I'm replying as I read the thread, so forgive me if the same points have been addressed by others.

One thing that bothers me is Mith suspicions about Lmp being the Seer. She said it twice that she's quite sure about it yet the remaining wolves didn't kill him during the night. Is Lmp one of the wolves?

LMP could be one of the wolves, since
Mith tried to label him as the seer and therefore make us want to keep him alive. Looking back at
Mith's posts, it's evident that she was playing pretty boldly, posting a lot but getting very indignant if she was accused. This might have been a trick she hoped would clear a fellow wolf (note
might).

Having helped lynch a werewolf is not necessarily proof of innocence, as
SamwiseGamgee said. It's true that you did opt to vote for the wolf instead of
Gurthang, who had the next highest number of votes, but even so -- voting for a wolf does not always mean innocence, and repeating how one has helped lynch a wolf is even worse (cite Eomer in WW7, if such references are permitted).
I looked over
SpM's nice little chart of voting stats, and I think it's interesting how the wolves apparently did not try to divert suspicion onto
Gurthang after it seemed that
Mith was the primary target. If the wolves voted late, perhaps it was too late for them to do so, but it could have been possible when
Mith had 6 votes (which was a plateau for some time) and many villagers had not yet voted.
Nonnacedak brought
Mith's vote count up to six; while she had six votes, these people voted for others:

14. Lalaith for Meneltarmacil (Gurthang 3; Mithalwen 6; Firefoot 1; Meneltarmacil 2; Alcarillo 1; Durelin 1)

If any in this group had been wolves, it would have made more sense to vote for
Gurthang rather than those they chose instead, who had only one or two votes. Although the wolves could have decided to give up since
Mith was likely to be lyched, it was still early enough to tip the scales.
I therefore am suspicious of
Gil, because when
Gurthang had 2 votes and Mith had 3, he voted for
Gurthang to tie it, possibly hoping that others would bandwagon on
Gurthang.

Yes, LMP, I was agreeing with what you said -- remember that you were the one who brought it up. I thought Gurthang's words seemed a little suspicious at first, paired with the fact that he spoke up right away (seemed a little eager to me), but I am no longer suspicious of him.

The Beorning kind of acts randomly, doesn't s/he? It doesn't matter much to him/her who dies -- that's the role. If anything, I'd think the Beorning would try to avoid killing those s/he had mentioned, to separate him/herself from the victim as much as possible.
I'll vote around midnight, I think. I'll be looking at the stars, I suppose. Sometimes they make me feel less lonely...
