the guy who be short has just left Hobbiton.
"If it's arguments you want, old man," Guy said to Nogrod, "you shall certainly get them!

First and foremost, I find the idea that the wolves could intentionally forgo a kill absurd. You say the wolves may have done this to make us lynch a quiet person, and I find this ridiculous. If they really want to get a quiet person, they can kill them in the night! Your theory is convoluted and... weird, frankly.

Indeed, you seem to spew too many distracting theories - this idea of Turin being a seer, for example. To me, and many others it seems, they are not only distracting, but don't seem to make much sense.

I acknowledge the misunderstanding about your Day 1 vote. You say you have explained it once already, and this is true. To me, however, it still seems like a wolvish plan to make you seem innocent.

Again, you repeat the accusation that I was trying to create a bandwagon against you with my accusations of you, ignoring the fact that I changed my mind about you before anybody else (other than Rikae, who supported my suspicion of you!) had joined us, thus proving that it was not my intent to create a bandwagon.

You accuse me for changing my mind about you. There was nothing suspicious about this: I presented my points which I believed pointed to your guilt. You answered them satisfactorily. I therefore changed my view about you. You youself say "It is a mark of an innocent villager thinking for the common good to be able to change one's mind when one realises that one is possibly doing a mistake" - but apparently, not in my case, eh?

I believed the quiet to be wolvish "before and after" the period of accusing you (before toDay that is), but not during the time when I suspected you, because you tried to put pressure on the quiets. This is perfectly reasonable. I don't see why this would point to my guilt in any way.

You claim that I said that you suggested not to lynch anybody. Anybody going over what I have said will find that I made no such claim, which means that once more you are seeking to misrepresent me. And, it seems, you are trying to distract the whole village again by restarting the whole lynching-somebody-doomed-to-die-anyway debate when it has no relevance. I will say it once more: your view is wrong. It is a complete waste to lynch somebody who would die anyway, which, I said, is essentially the same as lynching nobody! The statistics prove that I am right."

Guy took a deep breath, realising he had been getting ever so slightly heated.

"I feel that last night, you and your ally - who may or may not be quiet - could not kill due to the disturbance you experienced in the spiritual world. Your outlandish claim that the wolves chose to forgo a kill is simply an attempt to confuse us.

You are, dear Nogrod, oh so wolvish, slippery, contradictory and distracting. And so, without further ado,

++NOGROD

And now I shall concentrate on trying to find our second wolf.

Oh, and Brinn, I fear you misunderstood what Nogrod accused me of. He claimed my suspicion of him was an attempt to start a bandwagon against him, Nogrod, and nothing to do with my vote for xyzzy. I have, however, shown this to be a product of his own wolvish mind."

Guy settled back into his seat and took a sip from his flask, satisfied.
