Well I'm not sure what to say. Well done phantom but you will be missed. The GW was incredibly intelligent to listen to the phantom's advice. As of yesterday he was still screaming innocence to me and when he suggested to the GW to turn him into the hunter I thought it a brilliant strategy. However, he will be sorely missed as he had a good mind for these things and I'm glad he picked Naria because she wasn't on any of my lists...her low post count contributed to that.

Sadly I had an observation that I wanted phantom to analyze before I said anything but I may end up being open about it or I may send it to somebody else who may understand it. The way in which I had it worded would have made sense to the phantom and few, if any others.

Also another observation is that the voting record is not entirely trust worthy, as it has been pointed out by others the wolves probably don't know who each other is and therefore may actually vote for their fellows. I realize that this includes me but it must be said. Now a EW may have voted for Nogrod but likely that would have been towards the end which makes me think... Well anyway we need to determine what type of EW we have on our hands and if it's who I think then they may have voted for Nogrod.

Well looking over the list of who I could ask to think on my observation I cannot see an equal to the phantom so I will defer and be plain. I got consider Eomer of the Rohirrim last night, not in jest as I did the first day but in ernest. There are a handful of items that really stick out to me and worth mentioning. He constantly mentions "if I were the EW" I would do this or convert this person, oddly he's been very accurate. He also has been using the shield icon rather frequently, as we know this can be used to indicate some status. It might be coincidence but perhaps he's trying to communicate something, he wouldn't be so obvious as to use the 'evil' symbols but rather a good symbol. Eomer is a brazen character and wouldn't shirk at the thought of killing off his wolves, looking at the vote for Nogrod indicates he did just that. This is perfectly in sync with the modus operandi of Eomer and would make a good choice for the EW for multiple reasons.

1. He doesn't let pressure get to him and remains calm
2. He is intelligent and can pull off bluffs like few others can
3. He is sensible enough to work on his own and accomplish his means.
4. He's a great bad guy

My other suspicions stand from yesterday though I'm thinking that Naria was not the wolf from last night otherwise the phantom wouldn't have identified her. I still would like to hear from Alcarillo on his extreme defensiveness yesterday when no real suspicion had been presented yet on him.
