I think there is a slight contradiction between the two statements, because if it was Boromir (and Phantom) who masterminded the kill of Aganzir. . . .then basically Boromir framed him self!

Nope. We were trying to make the kill look attractive to the Wolves. Part of that attraction is the way that the kill might be used to set people up to be lynched. So there is nothing at all contradictory about it. Boro set up Agan, most likely aware at the time that part of what would make her attractive is the fact that her kill might be used to point back at him.

His error was this- he trusted most of the villagers to be able to resist the WW counter-attack.

As far as his "trap" which caught you, I'm not sure what to say. I can't recall if he fully explained the workings of it, and that would help me know what to think. But I'm sure he's aware of the possibility that traps misfire. I wonder if his surety that he has caught someone is in part false, for some reason or another.

But I have no more time- I must go to work. Be back later.
