It was a longer day I thought it would be but I'm finally back...

Just a few comments after a quick read.

I see Brinn has a point: Izzy and Inzil could very well be innocents looking at their voting. But I must say there is a small "but" involved and that is Brinn's innocence.

If Brinn is a wolf it meant that two wolves were facing a lynch and I could see why the third wolf would rather have Brinn around than Glirdy who was clearly arousing suspicion left and right.

Looking at the "independent" (in relation to Brinn's testimony) report by Form that Nienna was hunting first Inzil and only second Mira, it would talk on behalf of Inzil's innocence.

Well enough for me for the time being, as the chance these both claims could be untrue is that we have now three wolves instead of two (it would mean we have had five wolves in a village of just 16 and I'd say that would be really unfair from Sally!) - or a very acute cobbler (which is possible even if not that believable).

So I'd believe Inzil to be innocent.

I'd also say that either Brinn and Izzy are innocents or then they both are wolves.


Coming to the issue of Glirdy then...

He was openly "trusting me" from the D1, up to being annoying - and thus screaming a wolf to me. And I think I made that clear that I thought his "rubbing me the right way" was quite the wrong way with me. So do you really think that if I was a wolf I would have just told him during the Night "oh, keep up the good work the next Day as well"? I mean really.

Lottie's vote for Glirdan is an interesting one. I have kind of liked her reasonableness thus far but her vote on Glirdy came quite out of the blue. He was in her "unsure, lean innocent" group in a list earlier yesterDay, but I didn't find any straight comments on him (didn't scroll through every page). If there was some reason, especially a reason you stated Lottie, would you enlighten us? That sure makes one wonder as I think it was clear there were not to many votes coming for trust to Glirdy yesterDay - and making an early vote for that as well (yeah, superbowl-party is a good reason, but still).

I'm more or less undecided on wilwa's vote for Glirdy. On the one hand I can understand the relationship-story, on the other I can't see why wouldn't they capitulate on that if they had a chance...

Now correct me if I miised something, but at my quick skim I found the following.


Voting for Glirdy

D1
wilwa
Brinn
Mira
(wolf)

D2
Lottie
wilwa



One thing we'd need to assess as well is when the voting was done eg. what was the situation, the general mood looking at survival of this or that person etc. We're not going to make educated guesses without these considerations - like many people vote for x as y who they think is very good seems to have a host of votes enough / wolves might feel a need to vote for their companion in one situation while in another they wouldn't.

Okay. Now I need to take a break...


EDIT: no wonder... x'd with a host...
