Ok, so it's not especially helpful that we can't know the role of who the Heir replaces.
Back to the usual Day 1 dodgy-poster hunting then.

Let's see, what's the vote tally at the moment?

Eomer--> Legate (1)

Lommy--> Nerwen (1)

Nog--> Lottie (1)

Legate--> Boro (1)

Greenie--> Eomer (1)

Sally--> Lommy (1)

Six votes and all for different people? You've got to be kidding.

Shall I make it 7 for 7 or be kind and keep the list as is?

That's up to you. I wonder if an 13-way tie has ever happened before?

Sorry I haven't been around, this managed to start right at the beginning of my exam time, so I've been studying all day. I should be around more on Day 2 if I'm likely, since my hardest exam will be done by then. But overall my participation in this game won't be awesome.

This Heir thing still makes little sense to me. Best case scenario seems to be we lynch someone randomly toDay and hope for the best (which would be, what, an ordo? any volunteers? ), and then perhaps the Wolves will get the Hunter toNight. That would be nice because than the there's no risk of him taking down an innocent and then the Heir would definitely be on our side. But that's a lot of luck.

I guess I may just end up voting randomly, though I won't add another name into the mix.

x'ed with Lottie

After looking at Nog some, I've added another suspect to my 'o.O' category. Some of what he says (killing the Ranger, for example) seems almost silly. It's possibly one of the worst options - it doesn't give us a shot at a wolf (Hunter), it doesn't give us any information to go on (wolf) and it doesn't leave us the Heir in case of a Gifted kill overNight (ordo). Then he talks about statistics for a couple of posts before making several posts that mostly just agree with other people. His next post isn't too bad - it speculates on whether or not the wolves would try to kill off one of their own in exchange for the Heir. He then suspects Nerwen, but qualifies it with

Quote:
it looks A LITTLE like that
and agrees with Legate's slight suspicion of Boro, which he rescinds in the next post (honestly, not that alarming to me). That post is a list, where he's somewhat neutral on everyone. Next is a banter post about the quiet/loud debates, before he votes for me, based on an early interacted between me and Zil where I say that I don't think Zil and Elra are packmates and Zil says that I look more innocent because of it. Admittedly there's not much to go on, but you'd think he'd go with one of the people he'd mentioned suspicion of beforehand. *shrugs*

Anyway, Nog has shot up to the top of my suspect list. If it weren't that we're too spread out already, I'd like to vote him, so if anyone else wants to, as well, I probably would.

Pre-Edit: I've xed since Zil's vote tally

Simply going by the read I'm getting on your posts, I'm more willing to trust you than Nog at this point. But I don't think that in and of itself is enough for me to cast a vote for Nog today.

Ugh, I have to go. I honestly haven't the slightest idea who to vote for. So this is totally random. Sorry!

I might go for Nog. It is funny how he didn't really say just why that "caught his eye". And he tends to be difficult for me to get a handle on as well.

Then again, I could consider Nerwen also. I want to trust Lommy at this point, since she's the one who reminded us about the rule regarding the Heir's new role not being revealed. That would seem to have been counterproductive for a wolf to have brought up.

If it weren't for the fact that this is exactly what I'm thinking right now, I'd almost say your tone reminds me of wolf!you again. Not saying I suspect you - not really - I'm just saying that I'm leaning in that direction...quite unfortunate, given that you're saying exactly the same things I'm thinking.

My brain is being troublesome again today, isn't it?
