What do I think?

I think you're not going to get much out of me for another half-hour, while I finish an essay on Pluto and Proserpina. Keep arguing; it'll give me stuff to look at when I come back.

Shame...I rather wanted to rule Rune out, but his last post is screamingly suspicious...over-touchiness and then departure. But I'm not at all certain he's a wolf. I don't think, Valier, that he and Menel plausibly could be...but maybe that's what Menel wants me to think. Would someone look at the behaviour of these two towards each other this game? That would be useful.

For now:

I suspect Bomburlass, Beorn, Menel and Rune in varying degrees.

I don't suspect Valier or Nilp, though I will consider the late Seer's arguments against Valier, who was to be her next dream.

Hmmm. Very quiet.

Does no one out there want to come and play with Uncle Thorin? Hmmm?

The consensus (and we all know how much I like the consensus, boys and girls) seems to favour Menel...

I'm still extremely fond of the idea of Bomburlass being lupine. Her behaviour has been so immaculate, in a muted way; so understated; in need of correction WITH AN AXE.

The earliest legends of Holby's wolvishness show her behaving like this. Also, she apparently missed a choice piece of banter I chucked her way earlier. Either over-cautious...or she didn't see it, probably more likely.

Holby? You around? I want someone to throw anvils at!

Yet I agree she's something of a shot in the dark.

Beorn...I'm not so much suspicious of her, as desperate for her not to beat me as a wolf. That would be ringingly unfair. So I'm tempted - as she was about me - to lynch her anyway...

You know, I'm probably the most irresponsible Proven Innocent Sage you lot could have have got landed with.

Well, you can go ahead and vote for me if you absolutely must, but it isn't going to help you at all.

Well I don't know what to think at this point but I am leaning towards Rune. It's awfully quiet around here.......Where is everybody? It's getting fairly late here and I will have to vote tonight before bed. I'm going to look back at the Rune/Menel interaction.

Well I have found that Rune thought Menel to be innocent in the beginning and then he changed his mind and thinks he is a wolf. Menel has been suspicious of Rune for quite awhile. Both were suspicious of Ang. They have had little direct interaction though.....but both have talked alot about the other. Could be a major bluff with the two "fighting" and getting one of them killed hoping the other can make it to the end?

I'm convinced my school supports my werewolfing in some sly way... Today my psychology teacher wasn't present and she had left us riduclously few exercises to do and I finished them in less than 15 minutes... And dashed to the school library to play werewolf.

Well, it's pretty silent here. I'm rather confident the remaining two wolves are now trying to escape attention. So, lynch the silent ones? Jokes aside, I think everybody who wants the village to win should speak up (otherwise we can't distinguish the goodies from the baddies) and I'll be personally after everyone who isn't speaking up. (Yes, I'm afraid, it's in the genes...)

I agree Menel is suspicious, but of the others I won't say anything before rereading their and Volo's posts on the thread. (I'm off to that next, because without doing it I doubt I can be of any real assistance to the village...)

Haha, I guess I deserve that opinion from you, but, I assure you, you don't have to fear that... at least in this game.

Oh, and Valier, I'd leave interpreting Volo's words aside... He might have said anything about his fellow wolves and I hold it very unprobable we're ever going to figure out who's his fellow wolf by reading his last words. I mean, he could say his fellow wolf's guilty in his opinion to bluff, say they're innocent to double-bluff, or leave them unmentioned in hope that they escape our attention... He could also name an inncent guilty to bluff, or innocent (to double-bluff) or leave unmentioned in order to think us he's shielding them. Or he could be doing all this in quadrupule-bluff -level. So, basicly anything, and probably, (yet not certainly) all these strategies mixed.

So I'd really rather concentrate on other things, Valier, no offense...
