WWJ IX: Psychotic Penguins: The Crossing of Helcaraxë

[dancing spawn of ungoliant]

It's not easy to try to deal with two Days' material in 24 hours, I tell you that. *sigh* Now, about Valier and Diamond...

As has been pointed out, it was funny how Valier right away said that Boro is definitely a WP. She suspected almost everyone else, too, but didn't directly say them to be WPs. Enca was the only one that Valier didn't accuse right away, but said that she doesn't know if Enca is guilty or not.

I, too, found this odd:

The arrow issue was explained to Valier already in last village, so why to make a fuss about it again...

All in all, by reading Valier's posts I think she is usually more independent. She makes decisions based on gut feelings, states whom she suspects and votes. Now she seems to be trying to sway and take contact with other villagers more.

Diamond, then. Late on Day 1 she said that I feel innocent, but on Day 2 before she hadn't done "any sort of analyse" of my posts she said that she may vote for me. It was a bit same thing with Valier. Di said that "Valier seems her usual self, nothing much to comment on, could be anything", and later that she had a little nagging feeling about her among many others, but on Day 2 she just nominated Valier to one of her four possible lynchees without really explaining it. Oh well. It seemed to be pretty much the same list that the bunch of people whom Boro thought innocent.

Di has posted those summaries a lot and I was honoured to receive one, too, although I wonder why she left my suspicions about Mac being a WP and Jenny being the Cobbler out. I tried looking at Di's other analyses if she left something out of them, too, but they seem pretty sound to me.

Di's reaction to Lalaith asking if she should reveal who the innocent is whom she dreamed of is interesting. She highlights her own innocence twice, but advices Lalaith not to reveal the dream unless the dreamee is about to get lynched. Other than these things she's behaved much like I would have expected from an innocent Di.

Apologies, I meant Jenny.
