I know, I'm going to try (and have been trying - I've been very good for me this game, you must admit ), but unfortunately there's only so much I can do as my time is limited. I know this upsets you but I think you have been a bit busy yourself this game so try to understand. Yes, we're down to the wire, but that doesn't change people's lives.

Erm, yeah... *more hugs for Mith*

So, here's looking at you, Nog...

Day 1, voted for me because of a supposed 'slip'. Went a little crazy about the roles/assignments. Went after Rikae for that, now known a cobbler - obviously why she was playing so boldly from Day 1.
Day 2, late vote for Lommy. Go with the flow. He could have been made a wolf on Night 1 and onward.
Day 3, voted for Nilp.
On Day 4 he turned around and argued why we shouldn't lynch Nilp. Fea switches from her vote for Nilp after one post from Nog about not lynching him. Was gung-ho against cobbler-Rikae.
Day 5...was convinced Mac was a wolf. Now he thinks I am.

I think you've accused me of "going with the flow" and taking opportunities. I believe I could accuse you of the same thing. I find you and Fea a possible wolf-pair as I do not believe you have suspected each other, and there was that interesting communication on Day 4. Also, with Nerwen dead and proven a wolf, Mac's point about you yesterDay looks pretty good.

Fea...

Has been on the edge of things this entire game, partly because of her posting restrictions it seems.

Day 1, she did her random meta-vote for Brinniel, giving her two votes.
She voted for Lommy on Day 2 helping seal her fate. If she was made a wolf on Night 1, Lommy had a lot of suspicion and I don't find this at all a completely unlikely vote.
She voted for Nilp on Day 3, as well, and switched her vote from him at a word from Nog.
Voted for Rikae near the end on Day 4, as did I, so *shrug*.
Voted for Nerwen yesterDay. Now, she did vote early for her. Her convictions were fairly strong. This could have been for survival, or because the wolves might have expected Nerwen to be assassinated.

Mith

Claimed to "deliver" wolves Days 2 and 3. But since then, she's just been skating by, even though we don't know what the "phantom's apprentice" is. Maybe the wolves do and that's why she's still here.

Lari

Claims to be the hunter. Easy role to claim if she's lying, but she'd have to know there wasn't one.

Nilp

Cobbler? Or just Nilp? But I guess not a wolf.

Yes, I can't supply you with seer-like knowledge, and certainly can't "deliver" ducks. But finding out my role also means we've lost. Not that I know what I'm talking to.

Kill me, the wolves kill another innocent tonight, and it's just 2 against 2, right?

Perhaps you can at least tell me, Nog, why you are inclined to follow Mith's vote toDay? I think you owe me that, at least.

I'm not so much following her vote (I hadn't actually paid heed to her voting before making my "case" against you toDay) but feeling some relief seeing her going the same way.

What I mean by her post convincing me more about it is what she says about the virtuoso performance of a duckling - which is you and your "wolf-tracker" -thing.

Okay. Maybe Mith is bluffing and only pretends to be a neutral who can choose her side as she feels. Maybe. But at least now it looks more far-fetched than your ducklery.

Edit: x'd with Lari & Dury

Btw. Dury, might Lari be your mate then?

I think she could do it quite boldly without a knowledge of other hunters around. Looking at the different roles in this game she could quite nicely say there must be two different hunters etc. if someone challenged her claim.

I'm starting to wonder if she's the only one on the village's side, yes. I guess I'll see if she shows up toDay.

What's funny, Nog is this - if you really don't believe me, why do you believe my information? And why did you actually use it in your earlier posts toDay as fact, in order to show how I might be a wolf?

Unfortunately I have to run here in a few minutes. Oh dear, just as things are getting so fun...

(Crossed with Lari, obviously.)

What information might you mean; the number of ducks? I think I already speculated on that in my post #1196:

(She isn't giving us less ducks than there are because there would be at least three of them then and they would have won already - so the question becomes: would she benefit of trying to make us believe there are more ducks there actually are?)
Or did you have something else in mind?
