Tol-in-Gaurhoth XIX: Ang Sagang Daga, bow.

Here's why:

tgwbs said:

That's just completely fabricated. There's no reasoning behind this.

If he didn't know, why not check? It's hardly difficult.

Plus the whole LMP vote was just odd.

Overall, it really does look like he's just trying to sow confusion and chaos. (tgwbs #223)

Right on, tgwbs! And there's more:

Eomer made a big fuss about how Anguirel's accusation of him was a joke, early in the Day, and was no different from his accusation of Kath. But that's patently false! Here is Anguirel's accusation of Eomer; it's a comment on the Eomer/lmp interplay and vote exchange:

You mortally insult me, churl. But I don't trust the harper who accuses ye one bit, so I shall continue to remain aloof, with the backing of my uncle the North Wind. (Ang #69)

Anguirel clearly sides with lmp (the "mortal insult" was lmp's reference to Ang's mental instability).

So he's obscuring Anguirel's suspicion of him; he spends a lot of time today asking why everyone is focusing on how bad Ang's death makes Kath look; he makes a solid case against Farael; then he goes and votes for Kath? I don't buy it.

Of course, it might all be part of another "master plan."

Some more non-vote-related thoughts based on today's postings:

"I don't eat sheep?" Well, neither do I but I don't feel the need to advertise it.

I believe that TGWBS has said that we have nine people who voted for Garin? (Formen #203)

Nah; tgwbs said that nine people received votes yesterday. Only five people voted for Garin. They were Garin, Eonwe, Celuien, Glirdan, Samwise.

Anyone else in favour of lynching another guy tonight? Rid the wolves of the male population and increase our chances of finding the Lover soon? Heheh. I bet the Ordo-Lover will vote for a female player tonight. So, starting with the girrrls: (Cailin #215)

This is tempting, but I think it's a little too early to do it on purpose unless we plan to continue methodically slaughtering the Y-chromosomes for a very long time--our village is very big, and it will take several Days of lynchings before we reach any kind of useful inequality. Also, if we do this, what's to stop the wolves from methodically killing off the females and destroying the numerical inequality? We should remember, too, that there's also guaranteed to be a female Lover--at this point we're still grasping at straws, and I think whomever we lynch is just as likely to be a Lover regardless of sex. But I'll file this idea away for later in the game.

I'll say now that there are a few individuals that have been so concise and well reasoned, and suspecting the same people I suspect, that I consider them to be (for the rest of toDay) above suspicion. They are: Eomer, Spawn, & tar-ancalime. (lmp #221)

Good heavens! Yesterday Garin approved of me; today it's lmp; this is unprecedented! I don't know what to do with myself! Evidently witchcraft agrees with me.

As for the talk of killing a male tonight I can see why this could help us weed out the lover wolf. How is this going to work if the other two wolves are female? (Valier #226)

We don't know this. The wolves could easily have been chosen randomly. All we know is that the Lovers are of opposite sexes.

I repeat. Samwise, Form, Lmp. You're all intelligent men. Are you telling us that it never occurred to any of you, until Lmp thought of it just now, that the wolf lover wouldn't tell all to his ord lover? (Lalaith #236)

Three cheers for Lalaith!
