WWJ X: Hithlum Zydeco Blues; Hísilómë in Hísimë

[Nogrod]

It's not decent to speak bad of the dead, but I have to say Form kind of secured his own death by making his open post about Morm's innocence at the exact last minute. Happily Mith managed to change her initial last minute panic-vote on me to Glirdy (two minutes after the deadline!). That's why you Morm are still living. But Form could have played it wiser. Well, the milk is spilled already...

But it would have been a catastrophe if we would have lynched our seer ourselves and then the wolves would have taken our only known innocent. It could be worse, but it's very bad anyhow.

But yes, there were some funny things at the end of Day1.

First of all, almost no one around. I posted a summary of my thoughts just when the Brazil - France game started, about an hour before the deadline. After that, it was very quiet indeed.
- Jenny made her vote about 50 minutes before the deadline.
- Eomer asked me why do I think he has not been "substantial" 20 minutes before the deadline.
- The last ten minutes it seemed to be myself (half-time at the World Cup -game) and Form.
- Mith came in at the zero hour.

So: Why Jenny (said she might change her vote = would be around) and Eomer (he was there just 20 minutes before the end = was around) didn't take part on those last minutes? I understand that the football game might have taken a few people out from here, but the half-time started more than ten minutes before the deadline. So I make an educated guess that there were people around at the last minutes, but they just decided to stay away. They might have been innocents wishing to avoid attention, but I wouldn't rule out the possibility of at least one wolf passing the last minutes. But that also is a shame on those innocents not coming in, because - as I said - the lynch candidates were not good. The situation was just hopeless. With more people openly online, we could have made something better. Alone I had no chances to do anything.

Secondly, there was Mith's appearance & vote at exactly the deadline minute, which you can't see any more as it has been edited after the deadline. It was a vote for me, saying that it was a panic vote - and then two lines of thoughts about my Kitanna-vote as grounds for it - or something following those lines. I remember Kitanna being mentioned in it (it disappeared soon enough so I hadn't a second sight of it). Mith herself or Valesse might remember. But what actually troubles me here a bit, is that the edit reason stated in the thread (+.02 minutes) is

Reason: clear line for vote

and that basically is not the reason. The reason is that she changed her vote. I'm quite ready to put many things aside due to the last minute fervour and give the benefit of doubt in this kind of situations, but why to lie with the reason for editing? That just beats me.
