One thing I might say (having just spent a little thought of Lottie's rant while the half-time of the match).

We might believe that Lottie actually thought that Firefoot is a wolf for there certainly is rivalry between the packs and they do not want to go even one down to the other pack. So it would be reasonable to give the village the hint if you had a clue in a situation you knew you were a goner.

But was she correct in thinking Firefoot a wolf (or that Mac is for that matter)?

Or is there a scheme she could be pulling off?


EDIT: Aha... it seems this was already under discussion...

Well, Nerwen said Mac is a wolf too, so there's that. Firefoot is a whole different matter. Could be a wolf, certainly, but we know Lottie is wrong about Legate too, so I wouldn't bet on it.

Not much time right now.

I have to say, as unhappy as I am with Nerwen's nonsense, it did bring us a wolf. Lottie was under suspicion, but it still could have taken a while to bring her down.

I still hope that she's Sally's bluffing lover, and that she will join us soon. A not unlikely ranger protection could delay that, which is even better: It slows down the killing (which is something we could really use), and it means we'll be able to give her one more Night's worth of info.

Hm.

I really got the impression that Mac was 100% certain I was lying about being the seer. If there had been doubt in his mind, I think he would have reacted differently.

That could, of course, have been because he was innocent, but it could also be that someone I named as innocent (Firefoot, Lommy, Boro, tp) was in his pack.

Ok, Shasta has voted for Lottie now. I say we empower Shasta (although it will be best to wait in case of any last-minute developments).

Firefoot's post isn't going anywhere. Even if it isn't discussed again, it will be a small matter for the living to remember it toMorrow, when they're discussing our contribution.

I wouldn't say it's there (Lottie seemed to confess but it doesnt make Nerwen's revealment 100% fool-proof) - even if I'm leaning to trust it more than not at the moment.

I think all of the four qualify as possible wolves, even several of them, well all of them could be...

Not Mac's packmates they couldn't.

I was thinking especially of Firefoot.

Yeah, but I thought of them generally being wolves to start with...

It looks like it's bedtime for me, so

++Shasta

Looks like the most sensible thing to do. Good night my lovelies.

Lottie is going to be so disappointed to find the seer isn't here.

Unless, of course, the unknown role chose to empower the Seer upon the Seer's death, so that the Seer is allowed two Living dreams per night even after death, on the condition that the results are sent to the player of his choice among the Living and he never sees the results himself. And the power only lasts so long as the unknown remains among the Living, and upon the death of the unknown the Seer entirely loses the ability to dream.

Just saying.

Haha. Firefoot shooting herself to the foot?

And vengeful and angry Lottie shooting straight to the torso then?

It would be nice we'd used a system confirmed by a wolf to tell the people what we know...
