Hmm, considering switching my vote to alona, if there is support for it... perhaps still more suspicious than Sally, and her role might shed light on some others.

I still think Morm's a good choice for toDay, though I see your point about gleaning more from Alona's death. *shrugs* Can we kill them both?

Heh... well the last time I tried voting in the same direction as you, I botched it completely and went in the opposite direction. I'm also not sure I trust you, though you've been off my radar almost completely toDay. That being said, I'm amenable to voting Alona.

I'm not sure, though, that Alona's death would she more light than Sally's. Obviously, if one is a wolf and the other isn't, then the one who is a wolf is a much better catch, but if we can't tell that now--and I think we can't--then on the chance they could equally be wolves, each death would give us an entirely different set of possible related suspects.

So... if you're more suspicious of Alona, then go for her, but if you're equally suspicious, I'm not sure what the point would be. (And yes, I do see that in the quoted text you say you're "perhaps still more suspicious of [ Alona ]," but that's pretty weak preference. Can you talk yourself into a flat-out preference?)

As I see it, Alona's death will shed light on Sally, Autume and Lommy, while Sally's would really only reflect on Alona. Plus, the Alona-saving issue was the main source of my Sally-suspicion, anyway.

Fair enough...

On the off chance you don't vote Alona, I'm curious what you'd think of a Morm-waggon, and the consequnces there. Morm's been underactive (for him), and hasn't really stuck to interacting too much with anyone--yourself maybe excluded. I'm not sure I want to vote Morm, but part of me feels vengeful, and he's already accrued one vote, thanks to Sally (who, if Alona is guilty, would not be so evil, apparently)--though I'm also wary of throwing my lot in with with Miss 'saloser2005 right now.

Morm
has simply not appeared suspicious to me - I could be wrong, I don't read him that well, but I simply don't see what is fueling the wagon.

Just look at Tum's latest post. Not that you have to agree with her/us but all his posts are there in case you want to look. (I know I'm going to, just in case.)

I did, and I don't even see what she finds suspicious, let alone anything I would find suspicious myself.

Okay, that's fair enough, though my question was more whom you thought his death would implicate/exonerate than about whether you'd vote for him--though that question was tied in.

I agree with tum's reasoning to an extent--assuming that my version of how that reasoning goes is accurate. Basically, it runs thus: "Here are Morm's posts, here's what he says in a nutshell... and then out of the blue he has a serious suspicion of Formendacil, denounces him as the Bear, and votes thusly."

Insofar as I know I'm not the Bear, this puts me on edge, but the more objective case against him is in the out-of-the-blueness with which Morm's suspicion of me appears. As far as that goes, it looks quite odd indeed.

This is kinda looking familiar. Isn't this kinda what Shasta did on Day 1?

Edit: x-ed with morm and Form wow...it rhymes! I am easily entertained.
