No, because there were people who suspected Eomer. Thus, voting him could (and in fact did) put up fairly high on the potential lynch list very quickly. At least four people had previously said that they suspected, didn't trust, etc. Eomer. If Lottie is his packmate and she knows there is a possibility that people will jump onto her vote, would she really vote for her packmate, especially when she could just sit still and wait for Wilwa to die? I don't think so.

I could be wrong, of course, but I don't see Lottie making that move at that time.

I think this is interesting, considering that before she wasn't sure about whether I was wolf hunting or a wolf myself, and now she seems certain that I was deflecting. She seems to have just magically made the decision just so she can vote me with a semi-clear conscience and have a good "case" on me. Bwah?


*blinks* Heh. It's been a while since I've been a regular ordo. I forgot how much I focus on making sure people suspect wolves rather than me. I do so hate for people to waste their time on frivolous accusations. Then again, at this point I'm thinking Greenie's likely a wolf, so that's comforting.


EDIT: x'd with Skip

All right, that makes more sense.

Yes, but she did give a reason for that in the same post:

She would if she thought it wouldn't point back to her or her packmate. In fact, it woud be a wise move, because people would do two predictable things....

1. Waste time checking through Boro's posts for hints that may not even exist.

2. Follow up on those hints by voting people he clearly trusted/might have protected, thus not voting for Agan or her partner.



I'm not saying it's the case, I'm just saying that it would be a clever move. And, as we both know from past pack experience, Agan is a very clever wolf.

Oh yes, she might have, indeed. I'm not putting forward Greenie's argument because I agree with it, because I don't, but to point that she did give a reason for suspecting you rather than Agan.

Oh don't worry, I get that. I just realized that Agan would totally do that, and wanted to put it forward to people who may not have thought of it.


I have to vote in like two hours. For now, however, I need to get ready to go....erm, where I'm going today (o_O) so I'll be gone for a bit.

Well it's that time, crazy kids. I have to vote, and it's far too quiet.

++Greenie


If she isn't a wolf, then Eomer almost certainly is. However, I'm not sure if I'll be back before DL and she's marginally more suspicious to me right now, so yeah.


Play nice while I'm away, kids. And don't forget....

You gotta find the Bad Wolf
Make a case for demise
Type your votee's name in
And press the plus key twice
But it's the highlight tag that really seals their doom,
Let's kill another wolf soon!

Okay, still working on my theory that both remaining wolves were still to vote when Wilwa got her third vote.

That leaves Eomer, Lottie, Fea, Agan, Pitch and Sally.

Starting with Eomer who did end up voting for Greenie soon after me. I'm not entirely happy about this one-man crusade, since it can be seen as a bit of a throwaway, and I am divided about his lupine credentials.

Lottie
voted for Eomer for pretty suspect reasons. It was mostly mine and his comments about her alterered playing-style that did it I think. She also made a fairly obvious gifted hint, as someone else pointed out, yet lived through the night. On the other hand, her decisive role in killing off Wolf-warrior speaks for her.

Fea didn't vote which isn't too reassuring, but I'm not overly worried about her at this point.

Agan voted Eomer and set him up as a serious alternative for the lynch. I sort of like the decisiveness about that. Although I think that Agan is acting rather cobblerish too, bringing up very minor points, making hens out of feathers in a somewhat disturbing manner. I know this might sound like throwing the accusation right back, but well, there you go.

Then Pitch throws out a late vote for Eomer, which would've killed him had it come on time. Was that really an accident? Obviously one wonders now about the identity of Eomer. A good scenario for the wolves, if Eomer is innocent, surely?

And then there's Sally, claiming she missed the DL because of her shoddy internet connection. I'm very concerned about Sally actually. If you are still around, who did you mean to vote for?
