I'm not sure, actually. I get that you might be afraid of helping the evil side by doing so.

And look, I'm not getting any particular bad vibes from you, Kuru... it's just, well, what I said about the wolves' likely strategy of trying to discredit targets means I don't think I can just let this go.

Can I put it this way: do you truly, honestly have a theory that would account for two false claims and no counterclaims? You don't have to explain it, just "yes" or "no".

Edit: x'd with Lalaith.

[Nerwen]

I'll follow suit
++Lottie for rep.

[Nerwen]

Lalaith, we don't actually have to lynch anyone.
Edit: x'd with Lommy.

[Nerwen]

One thing I agree with Lommy about is the mock-lynches:

So:

++Zil for the lynch.

Though it might be better to refrain altogether.

Edit: x'd with Kuru.

[Nerwen]

Okay, that makes me feel better about you, Kuru.

I'd like to say again, though, that there is a real possibility that the Herbalist is very short of supplies and will need to sacrifice some people. Thus, I am certainly not counting on being saved.

However, the main thing is that if I die I will be a known innocent toMorrow; if I live a 99% likely one. Either way, I hope the village will take a good hard look at the people who climbed on Lottie's far-fetched theory toDay, especially the ones bolstering it by muttering vaguely about how I'm "fishy" or "sketchy". (Kuru gets a bit of a pass for having actually had a concrete reason, though I think I've explained that adequately.)

Edit:x'd with Zil.

[Nerwen]

I am not really telling Lottie how to vote, Zil- it sounds as if she will go for the no-lynch option, which as I said might be best at this point. What I am doing is making my preference clear. See, the difference is that I have some rather definite and well-reasoned, non-opportunistic suspicions of you, which I have set out (I believe) clearly and logically. It is not just a case of "OMGUS".

[Loslote]

I would probably go for a non-lynch at present, because while I think we've had a lot of friction this afterNoon which has brought a lot of interesting points to light, I don't think they have led to a generally agreed upon candidate. Unless matters change, I think last Night's Herbalist save has bought the village more time, and I think avoiding over hasty lynches really does need to be avoided in this game.

That being said, Zil has seemed...off balance all game. I don't necessarily know if that seems wolvish - if I recall correctly, he tends towards being overly smooth as a wolf, doesn't he? Off balance isn't something I'm used to seeing from him, and I'm not sure how to read it. I wouldn't lynch him toDay, but I would keep an eye on him in future.

Lommy has also struck me as a little bit more go-with-the-flow than I think I remember from her, but again, not enough for concrete suspicion at this point.

I'm inclined to trust Legate and Kuru, but I almost feel like they are too good to be true right now - active, helpful, making good points, and I agree with most of what they're saying? Gotta be wolves. Seriously, though, I don't suspect them even a little, and I find myself having to remind myself not to trust them too far.

Boro, Shasta, and Lalaith are all total toss ups at this point, which is concerning, since Lalaith at least has been posting. I'm wary about how under the radar she's flying, and I want to take a closer look at her later.

Nerwen looks better to me now - I think her early posts pinged my radar just because they were so overdramatic, which apparently is necessary, since not everyone was 100% clear on my reveal yesterDay, even though I thought it was very clear myself. I would definitely not lynch her.

tldr: I would consider Zil or Lalaith if I see some sort of conclusive evidence against them, but if nothing new comes up, I would probably not lynch anyone toDay to keep the village's numbers up and Gifteds safe.

I think you jumped on Lottie's suggestion veeery quickly...

Ah. I say I agree with Lottie about you, which you see as suspicious, then you vote her for rep, and put me up for a mock lynch.

Who's railroading who now?

++Loslote for rep please.

Thank you, Lalaith for voting. I was beginning to worry you had fallen asleep on us.

Yes.

How about this:

"O Great and Wise 'erbalist, we thy 'umble charges express our great gratitude to thee for last NIGHT's good work. I, Kuruharan, son of Khoreth of Durin's Folk do 'umbly beseech thee to 'eal Nerwen of the Folk of Oz of whatever foul disease 'ath smote 'er. Unless, of course, McCaber the Absent happens to appear and claim to be sick.

I do beseech this with 'and on 'eart and in all sincerity in spite of my funny accent, which just seemed too amusing not to adopt.

Unless, of course, being Great and Wise you 'ave a better idea."

And I mean every word of it...which will hopefully further set Lottie's mind at rest about me too.

Now...on the subject of Lottie I would happily vote for her right now...except I would really like some idea of what she will vote for because there are some potential lynch victims I will absolutely not support.

And I'd prefer not to lynch anybody today.

Xed with some additional votes
