Okay. Here are the remaining unknowns. One of them is a wolf.
Nerwen
Feanor of the Peredhil
Boromir88
Mithalwen
Isabellkya
Macalaure
There are eight of us toDay so without any further ranger-saves / wolf-blunders
we'll have three Days to solve it (this one included). So: we can lynch three people and the wolf will meanwhile bring down two, narrowing the choices at the same time.
We should be able to do this.
The basic situation as I see it is the following...
Nerwen: A lot has been talked of her voting
Boro Day after Day in the last instant throwing her votes away. It still is something I'm pretty uneasy about combined with her almost total silence & detachement from
Sally whom everyone discussed (except the light defence of her - which she denied yesterDay). Would fit the picture of wolf-team trying to keep it up together.
Fëa: Has been doing everything but actually taking stances or getting involved. Voted two Days for
Boro just for the fun of it (it seems) and has then voted very safely going with the flow (voted for a cobbler though*). Many times her discussions seem more like diversions than actually trying to do something (like yesterDay). Also hasn't suspected too many others (for not calling the retaliatory votes?). So a bored ordo or a methodical wolf? Fits the idea of a team-wolves.
Boro: Very much the motor here. First the
Lal-crusade then the
McCaber one.
Sally's vote on Day1 still holds me from suspecting him. If they were that cunning they deserve to win.
Boro being a wolf is a bit too far-fetched in light of the voting-record. But it's possible of course...
Mith: If
Mith is a wolf she should have made a WoW on Day1 - the one which got
CoD lynched in the end. It's possible
Mith made it but somehow I don't just believe it. She has been a bit nervous at times though... just to make a notice of it.
Isabellkya: With
Sally trying to save
CoD quite openly also
Izzie's first Day vote looks good. Sadly her record after that has not been so flashing - and I don't mean the actual votes but the reasons behind them or the easiness with which they have been made many times. Hard to say...
Macalaure: He has an astoninshing record of lynching two wolves (and a cobbler although I wouldn't count on that too heavily; look at *). Should be the master goodie and worth trust. And I'm thinking he probably is. But things that bug me a bit are that a) he has been so nice and unsuspective of me consistently through the game: it is a real turn-around b) he has practically saved me from the gallows two times and I should be indebted to him - like I am - but is it staged? c) he has been consistently explaining in different analysis how he could have been seen as having lupine motives. It's very hard for me to see the assuredness with which
Mac makes a) and b) and gets his votes right...
So the result? Anyone could be the wolf but only one is.
At the moment I'd say
Boro and
Mith are the least suspicious because of the voting on Day1.
Izzy and
Mac are in the middle as there are puzzling things with both.
Nerwen and
Fëa still top my list because they would fit with the view of a wolf-pack trying to play it together rather than killing each other off and trying to make it alone against a big village.
A short postscript. As her departing words
Sally says:
Quote:
"Avenge my foul and most unnatural murder." And I say this to....
....My lovely wolf partner.
|
Now I see this has kind of kept up my idea that the wolves were having some team spirit even if
CoD died early. It was even more the way
Sally behaved in general but that quote kind of helped to keep that interpretation (and therefore I have been reluctant to believe in those WoW votes too much). Now I have just started thinking whether there was a conscious misleading irony there? So the other wolf was anything but a "lovely partner" and therefore the irony? Although it has to be kept in mind that she posted this in a hurry as it came one minute after her last post (on overtime) where she realised she was dead.
*Unlike
Mac (in his vote-analysis from yesterDay), I think that someone voting for cobbler doesn't make that person or the vote unsuspicious. It's perfectly possible a wolf votes a cobbler; first of all because s/he doesn't exactly know who's the cobbler but secondly s/he might also vote for the one s/he thinks is the cobbler - it could even be smart at times when trust is what you need and loking at
Mac's reaction it might work...
