Well, I have my suspicions someone is going to have a field day with my epic fail yesterDay, but I'll say it off the bat: Pitchwife looked like a wolf to me, probably because he was nervous, probably because he was gifted. Actually, he was gifted in both games he's played, and I was wondering in the back of my head whether he was just a cautious/jumpy type of player who I would always suspect - but I guess the giftedness explains it.

Actually, though, right after the narration went up I was kicking myself for two reasons - getting the seer lynched (I blame myself, I was the first to go after him - not that the voting shouldn't be analyzed, of course), but because phantom once more made me look like a fool - this time by saying things, close to the deadline, that suggest he had Pitchwife figured for a likely gifted (I mean the bit about the flow going against him when he couldn't return, etc.)
Then it occurred to me - if he thought he was gifted, why didn't he save him when he could? Why make comments, and a throwaway vote, seemingly designed to make himself look good without saving Pitch? And who, after all, would be most likely to consider a nervous player gifted rather than wolfish?
Now, phantom can just say he was being considerate, and he can say he had no idea about Pitch's role, and maybe it would be true, too. But I wouldn't expect phantom to make any obvious blunders anyway - if we catch an evil phantom, it will be on the subtleties. Anyway, that's what I thought of his behavior - go back and look yourselves, make up your own minds. I also felt as if he were trying to frame me, but that may be purely subjective... I thought, though, it couldn't hurt to throw these thoughts out there.

Whew... that said... I'd like to analyze the voting and the kills a bit... right now my hand hurts and typing is torture, though, so it'll be a little while.

EDIT: X'd with everybody.
