Werewolf IIX - Tra la la lally, here down in the Saga, ha ha!

[Boromir88]

Well, now that I have looked more hard through the posts on day two, it's time to start putting some pressure on...who? Why Captain of Despair....

Coming into today I had taken Sauce's post into account and began thinking of Gil-galad. However, Gil-Galad's lackadaisakle (spelling?) defense actually seems like Gil-Galad being Gil-Galad so I am less sure of that.

So, let's see what we got...In post #95 Durelin says...

What's scary is that the bear could be anywhere. The bear could be CaptainofDespair, or SamwiseGamgee, or Meneltmarcil, or Boromir88...it could be anyone. The first three, and perhaps the fourth could also be a wolf. Could.

When reading this I interpret it as Durelin merely saying that anyone could be a the bear. Not pointing fingers at anyone, not accusing anyone, just mentioning that anyone could be a bear. So, I did not take this as an accusation, but bringing up the point that anyone could be the bear.

Someone took this differently in post #98, Captain firmly proclaims his innocence...He even goes so far as to try a little "back at you. You accuse me I accuse you." He even goes so far as to suggest that Durelin is the Seer, afraid of something is he?

Me? A Bear? *gasps* What nonsense! I can assure you, on the honor of my shrews, that I am no such thing.

As for you, why not lynch you? Maybe you have something to hide? Are you a gifted? Hmm...Into the future I cannot see. Perhaps you can?

Why would he be afraid that Durelin could look into the future? He obviously is afraid for some reason I think that post clearly shows it.

Then later on in post #123, I talk about people should only be stoutly deny their innocence if they have something to be afraid of (however I do agree Lalaith in that this always is not the case. I still think it to be an accurate way to judge).

Suddenly Captain's defense of himself seems to change in post #128 and 130...

Go ahead. Lynch me.

If I'm innocent, I shouldn't have to defend myself. The evidence will clearly speak for itself. And how would it help? If I'm innocent, it narrows down the field. Sometimes, one can only have faith that his fellow villagers aren't country-bumpkins who lynch innocents at the drop of a hat.

As Meneltarmacil points out in post 132:

Captain, it seemeth to me that thou art trying to use ye idea Boromir88 mentioned of ye innocente not defending themselves as harshly as ye guilty. Thou dost not defende thyself aggressively in order to make it appear that thou art innocente.

Now at first I will say I was skepticle of this, but as I see how Captain reacted earlier to being accused (which I didn't think it was an accusation), I think he was trying to fool us. Flip-flopper have we?
