Shield Messy argumentative post coming up

I'm surprised. I really am. I will do my best to respond to the suspicion placed on me today. I will say that it's funny how only one person really suspected me in the first two days and then — overnight — many villagers are mentioning my name.

About Lhuna: I was wrong. I thought there was a good chance that she was a wolf, and I was wrong. The whole Oh Glirdan! You're probably innocent but what can I do? act appeared very wolvish to me. I was just as wrong as several villagers; it just so happens that my target's identity was revealed before theirs.


SPM follows Spawn's lead and makes a case against me (I wonder if this was arranged last night). He mentions that my suggestion that wolves will be slightly 'timid' and 'extremely friendly' was worrying, as it's problematic to assume wolf-categories. I agree with this, but neither Spawn nor SPM point out that I said Please debate with me in that post. Day One — let's get talking, please! It was hardly the cleverest post but I don't think it's worth all this bother.

Re. Addressing the question of unity between Tar and Spawn to SPM: SPM had previously said that Tar's random vote for me was odd, especially considering her suspicion of Spawn. I addressed it to SPM because I thought he'd be the villager most likely to care and respond (which he did, eventually).

About my supposed 'mild suspicions' of Formendacil and Mormegil: I was (and I know I'll be jeered for saying this) trying to be helpful. Yes, that's right. I was trying to be a help to the village. You see, while a lot of people are going crazy and throwing around rash accusations hither and thither around LMP, Boromir88, Garin, etc. I've been staying out of that mess and looking at the slightly less obvious villagers.

I do see how that can be seen as wolvish, think that if you will; but I will absolutely not apologise for not screaming accusations. I raise suspicion without 'pressing it home'? I'm sorry but I do not understand what's being asked of me here. My main target for the first two days was Lhuna. I was content with my target then, and happy enough to question others.

Today, though, I do have a new target. Oh yes, I wonder if you can guess who it is...

Farael was a safe target? Blimey. You suggest a new way of looking at things and you get people jumping at your throat. I guess that's Werewolf for you.


The most wolvish thing about me was indeed my shrill defence at Spawn's accusation. That's just the way I am, though. I can't help but come across as a bit of a *insert obscenity here* when playing this game.

One more point, and this is something I resent highly. This continued allegation that I am being unhelpful. What exactly can I say to that? Have I caught a wolf? No. So, in that way, I guess you could say that I haven't offered great help to this poor village. So, at the risk of sounding sarcastic, I urge all villagers to flock to the exceedingly helpful dancing spawn of ungoliant and trust to her judgment; considering how very helpful she has been to you all.


Again, I can't help but come across as annoying, pedantic and exasperated when I defend myself. But this wave of suspicion has me somewhat perplexed.

More soon.
