T-I-G LVI: Panic at the Prancing Pony

[Rikae]

Day 2's voting:

Durelin voters:

Fea:
First she echoes Noggie's bizarre reasoning. Now she's trying to pass her vote off as a revenge/joke vote, but she was obviously trying to give some people (read: newbies) the impression that Nog's theory had merit here (just after saying that it's useful to discuss the ranger's identity!):

I'm very tempted to vote Dury as I don't know what she's playing at. I feel like the Ranger wouldn't make a point of making herself wraith-bait.

Right before her vote, to Nog:

Perhaps Fea-cobbler thought Nog was a wolf sacrificing his fellow-wolf Durelin? Perhaps she was indicating to her fellow wolves that she intended to sacrifice herself (she continues “support my vote if you want”)? Well, anyway, enough about her. Obviously, a very suspicious vote.

Nogrod makes the one mention of lynching Fea that sets off all the save-Fea nonsense:

Translation “Roger, cobbler tower”?

I know its IC voting, but part of me thinks that putting her as a wolf would have been genius.

Now, this is weird. Lari, what did you mean by “really not going off what Rune said”?

Rune:
votes Dury – supposedly as part of his irrational fear of Fea being lynched. What to make of that, though? Either Rune is nuts (well, more so than I already thought), Rune thinks Fea is gifted (and is nuts), or Rune is evil (and nuts).

Mira:
votes Durelin claiming her IC posting makes her suspicious. Today she's saying she wasn't following Fea, but in her vote post, she points to an earlier post for her reasoning, which is as follows (if I'm looking at the right post):

I agree with Fea. Why would a Ranger make such a point of being out in the open? That's like screaming "Here I am! Come kill me!" That's just poor gameplay in my opinion. Unless, as Fea said, Durelin is playing at something else. Seems mighty suspicious to me.

Italics mine.

Mac:
votes Durelin. He's obviously trying to save himself, which tells us pretty much nothing about him.

Nogrod:
votes Durelin reluctantly. An innocent enough vote, even if he wasn't a known innocent by now.

Conclusions:
Fea: Outrageously suspicious.
Lari: Fishy
Rune: Who knows?
Mira: Slightly fishy.
Nogrod: Innocentish.
Mac: No read based on the vote.

And a non-Dury voter: Beregond: Fishy.

I'll continue in a minute with the non-Dury voters, who really need some attention.
