I see what you mean about Lommy, too. I'd be okay Mediumizing her as well.

I would be leaning towards Rikae, Greenie, and Lommy, in that order, but imagine if we Mediumized Brinn first chance we could after last game....

Brinn - same. I agree with many of her points, especially regarding BG. She's basically the Rune of this game for me.

Lemon-lime zone:

Rikae - yesterDay seemed generally like going with very rational analysis that I could essentially follow. Would like to see more from them still toDay.
Lottie - does the fact that your vote from yesterday agrees precisely with our innocent list make you feel better about him, or worse about them?

Confused. I feel stronger about Nog, Kath, and Form at this point, but I definitely am still wary of Legate. I'm starting to agree that if anyone votes Kath or Form, it would be a good idea to Medium them, just so they don't get lost in the louder Nog-Legate controversy.

Fully expecting another 4 page explosion in 2 hours, but it has been quite a diplomatic village so far...all the business of reasoning and talking peacefully with murderers.

And having just reread, I'd be generally okay Mediumizing Greenie. I felt like she might have just been rephrasing other people's comments, but on looking back, I think she got in first on the Legate-as-Seer-target idea.

I feel like Nog has attracted more suspicion today than Kath or Form; maybe it would be worth Mediumizing a Kath/Form voter if it looks like the vote might be split between one of them and Nog? That way the wolves might need to show their hand, if there's two of them on the block.

Double-checking the rules, we can wait until the last minute to vote. I'd really rather not - I need sleep - but if things look dicey we can hold off.

... Ohhhh, it's so tempting. (Don't say it too loud, though; I'm told that summons Cobbler55 to the thread...)

I'm not going to argue with that order. From Rikae's latest post, they look set to vote Nog at the moment. Greenie looks to be somewhere between Nog and Legate, and Lommy... could do anything.

Back on topic, our prospective wolves all seem to be suspecting one another. That's kind of ominous. I've looked back through Kath today (well, page 7), and I still think she's dodgy: she's clearly decided to pursue Nog, and is latching onto the BG/spot-the-gifted thing as a target of opportunity. Might suggest BG is more likely to be innocent, but again, how?

BG might just be making some very poor decisions. I actually think they're more likely to be innocent, since I think Pitch or Form are probably the cobbler.

You know what...there has been remarkably a lot more talk about either

A. Who's a gifted
or
B. Who's a cobbler

Then who are actual wolves. *headdesk* Gotta love how these games play out sometimes.

In Her name.

Speaking of Brinn, though, their latest post is pure filler. "Why are we discussing Gifteds?" has been said by half a dozen people at this point.

As for Mac on Shasta in #282: I think those are the same, and the first one killed me!

I think she was the first one to suggest it might be a NW tactic, though.
