Yep. There is hardly that much to wait for... but well, one just feels better. It's this "what if..." But I will vote her anyway.

That's some serious flip-flopping.
I wouldn't call it that bad, I think Menel is behaving genuinely and quite reasonably. Carefully. At least I am inclined not to suspect him.

I took it the way she did not read, or understand, what has been said properly.

Unless...both Lommy and Brinn are wraiths/ferny/bad, working together. Is that possible? It doesn't make sense, since only one of them is likely to last the next two nights, unless Sally is passed over twice in favour of someone deemed more dangerous. It would be a pretty devious plan.

I thought about that in the very origin, but it is just senseless. If they are both impersonators, they will both end up dead eventually, and very soon. And one Sally is not worth it anyway. (And count into it what Sally said: that she is the Ringbearer. This way, she admitted that she is not an ordo, too - that she is a wraith now; whether she would lie about being RB or not. There would be three of them revealed. Not worth it at all.)

But this voting Brinn looks good. I suggest we go for it. Indeed, my friend Mohandas Karamchand there is enough of us who may retract and change the lynchee, and even more who haven't voted yet.

--Sally

++Brinn

And I like Lommy's post. And makes me even more convinced who is the real Seer here.

Hmm, now I took a look at the voting (to determine how many people might retract for Brinn, or how many won't probably come back), and you know what is funny? We were pretty stupid, as, unless I overlooked something, Brinn started the voting herself. And we just blindly followed (of course, it makes basically no difference if we vote one wolf or the other, but still, I guess we - at least me - did not stop much to even think whether we could have voted otherwise).

Just for those curious ones:

Brinn => Sally (Sally 1)
Menel => Sally (Sally 2)
Rikae => Sally (Sally 3)
Nerwen => Sally (Sally 4)
Mahatma => Sally (Sally 5)
Legate => Sally (Sally 6)
Greenster => Sally (Sally 7)
Rune => Sally (Sally 8)
Lommy => Brinn (Sally 8, Brinn 1)

(I had to look a while before I found myself on Legate's list. )

Oh my, didn't realize so many had cast in. We can still change though, easy.

I feel like going through Lari's posts but I know I don't have enough energy for a massive analysis now so maybe I'd just better not do it yet. Besides I might want to go to sleep soonish, anyway.

You did - I just didn't quote that.

You're twisting the truth - you put a period at the end of the sentence so I thought it had really ended there.

Berry you couldn't change it even if you wished. We're limited to one retraction per day if I remember correctly.

I didn't. You said that in another sentence.

I didn't call it bad, I just said I don't understand what made him change his mind like that.

I wasn't sure whether she hadn't understood it or I didn't understand her.

Berry, if they all were wolves, it would leave only one alive. And it'd be quite, well, unnecessary to sacrifice so many of them. Also, in that case there'd still be the real seer watching out for them. So I highly doubt they'd do it.
