TOL-IN-GAURHOTH XII, Erbar Telamarth

[Feanor of the Peredhil]

TGWBS, bad. *slaps hand* We're trying to orchestrate the lynching of wolves, not good guys, and yet you waste your vote on yourself while still insisting that you're innocent? What a horrible way to win!

I know that my typical behavior of voting before I go to bed (right near the end of the Day) will seem sketchy today, and I've not yet decided whether or not I wish to continue it. Though I know that I'd be an innocent trying to ensure that the plan goes through (heck, I'll vote for myself if it's decided by the group that I should be part of the double lynching), but I know that I'm a top suspect, and I'd like to avoid trouble in voting.

Being some sort of solo-rogue-individualist villager doesn't help anyone but the wolves -- if you're a wolf, it helps sow confusion and doubt; if you're innocent, it draws suspicion on yourself and only hinders the search for the true wolves.

As I first thought that 'Mer was the Seer, then transferred it to B88 for a time, I don't at all trust in my own intuition in this village. Firefoot never crossed my mind as Seer, except a short bit of speculation that was never extended upon. Identifying the Seer and working with her just wasn't an option here, and finding the most innocent villager means going with what I know to be true.

Right now, believing that Footie dreamt of Esty and okays her, I am perfectly fine following her lead. I also believe that morm is okay to listen to, so I'll listen to him. I also know for absolute certain that I'm not lupine, so I know that all of my choices, mistake or not, are uncorrupted. It's more than I can definately say for my trust in anyone else. To me, the most innocent villager is myself.

Now I'm off to analyze Esty, though it won't be terribly in depth, as I've got so much work to do. But I'll work off of Firefoot's prior analyses, which we know to be uncorrupted, and add my own input to it.
