You are correct Saurreg I do question a lot of people and suspect many especially early on when we have nothing to go on. So my attempt is to gauge reactions to what I say. I find that much better than sitting quietly around hoping to guess. I see no reason to think I'm a wolf because I have thought others suspicious. I feel that weather or not I actual pin down a wolf I contribute greatly by stirring the pot, so to speak.

But dah prob iz dat once yer got yer rreaction, yer never followed up. When dah crowd moved in another direction, yer threw away dah fish yer caught und rushed on over. Dat's another thing I find trroubling.

Und also wot of those bold "me-suspect' lists? Yer dah only one in dah village who does so frequently. If could be yer very confident (but dah record shows underwis'h) of your think'in or most prob, dis'h is yer shield, a very powerful way of puttin' others on dah defensive to clear their names before yer, lest others suspect also. Rremember what deh always say - dah best defence is und offense. Wot better way to distance yerself from sus'pis then to krreate sus'pis on others.

I haf double checked me klaims on how Kitanna supported yer sus'pis on Kath und me stand by dah statement. No one except for dah foolish lad Elf-warrior (who voted for 'imself even though innocent) approved but he was a young lad, easily influenced.

I am finished in my defense and will let what I have said speak for itself. I will focus my attention and energy on catching a wolf. We know that there are only 2 shirriffs left and one wolf. Meaning the only one with any sure knowledge is the wolf. I will go and do some back reading to see if I can find anything out because there is no use in arguing to naseum my innocence being that Saurreg already voted for me.

In reading all of Kath's post I think we can say only one thing for certain and that is Wilwarin is innocent. Early on Kath voiced much suspicion on Wilwa and actually wanted her lynched immediately after Kitanna but by the end in Post 315 she almost unequivocally stated that Wilwa is innocent.

One more item on my defense that I noticed in rereading Kath is notice on Day 3 that's where I began to know she was the seer and see how I begin to echo her and attempt to take charge so as to save her from the wolves. When I was asking the seer to come forward I was asking Kath and I read her response and asked again the next day. She told us also in that post 315 that she didn't know who the wolves are otherwise she would tell us, but then to keep apperances up she says she thinks I should be watched. A good attempt to aver the attention of the wolf however it didn't work. Now this doesn't scream that I'm innocent but I think we can imply that I am based on what Kath said. She used me, knowing I'm innocent, to show the wolf that she didn't know what was going on thus not the seer.

I am thinking of either Lhuna or Saurreg. Lhuna because of what has been discussed in length up til now and Saurreg because of his vehemence against me and his earlier reactions when I accused him. He goes off wildly when anybody accuses him.

Unfortunately for us, Kath didn't really pick the best people to dream about (not that I mean to insult the dead or anything ). There are two in particular that I am puzzling over at the moment. And now that they are locking horns it seems plausible that one of them will be dead come nightfall (that tends to be how these situations go, isn't it? )

I'd much rather kill Lhunardawen. I think she's probably the cobbler but I'd like to make sure. She's certainly more explicitly suspicious than Morm or Saurreg. Do away with her first!

But....I can afford to hold my vote. I may need it before the day is over.

I second that. I really have never seen the point in voting real early...the night before would be the max for me. I know it can look suspicious to be the last person to vote but I'm equally suspicious of those that cast votes without hearing any arguments.

That said, I am still more suspicious of Lhuna than Saurreg. I've been suspicious of that Lhunatic for quite awhile & that's probably the way I'm going to vote.

TORE
Eomer
Mormegil
Saurreg


Wilwarin
Lhuna
Encai

These are our remaining villagers. The bottom group has yet spoken at all today. I would like to hear from them fairly soon.

Right now I feel confident about Wilwarin's innocence.
Encai I'm feel pretty good about her.
TORE and Eomer almost from the beginning. I have thought them innocent though they have played in a way that I could see a very wolf acting. I will not expound on that now because I do not believe that they are wolves but could be. I say this because I believe both of them capable of being that clever.
Lhuna could be a wolf but now that Oromin is dead and a wolf I'm more convinced that she's the cobbler, reason being is that I can't picture the wolves agreeing to have both people do that similar of a strategy and if she's not the cobbler then who is?
That leaves Saurreg he's been on and off my suspicion list but came flying up to the top today with his vehemence towards me. I guess mainly he's at my top by default. I don't suspect the others enough with the possible exception of Lhuna so if I were to decide who to lynch in order I would have to say

Saurreg
Lhuna
Eomer
Encai
TORE
Wilwarin

I post me thoughts base on the posts available und you came back with nothing to yer defence but personal attacks? Now dat's somethung worth reading into more.

EDIT: Me sees yer resorting to dah ol' tricks of putting up yer most sus'pis list again. If dat be yer way of putting me on guard und directing dah rest of the villagers at me, me wun be fuzzed.
