Well – Legate:

First, the “repeatedly” about the vote count. It may have been a mistake, but it could also be a way of wording the intro to the corrected vote count to insinuate it was deliberately posted wrong.

I see what Legate's saying now. I read this at first as a suggestion that Aganzir was lynched for looking seerish (since he already said he suspected her voters), but now I see he's referring to the fact that she couldn't have revealed at the last minute if she were, right? My mistake.

This is contradictory:

Then there's this stuff:

This sentence does two things – brings up the “RL things” and dismisses them. That way he can both discredit and suspect at once... very nice for a wolf who hopes to get one, but better both, of us lynched.

But, having gone over Legate's posts again, I've come to the conclusion that the main thing that I find creepy about him is not so much what he says, as what he doesn't say. He follows other people's track (he seems to have predetermined that Mac would be an easy lynch toDay) or says uncontroversial things. I'm used to a more verbose, and more helpful, Legate.

EDIT: Spacing, x'd with Noggie, Sally, Nerwen

I do agree with this point.

Cool down Sally. Please. It's just a game after all.

Mehe don't I know it. I'm just angry that....oh, never mind. I'm not going to rant any longer. Whatever the outcome, I hope you all enjoy the rest of the game. Hopefully I'll be able to see you all the next Day, and hopefully with one less werewolf than we currently have. I'm out. Need to get to work in a couple minutes anyway.

P.S. Sorry, folks. I told Shasta I'd wake him, but he didn't respond to my IMs, so I'm guessing he's still asleep. Which is good, because if he has what I had, he feels like crap right now, so he needs it.


EDIT: Extra P.S. Won't be around for the first several hours of the next Day. My first class starts at nine (DL), and I don't know if I'll be able to get on for sure until six in the evening. Just a heads up so no one wonders where I've scampered off to.

My preference lies with Legate or Nerwen. Sally appears very innocent near the deadline, and I wouldn't like to see Rikae lynched either, and me the least.

After we see who will in the end turn out and actually vote we'll be much more wiser as to who were hiding at the last moments.

But the fact is I'm not very happy with any of the candidates right now. Of those three I'd pick Mac though.

So so so sorry - I didn't guess there would be so many posts, I was hoping to have time to post long and well, but it took me around 40 minutes to read the thread so now I have, what, 4 minutes for posting...

To be honest I'm quite baffled by toDay's posts. Rikae looks better, Sally looks worse, and I don't have time for more analysis, I'll do that toMorrow...

So without further explanations,

++ Mac

Because his posts strike me as furry and I believe he might well be a wolf, and his death will reveal much in any case.
