What I have here is what was written before the start of today. Unfortunately my classes are against me timewise and it will be a while until I can look into the death fo Folwren.

After the events of yesterday I went through the thread to look at Nogrod, Jenny, and Volo, to elaborate on my suspicions of them due to their disputes yesterday. Honestly it all seemed slightly more important last night when I was reading through. I still plan on commenting on it, but I’d like to see what this day brings before completely elaborating on it.
Though I will say, and I believe I echo Jenny here, it was interesting for Nogrod to prompt Volo into changing his vote from Mac to Nogrod. He told Volo to remember his retractable vote and to “think about it”. I can’t decide exactly what that means. Trying to lead votes away from Mac or help give Volo an air of suspicion for other voters. I will return to them later.

The important issue in my mind, however, is the voters for Lommy. Mac voted first and well before day ended. Looking at his other top suspects he didn’t seem too convinced of any them. He was the fourth person to vote and (not counting Volo’s retracted vote) and of those voted for; none had received more than one vote.
Menel voted for Lommy next, though he also suspected Jenny (as stated in his post before his vote) though he also mentioned Mac as being a Thing. I saw little against Lommy in his earlier posts, mostly mentioned the fact she voted for Rikae though she didn’t find her overly suspicious. It looked as though Jenny and Mac were higher on Menel’s lists, but he voted for Lommy. It’s possible to say he picked the one suspect that had garnered one vote and would help in stopping any chaos over single votes throughout the village which is an innocent move and a guilty move rolled into one. If that makes sense. An innocent villager would do that and could help by not adding another single vote to someone when they have suspicions of someone already voted for. But that logic is easily applied to a Thing trying to hide within a bandwagon.
Naria voted for Lommy next. Claims Lommy is acting very unLommyish and doesn’t believe the excuse given for Lommy’s early vote and absence.
Rikae then decides Mac isn’t so Thingish and changes her vote to her other top suspect.
Folwren/Jack voted for Lommy after spending a good deal of the day suspecting her.
So unless I missed a vote for Lommy hiding away those five are the voters of Lommy. I have my suspicions of Mac from yesterday, but due to the voting patterns of yesterday I’m moving him down and bumping the other four Lommy voters up.
Menel tops the list. He was the second voter and pushed Lommy into the lead. Looking at his last three or four posts I’d say his most likely vote choice would have been Jenny or Mac. He never commented on what pushed Lommy ahead in his mind and I hope he does today.
Naria is the next on the list. She voted when Nogrod and Lommy had two votes each, but her vote for Lommy pushed Lommy back into the lead. That makes me wonder about a possible relationship between Naria and Nogrod.
Rikae voted for Lommy last and changed her vote from Mac. Normally this would set alarms off in my brain, but Rikae suspected Mac and Lommy much of the day. That fact makes me think she gave some real thought to who she should vote for and who was the most suspicious.
I feel Rikae and Folwren/Jack fall into the same category. Both suspected Lommy much of the day and they both voted when Lommy was already ahead in the votes. Because of that I find them far less suspicious than Naria and Menel.

I'll be back in a few hours with comments on Folwren's death and the events of the day thus far.
