I've been waiting until I had something to say that was beside agreeing or disagreeing with others. And now it seems it is time.

It seems Bergil has voted for Wilwa because her "post did not take 33 minutes to write". Now not to call Wilwa innocent or Bergil guilty, but I can imagnine her post taking 33 minutes to write. I've written rather short posts like that and it's taken me a long time for whatever reason (phone calls, sometimes I forget where I was going and have to reread everyone's posts, other such things) so that is why I don't doubt it took Wilwa so long. But I won't throw down anything on Bergil because of his early vote and, what seems like, the randomness of it. Not yet anyway. There are other things to look at first. But like many others I would like to hear again from Bergil on why.

lmp~ his idea for a leader is not such a bad one. But I think we should wait until DAY 2, or even DAY 3, when there is more for us to go off of in picking a leader. Of course like all plans though if we choose wrong then we are out of luck for that day.
Quote:
A: give a wolf more of a chance to influence us if we choose him/her as our leader
B: cause us to quickly lynch him/her if he/she turns out to be wrong. Good if the leader is a wolf, bad if the leader is just a misguided innocent, really bad if the leader is a gifted.
Menel you make a good point, but most strategies we will have as a village will have downsides like this. I think it may be worth a shot on DAY 2 or 3. If it leads us down diasterous path then of course we should not try it again. There are dangers involved in bandwagoning, voting randomly, and lmp's leader plan.

Glirdan~ He has me quite confused to be honest. His first post was of course random. Then he goes after Eonwe, lmp, and Bergil. I understand his reasoning behind Bergil, but his Eonwe and lmp reasonings are where I am not sure what to think. He is changing his mind rather quickly with lmp. First he casts his eye on lmp and his plan. As well as Eonwe for supporting lmp's plan. But he does say lmp is the most suspicious in his eyes. Then in his next post he is quick to remove much of his suspicions from lmp and put them on Eonwe. Now I can take this two ways. 1) Glirdan is innocent and has truly changed his mind and sees Eonwe as more of a threat than lmp. 2) He is a wolf and he is changing his mind quickly because he wants to find an innocent to latch on too. Now I am quite inclined to believe number one, mainly because his quick change of opinion draws attention which is not what a wolf would want. But I will also take into account a clever wolf will use such a tactic because the village would not expect it. I will continue to watch him for now.

Not much else for me to say. I wish I had more helpful things to say.
