I haven't made anything like that yet, anyway. But it would be useful.

But I think you did something of the sort with your list already - pointing out possible scenarios and stuff in one collected post - which is good.

It would be nice to see even more collected effort to be sure, if you have something where to construct it from easily. I mean I'm not saying others should take huge undertakings while I just hang up with other things, but the idea was initially, that if you have some things ready at hand you could just pass to us - and maybe give them a second or thirtd thought yourselves while making a post on them?

Anyway, I'm off for a moment now...

I'm torn.

As much as I'd like to go "told you so!" on all of you, I would also like to actually learn something myself. Legate > Rikae > Nogrod > phantom would be my order, in that case.

Not like anybody would listen to me, of course.

Oh, one thing:

We're eight people with 2 or more wolves among us who would love to prevent our vote from going through. Even though I'm usually against organized voting schemes, I think it would be best if we discussed who to scry but let Agan & Greenie lead the voting.

A potential minor hiccup: I have work very early tomorrow morning which means I need to go to sleep within an hour. So - any preferences? I'm leaning towards Legate or possibly Nog or Rikae.

I'm fine with either Legate or Nog (and if you vote for me, I'll follow that vote, since we're better off with me as a known innocent than risking a tied vote and no scry at all).

Obviously in such a way, I am more inclined towards Nog. But either way I agree that we should just follow one direction and not split the vote, so even if you choose me, I'll go with voting me (regardless of how useful or useless it is).

You aren't considering the phantom at all, therefore, I assume.

Not really. I think Rikae is right, his role wouldn't tell us much, and besides, even if he is a wolf he can't do much harm that could be prevented by us knowing his role.
