This is pretty much the only substantive contribution that sally has made toDay. It's rather vague and sketchy, to say the least, although she does promise to come back later with further thoughts.

When it comes to it, the only real evidence against either of them is their vote for Hakon and Boro's mentions of them. Its very thin and, even though I do think that a Wolf is quite likely to have voted for Hakon, I don't really feel able to vote for either toDay without hearing more from them.

Which leaves McCaber and Greenie out of my current principal suspects. I am wary of this growing consensus against them, of which I am now a part, but they do both look rather suspicious. Probably more so than anyone else at the moment.

I am going to take a look back at their posts toDay.

Couldn't it mean we're right about them then?

Well, a cobbler wouldn't like that. Or a wolf-mate...

And why say you're no part of the "consensus" but still give the impression you agree with it? Isn't that a bit wolfy / cobblery - I mean when baddies are going down you try to both disagree and agree in hope of both trying to prevent it but leaving a trace you were actually suspecting them?




Okay, hoping to see you toMorrow... Make a good decision!

Fea

#57.Posts in verse, parodying "The Raven". Excuses her late appearance. Criticises Morsul's faulty logic and explains what's wrong with it. Is confused by the "Friendly Wolf" affair. Is annoyed by Mira's calculation error.

#61. Banter.

#64. Banter.

#112. Another verse-post. Says it would be in the Bear's interest to kill the wolves and vice versa. Further explains to Morsul what is wrong with his reasoning.

Up to this point I have no problems with Fea, as she is making sense and a couple of her posts have real substance.

Here is where things start to look bad. She's practically saying she'll be voting one of the top candidates simply because they annoyed her. I can't see that she mentioned Hakon before, while she had been addressing Morsul as though she thought his errors of logic were an honest mistake.

#167. Casts fifth and final vote on Morsul, commenting "I think I'll just seal this..."

No other reason given.

What to make of this? It looks highly cobblerish, but as we have all learned the hard way, wolves quite often impersonate the cobbler. There is also the problem that Fea is one of the "wild card" players, who might just do this as an innocent. You never know.

So, it's again quite inconclusive, but I'd say she's the most suspicious of the surviving Morsul voters.

EDIT:X'd since Pitch at #247.
