Just couldn’t get any sleep and decided to see what’s happening. Just a few remarks.

Roa: aren’t you kind of contradicting yourself in words and deeds? First you say (in concerto with Firefoot), that we should see to Folwren’s texts, whether they would reveal a reason for her death. Then you say, that if you were a wulf and had been suspected by Folwren, it would have been like saying "Look at me! I'm a wolf!"! So what do you think you could find from there?

Now I do doubt your (and Firefoot’s) reasons in emphasizing this study of Folwren’s sayings. After all, she was not the seer, and died very untimely. Remember, she was not with us after the very first hours of the second day – when basically nothing happened, and said herself, that she couldn’t vote, because she had only first day impressions! But surely, those first day impressions were positive towards Firefoot (maybe due to earlier games, knowing she is a skillful player with whom it is nice to play and sad to see dying the very first days with no good reasons), and kind neutral or even releasing towards Roa. And she had some first-day suspicions against a couple of others. Leaning on her, this time quite un-informed shoulders, you would play it safe? I don’t blame you for that. It’s intelligent.

Firefoot: you say

Um, do you really think that if I was a wolf I would be so foolish to put my fellow wolves on my innocent list? I would call any wolf that did that brave, stupid, or both.
This surely puzzles me a bit too. But then again, I totally agree with you, when you say, that “the game is running strongly in their favor”, and that “the odds are looking very good for the wolves right now”. Maybe some overconfidence? An idea of getting a “total victory” with all the wolves alive and kicking? That would be some fame! And the situation sure looks so bad, that the wolves could have a realistic run for that one... for we villagers really have played horribly – and even luck seems to have turned it’s back to us.

As a newbie to this game here, I can’t say how frequent way of behaving it is to say, after making a mistake or hasty decisions, that that kind of thing, done deliberately, would be foolish. Well, what else could one say in such situation? At least you both cling to that argument. Again, in concerto.

Sorry for being a bit aggressive, but we should really get something out from this mess. Of the seven active writers, three are werewolves. And if we must consider Jenny being very much distracted by RL, it makes the arena 50-50. So we have to be tougher now against each other. To find the wolves, and to prove the innocents.
