Ok, I’ve had a closer look at Morm.
The first thing that I noticed was that he’s participating more now. However, this isn’t necessarily a guilty thing - my own participation has been variable due to RL, plus I think a lot of us felt a bit more pro-active since wolves stopped being served up to us on a plate.
His eye of suspicion does seem to rove a bit. He starts off suspecting me, Legate and Shasta. He then goes on to give both Lommy and Roa a hard time. He eventually goes back to voting for Shasta, but then says that he’s so sure of Kath’s innocence that he’d switch his vote to Green. This part puzzles me, as Green hadn’t really seemed to register on his radar, and to me Kath really felt suspicious yesterday. (Otherwise I wouldn’t have voted for her myself )

Today I’ve felt quite sympathetic to a lot of what he's said about Roa.
Quote:
too emotionless for me, you don't seem lost, if you know what I mean
This is a good point, Roa’s been putting a lot of emphasis on who’s changed since day 4/5. Well looking through the posts I think that most of us have changed, and that’s to be expected. We all knew what to do before: vote Nilp, vote Cel, etc, and now we don’t. Roa’s been the player who’s stayed the mostly the same throughout, and I think that’s actually more suspicious.

I do however agree with this comment of Roa’s about Morm:
Quote:
how normal he could seem while being evil
Which is why I’ve just had a good look at him. Morm is a scarily good player, even when he's RL busy.
But on balance I am more worried about Roa right now. Because of this assurance thing, and also the double-think.
Quote:
Lists like this one that conveniently place oneself out of suspicion also bother me
This is precisely what Roa herself has been doing, just in a much more cunning way, by her wolf-profiling.

Some thoughts about other players.

Shasta's breezy behaviour yesterday did little to make me feel better about him.
I want Eonwe to explain why he didn't vote.
Sally I don't know what to make of. She is nice and fair to other players, which I like, but seems to vacillate a lot. YesterDay she said that she was suspicious of Kath but wanted to wait on her and give her another day. Then at the end of the Day she was so sure Kath was innocent that she was offering to eat her voting notes. What happened to change your mind so dramatically, Sally?
Her analysis of Gwath today however, was helpful - the point about him suspecting Roa and its pro/con significance was interesting.
I think Sally's point about me not being treated like a known innocent is quite reasonable. Despite what Roa said in her analysis, I did not put myself in the same category as Lommy, I said was 'fairly' rather than very unlikely as a scry. I still do think Lommy is an extremely unlikely scry and thus in my mind at least she is innocent. Given that Rikae did not know that all old wolves would be gone, when she scried her last one, and thus everyone started with a clean slate, she had no reason to think that the high suspicion of Lommy would not continue. Rikae may, as Sally says, be 'twisted', but it would have been beyond reckless, IMO, to have scried Lommy.

Anyway, aside from the innocent Durelin, this leaves Legate and Little Green. Legate I agree should be given a chance to play toDay before we focus on him. Little Green I've never played with before, and I'm finding it hard to get a feel for her. She came in for a lot of suspicion yesterday, and I need to read the thread, yet again, to try to see why.
However, it's a lovely sunny day in RL and I want to enjoy it a bit. I'll see you all later.

My internet just died! I don't know why. It just stopped suddenly, just as I opened Internet Explorer. Hopefully, though, its all sorted out, do I'll be able to post more today (and VOTE).

ooh yes... that too.

It didn't occur to me before, but now I think about it, yes.





But then contrary to mty previous post, I must conclude that even though Roa has acted suspicious, I don't think she's a WW.

morm is a tough one. He looks like he would be an excellent wolf, but now he doesn't seem like he's as careful as he would be in mormwolf mode (well, I think so). His posting has actuallly become louder and more forthright than before


Now with hextuple(or is that sextuple) WW-slaying busting! Wa-hey!

Well, that might be all I'm able to post until its almost the DL.

Bye for now.




PS. Please someone else post. I feel like I'm talking to myself. O, how I miss those Days of yore (earlier in this thread)

edit: x-ed with Legate. Someone's finally on the thread!
