Poor Nessa. She was the obvious choice....

I'm tempted to just vote for Legate right here and now, but I want to see at least a little conversation before I do. I doubt there will be some sudden revelation of innocence/guilt, but one never knows.

I am not quite sure what revelation would you expect.

As for Nessa, if you say she was the obvious choice, then you probably know it best yourself. This Day is decisive anyway, whichever of the known innocents would have been alive, so now it's up to Lommy. There is probably not much more to add, although it would be nice to hear from her before she votes. We've gone quite far, basically lynching one Wolf sort of "above the abyss", it would be really nice to finish this "with a clean slate".

I don't think there is any reason to delay with my vote, as I am not going to vote anybody else anyway. I can still talk after that, of course.

I knew that. I agree it was the obvious choice. And I'm sorry I failed but I had no ther choice. Should have played my cards differently earlier.

Anyway:

To whatever audience is enjoying my agony right now,

please don't judge me too harshly. If I make the wrong choice, please remember it was me who nailed Wilwa and gave Eomer one more Night and Day. So I have not epic failed totally.

Okay okay, I have, I admit. It is my fault if we lose. Now I'd love to quote some stuff. Like:

"I wish it need not have have happened in my time," said Frodo.
"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us."


Yes, I've always been one to hate the end-game Days rather than find them exciting. Anyhow, I will think and analyse as much as I have time for (which might not be enough).

But just how can you judge two people so different: a relatively quiet new ww player whom you barely know and a veteran loudmouth who is your boyfriend?!?

Just let's hope I don't yeild to the temptation and end up voting Legate just because I would take it too personally if he fooled me.

I shan't hold a grudge if you choose wrongly, Lommy. It's a tough decision.

Well, obviously the decision is hard (and unfortunately you seem to fall to a similar position rather often). But like you said, Lommy, you have protected us and we got a Wolf yesterDay... so I would not worry about that. But seriously, I think if one considers all the evidence, I think it is easy to see that Hubby is the Wolf.

And as for your last idea, heij! Well, I might take it as a compliment, but the rest of the village would probably not approve of such a reasoning.

All right, I think I am going to sleep at this hour, which means leaving this thread for good and letting it for Lommy to decide.

I just hope Lommy will make it here to vote, otherwise the WWs win by default only because Hubby voted later, now that would be surely rather silly way to end...

Legate, if you're there, you can go to sleep in peace. I'm here and just about to decide the fate of the village.

Now, off to reread and think. I shall vote within an hour because it's disgustingly late here.
