I do think it's fitting that the Ranger be our last Ghost since the Seer can't! Go save the village <3

Musings on the Ghost... reiterating Soriman's innocence and then using it as a pattern for the other two (or however many are left) would be a great way to prevent confusion over your meaning. I was going to use my Soriman innocent-post as a pattern for my Kath one, since her name is so much harder to clue. I spotted a whole bunch of Seer quotes when I was skimming for phrases, but don't think I wrote any of them down. ![]() And do have fun! I didn't play about much as the Ghost, but on this final Day you can hopefully find ways to make it fun. ![]() hS

If it looks like they're messing things up beyond saving, I expect to see the Doom of Mandos at some point.

Oh, thank you last wolfie, I was not looking forward to defend myself today AND try to decide who you are between Morsul, Lommy or Pitch. Although based on yesterday we may very well have to decide it here!
![]() I suspect I was annoying enough with figuring out the Ghost clues and so go Lottie! Go! What have I missed? Or are sally and Legate going to make me read 6 pages?

*dead eyebrows twitch as Morsul votes seven minutes into the Day, if the Dead even have eyebrows*
Just tell me, Sally and Legate if he's a part of your master plan.

Oh those are fantastic quotes. All 3 ghosts were well selected and get the "players of the game" for me...We'd be stumbling around in total darkness without you.

So did Pitch not have time to read/process LostLottie's "Pitch is innocent [= there are only two options]" posting, or is his suspicion of Morsul for voting quickly an attempt to draw a potential Lommywolf into unreasonable agreement with him?

This is pure speculation, but I have to say that so far Lommy's reaction to the situation looks more convincingly innocent than Morsul's. He is basically trying to list all the reasons why his behaviour looks innocent (which an actual innocent has no cause to think about in that amount of detail), which is somewhat eyebrow-raising. At the same time though, I'm aware this could just be a question of playing style and nothing to do with actual innocence or guilt. It's probably a decade since I last played with Morsul (
![]() Anyway, unless things look significantly clearer in a few hours, it might be safest if I abstain from voting again. I don't want to risk an early, uninformed vote for the wrong person at this stage. There should still be plenty of us nice dead people to counteract the two

I'll be here to vote until the very end, but I'm not sure you want that Greenie. I honestly am hoping Soriman and Pitch vote for the same person, if it's the wolf fantastic, but if not well at least it went down to the very end and kudos to the final wolf.
The 2 most suspicious things I've seen this game: 1. Legate seemingly attaching his suspicions to "Huey + 1" 2 days in a row. I backed off on Day 3 with the information that there had to be at least 1 wolf in "Morsul, sally, and Pitch." Then Day 4 his Kath analysis I didn't catch any hints of trying to steer guilt or innocence towards any one person or another. I thought it was likely Kath had dreamed of me the night before, because of her post the next day, but I wasn't at all going to start harping on that, because that's exactly what I would have done if I was a wolf. ![]() 2. Lommy's "let's lynch Hui to find out what Boro and Legate are up to," which then when she voted for Legate, I thought "ok this is almost the same, and now fantastic Legate and Pitch are probably ordos which means Lommy and Morsul successfully put up 2 innocents to lynch." But then it turns out Legate's a wolf so now was Morsul's push towards "let the dead decide" towards the end on the belief that you still would have voted for Pitch and Lommy's vote for Legate threw him off? The only way I can think of for Lommy to do a wolf-on-wolf vote is if she expected to be the one lynched yesterday, instead of Legate, which I can see because I think Pitch would have voted for her if he wasn't just trying to save himself, and she may have assumed I was going to be gunning after her. But this is all messed up because I'm just enamored that she's arguing with a dead person (me) as if she doesn't argue with herself enough as it is. ![]()

So from Morsul, the 'vote Lommy to make it even' concept is a perfect way to stop Soriman from voting Morsul - which would have let the Dead lynch him! Except... it's clear there was a lot of confusion over the voting rules, because Pitch said the same thing. So it could just be an honest mistake by Morsul. Re: Lommy voting for Legate - agreed that's not a great strategy for a wolf pair at endgame, but Pitch already had a vote on him, and the suspicion of the Dead (well, of the Ghost). She could have been hoping that it would come down to a tie, and the Dead would vote for Pitch - and if that didn't happen, she would have great cover for the last Day, because she just killed her packmate. Legate voted Pitch, right? So either a tie or a straight Pitch-vote was pretty decent odds. It would have been easy to plan "I'll vote you, you join the strongest bandwagon" the Night before. hS

Besides, given that "here are two quotes, one contains 'morsel' and the other 'lomin'" has been interpreted as "Morsul is the Black Death", I'm pretty sure the Ghost trying to share a suspicion would be taken and twisted into a pretzel. Honestly, this constant effort to prod the Ghost into posting something complicated and easy to misunderstand (why Soriman is confirmed innocent, who the Dead are inclined to suspect) is the thing that makes me most suspicious of Lommy. It seems like such a perfect Wolf play - to be able to point at a vague Ghostpost and say 'don't listen to me, listen to the unquiet dead!'. Quote:

I notice that Sally is trying to muddy the waters, but it's probably wisest to ignore her (as she'd be just as likely to bluff as to double-bluff and it's giving me a headache). I still think a Morswolf would make more sense than a Lomwolf, but since I'm generally clueless about Morsul and notoriously bad at reading Lommy (which is ironic, I know), I don't know to what extent I should be trusted with this. In fact, I'm quite happy to be going to sleep now and leaving it into your capable hands. Goodnight, and see you all on the other side ![]()

Er.
With Greenie gone and Lottie haunting, there are now six people in the Dead Thread. First to three votes here gets our vote among the Living. There are two dead wolves who know who to vote for, and will jump on the first wrong vote here. We are not supposed to have to play Deadline Chicken after we die! hS

I mean, unless it becomes clear in the next (*looks at clock*) two hours, we're clueless as to whether it's Morsul or Lommy--I go back and forth, myself. What if we just let the Living decide? Obviously, it the Wolves post something in the waning minutes, we should probably jump on that, but otherwise?

I don’t think we can abstain - that just gives the wolves the voting power. So... I dunno, it entirely depends on who's going to be around. Kath may already be gone, which would make a wrong vote from you a sure kill for the wolves. Or maybe the wolves are asleep and we've nothing to worry about! hS
