Mithalwen (may have thought CoD was doomed anyway).

Both of those scenarios are disturbingly plausible if there was a wolf-on-wolf vote. McCaber is almost silent in the game and voted early on, while that's the kind of thing Mithalwen would do.

Anyway, you still haven't explained how wolves who had already voted could save their fellow at the deadline.

By retracting and voting Boro. He'd have been a dead man for sure. Which suggests to me that none of that foursome - or at least those who weren't around at deadline time - are wolves. Not Mithalwen then. Though didn't she say something odd to Boro around that time about whether he actually wanted to be lynched?

And I've been a wolf before, and I wouldn't. If all wolves were that predictable, this game would be a lot easier.

True, but then being predictable is a strategy if everyone expects you to be predictable and instead looks up the tricksy strategies

How long until deadline today then? I make it about 3 hours?

I'm thinking of voting for Nilp. Not been around and is very quiet and nobody has mentioned him. What's being hidden?
