The suggestion Lommy gave about Cab's death sounds plausible although I wouldn't rule out any other thing, either. And it's funny that my first reaction, too, was, "Ha! Nog's guilty!"
I don't see much sense in speculating who might have chosen him since it's possible to find a reason for just about everybody to have him as a kill.

I don't like your suggestion that much. If I really suspect someone, I don't give up my suspicions, but I can suspect someone even if I don't pursue them aggressively. If you're a wolf this looks almost like mockery, "Keep suspecting innocents with such fury, mwa-ha-ha"!

A rep's duty is not to oblige his/her voters, but his/her duty IS to take the responsibility s/he's given.
Was phantom irresponsible and outrageous when he threw away his vote on Shasta? Are reps whose votes don't make a difference irresponsible? Why should a rep who votes no one be considered irresponsible if they are not?

To be honest I don't think I was indicating you had said anything like it - I was rather taking the thought process one step further (also because I thought you could have thought so, too).

Why?

What I found weird was the seeming lack of reasoning behind people's suspicion; "Hey let's suspect him because others do it too!" Greenie said it was weird how Legate was lynched without any proper case against him and I think she's quite right. And I can admit I didn't have a real case, either.

edit: xed since Lommy
