So since the game isn't over now, there must only be one wolf left. Since only four players remain, we would lose right now if there were two wolves. But this is definitely our last chance.
And since it is our last chance, would the remaining Seer or Psychic please step forward? I find it hard to believe any one of us remaining has enough reason to trust the others, so a private message is most likely out of the question. But if you trust me, you can send me a message I suppose.
Let's update the chart, shall we?

So do you all remember when I said to look for false reasoning? For mistakes? Well, last turn I didn't vote for the one I really wanted to. All of that real-life stuff about
esperare is actually cancelled out by another real-life occurrence that I didn't tell you about. But if the two of us voted against the same player, that probably would have vindicated that player in the minds of our suspectors.
So I put together the evidence so far and tried to make it point at
esperare. But I actually think she's innocent. By the way, if I had ever managed to get more than just me and
dragonslayer making big long accusations, you'd be able to figure out who was reasoning falsely. Bending the evidence. Look out for that in future games, I suppose.
And of course I know that I'm innocent. As is pretty plain for all to have seen, I've been suspicious of
dragonslayer right up until
bubblegumfrog was killed. I think it shouldn't be hard to believe that I was going to vote against
fluffy because
dragonslayer ruled her out specifically. And when
dragonslayer voted against
fluffy I was definitely thrown off. So honestly I just latched on to the only other person who had been accused. It seemed to make sense for the story.
As for
alind, I think it's pretty telling that when
fluffy was up against the wall, about to be voted off, she decided to vote against
alind. The known wolf just happened to pick that one player out of all the rest, that one player who had basically the same level of suspicion as all the others. Why not vote against
dragonslayer, the one who was accusing everyone, acting suspiciously, and had just voted against her without any explanation? Why not vote against the inactives, which seemed to be everyone's consensus if it was "too much of a guessing game" as
fluffy herself admitted? I think
fluffy just picked a random innocent. Why cast the first vote against a fellow werewolf?
I admit my reasoning against
dragonslayer was pretty antithetical to my reasoning about
fluffy's vote. The former was informed mostly by my existing distrust of
dragonslayer. The shock of the unexplained decision left me little time to reorient myself. At the same time, I thought I had caught
dragonslayer backpedaling on his defense, hoping to cast himself obviously innocent.
fluffy, however, had no reason to backpedal. And this time I'm not being blindsided by a sudden change, just carrying the emotional momentum of my suspicion.
alind, I think, is innocent.
So let's move on to
hitashi. Here's what I said about her yesterday:
That said, my suspicions are leveled between
esperare and
hitashisukkymotor right now. The latter because, well, she didn't vote and story-wise she would have been close to the known wolf. But
fluffy tried to backhandedly implicate her, which was probably meant to sow enough confusion for us to vote her off. She can probably be ruled out.
Funny thing is, I couldn't think of any good reasons to rule her out. Of course whatever
fluffy said can't be trusted. It was probably just meant to sow enough confusion that we couldn't agree on one person. And of course
nobody can ever be ruled out.
And what was
hitashi's reaction when I said she could be ruled out? To vote against me. Well that sure does smack of indifference. Of course she saw the obvious fact that I brought up for
dragonslayer's benefit: between nightfall and the wolf attack,
hitashi chimed in right before Tiger came back saying she'd finally been contacted.
Let's also remember what Tiger said about our characters' backstories:
However that does not mean that it is irrelevant...you have eye witness accounts of who was where and with whom...all of which are factual, right up until the narration ends...what happened next remains to be seen. It is up to the players to establish their alibis or lie convincingly enough for everyone to believe them if they are the guilty parties. That is the nature of the game!\
So we know also that
fluffy and
hitashi were living in the same building. Between that, the backlash against me voting to spare her, the timing of her post before
bubblegumfrog's death, and
alind's likely innocence, I believe I have enough evidence to say with certainty who is the last werewolf.
I vote to execute HITASHI.
