Rikae, are you around? Who are you considering voting for?

Mac, same question?

I am going to cast my vote for Alona or Sally.

I believe Rikae retracted her vote and voted for alona.

Morm - well, I guess I'd have to say I'm considering voting for "No vote", since I've already voted twice toDay!

By the way, where is this idea coming from that the bear would talk a lot about the bear? What for? To tip us off, so we can lynch xem? What are you people thinking?

Mind you, the people spreading this idea around are ones I already didn't trust - but no one was pointing out the absurdity of that bit of reasoning, so I thought I'd better do it.

Heh.


And to the bolded part. I was going to point it out but was too lazy right now.

Well, it's psychology, you know... guilty conscience... trying not to think of (white) bears... that sort of thing.

I suppose.

I have no idea where Nienna got the idea I've spoken a lot about the bear. I don't think I have *shrugs*

Well certainly not compared with Hakon and the phantom on Day 1.

I think it is like a lot of other roles which people feel the need to talk about when the hold them. They could be testing the waters and see what people think about the role and they want to feel important. That is what I think anyway.

It would be a pretty pathetic bear that could not refrain from obsessing publicly about the bear, I daresay. The only way that would happen would be as a double bluff.

Well, I did, just not quite as directly I s'pose.

So, I wonder why a wolf would not use their vote power, but then I think, especially in the case of alona, that perhaps it would be a decent way to go if you feared being lynched. Doesn't leave a vote your fellows have to worry about following or not. If that makes sense.

Personal thought - Wouldn't it be fun if morm, Rikae, and Mac were the wolves?

I think Mira needs to post more so I can renew my suspicion of her. Really I wanted to hear from her before I voted...and I sorta have but...am not satisfied...eh, I have 45 minutes.
