Sorry, I got taken away by RL stuff.

Actually that would be heaps of time– better than any village in WW history– but I think your calculations are a little out, there, Morsul. |
Not much really. Could be keeping packmate Morsul in-line, but could just as well be trying to be useful.

Yes, and there has been something a bit "off" about Morsul's posting since the start– at least, I was thinking about voting him even before I logged on again– only, I'm not sure about the wisdom of bringing another candidate into play *now*. |
Here she starts making it sound as if Morsul is a genuine lynch-candidate for her, and the only thing stopping is that there are already too many. But then the next Day she softens it significantly:

Honestly, I'm not sure it need be intentional even if wolvish– I mean, I think Morsul tends to play in a kind of bubble regardless of role. Sometimes it gets him lynched, sometimes it works in his favour. |

So basically, what it looks like is that she's been building up a low-profile suspicion of
Morsul. It could really go either way. Either she was intending to keep this low-profile back-and-forth approach with suspicions of varying intensity or she was was building him up as a future safe lynch-target that she'd been sowing the seeds of doubt against throughout the game.

This pretty much sums up what I've just been saying. It looks like she's been keeping him as an indefinite "we'll lynch him but not yet" (but to use at a time of need or to distance herself?).

And she's at it again...

Oh, I agree it all works in theory– but participation hasn't been great in recent games, and I can all too clearly imagine a scenario where half the village does those "no time to read the thread, must fly" posts.

That makes that person an immediate target for the Kings Men and killing them (in the case that it was an innocent) off in the night would then break the chain resulting in Elendil having to make a stab in the dark as to who he chooses to send a dream to next.

Yes– but we do have a Ranger. That's what they're for, after all. |
So the first one seems all right, if a tad ironic (she later seems to epitomise the lack of time style of posting), but the second one seems a bit... strange. Almost mocking. To put it more plainly, it seems the way I'd imagine one wolf to talk to another about gifteds.

Random lists don't mean much in terms of suspicion unless stated otherwise, but this does put distance between herself and
Morsul and
Lottie, so this could potentially speak for either (or both) of them being part of her pack.
Then there's the Lottie-dream:

Please do not lynch me. It would be very bad. Good night.

Interesting how she's defending
Lottie and making her seem unwolflike at first. Could just be coincidence, but it's also very possible that she's trying to set it up so that
Lottie comes out of her dream proclamation looking especially innocent.
It seems unlikely to me that
Nerwen would treat her two fellows in the same way, so I'd assume that she kept a low profile with one (i.e.
Manwe) and a high-profile with the other (i.e.
Lottie or
Morsul). I'm currently leaning towards
Manwe and
Lottie, with
Morsul being the fall-back lynch.
This fits quite well with her dislike (
#283 and
#313) of
phantom's list.

Next, I think I need to look at how the others deal with her (and then just at them in general).
