Though I believe there would be a bit more urgency for everyone to vote in this one as opposed to the previous two. [giggle] Do you even care what the outcome is?

Oh, after a fashion. But one knows the odds, and had one a choice in the matter, it's a bet only worth taking in a rigged game, is it not? Desmond has made his suspicion of both of us quite clear, nor is there much great hope of persuading Shura to one's side. In the best case, one of those two is a wolf, and the others may prove open to reason, but even in that case, there's the wolf in your clue to vote with them. That is three against, most likely. There's little reason for the wolves to split their vote, either, unless favor swings unexpectedly one's way. In which case, perhaps they shall even do as much and one shall live, and the game shall go on -
Call one pragmatic, but while one does expect a fantastic time of it, it would seem to be shaping up to be a character tragedy of sorts: brought down by one's own flaws.
Someone who was concerned about dying would probably want to put off their clue if they thought they didn't stand a chance as it were. But I suppose you've made it clear enough that you're not.
It is not a true death, and no, one has little concern for it otherwise. As it is, this is but pain. One has little fear for that.
But it is natural for one to prefer pursue one's own clue. One does have one's thoughts on yours, but can only be sure of one's own. It is the better choice, strategically. From one's own perspective, leastwise.
[shrug] I figured as much. I do wonder what it would take to concern you.
What's your own certainty worth if you know no one else shares it? I want to start with my own clue. If what you say is really true, there should be a better chance of the sheep surviving on that one, if only a little bit. ... Though, well, it might be best to wait and see who the safe sheep is.
It is hard to be sure, but it is interesting that the wolves did not eat one of us. Ash is experienced enough, but he has been less active and they could not have known that the clue would leave him in particular safe. Ankh expressed a reluctance to eat from the clue, despite the fact that the remaining sheep from the clue would be safe. It does not implicate him, precisely, but it is a consistent line of reasoning.
For the others, one has not heard over much from them yet.
That's certainly interesting. He also consistently voted on me, though at the same time if he had moved his vote to you in the ousting, there would've been a chance to possibly prevent Shura from going up. But there's a chance the wolves were that confident they could take me down, and the utter lack of votes on you could even potentially be turned against you in the next round.
Shaun's done some odd things, and his mention of still suspecting Cindy was a bit strange too, as she was a confirmed safe sheep by then. But he did mention just now that it was a mistake on his part, because he apparently forgot there were only two wolves. He did also vote in my favor during the ousting, and early on too, when his one vote could've swung the whole thing in Shura's favor.
Ben is a wild card. There's pretty much nothing to go on there.
Some of the statements Shaun is making seem almost too weird to be coming from a wolf, but I suppose you could say the same for some things Cindy said in previous rounds.
How would you respond to one placing a vote upon Ankh and asking you place one on Ben? Perhaps it is neither of them, but one agrees that Shaun's actions seem a bit odder for a wolf than a sheep. And in the end, it may be in our best interests not to put another player up who will miss the round entirely.
