I mean it is one thing if you by accident do not vote and then the next day appoligise for it, but not voting was choise she made and if she thought it was the right thing to do yesterday then surely that has not changed?

Also I would like to make it clear that by not voting you are actually more responsible for getting an innocent lynched than if you made a seemingly random vote, because even though one feel like it is random it is always based on something. . . it might be tone in the post or some other small thing, but at least you tried to get a traitor and there is more chance of you saving an innocent by voting than by not voting.

All this being said; it is not that I am heavily suspecting Brinn, it is more that I think she acted wrongly.
Hmm... actually, only one comment to this one post of Rune's, that's again what I said in the beginning, when I said he seems too reasonable... now he seems rather too... "just", or how to say that. I mean, he looks like the "wise judge" in this game, don't you think? I don't know what to make out of it, though, but it may be a pose - good for a Wolf, of course.

This looks like the classic case of an innocent stating a weird opinion and the wolves following it because they don't realise it's a weird opinion because they are evil and thus their brain is not for real in the wolf-seeking mode or then they just one to get someone lynched, or something. That is to say that I wouldn't be surprised at all to find a wolf among those who talk about my changed playing style. In my opinion, I'm not playing any differently than before (unless you're all still talking about that accusation-throwing post, which was an intentional try at that kind of discussion-stirring) and just for your information, I'm not trying a new style to confuse you or to amuse myself. If there really is a difference in my playing style, it's totally unintentional. You may draw your conclusions from that.
Okay, well, now that sounded like the "classic" Lommy But honestly, I don't think it was that strong as for example Mith or Gwath now seemed to imply, but you were a little different than before. And that was not the first post only, but sometimes the others, too - a "funny" tone, in a way.

But, speaking of that - could it be that for example Gwath did jump on this train "Lommy seems to be referred to as weird, let's join the club, if there's a decision later to lynch her, I will merely stay within the crowd unnoticed"? His last post made me think about that a bit.

Yes, I think the fact that he voted someone who had already been voted for looks rather innocent in this company... it was a more constructive thing to do than throwing in a new name would have been.
Well, personally I don't think this is a reason for him to look innocent; now especially now we are talking about Nogrod - and he may as well have voted somebody who was already voted for rather than to cast a random vote, don't you think? This is not to say that I think it makes him guilty, but I am negating the idea of that this would be something which I would consider a plus for the thought of him being innocent.

Hmm, so what. Now this was only two new posts since my last one. I'm gonna stick around hopefully for yet about half an hour, but then will be back only at the DL - of course the main host of posts will come then... well, but what can I do. Anyway, I will have perhaps time to think, although only in my head, about whom I should vote for today. *looks around for a printer so that he can read the thread in the tram - or during the courses* (no, of course, that would be silly! )
