The first thing that caught my eye was how Rikae jumped on Ang at the get-go. He had posted once, and it seems like a pretty harmless post, and all of a sudden Rikae (and Lalwende, actually) are proposing conspiracy theories between him, Gil, Celuien, and Boro (Interestingly enough, those other three are now dead and innocent...), and she votes for him - which I also don't understand since she also says "I'll be back before the deadline." Which she was, at which point she switched to Volo - which seemed almost like a knee-jerk reaction. She repeated this on Day 2 - vote early, come back and change the vote. In fact, this could have ended badly since she did not have a vote to change when Durelin declared herself. If Rikae was a wolf, this would actually be a clever strategy - no one would be able to blame her for not changing a vote that she wouldn't want to change anyway.

I don't notice anything interesting about Ang until he starts campaigning against Volo. I still think that this post of his was rather logical... except that I don't really think that Volo's posts before Ang's post are all that suspicious - it's the ones that came after. But his accusation wouldn't really look so suspicious if not for the fact that he decided Volo really wasn't that suspicious after all when he started attracting more votes.

Okay, this kind of died as I started looking at posts and not writing anything down.

But one thing I did notice was that while Rikae had been keeping up a pretty steady suspicion for Ang until about 2/3 of the way through yesterDay, Ang hardly mentions her at all, and when he does go through everyone, he's pretty vague about her.

I'm starting to wonder if I'm not trying to force it here. I'm not sure anymore that my suspcions of Ang are founded. Rikae, I'm still not sure about. There's not a lot of concrete evidence; it's mostly gut feeling - and those can be dangerous, both to ignore and to follow.
