Well Gaunt it seems we have a set up unknown to any of us here so you may not be at a disadvantage!!!

That prophecy is creeping me out but having the kind of brain that finds word puzzles too fascinating I fear it may become a distraction. It is certainly unusual for someone to get lynched on 2 votes.

And Groin seems to have taken up my mantle of wanting Nogrod dead just to help clear the mind!!!

I have about another half hour now and plan to return till the end after work but I seem to be incubating a head cold so if I can't "head it off at the pass" I may have to curtail again... hope not but if my head is still cottonwooly I won't be much help.

Hey, I've made it past Day 3 and have been innocent before. Of course I usually wind up being a misguided ordo who suspects all the wrong people...so maybe you should just lynch me.

But the problem is I really had nobody. No one single post caught my eye as suspicious. My random vote would've literally been random...I would've closed my eyes and pointed at a name. That's not a fair way to vote which is why I didn't do it, and I truly didn't have time to consider my options. Surely if I had voted, I would probably be criticised for my choice and how I went about it....so it's a lose-lose situation for me.

Something's wrong with me...I can't seem form opinions of anyone still. My brain must be exhausted. I might be around later, but I can't be sure so I think I'll vote soon. But who to vote for? Hmmm. I might just have to use the process of elimination to come to a decision..

How sweet and familiar this feels again! I mean I was getting worried yesterDay when basically no one wished to see me to the gallows! That was weird.

But now as everything is back to normal... I'll start playing.

Two or four werewolves, together or against each other - or two pairs of lovers, or whatever, we need to start catching them.

I'll start with looking at that "wannabe-bandwagon". It looks too delicious for a careless baddie not to take part in...
