Don´t want to go meta on everyone again but it is new years eve and I´m sneaking onto a computer at a party to do this so don´t expect much in depth analysis.
So early on in the Day I was thinking that I wouldn´t vote for Huey, Sally or Pitch (for reasons I stated earlier) and would probably go for one of the quiet ones (partly because I think we may have a quiet wolf or Cobbler and also on a selfish level with so few of us it makes it less fun to play if the active players are killed)
Now Huey, Sally and Pitch seem to be suspecting each other and I don´t know what to think. And Morsul has said some stuff which is usettling...

Fair enough. Enjoy yourself!

Oh great. Just gone back through the thread and it seems we have a vote each for Huey, Nerwen and Pitch. Not mad about any of these choices. I would be up for voting for Boro (Cobbler or wolf acting as cobbler?) or, under certain circumstances, for Morsul. But with so few of us, it seems silly to start vote-spreading.

Regarding Pitch's question to me, I thought I read more than one person say Boro looked all right today, but I may have misremembered when making that post.

Well, since he's dropped his random goofy act he certainly looks better than he did yesterDay (which is no great feat)--which makes me raise an eyebrow at Lal's willingness to vote him based on my rehashed arguments from yesterDay.

(x-ed with Lalaith and Sally)

Good question. I thought Shasta, but then I always suspect Shasta, even when we´ve both been wolves together!
But of the quiets I actually have most mixed feelings about Morsul right now.
Of the three we have votes for at the moment, I´d be most inclined to go for Nerwen, mainly because I don´t think either Pitch or Huey are guilty. I´ll go and have another glass of champagne and think about it...

A flag is raised. This looks like a possible attempt by Lalaith at avoiding "ownership" of her future vote. Note that this way she doesn't have to make a case against, or even express actual suspicion of whoever she ends up voting.

Will comment further when I've read the rest of the thread.

Edit: x'd with Pitch.

OK, voting time approaches. Of the three that have votes so far, I don't feel comfortable with lynching Huey or Nerwen (since she's back), and certainly not myself. I said I could see myself voting Lalaith, and nothing she's said so far has really changed this, so that's what I'll do most likely, but I'll vote to save myself if I have to.

Why the vote for Huey?

Wolf-on-wolf is of course nothing new/nothing that doesn't happen in almost every game, but with just 2, I can't imagine it being a successful strategy. Especially, a first time wolf bussing his only pack mate, with a seer around that the lone wolf also has to avoid/survive.

If anything sally's vote is more wolf-on-wolf, but even for the reasons given that by the time sally voted there was really no saving Rune anyway is a stretch for Day 1.

Seems pretty pointless to suspect the 2 remaining living Rune voters, considering it's just the day after their votes lynched a wolf.
