Volo has been trapped in the Barrow!

*sigh*

The only wibe I got, Sally had to mention it just in front of my nose.

While reading through the thread I got the feeling that somebody might be trying to frame Lommy. I mean she was quite in the middle of everything a while ago and slowly some people started calling her innocent. Something feels fake there.
The best "proof" to Lommy's innocence is exactly this, to me.

And with that idea I stumbled upon Boro's post #74. It fits well to what I thought of and I can't really say what it is but Boro is... overdoing it? Not exactly...

Ok, I noticed that I don't really have anything to say so I'll reread stuff.

Eh? What's Boro overdoing, Volo? I can't really see what you're driving at here.

I don't understand either Sally's or Gwath's vote for Boro -- neither explained properly, and they both go up a couple notches on my suspicion meter for it. In fact, I may as well give that suspicion-meter -- however, in the interest of accuracy, it may not look typical:

Combination of Wolfish Irresponsibility (seeming eagerness to get a bandwagon rolling) and Wolfish Defensiveness:

Gwathy

Wolfish Defensiveness without Wolfish Irresponsibility:

Macalaure

Wolfish Irresponsibility without Wolfish Defensiveness:

Sally
Durelin
Lommy
Menel

Submarine-ishness:

THE Ka
McCaber
Mithalwen

None of the above:

Nogrod
Boro
Volo

...and all people with two "o"'s in their name, by default...

What to make of this? I'm afraid I can't decide. Sometimes apparent irresponsibility is just pot-stirring... sometimes apparent defensiveness is just ordoish indignation... often the newbie/oddball who looks most suspicious on day one is an ordo. Frequently, very frequently, the people who avoid all errors are evil... bah. I'm talking myself in circles... I'll await further developments.

EDIT: X'd with everything from Mr. 88's post #88, and fixed Volo quote.

Oh, I left Nerwen out...
she goes in the "Neither" category, spoiling the nice double-o theme, or possibly in the "Irresponsible" one.

Boromir, I got quite worried for you getting a second vote, as the stuff I said are barely speculations. But your answer to me looks more evil than not, you didn't explain yourself or defend yourself but simply attacked back like trying to frighten me away.~Volo
I am very confrontational and in your face, Volo, I would have thought you would know this by now. Not because I'm rude, or I like being a big meanie, but it's what helps me. I like feeling the pressure during the day because it keeps me safe at night, but I also like attacking and putting the pressure on others because wuite frankly I like pushing people's buttons (especially the wolves)...and being blunt "in your face" does both for me.

The fact is Volo, I'm not going to defend myself, really is that going to do me any good? I'm going to be me, which means I'm going to be confrontational.

As far as your "speculation" against me, it was some good speculating, but it's not valid and you're barking up the wrong tree. I thought it sounded all too contrived and fake. Why? Because I know you are very crafty and as a wolf you can make your argument look logical and wise. I explained why it looked fake, and seeing as you haven't gone back to change anything, it still looks fake.

Nogrod, may I ask your thoughts on Gwath and Volo? Mostly you've been focusing on Mac, and you said you want to give other considerations...well I do happen to think Gwath and Volo have been posting enough to form some sort of judgement on.
