Thanks so much. I did give you all that opening, though, without intending to.

Heh, I couldn't believe you and I were tying up like that, when I knew I was innocent. That's really the only reason I suspected you, until you doubted Steve's reveal. Looking at it objectively, I can see why you were skeptical though. I just had a reason to believe him you lacked. At least I didn't vote for you.

When I awoke after that Day ended, I couldn't believe they'd lynched you and let Shasta get away with that! Innocents! But it all turned out to the good.

I'm curious to know what Lommy's role would have been had she joined the wolves.

Shasta (in Night PM): no. way. You're like a Seer who dreams of everyone at once regardless of alignment!!!

Legate: from a dead innocent's POV you looked pretty bad after Eonwe's reveal, and if I was alive I would probably have voted you. Only your last posts sounded innocent, so I started thinking along the lines of "maybe not a spy...?" And I was banging my head against the wall when you turned out to be innocent. Next time we play together I'll keep the innocent-180 in mind.

That was big time wolf-on-wolf, whatever the strategy was, so kudos for that. Without the "seer machine-gun fire" I think you would have made it. I was really surprised with myself, actually, for suspecting Nog, because usually all one has to do to find out people's roles is take my impressions list and invert all the opinions. (ie the ones I suspect are innocent, and the ones I feel good about are the wolves). Pitch and Shasta, I didn't suspect you until you revealed. Boro - I didn't suspect you either, but I guess after falling into your sneaky trap the last time you were a wolf I tend to be a bit paranoid when it comes to making an opinion about you.

Amazing job, wolves! Hats off to you!

A few more things. Firstly, it seems I've been giving out many reputation points lately, so I'm not allowed to give any out for the next day or so. So my apologies, unrepped ones! (though not for long, hopefully )

I have a question to Shasta. What was the motive behind the Bom-wagon?

And Lottie -

These things only happen coincidentally. Ironically, there was some suspicion for this post.

Believe it or not, I was mostly transparent there. My feelings on people that just throw their votes away Day 1, and on non-participants, are fairly well-documented by now, and I went about the Bom-wagon just as I would have as an innocent. There was a bit of wolvish motivation, though - I was a bit concerned that the Finns might turn on Boro very late in the day, so I tool steps to prevent that from happening.

I think I can answer that without consulting it from Shasta.

Did you think he was being true to his character as a person? Did you think he looked principaled and innocentish doing that run after Bom? Did you think a wolf would not expose himself like that as it would turn out Bom was innoent?

If you answered even waveringly 'yes' to any of the questions, then you have your answer...


EDIT: X'd with Shasta - sorry.

Eruhen has just left Hobbiton.
Shasta, you're seriously starting to creep me out. How many small forest animals did you have to sacrifice to get that power?

I'm sure he's full of glee at reading this.

PS: Shasta: your plan worked well.

I suppose that depends on what you consider a "small forest animal"...

I guess we just have to count how many times you've chatted or went off topic on threads... Or ask Esty how many of her subjects she's lost to you...

She would have had an optional (and, again, unreliable) Night-kill.
