Ah well... is there anybody around still? I am trying to use some of the time for doing whatever good things I can so late at night, but slowly I am getting exhausted. Is anybody going to post in some reasonable time?

I'm here and I'm just debating myself whether I should take a look at Greenie's posts now, but it's soon 4am so I don't know. However I don't have an exam tomorrow so I can sleep as long as I want to.

Lucky you. But hey, I can do that too. (That looking at the posts.) Not sure how well I'll be able to do that at this hour, but at least briefly, once again...

Go ahead. Let's see if we reach the same conclusions.

1420!

OK, I've got more time to read over the thread now.

--Mirandir

I'll be back with my real vote, as that was simply a placeholder.

Well, I looked through LG's posts, fortunately there wasn't much. I won't go on lengths here, seeing Mac has posted, I will just finish this and go.

LG, from re-reading, looks perhaps more possibly sinister than I thought her before, she keeps Brinn & Sally mostly in a neutral or trusting zone, but then, she keeps most of the people there often. She could be downplaying suspicions of Brinniel:

Quote:

So I know what you mean - but I don't think just the fact she feels okay is enough grounds for suspicion. It's certainly enough grounds for keeping an eye on her, but not for direct suspicion - and I can't believe the fact that she can be a very sneaky wolf is the only reason why she is suspected.
Yet that is something I thought as well, so I can't mark it as a wolfy thing, as anybody can do that, seemingly. She jumps on some Fea bandwaggon, that could be suspicious, and on the other Day she dismisses it with mentioning the main participants (me and Rikae) and that's it, mostly. But whatever. She believes Lommy rightaway (with a slight carefulness), but that was quite the most reasonable thing to do then anyway.

Besides that, I have mostly learned only how many name variants you can make out of one name, e.g. Lomzy, Lommins (sounds like Moomins), or from another name: Leggings, etc. Most impresive.

But overall. Not enough for me to suspect her, not to the point of voting her, for sure, or at least not now. There are moments where she seems really genuine, and I hope it being so.

That would be it for toDay from me. A few more minutes, and then I go to sleep. Bye.

All right.

I am leaving.

Hope we lynch a Wraith toDay.

Hope the Village is full of intelligent innocents yet and will be so toMorrow yet. I trust that.

Ignore Cobblers for the rest of the Day.

Hope to see you later.

Good night.

I know. You make it sound, however, as if this way of thinking is especially applicable to Legate. It is applicable to anybody and therefore generic and the usage of generic wraith accusations is suspicious to me.

Other than that, I give up on you. Keep on living in your own world. I just hope it won't be decisive in the end.

1420! Don't *hic* lynch the tavern wench! We all need beer in thish *hic* town.

I have finished evaluating Lari.

She does not give off any wraith-like vibes to me, at least not if I'm interpreting her posts correctly. While her attacks against Durelin may have been somewhat ill-founded, I believe that she perceived a reason for them, though a more seasoned player may not have been so alarmed. Also, I think I understand her reference to Saggitarius.

I'll post my thoughts on Greenie next.

Nope I don't think I'm wasting anything, I've been making cases against people I find suspicious and just suspect you besides them.

No again. Those two things just seem to back each other up. See, looking at day 1 he was behaving in a way that indicated he was a wraith talking to the presumed Ferny. That had nothing to do with you being or not being Ferny, it was the way he reacted to your Fernyish comments.

As if they didn't have a reason to keep you alive.

My thoughts ran along the lines of Legate killing the only person to suspect him that far. Yes it could look bad on him (as it did) but Rikae can be very persistent and therefore quite dangerous, as you should know.

Yes for some reason it occurred to me you might not be a wolf... But I haven't considered for a while the possibility that you are actually an ordo. Your behaviour speaks for you.

Yes and I was saying that if we can't come up with any really good wraith suspects, we should lynch you! However I hope we've pinned at least one, if not the both, of them, so you need not worry. You'll survive but you're just going to lose.

No, the only thing that can make the village win is the death of the last wolf. The cobbler's life (and vote) can only help the wolves.

Poor cobbler! Did the wraiths see fit to keep him in the dark about things?
