I missed the note that the mod gods extended the deadline. I can say that the village is in the midst of making a big mistake. I know little of Gandalf and Wayne. Abercrombie simply strikes me as wolfish. Anguirel strikes me as suspicious but voted against a wolf. I don't have much to go on, I'm still recovering from starting the Shelob bandwagon after Ang's prodding. I wanted to know why people voted against an innocent and didn't receive a decent answer. I am now in the the same position and am inclined to accept my fate and hope the village can find a wolf through my death.

Kath regarding Aber: Knowingly targeting an innocent villager? Knowingly? Which innocent would this be Garin, how would she know unless she were a wolf
Exactly.
My vote against Aber stands, remember I retracted from you Kath.

More Garin arguing, eh? As I've said before, Garin just gets more suspicious by the minute. I still suggest we try not to make the same mistake as we did with Shelob and focus on only one person though. And Garin, please contribute your ideas to our proposals and don't scoff at them. Your contributions will be telling if you're an innocent.

Now, Roa makes an excellent point about a Wayne-Garin connection; something I'd never quite noticed before. I want to go back and re-read Wayne's post, but I assure you, I'll be back.

However, we don't quite have a great window of opportunity though, and not nearly enough chance to lynch someone just because they have been unhelpful, so I think it's best if there is an in-depth study of each player. Maybe it will lead us to something we didn't pick up on before. I know that other villages have tried this before and I'm not quite sure if it'll be successful, but I can't think of anything else that we should do. I'm really stuck, because there are too many cases right now and I can't process them all. Maybe we should write the wolves a note:

Dear Wolves,
If you could do us a teeny favour and let something slip, that'd be awesome. Thank you.

Sincerely,
Your Terrorized Village

Think it'll work?

Abercrombie, I know I am innocent but have a tendency to seem wolfish. Those who voted for me tend to be ignorant innocents but a wolf is in the mix. You can save me tonight, due to retractable votes, but I would be suprised to survive the night. I think I see a wolf and my death will tell very much.

I don't have time this evening or tomorrow morning to read any new posts before the vote.

But I also think there may be a wolfish connection between these two.I will try to go into detail a bit more tomorrow about their posts but now I'm pressed for time.

++Wayne

I've just thought his posts are odd, The Garin situation is a little annoying, I hate the bickering.But I guess the paranoia is starting to set in. I will stick with my vote now,not neccisarily to lynch him tonight, but maybe to look sternly at tomorrow. Garin's doing a fine job of getting himself lynched, without my vote against him.

Hope we catch a wolf today!

Garin seems absolutely determined to see me dead, struggling with every post-though it evidently requires a struggle-to pin me down as a wolf; but if anything this seems to me a sign of consistency.

If only tar-ancalime had lived to tell us the tale! I'm beginning to think there might be more use in lynching Wayne after all...

But no. This time, uniquely, I must dig in deep and stick to my position; in fact, take a leaf from Garin's own book. Uncomfortable though his pleas have made me, that is one approach for a wolf about to reach the gallows; and on balance, I believe that is what Garin is likely to be.

Apart from him, I suspect both the silent ones, Wayne and Gandalf. Even if Gandalf is innocent, he's in danger of harming the village by being killed for non-participation. Kath, if Garin is indeed guilty, seems pretty solidly innocent or a complete genius.
