Bahh the terror

And more terror

Terminate.

Just a minor, technical note that Lommy has yet to be "confirmed".

And then there's all the posts against Shasta. I don't really know what to think about it - it seems a little too serious to be a wolf-on-wolf, but would it be better being a wolf-on-innocent, with (until today) Shasta being the more probable to go first? I don't know.

Looking at this? I don't know. I think that since Boro confused sally and G55 it could mean that sally's innocent. In general he talks only a little about any of us. He states some kind of a pre-attack for both Pitch and Lottie (as in, I have something against this person, will clarify later), which in Pitch's case turns out to be the rant-post he didn't like (he didn't continue pursuing him after saying that) and with Lottie it just dies out.

I think it's a real stretch to say that quote from Boro is a point for Sally's innocence. Looks to me more like Boro was merely using a "fex" there.

As for Shasta, like I said, there are three Spies left, and the odds are pretty well in favor of seeing some wolf-on-wolf. I won't give people an automatic all-clear just because they said something negative about Nog (or Boro), and vice-versa.

I'll bring over my three cats and we'll really see some fur fly.

Before I forget (not that it matters):

inzil: i think that today we can look at her as confirmed by boro's confession. I've been trying to think but i haven't come up with any reason why an innocent boro would give up like that. The acolyte, joining the wolves as a cobbler? And lommy to reveal him to gain trust for tomorrow? I'm going to be worried and reevaluate if lommy's not killed tomorrow. In any case, i think boro gave up a bit too easy - i would probably have joined him in creating some weird scenario about why exactly lommy's doing this. But i can't link his confession to this. Can you think of something? Lack of bolding because i'm writing this from a phone.

To get it over with:

I was just thinking that you had drawn the same conclusions already.

I understand the annoyance, but seriously, to start pleading before any accusations have been made? Looks a tad like overreacting.

I agree with Pitch on this one, I read it quite simply as Boro using Sally as an example. That he doesn't say anything else about her the whole game, though, is a bit alarming. And another thing - if one of Nate and Sally turns out furry, I'm hazarding a guess that the other one is, too.

Yes, it seems easy, but even if Lommy was a wolf (or an evil acolyte - but honestly, if she was given a choice I can't see Lommy siding with the baddies; and if she wasn't, it'd make the game pretty unbalanced) who decided to bus Boro to look good herself, it'd be a rather lousy scheme as we'll find out quickly enough: if she isn't dead toMorrow, we can raise the question of her lying again.

If Lommie is the Acolyte, what happened to Eru? I'll be quite cross if that was a modfire and Nerwen simply refused to tell us.

...what? You mean Boro wasn't a wolf until last Night?

As for Eruhen, I don't know what happened to him any more than you do. My best guess is modfire or resigning from the game. On the other hand, Nerwen did say to me that the game is quite complicated and Eruhen voted me on Day1... But if his death had something to do with me, it would be rather too much in addition to everything else, though.

Okay, in the sally-case there is actually my fail, somehow I myself got mixed up with people and remembered the other name was correct, that is, that Rikae was the one who was asked. Since it wasn't so, I think you are right in saying that it seemed like an example more than anything else. But I think that if he had kept the other name correct (and since the form of the question is pretty similar) I still think it would've looked like he was just forgetting who he was talking to.

And oh yes, that was an overreaction, I know. Following my chain of thought last night it happened thus:

I think that I still had somewhere in the back of my mind the idea of "we can't afford to lynch any more innocents!" from the morning, even though it had since become slightly less certain. Hence I had the vibe that if I'd be lynched, that would be the end of the village.

I had assumed I'd get some suspicion today, partially because I haven't gotten anything this far (and at this point I sure do think that everyone should be suspected), partially because of my second-day small suspicion of Nog and then turning into suspecting Legate more and voting for him. I would've seen that as suspicious if looking from outside, when it turned out Legate wasn't a wolf. I'm actually kinda surprised that for example Lottie (since she seems to be suspecting me most) hasn't brought it up yet, though I guess it might interfere with her argument on me being in the background.

Then comes your Boroalysis. My reaction to it was "Oh, it sure does seem he's somewhat partial. And I haven't really suspected him either, in my head or out loud. It does indeed seem like we have some kind of a connection. I'm going to be seriously annoyed at myself if he turns out to be a wolf, because he has managed to fool me completely".

...and then comes Lommy's revelation. It was a "you've got to be kidding me" -moment, right after that thought process. I guess what I reacted to was more to something that I had in my own head, like, to the idea that would I not know that I'm innocent, I would be really suspecting myself right now. And I just assumed that everyone else went through the same points that I did, and I answered to that.

But thinking a bit more on what I went through yesterday. I think Boro's point against Pitch sounds really far-fetched, argument for the sake of argument. I'm going to want to look at how Pitch reacted to that and in general do some "packmatealysis" - that is, create some Boro-someone combinations and possibly even go to full pack combinations, trying to see the last two packmates. It's two out of six (and from the point of view of every ordo, two out of five excluding self) so it's not too much data to be handled, I'd say. And we'll have the whole tomorrow, and assuming that Lommy gets killed during the night, no surprises from there to be expected either.
