Cailín has just left Hobbiton.
I have little time, so just a few quick reactions.

Hmm yeah, you might interpret it either way. By knowing more, I meant knowing the identity of the wolves, while clearly the Seers also know more as they know each other and the true identity of at least two other players.

Just for clarification, dear Prophet, I assume that if the Seers dream of a Lover, they shall only know whether s/he is an Ordo or wolf and not learn of their secret relationship?

Why so, Gurthang? Ang obviously knew no more than any other ord - do you mean he might have inadvertantly stumbled on the truth? A risky ploy to lynch him, surely as the trail leads so obviously back to Kath.
I also, as I stated before, do not really believe Kath to be guilty. If indeed Ang was suspected to be a Seer with a lucky dream, surely the wolves would have thought he'd have voted for Kath. It seems too obvious a set up.

In retrospect, Anguirel was maybe killed for his noble efforts to save Garin.

Quote:
If an innocent ord spots what he thinks is suspicious pairwork, is it a good idea to bring this up publicly? Might this not alert the wolves to the identity of the Seer pair?
If an ord is sure of their findings, better keep quiet. The same goes for identifying the Lover pair - if neither of them is a wolf, likely we have found the Seers. I shall not change my views: the werewolves are the main threat, not these star-crossed Lovers. If we bring down all wolves, we will find them sooner or later.

Lhuna has been under a bit of suspicion because of her 'noble' vote. I usually suspect wolves to vote early on Day 1 to avoid getting caught up in tallying scores and giving innocents the final blow. I'm not really sure how I feel about Lhuna, and she seems different somehow. However, she was recently a first Day lynchee, if we're going to bring up other legendary werewolf stories anyway, which might explain her being a bit more careful.

I still think he's innocent, just being Nilp to a T. Sure, Lalaith has a point that he could pull off a bluff like that, but right now I believe he's innocent.
Lhuna, TGWBS had already announced he would be pulling a Nilp. So did Farael. Not doing it would make them look more suspicious, which is precisely why I am uncomfortable concerning Farael right now. He might have been very relieved he did not need to be suicidal after all. And as to the short one, his act doesn't make him look better nor worse.

He said so somewhere. Can't just remember when, but I'm sure he said so.
