Absolutely ruthless .... which is why I can't absolutely trust him now. Though I would be very suprised if he were the wolf now.~Mith
I am quite ruthless towards pack mates, and with some of the stuff you've seen me pull, it's quite understandable why you're a little leery. But, it's really when I go completely unsuspected for 3-4 days when you have to worry about me. That means I'm making good sense (and attacking my wolf mates), but I'm being unconfrontational and not getting under people's skins.

So were you Nerwen a wolf you would have been very annoyed looking at Sally going down (your last mate that is as I said there) and the way you try to bring forwards Fëa's "revelation" twice kind of looks like saying it cautiously that we should perhaps look at Fëa at the last minutes rather than lynch Sally.~Nogrod
And Mac would say my evidence is weak. Granted that's not the entire schibang against Nerwen (I wouldn't even call it the potatoes), but it looks that's a bit of a stretch.

Although I still find it hard to believe the lone wolf situation this early was planned by the wolves. Is it possible they just messed it all up?~Nogrod
I don't know if it was planned in the sense "alright let's sacrifice CoD on Day 1 and sally on Day 3." But perhaps it was generally planned that McCaber would go after his wolf mates to make him look better, and hopefully there's a couple innocents lynched in between. Really who could have seen a last minute bandwagon against CoD, would end up lynching a wolf? I doubt CoD's two partners were. With all the attention Lal and I had been gathering, who could have seen sally's lynching on Day 3? Granted she had been growing in suspicion, but with how spread the votes were, how many options you had to go at the end, who saw sally's lynching until the end?

It would be a big risk, but that doesn't make it careless or stupid. That makes it risky, and dangerous, but high risk can bring high reward. Everyone thought I had just insured village victory by saying I was the ranger, when no one was suspecting me, and I the last wolf to fend for herself. I crunched the numbers, and it was a calculated risk, it paid off. It could have easily blown up in my face and the village would have been right in thinking what the heck was I doing? But it ended blowing up in your face didn't it?

Anyway, just because a wolf gets caught taking a risk, doesn't make him/her careless. It was a bold play and the wolf got caught. I bet you if McCaber, went to the end, as the last wolf you wouldn't all be calling it a careless play, you would be babbling on about how bold and clever it was. But, I think he's been caught, and since he was caught that obviously makes him a careless wolf then, right?

And I would not view my Day 2&3 votes as safe and early. They both came about half an hour before DL, and I tried to start bandwaggons against she who I knew was a wolf.~McCaber
Voting a half an hour early doesn't mean it's still not a safe vote. Maybe you are innocent and were starting a bandwagon against someone you knew was a wolf. Or is it a safe vote, because you knew the possibility of sally getting lynched on Day 2 was next to nil, and Day 3 I'd give you...moderate, there was a moderate chance sally would be lynched on Day 3? Also, sally's role being revealed would hopefully propel you into the "undoubtedly known innocent" category.

McCaber, ok then, you got a good record, so let's hear some more thoughts on who you think is a wolf.
