Anyway, I went through all of
Boro's posts and I don't know what to think of him. The best would be to hear from him, in any case.
I have also read through yesterDay and tried to focus on the
Boro-Cobbler situation, and what people said about that - see above, I think it might be helpful to consider how WWs would act towards somebody who was not the Cobbler (and the question remains, who he is, of course), but who was suspected of being the Cobbler (and we can't know whether the WWs, or some of them, did not think him a Cobbler too). Although depending who you think the WWs are, the situation may look different... let's see:
Basically the idea of
Boro being the cobbler emerged, and once again is an interesting proof of the "herd mentality" (of which I was a part), from
Agan's thought in her post #464 (page 12, as are the following):

Which is actually moving from words to deeds - rather alarming, in itself. Especially if
Boro is innocent and the WWs knew he is not the Cobbler, then
skip-wolf could be here calling for the possibility of getting rid of
Boro. Or something.
Then goes me (duh! Mesa not like my early yesterDay-conclusions at all, except for the thing about
Mac):

And then we continued talking with more or less presuming he is one (at least from my part). Meanwhile, other players commented on that idea...

So yes, Cobbler seems the most likely. And according to Agan's math (Math?!? she must be a wolf! ) lynching the Cobbler does no good, so we leave him be.

At that point,
Rikae still kept asking him questions as if everything was normal, which makes me think that it supports her innocence.
Pitch himself had said very little of
Boro, in the beginning only mentioned him among people he did not suspect earlier and starts to suspect now.
For the rest of the Day, especially
Mac acted in the way as if
Boro's cobblerism was set in stone.
What to conclude?
Mac's behavior towards the presumed Cobbler makes me wonder the most, he was essentially the one dismissing
Boro completely; I also find a bit alarming that toDay all of a sudden (in contrary to his previous fierceness) he did not find it worth it to make a single remark about it.
What I am looking forward to the most is to hear from
Boro himself, like I said, and what he has to say on the matter. And if you are innocent,
Boro, I bid thee to seriously make the effort and post.
