Ah! A nice welcome home after being gone all day.
First things first:

Now for a closer look at other things.

Bloody hell. A lot of stuff about the lover pairings, which it's really hard to keep track of with a five year old little girl tugging on my sleeve .
So it seems clear we've got one wolf down. Of the other two, I'm leaning toward Shasta very possibly being one of them. I know he has RL stuff going, but he just feels like the classical submarine wolf: doing well at blending into the background quietly, avoiding controversy and notice.
Who else? Wilwa is starting to worry me. ToDay she seems to really be making a point of saying 'Look at me! I'm here! I'm helping!'
Also:

I don't really get why he objected to this.
Admittedly, that was a knee-jerk reaction. I was thinking: 'Sally said she didn't have a wolf. So why would this be a good idea?' It made sense afterward, and I waited around for Sally, who ultimately didn't show up.

Want a cracker? Seems I saw that earlier toDay....

That doesn't sit well with me. I don't care for the scrutiny of Sally's wordings. I think she's got a plan going, and that looks too much like prying for prying's sake.

Let's see, what else?

Because, ever since she started playing, she said that narrations never gave away who the attempted Night kills were.
I still don't see how anyone could have missed the fact that Sally was the intended target, when the use of the characters in the narrative was entirely consistent with the Day 1 narrative about Glirdan and Morsul.
Overall, though. I still don't know about alona. She's been here quite a bit toDay, and nothing new really stands out as evil, I'll say that much.

Unless:
a) the ranger gives you one more Day to try

On the second one: Lottie was an ordinary innocent and I am an ordinary innocent. I do trust what the mod writes in the roles department after the narrations and the PM's he sends me concerning my role - so I tend to say I know it.

Also I know you don't know it. But I only said I know it.
I tend to be suspicious of people who make statements like 'You lose if I die.' It also worries me that he was not receptive to Sally's hints about who to vote for, knowing that she had a wolf, which forced Sally to reveal the dream earlier than she wanted. Then again, Wilwa was pushing for a reveal as well.
I feel pretty confident the final wolf is one of those two. And if Shasta's innocent, maybe both?

I'm here, Sal, able to escape for a little bit. Let's see how long I can evade my family?

Eh, okay I didn't want to admit this but I usually don't pay much attention to the narration unless it involves me. Self-centered, I know, but it's the truth. I also didn't pay much attention to which specific character people signed up for. I remember I was Janey, because I wrote an IC post in the first game, and Nog was Johnny 99 because he was my lover last game, but other than that, I really didn't pay much attention to the character names after that, hence me glancing over (not really reading) and missing that Sally's character name was used in the narration.

Hmm...not quite sure. Lari has informed me that she made it to LA in one piece, so I expect she should be on some time later to vote. Nog has gone to bed so my main source of debatey-ness is gone for the Day. We may have to send out an APB for Shasta

She's already voted for Shasta. Good to know she made it safely.

And I dunno why either. Hehe. ^_^

Yay! Well, there's Nog's suspicion of you, Inzil's suspicion of Nog, my suspicion of Shasta and Nog. It's pretty much a finger pointer contest at this point. At least we'll get a wolf toDay!

Well I'd say the other two wolves.


Here's how we stand. Well, I should say here's what we know.

Sally/Glirdan: seer/ordo
Morsul/Wilwa: hunter/unknown
Izzy/Rikae: wolf/ordo
Lottie/Nog: ordo/unknown
Shasta/Alona: unknown/Unknown
Dun/Lari: unknown/unknown



So we have five unknowns. (Six for you, of course.)

Wilwa
Nog
Shasta
Alona
Dun
Lari

One of them is the ranger, two of them are wolves. Which do you think the wolves are? *yawns* Yeah, I just need to keep on here so I don't fall asleep. I've already sent in my dream and want to be awake when Gwath responds later.
