WW: LXXXV - The Lost Philosophers of Maiar

[A Little Green]

I might consider voting Skip, Pitch or Cailín - probably not Cailín toDay though if she's not around. I could be persuaded to try Mac, Rikae or Shasta, but not before I've taken a better look at them.

I'd say there had already been enough talked about it by Legate and Shasta, so it was a little late to gloss it over completely.
And if you want me to (and Rikae says it's OK), I can of course spell out what I think she meant (in which I may of course be completely mistaken), but I don't see how that would benefit anyone but the wolves. Anyway I can assure you it had nothing to do with me pointing out anything to anybody, least of all the wolves.

I'm not sure I get everything you're saying here, I'm not at all into hints and ploys and such in any case. No, you don't need to tell me what you thought it was about.

I don't believe I mentioned it at all, actually, but nice job at subtle suspicion-hopping.

Duh, of course you didn't, I meant skip. No idea why you crossed my mind at that moment. Maybe I was reading one of your analyses with the other eye.

Don't mind if you do, actually.

To be honest, I think I might have been influenced by a similar sentence that Inzil wrote and that I just re-read. It would seem stupid to copy Inzil's style though

Since Inzil was innocent, I think I can do that! And even without knowing Nessa's role for certain, I find it very suspicious how a lot of people treated them as if they were one person.

I didn't give any points to people who just stayed away (in fact, that's a flaw in the system), but gave positive points who "publicly renounced" it.

True, but a significant deal of suspicious behaviour occurred after my vote.

That's what you do if you don't have a bias. You should try it sometime.

Speaking of Zil, sadly there's not as much to learn from knowing his role as I hoped there would, now I think it over with a clearer mind. OK, we know that the vote that saved Nessa on Day 2 wasn't made by a packmate, but we still don't know whether he was swayed by an innocent or evil Nessa.

This sounds like a cop-out to me.

In the sense that you didn't suspect me back very much.

That was only one of the reasons.

Because you didn't turn out as evil based on my analysis than I thought you would. Don't you consider yourself off the hook.

Publicly renouncing a bandwagon against two innocents (if that's what they were) is plenty wolfy.

And I say that in spite of having done it myself, actually.

I hate to do this, but a girl from work who tends to call in sick at the worst times (and who thankfully won't be working for us much longer) has called in sick again, and I have to go to work. Right now.

So I need to vote, and it'll be a bit random, and I'm dreadfully sorry:

Good luck today!
