Okay. I'm not sure whether this "who would you have protected were you Sam" -thing is a good idea or not. If everyone says they would have protected Lhuna (well, she was the only person based on yesterDay one could have a reason to try and heal, others I think would have been more or less shots in the dark) and Sam goes along saying the same truthfully, then we know that Lhuna is innocent toDay whether stinged on N1 or not. That would be good.

But the downside is that if Sam didn't try to heal Lhuna last Night for whichever reason he had he's now in trouble. Saying he tried to heal Lhuna gives us a possibly misleading confidence that Lhuna is a "known innocent", but giving another name would make him stand out from the others in a way Sam wouldn't probably like to.

I think we read the rules differently here. I think Sam has a right to try to heal someone every D/N -cycle + he acts as a ranger during the Night. Here is the rule:

He may use this one chance at any time between the Dawn following an attack and the Dawn at which a victim would turn into one of Shelob’s children. This second chance to save someone will be in addition to regular Nightly save until such time as it would be too easy for him to prevent Shelob’s attacks entirely (which I will be happy to discuss with the village).
So, Sam does two things, plays the ranger and the healer, both of them unlimited times but only once in a D/N cycle. Is this correct, Sally?

On another thought. There was one "prime time" discussion set while I slept and what you guys managed to do was one page of banter and tp beating Zaphord Beeblebrox characterwise.

Sadly I'm not able to hang around right now, but I will be back later and will try to do something better than this.

(There is an ice hockey world championships match between Finland and Slovakia beginning three hours from the DL, but I'm not that enthusiast ice hockey fan I'd need to concentrate on it the whole game, but it will certainly distract me for a while... )
