So in reading over what
Macalaure has said about
Nogrod is interesting. His sole focus from essentially the first post was
Nogrod and
Nogrod alone. There is one post in which he considers a few others but it's merely a cursory glance.
Rereading his arguments I find some lucidity in them, which for day 1 is rather surprising. I have been vacillating between him being innocent and guilty and have leaned both ways and frustratingly I'm no nearer to a conclusion. It's irritating too because I am trying to look at others but I really want some finality in my mind. I will continue to give it more thought. In the meantime I notice that
SpM has given a response to
The Might that is almost identical to what I would give.

It may not have mattered who he voted for at that point. For convinience I'm going to copy the voting list SpM already included.

The
legate switch vote is interesting as it essentially put away
Nogrod and if
Nerwen is a wolf it could be argued that
Legate is also one and that his vote was to help prove innocence. If
Boro or
Eomer (not both) is a wolf that could explain why they didn't vote Nogrod but I think I'm off base and geting into unrealistic scenarios...however with that said
Eomer and
Boromir are perfect candidates to pull off the most unrealistic of scenarios.
Looking at earlier voting, there seems to be a lot of 'safe' votes honestly. It became very clear that there were only 3 legitimate candidates for day 1 and it would be very helpful to know what they were....we do know 2 of the 3 so in that regard the wolves helped us out a bit by killing
Shasta. Knowing if
Nerwen is a wolf would help tremendously in figuring out the voting pattern.
Speaking of
Nerwen she still seems to be a top suspect, which I feel is good as she hasn't sat right with me but I haven't done much independent investigative work on her as I've been focused elsewhere. Honestly, I know this sounds callous, I suggest lynching
Nerwen to figure out what she is and I suspect there is a good chance she is a wolf. A lot of questions would be answered. Of course, we shouldn't kill her unless there is sufficient suspicion which I feel there is a good deal of so far. I hope to be able to review her a bit more on my own soon. If I do, it will likely be much later in the day though. Can anybody help me out here?
Although now I'm looking at things a bit differently...Would the wolves, assuming
Nerwen is a wolf, have all voted for one of their own? If not, it doesn't make sense to kill
Shasta. ARGH! I feel I keep talking myself in circles...I'm really just typing as I think so sorry for my endless ramblings as I sit here and stare at the voting record trying to make some sense of it.
