Don't worry about Gwath.

He's removed and I'll just tell you now that Excel made him an Ordo.

[Mithalwen]

Thank you, o absent host.... better steel myself to read again. All rather a stab in the dark still

[Kuruharan]

I keep forgetting to do a...

"A mysterious metal pipe with a speaking horn attached suddenly appears in the hall and speaks thusly!"

[Macalaure]

Back and reading and thinking.

Vote count for starters:

Lottie -> morm
Nerwen -> Mac
Greenie -> Agan
Lalaith -> Agan(2)
Lommy -> Agan(3)
Legate -> Green
Caber -> Agan(4)
morm -> Mac(2)
Agan -> Green(2)

Agan 4, me and Greenie 2, morm 1

[Mithalwen]

Nvm Kuru....you are being amusing.. I shan't vote for you, now how about a little clue to make up for being an ordo down?

Very well.

The wolves have posted somewhere in this thread.

[Rikae]

Of the current candidates I think Greenie is the creepiest, however, I'd much prefer Lottie. Is there any support for that?

Eh... I could be persuaded.

But Green I don't buy; and now I'm seeing a Legate/Agan combination setting her up - which probably doesn't make much sense, but oh well. Anyway, I'm somewhat less concerned about saving Agan right now.

On Mac I have little idea, but seemed fairly sincere so far. No giant red arrows anyway.

What's up with Loslote?

[Mithalwen]

I suppose an useful one would have been too much to ask for? sigh..

[Macalaure]

Looking pretty innocent to me:
Rikae
Lommy
Lalaith
Eomer
Mithalwen

Leaning innocent:
McCaber
Boromir (buying his explanation about the innocent slip)
mormegil
Nilp (the wolf-on-wolf comment about Lommy-Agan is the only thing I have on him)
Legate (still don't like that one post of his earlier toDay, but otherwise I don't see anything)
Greenie

Still under the radar:
Kath

Undecided:
Formendacil (behavior is somewhat suspicious, but that self-vote...)
Nerwen
Shasta

Somewhat suspicious:
Sally (her case against Rune and some general uneasiness)
Lottie (her behavior around the Agan-Lommy argument resulting in her vote yesterDay, and her jumping on morm toDay)
Firefoot (throwing shady suspicions at me and then jumping on it when I argued against them, only reason she's in this group and not one up is because I'm worried about being kneejerk)

Fairly suspicious:
Aganzir (reason stated all over the place)

I'm surprised Agan voted for Greenie. She suspected me, too, and I already had more votes.

Reason tells me the case against Agan is clear, but my gut hesitates. I don't like any of the present alternatives, though, especially since one of those alternatives is me.

[Rikae]

Firefoot

Day 1
5 - 25% chance of nailing a baddie today
8 - Banter
37 - wants to orchestrate vote to ensure a tie
51 -Reiterates that she wants a tie
200 - Unsure who seems more suspicions of Lommy/Agan, Nog probably innocent because of role confusion
207 - Admitted throw-away vote for Gwath

Day 2
252 - why innocents and wolves would/would not want to tie. Seems not to conclude much from it (gives reasons on all sides), but finds Lottie, Mac & McCaber suspicious.
253 - Getting bad vibes from me, gives no reason.
280 - Suspicious of the Nogawagon
284 - Says Mac is being defensive
348 -

I can relate to that when pressed for time, but still, the result is pretty indistinguishable from safe-under-reindeer-wolvery.
352 - Suspicion list. Lottie, Mac & McCaber still top suspects (as in her first post).

Conclusions: very safe, very under-the-radar, but otherwise seems innocent enough.

[Firefoot]

After reading over Greenie's posts, I don't really understand the campaign against her. Still not convinced about Agan, either - I sort of wonder if this whole Again/Lommy business has gotten way out of proportion, to the exclusion of discussing other players... *if* both of them are innocent, it would be a good tactic by wolves to keep pushing that discussion, keep the focus there and off themselves. Or maybe everyone else is more perceptive than me and I just don't see what's right in front of my face.

I'm becoming increasingly convinced of Eomer's innocence; he seems to be echoing my confused villager thoughts.

[Shastanis Althreduin]

I apologize for my lack of participation today - I've been on the road to a hotel for a lot of it.

We've an hour to go until DL and I'm still not certain who I'm voting for. Most of the suspicions I've had thus far have lessened a bit, save Lottie who I've said I'd rather not vote for toDay on account of she's not here to answer my questions.

I did think Agan was suspiciously jumpy yesterday, but toDay I do think she's made an unanswered point;

(bolding mine)

It may just be Aganwolf grasping at anything and everything to save themselves, but I've had the same reaction when I thought someone was being intentionally rude to me, so I'm probably biased in thinking she's telling the truth here. Of course, as I type this, it occurs to me that I can't think of any reason it can't actually be the truth for an Aganwolf. And Lommy hasn't posted since she said that, either, so it's not as though she's had a chance to answer this.

I may go back momentarily and look at Lommy, actually; something Eomer said recently struck a bit of a chord with me regarding her -

Granted, Agan has hardly gone without notice but Lommy's been fairly laserlike as far as I can tell. I need to go back and see if she's focused on anyone else.
