I know that things look a might odd for me. I defended my girl on the first day and was hesitant to vote for Nogrod. With a record of defending what turned out to be two wolves, I must look like the evil wizard.

I wonder. Was there anyone else who defended them? Assuming that Naria was not a newly changed wolf (and being quiet, I'd assume she was one of the original wolves), someone who defended both over the first two days could be the EW. Only the EW knew that they were both wolves, after all. Something for me to look into.
See the problem with that is the EW probably didn't defend both (or maybe even one) of the wolves. You say your defending two known wolves makes you look suspicious, but you put out that we should search for others that did the same thing. That's just inviting trouble for yourself.
Assuming Naria and Nogrod were both wolves from the start I doubt the EW mentioned both together in the same post (as possible wolves or innocents). But if we assume one of them was changed into a wolf on the second night we should look at villagers who defended one on one day and defended the other the other day. Which also seems to point in Celuien's direction.
I'm leaning toward the innocence of Celuien, maybe because she's my dear old mom, or maybe because she put in the first post today throwing suspicions her way early, that seems like a pretty risky move for EW Celuien. We shall see how this day goes.

I went back and did my own research on Eomer, and I found that Morm was right: Eomer seems alarmingly obsessed with the EW
With most other villagers I would say it is far too reckless to always make statements about what "I would do if I were the guilty party", but in the case of Eomer it is too dangerous too ignore. He has a terrible history of bluffing his way out of trouble.

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.

Well, if he was the EW, of course he wouldn't be eager to see Nogrod die. But I know from my lorebooks that Eomer is not at all averse to dispensing with his own comrades to make himself look better - and he would certainly be able to afford it, in a game like this, always making new minions.
Knowing he can always make new wolves and using the fact he helped in ridding us of Nogrod, Eomer will try to warm us over with the logic "I helped cast a deciding vote for Nogrod at a pivotal time in the voting process, how could I be the EW?" I've seen this logic from him before and if he really is the EW, no doubt he will be trying it again.

I can see Eomer as the EW and all that Morm has said makes me suspect him even more, but I'm not completely convinced yet. When I see Eomer's reaction today I'm sure my mind will be clearer on the matter.
In any case I feel Morm is most likely an innocent. Just a feeling though.

Oddwen looked pretty suspicious to me yesterday as well, but after Naria's attempt to shift things her direction, I believe she is innocent.
Mmm interesting, but I don't think it completely clears Oddwen. If Oddwen is a wolf Naria wouldn't really know, so she could have picked someone who had already gained suspicions and just tried to put everyone's attention on them. I look forward to whatever Oddwen has to say today.

To be continued...
