Dear Sallykinscakekidneyobsesser, I did not mean *I* considered voting you, I meant the lynch seemed to be a choice between you and Lottie and I obviously preferred Lottie to die because I thought her suspicious and you innocent.

Too . . . confused . . . to think . . .

Seriously, I can't seem to get this game straight in my head. On the bright side, I'm apparently "enigmatic!" Which is good. I hope.

Anyway, the only two that strike me as guilty are the same two who (unless I missed someone/thing) have the only votes from anybody else today: Galadriel55 and Nogrod. I keep thinking that Noggie's abandoning of the Kit-wagon was him recognizing that an innocent was already going to die, so he might as well stay far away from it to avoid looking guilty.

EDIT: Er, on the other hand, he voted for Lottie, which I (somehow) managed to miss. Soooooo . . . bah. Confused again.

I don't exactly think so. Goes both ways, doesn't it?

Anyways, I hope you post a little more toDay. Please?

I'm forced to vote early again (in less than 20 minutes) and for now my vote-candidate is Nog.

Do you read everything or do you just pick some posts to read G55? If you do read everything I'd like to hear what do you think is suspicious in my post explaining my votes a few posts ago? Just make your case and do not just follow those who voted/ suspected before they were answered.

At least do it before you vote so that the posterity can then catch you on that.


Or let's make a more accurate question: which evidence you think counts or what kind of data is important? Let us have your take on the relative merits of different issues (using certain kinds of words, voting in certain way, being backed up by someone, reacting in a way X or Y to something, having a seeming relation to someone, being suggested guilty / innocent by X or Y...). Let us hear you.

Do not let yourself too easy with this. It's much more fun if you give it some real effort.


Good night and good luck!

I've read everything, don't worry.

My reaction to yor vote-explaining post was "of course he would say that."

You want more evidence?

I said some things in my analysis, although that is kind of outdated. In my conclusion I said that your posts give me good vibes, but now that is changed.

Your Lottie-vote didn't change anything at all. If you are her packmate, your vote would make you look innocent. As I said before, you only started pressing her and "noticing" queer things about her after Shasta got the stone rolling towards her. You answered some things here, but the Lottie-vote-excuse is still shoddy.

Then your vote for Mith - came, as I said, almost out of nowhere. I'm not speaking about Mith now and whatever faulty and questionable things she's said; I'm just analysing your vote. You've voiced suspicion for her twice just before voting, but never before. Were there just way too many people having Kit on their suspect list for you to care about her being lynched? And you would look better for your eleventh jour change of heart.

As soon as there are people voting Kit, you're out of it, though she has been one of your top suspects.

Your first post toDay (340):

Quote:
Way to go Lommy! I suspected Mith already yesterDay mainly because of the way she could be seen trying to help Lottie (while no one else did - and there are still two of her mates around!) and I have also felt a bit uneasy with some of her wolf's POV speculations, not that that couldn't or shouldn't be done, but they have been kind of "detailed" one wouldn't expect from an ordo.
In other words, "thank you Lommy for giving me another good reason to back up my vote".

And there's your change of heart about me after I voiced my suspicion. I recall you thought me an innocent. Now you suspect both me and Greenie (though she has been on your ist longer than I). Why? For not liking the way you post?

Moreover, your post that I quoted above is just too passionate. However feeble this reason is, it's weighing the scale down.


And speaking of Mith: she has posted very little of content toDay, but a lot of high emotions. Makes me wonder. But I think her reasoning is very valid.


This took me waaaaay too long. I'm late!!

++Nog

I'm eating socks and hats tomorrow if he's innocent. Deal?

Edit: xed since the post I quoted

Where is everybody???

Time to sleep as the alarm is on 5½ hours.


++ Mithalwen

I just can't see how the other wolves would have left Lottie to die that alone, and as I doubt Lommy or Legate are wolves (this is no guaranteed innocent-pass, but at the moment I have no reason to suspect them for sacrifying their mate either + they generally make a lot of sense) it looks clear the only one trying to do something about the situation was Mith.

Interestingly enough that would mean the last wolf would be someone who vote earlier (Eomer or Greenie) or then Nilp... or Sally, or...

Well, nice to see you... although it would've been nicer to see a bit more from you... there have been questions like how much did you read of the thread when you were posting yesterDay...

Together with the Kit-controversy ('oh, it's a throwaway, except for that everybody else wants to vote her too') yesterDay now toDay saying 'I suspect only those who already have votes' sounds, well, rather bad.

I mean, if Bom is a Wolf who always comes once per Day, votes for whomever seems that they might be lynched, and leaves, then that's what I don't call a good way to do it. Just saying. Seriously, Bom, if you are innocent (but actually even if you are not), it would be nice to have some more input from you, if it is only a tiny little bit possible.

No problem. Didn't mean to flip out on you, if that was it came across as! Now let's continue playing as if nothing happened.

Bom, could you explain why you thought a vote for Kitanna is a throwaway vote?

++Mithalwen

I think I've made it pretty clear already why I suspect her. You can almost add me to the sock-eating club if she's innocent... (Although didn't I join already? )

Anyway, good night, I have to wake up early-ish tomorrow too...

To those who are questioning my vote yesterday: I knew some people were suspicious of Kitanna, but I honestly did not know that that many people were planning on voting for her. Also, I was desperate (as I've said, I was under the mistaken impression that I had to vote right now).

Anyway,

++Nogrod

I don't know, I'm just generally suspicious of him, moreso than I am of anybody else.

I stand by what I said. Was seriously tempted to self vote to escape but I have a duty to stay alive. Haven't pulled out of a game yet but really.
