Oh, my God! They killed Menel! You.... *ahem*

Seriously, I didn't see that coming. If the innocents don't happen to take Menel early, the wolves do it.

Menel only said he trusted Legate and was very slightly suspicious of Brinniel and me. He's basically a safe kill who doesn't leave any real trails to anyone, which is somewhat suspicious. I mean, there was not much suspicion around on this Day One. Lommy was suspected to a degree and some were wary of Brinniel. Nobody was under serious pressure (except Shasta and xyzzy, of course). Why did they not choose a bolder kill? The way I see it, either one or both of the wolves are among Lommy/Brinniel/xyzzy and he/she/they maybe subjectively overestimated the pressure towards him/her/them, or the wolves are playing very, very safe, which would probably also point towards Lommy or Brinniel. It's also possible that there's a mastermind like Nogrod or Legate among the wolves and they want us to think they are overly careful to distract us, but I have a feeling that is not the case (at least I will discard that possibility for now). Where do these thoughts leave Volo? I'm not sure yet. He's still a dark horse to me.

By the way, what are the rules about people who fail to show up for two days?

There were only three non-Shasta-voters, Volo. Unless you are a baddie yourself, your claim is correct.
