Well, I don't know. A lot of it seems to have been based on feel. No one really mentioned Cabbie's early post as a part of the basis of their suspicion of me.
I didn't explain that very well. I mean it looks to me like the kind of thing that can arise when people, either with sinister motives, or just in a hurry, skim the thread and notice "hmmn, well, x suspects y... hey, looks like y could be a good person to suspect..."

Ah. In that case it's quite possible.

In reality, all that would have taken to make me suspicious was overacting the cobbler role, but if that is the case I would wonder why no one considered the connection I was trying to establish with Legate. I was only intending to be cobblerish only when talking to him, not in regards to any other issues.

I've finished looking through the G55 and Legate posts until now, and as a result I'm pretty suspicious of Legate. I intend to vote for him, but I won't place it yet.

My post was about half done when I got dragged away to the grocery store. I'll finish it when I get home (posting this from my phone) but as of right now I'm suspicious of Eonwe and, if the current trend is that G55 is showing signs of cobblery, then I'm even more suspicious.

Lots of Legate voting going on. It's really almost unanimous, actually, which raises my hackles a bit.

Yes, my jewel, it seems to have swung from a G55-waggon to a Legate-wagon. And the thing is– well, it's true G55 did put up a good defence, but even if you believe her, it doesn't mean she's right.

EDIT:X'd with 2 Sallys.

Well, G55 was likely going to be my vote toDay, and since I couldn't see her being a wolf after what she said (she's opened herself wide to the Seer in any case), I thought it was worth a try.

So... your reasoning for voting for Legate is... "worth a shot"? Duly noted.

I keep dozing off. Best vote now just in case.

++Legate

Of the two in my top category, I'm much more suspicious of Legate. I currently think Cop and McCaber are more cobbler material, so I'd rather stick to what I think is real guilt. I wouldn't protest to a Steve lynch, I suppose, but I think Legate is a bigger threat (and would also give us more information than a Steve lynch would at this stage).

I may hang around. I may end up unconscious. I guess we'll see.


EDIT: x'd with two Shastas

Steve's approach to Legate (see my #125) is, well, just downright unsettling. Other than that, I have no real read on him, so that's where that's coming from.
