Just a couple of thoughts before I go to sleep. (I started this before I made my last post but decided to post this in whole)

It may be one of the lynchers of Eomi was a wolf. It goes quite without saying if you look at basic random probabilities of any collection of four dwarves (wizards, hobbits, skinchanger Beornings). Those pressing on that fact and not noticing any other possibilities I still find a bit dubious then as I can't see any possible reason for any wolf to get it's furry claws involved in such an open matter. As you can see, almost no one has remade the suspicions on Kathin or Glóanna toDay because all this concentration on the last Day's last moments... Good for them if they're furry indeed.

Most of us have generation-old knowledge and experience of these things and any sane wolf among us would avoid that kind of publicity as it's just the same for them who of us innocents gets killed. Why would a wolf wish to kill Eomi last Night, I mean so desperately as to start a campaign or trying openly to make it happen? Why? Look at what has happened to me as I was the first to actually suggest there was something fishy in Eomi's posts yesterDay! (some others had suspected him too earlier but only vaguely so far) Please give me a bit more credit... Were I a wolf I would have voted conveniently for Glóanna or Kathin about an hour before the deadline (were they innocents) as I had had some points against them earlier and just watched the things unfold with a grin.

Of Eomi-voters Spawn was innocent (and had she not died the vultures lead by the wolves would have been on her toDay as it is so suspicious to be on the third place in a waggon). Beornómien feels innocent to me with her openly displayed frustration and angst in the last moments. That kind of gave me the assurance, at least for a while now. Voloin I'm a bit concerned though, as I've already said.

So back to the tracks then?

Kathin has been more than happy to try and shift the focus from the suspicions on her yesterDay to me with almost one-sided fervour. And she has been succesful, I must say. Look at her posts from this point of view and see for yourselves.

Glóanna's guilt I was doubting a bit in the end of yesterDay and now I see her even less guilty. She might be pulling it and I wouldn't be surprised for it, but she's not my top suspect right now.

Nori88 I believe was testing early in the Day and I wouldn't go on lynching him. As I said, as long as the Seer is alive I'm inclined to trust him...

Mr. Anguirelshield I'd be watching. The points made by Nori88 late yesterDay (comparing to the Valier-story) are noteworthy. Also his happiness to make something like a last call yeasterDay to say he was unhappy with Eomi gone before he was declared innocent bears notifying. How did he know he was innocent? He can say he didn't know it, but why did he declare it? To look good?

Valier the Grey is beginning to give me the creeps also. So little and so in haste. She could pull that and laugh later... I know it.

Menel-hobbit seems to be also one who is happy to join any promising bandwaggon of suspicion to make the discussion stay on the wrong tracks. I do not like the way he interacts here. Too safe and too calculated...

Obviously all of these can not be wolves. But some of them I'm sure are.

EDIT: X'd with Glóanna
