Yesterday there was still Mith (and to a lesser extent, Form) to focus on. The plan was to keep my vote till the end and if I still couldn't save myself, THEN reveal. Luckily though people decided to vote for Mith instead. Today though I'm pretty much by myself as a lynch target.

The idea was to get enough suspicion that the wolves wouldn't kill me, but not enough to be lynched. It worked for a while.

That's what I try to do as innocent too. It's a tender balance... I know it (just look at this game!!! ).

And we need some new candidates now...

Happily I had started reading Rikae as I realised she has been left quite unnoticed and I had some suspicions slowly developing in the back of my head. Now it seems all the more urgent to get it done.

Nog, are you saying that Shasta's revelation should let Aganzir off the hook? Because in your last post, if I recall correctly, you suspected her as well.

Not the least! She's the best candidate I have at the moment. But there's two of them left and betweem them there are connections which need "to work"...

First the wolf-kills.

They spent the two first Nights killing Kath. The second Night is pretty understandable as they had a secure kill then and they must have been feeling a little bad they failed on the first one. But why her in the first place?

On Day1 she posted twice only saying she's in a hurry. Then she voted Eönwë accompanied by this:
Quote:
Alright, I'm giving up because I need to go to bed and I've people wanting to use the computer. Random vote because hey, it's Day 1. So truly random, I'm voting for the last person to post.
Now did she hit it right? If she did I'd understand the wolves thinking her the seer and wishing to do away with her whatever the cost - not the least remembering the tight spots Eönwë was the first Days.

And how he has not been given almost any attention after that (but by Shasta...)!


Then they went on Dury. If the above is correct then her posts & voting for Mith might have gotten the wolves to their feet once again.

If not... well they both still fit the general description of being good players even if from the quiter end of the scale.


And then Sally - who had actually tried to help Mith. I'm not sure has anyone looked at Sally's suspicions? I mean is she someone who leaves as little trails as possible? At least with Kath and partly by Dury (remember we have read her through a looking glass only because she was our seer) that could be counted as the common denominator as well.


But I'd consider bringing Eönwë back up in the front of suspicions again...

Now Boro you speak such a lot of sense I'm getting scared...

But going back to your earlier post.

Maybe it just looks that way because Kit isn't around for the deadline and she usually has to vote early, but even though she is still pretty active, her votes just look like she's trying to stay out of trouble.
That was exactly what I thought in the first couple of Days but after she has also voted "well" I have kind of let her slip away from my radar as there have been more suspicious candidates to fill my mind. Voting for Mith that early in the Day is not too risky and would be a good move indeed - and possibly even agreed by Mith.

OOOOOPS!

I just saw something raising my eyebrows a bit in the thread...
*goes back to see and probably need a cigarette*

EDIT: explanation to the last three lines - x'd with Boro & Eomer...
