To all innocent villagers who have not yet voted:
I know that I am usually one for spreading out the votes, but I would suggest that those villagers who are innocent cast their vote either for Eomer or for me. Because, if neither of us is eliminated, we are going to go through this whole Eomer v SpM thing again to-Morrow. And, if to-Day's lynchee turns out to be innocent, you cannot afford to make a mistake to-Morrow.
To-Day, you can afford to make a mistake. That mistake would be to vote for me, but at least it would point you in the right direction for to-Morrow. So, I would rather that you cast your vote for me than for someone who may well turn out to be innocent and then have to go through this whole thing again to-Morrow. Of course, I would advise you to vote for Eomer, but it is for you to make up your minds.
I think that it's a fairly safe bet, from your point of view, that either Eomer or SpM is a Wolf, so I would counsel you to choose between us.
Incidentally, I would not be quite so forthright in offering this advice if I strongly suspected Alcarillo, the only other candidate for lynching who has been put forward so far to-Day. But I have no reason to strongly suspect Alcarillo, other than for his quietness. And that's a trait shared by a number of villagers. I would regard a vote for Alcarillo to-Day as risky.
