I myself got the bad vibe from Greenie. Her painting of the worst-case scenario felt somewhat... mischevious. Additionally Agan liking Greenie instead of finding her suspicious points to an abnormality. This is just a hunch and I'll add that I've found Greenie suspicious all the time after her first game in which she was Wolf. But what do you think?
As you see, he was pondering the possibility of your being evil in the very same post. It's not really like he 'didn't say a word about' you and 'only suspected Greenie' but then all of a sudden voted you for no reason than you already had a vote. Some more twisting going on here?
And to be fair, I think he had a point - you Finns all have a long tradition of being at each other's throats in almost every single game, and Volo knows you all quite well, so I think I understand why your lack of suspicion of Greenie seemed eyebrow-raising to him, maybe pointing to you two being packmates.

I'd consider putting Kath into the Moderately Loud group, just to be fair. I think she has posted more of substance than the others.

And as for sally, if she doesn't show up today, she'll be modfired.

As I see it, that hardly counts as suspicion. The possibility of me doing something as a baddie doesn't make me a baddie, and someone saying so doesn't make me think they are actually suspecting me. And I never said he only voted for me because I already had a vote!

Hahaha! We might abide by the stereotype of Finns being aggressive and violent, but at least we aren't quiet!

Yes, Kath has posted a bit more (though not toDay, but yesterDay she did have some longer ones). Even though her reasoning for her vote on Day 1 still bothers me, because I felt I gave a good reason to vote for Glirdan and she said I didn't, and then she said something about him adapting Agan's plan to find the cobblers, which is not correct, he mentioned the idea but never explained how it would work. Perhaps she was too busy to really look closely, I don't know.

I would feel bad about voting Sally, cause she seems to only be absent due to sickness, and like you said, she may be mod-fired anyway so there's no point in wasting the lynch.

So I'm leaning towards Form, Eomer and TEW. All three of them have given some shoddy reasoning for one or more of their votes, and they all of this careless air about them. I feel like one of them could be a wolf (or the BW) just trying to skate through unnoticed. I'm leaning most towards Eomer now out of the three, but I would be willing to vote any of them.

Guess what was my code for "I think X is the cobbler"? The person whose name I've bolded last before saying I want tea! Wilwa you're a psychic.

ARRRGH! My internet connection died last night!

Oh, well, at least I was right in suspecting Agan all along.

But well-played, Wilwa! I'd come to the conclusion you were innocent and Form was Ferny.

1. *facepalm**facepalm**facepalm*

2. Wow, you wolves were orginized.

3. When Sallycakes told me who the baddies were after I died, she started with

"Agan"

and I thought "Again? What does she mean by again? I'm confused!" and then after about a minute I thought "wait...she doesn't mean...Agan's a wolf? Noooooo...yes? Whaaaaa?" And then Greenie and Vanilwuffin were total surprises, too, but since I hadn't thought as much about them, it wasn't so shocking.

*note to self: if Agan's not coming after me, she's probably evil*.

Nice job, wolves and Ferny! Looking over things after I was taken out, I started second-guessing Agan a bit, but Greenie mostly looked good except for her vote for TEW. I was totally blindsided by Wilwa's cobblerism. I had Pitch down as the likely Ferny.

Oh, well. At least I only killed one of the Gifteds, and I wasn't fooled by Shasta. Being an annoyance to the wolves and forcing them to Night-kill you is a great honor for an ordo.

My last Day alive, I'd thought to try and counter what Shasta was saying about wanting to give the BW a hint about Tom. I thought if I challenged Shasta on that, maybe I could fool the wolves, and more importantly, the BW, into thinking I was Tom, leaving the real one able to take out the BW.
It made no difference in the end, but I was pleased to see Tom alive at the end of my last Night.

Great game concept and execution from Boro, and Fea's efforts on the narrations were highly original.
