Thoughts, questions, and concerns.

The Great Boro/Tummy Alliance
You know what? Say I that I buy it. They're drawing fire. They want to see who jumps on their open declaration and raises the suspicion. One might get lynched but then the other will take up the charge the next Day and flush out all the WWs. Sweet.

And if they're wolves, you know, then it's just going to be inevitable. I'll be smoking a cigar and they'll break into my room and I'll gruff, "It was only a matter of time" before they throw me out a window. (Qui custodiet ipsos custodes?) I joke, because I have no idea what this alliance does for them as wolves, other than allow them to work together openly, which they've pretty much been doing anyway.

I didn't catch the seer ploys put out by either of them, though. The quotes that they brought up seemed to me to be not that significant, and now they have complete deniability for anything that they say because they can just go, "It's a ploy! Jeez,Ilya, shut up and let us help the village, why don't you?" That gives me pause. They've been going after those who're questioning them with a snideness, and it's that tone more than anything that makes y'all seem arrogant and suspicious. Look, guys, be patient. I don't get it. I don't get what this gets us if you're innocent other than one of you lynched and the other silenced during the Night. If you want me to trust you, and I'm inclined to, just try and be a little patient with us, is all.

I'm not ready to lead either one of them to the oaks quite yet. I want to see how this develops.

Ordinary People
I have a feeling Gil's not playing anymore. That, or he's the ultimate submarine!
Lommy keeps speaking sense.
Sally, I don't have a read on yet.
Everything Kath has said feels on the level.
Rune, too, feels genuine.
So does Greenie.

Boys Becoming Men, Men Becoming Wolves
My initial, gut suspicions were of Agan, Brinn, Morm, and Nerwen. Even though I've already been proven wrong, they still hold. I'm less suspicious of Brinn, though, and more of the other two.
Shasta jumped on The Alliance with a lot of relish today.
Nogrod has phrased things in ways that are weird. I think the concerns raised about a "lynching distraction" are legit, whether Nog's a concerned citizen or a wolf trying to take the high road. I dunno which.
Gwath, while discussion is a good thing, there ought to be an aim when one tries to direct it. Maybe it's just the way you phrased the sentence, but it sounded like you wanted to further the distraction without planting a flag on either side.

I've no idea what I want to do about reps. I'd like to see what Rune would bring to it, since he hasn't had a turn yet, and I want to see more of Kath. I want to see more of Shasta, but I'm not sure if I can trust him, so I don't want to vote for him, and then there's Uncle Boro and T.P. John Bull over there, trying to show us they're fighting the good fight...I need some time away from the screen and mug of strong tea to think about it.

Edit: [b][b]/ is not the right code.
