You know, it's really funny seeing the phantom's and Mithalwen's sig's in close proximity.

Also, by the way (this is the thing that makes me the most distrustful of these two brilliant gentlemen) - arranging the death of a known innocent sounds rather eyebrow-raising. Why choose her of all the people? Care to explain?~Lommy
I did feel pretty cold-hearted about that one, as I doubt Agan would approve, especially in a village like this.

It was really just working off tp's attempt to make Gil look like a good target. Honestly after McCaber died, I was serious about thinking I signed his death warrant. I mean I pretty much just said...last time I remember McCaber was so right about everything I was convinced he was a wolf. Then when Nerwen asked for thoughts about Agan, it just kind of popped in, well Agan has been pretty intense this game, she would make a good wolf target, and of course I knew she wasn't the seer, but knew she was innocent. So, I dressed it up as nice as possible, and I laughed when I finally figured out that tp was adding his own twist to it. I believe I sent an apology out to Agan, hope she accepted it, but I thought it was necessary for me. As I thought the only way for me to survive in this one is just to get on everyone's last nerve, and hope I only make it more difficult on the wolves.

That is why so much of my strategy relied on tp's role too. I mean I knew as hard as I tried I was not going to out post him, so I could really come out and be as active and up-front as possible, and know that tp would be even more so, and if necessary would cause bigger trouble for the wolves than I would. So, really I could come out and be as bold as I wanted to, and look like such a blatant conniving wolf, but still hopefully not too much so that I got lynched. Also, I could be as aggressive against the wolves, and look like such a blatant seer, as I wanted to because I knew I was so crazy no one would believe me anyway, until I was dead or revealed. I'm not sure I want to tell the phantom what I was planning if he was a wolf, than he might know all the tricks in my bag and use it against me. (I was serious about my dream of voting for a filibuster and tp blocking my vote too! )

This has managed to be the only village that absolutely haunts me. (Which is my tip of the hat and bow to our modgoddesses ).

Boro and tp - thanks for the explanation. It kind of makes sense and the way you answer makes me even more convinced you're honest.


Okay, so the last wolf must be among

Brinniel
Gil-Galad
Greenie
Gwathagor
Ilya
Kath
Nerwen
Rune
Sally



I'm pretty sure the wolf isn't

Nerwen - ranger-confusion = enough said.

or

Greenie - her constant annoyance and criticism at tp and Boro looks innocent to me, also, I think she's too "sharp" to be a wolf.


I don't think the wolf is

Brinn or Kath - their overall tones are just very genuine.

or

Rune - I suspect he'd be far more nervous by now if he was the wolf.


I hope the wolf isn't

Gil
- it'd be too unfair.

or

Gwath - absolutely no read on him either.


The wolf could be

Ilya - she has really said some rather fishy stuff and I think she was a bit too quick to trust tp and Boro yesterDay. Also, although I can't recall it right now, I think there's something curious in the relationship between her and Nog...

or

Sally - she seems to have been a little jumpy toDay, which is just understandable if she's about to be left alone. Also, she too says some fishy stuff.


While toDay still lasts, I'd love to have a look at the three wolves' posts and see who looks like their mate and then proceed based on those clues. Also, having a look at at least sally and Ilya separately probably wouldn't do me any bad either. But I doubt I will be much around anymore before the second phase of toDay - I have an exam to study to tonight and I don't feel it's extra necessary that I'm here right now.

Voted against a filibuster-

tp
Nerwen
Rune
Boro
Sally
Ilya
Kath
Green
Lommy

That is more than half of the village, which means that there is no option of filibustering for the rest of the day. We've almost got this thing set up. We just need Rep votes from Brin, Green, and Gwath. (And me, but I'm going last just in case.)

The votes-

Ner +++++Sally
Rune ++++Boro
Boro ++++Ner
Sally ++++tp
Ilya +++++Boro
Kath ++++Ner
Lommy ++tp

Left to vote-

Brinniel- vote Boro
Greenie- vote Phantom
Gwathagor- vote Nerwen
the phantom- vote Sally

EDIT: Spacing
