Indeed. Another good point against Lote. The village is getting quieter and quieter by the day. Without much to choose between a number of possible Ducks, I think that the village is best served by keeping the more talkative villagers, in preference to the quieter ones.

And I still find the case against Lote to be the most compelling. Her vote for Nilp on Day 1 is explicable either by her (wrongly) seeing it as a safe Duck-on-Duck vote or by her not in fact being a Duck at that time and only becoming one that Night.

This looks quite likely to me, particularly given JennyH's reaction to the Mith/Glirdan situation. I think that the Ducks wanted to try to get Mith lynched yesterday.

My mind is made up.
