I still can't think what I can do to prove my innocence to the rest of you at the moment. If people are convinced that I'm a wolf, there's nothing I can do to change their minds (unless something extraordinary happens).

Anyway, while I hate that I'm on the target list there, Eomer is making sense.

It's cold, unfeeling logic, my friend. But, if you are innocent, fear not: sometimes there's just nothing you can do - and that goes for our wolves as well.

For my part, I'm mostly staying silent so the wolves in particular have no idea what I plan to do. But that's not helpful to voting and finding a wolf today.

I will say at least for tonight I have no intentions of hunting Sally or Shasta, which means I have no intentions to vote for them either. Everyone else? Well, we'll wait and see what happens.

G55 I'm feeling meh...ok, conflicted? Can't fault her for being involved more than most, but she's also said some straight inaccurate things. I think Eonwe pointed out both of them. Probably won't vote for her today.

If it means anything, believe it or not Bom, I think it more likely you were getting set up as an easy lynch today. As you said, wolves would figure I would hunt you last night, and since they decided to go for Inzil would hope we'd take that to mean you were a wolf. Which means we'd have some tricksy, sly wolves on our hands. Or you really are a wolf, pack figured I'd hunt you, which means I couldn't choose you again tonight, and thus plan to kill me next, on the chances I wouldn't have one of the other two tonight?

I need to go back to consider this Inzil-seer-McCaber thing.

Wait, does that mean that you have to change pick each Night?

edit: Yes, I'm back a bit early.

I just got done looking at Bom. Inzil definitely showed some suspicion toward's Bom. In the end Inzil voted for Cabbie. At one time it did look like Inzil might go after Bom. I didn't really see anything that Bom posted that caused suspicion. What is suspicious is that Inzil had suspicions about Bom and then the wolves kill Inzil

I think Cabbie might have voted for Inzil as a vengeance vote.

Just looking at who the wolves killed, Bom looks the most suspicious.

Here's a post to look at by Inzil. Here's a list on Bom by Inzil.

Later Inzil posted:

Then he posted:

Inzil then gives a list of the votes, and then he ends with this post:

++McCaber


He makes a very effective evil submarine, and I don't recall seeing anything from him but a couple of easy jabs at Bom.

x/d with all since #73. Well, at least the Seer's got some good leads now....

Oh. My. God. None of this showed up for me until I tried to reply . . .

++McCaber

Because Eomer's reasoning made sense.

If you are a wolf this is a very clever way to not need to state your opinions clearly. Right now, I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt, because it does make sense that you don't want the wolves to know who you find suspicious and so will be choosing, but if you're a wolf you're basically giving yourself free rein to do whatever you want.

edit: x-ed with no-one. Where are ye?

The possibilities that I can see for last Night's kill:

1) Particularly aimed at Inzil:
a) Inzil seemed a likely Seer.
b) Inzil was drawing too much attention to a wolf.


2) Inzil because he seemed a good option:
a) Boro seemed to find Bom suspicious. Bom is a wolf and didn't want to be hunted.
b) Wolves were reluctant to kill a hunter as he might have chosen one of them. But looking at Boro's posts, most of his attacks seem to be on Bom, so this is basically just 2a.
c) No-one was suspecting Inzil, so the wolves wanted to take him out early on themselves.


3) Inzil as a diversion/plan:
a) Inzil suspected McCaber and Bom. The wolves want to set those two up.
b) Wolves want to set up Bom in particular by making it seem as though 2a us the case (Possibly strengthened by 3a).
c) Boro is a wolf. He wants to set up Bom, which is why he mentioned 2a (to bring it up) and 3b (to distance himself from it). It could also involve 3a to strengthen the case against Bom.
d) Wolves want to set up Boro by making 3c seem a possibility.


So, looking at this, the two people whose deaths would tell us the most would be Boro and Bom, though I'm not sure whether I'm willing to vote for either of them. I'm willing to accept Boro as a hunter for now, and I've never played against Bom before, so while he looks suspicious, I don't know what to expect from him.

On the other hand, looking at my previous post, 1a and 1b both point to McCaber more than Bom.

But Bom seems more suspicious than McCaber to me at the moment.

Also, this post makes me suspect G55 for some reason. I'm not sure why.


Time to reread.

I will more than likely change my pick each night.

If you believe it now, believe it now. If you don't then don't. I don't see how your opinion will change in a few days if say I'm not killed yet. Either way, kill me at night, or leave me to live if the village decides to lynch me, there is going to be the chance I take a wolf with me.

It would make my job easier if a wolf wants to try to counter reveal please?

So, is the Cabbie-sub ever going to surface? I'm leaning toward him, but I'd like to hear from him before voting.

Well, the longer you stay alive, the more chance you have of taking a wolf with you, and so the more suspicious you'll look (as it would be assumed that the wolves would kill you before such a thing could occur if you really were the hunter).

She reminds me far too much of Wolfadriel, and I'll admit I don't have time to study the thread too closely. It's sort of a gut vote, but what I've seen supports it. Let's hope I'm right.

I likely won't be back toDay, as I'll be confined to my phone and the signal is rubbish at camp. Behave while I'm gone, and don't try to steal away my loyal fans.

*poses for the cameras, walks off*

Also, we need to have a talk about this script. There aren't nearly enough opportunities for Merry to fell a troll or kick a ball in a heroic fashion. Isn't this supposed to be an action movie?
