Kuru? Dead? But how can that be?
Well, I’ll take a look at his posts, but first…
In an attempt to avoid homework I went back to review everything after Bergil’s death. I went through everyone’s votes and came up with the following.
Bergil: Was the first to vote and he voted for Wilwa on the basis that her previous post did not take as long as she had claimed. Perhaps this vote seemed rash to the other villagers and thus sealed his fate.
Glirdan: He voted for Eonwe and had been targeting Eonwe as a suspect in most of his posts. He said he wasn’t satisfied with Eonwe’s defense, but also that his vote was random for the most part.
Wayne: Was the first to vote for Bergil and he also voiced suspicions about Glirdan. It appears he found both their votes odd. Now he did vote early on which is not as wolfish as waiting until the last minute. But many had already voiced concerns about Bergil by this point so the wolfish thing to do would be to cast the first stone and hope others follow…and in this case they did.
Firefoot: Voted for Lalaith. She mentions a few people who do not sit right with her or who she’d like to hear more from. She says her vote for Lalaith is just a feeling.
Tar: Puts in a vote for Anguriel. She says:

In the end, his net of suspicion is cast just a little too wide. I've got an unsubstantiated, first-DAY feeling that he's trying to divert our attention from something.

Also casts her suspicions on lmp and calls for more weighted posts from Wayne, Wilwa, Lalaith and Bergil.
lmp: Had said earlier he was suspicious of tar and then voted for her. He says she does not sit right with him, but he suspects Bergil as well. Also mentions Anguriel and his odd comment about nothing truly worthwhile being said on DAY one.
Anguriel: Votes for Wayne. In his actual vote post he didn’t really give his reason, but he had stated earlier that he would probably vote for Wayne because of Wayne’s short, rare, and usually unhelpful comments.
Celuien: Next in line to vote for Wayne and judging by the time between her post and Anguriel’s it was probably not a cross-post and it defiantly put Wayne in the lead. She mentioned Bergil as well so whoever she voted for would have garnered a second vote and put them ahead. Take from that what you will.
Me: I voted Celuien in a somewhat random drawing. I listed people I thought should stay alive for their reasonable posts.
Kath: Puts in the second vote for Wilwa. She finds Wilwa overly defensive and I agree and I will get to that in a moment. Asks for more from Wayne or she will vote for him tomorrow.
Wilwa: Is angered by Bergil’s vote for her because she disagrees with his reason. Causing a three-way tie. (though it appears she cross-posted so to her it would only have been a two-way tie between Bergil and Wayne) But to return to her defense and attack on Bergil. She says of course votes will be random, but she doesn’t approve of the random reason and vote of Bergil. Her defense seems somewhat…er…I don’t know what word I’m looking for, but I do find it odd. It appears she voted for Bergil simply because he voted for her. Now that can mean she is a wolf and he hit the nail on the head or she was just an innocent upset over his reason of making her seem guilty to the village.
Eonwe: Votes for Kath. Just seems to be random and drew Kath out because of the number she was on the list. Says he has nothing for day one.
Lalaith: Breaks the tie and seals Bergil’s fate. Mentions a shaky faith in Eonwe. Now she says she feels bad for Wilwa after reading her plea and usually wolves try to distance themselves from their fellow wolves on day one. Of course since wolves expect us to think that of them it is possible that Lalaith was drawing wolven comrade Wilwa closer to because wolves normally separate themselves. Or perhaps an innocent piggybacking a wolf.
Menel and Kuru did not vote. Menel, perhaps a reason as to why?
My suspect list:
Wilwa~ For her defense and plea against Bergil’s vote. It seemed as though she was doing all she could to throw off suspicion of herself. Then of course her vote for Bergil.
Wayne~ As the first to cast a vote for Bergil it is possible he tried to get others to follow because several had mentioned Bergil’s vote as strange and his reason too random.
And a distant third Lalaith
Lalaith~ for what could be taken as an attempt to save wolf fellow Wilwa from the noose. Though that is not the best reason which is why she is far down from Wilwa and Wayne.
Now there are a few others I will be watching, but for right now I am more concerned with those three I listed. I'm going to review all that Kuru said and all that as already been said today and I'll come back in a bit.
