Also, I don't doubt the wolves saw the writing on the wall and decided to throw Manwe under the bus some time ago. I'm not going to put much stock on when people voted - after all, innocents have reason to be very cautious at this time, while wolves probably want to cut their losses and make themselves look as good as possible.

If I hadn't concluded she was a known innocent, in fact, I would have suspected Agan for being too quick on the trigger.

That's not to say Boro looks any more innocent to me because of his principles, either.

Aww Boro you're so sweet! I feel almost bad about probably having to lynch you tomorrow.

Yeah but he couldn't possibly put him down as red all of a sudden, that would've been a giveaway.

Yeah I would probably have done the same as a wolf.

Yes, I was thinking of that too, actually, even of the chance of Macwolf slipping while talking to a fellow Wolf: as in, writing e.g. "I will do it toMorrow." Hmm, wait, I should actually add "if you are alive", otherwise it might seem like I know he will be. - And then forgetting it about himself. Such things can happen. (Or of course the simpler variant of him being a Wolf alone.)

Obviously that, and by now we can see it (it was clear to me already before I saw the rest). However, possibly there was some confusion about procedure among the WWs, given how reluctantly the "everybody votes Manwe" thing started.

How optimistic of you (if you are innocent), however something in these words strikes me as false. As for not defending yourself, that's actually one of the things that I did not like about you, I mean, why not at least respond to people - at least to me, for instance, if I am a known innocent. Or something like that.

Quite so, quite so... And if you, for some mysterious and disgusting reason, are a Wolf and Mänwe isn't, thanks for putting the blame on me by effectively using my words as the reason for making the other players vote Mänwe

EDIT: x-ed since Rikae's horribly long post

Aww actually I did that just because I didn't want to quote myself! (I said earlier that it's an offense to Shasta if we ignore Mänwe after how he talked of him.)
