Okay, I've seen some suspicion of Formy and I'm not quite sure where it's coming from. He's only made three posts, one of which was during the Night, and none yet toDay. Based on both the content and quantity of his posts, I think he sounds more like an ordo not heavily invested in the game than a wolf.

I can see why people may be gaining this trust for Nogrod. The possibility that the wolves thought Nienna a seer makes sense. The wolves main goal is to find the seer early; Nienna is not someone I'd expect as a typical Night kill this early since she often has managed to become a good lynch target during the first half of previous games. Of course, just because it's a possibility, it doesn't mean we should absolutely trust Nogrod for that reason. I agree he looks more innocent than not, partly because he has been quite sensible and has made valid points...but let's not underestimate the chance that he could very well be fooling us.

I think I'll just make a first vote now:

++Izzy

Because I'm feeling pretty good about her at the moment.

I admit I'm not as invested in this game as I should be; even after looking through posts, I can't seem to come up with anyone worthy of seriously suspecting. I do, however, agree with the point that's been made that the wolves will more likely try to look helpful in order to rack up votes. So perhaps I should take a closer look at the more helpful players:

Loslote
Nogrod
Pitchwife
Eonwe
Glirdan


Those are the ones who have at least appeared most helpful to me so far. Now, I'm sure a few are genuinely trying to help out, but I'll bet that at least one (if not two) is a wolf.

I think I might be safe- I'm actively texting somebody who's watching the game, and we actually talked about football.

I guess I don't really trust anybody, but there are certain people I feel better about and want arround for some time.

I want Formendacil to stick arround because his actions seems extremely unwolfish, it would take an insane wolf to do what he has done deliberate. (posting early and having strong ties with a packmate from the very begining)

For ones I feel OK about Nogrod, he still annoys me at times, but I have absolutely no desire to kill him in inventive ways. (It is a case about him acting as he normally does, combined with what can best be described as "good-wibes"

Wilwa seem to be her self and I think she would be a good and relative conservative choice for leader.

I also feel good about Fea, I am convinced that she would have done something absolutely insane had she been a wolf.

The rest I won't label as suspects or good guys, because I have not made my mind up about them. Some have posted alot and that often make them look good, even though a high post count shouldn't count for anything. Others I feel slightly bad about, but I have absiolutely no idea why. . .

It was actually Lottie who first brought up that idea, but I still don't believe that's why Nienna was targeted. It seems rather far-fetched.

I'm not sure what to make of Form. My reason says he'd be an unlikely wolf, because as a wolf he would seem to have been rather careless. The circumstantial evidence looks bad for him though.

I need to go back and look at the others.

So technically Fea could be Simon again if that is what's desired by the masses.

I'm gonna do another vote now:

++Form

Because I don't think he's a wolf.

I'm gonna save my last one til I have to go in an hour-ish. My vote will likely go to one of: Nog, Lottie, or Glirdy or.... maybe someone else all together, I'll wait and see what happens.

I would prefer it if Glirdan was lynched, but if that cannot happen then my only request is that I stay alive.

Some of what Loslote and Glirdan say... sounds identical...
Innocents may mislead, but at least we know they have the same motives as we do: finding wolves. They may have other motives, too (gifted hinting comes to mind) but overall, they're going to be thinking about that, and it'll come out in their posts, even if they try to mislead a bit.

I don't know why we sound identical. I have noticed that we've cross-posted pretty often, and I'll look over his posts and think "dang, he said it first," or "hey, he thought so too, I'm not silly" and I've said so. I have not been trying to agree with him, and since we've cross posted, I doubt if he's been trying to agree with me.

Dearest Rune, I'm afraid I have exactly the opposite view. I'd want you dead over him.

I can see some good points about suspecting Glirdan...but I'm not yet convinced.

I'm not sitting too comfortably with Eonwe, but I don't really have a reason for it. Gut feeling, I guess. Loslote bugs me as well, but I'm pretty sure that's because I'm convinced she has some sort of vendetta against me.

Urgh, I have Werewolf Block. And sadly, I just don't have time to look through the thread and analyse because I really need to get going on homework. Someone just kill me now and put my poor brain out of its misery... *headdesk*
