The instant we find a wolf not in my target list, or a villager in it, I get to start over with a fresh approach. I currently don't think that'll happen, but I acknowledge that a day and a half of evidence isn't much.
The worst kind of theory is one that can always be explained away and adjusted without actually changing your mind on anything.
QFE. That is exactly why I want PB lynched.

It's also true that if I'm right, it's largely due to luck.

You want PB lynched to prove your theory? What theory is that? There's no point keeping it secret now.

I've got to agree with uberfish, here. Unless we have a big change, your theory is likely to die with you. Especially if it's different than my theory, it'd be nice to have an alternate take to start from in the event I'm proven wrong.

Exactly. And PB is the highest candidate on my list. Although to add I don't have 5 secure candidates. Forme I have 8 people with PB beeing the testing-dummy if you like.
If he turns out to be a villager I can scrab my theory. If he is a wolf I feel confident enough for the next 2. But it looks like he might avoid the noose again.

What does he do that seems positive to you?
Genuine question.
I found all the voters on MJW incredibly suspicious, as they lynched a candidate some people voted for meta-game reasons and were excused for it. Rowain was the only person to hop off the MJW vote, which was as safe as a vote as you could make. This was the positive vibe.
So I took a chance and followed his day 2 plan, I think he was trying to catch the voters who jumped off you PB and if none did, well you would provide positive villager info even as a villager. However I was not going to let Selrahc slide, a MJW voter, and so I switched before it became a pb-novice referendum.

So it's either Rowain or Selrahc. I don't care much for either of the two, so I'm basically... what's that word?
Indifferent.
(Thank you google translator.)
As much I'd like to remain on the fence on this one for that reason, that's illogical, since every abstaining villager will effectivively increase the value of each werewolf vote.
I've advocated to lynch novice, and he's voting for Rowain, so lets check how much our mayor's judgement is really worth since you want to let him live.

Still a tie, since Rowain should soon switch for Selrahc
