Captain Carrot I think it’s obvious that **Ogre** is a werewolf. I mean, “Ogre”? I don’t trust 'em. I don’t trust 'em at all. Then there’s **Rubystreak**. What exactly is making those streaks, huh? Could it be _the blood of innocent villagers_? And those who are trying to trick us by having other beasts in their names, **hocow** , **Kat** , **MadTheSwine** , maybe even **sturmhauke** if that’s just some furrin spelling of a good 'Merkin word. I’ve got my eye on you all. ---

[QUOTE=jsgoddess] Then there’s **Rubystreak**. What exactly is making those streaks, huh? Could it be _the blood of innocent villagers_? [/QUOTE] This is one of those incidents like when someone farts, they automatically turn around and say to someone else, “Hey, why’d you fart? Ewwww!” Awfully quick to point the finger, eh **jsgoddess**? What’s that under your fingernails? ---

[QUOTE=Rubystreak] What’s that under your fingernails? [/QUOTE] Hot sauce! It was 10 cent wing night at Buffalo Wild Wings. Obviously, there’s no way a werewolf, with their sense of smell, could stand to eat hot wings. ---

I think it should be obvious from my handle and location that I have experience in hysterical mob reactions to supernatural threats. Therefore I think likely candidates are: **jsgoddess** Goddess? That’s pagan talk. She’s a witch! That’s close enough! **ComeToTheDarkSideWeHaveCookies** Obviously sent by the devil to tempt us. Or **Enginerd** , who I saw with a Chinese menu in his hand Walking through the streets of Soho in the rain He was looking for a place called Lee Ho Fook’s Going to get himself a big dish of beef chow mein ---

Blatant lies - I’ve never even been to London! Still, I’ve been doing some research on Werewolves. The legend seems to date back to [15th century Italy](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/member.php) - that can’t be a coincidence… and take a look at that biography. Somebody get a rope! And the natural ally of **Menocchio** the miller would, of course, be our own **Miller**. Werewolves are a lot of things, but subtle ain’t one of 'em. ---

[QUOTE=One And Only Wanderers] It’s obvious that we have a known werewolf lover amongst us I want to vote for Captain Carrot! [/QUOTE] The first person to cast a vote is a Wanderer.

[random.org](http://random.org) commands me to vote for Miller. So i shall be. There’s a common technique that we could use here. Several people, though not everyone, should throw out a random vote. The Seer, if he/she found a bad guy, will throw out a vote for that person. If they found a good guy, don’t random vote. That way, if you die before telling us your results, we can use those breadcrumbs to get your results. Have at it! ---

[QUOTE=JSexton] [random.org](http://random.org) commands me to vote for Miller. So i shall be. [/QUOTE] Well, in that case, I accuse [random.org](http://random.org) of being the werewolf! What? Oh. Okay, instead, I think it’s **jsgoddess**. That sounds like a hippie name. Hippies have long hair. Werewolves have long hair. Ergo, **jsgoddess** is the werewolf!
