Schmidty, I get switching the vote. The uncontested runup on mckerney had me very, very nervous as well. I just would prefer that if you were switching votes that you were joining me on Tyrith instead of putting me closer to the chopping block.

That makes it 5-4, unless I missed it. Even if ardent puts a vote on hoops, hoops will probably come off tyrith and vote for mckerney. So then to get hoops lynched, we'd need to get both Path and Blade to vote him - or else, reveal the wolf boss. I don't see it happening. |

Blade, I reviewed mckerney as a vote candidate but I never quite got to the point of feeling a need to move it. I'll do it as a self-preservation measure, but the run-up on him over the course of the afternoon has me thinking we are looking at wolf/wolf standoff yet again.
Despite the fact that people don't seem to be buying into the idea of a wolf voting for Tanglewood yesterday (at least not with their votes), I still think this is a good approach. And I posted why Tyrith instead of the other three candidates, voted, and have yet to deviate from this. |

OK, I'm back now until lynch.

I wasn't picking on you necessarily, Alan, more the bandwagon in general. mck wasn't (isn't? I'm doing this in order and don't know the current tally) helping himself by giving no reasons for the vote, so I can see that, and we had mine, hoops and kinda cronins posts all at the same time questioning it, so I guess my concern of nobody defending was invalid.

Let me make sure I'm understanding you -- you're not claiming a similar role, but more that you have certain knowledge that leads you to believe Cronin, right?

I'm pretty nervous about deadline voting antics that result in me geting lynched here - don't usually find myself in this position when I'm a good guy. Usually the bad guys have to take me out themselves ...
In the event that I do get elected tonight as the sacrificial lamb, I'll just let you know that I do not expect to show up as a normal wolf - I have a role and if you are not given some hint to what it is in the death description then you can safely assume we are playing a "hidden roles" game similar to what I did with the Chuck Norris game. Team Wolf can still win the game with me out of the mix, but it isn't making the job easier. |

Still likely to switch. Haven't decided which way yet. I can't say I'm thrilled with either of the candidates and am tempted to see if any bosses need to save any humans.....

Right now I see the vote as 6-5 Mckerney leading over hoops.
Barring vote switchers, we have 2 votes not in that mix. Path is still on Tyrith, and Ardent has not voted yet. |

AlanT, I fully expect to show up as a wolf, just not a garden-variety ordinary one. I have a role and if there is any kind of role reveal on death (by lynching) then you should get that information.
Which would mean that Tanglewood was an ordinary wolf. If there is nothing special about my death scene or any kind of info revealed on my role then you can't make the assumption that Tanglewood was a normal (no role) wolf. |

Well I dont feel wild about you not voting in one group or the other as a vote on Tyrith right now is a throw away vote. If you vote for Hoops and ardent does not show up and no one else switches, it ends in a tie, which I don't like at all. If you vote for mckerney, you pretty much lock his fate without alot of switching or a duking. So in my opinion you can make things either very clear for us or very muddy. |

Cronin, I'm not sure how I can be convincing revealing the specifics on the role this late. The obvious thought process would be to see if someone else claims the role and we have less than half of the people in the room right now.
Just run through the usual roles. I would be screaming bloody murder right now if I was the seer. Pretty much anything else among the standard roles is expendable at this stage ... |

I dont really usually like coaxing people to come out with their roles, but right now you look to have a 50/50 chance of being lynched... So if there was a time to try to convince people, this would be it. Won't affect my vote much since it is still on mckerney, and its far to convienant for him to not take much heat this late and ride it out. I'm not convinced he is bad, just he has not shown me any proof that he isnt. |

I'm not celebrating yet - still could get jagged by a vote switch.
At this moment I'm of the strong opinion that the wizard's gang tried to stick it to me at the end here. I'm obviously a little weirded out by three late switches. |

Path, from where I'm sitting you contributed your share.
Three vote switches to me in the last 30 minutes felt exciting enough, thank you very much. Ardent and AlanT shoot up my personal trust list as they had the ability to hang me at the end and did not exercise it. |

The fact that you expect the rage to be set upon you at the wizard's command makes it no less jarring, and you quickly tear Mckerney apart. Panting with exertion.. you watch his body..
No Change. A bit of fear begins to open up in your heart.. have you chosen poorly again?

I was never *on* Tyrith in the sense that you mean. I merely pointed out that it would be ballsy or odd for hoopsguy to name three random wolves on night 0. Chances are, that one of them is a wiz. The folks mentioned have posted/thought in a way that makes me somewhat comfortable they are wolves. But I don't have a circle of trust, yet. |

Hmm. I was hoping that you guys were right about mckerney. Does the fact that there was not a late switch that killed hoopsguy, just thretened him mean he's clear or that he's more likely to be dirty than ever. I;d love to hear the thoughts of those more experienced, because my head sometimes hurts when I think hard about WW.
