I suppose that depends on what happens later when more people have voted. Knowing the village (and the wolves' careful scheming), they'll probably manage to muddle it up so that our vote somehow ties it!

You thought I was exaggerating for the sake of humor when I made fun of the Living earlier- about discussing for no reason and holding their votes...

Nope. Not exaggerating. They're really that bad.

Morm has two votes now. He'll have to organize a counter-wagon.

It'd be really nice if it's against Form.

REMAINING VOTERS:

Formendacil
satansaloser2005
McCaber
Boromir88
Eomer of the Rohirrim
mormegil
Shastanis Althreduin
Mithalwen

VOTED:

Kath -> Morm
Lommy -> Morm (2)

Does anyone have a list of which way the remaining voters are likely to vote? That might be helpful if the leanings are strong enough.

Quite a many voiced their suspicion on morm.

Boro might be one gaining a few votes, but I'm not sure if enough to make a tie there.

Need to think before voting though. Numbers.

So to be sure 5 votes is needed.

Nerwen is not granted. How about Nilp?

Rune might of course apear but probably not...

Legate can be awaken to vote if needed.

So we could have 3-4 European votes for Lommy. If we vote and leave, that leaves four of you (phantom, Rikae, Firefoot and Nilp) with two known wolves, as Nerwen, Rune and Lalaith are unlikely to turn up.

If you decide to go for Lommy in the end, all good.

If however an extra vote for morm would tie the lynch, we shouldn't vote as then the wolves could jump on our Lommy vote and tie it.

So should we abstain then?

Or give her like one European vote to be on the safe side?

edit: xed since my last

Right- three known Wolves could mess things up. Technically cannot count on either Rikae or Nog.

Firefoot and I WILL be here at the finish. Nilp will be (or I will be very cross with him). That gives us three. Then we need either Legate or Agan to give us knowns equaling unknowns (and the innocent of Rikae/Nog will swing it our way).

(xpost: didn't see Nog vote)

Well you can count on me. I already voted - and am going to bed.

My last question just is: do you want another vote for Lommy or not?

Okay, so, if both Nog and Green go for Lommy and we are desperate to change it at the finish.

Worst case: Mac-Lal-Lottie-Rikae pile on to give Lommy 6. Firefoot, Nilp, Agan, Legate, and I cannot overcome them.

And another question: are you really sure you want to put getting the message through in doubt for a possibility there is a tie in the living thread?

There could be, yes, but how probable is that with only two or three wolves left there (and not necessary on the same side)?

A penguin taming a bear sounds like something from a Disney movie.

Also, my love is being smart and dangling McCaber and Boro in front of the Wolves. Such wanton disregard for the welfare of others. <3

Three wolves there, is my guess - both packs still represented. If there's no lynch today but two kills tonight, the village may be at 5-3 tomorrow. Which is not good, even if the 3 are in different packs.

Good point. But why do you think two kills? And wouldn't Boro then take off morm making it 5-2 and they would know then Form is a wolf aka 5-1 the next Day?

I wouldn't bet on Lalaith not appearing (not betting on her appearing either, but let's not assume too much).

I think a second Lommy vote won't hurt even if a change of plans is needed so just to be on the safe side -

tp: Legate is asleep and I'm going to be as well.

If you have a vote for him in five minutes I can wake him up, but otherwise he will not vote toDay. Sorry.

I think I kind of asked some half an hour ago whether you'd start making new plans?

I migh have voted Lommy like two hours ago and gone to sleep as it looks you guys have totally new plans...
