Ugh. I don't like the choices on this lynch list. Not particularly suspicious of any of them.
Brinn would be my least worst choice but it sticks in the craw to have my vote dictated by a cobbler.
If I vote for Legate will I be throwing away my vote?

That appears to have been the effect of the vote, for sure. No one else has voted Brinn.

Problem I'm having is not just the QT vote, but after Brinn's initial comments about Rikae's death pointing to her, she's moved on to other people. Mac's been more insistent on the Rikae kill framing him.

Of those who currently have votes. I do not want to vote Lommy, Inzil or Huey.

I'm perturbed by Lhuna, quite a lot. Despite the bad feelings, I always worry about voting for someone and starting a bandwagon against someone unable to be here to "defend" xemself. Even though, based on Lhuna's own logic 1 vote a bandwagon does not make.

I'm probably giving too much consideration to the QT vote of Brinn. As others have said G55 wouldn't know Brinn's allegiance either way, so could just be an attempt to throw us off.

I've said nothing about Mac, because everyone else has said quite a lot. He looks the suspicious and paranoid part and then he doesn't. His vote for Lommy doesn't feel right, but could be from I just don't find Lommy suspicious.

I appointed myself the tallyist since I voted early but am still hanging around

Lommy -> Macalaure
Kath -> Inzil
Lhuna -> Lommy
Macalaure -> Lommy 2
QT -> Brinniel
Greenie -> Macalaure 2
Legate -> Huinesoron
Huinesoron -> Macalaure 3
Rune -> Loslote

But what does she know? Why put any weight on Gal's guesses of who the wolves are, if they even are her guesses? I think she just wants to cause chaos by adding a controversial player to the mix. Which doesn't really say anything about Brinn.

Sure. Apropos of anything else, I just feel like G55 voted Brinn in hopes that no one else would, and I perversely want to test that because I am a contrarian and a gambler. Whether I think Brinn is a decent QT (I do) and whether G55 does (who knows/cares?) is entirely independent of that.

So we're all aware, I'm aware that G55 is uninformed. The whole point of the Cobbler role is to aid the wolves, though, and to do that, you have to take a stab at finding them - the Cobbler is going to be doing the same exercises in deduction we are, just for opposite reasons.

It's an interesting situation. G55 obviously doesn't know for sure who the wolves are, but she can think she does. And you're right, that doesn't actually matter. But I just have a feeling G55's using the QT vote on Brinn is designed to make us not vote there, and because she's evil, I want to do the opposite.

I'm not saying I will, I'm saying I want to (and I might.)

Well now it hardly matters, anyway - the choice is Hui or Mac. So now I'm gonna stare at who's voting who for a moment.

That's what I was trying to figure out. Knowing Brinn wouldn't vote for herself.

++Mac

Edit: crossed with Brinn's vote and crossed with all those other votes that ended in a tie at the moment. Wow

Ok, with the vote count looking as it is, it looks like it's going to have to be:
