I'm not so much suspicious of Mith's post as I am, the sudden spurt of posts after it...I mean after a pretty slow day, between mostly Lommy, Rikae, Mac, and myself, everyone starts popping out of the woodworks.

Maybe I'm not taking into consideration timezones and people being out for various reasons, it's just interesting how multiple people popped out.

Well, I'm in the same timezone as Mith is (and I usually am here around this time anyway), but I don't know why Shasta suddenly chose to appear...

edit: also, by the way he started his post, it seems like Shasta had just been following the thread, and decided to comment at that point.

Anyway, I have to go in the next half-hour, so it's nice that there are more people around.

But everyone suddenly seems quite innocent to me toDay...

Well it does seem scarily like "ok now somebody else posted I may have to jump in too and stop hiding in my corner" but I won't start pointing fingers at people because of that - maybe our loudmouth debate scared off some people who were encouraged by less aggressive and loud others appearing? Not that we were actually being aggressive...

Yes but () Dr Boro, my problem is that I'm going in cycles - game by game I learn to be more and more self-confident and once I finally start trsuting myself I get everything totally wrong and then I have to start building the trust all over again. *sigh* But don't you worry about that and I never said I'm not trusting my gut-feeling of you for now - I am - but I keeping it open for revision (which is just sensible).

I should vote and go to sleep soon. It's not like I'm tired, but it's soon 2am here and I'd better be sensible. I'm tempted to vote Sally but I don't like toDay feels to be turning into a huge Sallywagon - either her mates are abandoning her for good or we're mistaken and she's innocent, and in both cases there'll be too little to analyse toMorrow. I was leaning towards voting her but now I might vote Mac just to give an option.

Ugh this is going to sound terrible, but I really have not considered who I would vote for, other than Nogrod and well I said I'd wait.

Lets see...I'm good with Rikae, Mith, Nerwen and Lommy. I also like what I've recently seen from Shasta, his recent posts remind me of our time in Fea's Republic. I just want to see more.

I am not as sold on Inziladun's innocence as I was yesterday, but don't feel it's worth the pursuit of a vote today.

My suspicions on Mac are more about his reaction to my reasons for voting for Nogrod, so today I won't vote for him.

I'm also more suspicious of Kath, but well she's not feeling well and I would like to wait at least until tomorrow.

Izzy I think is a co-conspirator, her 'sarcastic' responses to Rikae look very suspicious and I will vote for her today.

Gwath showed up late yesterday, we'll see what happens today, but my courtesy is only for a day, and if he doesn't show up and to start showing some good, I will vote for him.

Sally...has completely slipped my mind and I have no idea, which means it's probably not a good idea for a vote. Same with Eonwe, his appearance has me slightly suspicious, yep it's really just a gut-feeling right now, so same with sally.

I have no idea who to vote and I should have gone to sleep around half an hour ago.

Ok, well I'm going to vote:

++Sally

Because she is in deep hibernation under Rudolph, and in voting she only seems to want to vote because she is is forced to, as if she doesn't really want to be answerable for her actions.


edit: triple post. 'Tis a quiet time again now.

This has been a busy RL day, and the time draweth nigh that I must be off yet again to work.

Boro seems to have been pretty active toDay. Beyond disagreeing with him about the ghost-lynchings I have no particular inclinations.

Mac seems different today, more reserved, but flu could explain that.

Lommy sets off no warning bells.

Shasta hasn't really been here today. Could be RL stuff, like me. I'm not feeling much like he's a mutineer, at any rate.

Izzy has an air of crafty menace about her, raising some hackles when she appears, then somehow sinking back into the gloom unnoticed. Then you forget about her until she posts again. Now she says something is 'so freaking irritating and obvious', then doesn't explain what she means. And votes herself?! Would a real mutineer do that? If so, why?

Kath gets a pass for illness.

Ëonwë is another one whom it's easy for me to forget. He seems to make decent points and doesn't feel very foul.

Nogrod isn't here. I have to wonder if the lack of a night kill isn't somehow connected with his absence, but there's absolutely no proof of that.

Gwath gets a pass unless I see something more concrete.

Mith looks to be innocent and helpful.

With a decision having to come now, it's:

++ Sally, for the strange behaviour after the Rikae reveal.

Night, all.

Edit- x'd with Rikae
