Argh, honestly writing an essay doesn't seem too appealing at the moment, despite the fact that there seems to be no one else around. I'll just blabber by myself for a while before starting to work..

The reps:
Lommy (3)
Boro (3)
morm (2)
Nerwen (2)
Agan (2)
Kath (2)

I'm quite content with our reps, actually. Two old, four new, and no one of them screams "wolf!" to me. Both of the two I considered voting (morm and Lommy) are through, and I'm quite comfortable with the other four as well. I'm also interested to see how it affects the dynamics to have among them two more powerful reps and four less so.

Hmmm. Eönwë's vote for Lommy came kind of out of the blue, and I'm not sure if I'm comfortable with it. Nog's vote for Boro also seemed a bit weird. If he doesn't trust Boro but wants to see how he uses the power given him, why wasn't it enough for him that Boro was elected a rep? I don't know if I can explain this, but to me it seems very risky to give a person you suspect a third vote just to "check his cards". To elect such a person for rep makes some sense; but giving him a third vote doesn't look quite logical to me.

No, it doesn't. Someone needs to go back and look at the interaction between those two. I'll do it myself if I have time.

It wasn't really. Most of the people I most wanted as my Rep (other than phantom and Boro, who I was sure would have no need of extra votes- and no, I hadn't read page 15 yet so I didn't know that she'd already got 2 votes) wanted me dead. You don't have to be a wolf in order to not want to be lynched. And anyay, I wouldn't be doing my service to the village if I was going to get lynched instead of a wolf.

Ah but since you said you didn't know what to make of his explanation I thought you hadn't understood it.

Eönwë, when I didn't vote for you yesterday, I said you could thank me by posting a list of your suspicions. Looking forward to it.
