Very true. For those too lazy to check, **Tel** made the point that the wolves seem to be killing in such a way as to keep both town factions equal, to their advantage. I pointed out that it would be to their advantage to keep the factions unequal, to further the rift within the town. And as noted, I got no response. > [@](#): > > Enter then the **Seeker** clusterfuck, and we’re up to date. Yes we are.

With 3 hours to go, looks like Seeker is dead-man walking, so we’ll know soon enough. But i will be shocked if he’s a wolf - not to beat a dead horse, but what possible value is there for the wolves? Not only a dead wolf, but we would also have a very likely read on the Testerizer. Shocked, but also as the vote won’t change, extremely hopeful he comes up wolf too. But I’m not going to pile on. I’ve made my case as to not voting for him, and will stand on principle. \*\* Vote Elendil’s Heir\*\* ---

> [@Mahaloth](#): > > I get it completely. However, have you made your case to vote for Elendil? If so, can you link to it? I realize this is an anti-town thing to do, but given being stuck w/ family on vacation and as I’ve previously said this week ain’t good, I can’t go back and find everything that points me to him right now. And i’ll admit it’s as much ‘vibe’ as anything else. But from his posts I see virtually nothing of substance, a lot of me-too-ism, not responding to direct questions. And I still go back to his admittance of being a farmer way back at the beginning of the game. Seems like Elendil is being very circumspect in what he is saying - except when he wants to throw out something that might paint him as a townie. Circumspect \<\> “hey, I’m a farmer” But again, nothing concrete. He’s just one of the three that (outside of Telcontar) I mentioned yesterday. Will try to post more prior to vote finality, but am heading to a family breakfast. ---

No one seems to want to join me in voting for Tel. I still think its a bad idea to lynch Seeker. so I’m going to rely on my case in #776 and switch my vote from number 2 on my list to number 3 and Untove Telcontar Vote EH ---

This whole Seeker thing has set my brain askew. He’s going down for sure, it looks like. I am equally convinced he’s a lying townie or a nutso wolf, but I can’t help but think that a nutso wolf would have at some point been told by his colleagues to reign it in. Will the town be better off without Seeker? Almost certainly. But we are so perilously close to LyLo… If Seeker is indeed a wolf I’ll be thrilled, but I’ll be surprised. In the spirit of following my own advice: I have been suspicious of Elendil for a long time, and I see he’s got a few votes now. At this point, forty minutes before the deadline, I suppose this is a protest vote, really. **unvote Seeker vote Elendil’s Heir** ---

Sorry, I missed this with my read this morning. > [@DaphneBlack](#): > > MHaye, you do know Seeker claimed Farmer, right? Why do you say you’ll be disappointed if he turns up rancher? Because it will give us less information than either a Wolf or Farmer death. Seeker’s claims mean I simply don’t trust _either_ of them until he’s dead and Pedescribe verifies them. ---

Ah, I see – I thought you were misremembering (and considering other ‘issues’ you’ve had, that would have been odd). It would be even weirder if a town Seeker claimed Farmer and was actually a rancher…oy. You don’t trust either of who? ---
