vote Day 2: Lal
Boro vote Day 3: Lal

So, first question. Why isn’t Boro on your list of consistency? When you made that post; he’d already voted for her two days in a row. Why leave him out?

Second question. Why isn’t Fea on your list of consistency? She has been after Boro since Day 1.

You mentioned it here, but seemed to pawn it off.

Is it just the ‘consistency’ aimed in your direction which you find suspicious, and take note of?
I think you are guilty of this ‘consistency’, which you seem to be paranoid of.

I think, the only reason I wouldn’t vote for you today - is because WolfSally put you in the lead, for two days in a row.

But toDay, it looks like you've got some of the paranoia out of you.


Edit. Fixed a tag.

I said de facto cobbler– meaning that she was causing confusion. I did not say I "felt strongly" she was a cobbler. Don't put words into my mouth, please.

Besides, just because I genuinely suspected her doesn't mean you couldn't have been a wolf feigning suspicion.

But that was yesterDay. Now that we know Sally was a wolf I guess that clears you of lupinity– I agree with Nogrod on that one (though he's come up with some pretty dodgy reasoning this game).

EDIT: X'd with Isabellkya

McCaber has been trapped in the Barrow!
So are we finally clear that Mac and Iare innocent? Good.

Now that we're all on the same page, I think I can afford to take it easy for a few hours and think it out for a while. 2 gifted and 8 other innocent versus 1 lone wolf - I like our odds.

And I figure that between the mob killings and the seer dreams we can kill/exonerate the five (or so) SPs (suspicious persons) remaining without much difficulty. I hope it doesn't come to that, though.

My post didn't go through... I sent it through hours ago... maybe my internet acted up.

Now that it's 1 in the morning, I'm a bit tired and not inclined to re-type the whole thing. The gist: I still don't like Nogrod, but as Sally (really, dear? really?) was a wolf, it puts him in a more innocent light. I do like and agree with his list (even if I am on it, ).

Hopefully will post more on the morrow, depending on how early I wake up.

Unless we're dealing with a wolf suicide squad.

And while we're on the subject of Lal...

This post is hurting my brain. Paragraph 2 appears to be a direct contradiction of paragraph 1.

What are you trying to say?
