Kit, one of those Oddwen quotes is credited to me. I never voted for Lalaith.

But I may.... Before I tackle Roa's posts, here's a few fly by opinions of people based on what I would do were I the EW. It's arranged from most desirable to least:

morm -- I'd want him. Does anyone else come across as level-headed as morm? I think not. And though he always seems to garner some suspicion, he generally takes a while to lynch, and the lorebooks show that he's almost always been innocent. Which means that we have virtually no record of Evil Morm action.

Lalaith -- Maybe it's just me, but she always exudes pleasant and innocent vibes. Granted, my lorebooks are quite sketchy on Evil Lalaiths, but that's why I would want her.

Kitanna -- Kind of the same as morm, she makes very level headed posts, is not given to bouts of snippiness or oddity. It's all about the personality. I don't actually think she's a wolf, but I didn't think Valier was a wolf either, so wot do I know. I only know who I'd want if I were Roa.

Eomer -- 'cause he's so cute. Hmm... good thing LMP didn't pick me to be a Wizard, I operate randomly. Somehow I doubt Roa would pick based on this.

Kath -- I've seen Evil Kath in action and she's good. Also, if I was to pick morm, it would amuse me to put him and Kath together. However she was evil quite recently according to the lorebooks, which decreases her desirablity.

Oddwen -- Slippery. When people don't know what to make of a person, in a large village they tend to be avoided.

Azaelia -- that sig makes SUCH a good defense.

Sleepy -- He's one of the quiet people like Alcarillo and Naria, and in a large bustling villlage these people can survive for a long time. Naria had an unlucky night death largely thanks to the Watchers, and Alcarillo lasted what I would consider a long time.

Glirdan -- See Sleepy. The only reason I rank him lower than Sleepy in desirablness is because I've seen people jump his ship a little too often in the lorebooks. He's been innocent each time, but still.

Eonwe -- See Glirdan and Sleepy. Ranked lower because I'm not as familiar with his playing style and wouldn't be sure quite what to expect.

JennyHallu -- she's a good middle-posting player... however the both times she was evil (that my lorebooks have on record) she died early, so I actually would have shied away from her this game. She was evil too recently and a lot of people have fresh lorebook entries on Evil Jenny.

PS - Happy 21st to Jenny. Get snoggered and post here. It will be amusing.

Fea -- See Oddwen for pros, see lorebooks for cons. She's known as Seer-bait.

Spawn -- My impression has been that Seers salivate over her. I'm actually surprised she's gone this long with being dreamt of, though that might be explained by the sparodic Seer action.

Anyway, that's my thoughts. If I was the recently ashified EW, you would do well to be lynching Morm, Lal, Kitanna and Eomer forwith.

The rub is that Roa and I think rather differently. We're both loud, but as you can see on the points where we rub up against each other, we're loud in different ways. Roa advocates logic and serious analysis, I'm quite a bit more free flowing and out-there in my idea process. I'm not shy to come up with odd theories like the importance of Loki's secret friend and the possibility of the wolves knowing each other. I'm not sure what kinds of ideas Roa comes up with, actually, come to think of it, she spent a lot of time poking holes in others' ideas. Well, I suppose I should hold off on this till I do that long awaited scouring of her posts... but for now I think the people we'd be thinking most alike on are my top picks -- Morm, Kitanna, and Lal. The sensible types. We've already killed a couple silent types (Naria, Alc) and a couple of the loud out-there types (Nog and Val). So as I see it, we could go after people that fit into those two types, or we could explore the possibilty of her going for more variety and including some more modest types. (I'm a variety person myself.) Now, morm, Lal, and Kit aren't exactly quiet people, they're not as ostentatiously loud as Nog, Val, or myself. So I count them as "more modest types."

A quick question while it's on my mind -- Morm, you seem to be fluctuating on Kath. One moment she's clearly evil and then another you don't have the feeling she's guilty. So which is it? And why?
